I anticipate the match between Manchester united and Tottenham today and my pick is for Manchester united to win but then I'm very much aware that Tottenham in recent times are back on their feet and are playing really well but then traveling to old Trafford may be a disadvantage for them because the red devils will try to defend their home as they have lost so much at home this season but I'm very sure Tottenham Will be able to get at least a goal before the end of the game today..

Of Bruno and honjlud will be able to make good moves and some creativity around the Frontline I'm sure they will be able to break through the defense of Tottenham.

This match looks like it will be tight for United, because Spurs are not an easy team to beat. however, I am quite sure that Ten Hag will ensure that his team tries to show their best performance, especially since this match is being held at United's home ground at Old Tranfford. even though United's performance is unstable, especially in their last five matches, United have only been able to achieve one win. in this match, Ten Hag will try to get full points to improve their ranking which is currently in 9th position. and it seems that Ten Hag will not change the pattern with his 4-2-3-1. however, the status of the player who fills the pivot position is still in doubt. so, maybe there is a change in the players being played.

Meanwhile, Spurs, their performance is clearly more consistent when compared to the home team. in the 5 matches they played, Tottenham only lost when they visited Brighton. however, Spurs will not be strengthened by several of their core players in this match. some of the players, like Son, took part in the Asian Cup. and several of them are still injured. Likewise with United, several players are doubtful, including Onana. well, Ten Hag should have taken advantage of Spurs' condition, which was without several of its core players. so, The Red Devil maximized to get full points. plus, improving their ranking to approach the top four of the Premier League. but make no mistake, Spurs are also targeting full points to shift Arsenal's position. referring to the betting market, United with @2.03 and Spurs @3.20. in this match, United is slightly superior. my estimate is that Ten Hag will be able to bring his team to full points over Spurs with a narrow score difference.

I just discovered a friend's personality, who in real life is very thrift and very conservative but once he played online in casinos he became very reckless and loved to play the risks because for him when it comes to gambling if you cannot take a risk you don't have a chance to win big, that's a big contrast from his real personality for him he has alter ego when it comes to gambling, so his outlook and decision is very much different when playing.

How about you Are you gambling in a way that is very different from your true personality,
~~

I'm really not surprised based on your story in this thread, in fact there are many types of people like the ones you describe and we can meet such things from any friend. one of them, like the personality from the other side of what happened to your friend. in real life, a person can discipline himself in any form. whether it's work, having regular financial management, being frugal, even your friend is someone who is very conservative. but on the other hand, it is as if your friend has a different personality that is not like what you know or his habits are different and unusual in certain things. the question is, is this related to the ego factor that you call an alter ego when it comes to gambling? or, something that he cannot control, such as habits that he has mastered with his discipline. IMO, the answer will vary greatly depending on the individual.

Actually, I don't know your friends so I'm not measuring based on my personal point of view. I'm just assuming, based on what you said in this thread. I can take another example, let's say my friend has a personality like your friend. but at the same time, he finds it difficult to control himself when faced with women. for example, my friend, who is usually frugal, suddenly became generous and didn't think about anything else except his focus on the woman in front of him. even though the cases are different, the essence remains the same. in essence, we feel that we cannot always fully master everything and be able to control it. especially those related to gambling, which involves many aspects. whether it's entertainment, fun, even the lure of high winning rewards. referring to your question, I didn't even think about it at all. what I do is, everything must go smoothly and in balance. thus, I rarely have serious problems due to the gambling that I enjoy and problems in the family from a financial perspective. btw, what happened to your friend, IMO, where he couldn't control himself over the gambling he did. It's not just an ego problem, but it's more complex than that. and, only your friend really knows what happened and what he actually did.

The Dortmund vs Darmstadt match has started and has entered the middle of the second half with the score 1 - 0 and the advantage is on Dortmund's side, even though basically Dortmund is in an unsatisfactory performance this season by only being able to stay in the top five of the standings and in five matches In the end they were only able to achieve one win, three draws and one defeat. On the other hand, I think this is a fairly easy match for Dortmund, although any result is still possible at the end of the match, but I think they can take advantage of any situation on the pitch when they are on the field. facing a team that is at the bottom of the standings, which means Darmstadt's performance is very bad this season, and clearly I think there is absolutely no reason for Dortmund not to be able to get the full three points in this match, because firstly this is a fairly easy match for them and secondly, however, they have to move up to catch Leipzig's position with a difference of 3 points. So I hope Dortmund can maintain its lead or increase the number of goals until the final minute.

Dortmund should win in this match, because after all the two teams have a significant gap both based on player depth and standings ranking. Damstadt is a team in the relegation zone, even though the match was played at their own headquarters, it was difficult to match the resistance of Edin Terzic's team. as proven, Dortmund overthrew Damstadt with a final score of 0-3. even though previously Dortmund were unable to get full points in the last 4 matches, at least this victory should be a momentum for Dortmund to continue winning match after match.

Apart from that, Terzic still has problems that he must overcome on his front lines. in this match, Niclas Fullkrug, who was relied on, was unable to score a goal. however, their two wingers played quite well. apart from Julian Brandt and Marco Reus who found the net for Damstadt, Youssaufa Moukoko also contributed in this match by scoring one goal. at least, that's good enough for him who is rarely given minutes of playing time and has never been the main starter in his 9 matches with Dortmund. in this match, it should be an opportunity for him to get more playing minutes. after all, the goal he scored was quite good. now Dortmund is only 3 points behind Leipzig, so there is a lot of homework for Terzic, especially to sharpen his pure striker in terms of scoring goals.
Next week, Dortmund will play an away match against Koln, they should be able to get three points considering that the two teams have a gap. meanwhile, Leipzig will play quite a tough match even though they are playing at their own headquarters when they host the match against Leverkusen. in essence, Edin Terzic's squad has not been able to show its best consistency. so, they still have to improve in order to return to their position in the top four of the Bundesliga standings.

I am also very confused about what Sevilla has experienced since last season until this season, because when Sevilla managed to get the European League trophy last season while their local league was not good enough it raised big questions. So it is quite possible that this is due to the departure of their old coach, Diego Alonso, and at the moment Sevilla seems to have really sunk to the point where it seems quite difficult to recover from their bad results so far.

IMO, there are many factors that cause this and one of them is that the Sevilla players are not playing well. Moreover, as far as I know, this team always relies on players aged 30+, some of whom are Rakitic, Sergio Ramos, Acuna, Jesus Navas and Nemaja. for some of the young players they have, they don't really stand out in their game, talent and skill. so it's natural, if the results are like what we see now.  If I can be honest, based on my personal point of view, the Europa League trophy that Sevilla won last season could not be separated from luck, they were lucky with an ugly win and were able to win the title in the Europa League competition. Coincidentally, their opponent in the final was AS Roma. at the same time, Sevilla was only able to finish in 12th place last season. this season, their performance has really underperformed. in fact, Sevilla has tried to replace three coaches. the fact is that they have not experienced an improvement in their performance or ranking on the standings, especially now that their position is in danger of dropping into the red zone. this shouldn't be a coach problem, in fact Sevilla has replaced 3 coaches in half a season, please correct me if I'm wrong. IMO, the problem is the players. in fact, Sevilla does not have sufficient player depth to be able to compete competitively.

Lens actually gave Paris Saint Germaine a good run for their money last season and were very close to winning the French league ahead of PSG but narrowly lost the battle to the eventual champions by just one point. This season, they've been a total shadow of the Lens team we saw last campaign and I don't even think they're gonna get into the top four of the French league at the end of the season.
Paris Saint Germaine are currently in a very impressive run and against Lens, I still expect them to win the game and grab all three points. The knockout stages of the UEFA champions league competition will kick off next month and Paris Saint Germaine are keen on further extending their lead at the top of the league table so that league games wouldn't be too important to them when the UEFA champions league competition returns in February.

Last season, one of the factors that made Lens perform quite well was because they didn't have a busy competition schedule. their focus is only on Ligue 1, so it's natural that they can always maximize their performance. in fact, they were able to overtake Marseille last season. this season Lens has to distribute its focus on several competitions, it seems that Lens is having a very difficult time performing with the same performance as last season. apart from several players leaving, the newcomers seem to need time to adapt. this season's competition started badly, but gradually their performance improved. at least, quite safe from the red zone and is now in 8th place. as for Paris Saint-Germani, they have played 13 matches without defeat after losing to Nice.

On paper, PSG is superior in this meeting which will be held tomorrow. this is natural, because PSG has much more competitive depth than Lens. but we'll see, when Lens play their match when they host PSG at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, Lens' headquarters. at the very least, Haise is targeting a draw in this match. because to overthrow PSG currently with its quite impressive positive trend in Ligue 1, will be quite a difficult challenge for the home team. meanwhile for Luiz Enrique's squad, this victory is also important for them. at least, you have said one factor in this post..PSG will try as hard as possible to achieve every win in their domestic league so they can focus on the Champions League. moreover, in other matches, Nice lost to Rennes and Monaco also lost to Reims. full points will benefit PSG, to further widen the points gap with teams below their ranking.

Manchester city come back was really an epic one and I really enjoyed every bit of their play, although I felt disappointed in the first half when they were two goals behind, I for once almost felt like Newcastle was going to get a draw by the end of the game because a two goals lewd ahead was so much to cover up for at once.

Newcastle did played well, their performance was okay as compared to the decline they were already having recently but then by the second half of the game when Manchester city got an equalizer all hope was restored and again I believed it's possible three points will be secured by the end of the game , de bruyne getting a goal in this game as a super sub is an indication that he's got a lot to do with the progress of this team, I'm hopeful he's strong enough even tho he's injury prone, he will be able to deliver some more goals and get Manchester city ahead as they should be.

To be honest, I didn't watch the match between the two teams but it looks like the match was quite interesting if I refer to the highlights of the match between Newcastle versus Manchester City. based on statistics, City controlled 73% of ball possession, had 27 attempted shots, 11 shots on target, 1 shot hit the post. meanwhile, the home team actually played quite well against City, especially in the first half. Newcastle had 5 opportunities to counterattack, but only managed to use 2 of them to score goals. apart from that, Newcastle also had several opportunities even though Manchester City controlled the match. the introduction of De Brunye to replace Silva, produced results and made the score draw 2-2. in the early minutes of extra time, Manchester City was able to comeback by winning this match and the final goal was scored by young player Oscar Bobb.

By the way, Pep Guardiola doesn't usually make substitutions, especially Bernardo Silva, whose performance is actually quite impressive. in fact, the first goal he scored in the 26th minute was brilliant. apart from that, it seems like De Bruyne is quite ready to start again in City's next match. the goal he scored in the 74th minute proved that he was definitely ready to play big matches. apart from that, De Bruyne provided one assist in this match. his presence in the City squad really contributed to this match. one more thing, I didn't expect that Pep would play his young player, Oscar Bob, who replaced Jeremy Duku. however, if you look at his performance, Duku was not optimal in this match and in fact he wasted a lot of every opportunity he had. in the end, City was able to comeback and get full points. now, City has moved up to 2nd place temporarily shifting Arsenal and Aston Villa. while Liverpool is still in first place with 45 points, only a narrow point adrift of City. meanwhile, the home team had to accept this defeat even though they had taken the lead in the first half. but nevertheless, City proved that their mentality is very strong and has been tested.

For sure, their major problem to face in this competition is definitely Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen presence in the competition, and yes, Roma is not in their form to face any these two teams, except maybe some improvement would have been done in their performance before facing any of these team, But with the experience, that José Mourinho have got when it comes to any European competition, still can manage Roma through to final possibly.

We don't need to doubt Mourinho from his coaching side, he has proven that he has brought several clubs to win titles at the most prestigious events. last season, Mourinho was able to take AS Roma to the semi-finals against Leverkusen and into the final against Sevilla. even though I don't like his defensive style tactics, however, that is the art he shows in terms of strategy so that his team achieves the targets he hopes for. before we talk about Liverpool and Leverkusen, AS Roma must play a playoff match to enter the last 16. even then, if Mourinho is able to bring his team to overthrow Feyenoord. If this happens, we'll see which team will be the opponent. and for sure, I will not doubt Mourinho. because he knows very well what he has to do with his squad. Win or lose will be determined when their match is held later. the point is, the AS Roma coach will do something to further their goals.

Well, now we talk about Liverpool and Leverkusen. These two teams are in their best phase, especially in the Domestic League. what's more unique is that both of them are currently at the top of the rankings. but because of that, there will be a phase where Jurgen Klopp or Xabi Alonso prioritizes more important competitions. and the answer is none other than the Domestic League. that's why, we just follow when this competition is held. in particular, the teams we mentioned here. apart from that, we should not ignore other teams and some of them are AC Milan and maybe Galatasaray. Maybe if these two teams qualify from the playoff phase, it doesn't rule out the possibility of being able to overthrow the favorite team in this competition. after all, in football it is unique and difficult to predict for sure.

How great and competitive the depth of the Al Nassr squad with Ronaldo is, so far they have not been able to overtake their rival team at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings. seven points adrift, it must be a challenge for Al Nassr to reduce the points gap from its rival team. which means that after this competition is held again, Al Nassr must maximize every match they play by winning. plus, overthrowing Al Hilal in the second meeting this season. however, if Al Hilal remains consistent throughout the match, it will be difficult for Al Nassr to reduce points and even overtake the ranking of its rival team. moreover, if Al Hilal is able to overthrow Al Nassr in the second meeting. thus, it is certain that the Saudi Pro League trophy belongs to the rival. Pm

However, don't worry too much for Ronaldo fans and maybe Al Nassr fans. after all, this competition still has a lot of matches left for each team to play until the end of the season. as I said at the beginning, Ronaldo and his colleagues must bring Al Nassr consistently in every match by winning..while waiting for Al Hilal to slip. if Al Hilal slips in their match, this will be a big problem for them. because, Al Nassr has the potential to reduce the difference in points and overthrow Al Hilal at Al Nassr's own headquarters in the final meeting.
By the way, Al Nassr will play matches against Inter Miami and Al Hilal in the Riyadh Season Cup title. well, this match will bring Ronaldo and Messi together again. apart from that, the match against Al Hilal can be a benchmark for Luiz Castro for his squad. to be honest, I'm not really sure if this match will be an exciting fight or not. what is certain is that Ronaldo and Messi will meet on the field to compete.

I am not so sure if the final match is going to be Real Madrid versus Bayern Munich. Because after KDB is back, you know Manchester City has been performing better. So I believe they have a good chance to be in the final. But I am pretty sure that all of the three teams mentioned are definitely going to be in the semi-final of the Champions League competition. I am pretty confident about Real Madrid being in the final. After all, they are a team that always performs well in the Champions League competition. I am not so sure about Bayern Munich being in the final, to be honest. As KTChampions mentioned the odds, I also believe there are better teams compared to them.

In theory and referring to the teams that are competitors in this competition, the three clubs mentioned in this post have a good chance of getting into the semi-finals or even the final round of this competition. whether it's Bayern Munich with Kane, City with all their abilities, Madrid who play quite solidly and at the same time the presence of Bellingham is the difference. however, unfortunately the round of 16 hasn't even started yet.  So, so far we can only assume and speculate. like last season, Inter was not even nominated as the favorite team at all since the group phase. but in reality they were able to go far and reach the Champions League final.

Regardless of the teams that were their opponents, Inter Milan unexpectedly could advance to the final round. Likewise, with other teams competing in this League. what is clear is that every coach will try to maximize their team ahead of the match they are playing. perhaps, there is an Underdog team that will be the difference this season. yeah, we'll never know until the league starts again. and if that happens, it will be interesting for me personally, especially for Arsenal and Barcelona, ​​who are my favorite teams. although their probability is not as big as Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich. however, Arteta and Xavi will maximize their team, to work hard against the team they are opposing.

But yeah, we agree that these three are more favorites than the other teams. well, if I have to assume and speculate, even though it is only temporary, I still believe that City has the potential to defend its title for the second time. I think Pep will do whatever it takes to achieve what they are targeting. I mean, Pep will never run out of ideas in terms of strategies, patterns and always tries to improve the quality of his team. therefore, based on my personal point of view, City has the highest probability.

Leverkusen scored in the injury time of the match, they were lucky to win the match because I was expecting a draw since Augsburg were able to maintain and hold the game to the 90 minutes without coma goals, but the pressure from Leverkusen helped them to win the match because they dominated the match. Anyways congratulations to Leverkusen for maintaining their unbeaten run and their top position in the Bundesliga table, they keep given Bayern Munich the a tough competition which I believe they will maintain because they play like champions.


As I expected, Victor Boniface's absence would have quite an impact on Leverkusen's attack line at the start of the match after the break. it was proven that this match was quite tough. even though Leverkusen owned the game with 76% ball possession, 24 total shots, 6 on target, seven shots blocked and 4 big chances, 1 shot hit the post, Xabi Alonso's team found it very difficult to convert every opportunity into a goal. and fortunately for Leverkusen, in the crucial minutes of 90+4, Exequiel Palacios was able to break into Augsburg's goal. so, for now Leverkusen is still safe in terms of maintaining a point distance from teams below its ranking, especially Bayern Munich.
overall, based on statistics, almost every Leverkusen player played impressively. however, Patrik Schick and Adam Hlozek did not play as they should. however, it is very natural, after all, these two players rarely play as main starters, especially Patrik Schick, who does not have enough opportunities to play. for the other players, they played with maximum performance, especially Exequiel Palacios who saved his team from getting full points in this match.

Well, the next match will be a challenge for Leverkusen. to keep their distance from Bayern Munich, Leverkusen must beat Leipzig again. but it won't be easy at all, although in the first meeting Leverkusen was able to beat RB Leipzig. with the absence of Victor Boniface, at least it has had quite an impact on the sharpness of Xabi Alonson's squad. apart from that, Leipzig will maximize the match at home, especially after losing to Frankfurt in the previous match. in the next match, both teams will fight to the max. Both Leverkusen and RB Leipzig both need a win. this meeting should be an exciting match next week. Anyway, Alonso is a little calm considering that his team is still consistent in winning.

So I was wondering if some folks here too feel the same way or it was just a matter of grudge and hatred for the particular fellow to stir up such arguement.

In fact, I cannot measure or find the core of the problems that occur in your friendship carefully. in the first point, the problem is because someone from your friend has a problem with his gambling. then, your friend vents his frustration and blames all the mistakes on the person who first taught or introduced gambling. the second point can be related to what happened to a friend of yours. there are many possibilities, but in reality we can only assume based on the stories in this thread. well, the fact that happened in the meeting is that your friend is venting his frustration because of his gambling to date and taking it out on someone. to be honest, we are not sure that what happened was triggered by feelings of hatred or revenge. but it could be, because this is related to a past story that continues to this day, especially involving money and gambling. the point is, subconsciously or consciously, your friend does not accept the reality of his past caused by gambling. the big trigger is the result of always losing. this debate should not happen, especially if you are very mature people. when we were young, we were all easily influenced and carried away here and there, a strong sense of curiosity to try new things was always a trigger and it also depended on where someone hung out and according to the hype at the time. but, as you said this problem is childish. in fact, as we grow older, everything will be determined by us ourselves, including gambling. so, it's really not good to blame each other, especially since this is a moment of meeting past friends which should be an occasion for friendship. I can only conclude that one of your friends is immature to deal with himself and then points out someone who causes him to be involved in gambling.
1092  Other / Off-topic / Re: Know when to stop on: January 13, 2024, 04:01:17 PM
One of the most important factor of a successful gambler is to know when to stop, most gamblers expecially the addictive type don't even know what is stop when it comes to gambling. So it's very important to;
* Stop when your losing is now getting to you.

* Stop when you are now feeling as is you can't do without gambling.

* Stop when you have a big winning, by channeling the money somewhere else so you won't lose it back to gambling.

* Stop when you are not even winning at all, it's not your thing.

* When your losing is weighing you down, stop and restrategize .

Quite a good tip and maybe it will be useful for us, me, even you. honestly, for me what you said is the right idea that gamblers should apply. unfortunately, this idea is not as easy as what we talk about and applies to actual reality. the problem is, there are many factors that cause the ideas you express to be quite difficult for us to carry out consistently. in fact, almost most gamblers who have long experience really know the essence of what you say in this thread. we know very well that we already understand concepts like what you said. It's just that, sometimes we never let go of being carried away by the fun of the game, whether we've strayed past what we should or are in the phase of having fun.nI mean pleasure here, getting a win. but believe me, conditions will vary and it all depends on the conditions and situation.

Well, actually to know and apply the idea of ​​when we should stop is not just in words. this idea must definitely be put into practice, especially to get used to it and achieve discipline. one more thing might be a useful tip, we have to know when it's time to gamble. apart from that, always make sure that when you gamble, you are in a healthy condition. I mean, not in an emotional state, annoyed, looking for an outlet and so on. Although this could actually be a medicine for us to get rid of our problems for a moment, if the situation were reversed, the impact could be fatal for us when gambling.

Barcelona didn't get a surprising result and made it to the finale in the Super Cup.  Smiley  They didn't feel a serious threat against Osasuna even though the game was played at a neutral location. I thought the finale would be on a far date from now but unlike that it is only two days later. It is going to be really lovely to watch another El Clasico very soon.

Real Madrid are of course the favoured side. They have already been doing much better than Barcelona in other competitions. I think they will show their performance quality in this finale as well to become the champions. Xavi had better prepare his players in the best way for a tough challenge.

Previously I thought that there would be three goals in this match and Barcelona would concede at least one goal, but Xavi Hernandez's team was able to win it with a clean sheet. also, they didn't experience the serious problems that threatened Inaki Pena's goal. even though I previously suspected that the goalkeeper would play unstable or underform. but in fact Barcelona played quite well, and they had a lot of attempted shots. it was recorded that Barcelona had 20 total shots, seven on target, two of which were converted into goals. I hope Lewandowski starts to regain his instincts and sharpness, especially in the El Clasico final. apart from that, Joao Felix played quite aggressively and hopefully he will be able to play better in the future and become more established. with this victory, Barcelona has the right to advance to the next phase and will meet its big rival, Real Madrid.

Well, we agree that Real Madrid is more consistent and they seem to be superior. this match will be held in the same place, namely Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. even though it looks like Madrid is superior, it looks like this match will present an exciting and interesting match. I hope, yeah, this Super Cup final match will provide an interesting spectacle for us to enjoy. what is certain is that Real Madrid should not underestimate Barcelona even though their performance is currently unstable. but nevertheless, they have a chance to overthrow Real Madrid. and vice versa, Madrid's probability is quite large to win in this Super Cup meeting. and what is certain is that both Carlo Ancelotti and Xavi Hernandez will prepare their respective teams for the match which will be held in the near future.

This Roma still dont have the solid eprformance you need to win something, you can look yesterday they lsoe against Lazio the derby for the Copa Italia, and they dont have a good match, also in Serie A theya re not doing so good, and they have a much more reinforce team than in previous seasons.

To be honest, I don't really follow the development of the teams competing in Serie A. so, I don't really know any developments. but that doesn't mean I can't find out the statistics of the teams competing in Serie A, including AS Roma. what is certain is that AS Roma is experiencing unstable performance even though AS Roma actually has a pretty good front line, and Mourinho should be able to maximize it. I don't know why Serie A teams prefer the 3-5-2 pattern, even though there are still many ideal systems. the 3-5-2 pattern is actually effective, but it must be filled by competent players in each position. at least Inter always uses this pattern, but Simone Inzaghi is smart in placing his players and implementing his strategy. at a minimum, he knows when to rotate players depending on the opposing team. well, Jose Mourinho should have been smarter because in fact Mourinho has long experience and has brought several clubs he has managed to success to become champions under his tutelage. however, what we are seeing now is not that special in Mourinho's hands.

Talking about the playoff match between Feyenoord versus AS Roma, to be honest I quite doubt AS Roma. moreover, the first leg match was held at home to Feyenoord. referring to the betting market for a while, the home team is favored by bookies. so, the question is whether Mourinho will remain loyal to his defensive system in his away matches, especially the match against Feyenoord. if so, it could be that the home team will take advantage to win the match and maximize every opportunity to score a goal. however, this match actually still has quite a long time lag. there is still time for AS Roma to improve its performance.

Yeah you are right, before Benzema can still play normally but for some reason lately the performance decreases maybe because of the injury or maybe his age is not possible to compete in this league. Benzema still has time until the end of the season to prove that he is still able to compete and Al-Ittihad will make a decision after seeing its performance at the end of the season.

As far as I have observed and followed, Benzema was injured and missed several of his matches with Al Ittihad. in the 19 matches played by Al Ittihad, Benzema only played 15 matches with his team. plus, the system implemented by the previous coach did not suit Benzema's playing style. yeah, as some rumors have reported that Benzema doesn't get along with Nuno Santos. it seems that Benzema doesn't like the system implemented by the coach who previously managed Al Ittihad.
now, Marcelo Gallordo is in charge of Al Ittihad. at least Al Ittihad's new coach is bringing an offensive system, and Benzenma is returning to playing as a pure striker or center forward.

IMO, Benzema can actually still be relied on even though he is 36. the problem is, this team is not filled with potential supporting players. in the end, Benzema's performance has not really improved so far. I think it's not just Benzema's problem if Al Ittihad wants improvement. Ideally, club management must bring in several newcomers who can be relied on. good in terms of scoring goals, as well as contributing to helping Bemzema as a goal in his team's squad. which means, Al Ittihad must bring in several wingers who are quite competent and can be relied on. thus, Al Ittihad still has a chance of at least finishing in the top four of the Saudi Pro League. Well, let's see, this competition still has a break before it starts again.

Soon we are going to have Lens against PSG while we all know Lens is far from their good form and to be honest they can't have much chance to stand against a team like PSG anymore.
Lens are racing with PSG in the last season and they could even win the title in the last season but they lost the race. That's why I think betting on a team like Lens won't be reasonable even if you a big reward.


For now, the bookie is giving odds @ 3.70 on Lens for the match against PSG at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, Lens' home ground. while PSG with odds of 1.89. there is something a little strange for me referring to this bet, although the odds will change before the match is held.
Apart from that, I haven't received any information regarding this match. so, we can wait and research before this match is held. however, on paper PSG is far superior to Lens. even though this match will be held at home to Lens, it will not be easy for Haise's team to provide fierce resistance to PSG in the match. but at least, Lens was able to recover and is currently in 7th place in the standings. not that bad, considering this team doesn't have a squad that has the same depth as the French League giants. last season, Lens was able to compete closely, one of the reasons being that they didn't have a tight schedule. they only compete in Ligue 1 and the Copa de France. this season, Lens took part in the highest caste competition, namely the Champions League, although in the end they were eliminated in the group phase and dropped to the Europa League. even then, they have to go through the playoffs phase first. which means, this season Franck Haise's troops are really being tested. and yeah, as we know and have seen, Lens is unable to maintain its consistency and performance. for me it's normal, because this team doesn't have enough competitive depth.

On the PSG side, their progress in the Domestic League can be said to be on the right track. after several weeks of winning, PSG was finally stopped by Lille with their winning record because the match ended in a draw. however, PSG was still able to continue its winning streak in the following two matches. in the next 3 days, PSG will play an away match against Lens. for now, I won't speculate too far ahead of this match. moreover, Lens performance is currently starting to improve. of the last 5 matches they played, Lens lost the last match to Nice. and we'll see how these two teams meet. will Lens be able to hold a draw, it will be interesting for us to wait.

We all understand that the Manchester city of last season that won the Champions League is not the Manchester City we are seeing now. Although there is no much difference between the Manchester city of last season and the Manchester city of this season. What I am trying to say is that the Manchester City of last season is somewhat better than the Manchester city of this season. Apart from the transfer of some good players like Gundigun and Mahrez, we still understand that a player like KDB has been absent from the Citizens squad. These things that I am noting will only affect Manchester City when they face a bigger club in the semi-finals and not against Copenhagen. Whenever or not Manchester City is inform, Copenhagen cannot eliminate them in the Champions League.

There is nothing wrong with what you say, but we can also refer to what Pep Guardiola did during De Bruyne's long injury. in the matches they have played this season, it is natural that City is not as sharp as last season. clearly, there are significant differences. manchester City, last season, was quite fierce with its 3-2-4-1 pattern, and always beat its rival team with a landslide score. both in the Domestic League and in the Champions League. if there is a difference, yes, it is clear that the departure of Gundohan and Mahrez means Pep must do something ideal for his squad. one of them, bringing in several new arrivals. but that alone was not enough for Pep, especially after De Bruyne was injured. so, it looks like he is trying and planning something for his squad. I see that Pep never assigns his players to the same position, except for a few players in particular who are mainstays on the front line. Just see, if the Manchester City architect prefers to experiment by rotating some of his players.

My conclusion is that he is exploring the potential of his players and trying to maximize it as he wants. apart from that, Pep also rarely plays Jack Grealish in the Premier League. more precisely, Grealish always starts in the Champions League. my assumption is that he did this to maximize his players, especially newcomers. and I am also sure that Pep is fully aware of the risks he is taking. however, the proof is that City still has the opportunity to overtake the teams above them in the Premier League. now De Bruyne is back from injury, in the first match he played quite impressively even though it was against a team that was not very strong. however, with his presence, Pep can now freely apply his system, especially since the first half of the season has passed and now is the time for City to prove their toughness again. it could be that Pep will always rotate players in every match they play. what is certain is that City's chance of qualifying for the next phase of this competition has a high probability. plus, they also have a good chance of continuing to compete for the title in their domestic league.

I feel that Bayern Munchen will not stumble at the start of the second half of the campaign tomorrow, Hoffenheim will need great luck to secure the three points at the Allianz Arena. The preparations of both teams are certainly very good, but both teams are currently still not finished with player injuries, and they are also among the teams that sent players to defend their respective countries. However, I don't think this will reduce the tension of the game, where Bayern doesn't want to lose momentum to overtake Leverkusen, and Hoffenheim has the ambition to be in the European zone.

Statistically Bayern is much better than Hoffenheim, and we have seen that only Leverkusen can steal 1 point at the Allianz Arena so far. So I agree with you in this moment, Tuchel squad has a big chance of securing full points. However, if the opposite happens, it will certainly be very beneficial for Leverkusen in leading the top of the standings in the future.

I am quite optimistic that Bayern will start tomorrow's match versus Hoffenheim with a win. moreover, this match will be played at the Allianz Arena, home of The Bavarians. even though this match will be held tomorrow, we can still refer to Bayern Munich's predicted line up. It seems most likely that Thuchel will play the main players. the reason is, in the second half of this season,Tuchel will be more serious about bringing his team to shift the ranking temporarily occupied by Leverkusen. even though there are three important players injured on Bayern's side, namely Gnabry, Min-jae Kim and Mazraoi, in fact they have an ideal replacement.

Meanwhile, Hoffenheim needs hard work to provide resistance to Bayern Munich in tomorrow's match. or at least, keeping up with Bayern Munich is more than enough for Pellegrino Matarazzo's squad when they play away to Bayern Munich's home ground. we can even refer to the temporary odds for these two teams, Bayern Munich is far superior to the opposing team. so, this match will be a difficult match for Hoffenheim who must be ready to face Bayern at the Allianz Arena. if Bayern wins this match, then they will only be one point behind Bayer Leverkusen.
while Leverkusen will also play an away match against Augsburg, in this match their striker Victor Bonicafe is predicted to be absent for six weeks. of course, it will be a loss for Xabi Alonso who loses his flagship player on the front lines. however, we'll see how they play the match.

Barcelona  VS   Osasuna

I am very interested in today's match between Barcelona vs Osasuna. These two teams will meet in the semi-finals of the Super Cup. Barcelona's performances have been somewhat erratic, but this team is quite strong. Barcelona's chances of winning the La Liga title are slim. So Xavi will definitely want to win the Super Cup title.

Osasuna's performance in La Liga is not good enough. In 19 matches they have earned only 22 points. Also Osasuna's performance against Barcelona is not very good. In the last 5 head-to-head matches, Barcelona have won 4 matches and drawn 1 match. Barcelona have won their last four matches. So I think the possibility of Barcelona winning in the Super Cup match is high.

On paper, Barcelona should be able to win this match, especially in terms of team quality, we both know that the two of them have quite a clear gap, either in terms of player depth or in terms of ranking. apart from that, these two teams have a gap based on the betting market.  Unfortunately, Xavi Hernandez's squad is currently performing really unstable. and what I notice most about Barcelona at the moment is their defense, they are really easy for their opponents to penetrate. in the Copa del Rey, Barcelona conceded two goals to their opposing team in the last match. in this match, we'll see if Xavi makes any changes to his defensive line. in particular, it's natural that I have serious doubts about Inaki Pena. Ter Steger's absence is very influential for Barcelona's goalkeeper.

On the other hand, this match was tough enough for Osasuna to match Barcelona, ​​let alone overthrow them. even though the match was held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which means it was neutral. but it was still not an easy matter for Jagoba Arrasete to bring his team to victory over Barcelona. moreover, based on H2H, Barcelona always wins over Osasuna. referring to betting odds, Barcelona with @1.46 and while Osasuna @6.60. well, we agree with the speculation that Barcelona will win this match. but the question is, will there be 3 goals in this bet. or, the match will be quite tough. btw, every time I try to predict Barcelona it always fails. even though, Barcelona is one of my favorite teams. but if I refer to the predicted line-up for these two teams. this match should produce lots of goals, at least my assumption is that this match will produce 3 goals.

I must say unfortunately that Nicolas Jackson has just no chemistry with Chelsea or the Premier League.  Sad  He is normally a really decent striker. You must be remembering his time at Villarreal before coming here. He was promising back then. But now he is having serious issues with finishing the attacks with goals at Chelsea mostly.

He can score more goals than this actually if he works harder but I don't know maybe he just can't adapt around here. However Chelsea has Nkunku back in the squad after an injury that lasted a very long time. I hope to see him taking the shirt from Jackson as much as possible.

Chelsea needs a center forward who has more quality, is established and can be relied on. if Phoce only relies on Nicolas Jackson as their goal getter, they will find it difficult to achieve their targets this season. I'm not saying that Nicolas Jackson is a sticker who lacks potential, but it seems that Chelsea needs a truly established player in their attack line. Meanwhile for Nicolas Jackson, maybe he needs adaptation and more flying hours to reach his level of play. after all, Nicolas Jackson is a young player, so there is still plenty of time to develop his talent.

At the same time, Poche needs more than that so that his squad can be consistent and win lots of wins. plus, achieved something they targeted this season. at least, Chelsea is one of the elite teams in the Premier League and it seems like finishing in the top four is their target. To be honest, I don't watch Chelsea games that often. however, referring to the statistics for each match, their performance is really unstable. IMO, Chelsea actually has several players who have quality and can be relied on, but not all of them. moreover, Chelsea is currently dominated by young players, at least they need established players. plus, Poche must try and find ways for his team to improve its performance. if not, his position as Chelsea coach will be at stake.
