You have it almost all, Sevilla is not a Spanish giant or champions but they have been a good team in Laliga and a great team in the Europa League,this season was a great season for Sevilla because they were ahead of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid for majority of the season but Barcelona has pick up and start being Barcelona and that means Sevilla have to go down for them and that will start in this weekend game between the two side which I know Barcelona will trash them after what they demolish Real Madrid.
As I said, because of the latest results, Barcelona is very much overrated. At the moment, the quotes for the upcoming match are as follows: 1,49 - 4,50 - 6,80 In my opinion, these are absurd odds for a match between two approximately equal teams. I think the 2.65 Sevilla or Draw bet is easy money. It's true, some people are overly speculating with just a 4-goal win from Madrid. Indeed, it is quite natural that they are seeded but this is too much in my opinion because Madrid is not the benchmark and a win with Madrid is not necessarily what they can do when they play with Sevilla. Football is a team game at 90 minutes and there is still a lot to decide, the result of the previous game doesn't really matter when the 90 minutes go on there has to be some real action there |

This year in Serie A no team its "trusted", Napoli for example all the times they have the chance to go to the first spot they fail. Milan similar. Inter seems the better but the last rounds fail also.
Well Juventus starts was very bad so they now are running from behind.
Like i said before i want Milan to win to dont have another monopoly years.
Maybe it can be said like that but for now there is still excitement for several clubs to be champion candidates there and of course now Milan is in the front position after Inter failed with their performance. Juventus now still have hope even though they got off to a pretty bad start but slowly they bounced back and are now just 1 point behind Inter who are in 3rd position |

So far the candidates for the title have been Inter Milan, AC Milan and Napoli. But if Juventus can win their next match, they will move to third place in the table. And Juventus will continue to fight for the title. But at this moment AC Milan is in the safest place, they are at the top of the table. However, the next opponents of AC Milan are quite difficult. Winning against Napoli, Fiorentina and Lazio will not be easy.
They are only 1 point adrift of Inter in 3rd position and 7 points from Milan I think they still have a chance for that. their opponent now is Inter and indeed this is one of the decisions in my opinion because when they win then the hope to shorten the distance with Milan opens and the chances are there, but when they lose then indeed they have to focus on securing 4th position and being in the safe zone for UCL Next season |

In fact, I think it would be weird if Barcelona didn't win this game. They have a much better team, excellent coach and they play good football. And they take the points every week, while Sevilla only hand in points every week. It is only a matter of time for Barcelona to be 2nd. Perhaps Barcelona will secretly still be chasing the league title, Real Madrid has also proved very unstable in certain matches lately. We cannot rule out that this will happen a few more times. That 0-4 hit Madrid hard.
By looking at the previous performance against Madrid it is quite strange that they will lose now but on the other hand this also depends on their game on the pitch later. sometimes everything is not as we want and maybe even the opposite when 90 minutes on the field, hopefully they play well because if they don't, it indirectly means their performance is not stable because they are still in inconsistency |

Do you think an in-form Arsenal can afford to drop or lose any point now? absolutely No, this is a club that had up their game and improved in their performances, they defeated a formidable Aston Villa in their last match and with a game in hand, though Tottenham who closely followed the gunners on the table is a big threat to Arsenal top 4 spot, however they are very inconsistent in their performance, they can get beaten by a mid table club and Tottenham has equally tough fixtures ahead in their remaining matches consequently I am tipping Arsenal to clinch the top 4 spot at the end of the season.
on the other hand their current opponent was also not an opponent they could easily win in a match. The next 3 games they will face now are the teams that are in the top table and it will be a bit difficult. Arsenal are now performing well but if you look at the opponents they will face now it doesn't mean they will play by winning because as we can see some of the teams they will be playing against are actually doing quite well. Chelsea are in good form now too, Manchester United and West ham even though they are not very good in their form but they are still tough opponents |

Well, in this case, when Napoli still wanted Asa to win, it seemed they had to make this a good thing later. They have to get 3 points even though it is difficult because it is very likely that Milan will win in this match even though it is the same as usual with a slim score but most likely they will win.
There is no other way for Napoli but to win because otherwise they will indirectly distance themselves from the title race
Napoli are a bit more advantaged because even though playing at home Atalanta will definitely play more carefully the reason 4 days later Atalanta competed in the UCL Of course UCL is more important because that's their only hope for the title even though it's very small for that Atalanta will definitely avoid injury in the local league If Napoli can take this opportunity they can get at least one point it's better than nothing. slightly corrected now they are playing in the Europa League not the Champions League. Even if that's the case, of course they want to maximize the match even though it's 1 point there because even though their concentration is branched out in Serie A and the Europa League, of course they also want to achieve better results apart from defeat. at least they have to get 1 point and it would be great if they win |

The only way for PSG to win the UCL title is to change the coach, because in terms of the squad, basically PSG are already extraordinary but unfortunately they don't have the right coach. I personally hope that the rumors about Zidane being signed by PSG as a replacement for Pochettino are true, so I believe that PSG will be able to penetrate the UCL even further.
I would rather call the squad of City or Liverpool (and Real Madrid next season) extraordinary. PSG are strong on paper, but in fact Neymar played average (injuries can be taken into account here), Messi is old and also plays average, Donnarumma also plays poorly - he has failures. Next season, the situation will get worse - Mbappe will leave, Messi will age even more, what will happen to Neymar is unknown, but it is unlikely that he will change for the better. In fact, the new coach will build a team almost from scratch. Even if you look at the rumors currently circulating Messi and Neymar will leave because Neymar is being targeted by an English club and Messi is likely to leave because of his contract. PSG's performance is still more or less the same as before, both individually and not as a team. It's very difficult to unite great players with so many egos out of them and this happened to PSG. Speaking of Donaruma, I even prefer Navas' performances in goal from PSG |

Yes, if Barcelona return to poor form, a draw might be deserved from Sevilla.
but the rise of barcelona under the tutelage of xavi made barcelona rise and develop in a short time, and the development of barcelona in my opinion will make it difficult for Sevilla especially in possession of the ball plus Sevilla in a declining form which I think the score in the match will be thin and Barcelona will get full points.
I don't think there is a chance for a draw result for the match Barcelona vs Sevilla. These two teams have a too different situation, Barcelona is in the top performance but Sevilla is in the worse performance. Considering this, Barcelona should win the match, they have big confidence to beat each La Liga team after they defeated Real Madrid in the last match. Moreover, they know if they get 3 points in this match, they will overtake Sevilla and rise up to 2nd place. They also will play at their home (Camp Nou), they don't want to make their fans be unsatisfied by having a draw. With a big expectation after Xavi comes and a brilliant performance of Barcelona lately, there is no reason for Barcelona to get a draw or lose, they must win this match and get 3 points. Sevilla are currently unseeded due to their inconsistent performance over the last few games and I quite agree with what you said about Barcelona, they are now playing very aggressively and a significant improvement in performance now is still one of the great praises to be conveyed to Xavi. They can use their previous victory against Madrid as a trigger for victory now because it can increase their confidence |

The gap between Milan and Napoli is really small now but this can change by the next week games too. The current gap is only three points. Milan have an easy fixture ahead against Bologna home and they shouldn't make any mistake in this comfortable game. I think they will win by a one-goal difference. But Napoli have a quite tough fixture against Atalanta in an away game. Atalanta are still a strong opponent even though they have been unstable for some weeks. I see Napoli likely to lose two points at the end.
Well, in this case, when Napoli still wanted Asa to win, it seemed they had to make this a good thing later. They have to get 3 points even though it is difficult because it is very likely that Milan will win in this match even though it is the same as usual with a slim score but most likely they will win.

Chelsea could be the most comfortable team in the league now. Because they have no target to achieve left from now on. I mean that they don't have any chance for the Premier League championship obviously. They are very likely to end this season in the third position in the standings. They are just going to try to keep their position like this until the end not to be in danger. If they are left behind by another team, it could mean that they can be under the threat of staying out of top four too. But I think Chelsea will keep their position.
with such a good performance like now I think Chelsea will be irreplaceable in 3rd position in the table and there are only a few games left. they are very likely to stay in the top 4 of the final standings. Chelsea at this time of course will focus entirely on the UCL match where they will face a tough opponent, namely Real Madrid. From the start, they are now quite comfortable in their current position, especially with the consecutive wins they have done until now. but they can't be careless first because Arsenal are also in good form and their gap is now only 5 points. they must be smart in dividing the rotation so that their points will not be overtaken by Arsenal now |

I think the only thing Real Madrid have going for them at moment is the bragging right of having more Champions league than Chelsea. Otherwise, they have never defeated Chelsea in an any official game in their history. Chelsea seems to have the better of them. I think Chelsea can match this Madrid side, they are not as great as they look on paper if Barcelona could outplayed them like that.
Come on, it's an outdated story because it happened decades ago, now it will be a little different friends, apart from the title and history now both clubs are different from the past and I don't think it's very ethical to compare the old history with now. The performance of both teams is now quite good and indeed this is a fact regardless of the advantage or victory this will be seen from their performance and current strategy. |

It looks like it is the end of the road for Villarreal and Benfica in this round. Because I don't give them any chance against Bayern Munich and Liverpool respectively. Each one of their opponents is a big favourite for the Champions League title. When we consider this fact seriously, I don't expect them to show a big performance against them in their away games especially. Maybe they would somehow show a good resistance in their home games. For the first games, I feel like Liverpool will win and Villarreal will steal a draw from Bayern Munich.
It obviously doesn't seem like that, because Bayern Munich and Liverpool are not going to be beaten by these two teams in my opinion. I think they have done really well to reach this stage of the tournament. Breaching the quarter-final of the Champions League is not easy work at all. But the team that they are going to face in their next match are just a way higher level than them. it is true that they don't have any chance in these matches. Actually, if you look at the current Bayern are very favored and it seems that luck is still very on his side. Their opponents during this round have always been below them I think, last 16 against Salzburg and now they will face Villarreal. even though before that Villareal played amazingly but as you said maybe this is the end for them in the Champions League |

It's true that until now there is still no one who can really qualify to enter the main caste and get promoted there but in this case I think the chances of Bremen are still quite good.
What's surprising is now that Nurnberg doesn't seem to want to be left behind in this event because their points and form are quite good now.
this depends on who is more focused on undergoing the rest of the league now because indeed once they lose focus and points then their chances are getting smaller now
I think the race for qualification is yet wide open, because if you’ll see the table then you’ll notice that in the last 4 games all top 4 teams have dropped points except Nurnberg. Lastly if the top 4 teams continue to lose points then we’ll witness another team occupying the top spot i.e. Nurnberg, but there’s a huge chance that the top 4 may not change and that is why I find this league so interesting to watch. this is like I said before, indeed their points are still quite tight and it is still very difficult to determine who will be the team that will be promoted this season. Nurnberg emerged as a new dark horse at the end of this season but the chances of them are actually quite slim in my opinion because there are indeed some clubs who have more things than them apart from that their schedule is also quite heavy because there are some great teams who still haven't played with them |

Haha, I thought it was a joke about Manchester United. No coach has matched them after Sir Alex Ferguson. They were stronger with Carrick even if it was for a while but the rest was a joke in my opinion. No titles are expected of Manchester United every season, they are weaker than we expected. I think Manchester United really have to forget their successful past with Ferguson and they have to work together as best they can with the new coach, whoever they work with. Agree with what you said even with Carick they kept on winning without losing  It's really hard to bring back the Sir Alex Era now especially with the performances of the coaches like this. United are still very unlucky because their problem actually lies in their coaching and game so this is indeed still continues now |

Liverpool really look like a slightly better team than Manchester City in the league nowadays. I'm just saying this taking their forms lately into account of course. While Liverpool were getting fifteen points in their last five games, Manchester City got ten points. They lost to Tottenham in their home game and drew with Crystal Palace away. I think that both of them were very unexpected point losses. But Guardiola's Manchester City are always very strong. And I'm also among the people who are looking forward to watching the Manchester City - Liverpool game.  This match will be a tense match, moreover Liverpool really need a win from Manchester City to replace the first position in the current EPL standings. If Liverpool win this game, I don't think anything will really hinder Liverpool in the EPL after that. I have high hopes for Liverpool to win the EPL this season. FYI, apart from the EPL, Liverpool and Manchester City will also meet again in the FA Cup Semi-finals, this will also be an interesting match although not as exciting as in the EPL later. yep, they will meet later and with the same team and in 2 weeks in a row. Interestingly City will continue to be the host in this and of course this is good enough for them at least with the presence of full supporters they will be carried away by enthusiasm in this matter although indeed that is not enough but it can be said that the role of supporters to disrupt mentality is also quite good in my opinion . Liverpool are now very strong and City need extra effort in this regard if they are to stay in first place |

The battle for the top spot in the second Bundesliga points table is now only between St. Pauli and Werder Bremen. Because the Darmstadt was lost to Bremen and is now 3 points behind. Still, it is uncertain which team will qualify for the Bundesliga. Because, although the performance of the teams was stable at the beginning of the season, now the performance of the teams is not stable. Also the point gap between them is not much. So if a team loses a match, it will be difficult for them to qualify for the Bundesliga.
Not any club have locked for promoting to Bundesliga because 1st until 5th position standing have little different points only, St. Pauli and Werder Bremen have collected the 51 points, behind have Darmstadt on 3rd position standing behind 3 points left and on 4th place have Schalke with different 4 points. Left 7 match make for team will fight each other getting Bundesliga competition spot next season and 1st then 2nd position automatically will play on Bundesliga and 3rd position will have play off match. It's true that until now there is still no one who can really qualify to enter the main caste and get promoted there but in this case I think the chances of Bremen are still quite good. What's surprising is now that Nurnberg doesn't seem to want to be left behind in this event because their points and form are quite good now. this depends on who is more focused on undergoing the rest of the league now because indeed once they lose focus and points then their chances are getting smaller now |

Yep actually keep talking about them makes me feel a little annoyed because in this case I am a supporter of Madrid But on the other hand, this season they have been talked about a lot because their performance at the start of the season was very bad and the case of Koeman's sacking was also discussed quite a lot, besides that now their good performance and the effect of Xavi's coaching have also been discussed a lot so it is certain that many are debating this matter I think it's very reasonable because there are a lot of supporters from Real Madrid and Barcelona. So when doing yesterday match, this issue will continue to surface that Barcelona achievements have increased dramatically. On the other hand, from the point of view of Real Madrid supporters, they only think that Barcelona should not be proud just yet because many regret the absence of Benzema, focus on the UCL, and so on. That's what makes his passion even more interesting to watch. But indeed in this case as you said because Barcelona this season was so surprising, first they were surprising because they played badly on the other hand messi's departure was also quite hot and their performance began to improve so of course this will continue to be discussed even though it is a discussion in my opinion just stay in place and come back from the beginning. well I don't think it's finished talking about them maybe even until the end of this season |

Barcelona is mentioned more than any other club on every page. Quite interesting given that Real will be the champion and three Spanish clubs continue their performance in the Champions League, but not Barcelona.
It's a pity that there is still a lot of time before the next round and there won't be any new "food" for conversation yet.

But, one team I am hopeful about is Schalke. It's true that we haven't seen them perform well enough in recent times but I really want to see this team perform better and compete for the first position in the league. Darmstadt needs a win to be in the 2nd place even if they have the same points because they have a better goal difference.
schalke is only one point away from 3rd place, so Schalke still has enough chances to reach 3rd place at least. Also because Schalke still has to play against all the teams that are ahead of them. I would say that up to 6th place (Hamburger SV) has a chance of promotion. this is still possible considering their performance is also quite good in my opinion because indeed some of the league results they have done so far are quite good. For Hamburger, it is a little more difficult because of several defeats and draws over the past 4 weeks but indeed as you said they are also quite competitive now even though their points have been drained and overtaken by other clubs due to 2 draws and 2 losses in their last 4 matches. |

Nothing seems to be working right for United. First thing Manchester United should do is replace Harry Maguire. Maguire has been a disaster for Manchester United thus far, he is not deserving of the post as captain of the team. Just probably because he is a English player because it really doesn't make sense. A Christiano Ronaldo should be captain. He has done it all, the younger players will listen to him.
It's irreplaceable for now but it will probably happen next season. Maguire's performance is really bad for the high price given. he always does things that are unnecessary in my opinion and this makes the team feel at a disadvantage. It doesn't matter what even in their last 2 matches in EPL and CL I think we can see the blunders he made are always a loss for the team because with the mistakes he made Manchester United would always concede the ball |
