In the end, this battle did not result in any goals at all, and Liverpool was very unlucky in this match. just imagine, Liverpool is superior overall. both technically, tactically, and also the many opportunities they created. there were 38 total shots created by Liverpool players, unfortunately only 8 were on target, 13 shots were blocked, but they only had 1 big chance. in this match, United played desperately to block every attack launched by Liverpool. every United defender struggled to defend his defense. Onana is no exception, this time he is the savior of his squad. Onana made 8 saves. from the minute the first half whistle sounded, Liverpool immediately played aggressively and United were not even given a chance at all. United only had 2 total shots, 1 off target, 1 shot blocked. On the contrary, Liverpool played more aggressively in the second half by controlling more ball possession. but as I said, Jurgen Klopp's squad only had 1 big chance, 1 missed big chance and 5 shots on target. but at least in the second half United fought back a bit more, they had 4 shots in total, 1 on target, one big chance. there was a moment that Hojlund should have done well, he was face to face with the goalkeeper. but unfortunately, Hojlund has not been able to score a goal in the Premier League. In this match, at least United's defenders played solidly so that Onana's goal was not conceded. even though United's midfield and front line were quite messy, sharing this draw should be able to motivate them much better. moreover, several other injured players will soon recover. so, it's an advantage for Ten Hag. as for Liverpool, they had to be satisfied with a score of 0-0. in the end, Arsenal remained at the top of the standings.

I think it will be difficult for us to predict, especially since the draw for the round of 16 has not yet been held. even though the team from the Spanish League has 4 representatives, that doesn't mean the other teams will be easily defeated because there are only a few contestants in this competition. I think in any case, City is still worth considering even though their performance is a little less than optimal in the Domestic League. but in reality, they didn't play badly. and I am also very sure that Pep prioritizes the Champions League trophy to be defended this season.

As for Arsenal, I'm not really sure about Mikel Arteta's squad. but at least, they have competitive ammunition and are worthy of being considered as opponents who can make things difficult for any team. apart from that, the only German representative who is really a favorite is Bayern Munich. I think Tuhchel is very aware of how to win the title in this competition. in other words, they will further strengthen their team squad. maybe by bringing in some new arrivals, as well as City and Arsenal. Well, because this is still just an assumption and speculation, we will find out later after the schedule for the draw for the last 16 of the 2023-24 Champions League will be held this Monday. after that, we can see the teams that will face each other. but personally, I still prefer City even though they are not my favorite team. Well, let's just make sure it's time for the round of 16 to be held.

To be honest, I didn't get any rumors or official notification directly from this Brazilian midfielder. however, I read some news about Al Hilal and Al Nassr being interested in recruiting Casemiro from United. in fact, the last time I read Romano's report regarding this midfielder, he was starting to train on the field to improve his injury recovery. he is nearly recovered, important news for Erik Ten Hag. apart from that, I didn't get any news that Romano reported on his social media. however, let's just say that this rumor is close to true. The question, as you say, is whether Al Nassr or Al Hilal would be willing to offer United a big deal for the 31-year-old midfielder. I'm sure that Casemiro deserves a fantastic price if some Saudi club wants to bring him.

Firstly, Casemiro was brought in by Ten Hag at a fairly expensive price. apart from that, this player was one of the great players both with Madrid and United, he was even able to become a leader on the field and at the same time had a winning mentality. so, it is very feasible if the Saudi club brings him in at a fairly high value. however, I highly doubt it. the reason is that apart from Ten Hag really needing Casemiro's services, it is not certain that Casemiro is willing to join a Saudi club. Let's flashback first, Casemiro was willing to leave Madrid because he wanted and was interested in making Manchester United a strong and great team. In his first season, Casemio played an important role and was able to contribute to United finishing in the top four of the Premier League. this season, he experienced injuries and some chaos in the Ten Hag camp. well, if the United squad recovers, especially its core players. I'm sure United will become a strong team again.

If I refer to several predictions for the line-up, it seems that Don Carlo will rotate his front line players, even though I really doubt that. but after I tried referring to various prediction references, the results were not much different. so, I'm not sure about the staring eleven that Carlo Ancelotti will play. therefore, I cannot confirm its validity. but if so, the betting options will definitely change according to the predicted scenario that I get. what is certain is that Don Carlo will continue to apply the 4-3-2-1 pattern. Bellingham seems to remain the player he relies on, apart from Rodrygo. By the way, I don't dare say a definite guarantee, because in football it is unique and cannot be predicted with certainty and accuracy. however, if we refer to betting odds, Real Madrid is far superior with @1.26. It's very clear that there are differences between these two teams. moreover, the match was played at the Santiago Bernabeu. for players in other lines, there seems to be no change.

So now we refer to Villarreal. I just found out that Marcelino is the head coach of Villarreal. so it's natural that Villarreal will rely more on counterattacks in this match. We know very well that Marcellino always tends to use his 4-4-2 pattern. with the scenario, they will rely on counterattacks. Well, it's very likely that this match will be tough because Villarreal will tend to defend. So, this match depends on how Carlo Ancelotti's squad breaks down the opposing team's defense. To be honest, I wouldn't bet on this match, but if I had to estimate, Villarreal's +2 Handicap @1.76 option is the ideal option for me. because, I think this match will be tough, especially Don Carlo seems to be rotating his front line players. Well, to be sure, let's just wait for this match to be held.

There's not much we can expect from a team of Nice's level, we can even refer to their statistics. this team only scored 17 goals in its 16 matches. at least if they want to be able to compete closely with PSG, a team competing in Ligue 1 must have a competitive squad. at least Monaco is also quite productive in terms of scoring goals, unfortunately Monaco have not found the right pattern and system for them. not that I underestimate Nice, but with what they show. Let's be realistic, from the start I doubted it. and don't be surprised, if Nice will gradually drop in ranking. different from Monaco, at least in my opinion they have made quite good progress. The coach, Adolf Hutter, in several matches, especially at the start of the competition, tended to experiment and try to rotate several of his players. at least, this team has a chance to become runner up. or maybe, AS Monaco will be able to appear impressive in the next matches if the coach has found the ideal pattern and system for his squad. Let's just wait, this competition still offers lots of matches. boring or not, it all depends on how you react to it. or, maybe this way it will be easier for you to predict.

Talking about the Lillie vs PSG match, it would be very natural if Luis Enrique's squad were superior. moreover, in their last 8 matches in Ligue 1, PSG was able to sweep the match with a win. In this match, PSG is still superior. PSG with @1.89, Lille @3.80. it could be that this match ends in a draw. moreover, Lille has not lost in its last 5 matches. well, if anyone is brave, my estimate is, there won't be many goals in this match. Under 3 goals @1.89 is quite ideal.

Arteta's squad really played impressively in this match, both in the first half and also in the second half. however, the Gunners' young squad should have been able to score a goal in the first half. unfortunately, every opportunity that was available was not able to be converted properly. there were 15 total shots in the first half, 3 on target, 7 shots blocked, 1 big chance. Gabriel Jesus, Martinelli, Saka, have opportunities. unfortunately, there is none that they can put to good use. Odegard was no exception, several of his kicks were blocked by the Brighton squad. In the first half, Arsenal really didn't give De Zerbi's squad a chance. entering the second half, Brighton started to play openly, especially after Gabriel Jesus was finally able to score a goal for his team in the 53rd minute. Instead of De Zerbi wanting to equalize, he tried to withdraw several players so that his team could play optimally. But unfortunately, Arsenal are actually playing better and are able to increase the number of goals scored by Kai Havertz. technically and tactically, Arsenal is superior to Brighton.  especially, in the first half even though no goals were scored. Unfortunately, my prediction failed miserably. My previous estimate was that at least this match would end 2-1. but in fact Brighton didn't have many chances. but with this victory, as an Arsenal fan I was very entertained by what the Gunners displayed. Now, we wait for the results of the Liverpool vs Manchester United match. The match almost entered the final minutes of the first half, the score was still tied at 0-0. well, we'll keep watching.

Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart.

In this meeting, Stuttgart will be tested on their strength when they meet the Bundesliga giants. This match will be a crucial match for Sebastian Hoeness' squad, how his team will prove and provide resistance to Bayern Munich. also, how will they overtake the two teams above them if they get full points. which means, Stuttgart will be above Bayern if Thomas Tuchel's squad collapses in this match. however, it seems that Sebastian Hoeness will prefer to apply a 4-4-2 pattern when playing his match at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich's headquarters. It's natural, after all Bayern is a strong team. especially. Bayern acted as the home team. while the home team, Bayern Munich, looks like they will continue to apply a 4-2-3-1 pattern, relying on Kane as a goal machine for their squad. however, several players will be absent due to injury. I'm not sure whether Tuchel will play Muller as a central midfielder. or, Musiala. instead, if there is a rotation of players, Musiala can be played on the wing or Thucel prefers Mathys Tel. however, Bayern is still Bayern, the main and second tier players do not have much difference in terms of quality except for the center forward position. if we refer to betting, it is not ideal with odds @1.42 for Bayern. for other options, not so ideal. the question is whether there will be many goals in this match. minimum match result with a score of 3-1, or 3-2. then the option Over 3.5 goals odds @1.77 is quite ideal. the point is, Bayern will win this match.

---

Leverkusen vs Frankfurt.

On paper, Leverkusen is far superior to the away team. although previously, Frankfurt was able to beat Bayern with a score of 5-1. but currently, Frankfurt is not a stable team. so it's only natural that Leverkusen is far superior. previously, Leverkusen overthrew Molde with a landslide score of 5-1. however, in the last 2 matches in the Bundesliga, Leverkusen was only able to achieve minor results. draw against Dortmund, as well as when they visited Stuttgart. In this match, Xabi Alonso will continue to play his starting eleven in order to get full points and at the same time increase the points gap from Bayern Munich. so, three points is the result they must get. however, if Frankfurt can beat Bayern Munich, it is not impossible that they will also be able to do the same when they visit Leverkusen. Leverkusen with odds @1.27, Frankfurt @10.00. It was clear, there was a clear gap between the two teams. Well, there are two options that we can choose, in my personal opinion, it could be Over 3 goals @1.73. or, Handicap option +1.75 @1.87 for Frankfurt. which means, this match could result in 2-1, 3-2, or vice versa. in other words, let's just wait for this match to take place.

Arsenal vs Brighton.

In the last two matches in two competitions, Arsenal did not produce impressive results. lost against Aston Villa, were held to a draw when they visited PSV. of course, a result that we Gunners fans did not expect. Today, Arsenal will play a match against Brighton. we know that Arsenal are superior in this match, but don't ever assume that De Zerbi's squad is unable to put up a fight. in last season's meeting, Brighton was able to beat Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium with a score of 0-3. so, Arteta and his squad cannot underestimate their opposing team at all. referring to the predicted line-up, Arteta will field his main starting eleven squad. because no matter what, they must get full points in this match. Now we refer to the betting options, Arsenal with odds @1.50 and Brighton with @6.20.  It seems like betting on Brighton with the odds given is very interesting. but because Arsenal is my favorite team, of course you will give your full support to the Gunners. the ideal option in betting is to choose both teams to score odds @1.77. My estimate is that this match will end with a score of 2-1. or, 3-1 for the Gunners.

---

Liverpool vs Manchester Utd.

A match that I think will feature an exciting battle between the two teams. Liverpool with its 4-3-3, and Manchester United with its 4-2-3-1. referring to several news sources that I read, Rashford and Luke Shaw are certain to appear in this match. so tonight, Manchester United will play a crucial match. The Red Devil will play a crucial match against the Red at Anfield. Manchester United really needs to win this match against Liverpool, if United plays another bad match and loses. then their ranking will move further away from the top 4 in the standings. no different from Jurgen Kloop's squad, they will defeat United at Anfield, the Red's own headquarters. three points is a result they must get, especially since United is in an unstable condition. Referring to the odds, there is a clear gap between the two teams. Liverpool with @1.37, while United with @7.40. this is really tempting, even though Liverpool actually has a higher probability. but, I will take the risk to choose Manchester United with odds @7.40. I think it's worth the risk. so, let's look forward to these matches.

If we talk about football, currently football is equipped with various technological features, one of which is VAR.  one of its functions or benefits, is to avoid the practice of match fixing. However, things related to match fixing will always be interesting for those who have access to make the settings as they wish. however, is there strong evidence to worry that every match presented has the potential for match fixing? of course not, especially for the top leagues. that's why, I only bet on a few top leagues. For other leagues, especially leagues that are not well known, I am not interested at all. except, I really know this league. Therefore, it is important for us, especially those who like football, to know in depth the ins and outs. At least if there is a scenario or practice such as match fixing, we can see the difference. Even though these practices have been neatly packaged in such a way, there will always be differences that can even be suspicious. well, that's why I say, I only bet on top Leagues. apart from that, the system, technology, regulations and everything related to it are more accountable than other leagues that are not well known.

Then the question is, can match fixing happen in the top league? The answer is, maybe yes and maybe no. The problem is, we don't know as long as a case of match fixing is not revealed. at least, the top leagues are more trustworthy and I'm not worried about that. actually there are many factors that make me confident, but it's quite long if we review them. in short, for example in the Premier League, City bought a lot of great players and they spent a lot of money on them. Plus, the trainers are very competent. then why are they doing match fixing, after all they have a solid team. in fact, to get the Champions League title City had to experience many failures and in the end they succeeded for the first time. well, so my answer is very clear, I'm not worried about the top leagues that can be trusted even though the potential will always be there. but in fact, we cannot know as long as a case is not revealed.

Dortmund actually played quite well in this match, they had lots of opportunities. However, unexpectedly, the home team put up quite fierce resistance. Not inferior to Dortmund, Augsburg also has quite a lot of opportunities. Dortmund should be able to win this match, but unfortunately their problem remains the same, namely, their center forward cannot be relied on in every match. In this match, Fullkrug played quite well, one assist, 2 chances, 2 missed big chances, 3 missed shots. In the end, he was unable to score a goal in this match, apart from providing one assist. That's why Terzic still gave Fullkrug a chance compared to Sebastien Haller, who didn't contribute anything as long as he was given the chance to play, either as the main starter or second line player.  Haller only had 10 appearances in 15 matches, 4 of which were starters. but as far as Terzic provided opportunities, Haller was unable to produce a goal. So it's only natural that Terzic chose someone else. As for Gittens, he is a young player who is still 19 years old. However, the appearance is quite neat.  in other words, he still needs more flying hours to reach his game. tactically, Dortmund is better than the home team. However, the problem is that they always have difficulty scoring goals, as for Maukoko, this young player still has to undergo treatment due to his injury. In fact, previously it was hoped that this young player would perform well this season. unfortunately, Terzic didn't give him many opportunities and was only a second tier player.

As for Augsburg, they played quite well even though they tended to play more defensively. Overall, Augsburg didn't play badly.  especially their defensive line, which played disciplined and solid. As a result, both teams have to share points. and Dortmund's position had to go down, because Leipzig won the match over Hoffenheim. Tomorrow there are two matches we are looking forward to, namely Leverkusen vs Frankfurt and Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart.

Again and again, Barcelona experienced results that were far from expected. In fact, Barcelona played well overall, especially in the second half, Barcelona dominated the game. In the first half, the match was quite tough and the home team was able to put up quite a good fight. even though Barcelona dominated more, they were unable to take advantage of the opportunities they had to convert them into goals. 3 shots on target, 2 shots blocked and 1 big chance. Meanwhile, Valencia was not as different in terms of opportunities as Barcelona in the first half. entering the second half, Barcelona played dominantly with 71% ball possession, and Barcelona had far more opportunities than in the first half. 5 shots on target, 2 shots blocked, 4 big chances. In the 55th minute, Barcelona took the lead from Raphina's assist and Joao Felix executed it easily. Barcelona continued to dominate, until in the end Valencia was able to equalize, scored by Hugo Guillamon with a shot that was difficult for Barca goalkeeper Inaki Pena to reach.

Overall, Barcelona actually performed well in this match. It's just that Balde and Kounde didn't play at their best, perhaps because of Xavi's rotation. Instead of wanting to increase the aggressiveness of Barcelona's attack by withdrawing Joao Felix, who was replaced by Torres, Gundohan was withdrawn and replaced by Lamine Yamal. With the hope that these two substitute players could contribute, the opposite happened, Ferran Torres underperformed. Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal, naturally, only played 9 minutes. in other words, Barcelona must be satisfied with minor results and share points with Valencia. and as a Barcelona supporter, I was quite disappointed with the 3 matches they played in two different events. Well, Xavi should be able to improve his squad. After all, Barcelona didn't play badly, but the problem was that they had difficulty scoring goals or lots of goals. In the future, I hope Xavi finds the ideal system and formula for his squad.

Previously, I read several rumors reporting that Barcelona would consider releasing Lewandowski. However, I am not too sure about the validity of the news reporting about this Barcelona star. apart from that, I don't know which Saudi clubs would be interested in Lewandowski. because the club that was acquired by PIF already has a center forward. except, Al-Ahli if they want to bring in Lewandowski and shift Firmino to become a winger or attacking midfielder. and I think, this still makes sense. Speaking of the thread you posted, I'm not sure about the validity of this rumor, but let's just say it's true. In fact, Barcelona needs a financial outflow for the health of their balance sheet. It's just that if Lewandowski is released, Barcelona will experience a situation that will make things difficult for their own squad. The reason is, currently there are not many center forwards who are established and ready to perform impressively in their first season.  As for several names, the transfer value is fantastic.  So, it makes sense that Barcelona will retain this Polish player. even though in reality, Lewandowski is already 35 years old. Moreover, Barcelona will welcome a player from Brazil this January. Of course, Lewandowski will still be needed as an established player and as well as a mentor on the field for his colleagues. Moreover, Lewandowski has said on several occasions that he is more interested in retiring at Barcelona. however, in football it is unique. the situation could change. Well, let's just wait for developments.  but it will be impossible for Barcelona to let him go, especially in January.

Maybe Sevilla could be called the king of the Europa League trophy, but in fact they failed to qualify for the Champions League and did not enter the Europa League. Sevilla did not show a solid performance, apart from being pragmatic. In fact, they didn't win a single match during the Group B phase of the Champions League. even though, Arsenal can be said to be the only strong team in group B. However, the fact is that Sevilla failed miserably and maybe it would be better for them to focus more on their Domestic League. As for Liverpool, so far many members of the community prefer one of the representative teams from the Premier League.  Very natural, in fact we have reviewed it many times. Moreover, if Klopp brings in several new arrivals this January. It could be that Liverpool will be much tougher.

Likewise with Leverkusen, the squad coached by Xabi Alonso has not tasted defeat throughout its matches this season both in the Domestic League and in the group phase with maximum results. So, it is very natural that one of the representatives from the German League is one of the candidates who has the probability of winning the Europa League trophy. However, there are actually other teams that could even appear surprising. one of them is another English team, namely, Brighton. De Zerby's squad often performs optimally when playing against teams that are stronger than them. Apart from that, there are several teams that have been knocked out of the Champions League. Galatasaray, could be one of the teams capable of competing for the trophy in this competition. Even Benfica cannot be underestimated, it is not inferior to AC Milan. Pioli should have learned a lot from his failure. If the system he proposed is no longer effective. So, let's just wait for the draw, especially for the teams that will play in the playoffs. As for which team will win the trophy, we will discuss later because there are still many matches that will be played by the teams competing in this League.

Well, I am a Barcelona supporter for the La Liga competition. It cannot be denied that Xavi made a big contribution to Barcelona, ​​especially last season. In a tight financial situation, Xavi was able to bring in several free players with the approach he took. Apart from that, Barcelona won the La Liga trophy again thanks to Xavi and other trophies, although they were not as prestigious. But in fact, there were other factors that caused Barcelona to win the trophy. one of which is the decline in the performance of its rival squad in La Liga. but still, Xavi's hard work must be appreciated even though what they show is not always a good game.

This season, Barcelona should perform much better than last season. considering some of the newcomers they brought in in the last summer window, Barcelona could be a much stronger and flexible team in some of the systems and patterns that Xavi can implement. unfortunately, they haven't been able to realize what Xavi wants. in fact, in several matches that Barcelona played they were only able to win ugly. Just be realistic, even though I am a Barcelona supporter. well, therefore he is the problem. Pep once said, with Gundohan joining Barcelona and the players Barcelona has. one of the giant Spanish teams could become a new force, unfortunately Xavi has not been able to make it happen. There are many factors, one of which is the players who are injured. Plus, Lewandowski is in unstable form, especially after he returned from injury.

For me, it's realistic, after all there are several teams that are stronger and more solid than Barcelona. You don't need to have high hopes of winning a trophy, just getting to the quarter-finals is already a big step forward for Barcelona. The point is that Xavi is the architect of Barcelona. If he is able to implement a suitable and ideal system, then Barcelona can become one of the teams to be reckoned with in this competition. If not, then don't expect Barca to advance or qualify from this round of 16 phase. So, let's see how far Xavi can take his squad to advance in this competition.

I haven't seen, or you could say haven't checked, whether there is an official statement issued by Real Madrid on their official website regarding Luka Modric's status. although in fact, Spanish media, Sport, reported that Real Madrid had decided not to give Modric a new contract. If this news is true and it is possible that it is because he is already 38 years old, Modric as a veteran player deserves to be given the award as a Real Madrid legend. Modric deserves to be awarded for his loyalty to the club he has played for so far, he is one of Real Madrid's genius players.

Personally, of all the current Madrid players. Modric is one of the players I really admire, although a decline in performance is inevitable due to age. However, if Madrid doesn't want to use his services next summer, that means the farewell of Modric and his Los Blancos supporters will have to be a celebration. Without Modric, Real Madrid would not have won many titles. I mean, as far as Modric with Real Madrid. well, I also read some rumors regarding Modric's resignation. So far, he has been rumored and linked with a club from the Saudi League. Apart from that, Modric is also linked with MLS, one of the clubs where Leonel Messi plays. in fact, no official statement was even made from this Croatian player. He is still loyal to playing for Madrid, even though he currently plays from the reserve bench. sometimes, Modric is not played at all. This season, Modric has only started 6 times in 13 matches so far. but because of his love for Real Madrid, he doesn't mind it even if this is his last season. I'm not a Real Madrid supporter, but what else would he be looking for other than retiring and ending his career as a Real Madrid legend.

Once again City had to be willing to accept minor results for the fourth time in the 17 matches they played, apart from that they also suffered three defeats. I'm not surprised that many people ask what's wrong with City. Pep Guardiola's squad last season was very strong, in fact in every match they always scored lots of goals. and clearly, this result will not make Pep Guaridola's mood happy and accept the final result of the match against Palace. In 8 matches at the Etihad Stadium, they have lost 3 matches with a draw. Actually, I don't want to blame the Manchester City players. especially in this match, which incidentally is that Crystal Palace is on a different level from City and at the same time based on ranking. If I refer to the statistics of the match, the City players performed quite well on all fronts. they had 74% ball possession, 19 total shots, 9 on target, 5 big chances. Likewise, from a tactical and technical perspective, City is far superior to its opposing team. So why did this match end in a draw, even though they were already 2-0 up? In fact, Pep only made one substitution and that was in the final minute. City actually played well in this match, every player did their job well. Maybe there were only two players who didn't play optimally, namely, Foden and Alvarez. however, a team plays together and they do quite well based on the statistics I referenced. Unfortunately, City was unlucky in this match with two goals scored by the opposing team. I couldn't see clearly whether Mateta was caught offside or not. what is certain is that the goal was recognized. second goal, from the penalty spot. If I refer to the match highlights, it should not be without any fouls committed by City's back line players. But because I didn't watch this match, I can't assume too much. In essence, in this match City was unlucky in my opinion. and one more thing, I don't understand what Pep Guardiola did with Rico Lewis. these players, in every match, are always rotated. I can't understand what Pep actually wants. But we'll see, there's still a lot of action left and City is a strong team. like last season. they were able to do it even though they were several points behind Arsenal. especially, if Pep is serious about playing the standard that he will use as his mainstay pattern later.

In the end, Nice was defeated by a promoted team, even with a fairly large score, Nice was unable to beat Le Harve. even though Nice actually controlled the game, and even technically Nice was superior to the home team in this match. however, of the 13 total shots, 4 were on target, only one of which they converted into a goal, and that too was a consolation goal in the minutes before the game ended. Nice's problem is not because the coach has not found an ideal system or even an effective strategy, but because the quality of Nice's strikers cannot be relied on. Honestly, I don't mean to underestimate Nice, but the fact is that they don't have a sharp striker to be their mainstay up front. as we can see, from the 16 matches played by Nice, they were only able to score 17 goals. It could be said that Nice is only able to score 1 goal per match. although in reality, this is not the case. IMO, what differentiates the Nice squad is because their defensive line plays quite disciplined. and at the same time, Nice was able to win the match even though they only scored one goal. In this match, what the Nice coach implemented did not run smoothly. In fact, the home team played more with the old pattern, namely 4-4-2. In short, this system is more about playing defense and only relying on counter attacks. It was proven that Le Havre only had 38% ball possession, but they had 3 counter attacks, 3 shots from the counter attack and 1 chance from the counter attack which they converted into a goal. It seems that the quick surprise goal scored by the home team made Nice more open to playing to catch up. unfortunately, the home team increased their lead and in the end Nice fell with a score of 3-1. and yeah, as I often say. If in the end, Nice will experience a decline in performance in the following matches. fortunately, Monaco was defeated by Lyon. if not, Nice will have to be willing to shift their position. With this result, it opens up an opportunity for Lille to reduce the difference in points and get closer if they win their 17th match. however, the team they were playing against was Paris Sain-Germain. well, let's just wait.

First, I want to comment on the title of this thread first. "Which one is fun, watching with a bet or without a bet?". the answer is relative, depending on each individual. to be sure, there are many sports fans who don't like gambling but are very enthusiastic when watching a show even without betting involved. Just imagine, not everyone who watches football, either in the stadium or live streaming, is involved in betting. In fact, they enjoy it regardless of the fact that the favorite team wins or loses. Likewise those involved in betting, some enjoy it by watching live, there are also those who just wait for the final result of the match. yeah, just like you feel.

As for the contents of this thread, it all depends on how someone reacts to it. If that's what you feel, it's different from what I enjoy. But don't worry, feeling tense, rising adrenaline, upset mixed with emotions, that's normal. Moreover, the team we support is not playing as we expected. just imagine, if you bet with a large bankroll. You can be sure, what you feel is mixed. except, the team you support appears at full performance and excels quickly. You will feel calm, and joy will be a complement when you do it. But if you are a fan and at the same time a lover of football, it is not just winning or losing that is our benchmark to get the essence of what we are watching. For me, as a football fan, I will enjoy it more when both teams play. especially, our favorite team. for example, I am a Barcelona fan. Sometimes, Barcelona plays their matches with ugly wins. Even though I bet and won, I didn't enjoy the satisfaction when they played the match. The situation reversed, when Barcelona lost, but they played well and aggressively. defeat is not too frustrating, because the team I idolize gives me the spectacle I want. although, they were unlucky and lost. well, what I say from the perspective of a supporter's point of view.

But actually it's not much different when I watch other matches, especially crucial matches and we bet on them. example, Leverkusen vs Dottmund. I chose Dortmund, but Leverksuen played very impressively, especially in the second half. Even though the match ended in a draw, I enjoyed what Leverkusen showed for us football fans and neutral supporters. The point is, everyone reacts differently to it. but for me, a good, interesting and entertaining show is the main point. because I enjoy football more. that's also why, I will only choose matches that I think will provide interesting viewing. Well, I hope what I say can open up your perspective regarding this thread.

losing a match is a common thing, despite the fact that Bayern has competitive squad depth. in fact, as a whole, the Bayern Munich squad played badly even though they controlled the game, and previously Bayern had even shown signs of a decline in performance. drew against Copenhagen, scored narrowly against Koln and lost to Franksfurt. but that was the previous week. In the match against Stuttgart, Tuchel knew very well what he would do with his squad. In particular, they can be more focused after playing the group stage matches in the Champions League. and because this match will be broadcast on the 18th, we can review it for these two teams later. but if I have to assume or even speculate, Bayerm will win the match against Stuttgart. Well, let's just wait when this match is held later.


Leverkusen vs Frankfurt. Well, this match looks like it will provide quite an interesting match. I'm not too sure at the moment, because I have a lot to research. but if we talk about Leverkusen, of course winning the match against Frankfurt at the BayArena is a result that Leverkusen must get. in particular, FrankFurt's performance is not very stable. apart from that, winning this match will be very important for Xabi Alonso's squad. because they need full points to widen or maintain their distance from Bayern Munich. Unfortunately, Leverkusen only produced minor results in their two matches in the Bundesliga, drawing against Dortmund and Stuttgart. Uniquely, the Leverkusen vs Frankfurt match will be interesting for me, if we refer to the H2H of these two teams. In the last five meetings, the two teams have always won when playing at home, whether it was Leverkusen or Frankfurt. But make no mistake, if Frankfurt is able to beat Bayern, it is not impossible for them to beat Leverkusen at BayArena, Leverkusen's headquarters. Moreover, referring to meetings between these two teams, they always produce lots of goals. Let's just wait, and we'll review it later. because, this is quite interesting even though Leverkusen is superior.

IMO, this match is important for the two teams who will fight in the next few hours. even though Bilbao plays at its own headquarters, it won't be easy to overthrow Atletico Madrid, which is also quite a strong team. however, if we refer to the last two meetings, both home and away, Bilbao was unable to win the match when they met Atletico Madrid. the difference this season, Bilbao is a little better. of the 5 matches they played in La Liga, 3 matches were wins and two matches ended in a draw.  also, Bilbao players are quite productive in terms of scoring goals. however, it's a little strange that I refer to betting options. instead, we are referring to Atletico. In this match, the home team is superior to Atletico, which incidentally is above Bilbao. but what is certain is that Diego Simeone's squad will not just let the home team beat them. In this match, Siemone will pair two established stickers, namely Morata and Griezmann. It's just that the bookies favor the home team slightly more with @2.47, while Atletico with @2.75.  The difference is small, but it's confusing enough for us to make a choice. Moreover, in the last 5 matches Atletico did not have a smooth match. 2 matches with defeats, and 3 matches with wins. Atletico have a good home record. but in away matches, in 7 matches they were only able to win 3 times, 1 draw and 3 defeats. So, it would be very natural if the bookie favored the home team a little more. However, my estimate is that Atletico will be able to advance with a win. but the ideal option in betting on Over 2.5 goals odds @1.85 to be safer. according to the scenario, there should be 3 goals in this match. Well, let's wait for the final result of this match.
