I didn't find any new rumors regarding this pure Barcelona striker, or I wasn't up to date regarding his developments.  However, according to several sources I read, Sport reports that Lewandowski could go to the Saudi League in the 2024 season. even then, a rumor report that had passed a month ago. according to the same report, Barcelona may be forced to release Lewandowski to a Saudi Pro League club that is interested in him. however, so far I really haven't heard anything regarding Lewandowski rumors other than a decline in his performance. well, if I refer to the statement that Lewandowski has made on several previous occasions, if he intends to end his career at Barcelona. so, what is the realistic reason if Lewandowski is under pressure to reject offers from several Saudi clubs who want his services. after all, it is clear, Lewandowski stated that he wanted to end his career with Barcelona. apart from that, IMO, Barcelona still needs a pure, established sticker of the caliber of Stirker from Poland. In January, there are rumors that one of Brazil's wonderkids will join Barcelona. Lewandowski's figure will be really needed even though he is currently experiencing a decline in performance.  Also, Lewandowski's ambition to make Barcelona a strong team was his choice when he left Bayern Munich, regardless of his other desire to experience playing in another league.

Well, so I have doubts about this discussion. but assuming this rumor is true, guess which club wants to bring him in. What is certain is that Barcelona will not let him go cheaply. plus, the clubs acquired by PIF already have pure stickers. with the exception of Al-Ahli with Firmino who has not been able to show his abilities throughout this season. well, before there is an official statement from Barcelona, ​​let alone from Lewandowski himself. I think this is just gossip.

It's not just for Bayern Munich that victory is important, but for all the teams competing in this competition. in fact, Bayern's performance against Frankfurt was underperforming overall. apart from that, in several previous matches Bayern did not show their usual good performance. in the match against Stuttgart, Tuchel has the task of getting his squad back on track. and yeah, they did it really well. and it is true that victory is important for Munich, especially to show that there is a gap between the two teams that competed last night. apart from that, reducing the difference in points is Tuchel's target from Leverkusen. Tuchel has shown that his team is capable of becoming a strong team again. moreover, they have completed their matches in the Champions League group phase. automatically, Tuchel's priority is focused on his team's matches in the Bundesliga. apart from that, Bayern has one match postponed and that could be an advantage for Tuchel and his squad later. If Leverkusen slips in several of their matches, this means that Bayern Munich has the potential to further narrow the points gap and could even shift the position at the top of the Bundesliga standings.

In January, it is very likely that Tuchel will bring in several new arrivals to strengthen his squad both in the Bundesliga and in the Champions League. which means, Bayern Munich has the potential to become even stronger. moreover, Bayern has one match against Leverkusen. at the next meeting, Tuchel will prepare to overthrow Xabi Alonso's squad. and however, Bayern had a chance for that. plus, Bayern Munich has a winning mentality in competitions. so, IMO the one who needs to be more aware is Leverkusen, because Bayern could shift their ranking at any time. Leverkusen's consistency will be very necessary, especially when these two teams meet even though the match will be held at the BayArena. because Bayern has so far become more solid in their game, as well as the presence of Kane, he has become a goal machine for Tuchel. well, it's not in vain that they brought in the big money from Spurs. For me at the moment, or so far, Bayern's probability remains high to retain their Bundesliga title. well, if Alonso wants to break Bayern's dominance in this season, they have to be consistent until the end of the season. If so, the competition will be no less exciting than in the 2022-23 season between Bayern and Dortmund.

To be honest, I don't really dare to speculate much about Manchester City, but it looks like Haaland's injury won't last as long as De Bruyne's. the good news is that De Bruyne is scheduled to return in January 2024. in fact, there are several rumors reporting that this December De Bryune is scheduled to rejoin the main squad. however, I cannot confirm the validity of these rumors or gossip. what is certain is that, from my point of view, Pep prefers to look for the ideal system for his squad so far. we can refer to every City match, Pep always rotates his players. plus, he always changes patterns. honestly, I don't understand what Pep wants. however, it seemed like he was preparing something. or maybe, what he implemented was not in accordance with the system and game he wanted. what is certain is that if Pep only wants to win his matches, especially in the Domestic League, he can use his core line-up. but Pep doesn't do that, he always experiments and this is what makes me a little confused about City. the point is that if the City players return from their injuries, they will be ready to slaughter the team that will be their opponent. especially for the Champions League. I really believe that Pep has the ambition to defend the Champions League title they just won last season.

Talking about PSG, I'm not sure they will go far. Maybe PSG will qualify in this phase, because their opponent is Real Sociedad. but after that, I wasn't sure. but at least, I'm sure this season the PSG club management is not targeting the Champions League Trophy. referring to the matches they have played and especially away matches, Luis Enrique's squad does not meet the criteria for me personally.

Actually, in practice in gambling sessions it is not as easy as we say in this discussion. sometimes, we can play for a long time because the situation and the games we play provide enough entertainment. or in other words, the gambling session that we play takes quite a lot of time.  which means, the games we play do not immediately use up the initial bankroll quickly. the scenarios could be different, we could get a good shot. or, the game just goes around in circles with the balance not increasing much or not experiencing rapid losses. and I'm sure most gamblers experience situations like this repeatedly. unfortunately, we can lose in a short time. and what is certain is that in gambling it is difficult for us to predict whatever type of game it is. moreover, those related to games based purely on luck.

Related to what you said, this is how we should treat gambling. and most importantly, never push your luck. because, if the scenario was like that. usually the situation gets worse, our emotions of anger will get involved and the results will not be better. referring to the thread above you, to be honest we agreed to shorten the playing time. especially, when we are in winning state mode. but as I said, in practice it is not as easy as what we discussed. except, if someone is more aiming for victory and avoiding defeat. and this, in contrast to the idea of ​​playing for fun. I can play depending on how the game itself is, whether it's playing short or long. the same thing, the important thing is that we are able to manage our time to play and when to stop.

If we refer to the performance of these two teams, Girona should not have too many problems when they host the match against Alaves this morning. after all, the two teams that will compete have a gap based on ranking, as well as in terms of performance. Alaves has never won in 8 of its away matches, three draws, five defeats. while Girona has won 6 of 8 home matches, 1 draw and 1 loss. even then, when hosting Real Madrid. In this match, Michel will use his momentum to keep his squad on the right track. in other words, three points at home is the result they must get against Alaves. plus, taking back the top position of the standings which is currently temporarily occupied by Real Madrid who are only 1 point behind. Girona is as ambitious as possible to maintain their consistency, Alaves needs a win to improve their ranking and at the same time break the bad results in each of their away matches. however, it is not an easy job for the away team to beat the home team, especially the week before Girona successfully beat Barcelona. high motivation will bring Michel's squad into this match with enthusiasm. well, Girona should be able to win this match quite smoothly. moreover, it seems that Alaves will play offensively based on the line up predictions that I got. Girona's -1 handicap option with odds of @1.85 is the ideal choice, at least the home team must score one goal in this match.

Not only in this competition, but Xabi Alonso's squad did the same thing in the Bundesliga. so far they are unbeaten, both in the Europa League and in the Bundesliga. in the group H phase, Leverkusen did not have any opponents who made things difficult for them. not much different from Liverpool, they also don't have tough opponents. however, Leverkusen was much more consistent when playing their matches. well, IMO, whatever team Leverkusen plays against in the round of 16, they should be quite ready to face it. yeah, considering that Leverkusen plays their match in the Bundesliga. they always appear impressive, as did the match against Bayern Munich. so, it would be very natural if Xabi Alonso's squad became one of the serious challengers in this competition. I have quite a basis in assessing this team, both technically, tactically and in performance. the point is, Xabi Alonso's squad displays a solid game in almost every match. so, I would say the opposite. the team that will meet against Leverkusen later must be alert and not underestimate them. Liverpool is no exception, in fact Leverkusen is quite ready to become a tough challenger apart from the other teams who were thrown out of the Champions League. but before that, let's just wait for the playoffs and which teams have the right to qualify for the next phase. in essence, in the match, the match will actually apply to all teams. so, not for Leverkusen. in fact, Liverpool is no exception. Well, let's just enjoy it, especially if the matches offered by this competition are crucial matches.

Ah, I missed this match, and I just found out that Al Ettifaq lost to Al Taawoun with a score of 0-2. in fact, Steven Gerrard will have difficulty competing in this competition, especially to get into the top four of the standings. in fact, they only bought Jordan Henderson at a fairly expensive price. even then, it is far from the transfer value of the clubs acquired by PIF. in fact, Moussa Dembelle was brought in as a free agent, but he was only able to score 7 goals in his 10 matches. as for other foreign players, their performance is not so stable. but if I refer to their performance, they didn't play badly. Maybe because Moussa Dembelle just started playing again, whether it's because he was injured I don't really know. in fact, in the match against Al Taawoun he underperformed. in the last 6 matches played by Al Ettifaq, it seems that Steven Gerrard has tried to experiment by making several rotations. the result did not match his expectations. 4 draws, two losses. so, this team needs new ammunition that has quite a lot of potential. especially, local players whose games are really not that reliable. so, it's natural that Steven Gerrard is not able to display the game or system he wants. after all, Al Ettifaq is not filled with star players, and the only one is Jordan Henderson. even then, he plays as a midfielder. and the question is, will the coach be fired. I don't think it's time yet, considering that the depth of Al Ettifaq's players needs more than that. but we'll see, it could be that the club management replaces this legendary Liverpool coach. next week, Steven Gerrard's squad will play a tough match visiting Al Nassr's headquarters. Let's see if Gerrard can put up a fight against Al Nassr, let's wait and see.

And in the end, the Lille vs Paris Saint-Germain match ended with a score of 1-1. as I posted above, this match has the potential to end in a draw. however, to be safer in betting, the Under 3 goals option with odds @1.89 is safer and more ideal. considering that Lille is playing at home, and in their 5 matches they have not lost. that's why I speculate that this match will be tough. apart from that, initially I thought that Luis Enrique would implement a 4-4-3 system. but in fact, he prefers the 3-4-2-1 pattern. it could be that Enrique will further strengthen the system he has implemented to become his mainstay. Remembering that in the match against Dortmund, Enrique used the same pattern. however, it seems that the system he wants is not what he wants, in fact there are several players who underperform. apart from that, Enrique has rotated several of his players again. as a result, this match ended in a draw. whereas previously, Paris Saint-Germain had swept 8 matches with a win. in this match, Lille stopped their victory in Ligue 1. Based on statistics, the PSG players played the match well. However, there are some who play not optimally. as for the course of the match, overall the two teams played quite evenly even though PSG was slightly superior on technical grounds. but in terms of opportunities, Lille has a better chance. With this result, it doesn't affect PSG's position at the top of the Ligue 1 standings. moreover, in this match Enrique was really experimenting with systems, patterns and rotations. As for the home team, a draw does not make their position safe in the top 4 of the standings. but at least, they avoided defeat. and if PSG players don't make blunders, it looks like PSG will win this match even though it will still be with a narrow score. as a result, both teams shared points in this 16th match.

Leverkusen, still maintained its performance, played well in the match against Frankfrurt. I wouldn't be surprised if Xabi Alonso's squad would score at least 2 or 3 goals in this match. that's why, I think the Over 3 goals option is the ideal one. but unfortunately, Fankfurt were unable to score a goal or at least reduce their defeat against Leverkusen. In fact, Fankfurt mostly did not move when playing their match at BayArena, Leverkusen's headquarters. overall, Leverkusen players played very well and they deserved to win this match. and I agree with what you say, the fact is that Leverkusen doesn't spend a lot on expensive players. however, this team played their match very solidly. the coach and the Leverkusen players have very good chemistry. so, so far they have not experienced defeat in their 15 matches even though 3 of them ended in draws. and it seems that Leverkusen will continue to progress with a positive trend with the next opponents they will face later, unless Leverkusen is underform. but so far, Alonso continues to ensure his squad is on the right track.

As for Bayern Munich, it's like Leverkusen. I previously thought that Stuttgart would at least score a goal, but in fact these two teams show differences in quality and team level. even though Stuttgart actually dominated ball possession, there was not a single opportunity to endanger Bayern Munich in this match. in the end, Stuttgart had to admit that their squad was not yet on par with Bayern Munich. interestingly, as far as I've seen, Kane tends to score easy goals. however, every time he scores, he is in the right position. there's no need to doubt his instincts as a Munich goal machine. He scored two goals in this match. so, Kane has scored 20 goals. in the end, moving away from a 4 goal difference from Serhou Guirassy who was previously above Harry Kane. well, both teams won the match and the competition remains increasingly serious, especially for these two teams.

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.
