Both Inter Milan and Juventus have equal  chances of winning the title so far. From the  beginning of the season we felt that the  Inter Milan team  was probably stronger  than Juventus. Because Inter's players have the ability to score a lot of goals. On the other hand, Juventus'  attack is a bit weaker than Inter Milan. However,  Juventus have made a difference in their overall performance. Now their performances are more structured and powerful.

In the last few matches,  Juventus' attack has performed well. Juventus players have scored 10 goals in the last three matches and have not conceded a single goal. From this it can be understood that the Juventus team is now very strong. If this consistency can be maintained, maybe Juventus will be able to occupy the top spot in the table very soon.
Well Inter Milan and Juventus are both leading the Serie A and none of them seems to go slow for the other. At the start of the season, many saw Inter as favorites because of how sharp their attack looked and was shaped and they've maintained that very good form till this point, Ac Milan that made everyone believe athat they'll perform very well at the beginning of the season doesn't look very tough as they were.

 Juventus weren’t clinical in front of goal and this was one thing they were lacking as a team and this alone is what a team needs to win title. Surprisingly, Juventus picked up form and now scoring more goals than usual and this is pretty What’s needed to keep Inter up and doing.This has made the Juventus team pretty strong and fierce and one that’ll have to be defeated if Inter wants a shot at the title.

Yes, last season Bayern Munich were really lucky, they were at the point of despair in defending their title because the championship match was in the hands of Dortmund, but as I said that they were really lucky in the end they could still defend the title because of the failure made by Dortmund in the decisive match at the end of the season. And yes this season they look different, there seems to be a slight decline in performance there and in addition there are newcomers whose performance cannot be doubted, namely Leverkusen as we know that they are very strong and have good consistency in maintaining the top of the standings.

Since this season began, to be honest, from the few matches they have passed I was really disappointed when I saw their defeat against Frankfurt with a landslide score and the latest was in yesterday's match against Werder, this is a defeat that is really hard to believe, even though in terms of statistics Bayern Munich is far above Werder, and this result also makes me and maybe some other people put doubts on Bayern Munich's next match against Union Berlin, however I think there is no reason for Tuchel to waste opportunities like this again because catching Leverkusen's points is the main goal if they still want to defend the title.
Bayern Munich have declined in performance not just in the league but generally and this already has caused a lots of worry for the fans. They’re not firing like they usually do and yes, they were behind last season but they won the title after Dortmund fell off at the last minutes. They better sit up cause they might not be as lucky as last season, cause Leverkusen don't look like a team that would give up anytime soon.

 This season things are pretty looking different especially as Leverkusen aren’t seen on going or giving up anytime soon. They’ve maintained consistency and that alone rings a loud bell to Bayern Munich But you see Bayern falling to some defeats and you wonder if they’ll even be able to stop this formidable Leverkusen. Well the season is still pretty long and holds alot, let’s see how it goes for the team in general.

Europa league is indeed quite different where we rarely see traditional big clubs, Madrid and Liverpool, won this competition. The Europa League has a history of delivering unexpected outcomes, and underestimating any opponent can lead to surprising results. Big clubs rarely put UEL as their priority that makes it signifant for the element of surprise. Teams like Bayer Leverkusen, which have been performing impressively, pose a legitimate challenge.

The parity among the teams in the Europa League is an essential point to consider. This underscores the competitive nature of the Europa League, with teams of similar quality vying for success. This tournament also requires consistent performance, adaptability, and resilience, regardless of a team's perceived strength. It's a fine cautious approach to acknowledge Liverpool's strength but wisely caution against underestimating the competition and highlight the potential for surprises in the Europa League.
The Europa League which doesn’t feature much big clubs has it’s own surprises and that’s one big deal that makes the competition have surprises. We don’t have much big clubs competing there so we probably have some smaller teams showing up to a team you thought will go through which is what makes the tournament more interesting.

 The competition needs utmost concentration amd consistency to be able to succed and we see big teams being a bit relaxed in this competition because they see their opposition as less. Then the result then send a shocker to them and that what makes this competition crazy. Liverpool and Leverkusen are the only teams I know to be consistent and could probably be the finalists but they’ll have to be very cautious of small clubs or opponents.

I think I this year African cup of nations, we have seen the worst performance from the the top teams with rich history in the competition, just take a look at ivory coast the host nations, they are already out as it stance, they are now just hoping and praying to be among the best losers.

How will cape Verde island top a group that have the likes Pharos of Egypt and the black 🌟 star of Ghana? The both top teams have performed really badly according to their level in African football, and the Ghanaian national team have been the worst of them all, only 2 point in possible 9, in their own case the are entirely out. With the way the top teams are playing in this competition I think their is more surprising result coming, because Nigerian performance haven't been good either, they are just good at grinding out results, even though their performance have been relatively poor, lets just watch out for the other top guys to look how they are going to perform today and tomorrow.
Well AFCON is seen to be one very tough competition after the EUROS and this year’s edition of AFCON haven’t failed to offer its own surprises. Normally it’s always said that in the AFCON we don’t have huge number of goals in a match but in this year’s edition, we’ve got most matches having 4 goals.

 Talking about top teams underperforming, Ivory Coast securing just 3 points out of possible 7-9 is pretty crazy. Let’s not even go to Group B which is being topped by Cape Verde an Island that doesn’t stand a match to  Egypt or Ghana, that’s crazy as we see Ghana struggling in this group and are obviously out. Nigeria, yea qualified but have just had only 1 goal they worked well apart from the Penalty awarde against the host. Well I think this AFCON will take it’s shape from the Quarter Finale because I know we’ll still have some surprises in the Round of 16.

Arsenal's victory only helps their position remain in 3rd place, predicting the EPL title this season. If Liverpool succeeds in consistently winning until the end of this season, of course Kloop will bring the EPL title this season to Liverpool. We probably cannot underestimate Liverpool's strength at this time. This is even though we know that Manchester City is recovering from its downturn since KDB's return and waiting for Haaland to return to join will perfect Manchester City playing in full with a main squad that could be said to be the best.

To be honest, I'm not too sure about Arsenal and Aston Villa in the competition for the EPL title this season. I think Liverpool is the one that Guaridola really takes into account in the competition for the EPL title. Moreover, currently Liverpool is still consistently at the top of the standings and Kloop must continue to convince the children. his team at Liverpool to be able to maintain their position at the top of the standings now, even though Arsenal and Manchester City will be tough competitors for the title this season.

There are two matches that Liverpool have to face after winning against Bounemouth, namely Chelsea and Arsenal. This will determine who is the best at the top of the standings. If Liverpool succeeds in beating these two clubs, it is certain that their path will be easy in the future in winning the EPL title.  Grin
Talking about the EPL title challenge, well there are just two serious clubs, City and Liverpool. Liverpool have showed strength im the 0-4 win to Bournemouth and this has come with the absence of Salah. Well Arsenal are now back in the race for title, with their recently recovered form they could suprise everyone this season, well let's see how it goes, cause the Premier league is filled with suprises.

 City are now getting the full squad back on track and are willing to challenge Liverpool and that’s pretty possible especially if the squad is back complete. City are defending champions and they came from behind to overtake Arsenal for the title, that alone is enough confidence they needed. Arsenal and Villa aren’t serious yet to be called title contenders especially as they don’t have the matching squad depth of City and Liverpool, so I think Arsenal and Villa will only try to secure UCL spot than pretty chasing for the league title. Arsenal will need some key signings especially in attack so as to challenge City or Liverpool.
1406  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 23, 2024, 07:35:39 PM

Liverpool will face Chelsea and Arsenal after the victory against Bournemouth, I hope they are not hampered in those two matches because if they are hampered in the end Manchester City will overtake them, there are still several matches that are certainly not easy for Liverpool to get through this season. Therefore, we cannot know how hard Liverpool will maintain their consistency even though Moh Salah will also return to Anfield.

But I think Manchester City will continue to compete with Liverpool at the top of the standings because in my opinion Aston Villa and Arsenal will not compete with the two clubs above, they do not yet have sufficient strength and are consistent properly so it is difficult to predict which Aston Villa and Arsenal will enter. clubs competing for the title this season. So far only Manchester City and Liverpool, I also want to inform you that Arsenal is rising from adversity. I hope Arsenal or Chelsea's meeting against Liverpool will not disappoint all Liverpool supporters. I hope they can win the title this season.
Mo Salah is out due to injury from AFCON and owing to these we don’t know how much of an effect it’ll have on this Liverpool side. They’re going to be facing chelsea and Arsenal who’re also top teams, especially Arsenal who’s trying to fight for the title too. Liverpool might begin to experience tough times without their key player, against this top teams, well Chelsea might not be too tough, but Arsenal are currently like a wounded lion and a back in form for the title race, so it's going to be a tough one for Liverpool.

 Any slip from Liverpool in any of these matches, will get Manchester City closer to them on the log and I know Liverpool don’t want this pressure yet.  Yes, City are the major competitors Liverpool have especially as Arsenal or Villa are not serious and confident yet to pose a challenge. Well I hope the match between Arsenal or Chelsea won’t be one Liverpool will want to forget in a hurry especially as any of this match could make them lose on the title.

Benzema situation at Al Ittihad is still uncertain because rumoured is he has conflict with Marcelo Gallardo because he was not liked training method from Marcelo Gallardo so Benzema want to leave Al Ittihad and that's why some of big European clubs has starting to showing their interest to him but on the other side Al Ittihad owner still hope Benzema want to stay longer at this team because they feel Benzema still important for this team so both parties still under negotiation to discuss about this issue

As far i know Benzema is from Lyon academy which mean he was came from this club and people starting to know him after promote to Lyon senior team Benzema was performing very impressive at that time so that's why some of big teams were interested want to buy him but he has decide to choose Real Madrid and at this team people starting to know Benzema as world class player especially during playing with Real Madrid Benzema has help this team to gets plenty of trophies and actually before joining Al Ittihad last summer Lyon owner was attempts to bought Benzema from Real Madrid but unfortunately Benzema choose Al Ittihad and previously Benzema has been said he want to return to Lyon before retired from football and if this rumour is true i think Lyon is the right club for him now
Benzema hasn’t been happy at Al Ittihad even though he’s tried to always come through for the club when called upon. But right now with this 2nd feud with him and club management I think this will make him force a move out. Especially if Henderson can get a move out then maybe he can also, well left for me I think he'll leave the club since several clubs are said to be interested in him.

 Pretty interesting is he’s got top clubs in Europe and England specifically already bidding for him and that could even be the go ahead signal he wants. He’s also from the French Club,Lyon where he harnessed massive popularity. The club isn’t doing pretty well in the league yet and he could probably be the savior of his parent club if he return amd that’s very possible especially with his situation at SPL.

There are new rumors saying that Cristiano Ronaldo asked Al-Nassr to bring in Casemiro this year. It looks like Cristiano Ronaldo really needs a defensive midfielder like Casemiro in his dream line-up and it seems like Al-Nassr can't refuse the wishes of one of their star players. This will be the third reunion for Cristiano Ronaldo and Casemiro if the transfer is successful. However, currently Casemiro, who is still defending Manchester United, is still under contract until 2026 and perhaps making up for the costs is not cheap with the remainder of the contract.

But that is not a problem for the Saudi league team, especially since the investment they are making to continue adding European players to their league will still continue and it is possible that if Casemiro is interested in trying the Saudi league then he can come to Al-Nassr. Well, although it is not certain that this transfer news could happen at the end of the season and it does not rule out the possibility that Casemiro will want to stay longer at Manchester United.
Based on the agenda of the Saudi Pro League striving to create visibility and awareness in the European space with the major goal of ensuring an expanded sports market, the clubs find themselves in a situation where there's less utilization of local players. These players have no doubt some certain level of effects to a club but the aims of these clubs won't allow for the players to be used. It'll only make sense that a policy be put in place for the use of local players in every team but I don't think that'll be enough to take them to where they visioned the league to get to.

 SPL wants to be broadcasted and be seen worldwide and this makes for the rapid purchase and push for European stars who'd cause focus to gradually be shifted to their league. If the local players are entertained, then there'd definitely be no room for this hot caked stars in Europe and in the long run, it won't give them the focus they want to get. All things in the SPL currently occurs as a planned activity, and they are all working towards a set goal. It's only a gradual process before the impacts are seen.

PSV's dropping of point isn't appearing to be as a surprise but I didn't expect it with as small team as Utrecht because PSV played much better in that game, even had more chances much better than Utrecht did, Utrecht was lucky after which they safeguarded their goal. It's okay to drop point at a time because you can't stay 100% throughout the season, PSV still have a very good distance away from the team at the second position with about 10points difference so they are still very safe even with the draw gotten against Utrecht, Ajax's improvement is definitely getting them somewhere before the end of the season.

It's very much possible Ajax gets to the third position on the table because they have been able to maintain a good winning record of which if the still maintain they can get to the third position soon but getting to the first is almost impossible this season.
The Eredivise is competitive no doubt and consistency works very much for the teams there. It's winter season and so the teams ought to brace up to gain enough grounds ahead of post winter break. PSV and Ajax are doing explicitly well in the league as they've been able to keep up with game victories too.
For Alkmaar, they're lagging behind and it's really taking toll on them and their points on the league table too.

 They've just got to find a balance and get back to their pace. Their league isn't even as competitive as other European leagues as there are just a few teams that are tough in their play. They can still meet up with points and stay at a good spot on the table too. Congrats to Ajax and PSV, they're good and are growing better gradually regardless of the little loopholes that they're having too. The second half of the season may likely take different turn in the league as it's believed that the various team managers will make new and better strategies to increase team's performance too.

The impressive performance of Real Madrid deserves to go with the trophy this season, but what many are thinking will be the barrier to their victory is Manchester City, but to me, I can say that Real Madrid will surely win the trophy, although all how you rank those teams up is looking more like a sure prediction because it might work that way, and Barcelona deserves their position. You put them as the 6th because of their poor performance this season. I see no reason that Barcelona will even think to reach the semifinals because their performance is not up to the standard, but we can’t just conclude.

Inter Milan and Arsenal performances are all the same, but if you compare with effective consideration, you will see that Arsenal performance is somehow more than Inter Milan, but I believe more in Inter Milan than Arsenal. The positive you kept Bayern Munich as the 3rd is also ok because they are also trying their best to maintain the standard, but they should never think of winning the trophy, which is very heavy for the team.
The UCL round of 16 is sef to kick off next month and for some teams, it's going to be a serious tussle and for some it'll be a minor jump through to the next stage. Judging based on team strength, City has a better chance to advance than Copenhagen, so does PSG, Dortmund and Bayern. For the remaining fixtures, the teams are strong and the result is just unpredictable.

 Arsenal and Porto are in good form, same performance range, the probability is shaky, thesame with Napoli and Barcelona. For Madrid and Leipzig, one would say Madrid are in a better position to advance but the German side shouldn't be underrated though, they're also good in their own way. For Inter and Atletico, it's going to be a serious battle, none of them would allow the other to just go freely without making it tough. Hopefully these teams would use their home advantages wisely and to the best of their ability too.

Atletico Madrid after being beaten by Girona in Laliga with a score of 4-3 and Morata at that time was a hero for Atletico Madrid because he had scored 3 goals against Girona. and Atletico Madrid are now happy because they managed to beat Granada with a score of 0-1, but in this match Granada performed well because even though they lost, Atletico Madrid failed to score many goals and in the first half Atletico Madrid failed to score against Granada. However, Atletico Madrid's strength is also very good even though the goals scored are only a few and in fact Atletico Madrid have scored a lot of goals but unfortunately the referee considers a valid goal to be 1 goal. But unfortunately Atletico Madrid will have to work hard to become LaLiga champions this season because there are still Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and also Girona. Diego Simeone certainly has to be able to make a good strategy so that Atletico Madrid consistently wins from now on and doesn't lose so he can get the trophy this season. Now Morata is a hero again for Atletico Madrid.

Now Granada is still in 19th place and for the next match, Getafe will be Granada's opponent. I think Granada will appear confident against Getafe even though the ranking is very different, but I think Granada already has valuable experience because they have competed against Atletico Madrid, which of course has a better ranking. from Getafe.
The second half of the season just got messy for Atletico Madrid. Even after trying all they could to keep the game in their favor or end it with a share of points, the second placed Girona who was also the host had to net in a fourth goal. The game was a serious contest, both sides were reselient and all they wanted was a victory. Well they've regained their confidence after a defeat to an inform Girona by beating Getafe to push them ahead.

 Atletico Madrid came ahead recently to gain back enough confidence after their win against Real Madrid. This is seemingly all they need to push ahead in subsequent games. They still have weeks to go and there's kinda ample time to come up on the league table. However with their current form, I think it they'll definitely qualify for the top 4, but that's if they continue to maintain for a longer period before the league is over.

fenerbahce 1 - 1 samsunspor

This was a game in which on paper Fenerbahce would easily win and maintain an advantage over Galatasaray. That was on paper, on the field things went very wrong for Fenerbahce, the saddest aside is that Fenerbahce managed to score a goal very early and had more possession of the ball, but the problem was the lack of skill when it came to being close to the opposing goalkeeper, Fenerbahce failed to score goals in that game and this comes from a previous game in which Fenerbahce also failed to score more than 1 goal in the game against Gaziantep. I think the Fenerbahce players might be tired. Maybe this is just a short phase that Fenerbahce's attackers are having a bad time. But with this draw, Fenerbahce will once again have the same points as Galatasaray, who will do everything to take the top spot from Fenerbahce.

Trabzonspor 1 - 5 Galatasaray

I confess that this was a very unexpected result for me, I even bet that Galatasaray would win this game, but I wouldn't have imagined that Galatasaray would score many goals in this game, Trabzonspor is not a very weak team, on the contrary, it is a Being in third place in the table, they are sometimes unstable but in the last few games they seemed consistent to me, so having conceded 5 goals in this one must have been a big concern for the Trabzonspor coach. One of the big signs that Trabzonspor's defense was showing serious signs of weakness, and because in the last 3 games Trabzonspor conceded at least 1 goal in the last 3 games, so when they were to play against a strong opponent like Galatasaray it was inevitable that they conceded a goal, but conceding 5 goals was very exaggerated

This season the fight for the title is very strong and it is difficult to predict which of these two teams will become champions. I'm rooting for Fenerbahce, I hope this time they can win the title
The Turkish Super Lig is one league that's been having a wide point margin between their title holder and the other teams but this season both top teams have actually been playing averagely and their end result is more or less thesame with a difference in just the goal margins. It's not so bad though but it'd mean that one team would have to put extra work to their game delivery if they want to secure the trophy.

 Fernabache and Galatasaray are good teams with good quality of players and both are capable of making the contest tough. But we await who'd be the greatest of them all. Besiktas on the other hand are trying their best in what they do, they still have greater possibilities of excelling in the league and when efforts are out in the team, it'll yield good outcomes. Galatasaray and Fernabache are making the struggle for the league trophy more difficult because they are giving thesame victory energy and aura, the points gathered, the goal differences, they're seemingly the toughest team in the league and their victory is so certain.

 In a long while in the Turkish League, deciding the league's winner will take a while because these two teams are good at what they do. They play to win, and their next league game would undoubtedly end up as a victory for them both because their opponents are the opposite of them in all aspects. They're making the league's football more fun especially when it has to do with these two teams. We await the challenge amongst themselves and we're anticipating the winner. Do not be surprised though that the points will be shared eventually by both teams.

It is very feasible and the salary issue for these two players must be resolved first. Both are good players and Barcelona should not be like a poor team that cannot appreciate the performance of its players. I am very annoyed because these two players do not get a decent salary and are instead made to serve on very small salaries. It is very selfish to see the requests of those who want to make them permanent but cannot be accompanied by a decent salary.

I think Barcelona should have the courage to cut the salaries of other important players like Frenkie De Jong and for those who don't know, Frenkie De Jong is the player with the biggest salary at Barcelona, around 725,000 euros per week. Isn't this salary too excessive for just one player and if you look at the impact on the club it's actually not that big and there are still many other players in the squad who have important roles. I think Barcelona should not be like PSG who always prioritizes Mbappe and here Barcelona also realizes that they are not a team with good finances.
Felix has always been a good player, he's a loan player no doubt but he's performed more than he did with his original club. Barcelona has given him the type of tempo he needs to play with. They're a good and committed team and their players are coordinated. The coach himself is young and knows what he needs and builds his team to deliver rightly, It won't be bad to watch Felix stay to do more at Barcelona.

 Atletico didn't favor him as much as Barcelona has. He's now out of his shell and has built more confidence in himself as well. I personally don't think that after being watched to grow by Barcelona, then they'd let him off their camp. And I'm convinced that he also would want an extension with the Spanish side.
What kills a team is favoritism and it's one factor that should be worked on.

 Coaches should not involve favoritism as it may have an impact on the game outcomes and as well cause a whole lot of technical errors to occur and it may affect the players' conditions. They need to be encouraged and made to put in efforts to working in the team. It'll build their ball playing abilities and causes positivity in every game outcomes.

I dont think Roma should put a significant target for De Rossi to achieve. The limited timeframe of 6 months does present a significant challenge for De Rossi to fully showcase his coaching abilities and make substantial changes to the team's playing strategy. Adapting to a new role as a coach and implementing changes within such a short period, especially against strong opponents like Inter Milan, can indeed be a daunting task.

A clear and effective playing strategy is crucial for a team's success, and if implemented successfully, it could contribute to Roma's improvement in the long term. De Rossi may need to consider a complete overhaul of Roma's playing strategy demonstrates an awareness of the need for bold and decisive actions to bring about positive changes. Transfers can be pivotal in shaping the team according to the coach's vision. Utilizing the transfer window to bring in quality players aligns with the idea that strengthening the squad with strategic signings can have a significant impact on the team's performance. But I doubt De Rossi will have previllege to sign any player he wants to execute his plan, remembering Mourinho faced that isssue in the past.
Roma are a good side. Their manager Mourinho has some kind of special ability to raise up a team into a pretty much successful squad. Even with the loopholes they're faced with, he's still been able to help the team stand out in some games. Injury has definitely been a number one deprivation of a team's performance but the manager has been able to make do with the players and squad he's got available and even though not perfect as expected, they're not relenting in their efforts.

 Although their performance against teams in the league didn't fully get good commendation but still they tried to secure the points to themselves. The European competition would definitely favour them, they only need to strive to win a ticket. Good thing also that their striker is at his peak performance and he's always capable of delivering the team to victory in dire moments. I'd admit that the team and manager are very much compatible maybe it's the resonance that's natural or maybe Mourinho's great coaching ability at work but at the moment, the situation in the team is in safe hands and patiently and gently, they'd stride to the spots they want to be.

Leverkusen is growing rapidly in the hands of Xabi Alonso. This season is Xabi's second season managing the German club and the results have been extraordinary. Until now, the performance of Xabi's team has been extraordinary, the series of positive results they have achieved has made this team the leader of the Bundesliga standings with a difference of seven points. The latest victory over RB Leipzig further confirms that Leverkusen will become champions this season, but even though the opportunity is visible, Leverkusen cannot feel proud because the season is still very long.

Seeing the competitor's increasingly confident situation certainly made Bayern Munich start to worry. If you don't want to see Xabi Alonso partying then Thomas Tuchel has to do something to stick to Leverkusen. Of course, the Bavarians still have the opportunity to continue pursuing, at least Munich must maximize the match that will bring these two teams together on 11 February before preparing to face the Champions League. However, if you lose points again and the gap widens, it will be very difficult for Tuchel to bring Munich back to being champions.
Currently, Leverkusen's consistency has put them in the top contending spots for the Bundesliga title. Even though it's not so certain yet as there are still games to determine the victor, there's every possibility that there may be change of hands this season.
Munich are doing their best to match up the intensity of contest Leverkusen are putting forward.

 Definitely they can hold onto the pressure for a while and for Leverkusen, they are not resilient in pursuing that major aim. Alonso and his squad aren't giving up and weekly they put up a whole different energy towards that trophy race. The time is sure going to be tough for all their opponents and the games will go almost to the last end before a victor can be confirmed. Currently they're the only team that's still maintained an unbeaten run in Europe.

I think from the past record and performance of a team you can easily predict how far they will go in a competition and looking at the past record of the two teams you mentioned namely Real Madrid and Manchester City, I think they will keep getting highest ratings because they have proven past records especially the Real Madrid team who happens to have so many young and experienced players in the team.

Not forgotten the performance of the other teams this season, I think they have have had good performance especially in their local league, Inter Milan has been in great form as they are the league leaders in SeriaA while Arsenal is among the top4 in the EPL but there is a doubt in them if they can maintain good performance when they play both UCL and league matches. Barcelona is not looking like a team that can go far in the Champions League this season since they are struggling in the Spanish league since this season I doubt if they can face and overcome top teams when they get to round of 6 or 4 where they are likely going to face teams like Bayern Munich, Manchester City or Real Madrid.
Well not just from past records, when you check the current form of a club, you’ll know how excellently well they can perform. When you check Real and City then you can tell these 2 clubs aren’t gonna slow down on their performance anytime soon. Especially who are the title defenders in several competitions, they're a big club and they'll do anything to remain in a very good form.

 They’ve got the quality that’ll be able to last them for a while and that’s what’s needed to succeed. These teams have a very good squad depth that can last a while and one added advantage is that the whole squad is very determined on winning. Other teams in the UCL have done well, Inter Milan and Barcelona but I don’t think these 2 will be a match to City or Real Madrid as these are 2 teams with enough quality and depth.

I have to admit that Liverpool is in the sky with the performance of players who are strong enough without having any doubts to get rid of every team that will prevent them from winning the EPL title and I am amazed by Jota and Nunez sharing the score with a solid partnership with very high confidence even though they are competing away.
this success has made Klopp more confident that competing for the title with Man City will be an easy task and without relying on Salah who is currently injured, so that when certain players are injured, Klopp still has many alternatives to stay at the top of the standings.
however, Liverpool also have to be careful and remain consistent because Man City mainstay players will soon return to the field, such as Haaland, who could be Liverpool destroyer and on the one hand, since KDB returned, Man City performance has become better.

regarding Arsenal, I can't say for sure whether this team will be able to show its strength again, but yesterday's match improved its reputation and if Arsenal are able to be consistent again, I think the fight for the EPL title will be very difficult because there are 3 teams that will fight to get to the top of the standings.
Liverpool this season are real on fire and they’ve proven that without Mo they can still perform At their peak. The partnership of Nunez and Jota is one that was really fun watching because these pair understood themselves and the game yesterday. They've also prove that they can keep the team going without Salah's presence.

Yes, they were the winners for Liverpool yesterday and that’s what Jurgen has been up to with this club and we must give him credit. The squad depth he’s built is making us have the high hopes that he’s ready to compete with City for the title even when they’ve got their complete squad back. Arsenal who got a victory yesterday was a big deal but I don’t think with this current squad, they’ll be able to match on with City and Liverpool for the title. Well let's see how it goes, they still got enough time let's see if Arteta and his boy would be able to match City and Liverpool.

Al-Hilal did not take that into account at all and the most important thing for them was to be able to get more exposure by bringing in Neymar. But what is happening now is very detrimental for Al-Hilal because its star player cannot strengthen the team and cannot even become a pivot in promoting the team to a wider reach. Apart from playing at Al-Hilal, Neymar's other function is to be able to get more attention from marketing to advertising, but this cannot be realized if Neymar is still injured.

Indeed, there is something quite strange and it seems as if Neymar's power is stronger here than the team that brought him and he can just choose which team he should play for and at that time Neymar chose the Brazilian national team. Here it is clear that Neymar only cares about the money Al-Hilal gave him and doesn't want to know how Al-Hilal suffered losses because he brought him in. I think Neymar is quite selfish and his considerations are always painful for Al-Hilal.

We certainly hope that Al-Hilal will not be disturbed by Neymar's absence and their current focus is clearly on winning the Saudi league and considering that their distance advantage is still too far from a team like Al-Nassr, they must prioritize their work first rather than dealing with Neymar who is not the role is so clear.
Well Neymar to Al Hilal was a big window transfer for many functions such as helping the team gain success and also building up on the team’s online presence. Neymar is out with injury already and this might not be realistic because he’s not on pitch to get the fans to watch him play lest they’re not getting that market audience they needed with his signing. Hopefully he'll recover quickly and get back on the pitch.

 Well his signing had it’s own bargain and I think they gave Neymar the upper hand in this signing. This has led to him being selfish and jus focusing on the money he’s getting from them and nothing else. Well I don’t think the club is disturbed by his absence, rather they want to offload him and bring in another European star who’ll help in building squad depth should incase Mitrovic falls out of injury. They don’t want to loose out on the league.

Today's games had surprising results. Ajax is back to its winning spirit, today once again Ajax won in a game in which they played against RKC who are currently in the last 3 positions of the table with 14 points and have a streak of 5 games without winning, They were a very easy opponent for Ajax, who knew how to take advantage of this game. Ajax managed to score 4 goals and only conceded 1 goal. With this victory, Ajax is in position number 5 and there are only 3 points left for Ajax to reach the team that currently occupies the position that would allow Ajax to remain in European competitions. This is a great achievement for Ajax, who until a few months ago were so far behind in the table that it seemed mission impossible for them to gain access to European competitions.

while Ajax is celebrating their victory and the fact that they are close to the access zones for European competitions, AZ must not be happy about Ajax's victory. This is because AZ drew in their game and with this draw they have 3 consecutive games without winning and are targets of being passed by Ajax if they lose in the next game. Looking at AZ's performance drop, I highly doubt that eventually ajax won't bypass them and take their place. another team that is also not doing well and that must not be looking favorably on this Ajax victory and Twente who lost in their game against NEC

with this defeat twente has 37 points while ajax has 31 points, if twente loses in the next games I believe that ajax could be able to occupy third place at the end of the league. Now it is no longer impossible for this to happen. Now talking about the top, honestly I see PSV as champions, I think it is very difficult for any team to be able to overcome PSV in the table. Feyenoord has been inconsistent at times, which is why I think it is difficult for Feyenoord to become champions, but in football everything is possible, if Ajax managed to get from the bottom of the table to currently be in 5th position, then it is also still possible that some team beats PSV and becomes champion
Ajax won today though against a very easy opponent but we must still credit Ajax for their win because it isn’t easy. Now they’re 3 points away from an European spot and we must commend the team for how they fought through their bad days to getting to top 5.

 Now AZ Alkmaar who’re above Ajax fell to a draw which we all knew would happen because I don’t think AZ will be a big instant for Ajax especially with an European spot in sight. Twente is another team that could come down; with these teams I’m very confident on Ajax getting an European spot for next season.

 For the league, I see PSV already as champions every other team have to battle for 2nd to 4th spot because PSV have been unbeaten in the league and have cemented their spot up there. Well kudos to Ajax as we watch what happens in the next few weeks of game play. They've fought so hard to get to the position they're currently and I'm pretty sure that they'll be in a better position in weeks to come.

When Girona played Almeria with a score of 0-0, I predicted that Girona's performance would decline because Girona couldn't beat the team at the bottom of the rankings. Now Girona showed their good abilities against Sevilla with a fantastic score of 5-1. and I was amazed by A.Dovbik's cool performance because he was able to score 3 goals against Sevilla and V.Tsigankov and C.stuani were also very great, he scored goals which ultimately allowed Girona to score 5 goals against Sevilla. I think that with Girona's success in winning the match against Sevilla, I now believe that Girona will continue to have the potential to lead the standings.

in the Copa del Rey we will look back at Girona's performance against Mallorca and I am sure that Girona will win that match and then in Laliga Girona will meet Celta. I am sure that when they compete against Celta, Girona will have the potential to win. It seems like the competition between Girona and Madrid is now getting fiercer and I am sure that the one who will be the champion this season is Girona or Madrid because if you look at the current points tally, only Girona and Madrid have got the most points and the difference in points with other teams is of course very large.

Girona's match against Sevilla I bet on Girona's win and I really enjoyed the match, it was really good and entertaining. Dovbik's appearance is really cool

Girona has been doing really well in the soccer season, surprising everyone with their great performance. Even though Girona even Girona is playing perfectly, I expected Girona to win when they faced Sevilla because they are not in a total good shape, especially since the match took place at Girona's home. The most surprising part for me was that Girona actually won with good goal margin.

 But in my opinion it still won't be that easy because to become a leader in La Liga you have to have deeper experience. even competing with popular teams in La Liga is not an easy task because popular teams have more experience with various strategies to be able to regain their position first. but I really hope there is something different this season Girona must become the leader in La Liga to see new history without the boredom of seeing every season led by a team that always dominates La Liga. Madrid for sure won't make it so easy for them and so let's anticipate how the remaining weeks of the season would turn out.
