If you look at the current point difference, it is only 4 points behind. I think it's only a matter of time until Munich returns to chasing these points and even becomes champion. I don't doubt the performance of Leverkusen and Xabi Alonso, but we are aware that Munich is truly a candidate to win number one in the Bundesliga. And when it comes to the European league, I think everyone agrees that many people talk about Liverpool's best chance of becoming champions. This is not who the champion is, but this is who has the greatest chance of becoming champion.
Currently, the opportunities are still very equal between one team and another in the European League, but when we look at the strengths of each team, of course there are many people who do not doubt the quality of the players that Liverpool has. However, we also shouldn't forget about the strength that Leverkusen currently has because in general the players at Leverkusen are still quite united and enthusiastic in fighting for victory in whatever league they play in this season.
They are indeed 4 points behind, but they still have 1 match ahead of Leverkusen, assuming they can win that 1 match, then they will reduce the gap to 1 point, it is a very tight distance that can change in just 1 match.
I have no doubt that Bayern Munich will be able to continue to press and overshadow Leverkusen, but I still have concerns about Leverkusen. Not underestimating them, because the closer to the end of the season, the greater the pressure they will get. Many clubs can initially perform promisingly but when towards the end of the season they lose their balance so that repeatedly swallow unsatisfactory results and they fail to be the best.

You are right, I think we can't blame Mbappe or a single player of PSG because they didn't get good results in the Champions League. We all know Mbappe is a good player and he will do his best for the team but he can't do everything by himself surely he needs to be in a good team and we should wait to see if Enrique can give him this chance or not because currently, Mbappe is in the good form. However, there is currently a high possibility for Mbappe to leave PSG during January, and this this case PSG should rely on other players instead of him.
Mbappe is one of the best football stars in the world and one of PSG's most important players, so PSG have high expectations from him. PSG have managed to keep a very talented player so far, no matter how talented Mbappe is we tend to forget that he is one and he will never play like 10. No matter how well a player performs in a team, if the rest of the team's players do not provide good support, then the team's performance will be null. Mbappe is performing well individually for PSG but all the other players in the team are not able to support Mbappe well due to which PSG is not getting good performance as a team. Mbappé has been heavily buzzed about outside the club in the transfer window ahead and chances are the buzz will come true.
5 points ahead of the second-placed club is a difficult gap to catch up with, yes that's because Paris Saint Germain are at the top, but if another club was in that position and Paris Saint Germain were in second place I might say different things.
Now the expectation is on Nice, they have a very strong defense that is difficult to break down, but they have a deficiency in the front line that is very difficult to create goals. They must take advantage of the transfer market to get players they can rely on up front. I'm sure if they can improve their goal productivity, then they will be a real threat to Paris Saint Germain, but if they can't improve then I'm not sure they can be a contender for Paris Saint Germain, maybe even be displaced from their current position.

The main problem Cristiano is having is the problem of not becoming champion in the arab league, so he need to win the trophy to become more important in that land.

And this year dont seem to be the one in wich he can be champion, at least until now with this Al hilal team in such good shape.
Last season we saw Cristiano Ronaldo's side win the Arab Cup and this season their performances have been consistent enough to win the Saudi League title this season. There are some clubs in the Saudi League including Al Hilal who are currently performing well and due to the good performance of those clubs, it seems that Al-Nassr may have some trouble to win the Saudi League title this season as well. We can see some effect of age taking its toll on Cristiano Ronaldo due to which we are not seeing the same performances from him that he could have before. But if the team does not rely only on Cristiano Ronaldo and if all the other players take responsibility then it will not be impossible for Al-Nassr to make the Saudi League.
I think it's too much when something that should be earned as a team becomes a burden for a player. After all Ronaldo is in a club and to become a champion it is determined by the team not individuals. I disagree if you say this is a problem faced by Ronaldo because he cannot become a champion in the SPL. Al Nassr as a team must bear that burden, because even if a player plays well but as a team still has shortcomings, then until whenever they will not become champions.
There is one player who feels this, Kane for example, he plays well, but his club still has many shortcomings so he cannot get a title in the Premier League.

There is one week left for the second half of the season to start. Bayern Munich and Leverkusen both will probably start this half with decent victories. Because their games aren't very challenging ones. I look forward to watching the Leverkusen - Bayern Munich game in the league on February 10 honestly because this game can play a great role in the championship race.

The other thing I'm curious about is whether Stuttgart will be able to maintain this great progress. Guirassy's contribution is really big to the team so far however they might lose him in January at the same time. Because he has a release clause which is quite a low amount for big teams. If they lose Guirassy then I don't think Stuttgart can finish the season in top four.  Sad
Yes, the meeting between the two will be very decisive for their position, if Leverkusen win and their performance does not decline, then they will be further away from Bayern Munich, but if they lose then Bayern Munich will be able to overtake them in the standings.
It looks like Xabi has been preparing for this, because the scenario is not far from what I said. Xabi must really take advantage of their meeting, don't lose, at least they can hold Bayern Munich's draw, even though they can't stay away, at least they can still maintain their position in the standings.
I hope these two clubs don't go down, and if they do it will be more interesting if they can sweep all the remaining matches with a win. Yes, although it is very difficult and close to impossible, but hope does not hurt.
1445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Use your winning responsibly on: January 06, 2024, 04:50:43 PM
OP has a truly extraordinary approach and mindset in his gambling involvement, he can prove that he really utilizes the money from the winnings he manages to get, honestly this is something that can make someone motivated to do the same if they manage to get a win. On the other hand I also sometimes do that, when I'm really lucky by getting the winning amount then usually I always look at the situation of my room which happens to be my bedroom room has just been renovated so it still needs a lot of items that are needed such as wall clocks, study tables or wardrobes or other decorations.

Honestly recently I also managed to get a win and when a situation like that I stopped for a moment and saw what items I needed in my new bedroom room, which in the end I found that I had to replace the broken room air conditioner and finally even though I couldn't buy a new air conditioner but at least I could still justify my broken bedroom air conditioner so that it could function again. So in essence what the OP is saying is true that if indeed we manage to get lucky in one of the sessions we do then it is better to use the money wisely than you are greedy for the sake of a bigger win but it turns out that the results do not match expectations and ultimately regret.
1446  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you gamble because you don't have sufficient money? on: January 06, 2024, 04:32:07 PM
I was in argument with someone. His view is that people who gamble are those that what they have is not sufficient for them and so they try to make more money from gambling. He said if you have sufficient money to take care of your needs that you won't think of gambling. He made reference to some rich people, who don't gamble because they have sufficient money to even gift to charity but that those rich who still gamble are only addicted to it not just because of the money. Therefore, that the percentage of the rich gambling is very small compared to those in middle class and lower class.

So my question is, is the percentage of the rich gambling lower than the middle and lower class?
gambling to some is just means of entertainment and for fun only, but we still have some set of people who sees gambling as mean of earnig money and this are those who come into gambling just to fine means of escaping their financial issues and settling up bills, but in the end, gambling is a high risk thing so they end up alwys getting disappointed and exusted at times.
For me gambling is just for the fun and why i dont gamble every day, i only gamble when i have the chance and most times I rather enjoy watching those playing instead of staking on any of the games.

That's right, people are wrong in addressing gambling so they come with the wrong understanding, as if they can get a lot of money just by gambling, even though on the other hand this is just a game of luck which as we know is very difficult to be able to get luck in a row, so with that I don't think it makes sense if someone has a goal to earn in their gambling activities, like the title the OP wrote that "people gamble because they don't have money" the weak financial situation and situation is the cause of their arrival by misunderstanding. This really must be considered because if left unchecked then they will suffer even more with the number of losses that will continue to grow slowly.

They come with the aim of taking advantage of the winning opportunities that exist in gambling by ignoring the risks that are basically much greater and can make them even experience a lot of problems, especially financial, honestly I see more poor people who come with such a mindset because maybe they only see from the side of winning opportunities and do not see the risks that are much greater.
1447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What I've learned so far as a gambler on: January 06, 2024, 04:11:37 PM
~snip~
That's right! As one wise man once said, smart people learn from their mistakes, but really smart ones learn from the mistakes of others. Can we learn from the mistakes of others all the time? No, it's impossible. We are not superhuman beings, we are just humans. And mostly we learn from our own mistakes, but in some cases, and gambling addiction is one of them, we simply can't afford the hard way of learning.
Yes, that won't be possible if we always learn from other people's experiences and mistakes. But we will find mistakes other people make intentionally or unintentionally, and that's where we learn from them. By learning from their experiences and the mistakes they make, we can develop our abilities and also try to find solutions if we experience the incident so that we can use the solutions to improve the situation. We can only continue to try to learn to be better, and in this forum, we can also learn from everything shared by members in this forum.

True, in any case learning is one of the best ways for a change for the better, in gambling of course if we feel that we have a lot of losing problems then it is clear as you suggest that we need to learn from those who are experienced or even gambling addicts, take the good and throw away the bad, on the other hand this will be really useful for us, we can see how the suffering of people who are addicted to all the problems they suffer and don't we want the same fate as them? of course, and one of the ways we can do is learn from their mistakes and change our gambling activities for the better, in the sense that we can be firmer in applying limits and always maintain self-awareness when gambling so that things that are not wanted do not happen. On the other hand I understand that it is quite difficult to do it completely but there is nothing wrong with us trying slowly so that later we can get used to it, and honestly on the other hand I also got a lot of insight and enlightenment after joining this forum and this is very useful.
1448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rich, average or poor. Who loses more? on: January 06, 2024, 03:47:54 PM
And we can conclude that people who have the possibility or potential to lose a lot of money are those rich people who cannot maintain their gambling involvement properly so that it is clear to lose a lot of money that can even make them bankrupt, yes that's right it is not uncommon to also see some of them who act excessively with the excuse of looking for more fun haha obviously absurd and what is certain is that victory is their main focus so that they act excessively. The inability to accept the real facts (defeat) caused by not understanding the basic concepts that exist in gambling makes them instead act out of control by always chasing wins to break even, will it work? maybe it can, but it is very unlikely and more cannot stand all the pressure that is there so it is not uncommon to see some of the gamblers who end up stressed or depressed.

So from the discussion that we have discussed here, to be honest, in my opinion, the conclusion is that rich, middle class or poor cannot be used as a benchmark for who wins more and who loses more, and the point is that if you overdo it then obviously you will lose more and if you are able to maintain your gambling by always applying self-control and limits as you mentioned then obviously the amount of risk will be slightly minimized.
Rich people who cannot protect their money when gambling will lose more money than people who still try to protect their money. These are the people who will then experience bankruptcy because they are more concerned with gambling than taking care of their business. However, other people will also experience the same thing in losing more money if they cannot take care of themselves while gambling. Playing gambling can make someone lose control because they always try to chase their winnings and don't try to maintain balance in gambling. It is for reasons of enjoyment that many people lose control of themselves in gambling even though they already know that when gambling, they should not use too much money because that will only make them lose more money.

We agree that anyone, whether rich, middle class or poor, can experience more losses if they cannot control themselves and always gamble excessively. So it depends on each person because if they care about themselves, they will always take good care of themselves and will not experience serious problems because they can use gambling well. They will not gamble excessively just because they want to win more.

Yes exactly as I said above that if only the rich can not keep their gambling activities well then obviously the amount of loss must be very large or even to make them bankrupt to fall into poverty, in my opinion rich or poor can not be used as a reference on how much the amount of loss they will experience, obviously according to the poor the amount of $20 is quite large but for the rich it is not a problem because they used to put a much larger amount than that, so I think this has to do with the perspective on the value of money that becomes a difference. And actually the point is very simple which is where you also said that they will only lose large amounts if they can't keep their gambling in check by always being strict on the application of limits and self-control.

It really depends on how to address and treat the gambling that we do, there are some people who only put small amounts because the goal is for fun and there are also those who put large amounts with the aim of multiplying, you can choose between the two options, if you want to suffer a lot of losses then you can choose point number two which is multiplying which in reality will only make you suffer losses slowly.
1449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe in gambling experts predictions? on: January 06, 2024, 03:19:35 PM
~snip~
Yes, there's no denying it and it's possible that what you're saying is true, I understand what you mean about gamblers having extensive knowledge in several games, honestly for that matter I might agree because the more you play the more you will be able to adapt to the game, but honestly it's nothing more than a  basic thing that if everyone does the same thing then they will also have such knowledge, it's not at all related to the name "increasing luck/winning", if you say that they can make good predictions then I would ask what do you mean by "good"? the assumption from your statement is a little bit of a certainty about the end result.

For myself, I honestly prefer  to gamble on my own merits, no matter how many winners there are out there, so I'm going to stick to my stance and understanding that gambling is just an activity to fill my empty time at the weekend that will trigger a little adrenaline, not focus on the final result and only focus on the limits that I have made before.
Gamblers' understanding goes beyond game knowledge. Understanding probability, risk evaluation, and pressured decision-making is key. Analytical skills are built over time, not only by playing. Consider that two players may play the same number of games yet have quite different takeaways. Learning depth, not playing frequency, distinguishes them. When you say "good predictions," talent and chance merge. Good here means making informed decisions, not perfect certainty

Gambling for fun rather than results is great. Accepting gambling as entertainment with restrictions is beneficial. Even with this strategy, you're practicing discipline. Gambling discipline involves choosing choices that reflect your values and boundaries, not merely knowing when to quit. This discipline, believe it or not, can be used elsewhere. While it may seem like a weekend hobby, the teachings may be significant. Accepting this may enhance your gambling and life experiences

True, their understanding seems to go beyond the concept of gambling, like they can know what will happen in the future  which is nothing more than a fantasy that comes out of their own expectations. Yes, you mentioned a good point so that we can stay safe and secure in gambling activities, understanding  what is called probabilities  or opportunities that will be able to make them take risks that they can be responsible for so that they can make decisions that they can be responsible for at the end. Honestly, what I don't understand is that people say that they can predict very well and indirectly at that time they also indirectly conclude that a good prediction will "result in victory",, when as you said that it is only an informed decision and not a certainty  that it will be 100% successful.

Of course I agree  with that, as you said, it's better for us to gamble by focusing on entertainment or fun without placing any hope on the final result, this is gambling which means we can't do anything to increase our chances of winning because it's all just It will happen if you are just lucky in one of the sessions you do, and in my opinion what we can do is maintain and implement risk management well and  firmly so that we don't suffer huge losses like those experienced by addicts out there. On the other hand, I quite agree with your idea that the habit of having good discipline in gambling activities can also be  applied to other things and be useful..
1450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: January 06, 2024, 01:30:38 PM
United already spent a lot of money on players, spending some more will not solve it, or at least they shouldn't do it at the January window and rush it, they should wait until the summer. Why? Well, from 1st of June to basically around mid September, they could get rid of anyone they want, and get anyone they want, still would need to spend a lot, but they would also get paid from many things as well.

I believe that the best thing we could assume at this point about them would be just making sure they get rid of terrible players that they had some hopes about and failed. With a new squad they will definitely be doing better next season. This can't be rushed, if they rush, they may make exactly the same mistakes they did last year.
Yes, even though they are preparing large funds to bring in a number of new players, they should not be hasty in deciding which players they will bring in, because I agree that it could be their next failure which we know better as a failed transfer.
They can learn a lot from Chelsea who spent a lot of money to bring in players, but most of the players they brought in did not bring fresh air to the club. Manchester United must be more careful in looking at a player, and also do not bring in players because they like them. Because right now I see Erik Ten Hag bringing in players based on his liking for the player, but not giving anything extraordinary to the team.
1451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: January 06, 2024, 01:13:28 PM
Exactly, Manchester City is not an appropriate opponent for Copenhagen especially now that Manchester City will played with a full squad because Kevin de Bruyne has recovered from injury so we will see a different game from Manchester City or we can call it Real Manchester City and I will say it's an easy win for Manchester City. This match will be played in February and there are still many moments to be passed but if Manchester City plays with the main squad then it doesn't have a way for Copenhagen to get points/win.
Copenhagen is not a tough opponent for Manchester City, but it is also very important not to underestimate any opponent when any team starts competing again in the Champions League. Because here all teams will use any strategy to win and those who underestimate their opponents will usually not get anything, so it is very important for Manchester City to play well even though their opponent is Copenhagen because from that opponent Manchester City can advance to the next round. if you are able to win with a good enough score.
The club that appeared in the final last season and was defeated by Manchester City will face Atletico Madrid in the round of 16. Overall, Inter Milan's performance is actually more convincing this season than last season, so they deserve to be a strong candidate in the Chmpions League this season.
This season they have only received one defeat in Serie A, while in the Champions League they escaped without tasting defeat. With statistics like that they show an increase in performance and that is good news for the competition in the Champions League. In recent seasons, clubs from England and Spain have been the dominating clubs in the Champions League, while Serie A clubs have not been able to show strong competition. But now they are slowly showing something positive again.
1452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 06, 2024, 12:55:45 PM

Yes 7 points does not seem like a huge difference, but the problem is how confident are the 2 teams above going to have bad results repeatedly? with a difference of 7 points at least 2 defeats must be received by Real Madrid or Girona and also forget that they cannot lose points, even if it is a draw. It's a tough one, because they're not relying on themselves, but they're relying on the other teams above them. When fate is in someone else's hands I think the only thing that can make it change is that they have to have a lot of luck.

It would be easier if only one team had a seven-point advantage over Barcelona, but if these are two teams, then it’s hard to believe that they will start losing points and Barcelona will win the remaining matches. I assume that further struggle will break out between Real and Girona, and for Barcelona, no matter how it sounds, the title race this season is over. Of course, Xavi will continue to try to overtake these teams, but I think that they will not be able to do this.
The same thing that I think, because if one of the two clubs declines, then there is still one other club that is above them. Let's speculate, Girona for example went down towards the end of the season and they lost a lot of games, but Real Madrid? I'm not so sure they'll go down significantly, although it could happen. And vice versa, if Real Madrid do go down, then Girona will be the one club still above them.
I agree that it's going to take some luck, because they're not the only ones in control of their situation, there are other clubs that will be in control of whether they catch up or not.
But I don't think they should focus on that, whatever the result is for other clubs they have to focus on themselves, especially now that their problems are not just that.
1453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 06, 2024, 12:37:43 PM
Inter Milan will win against Hellas Verona in both the first half and second half. Inter Milan will want to return to winning ways after playing a draw match with Genoa and extend their lead at the top of the Serie A table. Hellas Verona will not be a tough opponent for Inter Milan because they have lost 4 of their last 8 matches in the Serie A league, even losing to Salernitana at home.
Inter Milan managed to control the first half with a 1-0 win, this result is very good for Inter who are chasing victory to keep their distance from Juventus who are in second place. The second half will make it easier for Inter to control the match, perhaps additional goals will occur over the next 45 minutes. This match will be easy for Inter because Verona's quality is not comparable to theirs. This victory is very important for Inter to reorganize their plans after losing two points in the previous match.
The second half started and they started the half with a 1-goal lead. But looking at the first half, I'm a bit surprised that Verona were able to keep up with Inter Milan, despite the goal but overall they played quite well.
Inter Milan will have to be careful, as the threat is clear given the visitors' first half performance. A 1-goal lead is not safe enough for them, especially since there is still enough time left to surprise in this match.
Despite coming from the relegation board, Verona looks more excited to be able to bring home at least 1 point from this match. And if Inter Milan make a lot of mistakes then Verona can just realize their wishes.

Chelsea will host Fulham in the next match, will they be able to get through this week with a win and continue their previous 2 wins? or will they get another disappointing result by being defeated by Fulham?
It will be interesting to see how they will play in this mtch, because although Fulham are still below them, it does not mean that Fulham cannot beat them, especially with the inconsstent performance they often show.
This is not an easy job for the coach, because he is still required to give Chelsea the best. But the problem of problems in the game they often feel, including mistakes that should not happen they still often do.
1455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 05, 2024, 07:11:06 PM
Honestly, although Manchester United will act as the host, but I doubt they will be able to provide something that will satisfy their own supporters, so Tottenham is very likely to record another victory in this match. Currently Tottenham continues to overshadow 5th place and they are waiting for the moment to return to the top 4, so they must maximize this match by winning 3 points.
Manchester United themselves have just suffered a defeat in the previous week and recorded they have pocketed 3 defeats from the last 5 matches they played. I'm not sure about Erik Ten Hag in this match, I'm not underestimating him but with the record he got during this season makes doubts about him grow again.
I understand that lately Manchester United often suffered defeat but the defeat when playing away while when playing at home they can be relied upon that's why I say sometimes Manchester United can surprise to away team, I still remember how Manchester United made a comeback against Aston Villa no one thought when they were 2 goals behind but in the end Manchester won 3-2 and we know that Tottenham is at the same level as Aston Villa so there is a chance for Manchester United to repeat it again. My prediction is not only based on feeling but also based on the betting market because until now Manchester is still favored by the market.

Manchester United's performances have been erratic but they have a strong squad. And if the players in the squad are confident and play well, Manchester United have the ability to win against any team.

Manchester United's performance in home matches is comparatively better. Manchester United have achieved 18 points in 10 home matches and 13 points in 10 away matches. Manchester United will play at home against Tottenham in the next match. With United performing the way they are now, their chances of winning against Tottenham are slim. Even then I wouldn't bet on this match, because Manchester United can surprise everyone and win at any time.
Every time they play, they are unpredictable, sometimes playing a good game, sometimes they are not reliable at all. I personally would strongly avoid betting on when they play, yes at least that's for now when their performance is not predictable at all. Many times when I bet on multibet they always fail me, either because they win, or because they lose.
I miss the Manchester United of old during their golden days, especially when Ferguson was still their coach. I wonder if their golden age will be repeated or not, even if it will be repeated it seems like it will take a very long time to see them become a scary club in the Premier League or in Europe.
1456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 05, 2024, 06:54:12 PM
But despite having no experience at all in the German league. until now, Harry Kane is still the top scorer in the German league.
That shows the quality of Harry Kane can play anywhere and in any competition. It doesn't take long to adapt to the new team's game and the new competition in the German league.
The way each player adapts to a new team and new playing patterns in different leagues is always different from one player to another. Because everyone who has seen how Harry Kane adapts to the Bundesliga is quite accurate clear evidence that players like Harry Kane are quite experienced players in football. So it's not that difficult for him to adapt when he is in a new team like now and I also think that Harry Kane will be able to maintain his top scoring performance until the end of the season in the Bundesliga.
For now Kane can show that he is a quality player who is not only good at playing at one club, but when he has a new club he can quickly adapt and influence in his new club. Actually this can be said to be an advantage or a challenge for him, because being at Bayern Munich on the one hand this is a big club that has quality, but on the other hand when he can't play well then it will be very visible because of course people will see how players who were in his position before and it is inevitable that people will definitely compare it, especially with Lewandowski who we know he is a very good player at Bayern Munich. This has been felt by a Sadio Mane who is considered a failure to be able to occupy the attack line. Kane came and replaced him and he was able to show that Bayern Munich were not wrong to sign him.

The main problem Cristiano is having is the problem of not becoming champion in the arab league, so he need to win the trophy to become more important in that land.

And this year dont seem to be the one in wich he can be champion, at least until now with this Al hilal team in such good shape.

Without even pressuring him, Cristiano Ronaldo is one footballer that loves winning as many titles as possible and that's why his biggest aim this season as Al Nassr player is to win the Saudi Pro League title. He finished last year as the highest goalscorer in world football and is currently topping the chart for the top scorer of the Saudi Pro League with 20 goals and that's why I don't think personal accolades isn't his priority at the moment.

His club Al Nassr are currently trailing league leaders Al Hilal by seven points making it difficult for them to catch with the league leaders but if they can continue with their current performance and Al Hilal drops points, the there's every possiblity of seeing Al Nassr win the Saudi Pro League title this season.
In this case we cannot see only Cristiano Ronaldo, because they play as a team not as individuals, and it must be admitted that at this time Al Hilal is better than Al Nassr. Indeed, in all competitions we know what Ronaldo's ambition is, yes he always has a very high desire to get a title, both individually and as a team. Al Nassr had to slip a few times so they fell behind Al Hilal, and we cannot blame Ronaldo in this case.
Now their gap with Al Hilal is 7 points, with Al Hilal's form being very difficult to beat it is not an easy job for Al Nassr to catch up with Al Hilal. One way for them to get closer is to beat Al Hilal in their meeting later. Al Nassr's first meeting had to recognize Al Hilal's superiority, it must not be repeated. Their own meeting is scheduled for quite a long time, Al Nassr can only hope that their competitors slip in the matches they play.

In today's match Las Palmas vs Barcelona two teams came to the field to play in the Spanish League. Barcelona team won the match by scoring 2 goals in today's match. I placed a bet in support of Barcelona team in today's match. I won the bet in today's match because Barcelona team played very well. But the game started.  Palmas player scored the first goal in the first 12 minutes. On the other hand, Barcelona team player F. Torres scored the first goal in the 55th minute. İ.  Gündoğan scored the 2nd goal at 90+3 minutes.
Barcelona were very lucky in this match, as they were awarded a late penalty which saved them from an unsatisfactory draw. Las Palmas were very troublesome for Barcelona, even they could maintain the score until the end of the first half. But in the second half Barcelona were able to score a goal and make the score even. I thought they were going to draw for the 6th time after so litle time left they were still drawing. But the chance came, and Ilkay Gundogan who stepped up as the executioner did a great job.
They've been going downhill lately, Xavi hernandez needs to find a solution to get them back on track sooner rather than later. Time is running out and if they can't improve their perfrmance then they won't be able to catch the 2 clubs that are above them by 7 points.

It's a big lose if Giroud joining Inter Miami because this team only for ex-Messi's teammates, while Giroud haven't joined a team where Messi was playing. He will get discriminated by many players if he join this team.

He has many choices, he can join Ligue 2 or Saudi Pro League, don't join MLS where the league is small and no one watch it.

It's unlikely Giroud will move to the Arab League, he never seemed to like that. Giroud is a player who has played with many big teams such as Arsenal and Chelsea, so it's no wonder why he is still being targeted by many big clubs outside Europe. Talking about Inter Miami, the news has been that since 202, Inter Miami has persuaded Giroud to join the team but the deal never happened because Giroud still prefers to play in Europe, it is very likely that if Giroud doesn't extend his contract then he will go to Inter Miami

Although he personally dislikes and has no intention of playing in the SPL, if a big offer comes his way I think it could sway him to join one of the clubs in the SPL. Money is now one of the main attractions for players, especially now that he is old and it could be an opportunity for him to get a lot of money before he decides to retire. I haven't heard anything specific about Inter Miami and Giroud, but it looks like they're struggling to sign Giroud.
Although he is still playing well for now, but I don't think it will last long considering his age. And it's perfectly legitimate if he starts thinking about money before he retires as I said before. Because now the SPL is one of the options for players to earn some money.

There is only one game in Italy Serie A. Bologna will play at home against Genoa. Bologna have a great performance under Thiago Motta. After 18 weeks they have only 3 defeats. They have a chance to finish among the top 4 teams in the league this season. On the other hand, Genoa are a few points above the relegation zone. But they have had good results in recent weeks. We can say that they are in good form in terms of performance. I see Bologna as the favorites to win this match, but I will bet on both teams to score.
Yes Bologna will be the favorite in this match, there are many factors that make them like that, one of which is their good appearance and also they will play at home. But they must remain cautious of Genoa, because Genoa themselves have just unexpectedly drawn the current leaders, Inter Milan.
Bologna has the opportunity to be able to shift Fiorentina in the standings if they can win this match, yes at least they will be able to be ranked 4th before Fiorentina plays their match. Fiorentina are scheduled to meet Sassuolo, which we see from the standings they should be able to win the match too.
Bologna must be able to take advantage of Genoa's fragile back line to steal goals and ensure victory.
