Of course this match Atalanta has a great chance to win the game. Cremonese may only benefit because they are playing as hosts in this match, but for other statistics it is clear that Atalanta is much better than Cremonese who are now at the bottom of the table. With an opponent like that, it would be a shame if Atalanta couldn't win the match.
Playing at home doesn't mean it will be very profitable for the Cremonese team if their strength doesn't improve, because the defense and attack must always be better if you want to win at home. But I don't think that Cremonese was able to do the best in this match so I'm still more confident that Atalanta will win the match this time even though he is a guest team.

I agree with you. Although Cremonese has a home match, they cannot be called favourites. Because the weakest team in Serie A is Cremonese. The team is in the last position in the points table. And this season they have won just one match. Atalanta's performance has been somewhat erratic. However, the Atalanta team is strong enough. Atalanta is still fighting to break into the top four of the points table and qualify for the Champions League. And the 3 points against Cremonese are now very necessary for Atalanta. If Atalanta's attacking players perform with some consistency today, I don't think they will have a problem winning this match. Cremonese's defense is very weak.

Well, the popularity of IPL has decreased. Although IPL started yesterday, I don't see much discussion about IPL in this thread. Are people not interested in IPL now?

However, I was enjoying the match between Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings so far. Punjab mustered 175/5 in 19 overs. I wouldn't call this a bad collection. However, they had the opportunity to collect more than 200. Shikhar Dhawan scored 40 and Bhanuka Rajapaksha scored 50 runs. Umesh Yadav and Varun were able to bowl well for Kolkata. If Punjab's bowlers can bowl controlled from the beginning of the innings, I think they have more chances to win.

Honestly, Juventus's mission return back to the top fourth standing position after 15 points deduction is not easy because have many crucial matches left against Lazio, Napoli and Milan have potential losing points. But winning from crucial matches left actually will give Juventus chance back to top fourth standing.

Even after losing 15 points, it is much more difficult for Juventus to return to fourth place. But it is not impossible. Because I don't see any other team performing well this season in Serie A apart from Napoli. But now the performances of Juventus and Lazio are somewhat regular. If the Juventus team can maintain this consistency until the end of the season, they have the potential to be in the top four of the table. However, it will be difficult for Juventus to continue their consistently good performances in both the Europa League and Serie A.

In the next 1 hour or so, we will get to know whether Sri Lanka needs to participate in the qualifier tournament to get in to the 2023 ODI World Cup. They are on the backfoot as of now, as New Zealand just need another 103 runs to win from 36.3 overs. At one point New Zealand was at 21/3, but then they recovered thanks to the 4th wicket partnership between Will Young and Tom Latham. They have plenty of batting down the order, in the form of Henry Nicholls and Rachin Ravindra. The Lankan bowlers are trying their best to take wickets BTW.
If Sri Lanka fate of making it to ODI world cup depends on this match then they will defiantly play qualify round as just 71 more runs are required by New Zealand in 28 overs with lots of wickets left behind. Sri Lankan batsmen were not able to play New Zealand pace attack - Matt Henry and Henry Shipley as both picked 3 wickets each. Only Pathum Nissanka was able to score 56 runs and there is some contribution from tail other then that its complete batting failure today. Even if Sri Lanka make it to ODI WC then with this performance they have rear chances of making it to next round.

Sri Lanka played two matches in this series and one match was abandoned due to rain. We have seen Sri Lanka batting badly in both matches. Sri Lankan batsmen felt helpless against New Zealand's pace attack. Matt Henry, Shipley, and Daryl Mitchel each took three wickets. All three pace bowlers destroyed Sri Lanka's batting line-up. The target of only 158 runs is not possible to win against New Zealand. Because they are in good form now. New Zealand scored 116 runs. Will Young remains unbeaten on 75 runs. New Zealand needs 42 runs in 24 overs to win.

Bangladesh VS Ireland
I hope they will continue their winning streak in the next match as well. Bangladesh are doing really great and their win is a testament to their hard work and commitment it is unfortunate that Ireland did not perform well I am sure they will learn from this experience and come back stronger in future matches. It has been exciting series and I look forward to seeing more good performances from both teams in the future.
I would not say that Ireland played too badly against Bangladesh. Ireland's performance was similar to their previous matches. However, Bangladesh's performance has improved tremendously. And the Bangladesh team had a great performance against England before Ireland. Earlier we saw Bangladesh batsmen batting at 80-120 strike rate. But in the last two series, most of Bangladesh's batsmen have batted at a strike rate of more than 150. And Rony and Liton's strike rate was around 200. Due to such performance of the batsmen, Bangladesh is consistently performing brilliantly.

I agree with your point of view. We have seen Bangladesh's slow batting in the last T20 World Cup as well. But now the batsmen of Bangladesh are not batting slowly. The strike rate of Liton Das was 202 in the last match. He scored 83 runs off just 41 balls. Rony Talukder's strike rate was 191. Also, Shakib 158 and Towhid Hridoy batted at 184 strike rate. Every batsman in the team is now batting brilliantly. And if this continues, the Bangladesh team will be able to challenge any big team in the future. If the top-order players are able to continue this good performance then the Bangladesh team will be able to perform well in the upcoming ODI World Cup as well.

Marseille team took advantage of psg loss today and they closed the gap between them and paris team to seven points thanks to their win against Reims and in the process they stoped Reims unbeaten streak that lasted 19 games very impressive performance from alexis sanchez who scored two goals and gave marseille team three precious points.
In that I cannot deny it, the Chilean was quite good in the way he scored those goals, and they were very nice goals, if they played like that all the time they Could make a difference, at the beginning of the season Marseille had a lot of faith in him, which I don't like this team is that when they are playing very well and they have to win they don't, they let themselves lose all the work they did before, and although they are 7 points behind PSG I hope they continue with that streak, for me it is one of the best things you can do if they were to match, plus it's very strange that PSG have lost, I think they have Lost focus a bit, the fact that they lost the UCL has affected them.
I think zidane is the perfect coach for a team like psg and if he join i don't think mbappe or any other player will leave the club, zidane is a great coach and everyone will surely wish to be under his supervision, psg administration must do everything to convince zidane joining the club
The problem is that Zidane's willingness to train PSG is not yet there, so that has not happened until now, even though the PSG administration can still persuade Zidane at this time to train PSG. And it would be extraordinary if PSG were able to bring a coach like Zidane into their team the following season. But I still have doubts about this because I remember the will of Zidane himself, who may not yet be there to train PSG.
What happens is that Zidane is looking to be the technical director of France, Zidane is a very demanding coach, before joining a team he puts on the table what he wants and how he wants to achieve it, if they don't give him what that he simply wants, he says uqe no, then to oppose Zidane at PSG the sheikh will have to make many changes in the team and bring in the players that zidane says and throw out the psg players that he says, this kind of thing It means having the PSG team destroyed in its entirety so that he can work very well, for the rest I think he will always say no.
PSG team is only able to perform best in League One. But the PSG team is not able to do anything in other leagues. PSG have enough players in their squad who can do great things. But due to some mistakes of the coach of the team, the team is currently failing to do well in other leagues.
That has been their problem during all these years.They have super star players and it is normal that they will dominate Ligue 1 but after winning it for quite some consecutive years their main objective set by the board of management has been the Champions League.
Unfortunately there they always have failed miserably despite having always great talented players and in this last year super star players that shocked me how they could not score to Bayern Munchen and also how easily their defense was penetrated from Bayern Munchen.I think they have to improve in Champions as they have nothing to improve in Ligue 1.

The management of PSG believes that they can become the best team in the world only by recruiting the best players in the world. So they spent a record amount of money to sign Neymar. Paying very high wages to Messi and Mbappe. The team also has star players like Donnarumma, Ramos, and Hakimi. However, PSG's performance did not improve. PSG management has ignored the fact that apart from having good players in the team, they also need an experienced coach. Due to this, they are not getting the expected performance from the team even after wasting huge amounts of money. PSG management should first hire an experienced coach. After that, the coach chooses to add the necessary players to the squad.

It is much more difficult for Real Madrid to win La Liga and Copa del Rey titles now. First, they have several key players injured. As a result, their performance is likely to degrade somewhat. Barcelona is Madrid's main rival for the second La Liga and Copa Del Rey titles. It is difficult for Madrid to win against Barcelona. Madrid has lost four of their last five matches against Barcelona. I would say Real Madrid should focus more on Champions League matches only. If they can continue in the Champions League, Madrid has the possibility to become champions.
Their main focus may already be on the Champions League. but Real Madrid will definitely continue to fight for their best, be it in Laliga or in the Copa del rey. even now I think Real Madrid will try to win in the Copa del rey. because if the Laliga title is already difficult for them to win then they certainly don't want to waste their opportunity in the Copa del rey. even though they lost the first leg. but a thin score will not be too difficult to turn it around in the second leg. But Real Madrid does have several injured players so their performance may indeed be a little disturbed.

Real Madrid will definitely try to win the Copa del Rey. But it will not be easy for Madrid. Because Real Madrid lost the home match against Barcelona in the first leg of the Copa del Rey. However, the victory was very narrow. Barcelona won by 1-0. However, winning against Barcelona at the Bernabeu in the second leg is challenging. I think the second leg match will be a draw and Barcelona will qualify for the Copa del Rey final. Madrid should now only focus on the Champions League.

This is just absolutely uninteresting for a lot of people. Because both of the teams are absolutely made out of foreign players. Basically no native players in the team for both of them. It would have been interesting if this was a close match. But the match was not even that close. I know that ICC is expecting a lot from the USA. But the performance of the USA team basically reassures that they are not going to be having too much success. I know that Canada is a better team compared to the USA. But this was a good chance for the USA to prove themselves.
Teams such as the United States of America and United Arab Emirates are given preferential treatment by the ICC. The global body tries hard to get them included in the ICC tournaments. For the 2024 T20 World Cup, the ICC has provided USA with direct qualification. But all this bias in their favor hasn't done them any good. Cricket remains almost unknown among the natives, and the performance of these two teams hasn't improved despite additional funds from the ICC and a massive influx of foreign players.

I cannot agree that USA and UAE's performance is not improving. I didn't know the USA team a few years ago. But this group is now known worldwide. Maybe their performance is not stable yet, but I think this team will be stable gradually. The UAE team also has several talented players. However, their performances are not regular as the players are not experienced enough. These two teams are getting a lot of benefits from the ICC, and it is expected that the performances of these two teams will be more stable in the next few years.

^^ Let's hope they continue this run in ODI WC too.

Sometimes the team peaks a bit early in terms of performance and goes back into its shell when the main tournament starts. It happens with almost every team, every now n then (the Indian team is a fine example). Australia and England are particularly quite good at this, they always peak at the right moment.

India's performance in the last T20 World Cup was abysmal. But after the World Cup, they were able to improve their performance. In several matches, we saw excellent performances from the Indian players. But the Indian team did not play well against Australia in the last ODI series. The performance of the Indian batsmen in particular was erratic. India will target the upcoming ODI World Cup as they have not fared well in the T20 World Cup. England's performance has also deteriorated. We have seen England's poor performance against Bangladesh.

PSG needs an experienced coach like Zidane. In the last few seasons we have seen that despite PSG having an excellent squad, their performances have not been good. Because coaches Pochettino and Galtier are not experienced. PSG needs a coach who has experience on the Champions League platform. Poch and Galtier were not experienced enough in the Champions League. This is why we have seen poor performances from PSG despite having a strong squad. Zidane does not want to leave Spain. And this is why Zidane has rejected PSG's offer every time. PSG should try their best to make Zidane their coach. And should definitely offer a higher wages. If wages are high, Zidane may be interested in becoming the coach.
PSG needs a better coach and we understand the reason, they had many famous and great players during this season but still, they couldn't perform well enough, in both the French league and the champions league maybe the reason for this bad performance was the coach and that's why de are trying to hire another person. Since Zidan is a french coach with the experience he can be a good option for PSG.

If PSG cannot hire an experienced coach next season, their performance will not improve. Their dreams of winning the Champions League title will not be fulfilled. They only have to be happy with the Ligue 1 title. A Champions League title is not possible with inexperienced coaches and a bad match strategy. PSG has a strong squad. At the same time, PSG management is also ready to spend more money to strengthen the squad. Now if they got a coach like Guardiola or Zidane, maybe PSG's performance in the Champions League would have been more stable.

Real Madrid has displayed it best in the Spanish League, and I also join others that have predicted strongly that they are going to win the tournament in this season. So far as the games goes from my sight, Real Madrid will win the match and not Barcelona, As it is said, Barca was strong when Messi and Ronaldo were there in the team. And since there are not there, Real Madrid has the best chances to win the Spanish cup.
Can you mention in more detail which tournament Real Madrid will win? Until now, Real Madrid has participated in several tournaments, such as La Liga and the Copa del Rey.The main opponent of Real Madrid is Barcelona, which is not easy to beat. Currently in La Liga, the points standings owned by Real Madrid are quite far from the first position, which is controlled by Barcelona.To win this position, Real Madrid needs to win several times in every match, and that is not easy to do because many Real Madrid players are currently injured.

It is much more difficult for Real Madrid to win La Liga and Copa del Rey titles now. First, they have several key players injured. As a result, their performance is likely to degrade somewhat. Barcelona is Madrid's main rival for the second La Liga and Copa Del Rey titles. It is difficult for Madrid to win against Barcelona. Madrid has lost four of their last five matches against Barcelona. I would say Real Madrid should focus more on Champions League matches only. If they can continue in the Champions League, Madrid has the possibility to become champions.

"Singaporean women ‘outperforming’ men in crypto trades, survey reveals"
https://cointelegraph.com/news/singaporean-women-outperforming-men-in-crypto-trades-survey-reveals

The dawn of mankind is officially here. A recent poll from Singapore revealed that women managed to outperform men in the manliest games of all - crypto trading:
"As per the survey data, 76% of women reported either making money or breaking even on their crypto investments, compared to just 72% of men"

Since it looks like the answers were self-reported, there's a chance that women may not be telling the truth, to make themselves look better. But maybe there's something in the female approach to trading that would explain it (i.e. higher risk aversion?).



I'm not sure why women involving into investments/tradings of all sorts are a big deal for some of us? I mean, except from the physicality  - women are all equal with men. They have brains too, and brains doesn't work different per gender. Isn't this something that is insulting for the women? Not sure though coz we have different perspective.
I don't see any difference to a woman who became president, or something being the head of a certain society.
Nevertheless, a woman can make their own due diligence better than a man and her fellow woman.

These surveys make me feel that we are still prejudiced, and belittled women to some extent. I agree with you that, women or men, we are all human, all the same, men can do anything women can do, and vice versa, there is no need to be too surprised or feel weird when women invest in crypto or become president. Our world is no longer a feudal world, we are in an equal world where everyone is treated equally. I even learned from a female trader in my area who was much better than me.

@reagansimms I doubt that Tuchel can beat City right away, because he’s barely got time to settle in and understand the squad properly hence I feel that City will will defeat them badly by scoring many goals. Also in the long run Tuchel can work wonders for them, but in the short term I expect him to suffer many defeats as the timing of his appointment is horribly wrong.
At least he has done that with Chelsea. Maybe it can happen to Tuchel at Bayern Munich. There's always a chance to do that, Tuchel once in the EPL he had good experience. So I think he knows enough how to play Man City. Before Chelsea, he had also been at Dortmund and PSG. So I have no doubt about his experience. It may take adaptation but it doesn't take long. There are still a few games for the Bundesliga, while for the UCL they have enough time to break so I think it doesn't matter.
Correct. Thomas tuchel is an experienced coach and actually a very reliable coach. even when he was at Chelsea he donated many trophies to Chelsea. one of them is the champions league trophy. so I think it doesn't take much time for Tuchel to adapt to the Bayern Munich team. and I'm pretty sure he also has a lot to know about the opponent Bayern will face in the UCL quarter-finals, namely Man City. and it's true that there is still time for Thomas Tuchel to adjust the strategy he made to apply to Bayern.
I think it is an advantage for Manchester city to face Bayer Munich because they suddenly replaced the coach.
Bayern Munich players and coaches certainly have to adjust their strategy in terms of the game.
But in the future I agree with you that Tuchel will be able to revive Bayern Munich's game, so as to be able to win more trophies, it does not rule out that Bayer Munchen will get a league title next season, because Tuchel is one of the coaches who has had many achievements.

I agree with you. Facing Manchester City at this moment will not be easy for Bayern Munich. Because they changed coaches, I wouldn't say coach Tuchel is inexperienced. He is quite an experienced coach. However, it takes time to adapt to a new team and it is very difficult to take charge of a big club like Bayern Munich. However, before facing Manchester City, Bayern Munich will play three matches against Dortmund, and Freiburg. I am looking forward to seeing how Bayern Munich performs in these three matches. If Munich can perform consistently well in these three matches, Bayern Munich can be expected to perform well against Manchester City as well.

South Africa and West Indies compete head to head in every match. in the first match South Africa played 11 overs and score 131/8 and West Indies played 10.3 overs and scored 132/7 in the second match South Africa played 18.5 overs and score 259/4 and West Indies played 20 overs and scored 258/5 again in the 3rd match South Africa played 20 overs and score 213/6 and West Indies played 20 overs and scored 220/8. Both teams are equally strong and always score almost equally with only 2/1 runs lost between them. South Africa lost the 3rd match by only 7 runs.

In the last match, I expected South Africa to win. But they lost by 7 runs. The pitch was batting-friendly in the last two matches. And we have seen uncontrollable bowling by the bowlers of both teams. I have not seen any South African bowler bowl better in the last match. On the other hand, the main reason for the victory of the West Indies in this match is the somewhat controlled bowling of Alzarri Joseph and Cottrell. Cottrell did not pick up any wickets. But he conceded 24 runs in 3 overs. On the other hand, Joseph gave 40 runs in 4 overs, but he managed to pick up 5 wickets.

Let's talk about the possibility of zidane to join PSG.
AFAIk, zidane is always being linked to the its former team (juventus and real madrid), PSG had almost zero chance to be coached by zidane. Zidane has its own criteria for the club that he wants to coached it.
Quote
Zizou has been heavily linked with the head coach position at Paris Saint-Germain, with Christophe Galtier expected to lose his job after a disappointing season so far. Sport report that PSG officials want Zidane to take over.
However, they also report that Zidane is likely to hold out on committing to PSG until he knows his standing with Real Madrid. A third spell at Los Blancos is believed to be the Frenchman’s priority, and with Carlo Ancelotti’s future far from certain after an underwhelming domestic campaign, the position could be available this summer.
https://www.football-espana.net/2023/03/28/zinedine-zidane-holding-out-for-real-madrid-return-despite-paris-saint-germain-interest
Zidane is still giving so many questions about what will be his new club. It seems like that if he was also interested to join with real madrid. I think that if it's quite better for PSG to get another option other than him. So many clubs rejected by him.
Psg must also focus in the match against lyon. PSG shall not lose other points again.
Zidane is a family man and loves to live in Spain. If no changes, some of his sons are playing in Spanish clubs, and he is a man that is closely attached to his family. PSG would have a difficult time persuading Zidane to accept that managerial position. It is possible that Real Madrid and Juventus, his former clubs, have a better chance of acquiring him. In the event that Didier Deschamps was not retained as manager of the French national team, it would have been possible for Zidane to accept the offer from PSG. It would have made a difference for Zidane, and it makes sense that he would be thrilled to coach Les Bleus.

PSG needs an experienced coach like Zidane. In the last few seasons we have seen that despite PSG having an excellent squad, their performances have not been good. Because coaches Pochettino and Galtier are not experienced. PSG needs a coach who has experience on the Champions League platform. Poch and Galtier were not experienced enough in the Champions League. This is why we have seen poor performances from PSG despite having a strong squad. Zidane does not want to leave Spain.

If wages are high, Zidane may be interested in becoming the coach.

Villarreal might be will taking advantages because playing as a host but Sociedad away matches this season looks impressive that they even so far already gets 8 wins from it i think this proven Sociedad can performing well at their opponents home ground and my predictions Sociedad will be the winner of this match

Both Villarreal and Real Sociedad are in very good form right now. So it becomes difficult to make predictions about this match. Villarreal will be slightly more confident as the home team. Moreover, their performance in recent matches is quite stable. On the other hand, Sociedad won 1-0 against Villarreal in the last home match. Even in the away match, they will definitely play to win. At the same time, Real Sociedad's performance in away matches is quite good. But my guess is that the match will be a 1-1 draw. Because both teams are in good form now.

Fabrizio Romano in his page said that Chelsea seems to be in search of another striker after the deal of Christopher Nkunku is concluded and the possible target of Chelsea is Victor Osimhen. It was when I heard Victor that I began to question if Chelsea actually knows what they want? I mean they have had too many signings without selling of players and with such signings results are not coming yet. Do they still need to be signing the more?
Will Victor even agree to join a club that is not playing the champions league? This is because I haven't seen the possibility of Chelsea being in the Champions League.
I'm no Chelsea supporter but I can say I've been very fair when it comes to stuff's about football transfers lately, as for Chelsea linking with Victor Oshime, that's the perfect way he should go, for both his personal career and for his country and also as a black player. Chelsea might have lots of players but what they really need is a new Coach and also Victor Oshime to lead the attackers.

I can imagine how much of a deadly and dangerous side they'll be when you face them next season, that's only if two players and and new manager comes in. The future looks bright, why are you so short sighted? Victor Oshime fits into Chelsea perfectly great. The Champions League would be a must for Chelsea next season, that I can conclude with.

But the question is, is Victor Osimhen actually going to want to join Chelsea? I don't think he will. After all, Chelsea is not performing well at all right now. To get a player like Victor Osimhen, a club has to show some good results I think. But that is not what Chelsea is being able to do right now.

If somehow Chelsea can actually get these players in, they are going to be very serious team the next season. But as I said, I don't think the players that they want are going to be very enthusiastic to join Chelsea.

Adesanya still proves to be better than Alex during their fight, he dominated in many rounds which bookmakers may have been right about giving him the odd advantage. He almost won in the last fight, he was just unlucky though because Alex can strike hard as well. Maybe in the next match, Izzy will finally learn to end the fight while Periera hasn't gauged yet.

Jones must have been high for days. These cryptic messages mean he will once again be inactive in UFC.  Grin

Israel Adesanya is going to be out for revenge in this match. And we have seen him perform really well when he is out for revenge previously. So I think revenge is something that makes anyone a lot more dangerous. That is probably the same thing going to happen here. In the upcoming fight between him and Alex Pereira, I say Israel Adesanya is going to be the winner.

Don't really want to make any statement about Jones. He could have been so much better if he just was a little more hard-working and serious about his career.

Honestly, I don't trust any politician, simply because we all have greed, power and money that will make people change quickly. When you are a poor person, you will have a different mindset, but when you are rich, you will have a different mindset.

It is very difficult to know exactly what factors make the increase in the price of bitcoin. The rise and fall of bitcoin prices is influenced by many factors. Therefore, there is no one specific reason for the increase in the bitcoin price.
Bitcoin started an upward trend when the US Silicon Valley Bank was rumored that going to bankrupt. After spreading the news of Silicon Valley Bank bankruptcy Bitcoin suddenly showed a glimpse of a major bullish trend when negative comments came about other banks as well. Bitcoin stopped at $19000 to $28000. But at present this situation prevails. Moreover, since the results of the Fed have been positive, the crypto market is also in a good position till today.
Yes, this is the most likely reason for the recent bullish bitcoin's tendency, added to some whales who saw this as an opportunity to grow their holdings in a decisive moment for bitcoin market. Today MicroStrategy company, which is a whale, announced they are going to buy more 6.455 BTC for 150$ million dollars. That is just an example of how whales behave in such bullish markets and besides MicroStrategy there must be more of them.

On the other hand it means bitcoin gets more centralized on the hands of few investors, what isn't good for the long term sustainability of the currency's price.
Everything has two sides to it, bitcoin being held by large institutions will make bitcoin more centralized and more susceptible to price manipulation. But on the contrary, it proves that bitcoin is getting more attention, and if we want bitcoin to become more and more popular, we need big countries and corporations to accept bitcoin. To be honest, it is tough for bitcoin to become more popular and solid if it is only based on small investors like us, we need the participation of the big players. We need trade-offs to achieve the goal, and as bitcoin becomes more popular, more people hold bitcoins, and bitcoin becomes more decentralized.
