I understand and it is natural that a team like Luton will only use a defensive strategy against a strong team like Manchester City, but if they don't immediately look for gaps in the defense then Manchester City will also lose their chance to win. This problem should be resolved well and it won't take long to dismantle Luton's defense and Manchester City should be able to win with a difference of at least 2 goals. But what happened was that they only won narrowly and it was quite vulnerable to a draw if their defense was not ready to anticipate Luton's attack. But overall this is good but not good enough for future competition.

These two players are productive strikers so far in the Bundesliga and it is not surprising that Manchester United is starting to take an interest. I think it will be a difficult decision for Manchester United to choose one of them and maybe I think Lois Openda is still better in terms of age. Moreover, he has been the foundation of Leverkusen so far and that is why he also played a role in bringing Leverkusen to the top of the Bundesliga standings.

But indeed the costs will be very expensive and mutual bargaining negotiations will occur. Leverkusen will certainly ask for a very large fee, especially since they know that those interested are big clubs like Manchester United and perhaps what is a little worrying is that his performance will decline if he joins Manchester United.

I know what you mean and indeed I don't doubt that fact, but isn't there a time when this prediction can be broken even though it is quite difficult, right?
It's true that a draw like that would help Bayern Munich and the distance wouldn't widen that far, but why when they had the opportunity to shorten the distance again, Bayern Munich actually lost badly yesterday against Frankfurt, which clearly had an inconsistent performance. Bayern Munich should have won yesterday and the statistics are still superior to Bayern Munich and again, whose fault is this. I don't want to involve Tuchel too much, but he is the only one who is most responsible for Bayern Munich's situation this season.

Sevilla is still having a difficult journey and this time they had to lose to hosts Mallorca with a narrow score of 1-0. Actually, there was nothing strange in this match because both teams competed very healthily in order to get points and at the same time widen the gap. Mallorca was initially below Sevilla, but thanks to this victory, Sevilla's position was shifted by Mallorca considering that the point difference was not that much. I'm still curious how long Sevilla will be able to break this chain of defeats and in the last 5 matches they have never tasted victory again.

If we talk about match statistics, the two are actually quite evenly matched, it's just that Lyon's attacks were more effective and as a result they were able to score lots of goals against Touluse. If only their defense was as good as Lyon's, it's possible the result would be a draw or at least Touluse wouldn't concede as many goals.

But Lyon's victory is like a breath of fresh air to maintain the confidence of each player so that they are even more enthusiastic about winning in the next match. Anyway, Lyon's next opponent is Monaco and this will clearly be a very difficult match for Lyon and they cannot take their fate for granted and they must try everything so they can still get points later.

Manchester City did win but it was a little worrying, especially against Luton they had to fight hard to be able to turn things around and win with a score of 1-2. Pep Guardiola's squad even had to concede first and against a weak team like Luton they shouldn't have given opposing players the opportunity to break into their goal easily.

On the other hand, Bernardo Silva and Julian Alvarez were key players for Manchester City in this match because they both managed to score the winning goal. After often getting unsatisfactory results, finally Manchester City were able to taste victory again and they had to achieve that against a weak team like Luton and I think that was quite disappointing.

Experience is the key to consistent performance for Cristiano Ronaldo and even though the Saudi league seems easy for him, other European players will still offer similar competition to him. Here it may be true that he will clearly get the individual title, but for the team title in winning the Saudi league there will be a bit of a problem because there are teams that are stronger than them and that is why Al-Hilal is A-Nassr's toughest competitor in winning this title. But indeed, if Cristiano Ronaldo continues to score goals, Al-Nassr's defense must be improved again so that a certain victory does not result in further conceding.

I almost thought it would be a win for Roma at home after they took the lead through a goal scored by Romelu Lukaku. But unfortunately Roma played very hard so they got two red cards and one of the recipients of these cards was their initial goal scorer, Romelu Lukaku.

Strangely, even though Roma initially played with 10 people, Fiorentina still had difficulty breaking into Roma's goal and they could only equalize through a goal scored by Martinez Quarta. I think if Fiorentina can make more use of their number of players they should be able to win this match. But things didn't go so smoothly because both teams fouled each other so that no additional goals were scored.

I agree that a top team like Liverpool must try harder in the European league to strengthen their steps in winning this competition. Sometimes things that cannot be explained often occur in matches that can be predicted and perhaps that is what all teams, including Liverpool, will most avoid. However, apart from Liverpool, I also have another favorite and that is a team from Germany which has surprised various parties, namely Leverkusen and maybe I will be very happy if this will be the ideal final in the European league. But even then, the two of them should not meet in an earlier round because then we will already know who has the biggest chance of winning the title.

To be honest, it's been a long time since I saw Hugo Lloris' performance and even though he is still at Spurs, his position has been replaced by a fairly young goalkeeper, namely Guglielmo Vicario. Currently, it seems like he no longer has coach Ange's trust and is just spending time on the bench. If Newcastle are interested in bringing him in as a replacement for Nick Pope this season, that's not a problem considering he is a good goalkeeper who is very experienced. Newcastle don't need to provide long-term contracts, at least they can take out a season-long loan, which is good enough and won't cost a lot.

It's over and Barcelona's defeat at home is inevitable against Girona. Even though there is only extra time remaining in the match, the score is 2-3 in Girona's favor and it is clear who will win this match. Apart from that, this was Girona's second win away to Barcelona after they last did so in 2019.

Girona knew that if they won they would return to the top of the standings and they were not afraid in the slightest when they found out that their opponent was Barcelona. It's a result that is still hard to believe and maybe Barcelona have lost their game lately which means they often experience deadlocks even in critical minutes and often concede goals.

There is no doubt that the squad built by Xabi Alonso has a very big winning mentality because there are already 3 equally strong teams that they have managed to hold to a draw and the latest is Stuttgart. It certainly wasn't easy with this team's tight pressure and even though they often conceded first, they always ended the match without regrets.

A draw is not a bad result, especially against competitors in the title race and I think Leverkusen are very good and just need to find more points against a team they should be able to beat easily. As long as Leverkusen can maintain its top position, it is clear that Bayern Munich will not be able to catch it this season.

I think it's not easy because until now the fans are not calling for the hashtag #tenhagout and as far as I can see Manchester United management still really believes in his job as coach. Maybe there is some truth in what you said, if the dismissal of Erik Ten Hag in the middle of the season will make the existing situation worse, unless management has prepared a replacement who is much more experienced and also very credible, that's not a problem.

Erik ten Hag is nothing special and perhaps from the start the Red Devils fans had too high expectations of him and for fans of other clubs this coach was probably only in the class of a mid-table team coach. Apart from all that, this season's Champions League doesn't leave the slightest hope for Manchester United to qualify and I think everyone knows that, so changes here are probably not really needed.

After experiencing a very dark week and here Spurs managed to gain valuable momentum for their revival. The result was unusual and they beat Newcastle with a score of 4-1 at home. I don't think there will be many goals considering that the Spurs squad still lacks its core players and on the other hand, even a narrow win is enough to convince them to secure the full 3 points.

Apart from that, I still can't understand why Eddie Howie's squad could be so badly beaten like this considering that the conditions are almost not much different from Spurs and is Newcastle now starting to have doubts about its dominance this season? Even so, at least don't let them get out of the top 10 in the standings. Anyway, congratulations for the big win achieved by Spurs and I hope they can do even better things in the future and don't just stop here.

Do you know that Lyon finally got their second win in the match against Touluse? Lyon even won in a landslide with a score of 3-0 without reply. As a team that is still having difficulty getting more points until now, it feels like this could be a turning point for Lyon in the future. We still don't know what position Lyon will be in this season and it is possible that if they continue to consistently win they will get out of the relegation zone more quickly.

Apart from that, Touluse usually appear quite convincing, but this time they failed to win and this result makes Touluse one of the teams that has not played in the last five matches. Touluse's position was also not very good because several other teams below them, including Lyon, also had the opportunity to throw them into the red zone.

A draw is the thing that must be avoided the most when facing Dortmund later and I think they are still capable of getting a win even though it is an away game for PSG. Currently the PSG squad has no problems and is ready to appear with full strength in other places. Dortmund is also the same and will definitely not let PSG beat them so easily. Dortmund has been confirmed as advancing to the round of 16, but if PSG gets 3 points from them and is superior on goal difference then Dortmund will have to drop to 2nd place and that will be something they don't want because they will meet another strong team who won the group in another place.

PSG's journey was not good in the group stage, but that can't be separated from the fact that they are in the hellish group and I don't think the results will be optimal either. Defending Mbappe will be more difficult because he also wants to experience the champions league title and we'll just have to wait and see what news there will be next season regarding PSG's star player.

Las Palmas have appeared quite impressive so far because they are in a better position than Alaves. Even though this is an away match for Las Palmas, they will not be afraid at all and considering the status of these two teams as promoted teams this season, it is clear that the differences are quite visible in this match. It looks like you will win the bet and I don't think Alaves has a chance to hold Las Palmas to a draw and instead Las Palmas will score again in the second half because a narrow 1 goal lead is still not enough to secure their chance to steal 3 points at home to Alaves.

These are very big odds especially for the team that is favored to win, namely Arsenal and odds @ 2.05 will really make a lot of money if included in a multibet. But Aston Villa cannot be underestimated after beating Manchester City in the previous match and with odds like this it will definitely make people a little hesitant in making decisions. However, Arsenal has no other reason to win if they still want to maintain their top position and continue to widen the gap from other teams and here beating Aston Villa will certainly make their path to winning the title easier.

Now the question is whether Aston Villa can beat another strong candidate team to win the title this season and if they are able to do that, of course they will become a new challenger in the EPL this season.

The difference between Dortmund and Leipzig is only 1 point and whoever wins will get 4th place in this match. However, if we look at the statistics of the last 5 matches of these two teams, it is clear that Leipzig has a slightly better record because they won 3 times and Dortmund only won 1 time. On the other hand, if we look at the H2H, Leipzig is still too strong for Dortmund and maybe this will be the start of Dortmund's revival to break their bad record against Leipzig.

It is quite difficult to predict the outcome of the match and maybe I will bet on the BTTS result and avoid betting on a win for one of the teams. For Bayern Munich, they can get this if they win against Frankfurt today and in fact they are ahead on goal difference, but still we will wait for the results of the Stuttgart vs Stuttgart match first to find out the results.

I actually don't care who wins in a big match like this and the most important thing is that both teams can score lots of goals. The reason is that it is very difficult to determine who won and it could be that when I bet on Juventus but Napoli actually won last night's match, isn't that quite annoying?

But what is clear is that with this result I can better understand that Napoli is not the same strong team as last season and I think some people agree with that. As for Pogba, I don't even remember the last time he defended Juventus after a long injury that started to heal and now has to serve a ban from playing due to a doping problem, so whether Pogba is there or not doesn't change the fact that Juventus is still strong to this day.
