After the last 2 matches must lose, Manchester City will host Brighton in the upcoming match. Brighton also has the status of not an easy opponent to beat, they play well even though the last 2 matches they also struggled and had to lose and draw. Manchester City must not underestimate them in this match, if they do then Brighton has the potential to give them 3 defeats in a row. The absence of KDB affects their attack line, yes now they are a little difficult in building attacks and providing passes that spoil their attackers.
Pep Guardiola would know better than to underestimate Brighton, Roberto De Zerbi's men play one of the best kind of football in the EPL and on their day they can beat any opposition in the league. City are the team under pressure in this game, two straight losses and the players will have it at the back of their mind going into this game, three straight losses would feel like a disaster.

Having said that, City definitely miss KDB, but they have missed Rodri more in the last three games for which he was suspended; Rodri is back and is available for the game against Brighton, he should give this City team a lift and we'd see if they can get their first win in their last 3 EPL games.
Yes Rodri also had to miss a few games, but he'll be back for this very important match.
True, now the pressure is on Manchester City, because they are required to return to victory after 2 previous matches must experience defeat. If they lose again in this match, then it will be a severe blow to Pep, especially they will play this match at home.
The supporters will be ready to give them full support, so that will be an injection of enthusiasm.
Brighton on the other hand will take advantage of Manchester City's unfavorable conditions, I think a draw is enough for Brighton.

Hazard was brilliant at Chelsea for a couple of seasons, he really was. It’s also true that he didn’t score more than 16 goals in a Premier League season once. He was also a massive flop at Real Madrid. He’s been all but retired for about 4 years if we are totally honest.

It’s a shame but during what should have been his peak years, he was injured & overweight most of the time. I’d argue that his transfer fee and output at Real makes him one of the worst signings in history. He also went more than a year without scoring a goal in the Premier League.

To summarise, great player when he wanted to be but nowhere near deserving of some of the accolades he gets.
With what Hazard experienced during his Real Madrid uniform, it proves that there is no guarantee when a club brings in a good player from another club that he will make the same contribution to them, and Hazard is one of them. I agree he is one of the worst transfers Real Madrid have ever made.
But I will not blame him completely, because it could be that Real Madrid's style of play is not suitable for Hazard, especially since he has suffered several injuries. And we know injury is one of the factors which causes a player not to return to his best performance.

The match will be very interesting, both teams that will meet will target victory to maintain their position. The chances given are almost equal and a draw is very likely in this match. But I am worried about AC Milan, I mean when they face strong and balanced teams they usually struggle and they seem confused about what to do. We saw that in their match against Inter Milan.
I just hope that won't happen to them in this match, because it will be very detrimental to them. If they can't win, then even 1 point is very valuable in a big match like this.
Seria A is difficult and filled with high competition from these elite and average clubs, witnessed it in several games. The big game coming up after international break this weekend,  we should prepare ourselves for this game. Stadio Giuseppe Meazza is home-ground for Rossoneri to conquered their opponents. Perhaps Milan manager, Stefano Pioli have arranged good mappings towards Massimiliano Allegri because it's extremely a tough game to decides the winner. AC Milan are ranked first on the table and have also made winning the scudetto their priority this season, this time they won't afford to back out.
 
It happens because some clubs have even strength so that it can create intense competition between them. That's what we want from a league, which does not only show 1 club that can dominate the league, but several clubs can provide an interesting spectacle. Napoli were superior last season, but this season they don't look like last season. Juventus slipped up a few times last season, but now they're starting to become more consistent. With rivalries like these, it's great entertainment for us and we'll definitely look forward to them every week.

Psg are in their bad times lately and other teams are capitalizing on their poor form and are snatching the 3 points away from them, well I still think there's hope for them this season to defend their title and sooner or later they'll bounce back and begin to be consistent in winning games moreover they're still very strong league contenders even though they're not currently at the top of standings as expected.

 Well you're right because smaller clubs are now begin to perform better and re in a better position on the standings than PSG it would very interesting to see another team go far in the league and probably win I'm place of PSG, Monaco seem like a team that could do that this season but I doubt if they'll survive till the end of this season.
Competition in the league always leads to the development of teams, Monaco could be a good competitor for PSG, but they have a different policy, they often sell talented players to other teams and it takes them some time to recover from this. PSG can win Ligue 1 because their results are the most consistent of all the teams in the championship. At the end of the last championship they competed with Lens, and now Lens is at the bottom of the standings. It is also difficult to say how stable Monaco and Nice can be, can they be competitors for PSG throughout the season?
I agree with you, here inconsistency is still the main enemy for some clubs, so they struggle to compete strictly until the season is really over. Paris Saint Germain can probably be said to be one of the clubs that has a good level of consistency compared to other clubs. What they have achieved is inseparable from their financial capabilities and the players they have, yes maybe we all agree that Paris Saint Germain is a club that has the strongest squad compared to other clubs in Ligue 1.
We can see Lens, yes you said something right, last season they were strong, but this season the opposite is what they showed.

In my opinion, this season will be very difficult for Bayern Munich to be able to defend the Bundesliga title, there are several teams such as Leverkusen, Stuttgart and also RB Leipzig who have experienced an increase in team quality so that it is possible for these teams to be able to tackle Bayern Munich and also Bayern Muncih this season. not very consistent and in my opinion there has even been a decline in quality since being coached by Tauchel.
However, things like this make the Bundesliga more competitive and more exciting to follow.
I'm surprised by the stunning performance portrayed by these  Bundesliga clubs this season, high time to points out tough contest towards Bayern Munich because I'm sick and tired of Bavarians lifting the title every season, referring them to Bundesliga giant is absolutely discouraging for other opponents. Bundesliga title is only for the best leading teams to win, nothing other than that. Bayern Munich chances of winning Bundesliga title this season is slimed not after a tough brilliant competition pulled by Bayer Leverkusen, Stuttgart, Borrusia Dortmund and RB Leipzig. It will be extremely difficult for the Bavarians to overcome all these challenging matches, because the new manager, Thomas Tuchel have made Bayern Munich to look vulnerable.
I'm happy to see that the competition is more competitive than usual, I don't care whether Bayern Munich will be able to defend their championship this season or not, what is clear is that the increasingly competitive competition has made an impression. Actually what we expect from this Bundesliga is a competition that is not only dominated by 1 or 2 clubs, but other clubs must also participate in intense competition. And it seems that we will see it this season.
But there is one concern for me, yes it lies in the consistency of clubs that are now showing improvement, I hope they can maintain that.

It would be a good step if Real Madrid were able to bring Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu and it is certain that the strength of their front line will be even more frightening for opponents. Mbappe has the ability to dribble and move the ball to outwit the opponent's defense. His presence can also have a positive effect on the team because there will be several players who are able to apply pressure besides scoring goals. So there will be a lot of empty space that can be utilized by Jude Belligham, Vinicius and other forward players, this strength will make Ancelotti's squad even more dangerous.
I really fully support your statement. It is true that Mbappe arrival will shake up La Liga and even competing with Barcelona will look very easy and certainly to win the glory of the title like when there were still Ronaldo and Benzema as I said before. of course Ancelotti is also more enthusiastic about achieving his goal of getting titles in all competitions in La Liga and in the UCL, but this is just our speculation and my concerns arose after there were rumors that Real madrid also had an alternative if they failed to bring in Mbappe or chose to get reliable player from the EPL Haaland and it will be more difficult because Haaland is currently still comfortable with his current team.

however, our hopes remain same and we want to see surprise that occurs when Mbappe confirm he will go to Real Madrid.
If they manage to sign Mbappe at the end of the season, then the coaching chair is no longer held by Ancelotti, because he will certainly join Brazil.
Yes, Mbappe's arrival would be a big deal for Real Madrid in particular and La Liga at large, this player would be on the list of players who would get a lot of talk in La Liga. But now he must first complete his responsibilities at Paris Saint Germain. And make no mistake not only Real Madrid will try to get his signature, but there will be competition there too.

Talking about this, I remembered the previous year before the Qatar World Cup. Yes many of us speculated that the possibility of the Qatar World Cup would be the last World Cup for Messi and not just Messi but other players as well, like Ronaldo for example. But now we are starting to speculate about the possibility of Messi plying in the World Cup or not. Yes it is interesting considering his age, but indeed his influence on his country is huge. Even though he is only in the lineup and not the main player, he can give his experience to other players and also provide motivation. I also haven't heard any rumors of him retiring anytime soon.

He has seen what happened to Ronaldo during Qatar 2022. It doesn't matter whether you are a legend. When you get old, then you are out of favor with the coach. Messi will be 39 years old by the time of North America 2026 and there is a good chance that he will retire from active football before that. He has achieved whatever he wanted to achieve in international and club football. So rather than risking his reputation by playing in 2026, he may just stay out of that tournament. At the most, he may enroll for some sort of coaching responsibility for the national team.
Yes, it could very well happen when we see his name on the coaching staff list for his country. Age does not lie, even though he is still able to play, his contrbution to the game will not be the same as when he was younger and that cannot be denied. And even at his age, it's amazing that he can still contribute to the club he's playing for.
The next World Cup is the stage for the young players of today, and I'm sure there will be many new players who will get a lot of attention and then become a target for the big clubs.

Abha did put up quite a surprising resistance in that match. Even though Abha's ranking in the standings is really very different from Al-Nassr, in reality they are able to make Al-Nassr difficult.
In fact, the number of shots on target that Abha and Al-Nassr had in that match was also the same, namely 6 shots on target.

But a draw seems fair enough for the match. But I imagine that if Al-Nassr wins that match and gets 3 points then of course now Al-Nassr will be in a better ranking, namely at 2nd place. But being at 3rd place is also quite good. It's just that the points Al-Nassr currently has are the same as Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli. Which makes everything possible in the next match. changes in the standings will really become more fierce.
Al Nassr drawed points with Abha was surprise and probably not what we expected it to be. The game have sealed Al Nassr to 3rd ranking on SPL table, with desperation to reach the top rankings because they're among the competitive teams that have good chances of winning. The Knights of Najd dominated first and second halves of the game but failed to net more goals in the first half, after missing out of golden goal scoring opportunities. No one expected an average side like Abha stopped Al Nassr from winning, cutting of their unbeaten streaks with 2-2 on scoresheet.


Yes, of course, most people will feel the same way about the outcome of this match. And I think a lot of people ended up losing their bets because they bet on AL Nassr winning. But what Abha did in this match was really remarkable and they were successful in holding Al Nassr to a draw.
But this is what is interesting, because we don't know what results a club will get even though the match brings together two clubs that have quite different strengths. That indicates that the competitive level in the Arab League is quite good because a club cannot guarantee an easy victory.

Will Lionel Messi play in the 2026 FIFA World Cup? This is a big question. The fans from the United States will love to see him in action on their grounds but we will wait and see. Although he has said a few times in the interviews that he may not be able to play in the upcoming World Cup.


Messi will probably still be selected for FIFA 2026 but may not be included in the main squad. I think Messi has a very big influence on the Argentine national team. Imagining young players playing with Messi in the national team will be a huge motivation for their mentality. So I think FIFA 2026 will probably be Messi's last World Cup participation before retirement.

The most important match in the next match week is Hoffenheim vs Frankfurt. Frankfurt has been very stingy in scoring and eating goals this season. Their matches are not very enjoyable to watch and we can already see that in the results. Hoffenheim will probably be the favorite, but I think the potential for a draw is high.
Leverkusen, on the other hand, will travel to Wolfsburg. I expect Leverkusen to win barring a setback. They are one of the teams with the best chances of winning the championship this season.
Obviously, he is a player who is always in the Barcelona squad who plays on the field during his matches, his absence will make Xavi quickly prepare a suitable replacement. Because usually the defense will be fragile when this one player is left behind, because chemistry must be recreated if new players enter.
Barcelona's injury storm will indeed affect the team as a whole, which is why they must have a squad that is evenly distributed between the main players and the coating players, so that when they have to experience something like this, there will be no significant changes they feel.

There is nothing wrong with that, especially since Totenham also has the potential to become champions. But the problem is that these few seasons they can't improve their ability to make that happen, and maybe they can do it this season. But for me it's still too early to talk about that, because it's early. Although they are now at the top of the table, they are also not far adrift of other clbs and have the same points as Arsenal.
They are actually a club that can compete in the top flight and I wonder if they will be able to become chmpions after their efforts in several seasons only being a top-tier club.
 
I now least of all believe that Tottenham will be able to become champions, if only because City, Arsenal and Liverpool now look very cool and they have significantly greater squad depth, which in the long term will have a significant advantage for these teams.

Guardiola does not make a tragedy of yesterday's defeat to Arsenal, 2 points is not such a big gap, and he says that sometimes it is even good when the team is not in first place, this is not the first time for City in such a situation, everything is just beginning.
If we sort out of all the clubs that have the opportunity to become champions, then Tottenham have a chance, it's just that maybe if it is percented, Tottenham will not be a bigger percentage than Manchester City and Arsenal. But this is just a speculation that we see from their development this season, it could be that in reality they can answer all the doubts pinned on them.
I am also sure you are not the only one who does not believe in Tottenham, especially if it is a champion they will get. Because we all know that to become champions here will not be easy and they have to compete with not just one or two clubs, but many clubs they have to beat.
2893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: October 09, 2023, 03:22:50 PM
We've passed Week 9 in the Arab League and there have been changes in the standings, in the top 4 in particular. Ittihad got their second defeat in week 9 and that result cost them their place as at the same time Al Nassr got 1 point as they also got a draw. But that was enough to make Al Nassr shift the position occupied by Ittihad before, yes even though it was only different in goal productivity.
Apart from all that, I was a little surprised by what Al Nassr achieved this week because they could only draw against a club that was actually not strong and fairly weak.
Football, you play with our feelings so much! Ittihad is still hurting from their second loss, while Al Nassr is sauntering into their spot, even though they only tied a game against a team that looked like an easy win. I get it. We were all expecting to win against a "weaker" team like Abha, but it ended in a tie. But isn't that what makes the sport so great? When what everyone thinks is the underdog scores a goal despite the odds being against them. It really warms my heart. Yes, the tables turned in a way that no one saw coming, but isn't that what keeps us all hooked to our screens every week?
Yeah I don't mind that, obviously that's what makes this sport interesting is when the unexpected happens. A club that is different in terms of strength does not necessarily win the match, because before the long whistle sounds the end of the match all possibilities can still occur, we can see from Al Nassr's match this week which was only able to win 1 point. I'm sure most people predict Al Nassr will win and I'm also sure many people are betting on Al Nassr's victory. But that's football, things didn't go as expected. I'm also sure many people were disappointed and lost their money betting on them.
2894  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: October 09, 2023, 03:07:27 PM

With such a stark difference in strength, a draw is a very good result for Granada. We can see that from the sttistics recorded in this match. Barcelona had almost all the possession, and with stats like that a club deserves a win. But the quick goal that Granada can create in this match is the key for the host to secure at least 1 point from this match.
It's a bit unfortunate when they don't keep the score until the end, but with Brcelona's continuous attack is also very good when they only concede 2 goals.
They can only focus on defense.
Granda parked the boss and frustrated Barcelona with a strong defense line after scoring two goals in the 1st half but thank to a goal from their 2 youngsters Yamal and João Félix that helped them to get the equalizer in the match, Barcelona were favourites to win the game but where very unfortunate to concede 2 goals at the 1st half of the game, however thank goodness they were able to reply the 2 goals before the final whistle.

 Well the gap between Barcelona and the league leaders is not very much, but they have to be careful not to drop more points cause Realmadrid are in a very good form and the recovery of Vini Jnr with the combination of Jude Bellingham has made them even more stronger,therefore Barcelona needs to be performing well to keep up with them.
 
They realized that if they played openly they would be a scoring ground for Barcelona, and I think their strategy was sound and reasonable enough to get a point in this match. The fact is that even though they parked their defense, Granada could also create goals and I think that was planned. They were looking for a quick goal and after that they focused on defense to maintain the score they had created early on.
This is a common strategy when the strengths of the two clubs are quite different. The weaker club will look for a quick goal and after that they will defend completely. Most small clubs do this when they meet strong clubs.

What do you think about the hypothesis that Tottenham will win the Premier League this season? This is probably a shock to their fans. It's like a slap in the face for big clubs like defending champion Man City. It is difficult to say whether this will happen or not because their team does not have outstanding star players. But when the incident occurred, the one who regretted it was probably Kane. He has long desired the title with Tottenham. Let's wait and see what surprises Tottenham brings this season. It's too early to say which team will win the championship this season, but this is just a hypothesis.
There is nothing wrong with that, especially since Totenham also has the potential to become champions.

Yes, Granada is one of the weakest clubs in La Liga, but even teams like Real Madrid or Barcelona have difficulties. Barcelona drew this match and it's probably not a big deal for them. The main thing is that they did not lose three points and earned at least one point. Barcelona have not lost a single game this season and this is a good result.

I was amazed by Granada's performance for scoring at early minute of the game and maintain the lead till late minutes. It's just unfortunate they were not able to maintain and hold Barcelona back till final whistle. It's was a good result for Granada considering the fact that they have average players and are not in any way close to Barcelona but I will not agree that it was a good result for Barcelona. It's understandable that football is full of surprises and seeing small clubs trashing big teams now has become normal but nevertheless, it shows how weak and relax Barcelona has become in the recent game week. Draw spoils record more than losing in the table and before you realize what is happening, you're already in the mid table when you draw a lot of matches.
With such a stark difference in strength, a draw is a very good result for Granada. We can see that from the sttistics recorded in this match. Barcelona had almost all the possession, and with stats like that a club deserves a win.

PSG is highly inconsistent during their games,sometimes they destroy good teams like they did to Lyon some time ago and like they did to Rennes this weekend.Monaco is a strong contender this year but they are not consistent either so it will be interesting to see how it folds out between these two teams as honestly I doubt Nice would be any real danger or any real contender to the title despite being high in the standings just check how many goals they have scored and you will agree with me.Marseille also looks distant from the title fight so far but Marseille is a team that when it gets steam it can be a really consistent winning team so let's wait and see.
What they have achieved is inseparable from their internal problems, which have made them what they are today. Inconsistency has been a problem for them for a long time, even last season they also felt the same way, and it's just not what we see now. Now will they continue to be in this state? Who is responsible? maybe here is not a big problem, because they can still compete for the title, but the problem is when they are in the Champions League.
There their players can't perform like they did in Ligue 1, because it's very different there.


Every league in Europe except Ligue 1 is very competitive. In the Bundesliga teams like Bayern Munich, Leverkusen and  Dortmund are fighting for the title. Both Manchester City and Arsenal are chasing the title in the  Premier League.

In La Liga, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid will fight for the title.  Only in Ligue 1 do we see every team's performance erratic. Even PSG's performance has also been erratic, but what makes PSG ahead of other teams is that they have a strong squad as well as a  very experienced coach. This is why they have the highest chance of winning the title in Ligue 1. And maybe in the next few weeks we will see them at the top of the Ligue 1 table.
If other leagues compete competitively because they compete consistently, while here we compete in inconsistency, right? lol
You're right, when I look at other leagues, the passion is different than when I look at this Ligue 1. Actually this is not something new here, because the past few seasons they have also shown something similar. Even a club like Paris Saint Germain who is labeled as the strongest club here is still inconsistent in their play. Well at least the competition is still here even with a different situation.

Napoli is currently ranked 5th on the Serie A rankings. The 1-3 defeat to Fiorentina at home made Napoli fans lose all patience with coach Rudi Garcia. They still play with a 4-3-3 formation, but their attack could be stronger and clearer. I was shocked, especially when he withdrew three key players, Osimhen, Lobotka, and Zielinski, from the field when Fiorentina was leading 1-2. Garica believes that this loss was due to player psychology leading to mistakes in defense, not due to tactics. He needs to be more talented to lead Napoli. What I need most from Mr. Garcia is humility and recognition of his mistakes to correct them.
As the weeks went on, I saw a decline from them, and this week they were beaten by Fiorentina at their own ground with a striking score too. I know this is also because Fiorentina played well and they were also in good form against Napoli. But this result will have an impact on most people's confidence in Napoli's current coach, and I wouldn't be surprised if many of their supporters call for Rudy Garcia to step down. I've predicted this before, that when he doesn't get Napoli to find their best game, he'll be the first to take the blame.
2899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: October 09, 2023, 01:09:41 PM
Arsenal won, therefore there will not be such a big scandal as after the Tottenham - Liverpool game, although in my opinion such a mistake has a greater impact on the outcome of the game than a counted or disallowed goal. Football has long since reached a level where a numerical majority means a lot (not like in hockey, but almost).
As for Holland, it makes sense to bet that he will score 2+ goals in the next game. For him it always happens at this pace - either nothing, or a hat trick.

Erling Haaland will get back to scoring ways, it is okay to feel like a big mess up. He lacked creative players to help with those passes.

I thought it was going to be a draw, but that all changed in the 86th minute when Gabriel Martinelli scored the only goal of the game to give Arsenal full points.
Although believed to be the strongest club at the moment, but Manchester City is not that strong to always get a victory in every match. After Wolves surprisingly beat them, now it's Arsenal's turn to make them swallow defeat for the second time this season.



Erling Haaland is undoubtedly one of the most prolific strikers in Europe but the fact that he's not been able to score in his last few games for Manchester City doesn't automatically mean that he'll definitely score two or goals in the club's next game.
Kelvin De Bruyne who assisted most of the Norwegian goals last season has been out injured since the first week of the English Premier League season and that has really affected Erling Haaland's goalscoring performance. There's no doubt that he can't score in next game but I there's no guarantee that he'll definitely score.
It's very normal when a player struggles to score goals, even if that player is a very good player like Erling Haaland, and the fact that he can also feel the conditions where he cannot help his club to win.
Yes, KDB's absence greatly affects them to score goals, this player has become a player who plays an important role in providing spoiled passes to players who are on the opponent's defense line to create a goal, and his absence is very pronounced for Manchester City.

Yes they are still better than the other 2 clubs below them, AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund. However, they still have a long way to go, as they still have 4 matches to play, and in those 4 matches anything can happen. Because other clubs like AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund also want to do their best before the group stage really ends and determines their position at the end of the standings later. Paris Saint Germain are still on a good path for now, but they still have to be able to improve, because the competition in the group they occupy is a tough competition compared to other groups.
Since the start of the draw for group F, Newcastle has been in the hell group with AC Milan, PSG and Borussia Dortmund. Newcastle was labeled the weakest club in their group because they had just returned to the Champions League after not appearing for a long time but again in the UCL but now they are in first place in the group. Indeed, the Champions League is difficult to predict, the aura of playing in the Champions League is very different from playing in the domestic league.

Yes, the match is still long, but looking at the current condition of the Newcastle squad, the players' skills are very evenly distributed from the back to the front lines, they are really evenly distributed in all lines, the reserve players are also good, so Eddie Howe just needs to mix it up with the right composition so he can beat Borussia Dortmund. Yes, PSG is still the favorite in the match against AC Milan, especially since the match is being held at PSG's home ground, I think this match will be a fixed price for PSG to get three points so that their hopes of qualifying for the next phase are still maintained.
It is also natural that they are labeled as the weakest club in this group, because their experience in the Champions League is still minimal and like it or not, it can indirectly affect their appearance in the game. But so far, until the 2nd match at least, they can show a good performance and even they are now at the top of the standings with 4 points. At least their journey can still compete is a good achievement, especially the group they live in is the strongest group and is said to be a hell group. Their chances of making it to the next round are very high.



One thing is that since Newcastle is new, most people and club will underestimate them and will not give them must attention, unknown to them that Newcastle came to the league to play aggressively in order for them to go far. The club is strong and the coach is a good coach that knows the important matches to win. Clubs will begin to take them serious such in case they go far, it will be a good record to them because after a long stay at home, they came back to price to the world that they are back and better. I know that they will still qualify to the champions league next season because they are doing well in EPL
Exactly as I said before, their inexperience in the Champions League is why they are not considered much in this group. Now with what they've achieved so far, there's no reason for other clubs not to consider them a serious contender in the Champions League.
One thing I will appreciate about them is their ability to capitalize on their finncial situation. We can't deny that they are what they are today because they have very good financial capabilities.
