I'm so surprised that Aston Villa were able to draw the match with Manchester United. Wow, that's awesome,  good performance Aston villa. All my mind was that Manchester United would have shined with that match.
Since the kick off of the 2nd half, Aston Villa played better than the 1st half. They dominated the game, created so many goal attempts in the early 15 minutes but De Gea did his job well with his saves. I thought it was the end when Bruno scored the 2nd goal but I was wrong, Aston Villa did not give up and they forced themselves to fight till the end of the match. A well deserved point for Aston Villa, but looking at how both team play, I think Aston Villa is better than United.
I agree with you it's not luck Aston Villa did it with every effort even I think if the game had more time then Aston Villa could have scored the 3rd goal
I saw how Aston Villa were overconfident since scoring the first goal until it continues in the 2nd goal at the same time the mentality of the Man United players is starting to down sadly Aston Villa  doesn't have more time time must end.

In fact, it is the misfortune of Austin Villa and the poor performance of Manchester United. They are lead by 2-0 till 77 minutes, still they drew this match. Manchester United should have been more tactful. Although they have changed coaches, I don't think current coach Ralf Rangnick is experienced enough. In almost every match we see Manchester United's weak tactics. Players also need to be more confident. Despite having such a strong squad, their performance is like that of weak teams. I don't see any tendency in them to perform well.

There is no guarantee that PSG will win. The match is likely to be drawn even if not defeated. There is a possibility that several important players of PSG are injured. But today Icardi and De Maria will play. With the help of Mbappe -Di Maria -Icardi maybe PSG's forward can play better today.
PSG have won all of the last 9 matches against Brest. So although some important players are not in the squad. Yet PSG can win today. I bet on PSG today. Although there is some risk in betting, hopefully PSG will not disappoint us today.
Your point is valid with current form PSG is playing not good, and they have just 7 points from last 5 matches with 4 draws and just 1 win on other side Brest is also having 7 points with 2 wins and 1 draw both teams have one-sided affair in history with PSG is leading one-sided but currently many players out of squad and few lack of match practices can create problem for PSG and Brest is already having nothing to do they will play bravely for having something from this match which is possible because draw is also just like win for them.

Brest has nothing to lose. They may not expect to win against a team like PSG. But if the players can play completely confidently, and play attacking tactics, it will be difficult for PSG to win this match. I never thought PSG's defense was too strong. They also concede goals against weaker teams. But, Donnarumma is a talented goalkeeper. However, the match has begun. Let's enjoy the match.


St Étienne is surely going to down and out from French League with their current form they take early lead and then give away good win to Lens by injury time goal and now having no win for last many matches with staying at rock bottom of league.
I would say today's defeat is unfortunate for Saint-Etienne. Because throughout the match Etienne's players did their best to score points. They played very well. Unfortunately they conceded a goal in extra time and lost.

My gosh, I can't believe the Warriors had a huge blowout win against the Bulls. I'm thinking that the Bulls are really a strong team but they lose to the Nets, now the Warriors. It was a nice bounce back by the Warriors, they only took out Thompson to stop their losing streak, and now they are back.
Curry wasn't so impressive but the contribution of all is pretty evident in this game, and that's the reason why they dominated the Bulls.
This is the big difference between the Lakers and the Warriors right now.

In the Warriors, even their star player Stephen Curry doesn't have a big night there is somebody who can step up, contribute and even carry the whole team to victory and that is why they are one of the most dominating teams right now.

In the Lakers, even Lebron is having an off night it isn't enough for the team to win "sometimes". I mean there is no second or third contributor to the team when it comes to offense. Stepping up is what they need but as the trade deadline is coming, I think the best for the team is to trade some players and get younger ones. No offense and Lebron is a great leader of the team. Its just that the players around him doesn't contributing much for them to dominate the league.

Overall, its nice to see that the Warriors have players who can just take over whenever Steph is having a bad night.

@Sanitough, Yeah... As Stephen Curry was struggling, you know, Kuminga really showed his game perfectly. His shouting, rebounding was a spectacular scene, wasn't it?
All the moment I was expecting he should have given more time in the court. But after a couple of losses, they really didn't take any chance. They totally focused on the team effort and it really paid off. Actually, Bulls is a really good team but they need to up their game. Or else it will be hard for them to make a comeback, I think.

PSG - Brest from the point of view of bookmakers it is quoted as:
1.25 - 6.4 - 12.0
It's hard to believe that PSG won't win today, but the odds on offer are very slim. Maybe it's worth making a multibet on the victory of PSG 1.25 + total over 1.4 + Mbappe will score a goal 3.4? The final coefficient will be 5.95 - it seems to be reasonable.

There is no guarantee that PSG will win. The match is likely to be drawn even if not defeated. There is a possibility that several important players of PSG are injured. But today Icardi and De Maria will play. With the help of Mbappe -Di Maria -Icardi maybe PSG's forward can play better today.

Messi was a great player for Barcelona, prolly the best to ever come out of camp nou, but I'd not say that he singlehandedly carried Barcelona to glory, I know he was their most important and influential player, But Barcelona is a great club and they had a lot of quality players, Messi made them absolutely complete, but he wasn't everything, he also needed other players to function as well, what I mean is, Barca and Messi had a seamless relationship. Just take a look at how things are panning out in PSG for Messi, he isn't at his best cause he does not seem to have the sort of connection he had at Barcelona. Having said that, I still don't think PSG are somewhat ready to win the CL, they have the individual talents, but as a team, they are not the best and it could still take them a while before they are CL champions.

Messi wasn't singlehandedly carrying but he had the most impact on the pitch for Barcelona. We also cannot deny the impact players like Xavi, Iniesta or Neymar had but Messi had the most impact. Before Neymar and Suarez joined, he had the duty of scoring goals and he did that very well. Even scoring 91 goals in a calendar year.
(I dunno how he did that) After Neymar and Suarez joined, he moved to the right flank and assisted them with tons of goals also while he scored lots by himself.

@Coyster, yes agreed, not singlehandedly but he was the most important player in my eyes. I'm not saying that Iniesta or Xavi didn't do anything for Barcelona but if we look at the larger timeline, with Xavi/Iniesta and after the Xavi/Iniesta era, Messi is the most important one. Even before he left, Barcelona were in a good state. Their attacks were good,, the build-up was good. But after he left, it seemed like Barcelona forgot to build up to the attack.

I don't know what happened by the Bucks is leading by a huge margin against the Warriors.
Can the Warriors turn it around as we are already in the 3rd quarter and it is a low scoring game which does not favor them.

Pels also leading the Clippers at the second half. So goodluck to all bettors, we still have another good game, Blazers vs Nuggets.

There's nothing to be surprised by what happened, Warriors are playing against the defending champion, so it's not impossible that the Bucks will dominate and win. Now that the Warriors are in a back to back losses, both with a huge margins, let's see if they'll make the right adjustment in the next game.

GSW have lost by a huge margin of 19 points. You know, they had a really good start to the season and were playing quite well but in the last few matches, they haven't been playing their own self and lost now against the Bucks.

Yes, the bucks are a good team - defending champions but I expected GSW to give them a hard time but they failed. Curry and Klay both had a disappointing game as they scored 12 and 11 points respectively. On the other hand, Giannis, Portis, and Middleton scored 20+ and Giannis scored 30 points. I'm hoping the GSW can turn around in the next game.

Besiktas     VS     Gaziantep

What is your prediction about this match? Gazisehir Gaziantep FK has maintained an outstanding performance over the past few matches. Besiktas, on the other hand, are a strong team but their performance is very irregular. They are still the 9th team in the points table. Today's match is Besiktas' home match. However, considering the recent performance, Gaziantep is definitely the favorite in this match. I think Gaziantep will be able to continue their winning streak in this match as well.

Rishab Pant scored100 (not out), India (10)scoored 98. We do not expect such bad batting from the Indian team. With the exception of Kohli and Pant, no batsman has been able to handle 40 balls. We have been watching such performances of the Indian team for a long time. Kohli was not in form, after watching Kohli's performance in the first innings, many expected him to play better in the second innings. But he scored only 29 runs. Yet he is the second-highest scorer in the innings. However, South Africa is battling for 212 runs. Hopefully South Africa will win.

Lol. I had a lot of fun watching the Indian team batting. I would say only Virat Kohli has played like a Test batsmen. And Pant thought it was an ODI match. His strike rate is up to 70+. All the other batsmen thought this match was T20. They got down to batting and quickly returned to the dressing room. All in all, it's terrible batting.
South Africa have already scored 101 runs. South Africa lost only 2 wickets. All you need to win is 111 runs. However, I would not say that South Africa will win this match easily. Tomorrow morning, the Indian bowlers will be able to pick up a few wickets quickly, the match will be under India's control.

But my mindset and prediction changed this night after watching Barcelona vs Real Madrid in Spanish super cup.
Barcelona played more than Real Madrid both in possessions, passes completed and attacks.
Honestly, Xavi has improved those boys .
With what I saw this night, Barcelona has a good chance against Napoli.

Still lost. And I think this has happened in several games this time. Barcelona even have good moments throughout the match, but then they can't win.
Of course it is improving a lot. A couple of months ago we weren't able to see them score 2 goals against Real Madrid.

Barcelona are a sleeping monster. Certainly, Xavi will continue to improve the team's performance. In a month, Napolis will have to work harder to win.

Even though they lost, I have to say and many might disagree with me, Barcelona played better football than RMA in this Classico.

Yes RMA won the game, that too from a winner from Fede Valverde in the 98th minute, but overall Barca played better football than Real Madrid.

I was sure that Barca will lose badly but they have shown very good resistance and resilience and I'm optimistic about the game against Napoli in EL. Napoli is a strong squad but no better than Real Madrid in my opinion.

So, if Barca do well against RMA, if they do their homework well and Xavi can execute his tactics well, I think they will get a good result against Napoli.

It surprised me that Nigeria won against Egypt. I am not underestimating the Nigerian team. But I thought the Egyptian team was more stable. Because they have one of the best strikers, Salah. He is an aeome player. Having such a good player, Egypt has also been defeated. They made only 4 shots in this match.
Of course, Salah is a very brilliant player when he plays for Liverpool, he stands out as one of the best players in the world in that respect, but the same cannot be said of him when he plays for Egypt, and one can easily understand why, the quality in the Liverpool side is by far better than that of the Egyptian national side, and thus there's always bound to be disparity in his respective performances for the two sides.

Obviously the Liverpool team cannot be compared with the Egyptian team. The Liverpool team is much stronger. At the same time the team is very stable. There are many talented players in the team. But Salah is the most important player in the Liverpool team. The team is largely dependent on him. Maybe the Egyptian squad is not strong. Yet in yesterday's match I expected better gameplay from Salah. But Salah could not play well. The Egyptian team needs overall development. The more they need to strengthen the midfield.

While people were talking about the Everton - Leicester match tomorrow, the match was postponed unfortunately. It is due to covid-19 as always. Covid-19 has been just tearing this league apart too. This was already a missing match for both teams and it has been postponed once more. I don't know until when things will go on like this. I hope to see covid-19 leaving football alone after winter.
The covid 19 outbreak has hit the world of football again, where a lot of European players have been affected by the virus, so that some matches have to be postponed, such as the Leicester city vs Everton match. Currently, especially many matches in the English league have to be postponed due to the outbreak, such as in the Liverpool vs Arsenal match in the English league cup a few weeks ago, we hope that in January there will be no more virus afflicting football players so that matches are no longer postponed like they used to be

Players and clubs should have been more aware from the beginning of December. The World Health Organization made everyone aware. Clubs should have strictly reintroduced restrictions. If everyone was aware, then many Serie and Premier League matches would not have been abandoned now. I don't expect the situation to improve so quickly. The situation will get worse in the future if the players are not aware of their own initiative.

Cagliari and Bologna had the same result in the previous two matches, it was a good result for both but it looks like Bologna at this moment have quite good power. Bologna managed to win away against Sassuolo with clean sheets, while Sassuolo are a mid-table team that sometimes surprises the top-ranked teams. Therefore, I personally seem to still choose Bologna to win in this match even though I also know that Cagliari are struggling to get out of the relegation zone which of course will still be a fierce match.

Although Bologna is ahead of Cagliari in the points table, though Cagliari cannot be considered weak. This is Cagliari's home match. Any team in the home match can be terrible. Moreover, Cagliari's past performance against Bologna is good. I have seen the last 5 face-to-face results. Cagliari has won two matches, Bologna has won two and drawn one. In these 5 matches Cagliari scored 7 goals and Bologna scored 8 goals. SO, Cagliari has a chance to win. Bologna have to play very carefully.

The Nets with another tough loss...  They aren't playing too well lately.  Sort of disappointing but I'm sure they'll get it together eventually.  I think even in the Jarrett Allen and DeAngelo Russell days they played better than this.  I think the rule changes and covid rules have something to do with it, but you'd think Durant would be able to carry his team better than this.  Maybe they're trying to play it safe and avoid injuries or are waiting until after the all star break to turn it on...  We'll see...
Confused Brooklyn Nets. Losing against a team without their stars Dame, CJ, and Powell. Yes, that's disappointing. Blake Griffin only played 11 minutes, I don't know what happened but Irving and KD played 40+ minutes and now I am starting to think they are doing load management thing that had been a disgust to most critics back then. Being safe in the 2nd spot give credits to do this strategies and more teams will be doing the same while they are not on check because of Covid issues.
And it's really hard for us bettors who thinks that Brooklyn can win this game and not to go ease with Portland since they don't have their stars. Unfortunately, for us, the Nets losses this game by a good margin. However, I don't think they are doing load management, they used to be on the top spot in the Eastern conference and if they won't win they the Sixers and the Bucks are going to take their position in the second spot so no need to play safe right now.

I think that KD is playing his best game. Yes, he can do better, but though he is giving his 100%. What's missing is the support from his teammates. If you look at the stats, only 3 players from the Nets were able to score double digits. But 5 players from Trail Blazers were able to hit double digits and among them, 3 hit the 20 point mark.
I thought that after Kyrie's return, the Nets will be able to bring in better results but even his return doesn't seem like has made any difference whatsoever.

Roma vs Juventus is currently the match of the year, what an interesting match, Roma was carried away thinking that they cannot loose with the fact that they are leading by two goals, Pellegrini could have leveled it up, a poor penalty from him cost them, Juventus really fought hard, can't believe that they can score good three goals in just 11min.

This is the most exciting match I've ever seen this year. The first half ended in a 1-1 draw. Both teams played well in the first half. But the second half became more enjoyable. Roma took a 3-1 lead in the 53rd minute. It seemed at the time that Juventus might not be able to return to the truck. However, in 70 to 77 minutes Juventus scored 3 goals and took the lead in the match again. Roma then had a chance to score from the penalty spot but they missed. As a result, Juventus won the match 4-3.

Torino   vs   Fiorentina

This is an away match for Fiorentina. I have watched Fiorentina's last several matches. Their performance in recent times is very commendable. Against a strong team like AC Milan they scored 4 goals and won. They have not lost in the last 6 matches. Looking at the performance of their past matches, I bet on Fiorentina's victory. Fiorentina's attack is strong enough. I think they can score a few goals today. Lets enjoy the match.

Edit : Just now Torino has scored a goal. They are ahead of Fiorentina. Yet my hope is that Fiorentina will be able to win the match. Maybe we can see several goals from both teams.

And they will increase from 3 to 6.

It's great to see that F1 is always looking for new things to engage fans more and win new ones too.
Happy to know that the São Paulo GP is one of those chosen to host this news.
There will definitely be more action on the track, drivers and teams will be better rewarded based on their merit and it also gives others the chance to bounce back over the weekend in order to increase their chances of doing well on Sunday.
I'm already looking forward to the restart of F1.

This is some great news for the fans and I also think that this will be a better decision for the future of F1 in general.
Having varieties of races will get the fans more engaged and maybe we'll get to see different cars excelling at different types of races?

Also, this will test the drivers to the limits and also the organization itself. Do you guys think that the organizations will change the cars for different races or will use the same one for all?

Thunder vs Nuggets was a close fight but as expected Nikola Jokic and Austin Rivers have kept the pace to a Nuggets win, the Oklahoma Thunders really giving the Nuggets a hard time in the 2nd and 3rd quarters of the game,
A well-deserved win for Oklahoma City. Although was a close game, they came on top of the Nuggets. It was a match well-played by Jokic and Rivers as both scored 22 points but seems like every player in the Thunder squad had a run at the basket  Grin.


While the Mavericks VS Bulls at the last moment Luka Doncic is playing I say to myself it will be a hard game for the Chicago Bulls and the combined efforts of DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine is not enough to Luka Doncic, Maxi Kleber, and Josh Green's combination, it was a great game and losing my bet was still OK,
And the Mavs won by a big margin of 14 points against the Bulls. DeRozan disappointed me in this game. He could've played far better than scoring only 20 points in the minutes he was given. Though he's aging and that's a factor as well. sorry for your loss.


And this game makes me really cry, the return of Klay Thomson was really spectacular, that dunk he made getting away on Cavalier's 4 defenders was the highlight I think everyone love and the Otto Porter Jr. Moments when he made a shot then got a foul a 3 point play, then when getting his free throw I really think he intentionally misses that shot to rebound and make a 2 point score, that was really a great play, in my opinion, it was a fun game to watch even though Draymond Green really is playing this game but suddenly came out after the tip-off, and it said to the news that it is because he was suffering from a left calf tightness,
And the GSW win again Cheesy. They are having a big winning streak right now and now they look better than ever with the addition of Klay.

Both Osasuna and Sevilla did impressed my eyes yesterday fixtures.
I don't understand why Sevilla and Osasuna fascinated you. Both the matches were one-sided. Sevilla are a much stronger team than Getafe. Osasuna, on the other hand, is a better team than Cadiz. Cadiz is now in the relegation zone. I won the bet in both the matches. The result of the match was easily predicted.


Athletico Madrid are nowhere ready to defend the la Liga...they have no motivation since Suarez got injured.
The problem is that after winning the title the previous season, we expected a good performance from Atletico Madrid this season. We thought they would fight for the title this season. But we have seen their poor performance since the beginning of the season. They are now more weaker due to Suarez's injury. They are performing very irregularly.
