To my surprise, Atletico Madrid actually had a good match. I want to say I believe they could actually win the match if it was not for the stupid red card that Correa picked up in the 64th minute of the match. Atletico Madrid did very well to break the deadlock even after being one man down. It was actually great to see both teams scoring from set pieces and also with headers. But that also rises the question that both teams probably are not being able to defend corners and set pieces properly. Actually not being able to defend is understandable at that point of the match because they are already one man down. Overall I think that Athletico Madrid had a good game.
Both teams played very well and Atletico Madrid surprised me with the good performance they showed because I was expecting to see Real Madrid winning the game because of their situation in the league and try to decrease the points they need for first position in the league but they got a draw and lost two points in this match while today and after just a few hours we have Barcelona and Almeria which can't be a hard match for Xavi and his players and if they successfully beat Almeria they can 62 points and take some more space with Real Madrid. I never thought that Atletico Madrid would perform so well against Real Madrid. I thought Real Madrid would beat Atletico Madrid in a big way. But the performance of Atletico Madrid with 10 players is truly commendable. |

Union Berlin and Bayern will be locking horn down in the German bundesliga today, union Berlin has been performing very well this season both in the international football and their club side the defeated Ajax 3:1 in the UEFA Europa league meeting and this makes them very fit to go into this game their opponent lost their last league encounter with monchenglabach and won PSG in the UEFA champions league which also make them a tough opponent in this game, the outcome of this match will be hard to determined currently, but if we consider the head to head record of both teams Bayern will win.
Yes, if you look at their head to head then we will see the fact that Bayern Munich is superior to Union Berlin, but this match might be very different from the history of their meetings. Union Berlin is in good shape to face Bayern Munich. Seeing the fact that they are one of the teams that are in the race to become champions this season. Bayern Munich are the big favourites, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Union Berlin beat the hosts. union berlin's chances of beating the host (bayern) are very small, the percentage only touches 12%, although last week, Bayern was beaten by Monchengladbach but this time it was a different. with the usual 4-2-3-1 formation, Negelsmann seems to still be placing choupo-moting as a lone striker, my prediction for this match is a 2-0 win for Bayern. Bayern Munich is playing great so far in this match. Union Berlin is not doing much good. Bayern Munich are attacking but the opposition is playing full defensive. But I believe Bayern Munich will win by a big margin in the end. |

Borussia Dortmund took a place at the top of the standings after this week they successfully beat Hoffenheim by a narrow score. Today two teams will fight for victory, yes Bayern Munich and Union Berlin will play to determine which position they will occupy after passing the 22nd week. This match is very crucial for both teams, because victory is the result they really want. Bayern Munich are the favorites, but they may not win. I can't wait to see how these two teams play.
Dortmund have remarkably overtaken Bayern Munich at the top of the points table. Bayern Munich were at the top for a while but Dortmund have won a few matches and now they have taken the top spot. |

Liverpool are just wasting all their chances in all the tournaments they compete in. In this way they are going to finish the season without a proper success. Finishing a season without titles is very bad for a team like Liverpool. Klopp will continue to be criticized harshly for that. As they are about to be eliminated in the Champions League as well he might be in trouble too maybe. Klopp deserves to be given more chances maybe due to his great history with the team so far. But this is really too much for them. Liverpool not only experienced a decline in performance in the Premier League, but also on the Champions League stage. The 5-2 defeat to Real Madrid made Liverpool move to the Champions League quarter finals even more difficult. Even though there is still 90 minutes left in the second leg, it is impossible for Liverpool to win the match at the Bernabeu with a score of 4-0. A draw at Crystal Palace headquarters made Liverpool fail to improve their position in the standings list, now Liverpool are 9 points adrift of Tottenham who are in the final position of the Champions League zone. Klopp is still given the opportunity to improve Liverpool appearance, Liverpool management will not be in a hurry to make a decision in terms of changing coaches because they have learned from what Chelsea is currently experiencing. Klopp has helped Liverpool a lot and has successfully raised Liverpool performance since the last 8 years, during difficult times like this Klopp needs support to restore Liverpool performance so they can return to competing in the Premier League and Champions League. Liverpool still have the opportunity to improve their ranking for the rest of the season, fourth position is their target so they can appear in the UCL next season. It is not acceptable that Liverpool drew today's match. Because Liverpool is a much better team than the opposition team, but in today's match, the opposition team stopped Liverpool brilliantly. |

I don’t see it as Felix playing individually because due to lack of any creative midfielder he has to find a way to dazzle his way into the boss. Chelsea should seriously look at how they lack creativity and work on it. The attackers are just playing different football with coordination it might be because of numerous changes Potter always makes in his starting line up. The new guys haven’t played more minutes together to understand themselves well. Things are just going bad for Chelsea this win brings them closer to the relegation zone than the top 4 or 6. Silva injury today just sums up how messed up their season has been.
But nonetheless Big three points for Tottenham, both Manchester United and Newcastle are out of league duties this weekend and they just close up the gaps. They have performed perfectly well in the absence of their manager and should they keep on going this way then it might be hard for Newcastle to get back into the top 4
In terms of creativity I think they are slowly getting into it. I think Chelsea have enough quality to find better space and initiate better attacks. They will get to it eventually is what I feel. Potter must be having lot in his head with his options so its not just easy for him as well. Their defense has been a sign to worry and they really need to fix that as soon as possible. Great game for Spurs though with the way handled Chelsea 's attack and they totally deserved it. They now stand fourth on the table but Newcastle have the chance to overtake them with two games in hand compared to Spurs. I think Newcastle are on the better end than Spurs right now. We can't just underestimate Newcastle with the way they have played the season so far. In the second half, Tottenham managed to put on a remarkable performance. Chelsea played well in the first half but in the second half Tottenham managed to take control of the game and secure victory. |

I think FIFA Know what they are doing by making two countries to host the world cup. This might be the first time this is happening but we need to understand that there are many countries that are very ready to host the world cup and due to the competition, I think FIFA has the option or power to decide who will host the next world cup entire.
Whether there are two countries hosting the world cup, we will need to try this out if it is going tobe a better option foe peopl.
It's actually going to be three countries hosting the next world cup, USA, Canada, and Mexico. They have never done this before, only two teams have hosted it before, Korea-Japan 2002. It will definitely be a tricky world cup to organize, so we'll see how it goes. It's probably going to bring more money to FIFA though... I think it would be better to host the World Cup in one country. Because even if there is no problem with the player or the team, the travel cost will be high for football lovers to watch the game. These aspects need to be considered by FIFA. |

I don't think the Empoli team is strong. However, this team is capable of drawing matches by playing defensively. They scored 22 goals in 23 matches. And Empoli has drawn 10 out of 23 matches. Empoli will also aim for a draw against Napoli. Don't think the Empoli team will beat Napoli. However, this match is unlikely to be a draw. As Empoli aim for a draw, it will be difficult for Napoli to win this match. But I have full confidence in Napoli's attack. They will score anyway and achieve full points.
Even though napoli was leading serie a but empoli is always become a tough opponent to be beaten by napoli. It can be seen from head to head between napoli against empoli. Napoli was not dominating the head to head against empoli. This time napoli is very strong in serie a but i can't even deny the fact that if empoli may able to force the match to be draw. Osimhen will be the only key to help napoli get another full points against empoli. Empoli is always doing well when it was facing napoli. that's why osimhen must be working so hard to win against empoli. Napoli is still the safest bet at this moment but we can't deny that if empoli has a chance to get draw against napoli as long as it was performing so well like defending all attacks that'll come from napoli. As the host, Empoli really excelled against Napoli, but sometimes these results can change in matches where Napoli will win this match. But as you said the chances of a draw are still wide open, but if Napoli loses, the probability is only 10%. But I will still bet on Napoli's victory, considering that they are on fire in all competitions and if Napoli win they will secure 3 additional points to secure the Scudetto this season. I don't see any possibility of Napoli losing this match. Because Napoli are in one of the best form this season. Napoli have been playing very seriously in every match, so it can be said that they will play this match very well and ensure victory. |

SerieA games are unpredictable but when it comes to Napoli I think winning is certain because of what they are capable of doing. Napoli is the most reliable and consistent team in the italian league when it comes to performance. If you check in the last 5 previous games Victor Osimhen scores in every game, the game against Napoli I'm sure a goal awaits Victor Osimhen. I call him the scoring machine of Napoli, Empoli is not fit to defeat Napoli because Empoli is not even stable in performance.
Last season Empoli was a bit better. but this season Empoli have not shown any improvement. Meanwhile, Napoli since last season has become a team that has good consistency. it's just that last season Napoli had some bad luck like Victor Osimhen who was injured. And at that time it took quite a long time for Osimhen to be able to return to playing. So that Napoli had experienced several consecutive defeats last season. but in this season Napoli continues to stay at the top of the standings without a hitch. In fact, very few Napoli players have been injured. And Napoli's mainstay player, Victor Osimhen, is always in optimal condition this season. so it is true that Victor Osimhen almost always scores goals in every match that Napoli plays. and now even Osimhen is the top scorer in Serie A. 5 players who are the top scorers in the current Serie A  I don't think Empoli will be able to beat Napoli. Because the Napoli team has been playing very well since the past few days. And the Empoli team is far behind the performance of the Napoli team. |

Liverpool has not really been a team that we can really be sure about when we place our bets, there is no way to be sure how Liverpool will perform, but crystal palace for sure have a very good attacking threat with Jordan Ayew, Eberechi Eze and Michael Olise, and will definitely be sure to put pressure on Liverpool's shaky defense. To Liverpool's benefit, Zaha their best player will not be playing due to his hamstring strain. Liverpool still have a chance to still qualify for top four, they can still do it, but with any game they loose, the chances slips more away. If they mess up, there will be no champions league spot for Liverpool next season just as Chelsea's own is still not sure.
Liverpool have not fully recovered, and it seems that many doubt Liverpool's victory. If you want to place a bet on this match, then you should be able to consider the amount of bet you are using. If you look at it from a strength perspective, Liverpool should have won against Crystal Palace, but if Liverpool accidentally made a mistake and used Crystal Palace well to score a goal, then Liverpool could lose. Liverpool's style of play has deteriorated drastically. Despite having good players in the team, they are not able to perform well. I think the coach of the team should use some new techniques. |

 Fulham is a bit superior maybe because has experienced their performance and host factor. Fulham was able to beat Brighton on their home which is quite difficult to conquer especially a strong team like Liverpool. While Wolves, they seem like lost confidence after got shamed by Bournemouth in home. I believe fulham might not a problem to beat Wolves 2-0 tomorrow. Yes, I totally agree with this very statement of yours, because looking at the past 5 matches, Fulham have actually been playing a good game to have Won 3 and Draw 2, unlike the Wolves who have won only 2 and lost 3 out of the last 5 previously played matches both home and away. And with that I seems to be more confident that in today game the match will likely end in favour of Fulham or play draw in the worst case scenario. So my prediction is either Home or draw Congrats to your prediction, I don't know what happens with fulham, even with balance for each team and having the same statistic of ball possession, fulham seems like under pressure and can not improve their situation during 1st half. Maybe the injured factor is Mitrovic, and Solomon is still a hero with pretty goals to save fulham from the lose. Fulham needed to win the match. Fulham had some great chances in this match but they failed to capitalize on those opportunities. Fulham are sixth in the league points table, and the team doesn't see much chance of achieving anything better. |

One of the games I'm looking forward to is the Tottenham vs Chelsea game. Because in this match Chelsea had to fight to be able to win the match and get points at Tottenham. maybe a draw would also be better for Chelsea. because at least Chelsea can get 1 point. but it will be difficult.
I'm afraid Chelsea will be displaced by Aston Villa. because Aston Villa now has 28 points and Chelsea has 31 points. And if Aston Villa can win the game against Everton. then that would be level on points between Aston Villa and Chelsea. and Aston Villa appear to have the upper hand on goal difference compared to Chelsea.
Graham Potter, the manager of Chelsea, disclosed on the front page of the Mirror that he had received hate mail from fans calling for the coach and his kids to die. That is one of the weirdest emails a coach might receive at this crucial moment when he is gearing up to improve his team's performance. Although the blues are in a bad situation, I still thought the team had enough strength to compete with Tottenham Hotspur at the maximum standards. Blues' standing is unimportant since as they stopped winning league matches, they need to improved both their place and their points total. Tottenham vs Chelsea match will be very competitive. Both teams will perform well in this match, because I see both teams equally in terms of performance. I personally cannot predict which team will secure victory. |

I think Torino can make big difficulties for Juventus in Turin. There is only one point between these teams. I know that it is due to the punishment Juventus have been given. But still Torino aren't a weak team in the league. They are a team that have a big potential to make things harder for big teams of the league. They eliminated Milan in the Coppa Italia as well for example.
Juventus need to be as effective as possible at scoring. Playing like in the Nantes game would be a big help for them as well. In that way they can secure a decent win.
There are huge differences between Juventus and Torino. Juventus are more likely to win this match, as the Torino team is much less capable. |

Napoli wil be trying to maintain their first position and i think they are definitely going to be just as they face a stubborn empoli but with the current winning streak which napoli are on now, i feel this match wont be a very difficult match for them as the strick force of napoli front line are currently in tremendous scoring form. I think for any team to catch up to napoli will be a very difficult thing happening now as the team competiting with them for the seria A are far behind in points .
Napoli is going to probably win this match against Empoli quite easily in the end. I do not believe that after beating almost all major teams in this league, they are going to drop points or lose against Empoli. This is going to be a win for Napoli again. And this should be easy enough for them to actually experiment a little. Napoli has a lot of points advantage with them. At this point, I believe it is going to be impossible for any team to catch them. I don't think the Empoli team is strong. However, this team is capable of drawing matches by playing defensively. They scored 22 goals in 23 matches. And Empoli has drawn 10 out of 23 matches. Empoli will also aim for a draw against Napoli. Don't think the Empoli team will beat Napoli. However, this match is unlikely to be a draw. As Empoli aim for a draw, it will be difficult for Napoli to win this match. But I have full confidence in Napoli's attack. They will score anyway and achieve full points. Both teams to score in this match is a must and i think it is really possible. Napoli probobly wont go with full power will probobly save their team for champions league. But i think still napoli will win this match and dominate the league as always. Napoli will surely be able to beat Empoli. Because Napoli are currently able to beat the big teams. And Empoli is far behind Napoli. So all things considered it can be said that Napoli will get a great win. |

Napoli's match against Empoli is unlikely to end in a draw because, so far, Napoli has shown in every match that they can always win.
So when they meet Empoli in the upcoming match on February 26, it will be easy for Napoli to win. They are unlikely to give Empoli the chance to score.
Although almost all the games in Seria A are unpredictable but I can comfortably predict that Napoli will win the match against Empoli. Empoli have not won any game in four matches while Napoli is currently on fire. From all indications Napoli is showing no sign of slowing down until they win the league title. No club has the attacking power like the Napoli team in the entire European football environment. Empoli is not also a team to underated because the have gotten some good results against big teams. The drew against Lazio and won Inter Milan. A draw will be a good result for Empoli and it might not really affect the quest of Napoli to win the league because they have many points advantage over other clubs. SerieA games are unpredictable but when it comes to Napoli I think winning is certain because of what they are capable of doing. Napoli is the most reliable and consistent team in the italian league when it comes to performance. If you check in the last 5 previous games Victor Osimhen scores in every game, the game against Napoli I'm sure a goal awaits Victor Osimhen. I call him the scoring machine of Napoli, Empoli is not fit to defeat Napoli because Empoli is not even stable in performance. Napoli is one of the best teams in the Italian league. The Napoli team has been able to perform exceptionally well this season. One of the contributions of this team's good performance is the coach of the team. Besides, the players of the team are also taking themselves forward. |

Here are the results from the games that took place this evening: FC Midtjylland 0-4 Sporting Lisbon FT Agg:1 - 5
Monaco 2-3 Bayer Leverkusen AET Agg:5 - 5 Bayer Leverkusen win 5-3 on penalties.
Nantes 0-3 Juventus FT Agg:1 - 4
PSV Eindhoven 2-0 Sevilla FT Agg:2 - 3
1. FC Union Berlin 3-1 Ajax FT (Agg 3 - 1)
Manchester United 2-1 Barcelona FT (Agg 4 - 3)
Roma 2-0 Red Bull Salzburg (Agg 2 - 1)Rennes vs Shakhtar Donetsk is in to extra-time and the score is 1-0 on the night and 2-2 on aggregate. After going in at half-time 0-1, Manchester United scored 3 second half goals to knock Barcelona out of the Europa League. Ajax, Monaco and Roma are out.  @JollyGood Manchester United won once again due to Erik ten Hag tactics and what an impact Anthony had, because I remember that he was being criticised a lot for his performances recently. However Rashford seems to be injured which is not a good sign for the club, and if he suffers any long term injury then Manchester United will find it difficult to win the Europa league. Manchester United managed to perform great at their home ground against Barcelona. However, Barcelona put Manchester United under great pressure. But in the end we enjoyed a wonderful match with the victory of Manchester United. |

Playing at home clearly gives you an advantage. Here are the world cup winners at home:
1930, Uruguay
1934, Italy
1966, England
1974, West Germany
1978, Argentina
1998, France
And you can see that the best performance of each team is usually when they hosted the world cup.
Not always, and there are also hosts with good World Cup history who are big favorites who fail in front of their own crowd 1990 Italy Champion West Germany 2006 Germany Champion of Italy 2014 Brazil Champion Germany Can gives an advantage but also a definite disadvantage as they will feel the pressure of having to win stronger, and it was quite bad when Brazil lost to Germany in the quarter-finals by a landslide 2014. I think it's unfortunate that Brazil won't make it to the finals in this year's 2022 World Cup. But for 2026, the Brazil team will build themselves up and be considered one of the best teams in the World Cup. |

Real Madrid struggled with Osasuna for a long time yesterday, but in the end they won 3 points. Today, Barcelona will probably answer this result with a victory. Barcelona will go into this match heavily weakened as Dembele and Pedri are out injured and Araujo is suspended for yellow cards. However, there are also many injured players in the Cadiz team, and even with a full squad they should not pose a threat to Barcelona.
Yes, taking into account that Cádiz has never been a top tier team and that this season is not being any different (16th place in the standings is what they deserve looking at their performance), they should not pose any risk, especially when Barça is aware of the gap they have to maintain between them and Real Madrid. Let's see, but I don't expect any surprises either. Real Madrid have been performing well to go top of the La Liga points table. But on the other hand, Barcelona's performance is not comparable, they are taking their team forward. I believe it will be a great competitive match if Real Madrid and Barcelona meet in the coming days. |

Firstly I can't trust Liverpool's performance this season. Liverpool is now a team in disarray. Compared to them, the Real Madrid team is much more stable. Ancelotti is also a very experienced coach. He knows very well what strategy is required to play on a platform like the Champions League. And so whatever the odds in this match, I'll bet Real Madrid to win. I believe Madrid will not make any mistakes in the first leg. they will win.
The atmosphere of the Champions League is clearly very different from the EPL. So from that, it could be that Liverpool, who are currently still inconsistent in terms of performance, but I hope that by facing Real Madrid both of them will have a large enough influence so that in this match they can motivate Liverpool's players to be able to keep up with Real Madrid. I personally would not bet, or maybe take the draw option in this big fight. I think that losing the final against Real Madrid was very painful for Liverpool in 2022. The game was all about Liverpool, but in the end Real Madrid scored the goal. While I expected Liverpool to win it last year, I am not so sure about this year. Real Madrid isn't playing that well either this season, but they have a psychological advantage I think. A lot might depend on an early goal for Liverpool because when they met the last time Liverpool had 24:4 shots and yet they didn't score. I think they could get nervous if this game goes a similar way and that is when Real Madrid has all that experience to make it through in the end. It's going to be an exciting game. I don't see Real Madrid having much of a chance in the Champions League. However, if Real Madrid can perform as aggressively as La Liga in the Champions League, there may be some chances in the remaining matches. |

I see Bayern Munich winning this seasons Champions league trophy, their performances in a while is incredible, they only need to convert more chances of scoring, they are favorites ahead of PSG and Real Madrid. If they don’t win the trophy, they will get to the finals.
Bayern Munich is a good team and their position in the Champions League is good. However, if we compare their performance with PSG's team, Bayern Munich is in a good place. However, if Bayern Munich meets Manchester City earlier, Manchester City has a higher chance of advancing to the next stage. |

I thought that 20 points possible for napoli but it seems like intermilan was still lucky to scored two goals before full time.  Another good result by milan even though the club was winning only with 1 goal against monza but that's good enough rather than get nothing. Another upcoming match that looks so easy to bet is atalanta vs lecce. Im sure that 90% atalanta will be wining against lecce consider lecci has horrible performance during last 5 matches. Juventus vs spezia gonna be easy bet too. Despite, the victory Inter achieved from Udinese last night that made their points to increased, doesn't mean they can take the first position from Napoli because Napoli are still ahead of Inter which is still giving Napoli fans hope of achieving this Italian league competition title this season. Juventus will be my favorite between Spezia match, because Juventus displayed some good skills in their last match that made people to believed that they can still achieve something good in their remaining matches. I don't think, Spezia players has the power to stop Juventus players not to score goals that will give them victory in their next match. No one should be doubting Napoli in Serial A, for now, they've made the right choices of players and are 15 points above their closest rival, which is not a joke. The presence of Victor Osinhem and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia among others has blessed the club, others might only try if their top players don't have injuries. As for Juventus and Spezia, you can't compare them, Juventus will always be my favourite. If not for the 15 points deduction, they would have been in the third spot in the league above Inter Milan. And despite being in a lower spot, they continue to give in their best efforts as they don't belong there. Serie A is over. Although it is hard to imagine but even if Napoli loses every second game from now on, that would still leave them with 86 points. That in turn would mean that Inter has to win 13 out of their last 15 games to score the same number of points. I really doubt it. For now it is more interesting to see whether Juventus can cope with their penalty and still make it into the champions league. I just thought if I were a Juventus player, I would be really pissed if we had actually won the title but lost it because of a penalty. Now since Juventus is so far behind I think that even without the penalty they would have not had a chance this season. Napoli is able to perform well in the Serie A league. The rest of the teams are not performing well against Napoli and the teams playing against Napoli are losing. Napoli have great potential to win the title. |
