Turkish Super League is going sort of competitive this year, between 3 relatively big teams Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray and Beşiktaş. I think this week Galatasaray may lose points because they are missing important defenders and team is generally unstable. Beşiktaş is pretty fine.
Besiktas is in a very good position. They are 3 point ahead of Galatasaray despite playing one match less. And 5 points ahead of Fenerbahce. Galatasaray has lost 8 points in the last 5 matches. Fenerbahce lost 7 points. But Besiktas lost only 2 points. The Besiktas are in great form and have the best chance of winning their title.

Right now West Indies is leading by 288 runs. Around 36 overs of play remain in this match and I guess West Indies will add another 70-80 runs in 15-16 overs and then make the declaration. It will give 20 overs for the West Indian bowlers today and in case they can take 2-3 wickets within that period then Sri Lanka is finished. Anyway, this is the last match of the tour. Sri Lanka deserved a consolation victory.
West Indies are now leading by 323 runs. I think it is enough target to beat Srilanka. They should declare the innings and give the Sri Lankan team a chance to bat. There are still about 27 overs left today. If they are not able to take at least 2 wickets today, then this match is going to be a draw.

Liverpool's main problem is that they can't maintain consistency in performance. Looking at their players it seems they are not familiar with each other. Moreover, they have been behind in the Premier League since the beginning of the season. Now their only hope is the Champions League. They will try their best to reach the final.
Let's see how that turns out for them, they will face Real Madrid in the coming weeks over two legs, are they going for revenge? this is going to be exciting and I'm looking forward to it.
I think it will be a one-sided match. One team will play well and the other team will be completely inactive. My own opinion. I think that could happen. But it is difficult to say which team will play better and win. Calm down and see what surprise is waiting for us!

Liverpool needs to win this match very much. Firstly they need to win because they are lagging far behind in the points table. I've never seen a title-winning team perform so badly the following season.
Did you watch how badly Chelsea performed in 2015 after winning the title the previous year? They almost got relegated luckily they got back and finished 15th position that year, the worse defending champions I've seen. Liverpool chances of making the top 4 is wide open I don't think Leicester would hold up till the last day.

Sorry I didn't see it. I was not very familiar with football then. Then I only watched the World Cup


Secondly, their match in the Champions League is against Real Madrid. If the Liverpool squad can't beat a team like Arsenal, how will they do well with Real Madrid?
Liverpool are in champions league great form, they lost to wolves in the league but won Leipzig home and away in champions league, does it mean Wolves > Leipzig?

My prediction Arsenal vs Liverpool will end in a draw, Liverpool need
to find their rhythm again.
I also think the match will be a draw. As a team, Liverpool is much stronger than Arsenal. But considering the recent performance, Arsenal will be ahead. Arsenal has lost just one of their last five matches. But Liverpool has lost 3 of the last 5 matches.

I think Liverpool will really try their best for getting a win in this tough match. They need it to find their rhythm and maintain a good form. But Arsenal also don't have a very good form recently. And they may even want to take revenge on Liverpool.

I think the best option here could be BTTS. For the ones who want to make a surprise bet, I think "draw" is a nice choice.

But I think Chelsea will get past them with a very solid performance. But I don't expect easy matches for both sides also.
I also think the same as you. Chelsea is still the favorite team in the match "Chelsea Vs Porto". Of course, Porto has done an amazing job so far, they even can beat Juventus. But it cannot guarantee they will eliminate Chelsea, because Chelsea has a different play of style. Beating Juventus doesn't mean to beat Chelsea as well, we cannot judge if Juventus is better than Chelsea. However, it is true that the match should be not easy for both Porto and Chelsea. But Chelsea should have a bigger chance to win with their solidity, their players' quality, and their experience in the Champions League competition.

Chelsea's match strategy is kinda different. And this round of the Champions League requires great match strategy and experience. I think Thomas Tuchel is experienced enough. He will lead the Chelsea team in the right direction. It will be very difficult for a team like Chelsea to beat Porto unless they play the whole 90 minutes carefully.

If Tuchel wasn't the manager now and Lampard was still the manager, I'd see Porto as more advantageous here. Because Chelsea were playing really bad then. But with Tuchel, the team are getting better and better. I haven't any doubt that he will want to do whatever is needed to even take their chances on the championship.
You're right, Tuchel will do his best to take Chelsea to the next round in the Champions League. At least he would like to defeat the Porto team. If he can beat Porto, they will play in the semi-finals against Real Madrid or Liverpool. This will not come as a surprise if Tuchel is able to take the Chelsea team to the final.

I bet on Denmark yesterday so I watched the game a bit, they look really impressive in these Qualifiers. Admittedly, they still did not play against a top opponent (they don't even have any in the group), but scoring 14 and not conceding in 3 games is still for every praise.

They had 2 away games (Israel and Austria) and have really impressed me in both. They were also really good against Croatia in the World cup, they look ready for a decent result. Maybe one of the dark horses?

You are in an accessible group. I believe he will go to the World Cup, but I think he will not go very far. Once you get a big team, you can fight, but you shouldn't win. Only with a lot of luck will it go far.
You have to admit that Denmark played very well. It is not easy to score 14 goals in 3 matches. Although their opponents were not very strong. But many strong teams, despite having a very strong squad, are not able to perform as expected against easy teams. An example of this is the Germany team. In yesterday's match, they lost 2-1.

The game vs Lille will be very hard for them for sure.  But after seeing their awesome performance vs Lyon away, I started thinking that they can defeat Lille too. It is also going to be in Parc des Princes which is another big advantage for PSG. Besides, they will most probably be more focused on the game compared to Lille. Because Lille got a shocking loss against Nimes 1-2 home. And they haven't been winning in the league for two matches. I'm favoring PSG in that game.
This match is going to be the main turning point of Ligue 1. Lille and Lyon have dominated the points table since the start of the season. But PSG is at the top of the table at the moment. If PSG can beat Lille, I would say no one can snatch the title from PSG this season. They beat Lyon 4-2 in the previous match. If we can see Mbappe's magic against Lille, then PSG can easily beat Lille team too.

It is definitely a very important game. There are only 8 weeks left for the end of the season and it will be a big advantage for the winner considering the championship chance. I must admit that Lille's job is really hard here. They are out-of-form because of the bad results they had lately. PSG got an incredible victory against Lyon the last. I also think that PSG will manage to beat Lille in this.
Lille have a golden opportunity to proof that they deserve the first place and they must at least get 1 point from this match...the pressure will be on psg players since they have no other choice than winning and i believe this match will be great

You are right about that it is also their chance to prove themselves. They will also want not to get away from PSG by losing here. The last head-to-head in the league ended 0-0 and both teams weren't good enough. But this time I'm sure that we will see a delightful and close game.
Lille has more chances to win this match. PSG will now mainly focus on the Champions League. Their next match in the Champions League is against Bayern Munich. Very strong opponent. I think that PSG will not play with their main squad against Lille. They can give rest to their main players. If any of their players get injured in this match, a good performance against Bayern will be difficult.

Liverpool wants this match badly to recoup and be on a good track but their defense has issues while on the other hand Arsenal is unstable despite their recent form.
Tough game to bet from the start, so maybe it will be better to see how the first half goes and then place a bet...

Both teams have the equal chances to win. Both Liverpool and Arsenal teams are unstable. There is no continuity of their performance. It is almost impossible to make predictions about this match. You are right, it would be wise to place bets based on the results of the first half.

After the elimination of Milan from the EL competition, of course Milan will be able to focus more for the end of the season in the top four. However I personally believe Milan will return to compete in the UCL competition next season, and there is no need to worry about Milan being inconsistent because so far Milan are still looking good at least to maintain their position in the top four. So for the next match against Sampdoria I'm just sure Milan will win whatever the situation, considering Sampdoria when playing away from 14 matches and Sampdoria taking 7 defeats and vice versa about Milan, that's a good record for Milan.

Milan also have a good chance to catch up with Inter for the championship. There is a 6-point gap and Inter have one missing match. If Inter start struggling and Milan use that chance very well, things could change suddenly.

But like many people, I'm also aware of that Milan's job is very hard on this.
If Inter Milan does not lose form, then no matter what statistics you show, Inter Milan will win the title. AC Milan is just 6 points behind. And they have played more than 1 match than Inter Milan. If Inter Milan loses 3 matches, then AC Milan may touch Inter Milan in the points table. But AC Milan has to win all the matches. Inter Milan will play 11 more matches, I think they can lose in highest 2 matches.

Turkey had unlucky draw with Latvia although I don't think much will change in group later. Turkey still seems the best performing team in group, scored many goals. I think Montenegro will be key to victory here in this group. Norway seems to beat by just 1 goal, Turkey may have hard time as well.
I still expect this group to be leaded by Netherlands and Turkey without surprise.
Turkey's defenders played very badly in this match. Teams like Latvia scored 3 goals against them. I never expected this result. Moreover, Turkey's goalkeeper did not perform well. Turkey needs an experienced goalkeeper. If they play with such a weak goalkeeper in the World Cup, they will not be able to win a single match.

If this year is Porto eliminates Chelsea, Porto will go to the final.It would be a surprising result.I remembered that Greece won the european championship.They chances were low in Euro 2004, but Greece became the champion.Porto could win UCL this year.They should have good luck sure.
I do believe that Porto came to the end of the road here. The reality is that Juventus is not doing as great as they did in the Serie A neither, they are not doing that well, which is why I do understand them losing on champions league as well. But Chelsea is a well oiled machine and they are working great. They are doing good on premier league as well and fighting for champions league too, which is all great if you ask me.

A battle between these two should be going to Chelsea for sure, it looks more possible. Of course there is a chance, of course Porto may win, it is football and more unlikely stuff has happened in football before, but beating Juventus and beating Chelsea is not the same, if you can beat Juventus you are a good team, if you beat Chelsea you are a great team. Sometimes unexpected teams beat some big names, remember Ajax few years back? That could be Porto but I do not think that will happen.
It will most likely be as you said in this match.Nevertheless, football is a sport that is open to all results.Porto fans are grateful to their team for eliminating juventus.

Porto;  Even if he is eliminated against Chelsea, they should be proud that he even got to this stage.This will be the match I am most curious about.

Even though all teams have chances but this time, big name teams don't always have consistent performance and it has been proven that Porto can beat Juventus. Juventus and Chelsea in this opportunity are clearly very different and the changes that occur at least we can see from their struggles in the local league, with a change in Chelsea's very good performance, I personally have no doubt for this team even it looks like Chelsea can advance to the final. The results are open, but at least there are differences that make it possible to know the results before the game starts, right.
I think all the matches in this round of the Champions League are completely unpredictable. It is very difficult to predict which team will win. All teams are good. All the teams have very skilled and experienced players. Anything can happen in matches. Calm down and watch the match.

Portugal will play against Luxembourg today. Portugal failed to perform as expected against Serbia in the previous match. It seems Ronaldo is not in form. He performed very poorly. Hopefully today Ronaldo will return to form and Ronaldo will be the man of the match.
Serbia is a strong team that is not easy to beat, even for Potugalia. Today they will have an easier opponent, Luxembourg even beat Ireland in the previous match, but I don’t think he will be able to defeat Portugal today, this is an opponent of a completely different level.
Yeah, Serbia was a strong opponent. But they don't have as many skilled players as Portugal. You have to admit that Portugal played badly in this match and Ronaldo was completely inactive in this match. Luxembourg is not a strong opponent for a team like Portugal. Hopefully Portugal will win easily.

You cant be serious to compare every player with the same level of fitness. Messi, Ronaldo and Ibra are still a beast but it doesnt mean every other player at the same age would still perform at their best performance. Also regarding EPL's striker, top pure striker right now is Harry Kane wether you likes it or not.

The fitness of each player is completely different. And fitness has nothing to do with body structure. Kane's wash is only 267. His fitness is phenomenal. But it remains to be seen how long he will be able to maintain such extraordinary fitness.

Government can ban it but they can't stop their people to use Bitcoin. Recently china govt tried to ban mining and uses of bitcoin but they failed badly. Indian govt and Nigeria attempted to regulate cryptocurrency and tried to stop their people to trade crypto via Bank account, But they did not succeed and has finally been forced to give legitimacy to bitcoin transactions. So, govt can ban crypto but It will not be good for them.

So much has been said about the Chelsea Vs Porto... My opinion tho, Porto is gonna school Chelsea regardless I wanna see an interesting game from both side.
You can place your bet and win x4.2 if Porto wins 😉
Chelsea isn't top this season yet it improved a lot since Tuchel has come. I doubt Porto could sack another team in CL.

I would even say that this season is a failure for Chelsea. I wish they could do better. I think they will be able to go on, but not without problems. Although you know that Porto wins the Champions League once in 17 years. It was in 1987 and in 2004. Now it's been 17 years since the last victory. So maybe they can win. But in those years Porto was a much stronger team than now.
Porto is not the strongest team to win the Champions League title. Strong teams like Manchester City, Bayern Munich, PSG are here. Who are now in extraordinary form. But Porto is a strong enough team to beat Chelsea. If Chelsea makes any mistake in the match, they will be defeated. Although the match will be very competitive as I think both teams are almost equally strong.
Nothing is impossible. If Porto is able to beat Chelsea and reach the semi-final then I believe so they will be able to go to the final. Because they could face Real Madrid or Liverpool in the semi-final. And both teams are not in very good form now.

I'm watching Kazakhstan - France and while the French are dominating and leading the game by two goals I can say this is the most un-entertaining game I've witnessed recently. France's supremacy is there but they are not pushing the throttle too much.
In fact, most of the games are so boring.
France has a lot of talented star players. They are already two goals ahead against Kazakhstan. And no doubt they will win today's match. Yet I am not satisfied with their performance. They should play more aggressively against smaller teams.

When we look at the French players, there are many talented names.They have good players like Mbappe, Griezmann, Dembele.They beat Kazakhstan 2-0.  I was expecting a different result.They should have gotten a sensational win.France is one of the best in the world in football.
Yeah, I expected different results too. Despite having so many star players in the team, France is performing like an average-level team. Every player from the French defense to the forward is very skilled and experienced. They play in the most expensive clubs in the world. So our expectations from them are a bit higher.
