The top clubs will always comes for important players. PSG will never abandon the core race of producing significant income for the club's development. PSG will become much more competitive and tactical once Victor Osimhen joins the team. PSG expresses interest in Napoli's most important player, a risk Aurelio De Laurentiis is unwilling to take. He is more concerned with enhancing the performance of the team and any other projects. Victor Osimhen has emerged as Napoli's primary striker in recent seasons, and he has not shied away from his responsibilities but focused on building the main player.
I'm not convinced that Victor Osimhen will make PSG untouchable, especially in the Champions League. Osimhen is talented, but PSG's problems go beyond a prolific scorer. They possessed world-class players but lost when it mattered. It's like installing a luxury engine in a car with a damaged steering wheel. You can have all the power in the world but not win races without steering. PSG should first address internal concerns. Putting more money at players without fixing the cause is like taping a leaky faucet. It may work temporarily, but not permanently

Also, Napoli's dynamic. They need Osimhen, so losing him would be devastating. Keeping Osimhen in a team that doesn't match his goals could be a career mistake. A tough scenario. You desire loyalty, but you also need to plan forward. Maybe adding Osimhen could be the missing component if PSG can fix their internal issues
Mbappe has better individual qualities than Osimhen, it is clear that recruiting Osimhen is a requirement of the situation where Mbappe plans to leave at the end of the season. Of course, Osimhen arrival does not automatically increase PSG's bargaining value in the Champions League, PSG management must overhaul their squad so they can have a winning mentality in European competitions.

On the other hand, PSG must use its financial strength well, building a long term squad to become a team challenging for the Champions League trophy. PSG management must work harder to build a team that not only appears dominant in Ligue 1, but a team that is able to compete in the Champions League competition.

Mbappe departure at the end of the season should be used as a valuable lesson, where the main reason for Mbappe departure was because PSG failed to win the Champions League trophy. If PSG management does not change the way they recruit players and build the squad, PSG will always have difficulty realizing its ambitions.

For Bayern, this only means that they have regained confidence in the strength, or perhaps it means that the conflict with Tuchel within the team has been resolved and now Bayern is ready to show their strength. But the point is that Bayern will no longer be champions, no matter how large the score they beat their rivals, they lost too many points, and Bayer managed to take advantage of this and increase their lead.
Bayern big win over Mainz did not change their fate for the better, meaning Bayern chances of winning a trophy this season remain difficult if Leverkusen continues to be consistent. It must be admitted that this big victory gave Tuchel fleet confidence, and was a signal for all their future potential opponents to remain careful.

I predict Leverkusen will be able to create an unbeaten record throughout the season, because so far they are still quite strong and no team has been able to beat them in every competition. Bayern's dominance has the opportunity to be completely broken by Leverkusen, where Leverkusen will always be a nightmare in every beautiful story that Bayern has.

Leverkusen will host Wolfsburg in the closing match this week, maybe they will score a big win too, I predict Xabi fleet will not draw at BayArena. If Leverkusen continues undefeated, Bayern will continue to be under pressure, and the point gap that has currently formed will not be able to be reduced.

The narrow win over Bologna as an away match was an important victory for the Nerazzurri to get further away from Juventus and AC Milan.
The importance of winning against Bologna by just 1 goal is because Thiago Motta's team had previously never lost in four consecutive matches.
Bologna lost to Inter Milan and it gives AS Roma a chance to reduce difference with Bologna to only one point. However Roma will have a tough match today against Fiorentina and they will be hosted by Fiorentina. It will be a difficult match and challenging task for Roma to beat Fiorentina but with their latest performances in Serie A and a latest big win against Brighton in Europa League, Roma will begin this match in Florence with high ambition and confidence.

Roma will not easily get three points from Fiorentina but I believe by some ways, eventually Roma will go home with three points and move closer to Bologna.
In the 11 matches that De Rossi has managed, Roma have only suffered one defeat, namely against Inter, a defeat which I think is understandable because Inzaghi fleet is much stronger than them. In the other 10 matches, Roma was unbeaten, Monza and Brighton were beaten by 4 goals, Roma front line is now looking sharp and De Rossi has succeeded in bringing out the best potential from Lukaku and Dybala.

Regarding the away match against Fiorentina, I predict Roma will succeed in stealing 3 points again and continue their positive trend. De Rossi certainly doesn't want to waste the opportunity to break into the top four of the standings, Bologna defeat to Inter gives them the opportunity to cut the difference to 1 point.

The course of the match will certainly not be easy for Roma, because Fiorentina also has the ambition to finish in the Europa League zone. If you look at the statistics, Roma deserves to be the favorite even though they act as the visiting team. This doesn't mean underestimating Fiorentina chances, of course it doesn't rule out the possibility that Fiorentina can beat Roma, and it could be that the two of them draw. Although before the match started Roma were favored to win, Fiorentina has the potential to become a stumbling block for De Rossi efforts to penetrate the Champions League zone.

I think Atletico Madrid is too focused on the second leg match against Inter Milan in the middle of the week so they get bad results in the continued La Liga match against Cadiz, this is an unexpected result and even a big surprise when Atletico Madrid was unable to score a single goal against Cadiz. .

In the last 5 matches Atletico Madrid only won 1 win, indeed Atletico Madrid's performance is quite declining but that doesn't mean they can be underestimated in the second leg of the UCL, they are only 1 goal behind and they will play at home, of course everything the possibility is still possible for it to happen.

I think the most detrimental thing about Atletico Madrid's defeat is that their points distance from 5th place is so close now that they are not safe enough to finish in top 4 position.
ATM is in a bad period, the defeat to Cadiz being one of their worst performances of the season. Sure enough, ATM defeat to Cadiz was a big surprise, because we know that Cadiz is a mediocre club, and the strength they have is very different from ATM in many aspects. Cadiz is motivated to get out of the degradation zone, so they can overthrow ATM by making good use of home matches and fan support.

ATM position is now threatened by Bilbao, if today Bilbao gets full points when they visit Las Palmas, then the difference in points with ATM will be 2. Bilbao efforts to penetrate the Champions League zone cannot be underestimated, because if ATM still often loses points they have the potential to knocked out of the top four. The number of matches is getting smaller, Simeone must find a solution to break their bad trend.

On the other hand, I predict that ATM chances of beating Inter are very low, because Inzaghi fleet has appeared very consistent this season. ATM needs great luck to turn things around and catch up on the goal deficit, because on paper Inter will most likely beat them again in second Leg.

Carlo Ancelotti has admitted that he got his tactics wrong for Real Madrid's 1-1 draw with RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League round of 16.
Finally, Ancellotti has spoken about the draw from Madrid vs. Leipzig. He admitted that his team used the wrong tactic against Leipzig, and it's strongly influenced the result of the game. Real Madrid was unable to explore even more during the game. The good thing is that Vini was able to give the solution to score one additional goal against Leipzig, which helped the club a lot in qualifying for the next round. It's caused by a human error from ancellotti itself and glad to hear that if he was not even making excuses from the bad result against leipzig.
I think this mistake is understandable, because not all experiments sometimes run perfectly and Ancelotti is great at admitting his mistakes. Ancelotti is trying to vary the lineup, to see how good one or two players are in different positions like Valvarde. The draw was not bad, and it was proven that Los Blancos had succeeded in qualifying for the quarter finals.

If we look at Madrid starting XI when facing Leipzig, Ancelotti really experimented and took huge risks. Ancelotti only fielded the only striker, namely Vinicius, and we know Valvarde was on the right wing and Bellingham was placed as a false nine. A decision that not all coaches dare to make, unless they believe that their players can carry out different tasks well.

I see that Ancelotti decision is aimed at rotating his players, anticipating player fatigue and minimizing the risk of injury. Because Madrid has a busy match schedule, Ancelotti is certainly not joking with his choice. As an experienced coach, Ancelotti can certainly see the potential of his players well, such as placing Tchouameni as a central defender when Los Blancos had a defensive crisis.

It is difficult to make predictions about the match between these two strong teams today even though the match takes place at Liverpool's home ground. Because Manchester City still has the potential to win and also often wins at home to its opponents, Liverpool must have an unusual way of fighting Manchester City in today's match. I see their match today as a decider even though there are still ten matches left for all teams this season, but these two strong candidates will continue to strive to be the best because they both have the potential to win trophies this season.
Manchester City always gets the title of superior because their current strength seems difficult to match. Liverpool is actually quite strong, but currently the team's condition is being disturbed with several of its mainstay players injured. Klopp will certainly devise a different strategy to reduce attacks from opponents, especially as this is a very crucial match. The Reds players will certainly be very motivated, especially when playing at Anfield, the direct support of the fans will add an injection of morale to the Kops troops to force City to go home empty-handed.
It is possible that the match will end in a draw considering that both teams do not want to lose points, on paper City has a slightly higher chance of winning the match even though Liverpool is acting as hosts at Anfield. Klopp has to make use of the available players because several of his key players are injured, fortunately Salah is back and is likely to be included in the lineup.

Pep fleet visited with a complete squad, where players such as Foden were in their best performance. Apart from that, the presence of De Bruyne and Halaand is a real threat to Van Dijk and his team, Klopp must develop a strategy to stem the movement of these two players if he wants to win.

The impact of losing points in this important match is quite big, because it has a direct impact on their position at the top of the standings and their chances of winning a trophy. Also, the presence of Arsenal, who currently occupies the top position in the points table, adds to the fierce competition, Arteta certainly doesn't want to repeat mistakes like last season.

Leverkusen yes, but I don't see Roma being on the same level. In my opinion Roma is not even close. They improved their game lately, but there is still a huge gap when you compare them to Liverpool. But I think we will get to see a nice test when Liverpool now plays against Manchester City. That's the toughest test a team can have.

However, I think in a final everything is possible. If Roma can manage to make it into the final, then I wouldn't assume that they are without chances. Playing a final is always different from playing league games.
In the European League, some teams can show different performances than in their domestic league, that's why we see surprises more often in this competition. I agree with you, even though Roma have experienced an increase in performance, they are not yet on par with Leverkusen and Liverpool, even though they were finalists last season and are now starting to appear impressive.

Liverpool are in a safe position to continue the second leg match, because their margin of victory is quite large, while Leverkusen have to try a little harder to win after being held to a draw by Qarabag. These two teams deserve to be favorites, and Liverpool will again shift their focus to the Bigmatch against Man City in the EPL.

On the other hand, I still hope Milan can do something impressive in the Europa League, even though we know they are not as consistent as Liverpool or Leverkusen. At least the European League will become more fierce if Milan becomes one of the teams challenging for the title. Even though he is also in a safe position, Pioli must be able to improve his fleet defense so that they don't concede easily in the next match.
368  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 09, 2024, 11:38:23 PM


PSG is going to face Reims in the next match at Princes Park. I think this should be easy for PSG on their home ground. Even though PSG has not been able to win the last two matches in domestic competition, this one should not be much of a challenge for PSG. We all know that the biggest challenge for PSG is actually the Champions League. And in Ligue 1 They are ahead by quite a lot of points. So even if they drop points or lose, which I do not expect them to do, I believe they are still going to be okay. But at the same time looking at the current form of Reims(L-W-D-L-L) I do not think it is going to be anything other than a win for PSG.
With the quality of players owned and by playing at home, it is very natural that PSG will be the favorite in this match, especially with Reims' game declining in the last few matches and unable to maintain consistency well, I really think this could be an easy match for PSG.

It's just that in this match PSG also must not falter and underestimate Reims because they can also be very troublesome, especially the two Reims wingers whose movements are quite fast they must be aware of Ito and Daramy are still quite troublesome players so PSG cannot underestimate this match because even though they are favorites, Reims with the fast counter-attacks they always do can trouble PSG in the end.
Even though in the last two matches PSG had difficulty winning, I think the match against Reims can be easy. To be honest, this match is easy to predict, because the difference in strength between the two teams is clear, where PSG is very dominant and Reims is not an equal opponent. On paper, betting on PSG winning is quite safe without needing much consideration, because I don't think Reims will make PSG lose at the Parc des Princes. The previous victory over Sociedad could motivate Enrique's fleet to win today.

On the other hand, even though PSG played again to a draw, their position is still quite safe at the top of the standings. Currently they have a 9 point difference with Brest, where if they succeed in beating Reims again the difference will increase to 12 points. Like the previous season, this season PSG was able to win the Ligue 1 championship trophy again. However, the ease of competition in Ligue 1 made it difficult for them to compete in the Champions League.
369  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 09, 2024, 11:19:48 PM

if his contract expires in 2025 if he doesn't hurry up to be extended it will be difficult. because if the contract time is almost finished, enthusiasts will quickly offer attractive salary and contract facilities. just like Mbappe who will leave on a free transfer at the start of next season to Real Madrid. besides PSG, many English league clubs are interested. if it's a free transfer, Barcelona will definitely be interested too.

PSG could be a good option for Osimhen although I am not a fan of Ligue 1. But he will certainly be paid a huge salary.

Though Mbappe leaving the club will make the club far less attractive for other players and for fans in general. These days it is still fun to watch PSG play exactly because of Mbappe. The goals he scored in the Champions League were once more unbelievable. His speed is impressive, his quick movements and finishes.

Osimhen is not on the same level, but he would be good enough to win the Ligue 1 title.
Speculation about Osimhen future is increasingly emerging, rumors of interest from several elite European clubs in the Napoli striker are very genuine, he is one of the best strikers at the moment. PSG, Man United, Chelsea and Arsenal are reportedly interested in recruiting him, but there has been no official news so far. Joining a Premier League club will certainly make him more famous than moving to PSG.

On the other hand, joining PSG is also not a bad choice, as we have seen PSG win the Ligue 1 trophy almost every season, Osimhen can experience this domestic trophy every season while being the top scorer there. Mbappe departure leaves a hole that needs to be filled, Enrique certainly needs a proven striker to replace Mbappe, and Osimhen is the right player.

However, it is possible that Osimhen will remain loyal to Napoli and will choose to stay next season. The competition to get Osimhen signature is certainly very tough, especially if the club does not dare to spend a large amount of money to buy him from Napoli. I think only PSG and Chelsea will not hesitate to spend large amounts of money.

I hope that doesn't happen if Inter Milan gets the Champions League title this season, because Man City and Real Madrid also perform consistently, what's more, Man City as the defending champion will definitely look crazy this season, even though Inter Milan is in good condition in Serie A However, we cannot equate the Champions League with the domestic league because the strength in the domestic league is not the same as the Champions League, the Champions League is very tough and even the clubs that are in the current position have choices so there are still many clubs that must be watched out for, not only Just Inter Milan.
All the remaining teams are the best teams in Europe at the moment who have almost the same quality, so of course I don't think only Inter Milan is strong but all the teams.
Manchester City do have the same strength as last season, but defending the Champions League title is not easy so I don't really favor them.
At the moment it is too early for us to talk about winning the Champion League title this season, there is still a very long way to go.
There are only two teams playing in the final and there are still two rounds left to reach it, all teams have the same chance, Madrid and City deserve to be favourites. The round of 16 is not yet completely finished, there are 4 other matches that must be played by the 8 contestants, I predict that Barcelona, Arsenal, Dortmund and Inter will qualify for the quarter finals, of course I could be completely wrong.

Regarding City, I see that Pep Guardiola fleet is still strong enough to defend the trophy. From the group phase to qualifying for the quarter-finals, City managed to sweep the match clean with a win, I think that is proof that they are still a strong candidate. That right, it's not easy to do this, because in the Champions League all teams can create surprises.

Similar to City, Inter still has the same strength as last season, in fact I see them being stronger this season. Inzaghi fleet maybe could advance to the final round again even though they are not favorites. Apart from that, we really have to be patient to see who will win the trophy this season, and let see first which teams qualify for the quarter finals.

It is clear, that Bayern Munich has lost the chance to win the Bundesliga trophy this season because after all, Bayer Leverkusen is really very good at maintaining its unbeaten trend this season. Therefore, it is appropriate for Bayern Munich to be able to focus more on the Champion League in order to have a good chance of getting the trophy. But still, I think, although Bayern Munich will focus more on the Champions League, but to get the Champions League trophy will certainly never be easy. But of course, it would be great if Bayern Munich really managed to win the Champions League trophy this season because after all, Kane became a very good goal machine for Bayern Munich in his first season with Bayern Munich. So yes, if Bayern Munich can really maximize Kane's great potential at this moment, then at least Bayern Munich's chance in the Champions League is still available.
Bayern chances in the Champions League are still very open, while in the Bundesliga they can only hope that Leverkusen loses balance, which most likely will not happen. Leverkusen is still very consistent in winning in the Bundesliga, and is still able to maintain an unbeaten record for 24 matches.

It's true, Bayern priority scale is now completely on the Champions League, because that's where their opportunity to win a trophy this season is still available. If you look at the ranking of favorite teams this season, Bayern still has hope to talk a lot even though Madrid and City are more favorites. Kane presence on the front line can increase their bargaining value, I think all teams are still considering Bayern in the Champions League.

It must be admitted that the challenge to win the Champions League trophy is very difficult, Tuchel might be able to take his fleet to the final even though now they are no longer on par with Madrid and City. Let's look again at who will be Bayern opponents in the next quarter finals, if they meet Madrid or City, it is likely that Bayern will be eliminated.

Napoli dominated the game from the beginning to the end, Napoli did not win. I was really surprised that Napoli was unable to stop Torino from equalizing in three minutes after they had taken the lead. Given that Torino has just two short on target, while Napoli has eight. Napoli has a greater chance of winning the match. Even though Torino is now ranked tenth in the league, I was not expecting the game to end in a draw because Napoli need the three points to move ahead of Atlanta. I am really disappointed with the outcome. Since Napoli is already losing an important points, I don't think they will finish in the top four this season to qualify for the next Champions League.

After Napoli's recent victory over Juventus, I thought it will be easy to beat Torino at home. In their last three games, Torino has not won any of them, and their goal differential is zero. Napoli's current play this season will not get them anywhere; they have a new coach, so we expect their strength to be greater than this. Since all of the players are fit to play, they should have no problem in winning their games.
Napoli wasted the opportunity to move up the rankings again, the match against Torino should have been easy, because previously they played well when they met Juventus. Maybe Napoli cannot be completely trusted this season, betting on their victory is quite risky and requires a lot of consideration.

Playing with his best squad, in front of his own supporters, and again failing to get closer to the top four. 8 draws and 8 defeats in 28 matches, personally I think Napoli will miss the Champions League next season. It has been very difficult to finish in the top four, with inconsistent performance.

On the other hand, this is a big opportunity for Napoli to overtake Atalanta, where Atalanta will face Juventus tomorrow. I predicted Atalanta would lose points, but unfortunately Napoli failed to take advantage of the opportunity even though they did not lose to Torino. As defending champions, Napoli should be able to finish in the top four of the standings.

Girona have really dropped points in the last couple of matches they've played.I thought they were going to be the only team that will give Madrid tough time this season,but it is surprising to see Barcleona top them,even if it's temporarily,but how sure are we that Girona will even win Osasuna? because with the recent poor performance,that is not guaranteed at all,and if they do not win this game,it will really be bad for them
I won't be surprised if they end up being at fourth position,even behind  Athletico Madrid.This will show that all they wanted was to qualify for either Europa league or the Champions league,they weren't really fighting for the tittle.
I still believe that Girona can return to consistency in the remaining matches in the future, the match against Osasuna is very important because it can bring them back to the runnerup position and displace Barcelona to third place. Acting as host can increase the confidence and mentality of the players, the fans will of course provide full support.

Luckily for Girona because ATM today suffered a surprising defeat to Cadiz, so the two still have a difference of 4 points, where if Girona managed to get an additional 3 points then the difference would be 7. Although there is no guarantee that they can secure 3 points, based on their reputation so far, Girona deserves to be the favorite to win over Osasuna in today's match.

Tickets to the Champions League are Girona biggest ambition this season, overtaking Madrid at the top of the standings is very difficult. Just finishing in the top four is enough for Girona, especially if they can finish in second place by beating Barcelona and ATM in points when the season ends. The lineup has been confirmed, in a moment we will see whether Girona is able to win.

Garnacho was great for Manchester United against Everton, and his efforts helped Manchester United beat Everton. With this 2-0 win against Everton, Manchester United are back to winning ways after losing to Fulham and Manchester City in the Premier League. The absence of Rasmus Højlund in the Manchester United squad caused Manchester United to miss so many chances against Everton. 
At least the losing run has been broken, even though it's against a weaker opposition, because they really need to win this game,  especially for their quest to qualify for Europe most prestigious competition, the uefa champions league.

I wouldn't say the performance of Manchester united today was that good because their wastefulness in front of goal would have cost them the game if it was a stronger opposition, but kudos to them anyway, for getting their desired result.
Regardless of the course of the match, the additional 3 points from today kept Ten Hag out of the pressure. Regarding United chances of breaking into the Champions League zone, in my opinion it is very difficult, because even if they continue to be consistent, it is not certain that Tottenham and Aston Villa will decline in the future. Finishing in the Europa League zone looks realistic for United, only a miracle can help United appear in the Champions League next season.

Regarding Everton performance, Sean Dyche fleet is indeed in a bad period, but for now their position is slightly safe from the degradation zone. In fact, if Everton did not receive a points deduction, they would currently be ranked 12th, one level below Chelsea. Everton future efforts are to maintain its position so as not to be degradation.

With 9 more matches remaining, I doubt United can secure full points in all of these matches. There are at least several tough matches that United will have to play in the future, where Ten Hag fleet will have to face Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal. Ten Hag must manage its players well, so as not to lose the opportunity to play in the European League.

If Napoli effort has come sooner, it would have been better but to me, what they are doing now is like trying to move a truck that has been abandoned in the forest but some how it has been brought back to life but some things had been damaged in the truck. That's the only scenario I can picture from this their performance because despite all of these, they are right below Atlanta in number 7 places on the table. Their dream of next year Champions League is buried for now maybe next year.

How many points are they away from Torino that makes you think Napoli are better than Torino, the Atlanta team are even ahead of them in the table which means that if Napoli want to be consider a place in the Europa League, they need to have atleast 3 wins to make that place which after they have to continue to win their games otherwise they are not going for any important league than Seria A next season.
The only way for Napoli to appear in European competition next season is to win in the remaining matches this season, if they still lose points then it will just be a daydream. The arrival of Calzona as the new manager seems to have given Napoli an injection of enthusiasm, because so far they have managed to appear unbeaten, even though they have drawn in several matches.

Napoli most realistic chance may be to finish in the Europa League zone, while hoping if several teams currently occupying that position stumble and lose points, and they continue to be consistent without losing or drawing. Napoli victory over Juventus may have been too late to fix the situation instantly, but who knows, they will be lucky when the end of the season approaches.

Next Napoli will face Torino, I think it is an easy match to win, and they can continue their positive trend so they have the opportunity to get closer to the European zone. The dynamics of competition in the race for tickets to the Champions League are now more interesting, because Inter are already running alone at the top of the standings in the hunt for the Scudetto.

Bayern Munich is already 10 points behind Leverkusen so in this case of course Bayern munich fans are starting to worry that their team will fail to win the Bundesliga trophy this season. So, in my opinion, that will definitely happen because Leverkusen have been so consistent this season, especially since there are not too many remaining games this season, so they will take advantage of every match to win. Bayern munich started to lose their instability in the Bundesliga and this was their big mistake in the second half of the season.

Bayern munich dominance will definitely be broken and that will make the Bundesliga even more interesting next season. However, if Xabi alonso leaves for another team, I think Bayern munich will dominate the Bundesliga again because this season Leverkusen level of progress is only due to their coach who is genius enough to organize tactics to continue win.
Xabi is a key factor in Leverkusen success at topping the standings so far, creating a consistency that is unstoppable even by Bayern. They deservedly won the championship, after impressing all season, and that doesn't mean Bayern were completely bad. The competitive level of the Bundesliga is increasing, unfortunately Dortmund this season has also experienced a setback.

A tough challenge for Leverkusen in the future is to face Dortmund, but I still believe Leverkusen can beat Edin Terzic fleet. There is no team that has been able to act as a stumbling block to Leverkusen progress so far, in my opinion the 10 point difference with Bayern is a bit impossible to catch in the remaining matches ahead.

Speculation about Xabi future is increasingly being discussed, but I feel it is more important now to see Xabi succeed with Leverkusen first, where Bayern record in the last decade can be broken. Xabi will leave sooner or later, and that cannot be denied, but before he leaves he will disappoint all Bayern fans this season.

Do you guys think that Aston Villa will be able to recover after the lack cluster performance that they had a little while ago?

What I understand is that the coach is really good and he has done really well to bring any great results. But when you don't have the best squad, you are only going to be able to do so much before you start having problems. But I still think they are performing pretty well. And they have shown great improvements. Even if they can finish in the top four, ahead of Tottenham, it is still going to be a big achievement for them in my opinion.
Without doubt for sure, that would be a very big massive achievement for Aston villa because that would automatically mean champions league football for them next season but it's not going to be easy because the fight for that top four is like the gladiator showdown and only the strong survive so that last performance shouldn't be something that will give them cause to flop because if they for one minute lay low another hungrier team will gladly take their place in the top four slot.
The challenge faced by Aston Villa in maintaining its position in the top four of the standings is quite tough, because in the remaining 10 matches Aston Villa will have to face several elite teams and teams challenging for the title such as Tottenham, City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool. These five teams have the potential to derail Aston Villa steps to secure tickets to appear in the Champions League next season.

Unai Emery will certainly try his best to maintain his team level of play, fortunately they currently have a 5 point difference with Tottenham as their closest competitor. However, next week Tottenham will visit to reduce the points gap that has formed, a match that will be played with high intensity.

In the last three meetings between the two teams, Aston Villa managed to finish the match with a win, it is very likely that next week Emery fleet will win again. On paper, Aston Villa has a slightly higher winning percentage than Tottenham, apart from that, Aston Villa is lucky because they will act as hosts. Ange efforts to get his fleet to qualify for the Champions League face a tough test.

I had thought and predicted that Real Madrid will easily win against Leipzig of the German side, but in reality it was not an easy task for Real Madrid even if the letter qualified. Leipzig showed perseverance and we are very much lady to qualify if not that there is some kind of favor that follows Real Madrid whenever it is about the Champions League. But one lesson I have learned from that match is that Real Madrid is not that invincible has been thought by many. It seems that the team of Guardiola is much better and set to win this champions league than Real Madrid. The next round of the Champions League will be much more interesting than what we have seen in this very round.
Madrid so far has not suffered a single defeat in the Champions League, a draw against Leipzig does not necessarily put City much better than Los Blancos. There are still three more rounds that need to be passed by each contestant, currently we are waiting for four more teams to qualify for the quarter finals first. It's still too early to guess who deserves to be champion and who will be eliminated, it could be that both of them were eliminated early although many people favored both of them.

It seems that Bayern and PSG also have good bargaining power to win the UCL trophy this season, even though they are not on a par with City and Madrid. Now we wait for the other four round of 16 matches to finish, to see who will accompany City, Madrid, Bayern and PSG in the draw and we will consider their chances in the quarter finals again. Apart from all that, we cannot ignore the potential of a surprise team, like Inter last season.

The journey to winning the UCL trophy is not easy to predict, and judging from the perspective of ambition, Bayern is a club that any team should be wary of. It is quite reasonable because Tuchel fleet has lost the opportunity to win trophies in domestic competitions, but all assumptions can be broken and can be wrong because there is no guarantee that a team will not experience ups and downs in performance.

Luckily for Madrid after they only got 1 point Girona lost and Bacelona drew. They still have a considerable points gap from Girona. As for Barcelona, injuries to several key players have weakened them. One of them is Pedri. Xavi seems to be getting happy because Pedri can play against Atlhtic Club but Xavi must also be sad because Pedri and De Jong are injured again. Xavi can't do much this winter transfer season. Because of their poor financial condition.
Real Madrid benefited from the unsatisfactory results achieved by Girona and Barcelona so that the final results at Valencia headquarters did not really affect the results they achieved. The rather large difference in points is still maintained, Real Madrid is still safe at the top of the standings. Barcelona who began to find the best form of the game, had to re -accept the bitter reality due to the injury suffered by its flagship players, the injury suffered by Pedri and De Jong will make Xavi have to make changes to maintain the stability of Barcelona game. Without the presence of Pedri and De Jong will slightly affect Barcelona appearance because these two players play an important role in maintaining the rhythm of the game and they are also very often the creators of attacks.
In the last five matches, Los Blancos lost 6 points as a result of 3 draws, a warning signal for Ancelotti in his efforts to lead his team to win the La Liga trophy at the end of the season. Luckily the next two matches won't be too much trouble, considering that the opponents they will face are average clubs.

Bellingham will miss two matches due to receiving a red card in the match against Valencia, I don't think it will have a big impact on their performance because Ancelotti has several options in that position, and the opponent is also fairly easy. However, if they are again unstable in winning in these two matches, then Girona and Barcelona can compete again for the trophy.

Girona and Barcelona failure to secure full points last week certainly brought good luck to Madrid. There are 10 remaining La Liga matches, where if Los Blancos lose a lot of points then Girona and Barcelona will continue to press and close the gap. There are no excessive concerns about Madrid performance in the future, but the competitive tension will continue to increase towards the end of the season, Ancelotti must experiment again to avoid more draws in the future.

Well, we will find out the results when this sport is held, especially how these two teams play the match. even though on paper Real Madrid is far superior to RB Leipzig, in football it is unique. in 90 minutes of normal time, we will see how these two teams fight. however, we agree that on paper Real Madrid is far superior to Marco Rose's squad. there is quite a difference based on the odds available, Madrid with @1.53 and RB Leipzig with @5.40. moreover, this match was held at the Santiago Bernabeu. playing in front of its own supporters, it looks like Real Madrid will not play the same as in the first leg. which means, Real Madrid will most likely dominate the match. Well, we'll see if RB Leipzig will surprise us, this is very interesting.

At the same time, the match between Manchester City vs FC Copenhagen was also held at the same time. Playing at the Etihad Stadium, City looks like it will be easy to overthrow their opposing team. Moreover, City is ahead by an aggregate of 2 goals. It could be that City will play by saving energy. Or, Haaland will be hunting to score as many goals as he can to match Harry Kane and Mbappe's goals. however, referring to the available odds, City is much more favored with odds @1.15 and Copenhagen with @18.00. well, in the next few hours we will watch the battles of the teams we mentioned in this post. so, let's wait.
The end of the match can be easily predicted, the two leading teams own a goal deficit and hosting their opponents at their home ground, it seems that there will be no surprises in these two matches. Leipzig and Copenhagen will be goalscoring grounds for the two home teams, a good opportunity to become the top scorer.

Ancelotti doesn't seem to be taking too big a risk, he will still field his best squad, to avoid a draw. Meanwhile, City is certainly more comfortable than Madrid, because Pep fleet has a bigger goal deficit, and it is likely that Pep will rotate a number of his key players. Both coaches certainly hope to avoid player injuries and card accumulation, by not taking their guests lightly.

Madrid and City are two teams that are considered to have the potential to advance to the final round this season, Bayern also cannot be ignored even though Tuchel fleet is experiencing a difficult period in the Bundesliga. Apart from all that, Bayern and PSG have guaranteed themselves to qualify for the quarter-finals, just waiting for Madrid and City to qualify today.
