As far as I remember, it seems that last season Galatasaray had a difficult time because they were threatened with relegation. But it seems that Galatasaray managed to overcome the problems they experienced last season, because in this season Galatasaray managed to become the top of the standings and also, Galatasaray is the team that has lost the least so far this season.
For me personally, this kind of improvement is something of a surprise because it is part of a big change that Galatasaray has managed to make. Also for the next match, I'm sure Galatasaray will still win in the match against Adana Demirspor. It doesn't matter that Adana Demirspor is in fourth place at this moment, because I'm sure that this season Galatasaray does have a chance to win the title after their slump last season.

This is something very unusual and seeing Borussia Dortmund at the top of the table I can't help but wonder if this is a dream or reality because for long years Bayern Munich have dominated the Bundesliga, maybe it is time to experience the reign of a different club even if for a year only but to achieve this Dortmund will have to stay focus and consistent for the remaining parts of the season and that should begin from their next fixture against Bayern Munich to increase the point gap and boost their advantage.
This season has been quite mixed and the change at the top has been quite frequent. I am sure not many people expected that. But the situation is only because Bayern Müchen often did not play so well in this season. It is not that the other teams like Dortmund and Union Berlin are much better than Bayern Munich. The gaps in points are only so small because Bayern Munich is not playing an outstanding season. It is true that the position of the standings changes every week because Bayern Munich is not playing well and I quite agree with your opinion. But on the other hand, Bayern Munich is currently in a difficult period and we know that they often got draws in the match at the beginning of last January, but luckily they have been able to fix it all and are now starting to achieve consistent results again. But last week's match was also something Bayern Munich didn't want and they had to admit defeat to their opponent Leverkusen. With this result, Dortmund are back at the top of the current bundesliga. In fact about this season from the start of the season also Bayern Munich is not the team that is in the top position but Union Berlin, so if you are surprised by Dortmund who are at the top of the standings at this time, then it seems you have forgotten or missed the results that were at the start of the season or before the break season. Because if you realized at that time that it was Union Berlin who were top of the table, then with Dortmund leading the table at this moment at least you wouldn't be surprised either. Because yes, this season Bayern Munich is not as good as in previous seasons, so that Bayern Munich's dominance in winning the Bundesliga title is threatened to stop this season. |

Their next game is a home one against Strasbourg. Technically Monaco are the favourite side but still they need to watch out for offensive threats of their competitor. Because Strasbourg started to get a little better results lately and they are climbing slowly. Monaco should be winning this game to maintain a winning streak.
There is no doubt that AS Monaco will win their match against Strasbourg, they have some positive points such as playing at home, their condition as a stronger team, and also their mission to be in the top 2 in order to play in the UCL for next season. Even so, they shouldn't underestimate Strasbourg, because basically they don't have a good enough record in terms of dominance in the history of their meetings. On paper Monaco is the favorite, of course many people will bet on this match for Monaco, but on the other hand Strasbourg last week won against Auxerre 2 goals without reply and that could have increased their confidence to be able to get points in the match later, for example holding Monaco to a draw because in their last 5 meetings Monaco and Strasbourg both won 2x and drew 1x in the meeting this weekend I think the score will be a draw or Monaco won narrowly From the odds currently available it is clear that Monaco are indeed the team that are the favorites to win but unfortunately, so far this season Monaco has been better off playing away. Also, in their first meeting of the season Strasbourg lost 1-2 by Monaco, on which occasion Monaco played away. So, I personally think that this is not an easy match for Monaco, because maybe Strasbourg can hold Monaco to a draw. But yes, if Monaco really can play even better to improve their home results, then Monaco must win this match. |

It looks like the match between Bayer Leverkusen v Royale Union is a forgotten match or maybe, these two teams don't have a good chance of advancing to the final. In fact, the Royale Union has pretty good potential to be able to continue to go further because the Royale Union is the winner of Group D above Union Berlin and also Braga.
Because sometimes, teams that aren't considered can go further, but in reality sometimes they can surprise by providing tough resistance when playing against top teams. Therefore, I think Royale Union still needs to be watched out for, because surprises can happen at any time and in any match.

Maybe Atletico Madrid have made a really good progress to secure their position in top four but I don't think they are very safe now. The balances can change anytime depending on how good Real Sociedad and Betis will be in the rest of the season. But after watching Real Sociedad for many weeks I have lost my belief in them significantly to catch up with Atletico Madrid. It started to seem like Atletico Madrid will secure the third position for themselves and the last position for the Champions League will be between Real Sociedad and Betis.
About the last position I'm favouring Betis. I think they have more potential than Real Sociedad if they keep up a decent form. It is easy to close a gap of three points for them in that case.
Atletico are in good shape, but it is true that they are not completely safe because they have not too much gap. They should not pin their hopes on the competing team to get sub-optimal results. But they have to stand on their own feet so they can continue to be in their current position until the end of the season. They have that ability and they should be able to do well. Atletico Madrid is a team that has always been in the Champions League zone. Even though Atletico only have a three-point gap with Real Sociedad, but I personally am very confident that Atletico will still be able to end this season in third place. Because Real Sociedad and also Betis do not have good stability in their performance in every match, this factor makes it difficult for Real Sociedad and Betis to compete for third place. Therefore, I think there will be competition for fourth place and the two teams will be Real Sociedad and Betis, because Atletico will be able to focus on locking in third until the end of the season. |

Auxerre, who had surprised in several previous matches, they had to swallow their first defeat in the last 5 matches and Strasbourg was the team that managed to beat Auxerre. Broadly speaking, Auxerre was able to hold off to a draw with several strong teams who were in 10th position in the standings and above, but it looks like their achievements must stop and their chances of getting away from the relegation zone must be delayed because of this defeat.
Yes it is and also, it looks difficult for teams who are in the relegation zone in Ligue 1 to be able to avoid it. Because after all, Ligue 1 has four teams that will be relegated, and that's different from other leagues which only have three teams that will be relegated. So, with so many quotas for the relegation zone, then of course this makes it difficult for teams that are ranked lower to increase rapidly. Because even though they can achieve good results such as draws in the last few matches but still, if they don't have the ability to win three points consistently. So it will still be a difficult job for them to get out of the relegation zone. |

Talking about the title race, it is clear that Arsenal are ahead of Manchester City. But that doesn't mean they can comfortably be in that place because now week by week it's becoming more and more important to get a win. In that way they have a burden, and usually that burden affects them in the outcome of the game. Mental toughness, now that's what they have to show, and if they manage to maintain that mentality then Arsenal will be champions.
After all, at this moment Arsenal will have a better focus than Manchester City for the title competition in the Premiere League. Because Manchester City is still very motivated to win the Champions League title, so it looks like Manchester City will get a heavier burden or pressure at this moment than Arsenal. With the differences in the schedules owned by these two teams, Arsenal can maximize their performance in the Premier League. So, of course, by having a point gap like now, of course this point gap will allow Arsenal to be able to play well in the remaining matches. |

I hope that ancellotti will did some evaluation. The problem is now real madrid defenders are lazy as fuck. It can be seen from some chances that already gotten by barcelona in the last game of elclassico.
I don’t think Real Madrid defenders are the cause of the problem. I think the coach has a fault in this. I think Carvajal should have less playing time. Going down to their central defenders like Rudiger and Militao are doing a good job in the absence of David Alaba. Also, I think Nacho is a bit slow and isn’t really going forward and attacking more. In terms of midfielders, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are almost worn out players. Players doing the real job are Camavinga and Valverde as they’ve been instrumental in linking the defense to the attack. During the game against Liverpool, Toni Kroos should have supported Vini Jnr to attack from the left side and couldn’t. I do think Madrid should change their coach who would be willing to bring in new players. Tactical brilliance also plays a major role in a team's performance every season, a team can have good and experienced players and still find it difficult to win games and competing against top teams for trophies. I think Ancelloti has a major role to play and Real Madrid have not been so good this season in the league as a result of decisions made by Ancelloti who seem to channel his focus on the Champions league title. I don't know if it was Ancelotti's fault or not but one thing is clear, in my opinion this season Barcelona is indeed better than Real Madrid but only for the domestic league. But if we compare it to this Champions League then of course, I think Ancelotti is still fine to coach Real Madrid, and the problem of bringing in new players of course that can be realized in the next transfer market. That way, Ancelotti will still be able to stay at Real Madrid because after all, keeping old players at Real Madrid, I think, has become a culture that belongs to Real Madrid. But yes, of course the time will come for Real Madrid to replace old players with young players who have great potential with Real Madrid. |

Looks like Barca might start next season in Segunda Whooops  It's interesting how clubs that were pro-Superleague new dealing with all kinds of problems. Don't think it's a coincidence. What do you mean? Did Barcelona experience a serious problem until it was dropped to the Segunda? Segunda is a lower caste in Spain and I'm really not sure and/or don't understand what you mean, about how Barcelona will play in Segunda next season? Because after all, if there is a sanction then I'm not sure Barcelona will be dropped that low. If you know clearer information then say so, because if you don't get any information and you say that then clearly it is wrong and bad information. |

The league is already won by Napoli and it will be difficult for Lazio to catch up with them with this huge gap at this point in time, I don't even see Lazio finishing 2nd position at end of the season, Inter Millan will overtake them in just a matter of time in my own opinion. Juventus is gradually moving out from becoming the major dominant club in the Seria A, which for me is good, it was a kind of becoming so boring, just having only one club dominate the league almost every season.
Lazio is indeed not enough in capacity to compete with Napoli, moreover Lazio is also going through difficult times this season. But I am very happy if Napoli goes ahead alone without any competitors this season to win the Scudetto because we can know that some of the other big Serie A teams are playing so badly that they are not getting maximum results and for sure they have to start improving so they can compete with Napoli next season . in the last few seasons in the Serie-A league the dominance of Juventus is no longer there, slowly other teams have started to emerge as candidates for the Serie-A championship. As we know, last season AC Milan managed to win the Serie-A Champion with great difficulty and this season you can say that Napoli has won the Serie-A Champion. No one has been able to play consistently like Napoli to be able to compete strictly. I think the top 5 European leagues are only the English league which is able to compete strictly with rankings 1 to 3 strictly. This is the main attraction for us as football lovers. Apart from that, even though this season Napoli has had good results by dominating Serie A, it seems I still doubt Napoli if you link it to Napoli's performance next season. Because usually, Serie A teams besides Juventus are difficult to maintain dominance this season with domination in the season to come. Therefore, even though this season Napoli looks very good and even perfect, but basically we cannot be sure to say that Napoli's dominance will continue until next season. Also, even though anything can still happen, I'm still not completely sure that Napoli will still get good results in the next season as well. |

That's right, Liverpool really did great matches against big teams but lost many points against weaker teams in the EPL, they already lost everything this season and should start focusing on next season, i wonder how the team will play against man city and if they will be to get at least one point, especially because Manchester city will push hard to reduce the 8 points gap with arsenal
Facing Arsenal on Matchday 30, surely Liverpool will prepare everything carefully, Liverpool's winning percentage is also quite large, reaching 38%, maybe because this match will be held at Anfield Stadium. but arsenal have also performed well so far, their chances of scoring against liverpool are also quite large, this match is very important for both teams. Manchester City, Chelsea and also Arsenal, who will face Liverpool in the next three matches in the Premier League, of course, are not easy opponents. So if you only consider Liverpool playing against Arsenal, then chances are Liverpool can still provide a strong resistance. But unfortunately, before Liverpool played against Arsenal, the reality was that Liverpool had to play against big teams too. Therefore, I'm not sure that Liverpool will still have the stamina and/or good morale when they play against Arsenal later. Because maybe Liverpool will play optimally when playing against Manchester City and also Chelsea, so Liverpool may experience great fatigue and will make them unable to play optimally when playing against Arsenal. |

At a time when most people are waiting for the match between Manchester City v Bayern Munich and Real Madrid v Chelsea, but I personally really look forward to Benfica's progress at this moment. Playing against Inter and for me Benfica still has a chance to be able to win and qualify for the semifinals and then, in the semifinals maybe Benfica will play against Napoli and again I personally feel Benfica can do their best.
Because after all, this season in the Champions League Benfica has gone through difficult times and in fact Benfica was able to go through well by beating PSG and also Juventus. Therefore, I feel that Benfica still has good abilities if it only plays against Inter and Napoli.

But anyway, Manchester United's chances are bigger than any other challengers in this competition. and if United don't have problems with their players, for example with injuries. I am quite optimistic, they will progress to the final round of this competition. well, for Juventus, let's wait and see how they play their match against Sporting Lisbon.
Arsenal team was considered as the most favorite team in Europa League. But they lost against Sporting and left the Europa League. And so now it cannot be said which team is the favorite for the Europa League title. Manchester United's performance is very good. Even then, there is no saying that this team will win the title. I wouldn't be surprised if such a Manchester United side loses in their next match against Sevilla. Sevilla's performance has been poor this season. However, the Sevilla team is too experienced for the Europa League platform. Sevilla has a chance to win against Manchester United. I don't think Arsenal are the favorite team in the Europa League, and Arsenal's elimination from the Europa League in my opinion is not something strange. Maybe they consider Arsenal to be at the top of the English Premier League, so they favor Arsenal but for me, that really isn't used as a benchmark. Also on several occasions I have thought about Manchester United and also Juventus, and even though Manchester United this season lost heavily 7-0 by Liverpool in the Premier League. But still, for me it won't have a bad impact on Manchester United in the Europa League. Because basically Erik ten Hag has succeeded in restoring Manchester United's performance for the better, so that Manchester United's chance of advancing to the European League final is still possible. |

If barcelona is consistent with their wins in the few games remaining until the end of the season, of course it will bring barcelona to win the league title this season, Xavi has provided evidence that barcelona can rise from adversity and it may take time to get it back to its former glory.  The La Liga title this season is in sight for Barcelona because eternal rival Real Madrid is already 12 points behind Barcelona. That is a distance that will be very difficult for Real Madrid to pursue as long as Barcelona is consistent in getting wins in the remaining matches this season, because Real Madrid needs to see Barcelona lose five times and he must be able to win five times in order to shift Barcelona at the top of the standings. The fact is that Real Madrid have not been able to beat Barcelona this season out of their three matches this season, Real Madrid have lost twice this season by Barcelona in La Liga and also, Real Madrid have lost this season by Barcelona in the Copa del Rey. So, with results like that, it is clear that Barcelona under Xavi's coaching has the ability to dominate the local league or domestic league. Furthermore, Xavi must be able to provide good development for Barcelona in the Champions League next season. Because after all, a team as big as Barcelona should also have good results in the Champions League, even though it didn't make it to the final match but at least it should be able to bring Barcelona to a higher phase in the Champions League next season. |

I still can't understand the psg weake preformence in the league 1, they got disqualified from the champions league and this us enough for them to focus on the league 1 and try to settle the trophy asap, but what we see is the contrary se they lost to rennes without even scoring a goal
Losing to Rennes also won't change anything for PSG because the PSG team can still be at the top of the standings with a distance of 7 points from Marseille and for now PSG is still not weak in Ligue 1 even though they have been eliminated from the Champions League this season and for next season PSG is only need to fix some weaknesses in order to be able to compete again in the Champions League because in Ligue1 PSG is still a very strong number one team. the difference in points for PSG is still in their favor. even though they lost a few times, they still wouldn't be swept off the top of the table. but I believe PSG will not want to repeat the 2020-2021 season. they only have 1 point difference with their challenger. and PSG finally lost in the race for the title. there are still about 10 matches, if PSG is careless, Marseille can snatch the top position of the standings from PSG. If PSG loses several times and/or loses in a row then of course, their position will not be safe and PSG cannot relax just having a gap in points like that. Because if they take things too lightly, the worrying thing is that it is difficult to improve performance and it is difficult to get good results in every match and that will still threaten their position. But yes, if we consider the squad that PSG has, of course PSG still has the chance to return to winning ways. It's just that if PSG take things too lightly and/or relax too much then I think it might be a blunder. |

Getting used to the fact that there are no league matches this week and no European matches either. International matches have never really interested me, especially for qualifying matches, then there is little tension. The differences in these matches are usually huge. There are a few nice matches in between, but the numbers 1 and 2 of all groups continue, so you have to do your best as a top country not to qualify your own. France - Holland might be an interesting game to observe.
Also, this is still in the early stages and it seems that we also don't have a broad view to assess every team that will play. Even though there are records about head to head but still, the situation and conditions are not the same as at that time so to predict at a moment like this it is usually only the famous national team. By the way, the national team matches are sometimes not very interesting, especially when the national team doesn't have famous players, so it seems that the interest in waiting for the match is lacking. Therefore, you also only say about well-known national teams like France and the Netherlands which will indeed compete but apart from that, there is still Italy against England too. |

First time seeing the odds for Man City vs Liverpool and I'm quite surprised that Liverpool is the heavy underdog @5.2 on moneyline. I mean it's understandable that City will still come out as favorite but I did not expect it to be by that much. There seem to be no major injury on the Reds' side but I guess Haaland's recent five-goal fest at the Champion's League had a significant impact on the odds.
I think it's not about Haaland, but that Liverpool shows a sad unstable game and the likelihood that everything will change in the game with City is small. But on the other hand, Liverpool have historically been able to mobilize in big games and given the games with Real Madrid, it can be assumed that they have already "exhausted" the reserves of unsuccessful games and will be more successful with City. In any case, in my opinion, Liverpool should win more than one game in five, so the odds of 5.50 is an easy choice - such a bet should be profitable in the long run. Well, I hope you are lucky to bet on Liverpool's victory in the away match against Manchester City later. Because in reality, Liverpool have been very bad so far this season when Liverpool are playing away, moreover the opponent that Liverpool will face is Manchester City, which of course is difficult for Liverpool to beat the home team. Indeed, sometimes Liverpool can play well when against top teams but at this moment I'm really not sure. Because of the series of results that are not good for Liverpool when playing away, of course it will allow Manchester City to beat Liverpool maybe without the difficult resistance that Liverpool can do in this match. |

Hertha, Schalke and Stuttgart's performances have been poor this season. There will certainly still be a change of a coach at these clubs. Certainly not at Schalke. Otherwise that would be the third coach this season. Stuttgart changed his coach last year in December. So only Hertha does not have a new coach yet. If Hertha will lose the next few games and remain at a relegation spot the people in charge will certainly pull the ripcord and will present us a new coach. But the bottom three teams can still compete to get out of the relegation zone because the points gap is still close but yes, because there is only one place to allow them to get out of the relegation zone. Then their competition will never be easy, so retaining the old coach and or having a new coach still doesn't guarantee that it will be easy for them to avoid the relegation zone. So, I personally feel that it would be better to keep the current team, because it will be a difficult job if they have a new coach at a difficult time like this. But yes, if progress isn't good, then it would be better to start with a new coach from now on, but they still have to be prepared for relegation. |

ac monza vs lazio even in my opinion lazio is in a slightly easy match for them because ac monza is not a too strong team this season. but lazio shouldn't underestimate ac monza because after all they have to be able to press from the early minutes if they want to lead quickly.
They are unbeaten in the last 5 matches. And they managed to win 4 out of 5 matches. Lazio has been doing great this season. The second place in the points table is now occupied by Lazio. Lazio is unlikely to drop points against Monza in such circumstances. Lazio is favorites in this match. And Lazio should win the match one-sidedly. But it's at home in Monza. The home team can become dangerous at any time. So the Lazio team must perform carefully. Still, I'd put my money on Lazio winning this match. However, if I consider the statistics, of course, Lazio is the favorite to win. Because after all, Lazio so far this season also has a better record of away matches when compared to the results of Lazio's home matches. With Lazio having better results when Lazio play away, then of course I believe Lazio will be able to win easily or with good dominance in the match. Indeed, we also cannot underestimate the lower ranked teams, because sometimes these lower ranked teams can make a surprise by putting up a tough fight. But at this moment because Lazio has also managed to be in second place in the current Serie A standings, then of course Lazio will maintain that position with greater efforts. |

Honestly it seems the aging players in Real Madrid is already affecting the performance of the club Luka Modric is 37, Karim Benzema is 35 and David Kross is 33, Alaba 30 these are established and well experienced players unfortunately age is affecting their output, though Madrid has the likes of Camavinga, Vinicius Jr, Tchouameni as a promising talented youngsters, however I think Chelsea has a youthful squad who will pose a threat to Real Madrid qualification to the semifinals provided that Graham Potter played a good team with a perfect tactical formation.
Real Madrid's current condition is good, but Chelsea's statistics are not in favor of Real Madrid. Chelsea may be a little lucky that their second leg will be played in England. It's hard to guess, but I hope Madrid can win big in the first leg. That will make it easier for them in the second leg. At this time, Potter is also dizzy because of poor results in the EPL. Maybe Potter can be sacked at the end of this season. UCL is one of Potter's hopes to win and entertain the fans. After all, I think Real Madrid and Chelsea at this moment cannot be compared in terms of performance and quality. Also, although Chelsea can still play in the quarter-finals of the Champions League this time, because Chelsea managed to make a comeback after beating Dortmund. But still, playing against Real Madrid is not promising just about the results of the previous comeback and also, it is not enough just to have young players. Due to the fact last season when Chelsea still had good performance under Tuchel's coaching, but Chelsea still couldn't knock Real Madrid out of the Champions League. Real Madrid's previous success in getting rid of Liverpool is at least proof that with the squad that Real Madrid has this season it still allows Real Madrid to beat the next Premier League team, and that is Chelsea. |
