Arsenal will face Sporting in this round of 16, and I think they will be able to advance to the next round by beating Sporting. I'm not trying to put Sporting in a weak team, but with what Arsenal can show this season Arsenal are more convincing than Sporting. Arteta definitely realizes they are under a lot of pressure in the Premier League, so it is likely that Arteta will be able to maximize in the 2 competitions they are currently participating in.
Agree, I also don't consider Sporting to be a weak team, but because this season Arsenal and Sporting have clearly different performances and results in local leagues. So of course, Arsenal have a better chance of winning and advancing to the next round in the Europa League. Indeed, Sporting in the previous several seasons had good performance in the local league, but this season Sporting has experienced a decline in performance. So, this is different from Arsenal who have performed very well this season and with these factors it will certainly be difficult for Sporting to beat and eliminate Arsenal. |

Real Madrid v Barcelona in the Copa del Rey really doesn't have many goals, at least that has been reflected in the available odds but I still bet with the option of over 2.5 goals. Because after all, I expected an interesting match with lots of goals so I ignored the factors that I was aware of beforehand.
But yes, with a result like this, at least it proves that this season Barcelona really has a good defense. Because even though Real Madrid can control the game, but with the discipline of Barcelona's defense. So Real Madrid does not have the ability to convert the opportunities it has, to convert them into goals.

It was hopeful that Arsenal were able to score four goals against Everton. Especially this match was very critical, while everyone was waiting for Arsenal to lose points, Arsenal scored four goals and silenced their opponents. The most problematic game they will play until the end of the season is the Manchester City match, which may cause some problems with Newcastle. If he doesn't have much problems in his matches in the other weeks, Arsenal's championship can be seen in the Premier league this year.
In essence, a team that will win the title is a team that can maintain consistency until the end of the season. Because if one of them can't be consistent and gets a few defeats and at the same time the rival team in the title race wins a few wins, then of course one of them will have a chance to win the title. Because they have a gap of only five points and six points is a close point gap, so their position is indeed not secure because the competition in the title race will be increasingly competitive. |

If I compare Lens and Lille this season, then I will conclude that Lens and Lille have not much different qualities this season. Because Lens and Lille have a better record when playing at home and also not so good when playing away, but tomorrow's match Lens will play at home against Lille as an away team.
With a record like that, I personally am still quite confident that Lens will be able to maintain its good record when playing at home. But indeed, if based on past records regarding their head to head, then Lille is still the best. But yes, in this moment and in this season it shows that Lens has the ability not to lose when Lens is playing at home.

In the round of 16 it looks like the teams that will be competing are quite even with each other, there is indeed a difference in strength but the difference is not too significant. The difference in their strength is not too great even though there are several teams that are not superior to other teams. Honestly, I want to see how Manchester United is performing in the Europa League this season, because they have done their best and even to be in the round of 16, their struggle is harder than any other team. So I wanted to see how far they would go.
At the time in the group phase, the reality was that Manchester United were not that good and Manchester United did not have a promising performance to go further, but as time went on and there were some reshuffles in the Manchester United squad. Until in the end Erik ten Hag succeeded in making Manchester United have a good performance, even Manchester United was able to get rid of Barcelona. With this good achievement, of course Manchester United has a great chance to be able to go even further at this moment. Playing against Betis is not a difficult obstacle for Manchester United, because a stronger team in La Liga like Barcelona can also be beaten by Manchester United. |

Tomorrow there will be a Benfica vs Famalicao match and if we look at the odds offered by the bookie, of course the number of odds is very small for Benfica to win, while the odds for Famalicao are very high and that's enough to make me hesitate to bet on Famalicao. On the other hand, Benfica must secure this victory so that they can continue to stay away from Porto's pursuit on the standings board. Even though the distance between the two is quite far, an additional 3 points in this match will still be a priority for Benfica. With the odds, I think I'll bet Benfica with the handicap (-1.5) so my profit is worth it.
It's not hard for Benfica to win by more than 1 goal difference, so I think you have a good chance to win. Here where I bet, it's paying 1.62 Against weaker teams Benfica is scoring a lot of goals and many games they don't concede any goal. Betting on Famalicao, playing away from home, even paying 14.0 I don't think it's worth it. Making a riskier bet, but not that risky, you can do a triple on Benfica's victory with handicap (-1.5) + Porto + Sporting hehehe After all, Benfica is a team that has dominated the Portuguese League this season, so playing at home against a team that is mid-table in the standings, of course, betting with the -1.5 option still allows Benfica to win. I personally don't doubt Benfica's quality this season, because Benfica is also very good when playing in the Champions League and of course that is a very good performance that Benfica has this season. Also, regarding Porto and Sporting who will both play against teams that are in the middle of the standings, of course they are also worthy of being included in the bet. Regarding the multi bet option or parlay bet and or single bet option, bets for these three teams have a good chance of making a profit. |

It looks like the match between Real Madrid v Barcelona in the Copa del Rey today will not have many goals because even if I check from the betting options about over 2.5 goals and the odds are quite high at around @2.00. Even if I didn't check those options, I'm sure this Real Madrid v Barcelona match is likely to have a lot of goals, it's also about both teams to score.
But yes, anything can happen and even though the bookies estimate the match will be minimal in goals, I still believe in my assessment that this match will have at least three goals or maybe more because both teams are very productive.

I think Chelsea can beat Dortmund at home.
it also depends on Potter trying to deal with pressure from Dortmund. Chelsea certainly have to think about sharpening their front line. they are 1 goal behind, and must catch up if they want to open up a chance to qualify for the next round. but it won't be easy for Chelsea. Moreover, there is news that even one of Chelsea's strong defenders, Thiago Silva, cannot play due to an injury he got in the match against Tottenham. this is a loss for Chelsea. but anyway Potter has to deal with some tactic that could work in Chelsea's favor. To be honest I'm not sure about Chelsea at this moment because even in the Premier League Chelsea are in a difficult situation with losing streaks. With a situation that is not good like that, it will be difficult for Chelsea to be able to beat Dortmund, because Dortmund's situation is better which of course will make Dortmund's gameplay more disciplined. With these considerations and even though Chelsea only lost by a score of 1-0 in the first leg, this still will not guarantee Chelsea can comeback easily. But if I look at the current available odds it looks like Chelsea is predicted to win, but I'm still not sure about Chelsea. |

Arsenal is already matching up to Manchester City in their last five games, and at one point I wondered if they would make it this far. To my greatest surprise, they have made everyone proud, unlike clubs like Chelsea, who have lost their last five games in a row. Likewise, Liverpool was outstanding yesterday, defeating Wolverhampton 2-0 with six shots on target to Wolverhampton's one. It was indeed an ass whopping.
Basically Arsenal are still not safe because Manchester City's quality is better, so if Arsenal want to win the title this season then of course Arsenal must be more consistent. Because after all, at this moment it's not only Manchester City that continues to get good results, because Manchester United can also keep getting closer. Therefore, the competition for the English Premier League title at this moment will continue, meaning that no team can confirm that they will be able to win the title before the league ends. |

Their match in el clasico in the Copa Del Rey is their 3rd game this season, Real Madrid can win one match in the first leg of La Liga, while Barcelona won one Super Copa final and it became their first trophy this season. Now their matches are more even than last season, because Barcelona have improved a lot. If one of them can win this match then they will most likely become the champion. And it looks like these two teams will be after that. This match will be very interesting to watch.
The Copa del Rey semifinals will be played over two legs, so even though Real Madrid or Barcelona can win today's match, they are still not promising to qualify for the final. But yes, at least if one of them can win in this first leg, then of course it will make it easier for them to come to the second leg later. The other teams that also played in this semifinal were Bilbao and Osasuna and indeed, if Real Madrid and/or Barcelona qualify for the Copa del Rey final then of course this team will be the team that seems certain to win the Copa del Rey title this season. |

Liverpool in the last matches of the Premier League began to play better and this allowed them to move up a little in the table. Maybe it's too early to talk about it, but they have a chance to compete with Tottenham and Newcastle for fourth place. In a few days Liverpool will host Manchester United and if they manage to win it will be very important for Liverpool, although it will be very difficult to beat a team like Manchester United.
Liverpool have shown a pretty good performance, but when they meet Manchester United, the chance to win is very small. Manchester United is a club that is strong enough and not easy to beat, so Liverpool must take advantage of the slightest gap to try to get a victory against the red devils. If Liverpool lose this match, then being able to stay in the top five at the top of the standings is good enough. Even though Liverpool managed to beat Wolves 2-0 in the match last night, but the reality is that Liverpool is not easy to get the final result. Even though Liverpool controlled the match from the first minute, but Liverpool were only able to score a goal in the 70th minute. Therefore, to be able to beat Manchester United in the next match, of course, will be a difficult job for Liverpool so I'm not sure Liverpool will win. But even so, I'm still pretty sure for a draw because after all, these two teams certainly have the ambition to win so they will also make a big effort to discipline their defense. |

Dortmund are much more reassuring than Leipzig on paper maybe. It is due to Dortmund's still continuing winning streak of course. But it wouldn't be sensible to believe in them completely anyway in my opinion. Because this is a big game for them technically and they should be ready for any kind of a result. I just don't expect them to lose anyway. A draw by seeing goals from both sides would be likely as well.
If Adeyemi and Moukoko both become absent then Haller will have a big responsibility in the attacking line. But he seems quite passionate after his returnal to the team.
Yes indeed, in theory Dortmund is indeed the favorite team to win because this match will also be played at home to Dortmund. So it is only natural that Dortmund is projected to be able to continue its winning streak but unfortunately, Leipzig also has a target of staying in the top four. Apart from that so far this season, Leipzig has a very good record when playing at home but for away matches, Leipzig does not have as good a record as Leipzig playing at home. Factors like this in theory will indeed make an assessment for them but what is clear, I believe both teams will score goals in this match. |

Borussia Dortmund vs Leipzig will be the first game this week. This match is very important for both teams because they are also in the path of champions. If Borussia Dortmund lose this game then they might fall behind Bayern Munich again and if Leipzig lose this game then it will widen them from the team that is above them at the moment and it is very likely they will be displaced by the thin Freiburg under them.
Critical game and a draw between Dortmund and Leipzig is possible here depends from the performance of Leipzig mainly. Dortmund have the advantage of playing home and being solid since the beginning of the year by not losing matches. Otherwise both teams scored and conceived the same number of goals  I would say Dortmund > draw > Leipzig. But I'm sure Dortmund won't lose this match even though indeed, a draw could happen but because Dortmund is on a very good trend, I'm pretty sure Dortmund will win this match. I also agree that in this match it is likely that both teams will score goals, because these two teams do have good productivity as well in having and or scoring goals in every match. But if for example Leipzig can beat Dortmund, and then Dortmund's defeat will not make Dortmund overtaken. It's just that, if Dortmund lose this match then the competition in the title race will of course be a little wider. But I'm sure Dortmund will be able to maintain its position to continue to stick to or follow Bayern Munich. |

Of course Juventus is different from AS Roma which is difficult to be consistent, because Juventus is a team that can maintain good results in every match. Even though in the match against Torino yesterday Juventus were not fully focused on ball possession, but the final result in that match was that Juventus won with a very good score.
With good consistency like this, of course Juventus has a big chance to get back in and compete for the top four positions.
Indeed, for now the gap in points is still quite wide but over time I am sure the teams that are above Juventus at this time will slowly decrease except for Napoli.

Bayern Munich's chances are far greater to qualify for the next round, compared to PSG's chances of making a comeback in the second leg, but Bayern Munich must also be wary of PSG because if Bayern Munich is off guard PSG can surprise and will punish them
Munich is indeed more favored, not only because they are already 1 goal ahead, but they will play the second leg at home, and that is an advantage for Munich to qualify for the next fake. PSG will probably deploy all their great strength at the start of the match. including applying the pressing game from the start to catch up. Munich must anticipate this. if not or use tactics incorrectly, this could be a fatal punishment for Munich. Sometimes implementing a counter-attack strategy can also give good results, but if PSG don't have a good defense then implementing this strategy will also be dangerous. But yes, if I consider the squad that PSG has, then in reality PSG has quality players on every line and with that, PSG should be fine to implement any kind of gameplay. So, basically an aggregate advantage with only one goal is not safe enough because PSG also has good ability to make a comeback. |

Well, Everton defeated Arsenal last time they played at home a month ago so I would say Everton shouldn't be underestimated. Also right now Arsenal isn't able to find the net as much as they used to before WC so that's a big worrying sign and so Everton might have a slight chance today. Without Jesus, Arsenal's scoring rate has dropped but still making great plays. Hopefully today we will take those advantage, find more goals than Everton do and will win the game with dominating performance. Saka is expected to find himself in the match against Everton. He should make a difference for Arsenal with his goals, while Gabriel Martinelli is also expected to do the same. Arsenal had to win, but they just had to avoid the mistakes that allowed Everton's players to create chances. I believe Arsenal win today but there should be a chance of an Everton win even if it's only very low. Even though the Everton team are given higher odds compared to that of Asernal it shows the level of confidence being placed in Asernal as their expected to make the most out of this match this is because their last meeting with Everton did not go well and Everton end up winning. But that is not enough reason why we should lose hope in the top-performing club, this session Asernal has performed exceptionally well and at the moment I do t think they're ready to lose 3 points in this match so it will be a must-win match Arsenal. Anyway, since Arsenal is on the path to the English Premier League title race, then of course Arsenal have a better performance than Everton. Although indeed, any results can happen later, but the results on paper are of course Arsenal are still projected to win this match and that is also reflected in the available odds. But I personally don't really support either of them to win, I just hope that this match can have a lot of goals or at least both teams to score. At least if the match has a lot of goals then the match won't be boring, because if I consider the recent results of Everton's matches and also the results of the head to head against Arsenal they more often end matches without both teams to score. |

UEFA Europe League have been on 16th round and the participants left from English primer league have two team between Arsenal and Manchester United, from La Liga participants filled by Sevilla, Real Sociedad and Real Betis. Serie A have two participants left in 16th round Europe League are Juventus and AS Roma. Even though english premier league have only two participants but these clubs are the strongest clubs in EPL now. I think that these clubs are not even comparable with so many participants from another league. I think that if MU and Arsenal have biggest win probability to get europa league trophy. Im still believing it now if EPL teams can perform better than another team from a different league. I can't even wait the continuation from europa league. The performance from MU makes me feel so confident to bet on it. The 16th round have been drawing and first leg will start on Friday 10th March, Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal will open first leg of Europe League round 16th and I think Arsenal have chance win first leg due consistency performance in domestic league and perfect result in Europe League group stage.
Lisbon was not an easy opponent caused by this club was playing in UCL before. Arsenal must be carefully caused by sporting lisbon may able to beat arsenal in the first leg. Arsenal's odd looks pretty good enough for people to bet on it. Basically, because the competition in the English Premier League is very competitive, this at least makes the English Premier League teams look like they have a stronger performance by other teams. So it's not surprising, when teams from the English Premier League are at least always the favorites when playing in Europe. But regarding Manchester United, of course this team has a good chance to be able to go further because of the success of Erik ten Hag which can make Manchester United rise from difficulties. Also regarding Sporting who will play against Arsenal, basically this season Sporting is also not very good in the local league and this makes it doubtful about Sporting's assessment of being able to provide a difficult resistance for Arsenal. |

Atletico Madrid are still on a really impressive unbeaten streak now. I thought that it would end against Real Madrid but it is stil on.
Maybe it is too late but it is still good to see Atletico Madrid making some improvement in their form in the league. They aren't in the title race but this form can at least keep them in top 4. But Betis are going to be a pretty big threat to them in this race for the Champions League. The point difference is two points now as Betis have gained with them. Next time Atletico Madrid are going to be hosting Sevilla. Sevilla are still a team having serious problems in defense. Their defensive effort against Osasuna was a proof for it. Atletico Madrid should be able to win this.
With a very good trend for Atletico at this moment, playing against Sevilla in the next match, of course, I'm sure that Atletico will still be able to win in that match. Because after all, even though Sevilla at this moment have come out of the relegation zone, but in reality Sevilla is still not consistent enough to win every match. Also, Sevilla's position is still not safe because it is still very vulnerable to falling into the relegation zone because the point gap is still close. With performance that is still not improving, then of course these factors will make it difficult for Sevilla to be able to withstand Atletico who are in good shape at this moment. |

Of course this will be a match for revenge, because in the first leg this season Arsenal were defeated by Everton. But apart from that, Arsenal are still the favorite team to win this match. But in my personal prediction, even though Arsenal are playing at home, it seems that these factors will not make it easy for Arsenal to beat Everton.
Because after all, Everton must also be able to start to get up to be free from the relegation zone and because of this factor I personally hope that Everton can play well in this match. It doesn't matter if the result is a draw, because Everton need point by point in every match.

AS Roma really can't be expected to finish in the top four because even, just playing against a weak team like Cremonese, AS Roma can't turn things around. Apart from that, what was so bad was that Mourinho got a red card, I think it was an incident that should not have happened because AS Roma also only played against mediocre team who are at the bottom of Serie A.
By the way, AS Roma became the first team to be beaten by Cremonese this season. With these results, I think AS Roma still doesn't deserve to be able to finish in the top five, because over time Juventus will really overtake AS Roma.
