They might have a chance again Madrid and Madrid might against them
I am more bothered how they go in the premier league
Van Dijk getting better and better
Liverpool does not have a chance in the English Premier League title. They are no longer top contenders but they can end up in top 4 if they are serious to displace Manchester United and Newcastle United and yet it is very difficult to happen.
In the Champions League, they don't also have a chance. I don't trust them to beat Real Madrid. What they cannot do when they had Mane and the team was complete, is it now  that they will do it?
Liverpool must always be consistent if they want to get into the top four, at least they can finish in third or fourth position. If for the first or second position it is very difficult for Liverpool to reach because it is certain that it will belong to Arsenal and Manchester City. A poor run of form at the start of the season has kept Liverpool out of the Premier League title contenders, now Klopp must set his sights on finishing in the top four to have any chance of featuring in next season's Champions League.

This is indeed a difficult situation for Liverpool, even though Liverpool are currently in sixth place but it is still not easy for Liverpool to be able to return to the top four in the standings. Because the teams above him are currently teams that are also experiencing an increase in performance, so of course that will make it difficult for Liverpool to get a Champions League ticket for next season.
Usually when a team is having trouble in the local league to finish in the top four, then they will try hard in the Champions League.

But unfortunately, Liverpool have to play against Real Madrid in the top 16 match in the Champions League, this makes Liverpool look like they are in a problem that is not easy to overcome.
What's more, it is hoped that Nunez will be able to quickly make a good contribution to the team, but it seems that it is still a hope because Nunez has also not been able to play with good results for Liverpool.
But yes, anything can still happen, but on paper Liverpool are having a difficult problem, and I'm not entirely sure Liverpool can overcome this problem and or recover this situation quickly.

After a bad start, Juventus still somewhat in the track of Napoli. They are also unlucky that Napoli takes so many points and actually leaves nothing behind.
We can see the progress of Juventus' development in Serie A is very good. Even in several matches they never lose and always win with satisfying results and games. Their failure in the UCL certainly gave a bitter lesson so they kept trying in the Italian Serie. Although maybe this is also too difficult to get the title, moreover, the number of points is very different from Napoli. Napoli itself is the most consistent and growing club. But I don't know if after the FWC there will be a change in players at the club or not, which might interfere with Napoli's performance. Because after all there are some big clubs aiming at some Napoli players.
Juventus shouldn't focus too much on winning titles, they should focus more on their own game. The reason is that it is true that they have won in a row, but I cannot say that their game is satisfactory. In fact, I think in some of their wins it was a stroke of luck that came their way. There is time for them to be able to perform even more satisfactorily, also some of the players have recovered from injury.

Anyway, Juventus still have to watch out for, because if Napoli are satisfied with the results they have got so far. Then it might make Napoli suffer a decline in performance, but if Napoli can realize that they still have to be consistent, then of course it will be difficult for other teams to catch up to this.
But with the good results that Juventus have achieved in the last few matches, I personally don't think it's just luck.

Because for me, a team as big as Juventus will certainly be able to recover over time and if I'm not mistaken, last season Juventus also almost failed to finish in the top four, but in the end Juventus were able to finish in the top four.
Therefore, I believe that the increase in performance that has occurred at Juventus is a result of their hard work, because with this increase in performance, Juventus have also managed to beat other big teams such as Milan, Inter and Lazio.
If the increase in Juventus' performance is just luck, then at least Juventus will not be able to beat these big teams, but because this is a real increase in performance, it is proven that Juventus can beat these big teams.

It looks like Morocco will get the same result as Costa Rica, these two teams are not really the favorites and even these two teams lost in match statistics. But both of them getting a narrow win was good enough for them, but the Belgium v ​​Morocco match is not over yet at least there are still a few minutes left and maybe Belgium can score an equalizer in the final minutes of the match.
I hope there are at least two goals in this match because I'm betting thin for the match of the day, considering I think they are difficult to predict.

Maybe if this will be a win for Morocco it looks like I'm not the only loser in the bet, because the result for Morocco and Costa Rica to win even with just a 1-0 win seems to be a result that is beyond most predictions.
Just don't think that teams like the favorites still can't get the easy results expected, even though Belgium also has a better squad than Morocco.

However, Bayern Munich has dropped points in several matches. However, Bayern Munich is the strongest when compared to the teams in the Bundesliga. Bundesliga teams are quite weak compared to Bayern Munich. Union Berlin had quite the season. But now they are 7 points behind Munich. There is no doubt that Bayern Munich will win the Bundesliga title this season just like the previous seasons. But I am looking forward to seeing how Munich performs against PSG in the upcoming Champions League match.

Bundesliga has already played 15 of its scheduled matches unlike the English Premier League, where there are still a few unfinished matches and the fact that Bayern Munich has reclaimed the first position makes it appear like nothing can unsettle them. Since Mane didn't travel to the world cup, he will have more time to recuperate than other important players who are now on the field. The champions league shouldn't be a problem for them, in my opinion.

Bayern Munich still has problems in the Champions League and Bayern Munich is not doing well in the Champions League, if you realize how much denomination Bayern Munich is in the Bundesliga then Bayern Munich should have good results in the Champions League too. But what happened so far, even Bayern Munich is not always easy to get to the final match and win the title in the Champions League.
A result like that is of course very disproportionate to what Bayern Munich has achieved in the Bundesliga and because of that, Bayern Munich still has to have a better performance in the Champions League at least to provide proof that Bayern Munich is not only strong in the Bundesliga.

I don't know why big clubs always want to buy more players. They will be focusing on Champions League and be buying so many players and forgetting that there is no club in Bundesliga that can give them big fights.
Bayern Munich coach should find a way to stablize his team and that team will be so great. They have too many goal scorers in the person of Mane, Sane, Gnabry, this African Moting, Coleman etc. These army is able to bring any team down if well utilized.

Sometimes, it doesn't matter how huge the club is, it might be that they are missing a specific player that could translate their enthusiasm at the moment. If a team is dependent on a single striker and that player suffers an injury, the team has no choice but to add another player during the open transfer period.

About the new players, I think even though Bayern Munich is a big team with good management, they have their own standards in signing players. That is, even though Bayern Munich has money, it is not easy for them to buy star players, because they really make a good assessment and selection of players to be recruited.
At least that way we can see how the purchases made by Bayern Munich so far haven't had too many failures, because most of the players that Bayern Munich have recruited, almost all of them can adapt and contribute well to the team.

There are some rumours about barcelona's transfer


I read in the local media that Barcelona is discussing with the financial fair play of the Spanyo League. According to the rules, Barcelona will no longer be able to buy new players in the winter market. They have spent 103 million euros.

Indeed, I don't understand this rule very well. But maybe they are looking for an opening to be able to make a transfer. For example, selling several players to reduce player spending. 
Maybe there is a limit to how much money a club can spend on buying new players per season and Barcelona may have exceeded that amount for the season and the only option now can be, either Barcelona will get new players on loans or any another transfer method aside from buying the players in the next transfer windows.

During the last season's transfer window, Barcelona did have problems related to financial fair play because, as the word goes, Barcelona has exceeded the predetermined limit. In fact, players like Jules Koundé and Andreas Christensen if I'm not mistaken, they were not immediately able to play for Barcelona's regular matches at that time because Barcelona had reached the limit so that they could no longer register all their players.
But somehow, they ended up on the Barcelona squad list and I completely forgot about that news.

Also, many players and coaches also commented on the status of Barcelona at that time and one example of a comment like "I don't understand, why a club that has financial problems can still continue to buy luxury players, etc."
There are also those who argue that Barcelona is on the verge of bankruptcy because of the high amount of debt but disproportionate income and in fact, many players are willing to cut their salaries, etc. This condition is indeed something that is not normal, if Barcelona continues to force buying expensive players, then to be honest I'm worried about Barcelona's current situation because they are still very messy.

Yes, Barcelona are 2 points ahead of Real Madrid and I don't think there is a big gap between the two candidates for the La Liga title. Barcelona have had a good run of form in their last few matches but after the World Cup break we never really know if they will manage to keep it going or not.
2 points is a small gap, Real Madrid can overtake Barcelona in 1 match only. Don't forget that we still have 1 El Classico, it is a chance for Real Madrid to return to 1st place if they can beat Barcelona again in this match. or if Barcelona is unlucky in the next few matches, they can miss points against small teams. After the world cup, there may be a surprise in Barcelona players' performance. They may feel tired, decrease in mentality, or get injured during the world cup competition. This can impact on their performance.

You might expect Xavi to be able to make his team better after failing in the Champions League. Barcelona will focus on Laliga, so chances are they will try their best.
Barcelona still played in the Europa League, right? In February, they have a schedule to play against Man United.
So, they cannot focus on La Liga only. They should focus on the Europa League match, too.



Why all the input you're saying seems to be just assessing the shortcomings that Barcelona might suffer after the World Cup, it shows you don't think Real Madrid won't suffer the same. An assessment like this is very unequal and in fact Real Madrid and Barcelona are strong rivals in La Liga which of course, both have high quality.
Even though Real Madrid is a team that has proven to be strong in Europe with the most Champions League titles, that doesn't mean Real Madrid will continue to get maximum results in every match.

Also, the result of the El Clásico match is not entirely a benchmark for the team that wins in the El Clásico match will win the title because even if you remember last season, it was a fact that Barcelona could beat Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu with a great score of 0-4.
This season, the El Clásico match was won by Real Madrid with a score of 3-1 but what happened, did Real Madrid top the current La Liga standings? Apart from that, this season Real Madrid will still be playing in the Champions League so it is clear, Real Madrid and Barcelona will still focus on many events and not only focus on La Liga.

Therefore, with this close point gap, of course, the top position in the standings will still be open because these two teams are still unable to maintain perfect results in every match.
But indeed, the competition for the top position in the current La Liga standings is only for Real Madrid and Barcelona. Because the other teams at the moment are not so good and in fact, one of the teams that often became contenders in the title race in previous seasons but this season Sevilla is struggling to stay away from the relegation zone.

When people talk about Arsenal and winning title race they talk is as if Manchester City is immune to losses. It looks as if it is only Arsenal that cam lose match. But that is very wrong because Manchester City is very beatable by any team. So, I doubt that Manchester City will remain consistent or will even be able to beat Liverpool.
The league race is open to everyone but Arsenal remains the favourites.

Yes, City makes some mistakes still despite being the title holder. They might be consistent but they still drop points in certain gameweeks. If Arsenal maintain better consistency then Arsenal will be giving City a hard time till the end for the title race. Still lot of matches to play and lot of gameweeks to go through so anything can happen. Can understand why they expect City to be at the top again as they have the history of being consistent even though they are behind and come out as a winner by the end. They don't expect to change that but many of us believe that this time Arsenal might have a good shot at the title.
Right now we are also waiting for the match between Arsenal and Manchester City, of course, because this could be a comparison between the two clubs, especially since they have never even met this season.
It is not impossible that their matches can be decisive as well so that it is more convincing whether one of them deserves to become a champion for the EPL or not.
Their first match of the season had to be postponed for several reasons which made us also have to wait to see who was the best between the two clubs.

So, will Arsenal never lose and in fact, so far Arsenal have had one defeat. I think, with them comparing Arsenal to Manchester City but that doesn't mean Manchester City will continue to win. Because after all, every team will of course always experience results that don't match expectations, so even though the team is in their best performance at least it's still possible for them to lose.
One of the reasons is because Manchester City is already a team that has good management with great coaches and players, so naturally they still compare Arsenal to Manchester City.

Basically I also admit that Arsenal this season is indeed better than previous seasons, but even though Arsenal are at the top of the table so far I personally am not entirely sure Arsenal will be able to maintain their performance.
But after all, there is still a chance for Arsenal to win the title, but because competition in the Premier League is very difficult, then at least there will always be a consideration that might allow them to lose points in a few matches later.

France vs Denmark match is underway and already running in the 10th minute. I support France in this match. but I don't bet on this match. because I have a little doubt. the position of the ball is still mostly controlled by Denmark. but I'm sure that soon France's dominance will be seen in this match.
thinking it would be a draw and finally mbappe scored the second goal and finally the situation is now 2-1 , i think it will last until the end of the game or hope to add another goal to make people who bet on france a little relieved and calmer for this match that it will soon be over, denmark is really not an easy opponent they continue to work hard in this match

And Mbappe is the man of the match in this match with the addition of 2 goals put him on the top scorer list for a while with a total of 3 goals
France is one of the most consistent countries so far they have the potential to be champions again this year, but yes we have to wait until the end of the group stage
Now I put France on the list of champions and the opponent candidate is between Brazil and England. What do you think, who is the potential winner?

Somehow I forgot France in this event, I really didn't consider France before. But if you see the good results so far, I'm also starting to put my heart on France to be able to win the World Cup title this time. But for the other teams, it's still difficult for me to choose but maybe they are Brazil and Spain.
But even though there are other teams that are also good, I still really consider that France is the team that has a higher chance of winning the title in my personal predictions.

I realize my previous choice was wrong because I chose Germany, but that choice was before the start of the World Cup.
After all the teams got their initial matches which could at least be a bit of a reference, I admit I was wrong in choosing and considering France as a very worthy team to be able to go further in this World Cup.

PSG are of course concentrated on the Champions League championship before anything else. As they have a trio consisting of Messi, Mbappe and Neymar it is like their biggest opportunity to make it. But they need to play with a really strong system from now on. Bayern Munich are one of the title contenders at the same time. Although they haven't made a striker transfer they are still very powerful.

I expect a very close matchup but PSG can still do this. Messi has really bad memories with Barcelona against Bayern Munich. Maybe it is time to have revenge on those times.  Smiley

My friend you are taking sides too fast
Why not PSG just play good football and win
Why should a player be so focused on taking revenge. Any of them both can win don't take side's fast

Does Messi even remember those things, players are always willing to take new challenges and make new sacrifices. It is the club that takes revenge and not individuals.
I don't have high hopes for Messi, Mbappe and Neymar because I have seen where three of them crashed out in the same champions league.
If they really want to win, they have to work hard for it, big names don't play ball, it is hard work that plays it.

Even though one of the three players is not available in the PSG squad, basically PSG is still a great team which of course always has the chance to achieve good results. But unfortunately, the competition in the Champions League will never be easy and even though PSG has a good squad and team management, that still doesn't guarantee good results either.
Because, if PSG are indeed ready to go further in the Champions League, at least PSG can prove it first in the group phase.

But in reality, even PSG only finished in second place in the final standings of Group H and still lost to Benfica who was in first place.
This result at least provides a little proof that PSG still doesn't fully have the form expected, and when compared to the results they had in Ligue 1, it still cannot be a reference for PSG to get an easy step in the Champions League.

Napoli did have a bad experience when last season they had to be knocked out of the competition due to their own mistakes. They must use it as a whip so they don't repeat the same mistake. AC Milan, who are chasing with a distance of 8 points, also still have time as long as they can play by gaining 3 points from each match, while hoping that Napoli will make the same mistake again as last season. But I don't think Napoli will be stupid enough to miss the golden opportunity that is coming their way now.
The golden opportunity that has been held by Napoli this season will not be let go, because a good opportunity will never come twice at different times. So for this season it is clear that Napoli will really try not to make mistakes like before in order to get the Scudetto this season. There are a lot of teams in Serie A who are trying to catch up on points from Napoli who are currently leading the table and I think Napoli are very much aware of that now and obviously will always avoid making the slightest mistake this season.

Considering this wide points gap then it looks like, I think the other big teams are not going to catch Napoli but they might just be trying to get a better place or position in the standings and of course for the top four. Indeed, of course there is no word of giving up for them, but because it will never be easy for them to always get points in every match, their main target is at least not too far behind.
Anyway, I also totally agree that this season is the season with the best chance for Napoli, so they will certainly make bigger efforts to maintain their dominance this season.

But when it comes to hope, then no matter how many points there are, there is still hope for other big teams under Napoli's position.
But back to their performance, because if later Napoli can still maintain this good performance, it is clear that hope for the big teams below them may be lost because it is too difficult to catch up with points with a gap of around 8-10 points.

Because Saudi Arabia in the previous match was able to beat Argentina with a score of 2-1, so I think playing against Poland even though Poland is the favorite team in this match, but at least I'm sure Saudi Arabia won't lose with a two goal gap. I'm also basically not sure that Poland will win and therefore, in my prediction this match will end in a draw or Poland will win only with a score of 1-0 or 2-1.
Lol, Saudi Arabia failed to convert the penalty into a goal and in the end, Poland is still clean sheets so far and won against Saudi Arabia with a score of 2-0.

I bet on the Asian Handicap option for Saudi Arabia 1.5 which means I still believe Poland will not win with a two goal difference, and the 2-0 defeat that Saudi Arabia received also made my bet lose.
Even though Saudi Arabia's gameplay is still good in this match and it seems like they are just unlucky, because several times they get good opportunities but Saudi Arabia still fails to convert opportunities into goals.

The most difficult thing to win against bayern. Messi has worst history with bayern. messi was always losing in almost all of matches against bayern as bayern known so well about how to prevent messi from getting the ball. City and PSG have spent lots of money since a few years ago but these team are not able to winning the champion league till now which proves money is not a key to win the champion league at this moment. It must be a good team work that will be helping the team a lot to win the trophy.
Even chelsea able to did it for two times.
But you can probably expect something different when PSG take on Bayern Munich in the last 16 of the Champions League this season. PSG are not very Messi focused as we often see at Barcelona, ​​PSG play around Mbappe and Neymar so it doesn't matter if Messi tends to be heavily marked in defence.

PSG needs to prove itself to be able to beat Bayern Munich, but it is very difficult to predict because Bayern Munich's performance when they beat Barcelona was really good. Messi did have an unpleasant experience against Bayern Munich, but he scored goals quite often.

Yes, who knows Messi can beat Bayern Munich in this match, because maybe playing at Barcelona and PSG will give Messi different results. But indeed, whether or not Messi is in the PSG squad, I personally still think that Bayern Munich is still better.
I don't know what are the strong reasons that make me still confident for Bayern Munich to win this match, even though in terms of the quality of the players PSG also has a better squad.

Maybe one of them is because of PSG's performance, which in fact is still difficult to get a win against a weaker team. With this result, when PSG plays against an equally strong team, there will at least be doubts for PSG.
But of course, this match will still be interesting because I'm sure both of them will play very tight with strong pressure from every player. So when the gameplay becomes tighter, of course, it will be difficult for them to get the chance to make a goal.

After the world cup is over, soon the transfer window will also open again for all teams who want to sign new, better players and of course Bayern Munich itself will also see this as a very good opportunity, although it will not immediately let go of the players they still have. need after the world cup. Injuries are a very big barrier for players who are often used in the team so that the team will still make other options in order to support better performance when players who are still relied upon still have to undergo a recovery period.
Bayern Munich, in the transfer window which will open in January next year, of course, will buy several players who they think are very meaningful, for example, Konrad Laimer. Bayern Munich will buy Konrad Laimer, maybe to strengthen the central defense which they think is still easy to break by opposing forces.
Konrad leimer was not the only player that being targeted by bayern and moukoko has also become the main target from bayern. Bayern has been trying to target some players to make sure if it will not have any weakness anymore and bayern can win this title again for this season.
bayern needs to solve some problems in the club. Bayern were actively aiming for the potential players in the bundesliga. that's why the domination by bayern will always continue until the end of season as bayern was buying the key players from another club.

Of course, all teams will also take advantage of the January transfer window to get new players and also to release existing players, I personally believe they will do this in the January transfer window. Also, regarding the current Bayern Munich players, basically if only to win the Bundesliga title the current Bayern Munich squad has no problems.
Unless the reason for recruiting new players is to support their performance in the Champions League, then of course Bayern Munich needs a number of new players to place several positions that look still weak.

I personally don't doubt Bayern Munich's quality when it comes to competition in the Bundesliga title race, because only with the players they have now, the reality is that Bayern Munich can improve.
In fact, now Bayern Munich has returned to the top of the standings only with the existing squad, which, if we judge, still has a bad rating in the midfield. So yes, bringing in new players or not, basically Bayern Munich will still be able to dominate the Bundesliga, I personally am very sure about this consideration.

Arsenal are enjoying great form under Arteta this season and can rest easy at the International Break with five points clear of Man City. Arsenal positive trend gives Man City a new competitor, Arsenal have developed well from previous seasons and they no longer look nervous when dealing with big teams. This season has been very difficult to stop Arsenal in their tracks, they have won 12 of the 14 Premier League games so far, Arteta's side have only drawn once and lost once.
Arteta duties are still very much after the end of the international break, Arsenal need to maintain their performance to break Man City's dominance in the Premier League.

I quite appreciate their current performance, Arteta was able to change Arsenal's game with amazing results. But even so I'm not so sure Arsenal will be able to maintain its position at the top of the standings. Because they have to prove it when they meet Manchester City, if they are able to get past City's obstacles then their motivation will double and the chance to win the championship will be more open.

The changes Arteta has made have been very impressive so far, even though at first he had bad results in a row but over time Arteta was able to prove the progress he made was very good for Arsenal with his young squad. I don't imagine, if this season Arsenal doesn't get good performance like this and also the other teams are experiencing a decline in performance, then it can be a good thing for Manchester City.
But yes, Manchester City still can't progress smoothly to become the top of the Premier League standings this season, because currently there are at least two teams that are experiencing rapid improvement, they are Arsenal and Newcastle.

Even though Newcastle still haven't touched second place, but with a gap of only two points, Manchester City's position is not completely safe.
the competition this season is very interesting because we don't see Chelsea and Liverpool as title contenders, but the contenders in the title race this season are teams that were previously not predicted to be able to compete at the top.

What this performance that richarlison put on today at the world cup,I think I now understand why Conte went all In for him instead of lautaro Martinez, I think Tottenham Hotspur started dropping points when him and kulusevski got injured,after the world cup Tottenham will play better,the amazing thing about his performance against Serbia today was that he kept Gabriel jesus at the bench,even though the arsenal man is in top top form in the premier League.
This is quite reasonable, especially since he is still young now and even though at that time, Lautaro's price was actually not too easy to get.
Kulusevski's absence in midfield has indeed been very influential in the several matches that have been carried out and now it has returned to normal so there is still a good chance for Tottenham, although it is a little difficult now it seems that after this break is over because there will definitely be real surprises in the continuation EPL.

Anyway, even though Richarlison got from Everton that doesn't mean Richarlison is bad either and indeed, at that time Everton's performance was so worrying that some people might assume signing Richarlison was not the right choice. But in reality, Richarlison also scored several times for Tottenham but in the end the goal he scored was disallowed by the referee, be it for offside or something else.
So, Richarlison does have quality and is not as bad as imagined, because maybe it only had an impact on Everton's previous poor performance so that Richarlison was unable to show his good performance.

But over time when Richarlison is in the right team and coach then of course Richarlison will be able to play well, I was also amazed by his performance in the World Cup with impressive goals.
Also, because Neymar is injured, it is possible that in the next match Richarlison will be paired with Gabriel Jesus in the starting line-up.

Right now the Netherlands team has scored the first goal and is taking advantage of the match against Ecuador. If the Netherlands ends with a victory, Qatar will be surely eliminated from the group. But how do the Qatari people in the host country feel? This is a very bad investment for Qatar.

Already, there was a draw in the game. Senegal is in third place with 3 points, while the Netherlands and Ecuador are tied on points. The Netherlands' upcoming encounter will be against the host country, and I predict that they will win. Senegal and Ecuador will play in the crucial and most intense game to decide who moves on to the next round of the competition. A draw in the encounter between Ecuador and Senegal will go in Ecuador's favor; nevertheless, I think Senegal won't be content with a draw and will instead want to win.



Do you predict Qatar will win when playing against the Netherlands? Are you serious?
Even though Qatar wins, in reality there is no more chance for Qatar to qualify, even though Qatar is the host but that doesn't mean the opponent will feel sorry for it and let it win. Because if that happened then it might be called elephant football or there was match fixing or bribes, corruption or whatever cheating was involved, and I don't think that would happen.

I personally really believe that the Netherlands will still win against Qatar and leave Qatar not having any points in this event, that is natural and it is not just about an investment.
If the host country is obligated to win in events like this and no other team is allowed to beat it, then what is the competition for? Losing and winning in a competition is natural, and the defeat that the home team has experienced does not mean that they have suffered the full loss. Because after all, the income they get is not only from team wins, but from the many visitors and other markets where the hosts still have income received.

This will be a good opportunity for Juventus to make sure they move on to the next phase because in the play-off round they will face Nantes, which incidentally this season Nantes is not playing well. Nantes could only finish in second place with 3 wins and 3 defeats by creating 6 goals and conceding 11 times. Even though Juventus are currently in a state that cannot be said to be good, if they are compared to Nantes, of course they are much better.

Nantes itself in Ligue 1 is not a strong team in the title race and in fact, this season Nantes is in 15th position in the Ligue 1 standings. Performance like this is indeed not very good for Nantes who has to play against Juventus which seems when this match is played, the situation or performance of Juventus it's even better.
Because even now, Juventus in Serie A have also managed to return to the top four, I'm sure this factor will certainly improve the morale of the Juventus players.

So yes, I think it is quite clear that Juventus will indeed be the favorites to win and I have no doubt about it and even though the situation and conditions for Juventus are still not fully improved I personally still believe Juventus will beat Nantes.
I'm not sure this is underestimating the opponent or not but what is clear, the situation and conditions of Nantes are much worse than Juventus at this moment so I will remain confident that Juventus will certainly be able to go further in this Europa League.

I think we need to see the debut of the top 16 teams from different leagues to see how good they are in this competition.
Even though so far Napoli has appear quite tough in Serie A, what needs to be considered is that the teams play in the Champions League are the best teams represent their each league. This of course will be very different from Serie A, Napoli will meet the opponent who have never before they found in Serie A
Napoli is a strong competitor in the Champions League this season, usually we will see the same team name, namely Real Madrid, Liverpool, AC Milan, Juventus, Inter Milan and several other names who can always make it to the round of 16 and so on, this makes the Champions League a continues to be interesting because it will see the rotation of the team that will play in this knockout round.
And I think Napoli are quite lucky because in the round of 16 they will play Frankfurt, not another favorite team and this is enough to open their chances of getting to the quarter-finals, it's just that they have to maintain good performance because by continuing to advance in the champions league will make them have quite a lot of matches to live without being able to maintain performance will make them lose both.

Talking about Eintracht Frankfurt, I also think that they cannot be underestimated at all at this moment, because even Eintracht Frankfurt last season managed to get rid of Barcelona in the Europa League. Also, Eintracht Frankfurt started this season in the Bundesliga not so well, but as time goes by Eintracht Frankfurt can get into the top four in the Bundesliga and at least that proves that Eintracht Frankfurt really can't be underestimated this season.
Napoli and Eintracht Frankfurt at this moment are teams that are experiencing an impressive increase in performance, so that any results in this match can still happen.

I mean, even though Napoli is an unbeaten team in Serie A, that still can't guarantee that Napoli will get the convenience to go further in this Champions League.
Therefore, I personally still can't say that Napoli will win. Also, whether or not they have changed after the break, I'm still pretty sure that Eintracht Frankfurt will still provide strong resistance in this match, which means that Napoli and Eintracht Frankfurt will never be easy to get a win at this stage.

I think Betis are really lucky to have Pellegrini as their coach now. Because since he was brought to the job, Betis have become a really consistent team in the La Liga. In the previous season, they were very close to finishing the season in top four but their point losses on the final match weeks cost them the fourth position. They lost it to Sevilla back then. In this season, Betis are again a consistent team fighting for upper positions in the standings.

This time something is different for them as well. Sevilla are far away from this area and they are even under the threat of relegating for now. This might be a chance for Betis to make it to top four. This time they have Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao as different teams fighting for the same goal. But considering last season performances, we might have a similar scenario for those two teams later on. I believe Betis will stay more consistent than them and secure a spot for the Champions League.
Pellegrini is experience coach but he wasn't lucky while train big teams such as Manchester City and Real Madrid because he was sacked from those clubs but when train for mediocre teams Pellegrini can changed those teams to being an dark horses teams who possibly can break the domination from big teams and since 2020 he brought the job to Betis and makes this team can able to finish at top 6 for two seasons in a row even Betis achievement under him also quite good for europa league this season Betis can finish as group champion with unbeatable status and successfully to beat Italian strong team Roma and his highest achievement during with Betis is he can bringing this team to gets Copa Del Rey trophy last season

Yes, it's great what Manuel Pellegrini has done for Betis so far, at least with them being consistent in the top six from season to season, it's also quite impressive. What's more, if Betis can finish in the top four and play in the Champions League, then of course it's a big appreciation for Manuel Pellegrini as an experienced coach.
Yes indeed, Manuel Pellegrini is also not new to La Liga and as you said, that Manuel Pellegrini has coached Real Madrid and Villarreal as well as Malaga before in La Liga. As experience increases for Manuel Pellegrini, at least Betis are lucky because they managed to recruit Manuel Pellegrini to become coach from 2020 and have made a big difference to team performance

Also, for the competition for the top four especially for the remaining two positions for third and fourth place, I think it's a competition for three teams. Because Athletic Bilbao was only in the middle of the standings in previous seasons, of course I would doubt its consistency to compete in the top four.
Atletico, Betis and Sociedad, who from several previous seasons did have a chance to finish in the top four, and because Sevilla are no longer part of the top four competition this season. So maybe I believe that of the three teams, the two of them will be successful teams to finish in third and fourth positions for the final La Liga standings this season.

Here we have to check few things before talking about Allegri and Juventus performance in early rounds of this season they have around 12 injuries which were not allowing them to have their best and things were worst for the team like Juventus which is surely well known by board and all fans but still Allegri done amazing job and keep his teams spirit high and as he has some recovery now they are back in business which is surely masterclass from them with this now they can fight hard for having their best result in this season even they are badly out of the Champions League but hopes high, and they still can do good in this season with their available resources with this all now fans and management is also feeling good.

Yes, we understand the condition of Juventus at that time, but it is sometimes unacceptable for most fans and staff who just want to win every matches. When I read the news about the deadline for Allegri, I thought that Juventus might make another mistake if they really sacked Allegri this season. I remember what AC Milan did, when they were down with Allegri, they sacked him and the downturn was not because Allegri couldn't train well, but Milan hard to buying good players who matched with Allegri strategy. IMO

One thing that must be credited to Allegri is that he kept the confidence to continue coaching despite the dire situation at the time, because there was a lot of pressure from several boards and also a lot of fans about wanting him to replace Allegri with another coach immediately. But according to rumors Juventus are indeed not willing to pay a high price for the sacking of Allegri, so maybe Juventus also can't do much other than continue to give full trust which is still given to Allegri.
Because after all, basically Juventus already has a good squad, it's just that many of Juventus' key players have suffered injuries and maybe, this is also one of the things that keeps Allegri's confidence good to continue coaching Juventus.

With an increase in Juventus' performance like this, at least Napoli, who might previously feel comfortable at the top of the standings, will be wary of him again, because any mistakes made will have a big impact on his position at the top of the standings.
Because being a strong team at the top of the standings is not easy, they have to be consistent to achieve good results in every match, but I don't think Napoli will be easy to drop points this season and this competition is becoming more interesting even though they still have a gap in points which is quite wide.
