Barcelona so far still looks good after the El Clasico match, because Barcelona can win with a clean sheet after that match. From the two Barcelona home matches against Villarreal and Bilbao with a score of 3-0 and 4-0 can be proof, at least Barcelona is still in a situation that can be controlled.

Although indeed, the pressure for them is always there but with that too, at least Barcelon has been tested to be able to play better in the Champions League with all the strength they have. Because in the next match in La Liga Barcelona will play against Valencia, but I think that match will not be an obstacle for Barcelona to play with all the strength they have in the match against Bayern Munich.

The scenario is that Barcelona must win in the next two matches, the match against Bayern Munich and the last match against Plzen but with a note, Bayern Munich must be able to beat Inter in the last match. Because if the last match between Bayen Munich v Inter ended in a draw, then the two wins that Barcelona got would still not make Barcelona qualify.

Barcelona's current points are 4 points, and if Barcelona can win the remaining two matches, then Barcelona will have a total of 10 points. At the same time, Inter currently have 7 points and will only play against Plzen and of course Inter will win and have 10 points. That would be the same number of points as Barcelona, ​​and Inter only need a draw in their last match against Bayern Munich. But if Bayern Munich can beat Inter, then the next point equal to Barcelona will only be determined by their goal productivity.
But I still don't believe Barcelona will win the match against Bayern Munich, because a draw in this match alone is certain that Barcelona will not be able to qualify.

If I notice that Marseille is indeed difficult to stay consistent from season to season, because they always end the season in a very different position. As happened in the previous four seasons, where Marseille always got bad results after previously successfully ending the season in second place and playing in the Champions League.
If that happens again this season, then surely Marseille cannot regain a place in the Champions League zone, but it would still be good if Marseille can still finish for the Europa League zone. Due to a worse scenario Marseille cannot end the season for next season's European zone tournament.

But basically Marseille could still get a point with a draw but it looks like Marseille don't have enough luck, because when Marseille against a strong team the end result is not with a big score. So yes, Marseille should be better at least for a draw, because then the position will be fine in the standings but the competition will still not be easy.

Against Eintracht Frankfurt is a tough task for Marseille because even, Marseille in the previous home match also lost by Eintracht Frankfurt. Moreover, Eintracht Frankfurt are currently at the bottom of the standings with 4 points, and Eintracht Frankfurt are only 3 points behind leaders Tottenham. That means, Eintracht Frankfurt in the home match this time will not provide a chance for Marseille to hold it.

Because if Eintracht Frankfurt can win away and beat Marseille in the previous match, then of course mathematically Eintracht Frankfurt will also be able to win at home to beat Marseille. Because this is a big chance for Eintracht Frankfurt to overtake them and even, head to head Marseille really can't beat Eintracht Frankfurt at all.

Although in yesterday's match PSV was able to play well even though the result was lost, but that does not mean PSV will be difficult to beat in the next match when PSV plays at home. Because even Bodo/Glimt when playing away against PSV and in fact Bodo/Glimt managed to hold PSV to a draw. Indeed, these results are still not fully a benchmark, but at least because Arseal is also in its best form.
So playing at Philips Stadium is not a barrier for Arsenal not getting points, at least Arsenal can still get a draw or maybe they will still win the match.

Because after all, Arsenal has certainly qualified for the next round but indeed, PSV is the closest team in the standings which of course Arsenal must still have a wide point gap so that there is no chance for PSV to take over the top position.

---

But apart from that match, I think there will be an interesting match and maybe it will be an easy bet for the HJK v Roma match, because Roma have so far only been able to win once when playing against HJK. In this round Roma will play again against HJK, and I think this will be a great opportunity for Roma to be able to win the match at least to still have hope of being runner-up.

Roma should be able to win group C, but in reality Roma looks like a mediocre team to fight just to get a place to qualify. Therefore, in the next two matches Roma are required to win if they really want to qualify from the group stage, and Roma cannot rely on Betis to beat Ludogorets. Because to make their position safer with the points they have, Roma really needs to win the remaining two matches.

Looks like the top position will soon be taken over by the king of Bayern Munich, I don't care which team will be able to hold Union Berlin to a draw and or beat it. Because any team will certainly have a chance for them to beat or hold Union Berlin in the next match because in fact, no one thought that even though Union Berlin was at the top of the standings, they lost by Bochum, the team at the bottom of the standings. So yeah, I really don't believe Union Berlin will be able to maintain its top position in the Bundesliga.

Now the point difference between Union Berlin and Bayern Munich is only one point and of course, it is not difficult for Bayern Munich to continue to put pressure on Union Berlin at the moment. But apart from that I think there is something more interesting, about getting team points in the Bundesliga today because the points seem to be very organized and it can be seen from positions 1 to 8. But actually, from the bottom of the standings in fact their points look very organized and only points or numbers 10, 12 and 13 which are not in the Bundesliga standings at this moment.
But at least it also shows that the Bundesliga this season has become very competitive because their points gap is not too wide, unlike in other leagues which have a gap of 2 to 4 points, but in the current Bundesliga, the average gap is only 1 point.

Napoli really dominated the match and with statistics like that, I can say that Napoli really deserves to win the title this season. Because even though Roma are playing at home but it still doesn't have any impact on their performance because even, Roma did not have a single shot on goal which means Roma are only focused on defending because of the pressure that Napoli continues to put on.

Really didn't expect Napoli to be able to do this kind of gameplay because I think at least Roma can still make goals, even though the result is losing at least Roma in predictions can actually have an attack that can be converted into goals. But the fact is they played very tight and only scored one goal and that way, both of them can indeed play discipline but Napoli can really show the winning mentality that has been formed.

I think as long as they can play well and can make a big contribution to the team, then these players are already great. Because for a higher achievement it can be done in a different way, and past and present situations and conditions will certainly have differences. For example, like Maradona or maybe Pelé who was very successful in his time but in the end, his achievements are only limited to being a legend in the past and this will also continue to run and change over time. But because at this moment Ronaldo is also still playing, of course there will always be comparisons despite the fact, their era will also slowly be replaced by young players who already have a good future now.

By the way, round five will be played tomorrow with the opening match between Salzburg v Chelsea and Sevilla v Copenhagen. The two matches have different situations, because for the match Salzburg v Chelsea they are still competing to qualify for the round of 16 but on the contrary with Sevilla v Copenhagen, they have the same points but they have even been left behind by five points by the team who is in second place. So, I think the match between Salzburg v Chelsea will still be a more interesting opening match because they still have a tight competition in Group E, so they will certainly play with a big target to win and score a lot of goals.

In fact both blunders made by Tottenham players were only made by one player and that was their goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, because the second goal also Hugo Lloris tried to pass the ball but somehow the pass was not perfect which was able to cut off by Newcastle players and also became the second goal for Newcastle. Also, it's not about Tottenham playing badly because indeed, I've said before that their goalkeeper sometimes makes blunders. It happened again in this match, so I'm no longer surprised if their goalkeeper makes another blunder because it seems to have become a common occurrence.

Liverpool have spent a lot of money this season by signing Nunez but unfortunately, Nunez's performance is still not as expected. Also, sometimes every team will indeed play with good gameplay only when playing against a top team and yes, for example like Nottingham can play well against Liverpool as a top team. But when a top team who is having a declining performance like Liverpool, will also play well against a top team whose condition is indeed better than him, for example in the previous match where Liverpool were able to beat Manchester City.

Yes Barcelona are good in this match and indeed, Barcelona have a good record at home at least they have to continue to stick to Real Madrid because if Barcelona can't do that, then their points gap will widen and it's difficult to catch up. Also, even though in this match Bilbao lost but Bilbao are still in sixth place, but currently they have the same points as Villarreal with 18 points. But the determination of which team will take over the top six will not wait long, because in the next match Bilbao will play at home to against Villarreal. Of course, it will be a balanced match between them because I think they have the same quality at this moment, but even so I believe the match will end with a win and not end in a draw result.

Regarding Villarreal's match against Almeria I honestly don't believe Villarreal will win, because Villarreal have lost the first half with a score of 0-1 and in fact, Villarreal's winning goal came in the last minute of the match like 90+ added minutes. I don't know if this is luck or not but indeed, at least Villarreal still kept on trying until the last minute of the match until finally their efforts produced the expected goal. Because basically Villarreal is projected to win, because the odds before the start of the match odds for Villarreal are 1.36 which of course with odds like that Villarreal is required to win in this home match.

Regarding the Betis v Atletico match I personally expected this match to have a lot of goals like four to five goals, but after knowing at half time they were still a goalless draw then of course the hope of having lots of goals would be difficult to happen. But in the second half they could have played better by scoring three goals and I don't think Betis will be able to score because Atletico sometimes have a strong defense so the match may be tough. But in the end even though Betis lost, at least Betis can reduce the defeat and make the final result 1-2 and this is also the first home defeat for Betis.

Newcastle continue to progress so it is not surprising, now Newcastle are in the top four after beating Tottenham. I don't know if it's a fair result or not but I saw Tottenham did not play well in this match and even though Newcastle played away, I saw that Newcastle did play better and were dominant. So the final result for this Newcastle win for me is a decent and fair result for them.

If Newcastle can maintain this kind of performance for the next two games then it will be great. Because after two matches later, and then Newcastle will play at home against Chelsea as a team fighting for the fourth position in the standings. Also, Newcastle really have to watch out because once they have a rich club owner, they seem to have the ability to keep going even though their squad is still in mediocre quality and not as luxurious as other top teams but they can play really well.

Real Madrid is a king who sometimes seems not to have a good chance of reaching the final, but in the end Real Madrid can reach the final without being predictable. But indeed, the teams that can go further in the Champions League are basically great teams, but which team will win the title really can't be predicted just based on their standings in the local league.

Because sometimes, Champions League winners don't have a better place in their respective league standings so yeah, for now I personally can't say for sure which team will win the title. But when it comes to strong teams from their respective leagues, then of course anyone will recognize them as the strongest team in their respective leagues but that still doesn't guarantee they are strong in the Champions League either.

Udinese seems to have found it difficult to maintain their good performance, because after Udinese played against Atalanta and Lazio even though Udinese could hold both teams to a draw but still, Udinese can't guarantee to come back to get full points easily. Because basically Torino is also not a weak opponent or maybe Udinese is just unlucky in this match, because Udinese can have better stats.

Therefore, when Udinese was in the top four, I was still not sure that Udinese would be consistent, because Udinese's case was very different from Napoli and Atalanta. Because the two teams from previous seasons have indeed become teams that can compete in the top five, but for Udinese they were previously not included in the top five competition which of course they do not have enough experience to compete there.

I think Leicester are a very calm team, even though they are bottom of the table but there are no strong rumors about Leicester maybe replacing their coach. Because so far even though Leicester are in the relegation zone, Leicester are very productive in scoring goals and that is also probably what makes Brendan Rodgers calm. Leicester just beat Wolves with a big score of 4-0 and with this victory, Leicester can temporarily get out of the relegation zone. But because they are also very good in attack then I believe Leicester will remain in the Premier League, which means Leicester will not be relegated because they have the ability to guarantee they can score goals in every match and of course that is a good ability for them.

In contrast with Leicester who looked calm by not sacking their coach, because at this moment there was Aston Villa who had just sacked their coach Steven Gerrard but somehow Aston Villa could win even with the score 4-0. Since so far this season the opponent is Brentford they have started the season well and even so, I doubt for Aston Villa to win the match as their newly sacked coach might have a worse impact on their performance. But what happened was that the big win they got was enough to surprise me too, but that doesn't mean I'm surprised because they got the win but because they can win a good score and even with clean sheets.

Apart from those two good moments at this moment we might be a little disappointed by Arsenal's draw, I'm sure I'm not the only one who bets for Arsenal to win. So yes, with this draw result Arsenal destroyed my multi bet and also, is it possible because it was matchday 13 and had a bad effect on many of the favorite teams not getting the result as expected due to bad luck. Even though Arsenal could start the match well as usual with a quick goal which has become their skill so far but unfortunately, Arsenal seemed to be under pressure from Southampton in the second half until Arsenal finally conceded and was no longer able to reply.

The unfortunate or the bad luck is a team that is in the relegation zone, if Bilbao is still in the top ten it is still good for them because Bilbao from season to season has indeed become a team that competes in the top ten. Unless Bilbao are currently in the relegation zone or outside of the top ten, then you can say Bilbao are unlucky or have had bad luck.

But apart from that the coach of Bilbao is Valverde, which we know before that Valverde had coached Barcelona and with that, then of course this match is still not easy for Barcelona. However, since this match will be held at the Camp Nou then of course Barcelona have a greater chance of winning, because basically Barcelona are in their best form this season but they are not lucky enough.

---

But in addition to the match between Barcelona v Bilbao, in a few minutes there will be an exciting match between Betis v Atletico they will compete for the third place and to overtake Real Sociedad which in yesterday's match Real Sociedad lost by Valladolid.

If we take a deeper look at Betis so far this season then we will find that Betis are the only team to have a perfect win for their home matches, they are unbeaten and neither get a draw as they have won all their home matches so far. But Atletico also do not want to lose, because so far this season Atletico are also unbeaten when Atletico play away. Therefore, for me this is a more interesting match than the Barcelona v Bilbao match.

Benfica is a strong team and it is proven that Benfica can hold PSG to two draws with the same score and also, any scenario to get Juventus through to the round of 16 will still have no chance for Juvetnus to qualify. Since there are only two matches left and for example, let's say Juventus can win the remaining two matches (in fact it is an impossible result ) then Juventus will only have a total of 9 points.

Meanwhile PSG and Benfica also still have a schedule to play against Maccabi Haifa, and of course PSG and Benfica will still beat Maccabi Haifa no matter what. therefore, there is no right scenario to make Juventus qualify, because basically PSG and Benfica only need a draw and that is enough for PSG and Benfica to qualify. Although in these two remaining matches PSG and Benfica only get a draw, it means PSG and Benfica will have a total of 10 points. Meanwhile, if Juventus get a win in the two remaining matches, Juventus only has a total of 9 points so Juventus have indeed been eliminated.

Basically Fiorentina is not a weak team at all and even, if we consider the head to head record even though Inter have more wins but the reality is Fiorentina also quite often make matches against Inter for a draw. Also, Inter's performance this season is not yet fully in the form of maximum performance, so of course Fiorentina can match Inter's gameplay. I personally also didn't make a bet for Inter to win and I just chose the bet option for over 2.5 goals, and this match almost ended in a draw.

After all, both will play in Europe in the middle of this week but fortunately, in the Champions League Inter will only play against Plzen which of course Inter can play optimally in this match. Likewise for Fiorentina who will play in the Europa Conference League even though Fiorentina will play against the team at the top of the Basaksehir standings, but the position of Fiorentina's points acquisition is at least safe there. But unfortunately, even though Fiorentina have played well in this match they are still unlucky, because Inter's decisive goal occurred in the final minute of the match even in extra minutes.

---

Even though Napoli are unbeaten but in fact Napoli have also got two draws and also, the home match for Roma will not have a bad impact for Napoli because of the two defeats that Roma have suffered so far and one of them Roma lost at home when playing against Atalanta. Therefore, I think it is natural that the available odds are still around 2.xx because both of them can still be defeated and/or get a draw, meaning that even though Napoli are unbeaten so far, Napoli are not too perfect to win all matches.

But even so, I personally also remain optimistic that Napoli do have a good chance of winning but if the odds don't make us comfortable then betting with the total goal option can also be good. Because both of these teams so far have good productivity, and also so far they have conceded the same number of goals conceded by 9 so far.

The draw almost happened with the score 0-0, because Lens was also just able to score a goal in the 78th minute and at this moment my prediction did not go wrong. Basically, no one dominates this match because of the statistics in the first half which was won by Marseille, and in the second half the statistics were won by Lens and also won for the final result with a score of 0-1. With this result, Lens can really show their consistency to finish in the top three and because they are also the only team that is very good at home, I don't doubt the quality of Lens this season.

This becomes very interesting, because it turns out that this is the third season for Lens to play in Ligue 1, because previously Lens only played in Ligue 2. Factors like this remind me of Union Berlin in the Bundesliga because this season is the fourth season for Union Berlin by becoming a leader standings in the Bundesliga. Indeed, different from Lens, but at least they have had a very good gameplay this season and they can continue to grow well and it can be said that they can grow quickly.

This was a tough match between Chelsea v Manchester United and ended in a 1-1 draw and with this result, Chelsea's efforts to keep clean sheets were finally broken by Casemiro. Also for Manchester United, although they failed to beat the top teams after Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham but at least Manchester United didn't lose against Chelsea. Interesting I think, Erik ten Hag's way to stay firm by punishing Ronaldo, but Manchester United can still play well. Playing against a top team on two occasions like this without including Ronaldo in their squad, Manchester United can really play as a whole team which is certainly a good way Erik ten Hag has applied.

The interesting thing is, if in the match tomorrow Newcastle can beat Tottenham then Chelsea and Manchester United will be overtaken by Newcastle. But yes, that may not happen because Tottenham are great at home, because of the five home matches played by Tottenham so far they have perfectly got all the wins at home. Although in football anything can happen, but if we consider this perfect result for Tottenham then it is certainly difficult for Newcastle to surprise even though Newcastle only targets a draw it seems it is still difficult for Newcastle to make it happen.

It's not only that Real Madrid can maintain its performance the same as last season, but because its rival team is also still not getting their best form and also the condition and situation of the Barcelona team this season has not improved. If a rival team like Bacelona fully returns to their best form and also gets a better situation and condition, then I believe Real Madrid will be difficult to be at their best this season but then again. If they only maintain their performance like last season, then no progress has been made, so the thing that makes Real Madrid still look strong this season is because the other teams are still in a difficult situation.

This can be seen at least from today's opponent Sevilla, if you also realize that Sevilla during the previous few seasons had even become a threat in the title race. But this season Sevilla is only in the standings which is not in a good position and with that, of course, Real Madrid's chance to win in this match is also very likely to happen.

The 2-0 score that Bayern Munich got in the first half in the end was also the final score for Bayern Munich's victory, although I also expected a bigger score but we also have to admit that Hoffenheim are not a weak team at all. Considering Bayern Munich's performance so far this season and only winning 2-0 against Hoffenheim, I think it's good enough because the odds available before the start of the Bayern Munich match are 1.57. So yes, this victory is enough for them to keep their hopes up to be able to take over the top position as time goes by.

Regarding Dortmund this is the expected result because Stuttgart has not been so strong this season and because of the other match between Leverkusen which drew against Wolfsburg, it made Leverkusen's position up and Stuttgart down and in the relegation zone for the time being. The league is still long and the competition is still very interesting so far, because so far this season no team has had a perfect result with a win without defeat. Because of the top position that Bayern Munich no longer has, it makes the Bundesliga this season more competitive compared to previous seasons.

Liverpool are a true inconsistent team, and I'm not wrong to say that Liverpool this season has been difficult to be consistent to get their best form again. Although previously Liverpool won big in the Champions League beating Rangers with a score of 7-1 and then Liverpool managed to beat Manchester City 1-0, but actually they are still an unstable team. Also, I once said it was difficult for Liverpool to get into the top four and difficult for Liverpool to consistently pick up points this season and the facts are true, and even Liverpool have just lost by Nottingham, whereas Liverpool are winning in statistics.

Next up is about Manchester City which doesn't seem to be getting the result as expected, because its opponent Brighton lately is difficult to score but somehow against Manchester City in the end Brighton can score. Indeed, it's not a problem because Manchester City's position is also still winning 2-1, but I expect Manchester City to win by at least two goals difference. If 2-1 was the final result for them, then Liverpool and Manchester City managed to make my bet lose.
