The most probable finale would be between West Ham and Leipzig. And it would be really difficult to predict which one of them would make it to the title. My favourite team among the remaining ones are West Ham now. They don't have much chance to qualify for the Champions League considering their position in the English Premier League now. Because of that, the Europa League title is like their only way of making it to the Champions League groups directly. And I think that they are the most likely team to achieve this goal now. They just need to keep their head down and fight with all they have got.
To be honest, i have west ham as my favorite too; but i must mention that truly i am panicked for westham, They had just a CB play against Arsenal (Dawson) and he even got red carded; the big question is, Will Moyes have a fit CB available for the semifinal clash? This will be crucial to WestHam chances because good defenses win you titles. If westham pull away from the first leg with a draw or victory without a fit CB. It will be europa league greatest escape. What do you think ? |

In my opinion the toughest match for both of them is.....
Mancity vs West Ham
Liverpool vs Tottenham
But any other team can be a threat to them because the English league teams always make it difficult for big teams when points are needed, but this time I think they can try to win it continuously.
If you want Liverpool to win this trophy, then Mancity must make a mistake, draw or lose, Liverpool must win continuously until the end.
On the contrary, i want to disagree. WestHam facing Manchester City in this period where they have only a fit CB is a bad wish; City literally thrashed Watford with 5 goals; and look well on course to get their title once again. Liverpool on the other hand look susceptible to have one or two draw games before the end of the season. I am tipping Manchester City for the league, |

Barcelona are having good possession are trying to find an opening, they are close to find an equaliser but they need to find the winner also in next 45 minutes. Honestly the early goal from Vallecano is putting pressure on Barca. Barca needs to be sharp in next half in order to win this match.
This is the problem with Barcelona in recent times; they hold onto possession and do nothing with it, neither do they create enough chances to even score a goal; instead the opponents deprived of the ball, always win or get a drawn; Can we say Xavi tactics has been found out ? Mid table Vallecano will be looking to close out as victors and earn a bragging rights for their supporters. Can Barcelona turn this around ? Theres 45 minutes left to find out |

Of today's matches, the London derby are the most interesting, Chelsea vs. Arsenal. At stake is not only prestige, but also promotion to the Champions League. Chelsea is very close to this promotion and by winning today she will almost be sure of it. Arsenal are in a bad shape lately, they have unexpectedly lost a few games and today it will also be difficult for them to get any points. It is known, however, that derby has its own rules. I am counting on an interesting match and a lot of goals, I bet over 2.5 goals
I agree with you and i think Chelsea will have a comfortable victory today at home against Arsenal. Arteta has yet again fall out with another captain in Lacazette and it seems he has a big task to force the squad to make a performance. A 3-0 Chelsea win will do justice to the tie |

It's clear that the goal of Erik ten Hag is to build his own empire. This summer, he may bring Antony to Manchester United. Considering the strong competition, the Dutch coach has requested United's hierarchy to speed up the transfer process. Could Antony get more glory at United?
Sadly, Manchester United owners are not one that wants to build an empire, they only want to grow their profits. I am not entirely convinced about Erik ten Hag, but i am trusting that he will be able to get results by building the core of the team around hungry youngsters. Anthony? cdm ? the big question is will mufc owners be sanctioning any purchasE? i don't believe so much in the glazers |

Villareal have a bad performance in the league but they are doing really well in the champions league at the moment
This is why they say that knock out games does not care about injuries, league form or league performances. Any team either great or poor can win a 2 legged ties in the european competition, because all they have to do is be the better team in 180 minutes. Barcelona on the other hand has been having poor performances for about 4-6 games now, but they win because they take their chances; napoli win, galatasarry win, el clasico win, levante win, frankfurt struggled draw; it was evident that barcelona form has dipped. The big question for Xavi now is that, can he turn around this bad form ? |

Napoli vs Roma
Atalanta vs Verona
Its a very big night for Napoli and Roma in the Serie A, as a win for either teams put them in good contention for champions league football next season, while a defeats means there is lots of hardwork towards the end of the season. With Osinhem firing and Abraham also firing, it promises to be a goal fest tonight. A 2-2 draw perhaps ? What are your predictions?

I really wonder what Dortmund need now to achieve a title in the Bundesliga. They just lack consistency now and it is their biggest problem I believe. Normally, they have really capable players but they need to solve this problem one way or another. They can't compete with Bayern Munich hard until the end as long as they show a this level of performance. And it looks like they will lose Haaland too. But with or without him, they are still lacking skills to maintain a good streak for a long time.
I think come Summer, Borussia Dortmund needs to improve their squad depth with better quality players, i say this because this season, their lack of consistency has happened as a result of injuries to their key players at crucials and they have no quality replacement too. If they don't end up selling quality players to Bayern, They can challenge again next season with better requirement strategies |

Villarreal are one of the strongest teams in the UEFA Champion's League this season that's been underrated probably because of the pedigree/successes of their opponents though or maybe because they are not doing so great in the La Liga. People are giving the semifinals tie to Liverpool, Villareal though a big team by their own right but are obviously the underdog when Liverpool is matched with them. Liverpool have to be wary about Villarreal though because they have conveniently knocked out strong teams out of the competition.
Every team that qualifies for the semi-finals is strong. Maybe Villarreal's performance in La Liga is poor. But their performance in the Champions League is good. However, compared to the Liverpool team, Villarreal will be a little behind. Because Liverpool has a lot of star players, which Villarreal does not have. However, Villarreal's match strategy is good. So I think the match between Liverpool and Villarreal will be competitive and enjoyable. When it comes to the champions league, ofcourse there are strong teams but that does not rule over the fact that some teams have an easy run to the semi finals of the champions, if you see Liverpool run of ties to the semi final, you can confirm this statement. Villareal is a tactically disciplined but poor team, and i strongly believe Liverpool will score more goals than them to see the Finals of the champions league. |

I think, Fixing the defense line is the main task that must be done by Ten Hag and maybe he also needs to strengthen Man United's midfield (especially looking for a new defensive midfielder who can play the role of water carrier).
Manchester United defensive frails or problem is not due to the defenders but due to a terrible system. If you play a system that exposes your cb to attacks every 90 seconds, then having the best cbs in the world would not safe you. The area of concern for the Manchester United new gaffa is the midfield players, Norwich turnover mufc midfield line with a single pass each time at the tie against Norwich, which is clearly unacceptable. If i am Ten Hag, focus is on midfield, then a goalscorer. |

Honestly FA cup game looked like a lower league level to be fair. I do not know why I felt that way, I do not know why it felt like both teams played horribly, I am guessing mainly because of expectations. Teams didn't care about this cup as much as they cared about the league or they cared about UCL so in the end the game that I watched, the game that ended with 3-2 which is a lot of goals so I should have been having fun, ended up being a bit boring for me. That's just how I feel though, maybe people had fun watching it.
Now that Liverpool is going ahead, there is a good chance they may end up doing the treble. They need to handle the league part which looks quite difficult, but then they have UCL at which I am guessing finals is guaranteed for them, and FA cup finals left. Like 5-6 more wins and they have three cups.
It is a semi final tie, a anybody qualifies stage of the competition so it was expected that both teams will be very cautious, little chances created; but a good game overall for Tuchel side, who has gotten a 2 goal victory, a clean sheet and a Wembley trip to the finals to face Liverpool. Sometimes in football, the results matter most, not the performance and Chelsea have done exactly that today |

Benzema undoubtedly saved many bet slips today, in which it was bet on Real Madrid. What he did in extra time really lends itself to being one of the best players in the world. Big congratulations to Real Madrid for a beautiful victory and I feel sorry for those who bet on Real and had to be nervous until the end.    Not only did Benzema save betslips, he has kept Real Madrid charge in line and also secured too, as they get to increase their lead and march towards been crowned champions for the season, another comeback victory for Carlo Ancelloti side who desperately needs reinforcement come July. Treble fight is on!!! |

Tottenham Hotspur have a pretty big goal difference compared to Arsenal, so I think Arsenal's chances of being in 4th place this season are very difficult. Arsenal still have games against Manchester United, Chelsea and of course the decisive match against Tottenham Hotspur, this is an important match for both teams to ensure a place in the Champions League next season. Next two match Tottenham Hotspur against with Brentford and Leicester City and I think on both match have chance for Spurs get 6 points.
Truth is it is not looking nice for Arsenal. Arsenal has to get atleast 6 points from Manchester United, Chelsea, and Tottenham itself. While Tottenham has to battle out Liverpool, Leicester and relegation teams. The big winner would have been Manchester United to take the 4th spot. They are clueless and out of form at the moment. My cards are on spurs to get the 4th spot |

Will there be another drama today?
Atletico Madrid hosts Manchester City (0-1) - It is a big tie tonight for Pep boys because they cannot afford to allow Simeone boys score a goal. If Atletico scores first against Citeh; then we are going to witness another defensive shape (haram fotball) from Atletico
Liverpool hosts Benfica (3-1) - Liverpool defense line remains shaky and are only being saved by their excellent attackers. Klopp will be telling the boys to keep shape and contain the pressure to ensure that they do not goof. City or Liverpool? Madrid or Benfica? Who will go through to the semi finals ?

Its half time this champions league night and the odd seems to not be in anyones favor lol. It remains a draw at the Allianz Arena as Villareal continue to hold up tight to their 1 goal advantage against the attacks of Bayern Munich; Meanwhile, Mason mount has given Chelsea a lifeline with his in the first half against Madrid. Who will qualify to the next stage?
Very interesting to watching these match.Chelsea is playing aggressive plan against Real Madrid.1st now Real 3-2 Chelsea, If second half Chelsea can do better something. I hope Chelsea can qualify in next round.Bayern did try to score in 1st half but they didn’t do it.I hope Bayern will win in second half i hope Bayern will be qualify for next round. The second half is live and it will be interesting to see how Ancelotti sorts out the poor first half from the madrid team, Kovacic is doing numbers on them and perhaps it could be time for camavinga to come on or perhaps spread wing play. Bayern munich meanwhile just have to score. Thats the only ticket to the next round |

Check out Osibanjo dey yarn sae em go continue from where Buhari stop during his presidential speech declaration for presidency. That means em go continue from the bad leadership wey em boss give us
Osibanjo speech shame me well well. Na real hell fire this people want to carry us enter o. But it will not work for them this time. Whether Rotimi Amaechi or Tinubu or Osibanjo, e no go work. Buhari go scatter table soon. Una see that video of Tinubu where him talk say he never get any son grown enough to declare? I laugh well. Na something like that I deh like for politics. Bad blood go soon be open between him and Osibanjo. Power tussle within APC don dey build up. Tinubu na very powerful entity on him own, the man practically own Lagos. For Tinubu to get mind tell Buhari say make e handover power to am, that one go tell you say both of them get agreement for back. The kabal way put Buhari for seat and na him turn to chop the national cake. But e no expect say Amaechi go rise fast like this and become Buhari favourite presidency candidate. If PDP fit pass the primaries without internal conflicts I believe say them go win APC because APC don dey get different fractions You guys type in pidgin effortlessly lol, i am impressed. not sure i can emulate that hahah. on the politics scene i think buhari does not care about the emotions of any of ap candidates; he is simply going to choose a consensu candidate and thats it. The kabals? Buhari himself is the kabal, since Kyari died of covid; the kabal ceased to exists; For pdp; theres no internal conflcits; just a diversion tactics; winning incumbent government is hard; from the precedents we have about these guys. lets just say all is well |
