Lorient failed to overtake Paris Saint Germain at the top of the standings after they failed to get a win after being held to a draw by Reims. It was surprising when they had to achieve this draw with an opponent that is arguably not very strong, in fact they failed to get a win with Reims only playing with 10 men at the start of the second half. Statistically also Reims can match the game from Lorient. I didn't expect this result.

Barcelona's chances are on the edge, the scenario for Barcelona to qualify for the next round requires the help of Victoria Plenz, and luck. but it seems difficult for Plenz to hold Inter Milan to a draw, especially in the match Inter will be the home team.
not much can be expected from Barcelona, but at least they have to win the game when they host Bayern Munich at Camp Nou. at least, in that game they will bet prestige.
even if they fail in the champions league, I'm not sure Xavi's attention will be on the Europa league competition. however, more to win the domestic league.
It's better to fight alone than to have to determine the fate of the other team's match results, that sounds sad. Yes, that scenario is not easy for Barcelona with Viktoria Plzen's opponent being Inter Milan. They will also still face Bayern Munich which will surely be a tough game for them to win. Barcelona's meeting record with Bayern Munich is also not good, they always struggle and lose every time they meet. |

Leeds v Arsenal I believe it will be an absolute win for Arsenal, the odds are good @1.65 which is not too low either. I have no reason for Arsenal not to win the match because their performance so far has been very good, and also with a head to head record where Arsenal have dominated the win. So yes, I'm very confident with Arsenal now that they will continue their good trend to maintain their position because they are only one point away from Manchester City. But today Manchester City will play away against Liverpool, even so Manchester City is projected to win but if not win then it will make a pretty good points gap for Arsenal.
Leeds have a bad record in their last 5 matches in the Premier League compared to arsenal which recorded 4 wins and only one defeat they received, coupled with their poor record every time they met Arsenal. There is no doubt that this will be an absolute win for Arsenal. There was a problem so the match had to be postponed, according to some news circulating there was a technical problem that forced the match to be postponed for a while. |

Seeing the match last season, Freiburg was one of the clubs that managed to hold back Bayern's dominance at that time with a score of 2-2 in the first match although for the second meeting they failed to do so because they had to lose by a narrow score.
Right now Freiburg want to make this at least a draw even if it's difficult.
I personally won't decide who wins for now because both clubs still have a chance even though Bayern are bigger but I feel in this match both teams can score goals if you look at their current productivity.
Talking about goal productivity, Bayern Munich is actually better than Freiburg. They have recorded 25 goals from 9 matches, while Freiburg scored 14 goals, so it is quite clear that Bayern Munich are better in terms of goal productivity. Meanwhile, if you look at their defense, they are equally strong because they both conceded 8 goals. I'd rather see how their defensive power works in this match. |

Juventus and Torino are currently in almost the same form as they are having an unfavorable season for them and from the nine matches they played in Serie A the points between the two teams are not much different where Juventus are in eighth place and Torino are in tenth standings, appear with a less consistent performance then there is a possibility that they will draw in this meeting even though Torino are playing at home but that does not make them superior in this match.
Juventus have a better team and experience than Torino and I prefer Juventus as the winner of this match over Torino because for sure they get it, If Juventus don't get a win from Torino it will make them very ashamed to lose to a team like Torino and that means Juventus are not ready to contribute to this league and the coach will be under a lot of pressure. I don't trust Juventus enough now, even though in the end they had to draw or even lose because their performance was so bad. But for sure they want to do their best in this match, at least a win will increase their confidence for the next match. I can only hope that they will achieve that and soon recover from the bad streak they have achieved. |

Tottenham is the main favorite in this match and they need the win if thy want to continue to fight really hard for the title. Everton is currently in the middle of the table and can surprise sometimes the big teams,but i always see a low number of goals especially when these two teams are playing,so the result may end 1-0 for Tottenham . The most important match of today will undoubtedly be the match between Tottenham and Everton. Tottenham is favourite at home, they are not losing a game easily at White Hart Lane. Everton is far from its former form this year, while Tottenham is in great form. Tottenham is also doing well in European cups. Today Kane and Son will score goals again and Tottenham will win. Richarlison and Kulusevski may also contribute to scoring. If Everton scores, I say over 2.5 goals, but if Tottenham closes their goal, this bet can be risked. Maybe it's better to stick to side bets this time. It was an unbalanced game so Tottenham should have easily beaten Everton and ended the game quickly. Everton can be said to be good defensively but Tottenham are also very good in attack. I see Everton will be very difficult to build an attack and to be honest I don't really believe that Everton will be able to steal goals from Tottenham. |

Well, Barcelona still has a chance of getting out of the group. Now, however, not everything depends on Barcelona and we have to rely on Inter, but theoretically Inter should not lose, and Barcelona will try to win. Therefore, leaving the group from the 2nd place is still quite real.
Hmm for me the chances of Barcelona advancing to the knockout stage now are slim to none to be honest. If i am not mistaken then Barcelona would need to win both of their matches against Pilzen and Bayern Munich while Inter is not allowed to get more than 3 points out of the next two games and given the fact that Inter is also still playing against Pilzen. Also Inter is playing at home against Pilzen which is another advantage for them, so i heavily doubt that Inter will not win that game and if they do that then there is nothing that Barcelona can do anymore to overtake them as they have lost the direct comparison with Inter. Indeed football always gives unexpected surprises, but now we have to be realistic with what they will face in the future. Inter Milan is very likely to win 3 points, but I doubt Barcelona will get full points from 2 games, especially against Bayern Munich. The draw in yesterday's match made the situation even more difficult for Barcelona, and it looks like we will see them in the Europa League. |

Well I think I've already said this in other threads, but for me the Mbappé thing is mere immaturity, he always wants to be the center of attention, I can't deny that his technique is very good, but if we compare Messi and Mbappé, obviously Messi is a great Lord and seen as one of the great masters of football and that we have the opportunity to see him play, this is something that Mbappé does not understand, also for me Mbappé is not such a good player, for me the Norwegian is far superior to him, the Viking Haaland, so I think that not even Real Madrid will want Mbappé in their ranks, and for the same reason, because no player should be above a team.
Mbappe is not mature yet. He has got the greatest legend of this era Messi as his teammate. He could have become more experienced with the help of Messi. But Mbappe is stubborn, and always thinks himself great. And always wants to be at the center of the attraction. But he must realize that the squad has legendary players like Messi and Ramos. And all cine players should be respected. We saw Messi, he always respected his teammates. If Mbappe can change his character, he will soon be lost. I don't know what's going on in Mbappe's mind so he always acts like that. If he can do better then I'm sure he will grow even better. Because if I look at players his age, everything is normal. This is probably due to the privileges he got at Paris Saint Germain. I agree that if he's still acting like that and doesn't want to change, then sooner or later he'll go downhill. |

Barcelona will try to continue to perform optimally in La Liga to keep their chances open. El Clasico is a big game for both clubs, Madrid and Barcelona will try to give their best to beat each other. It is very difficult to make predictions in El Clasico this time, because the two teams are almost equal in strength, but if you judge from the point of view of the main players who are injured and the advantage of playing at home, Madrid have a slightly greater chance than Barcelona.
Barcelona are in deep trouble right now. Could not win against Inter Milan in the Champions League. So it is very difficult for them to qualify for the knock out round. They will face several strong teams in La Liga consistently. Barcelona have to win all the matches if they want to be at the top of the points table. El Clasico is very difficult to predict. Both Barca and Madrid have strong squads and consistent performances. So we have to be ready for any surprises. That's how it should be, because it's a big 2 team game and it's the biggest derby game. The meeting of these two teams is always eagerly awaited by many people and now we will soon see the match. Real Madrid has a slight advantage as Barcelona will be without some important names, but that is no guarantee that they will win the game. I can't wait to watch this match. |

Schalke vs Hoffenheim that both of teams had the same mission that back to winning track after 3 consecutive failed to win but away team has slightly better because at least Hoffenheim only experience to lose once from 4 matches and head to head statistics showed both of them had equal records because they can beat each other but i am quite worried about Hoffenheim away matches records because they seems hard to win and for this match i think the possibilities to ended with draw results is quite high considering from Hoffenheim away matches results that they can able to get draw results several times
But with Schalke's situation I doubt they will be able to hold off Hoffenheim even though they have a pretty good record when these two meet. Schalke's 3 consecutive defeats prove that they will not be ready to face this match even though it will be a home game for them. I will bet on Hoffenheim's win in this match to reduce the risk. |

Barcelona vs Bayern Munich, the winning opportunity may be 50:50. But considering the current performance of Barcelona, I am pessimistic that Barcelona can win this match, especially if Bayern Munich play with all their key players. The very possible result is a draw, I guess the final score maybe 2-2.
Not trying to portray Barcelona as a team to beat, but Bayern Munich this are utterly shit themselves, and their performance even in the Bundesliga is more than enough to buttress my point, so getting a win against Bayern for Barcelona shouldn't much of an uphill battle, because even despite losing the first leg, Barcelona were pretty much the better side, and Barcelona chances of qualifying doesn't solely depends on getting a win in their next two fixtures, but rather hoping Inter slips in both of their and that's also highly improbable. Barcelona's chances are slim, they not only have to wipe out the remaining matches with a win, but also their rivals have to be unable to pick up points in their match. They also have to face an opponent who always makes it difficult for them every time they meet, Bayern Munich. I am pessimistic that Barcelona will be able to get away from this difficult period, and they must be willing to lose the Champions League this season. |

Changing coaches may be a major problem because they do not match the strategy given by the new coach which ultimately makes the players play not according to the rules and not according to the instructions or directions from the coach so that the lack of teamwork that ultimately makes Juventus often get a very embarrassing defeat. Usually Juventus will follow the movement of PSG and match their game but it seems this season they are not able to do that.
Juventus need to learn from Atalanta, because Atalanta have kept Gasperini since 2016 both under difficult circumstances and when they enjoyed the euphoria of playing superbly in the UCL and snatching 3rd place in Serie A in several seasons. Sometimes patience will pay off. Likewise with AC Milan, although Pioli is not considered to be successful in giving the title, in fact he can prove it. Juventus are not alone having a difficult season, we can see the Premier League where the big teams are in difficult circumstances. Even Manchester United have felt this way for years even worse than what Juventus is experiencing now. I think they have to prepare for the future, they have to start by regenerating the players. Because what I see they are recruiting more players who have lost their golden age. |

Liverpool front line this season has greatly decreased in goal productivity where Mohamed Salah, Firmino and Nunez have not found their good performances. Liverpool previously lost to Arsenal which made them really thrown out of the title race this season. Nunez found it difficult to find his best form in almost a few games in his first season with Liverpool. kloop is a great coach he will be able to make liverpool back to the top 4 in the next match, Today liverpool will face Rangers in the 4th round of the group stage and I believe liverpool will easily win this match.
Usually last season Mohamed Salah impressed many spectators, but his performance this season has decreased, maybe his condition is not good or maybe it is also affected by getting older so that the performance seems to be decreasing, Hopefully at the end of the season there will be a surprise from the Liverpool team. A player's ups and downs is something we usually see, but at Liverpool they went downhill at the same time, that's what makes them a mess now. Not only in attack, but also in defense they do the same. How easily they are penetrated by the opponent's attacker. They have a lot of gaps that make it easier for opponents to move freely. I even saw that all of them couldn't perform at their best. |

However, I predict Union Berlin to win against Dortmund. Because comparing the performance of the recent matches, the performance of Union Berlin seems stable compared to Dortmund. If Berlin's defenders don't make any mistakes, they will have no problem beating Dortmund. I am willing to bet Union Berlin to win.
Without doubt, Union Berlin's performance this season have been outstanding. They so far won 6 out of the 9 games they have played. While, their match between Dortmund will be an interesting one. Union Berlin have high chances of winning, Although, it quite certain that it won't be an easy winning. But, I will like to see Union Berlin win inorder for them to maintain occupying the first position on the standings. I also want Union Berlin to win this match. I want to keep them in the first place, because it's boring to see Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund always in that order. But it's true that this match is not going to be an easy match like their previous match, the team they will face today is one of the teams that dominates in the Bundesliga despite always being behind Bayern Munich. |

Juventus loss 2-0 from Maccabi Haifa and if score until finale whistle absolutely almost close chance for qualifying to next round, most bored with Juventus games play, not attractive for scoring goals and seems Allegri adopt with defensive games play. Left 2 goals and not trying how to build fast counter attack and most likely playing the ball in their defense area.
Become the era for Alegri with Juventus if Maccabi Haifa can lead 2-0 until match ended because Juventus won 1 of 4 games in Champion League.
Laugh out loud. Allegri will be under a lot of pressure after this game. They lose, yes it will provide a very big opportunity for Paris Saint Germain and Benfica. And I say goodbye to Juventus in this Champions League. Paris Saint Germain and Benfica only need 3 more points to ensure qualification to the next phase. Allegri's strategy is very boring and nothing changes, they buried their own hopes with a game like that. |

I think this is just a misunderstanding, Galtier has explained to the media that Ramos didn't mean to insult the referee, this was just a matter of language
The decision taken by the referee looked very rushed, fortunately PSG was not defeated by Reims because they only played with 10 colors, if not then lorient would be at the top of the standings
In order to prove that Ramos insulted the referee or not, I think it is necessary to involve an expert in reading mouth movements like what happened to Materazzi and Zidane in the 2006 world cup. Galtier has taken a wise move by defending his players although it is not yet known what exactly came out of Ramos mouth. The language barrier became the right reason for Galtier to explain the case that happened to Ramos to the media crew. But Ramos red card cost PSG a lot as they failed to get full points from a team that should be very easy to beat. You are right that one way to prove it is to ask the experts. Because if you ask them yourself, of course they will defend themselves from each side. However, if what Galtier said is true as what happened on the field, it means that the referee's decision was really too fast and made one side lose, in this case Paris Saint Germant. But on the other hand, it's difficult for the referee on the pitch because he has to make decisions. |

Benfica won this afternoon against PSG in the Youth League, by 3-2. Is this a promising result for tonight?
Taking into account that Messi will not play, and the general performance of Benfica in the previous game.
Even if Messi is not present in this match, I think PSG will win. PSG drew 1-1 in the away match. Benfica's performance was good enough. But they will not make mistakes in home matches. But if Mbappe can't adapt himself to Neymar then it will be very difficult to win this match. The rivalry between Mbappe and Neymar is quite visible. Galtier have to apply a new match strategy today. And Neymar and Mbappe must play well. Then PSG will be able to win against Benfica. The problem at Paris Saint Germain is that the problems between the players are not over. Mbappe is the cause, they won't be better off if they continue like this even bad things might hit them. Messi and Neymar have got their chemistry, but Mbappe is still showing an attitude he shouldn't have as a team. Should be with the position he is now, he could show a better attitude. |

Union Berlin looks set to win this week's match. The reason is that they will have a similar opponent, namely Stuttgart who are now in 16th position without a win though. It was an easy one for those with Stuttgart looks like that. Even though it's an away game but I see an easy win for Union Berlin. Moreover, they were closer to their competitors, so they should not lose points. If they lose points then their position will be shifted this week.

Especially for this season I rule out Head to Head between the two teams, because Juventus have not performed consistently this season. This match will be held at Milan headquarters, of course it will be very difficult for Juventus who are not consistently able to get points at the San Siro. Milan who acts as the host, will take advantage of this moment to get full points to re-enter the top four, I predict this match will be won by Milan with a narrow score of 2-1.
Not only Juventus because AC Milan is also having a slightly difficult season this season after successfully winning Serie A last season. The only difference is that AC Milan is slightly better than Juventus, that's all. Another advantage of AC Milan as you said that they will play at Sa Siro which is their home ground. The absence of several Juventus players may also be an advantage for AC Milan. |

It is going to be a tough game for Tottenham because they sure as hell need all three points after losing last to the gunners. Kane and Son combo should yield the much needed goal or assist. In other matches however, I see an easy win for Manchester city , Chelsea will have a tough one, if they are not too careful. The book makers favor these three teams. A win or draw for Chelsea, a win with above >2.5 for Manchester city and a win or draw for Tottenham hotspurs.
It will be very difficult for Tottenham, and moreover, it seems to me that Brighton will not lose today, a victory is also very important for them, and besides, at the Amex Stadium, Brighton has not yet suffered a single defeat in the Premier League this season. Chelsea seem to have recovered and are playing well, so they should beat the Wolves. But Southampton is not always a very easy opponent for City, although they are now in decline, they lost three matches in a row, not from the strongest rivals, so they will not be able to create big problems for City today. Brighton was unexpectedly able to play this well, and they are perched in the top 4 of the standings. Of course it's not an easy game for Tottenham because they have to play at Brighton too. Tottenham can't expect Son and Kane to be the difference, as Brighton will also be aware of the capabilities of these two players and will try to stop their moves. If Brighton manages to stop them, it's not impossible that they will lose this match. |
