Frankfurt certainly don't want to get bad results again and they will try to win again when they host Werder Bremen today. We often see that Frankfurt is always comfortable in the standings like they are now and so far no other team below them has been able to disturb them. But still, getting a win will get them closer to other European competitions and that's why they have to do it every week to be able to immediately catch up with Leipzig.

The difference in points is really big and if Frankfurt could collect 6 points in the previous two matches then they wouldn't need to have as many points difference as they do now. But again, Frankfurt often displays inconsistent performance so that opportunities that they should have secured can simply be lost. Meanwhile, Werder Bremen, who have never tasted victory in their last 5 matches, must be tested again and this time they certainly don't want to continue the bad trend and try to start with a win that they can try. But even if Werder Bremen can hold on to the draw it will be another important point than not having scored any points at all after weeks.

Neymar's main function is actually just as a marketing tool for Al-Hilal and if it is to help the squad achieve good performance it will actually have no effect at all. In my opinion, Neymar is finished and if he is included in the line up it will only make Al-Hilal's game run into problems. Because the axis will be different from before and of course the players will not feel comfortable if they don't comply with Neymar's request.

Everything will change quickly including the coach's strategy if Neymar is on the pitch and we will not see the beautiful game that we usually see at Al-Hilal without Neymar. I think this player is more suited to being an artist and as a football player there are only impressive achievements in the previous few seasons that he can be proud of.

A dramatic win for Chelsea is something rare this season and this time the opponents they defeated must have felt very embarrassed. We know that the results of Chelsea's match against Manchester United are almost unpredictable and we saw that from the start of the match the two teams traded attacks, resulting in so many quick goals being scored. One thing that will be hard to forget is when Manchester United managed to equalize the score so they could turn things around to 2-3 but unfortunately the victory that was in front of their eyes just disappeared.

This was all because Cole Palmer was the most important player in this match for Chelsea and he also recorded a hat trick in this match which made Manchester United go home empty. The score ended 4-3 for Chelsea's victory and I was amazed to see Cole Palmer's movement, who always didn't hesitate in taking the shot. Especially if you look at the last goal he scored in the 90+11 minute, where his hard kick resulted in a deflection that hit McTominay's leg so that the direction of the ball changed and Onana was fooled.

Chelsea can be proud of this victory because they rose two places to 10th position and it seems they still don't want to give up because there is speculation that Chelsea will finish at the bottom of the table if their results continue to decline.

The narrow victory in the away match against Granada made Valencia move up one place to 7th in the standings and closer to one of the European competition zones. I think it was a worthy win, especially since Valencia has made gradual improvements this season and the results are as we can see, they haven't experienced a single decline since the start of the season.

Coach Rubén Baraja seems to be the figure that Valencia needs this season and when compared to previous coaches, we will often see Valencia fighting with other teams at the bottom of the table. To be honest, I have long missed the era of revival of one of the big teams in La Liga and I want to see it go even further next season and be able to compete in the race for the top four in the standings.

It could be said that with Bayern Munich's frequent failures in the domestic league, their chances of winning against Arsenal are decreasing and I think Arsenal with their consistency can bury Bayern Munich's hopes of going further. Of course, the Gunners are very confident with the instability of Bayern Munich so far and they will definitely try as hard as possible to get a win in the first leg.

I know it's not an easy job, especially since the first leg took place at Bayern Munich's home ground. But at least if Arsenal knew the weak points of Bayern Munich's defense then they could steal the aggregate lead first. If this can go well then it is not impossible that Arsenal will break the bad record in history when facing Bayern Munich. It might be a bit naive if we don't discuss this clearly, but Bayern Munich can't do much this season, especially in the Champions League.

This week's opening match will feature a match between two teams in the relegation zone. Salernitana will host Sassuolo in Week 31 and to be honest it is very difficult to predict the result in a match like this. I mean the two teams are under huge pressure to stay in Serie A at the end of the season and if we look at the opportunities more thoroughly it is clear that Sassuolo has a chance to be back in Serie A next season.

Maybe we will bet fully on Sassuolo winning but sometimes the results will not be as easy as we imagine. Sometimes the hosts will always have a way not to stop fighting, especially since one way for Salernitana to stay in Serie A is to beat Sassuolo. I know it's impossible with a 10 point difference from Sassuolo but as long as Salernitana doesn't give up then everything will be worth it. If we look at the odds offered by the bookie, of course it would be tempting to bet fully on Salernitana, but instead of that I would prefer to bet on a draw no bet with slightly lower odds @2.30, just in case the result is a draw.

Reportedly, Real Sociedad is interested in bringing in Arda Guler on loan in the summer. We know that there are times when not getting a lot of playing minutes means a player has to first seek experience outside his club and maybe the offer from Real Sociedad is not too bad. I believe Ancelotti still hopes that Arda Guler will be in Los Blancos' main squad, it's just that the competition for his position is getting thinner every day.

As an AMF, Arda Guler certainly won't be able to replace the roles of Jude Bellingham and Brahim Diaz in the main squad and like it or not he will just wait his turn until Ancelotti brings him in when the team is already far ahead. Things like that will only make his talent disappear slowly and if Arda Guler still wants to survive then he has to be patient in getting his turn. On the other hand, if he can prove a brilliant performance at his temporary club then that could change Ancelotti's mind about including him in the rotation of players.

Well, it's quite difficult when betting on a career at a big club with other great players and maybe Arda Guler will consider this option if the offer from Real Sociedad is already on the table.

In fact, Lens played quite well in those two matches, but unfortunately their readiness cannot be measured with certainty when they were unable to dominate the match. Losing and winning are normal things in football but this should not be continued and will have a bad impact on the team's performance. Maybe Lens should devise a new strategy when facing an equally strong opponent so that he doesn't always lose.

If we look at Lens' remaining match schedule this season, there are not so many strong teams available, only maybe Marseille and Rennes will be tough opponents for them. Moreover, these two teams are eyeing Lens' place at the moment, so the rest of them must be able to anticipate bad things in the match and not lose so easily to this team. Apart from that, they must maximize their full focus on gaining points from weak teams.

I still can't believe Bologna's brilliant performance this season and they have been able to maintain 4th position in the standings from their rivals for quite a long time. Last week's victory against Salernitana also emphasized other teams to always be aware of Bologna's movements and not lose points when facing them.

But the victory against Salernitana is not something to be proud of considering that Salernitana is a team at the bottom of the relegation table and has no chance of surviving in Serie A this season. However, statistically in the last 10 matches Bologna only lost once and that was against the top team, namely Inter. It looks like the winning trend will continue for Bologna because this week they will face another weak team, namely Frosinone, and it is certain that the additional 3 points will be theirs.

Haaland will not be able to move freely if Rudiger is fully guarded during the match. We have often seen this video footage circulating and Rudiger repeatedly holding Haaland tightly so that he cannot carry out dangerous attacks. I agree that currently Phil Foden can be a solution in facing Real Madrid, especially since this player is having his best performance so far.

On the other hand, I actually think otherwise if Real Madrid will just wait for the right momentum to carry out one quick attack to break down Manchester City's defense and that is indeed a very worrying thing. But everyone's opinion is different and whoever is strong in blocking these fast counterattacks will have little chance of winning by carrying out unpredictable attacks.

Even though Girona just got a win against Betis, there is something I regret about this club where they lost their confidence at the end of the season. Maybe those of you who have followed Girona's journey from the start of the season were amazed by what they displayed and it could almost be said that they will win the La Liga title this season.

But it seems that this expectation only lasted for a short time because in an instant Girona had lost quite a lot of points so that they could no longer compete with Real Madrid. Instead, now Girona will only fight with Barcelona for second place first and I hope they can still be relied on in the next few matches towards the end of the season. It's a shame that such a brilliant performance just disappeared and it may take a long time for coach Michel to find the chemistry of his players in the future.

The previous two matches without a win made Lens' position even more threatened and they had to fight harder to secure a place in European competition next season. However, this is not an easy matter because there are three teams who want to immediately shift them from that position and Lens this week must really win again and make a good trend before the season ends.

Luckily, Lens will not face difficult opponents this week and they will face a bottom team, namely Le Havre. This should not be a serious obstacle for Lens to be able to score 3 points and at the same time widen the point difference between the three teams below them. I hope to see Lens can do that and it would be a great achievement if they could get another ticket to the Champions League rather than other European competitions.

Arsenal and Manchester City both won last night's match and as we can see the competition for the EPL title will still continue until it's all over. Arsenal's victory against Luton is very important because with an additional 3 points they will lead the top of the standings and they did it well without any problems.

On the other hand, Manchester City, who hosted Aston Villa at the Etihad Stadium, did not provide free moves and the hosts completely dominated throughout the match. Apart from scoring 4 goals in this match, Manchester City was very happy because Phil Foden scored a hat trick and made him MVP in that match. Aston Villa couldn't do much because they could only reply with one goal from Jhon Duran.

Overall, the competition will still heat up this week, especially since Liverpool still hasn't played a match in Week 30 and it looks like it will be an easy match for Liverpool, especially since the opponent is a weak team like Sheffield. If Liverpool can get full points then they will take over the top of the standings again.

Barcelona doesn't seem to want to spend any more money to sign a new coach and as long as Xavi can still be retained, they will try everything to prevent him from leaving. Barcelona is smart enough to take advantage of the existing situation and they don't want to just let Xavi go and it's better to give him the salary they still have allocated than to hire a new coach whose costs will be much more expensive.

Haaland to Barcelona? I think it will just be a dream that won't come true and considering the value of the clause which is very expensive, I don't think Barcelona can afford to sign him because we all know the existing financial forces will never be able to bring in Haaland. Unless Barcelona is willing to sell some of its players, that could possibly happen. But if that happens then Barcelona will lose several key players. Other problems that are quite easy, such as making Joao Felix's transfer permanent, they can't let alone bring in Haaland, right?

The previous two draws against Al-Ettifaq did not deter them and they instead lost against Al-Fateh. To be honest, through this match Al-Ettifaq could widen the difference in points from Al-Fateh but the opposite happened and instead Al-Fateh managed to shift Al-Ettifaq's position in the standings. It seems that Steven Gerrard's squad is still not consistent enough lately and they often lose points when the opportunity to advance to the top four is there.

However, Al-Ettifaq is a little different from other top Saudi league teams in that even though the depth of their squad is supported by European players, sometimes they can't get the results with certainty. Maybe if they can overcome the existing game with a more appropriate strategy then victory will be easier to achieve. Again, this is coach Steven Gerrard's unsatisfactory job and in the remainder of this season they cannot afford to waste any more points.

It seems like Luton don't want to just give up and don't want to take things for granted, they believe there is still hope of surviving this season and that's why they are fighting as hard as they can even though the results are not always good. They repeatedly challenged the top EPL teams but as we know the results were less than optimal. At least they put up fierce resistance rather than having to resign themselves to a crushing defeat.

Against Arsenal today will be another proving ground for Luton and even though they are not favored at all, they will still try to give their best through their performance. If Luton can make things difficult for Arsenal at home, then Mikel Arteta will really panic considering that the competition at the top can no longer be negotiated. Arsenal must be serious even if their opponent is a weak team in the relegation zone.

Leny Yoro has been linked with Real Madrid for quite some time but it looks like the competition to get the Lille central defender will not be easy because several elite English clubs such as Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea are also in the hunt to secure his contract signature. This certainly doesn't make it easy for Real Madrid to get him this summer and Leny Yoro also said he wants a new challenge.

Real Madrid must be able to convince him to join and considering that Real Madrid currently has not many center back options, Leny Yoro could be the right solution for that. Apart from that, it is possible that Leny Yoro will also be included in the next generation of players for Los Blancos considering that Rudiger and Alaba are also getting older with age. Leny Yoro could be a good duet option with Eder Militao in defense.

Where will Leny Yoro be next season? Is it to Real Madrid or to one of the EPL teams above?

Another surprising thing was Rennes' defeat where they had to submit against Strasbourg last week with a score of 2-0. Even though Rennes had the opportunity to stick to Lens in the standings and they failed after not getting any points in this match. Maybe they shouldn't be careless just because Strasbourg is below them and they certainly couldn't have predicted something like this beforehand.

Apart from that, there are now 3 teams with the same 39 points, namely Marseille, Reims, and including Rennes and this week the three of them will definitely compete with each other to get a place in the European competition at the end of the season. But of course they must at least hope that Lens will get bad results again considering that last week Lens also lost against Lille, which means the current point difference is not too big.

These are tempting odds to bet on Valencia and might give you a bit of an adrenaline rush when playing away to Granada. It's clear what the result will be, but I think there are still doubts that Valencia will have difficulties in this match, especially looking at the odds, the difference is actually not that big.

Valencia's previous two matches also ended unsatisfactorily so it is quite doubtful that they will be able to win this match and even though it is almost certain that Granada will not be able to survive in La Liga next season, what is clear in front of the fans is that they will try to survive so as not to be embarrassing. A draw is quite reasonable but I prefer to bet on the BTTS result (Yes) and I hope Granada can bully Valencia by scoring first.

If you look at the depth of their current squad, Leverkusen actually has no problem with that and I'm sure Xabi Alonso is still very comfortable with his current players. Maybe every change should be made every season considering that its competitors will also make Leverkusen their destination. Becoming Bundesliga champions this season will mean Leverkusen get lots of bonuses and those funds will definitely be spent on new players in the summer.

On the other hand, I agree with you that Bayern Munich must be able to recruit top coaches and rebuild the chemistry between their players which was chaotic during the Thomas Tuchel era. Even though the situation has not yet subsided and considering that Thomas Tuchel will leave at the end of the season, I think the players must be able to survive and continue to adhere to the strategy that Thomas Tuchel has given. The rest they have to start again next season and hope to dominate the Bundesliga again.
