look, after the results of the bookmarkers I too now begin to think so
maybe there are some surprises in store for us, but basically the chances that Atletico will win are basic compared to that Manchester will win

i hope we have a big surprise Tongue
Not sure there will be a surprise from Atletico though indeed, these two teams or especially Atletico are not a weak team. But here Manchester City prioritizes the UCL title, it seems that victory is the result that will certainly be obtained. But if we consider their focus on the local league then at least it will disturb their focus in the UCL a bit, but as a big team I believe Manchester City will be able to share their focus and rotate players well.

This game between Manchester United and Leicester City I don't expect much from the both teams, because of the both teams somehow has the same strengths of football and I see the both teams not consistent in their performance.  The game may likely end with a draw or any of the team may win with a different of one goal.  I really if Manchester United can defeat Leicester City.

Man Utd really are not a good team this year but Leicester are not performing well at all, there are rumours that Brendan Rodgers will lose his job in the summer & it wouldn’t surprise me. Man United should have more than enough to get 3 points here.
It would be a shame if Leicester really would sack Brendan Rodgers because in my view Leicester are not a big team that should be at the top, so with Brendan Rodgers being able to keep Leicester in the middle of the table I think that would be enough. The Leicester board have to realize if they want to be a team in the title race, they need a lot of money now, look how Newcastle have gotten a boost after becoming the richest team at the moment. But speaking of the match between Manchester United v Leicester, I personally will still choose Manchester United because obviously, they have better quality players and also that Manchester United is not the mediocre of the team so yes, Manchester United's chance to win is still there in this match.

Barcelona are strong enough to reach the Europa League championship right now. Their current level of effort is very well now. But they have played a little different in the Europa League so far. I just would like to see their La Liga performance in the remaining rounds of the tournament. Because Barcelona just tear their opponents apart one by one there. If they make the same effort, then they are definitely going to be very close to the championship already now. Otherwise, they might be eliminated by a solid team.

I agree. A few weeks ago I wouldn't have thought they could even make the quarterfinals of the EL, but Xavi has molded the team back into a team that could compete for titles again at record speed. If Barca were still in the CL, I would even trust them to make the final, maybe even win it. If the team continues to develop and strengthen well for next season, Barca can be among the top teams in the CL again next year.
No, I think it's quite difficult to return to being the strongest team in Europe, especially in the UCL, Barcelona still needs time for that. Even though Xavi seems very promising a better future but still, Xavi has not fully faced getting a tougher challenge like against Manchester City under Pep or other teams that have more experienced and great coaches than him. So yes, for now Barcelona does have a big chance to be the winner of the Europa League title, and if Barcelona can be consistent then the La Liga title next season will be very close but for the UCL title I still doubt it.

The Spezia vs Venezia match will be the first Serie A match this week. Both teams are still trying hard to stay away from the danger zone. Especially for Venice, which is still in the relegation zone. 3 points adrift of the safety zone currently occupied by Cagliari. Meanwhile Spezia is now more relieved because their points are quite far apart. But they must still struggle to stay further away from the danger zone.
Considering the relegation team's performance it looks like the bottom three teams at the moment are Venezia, Genoa and Salernitana. It seems they no longer have any hope of staying in Serie A next season, although this match is a good opportunity for Venezia to get points but still, the result is still not enough for Venezia to be free from the relegation zone. So yes, I personally still choose Spezia to win, but it's also possible the match will end in a draw but that still won't change their position.

Newcastle's target this season to get out of the relegation zone has been achieved, even the difference between Newcastle and the relegated
team is quite far. This means that the possibility of Newcastle will survive in the Premier League is very large, next Newcastle will face Tottenham.
And I admit Tottenham are still too strong for Newcastle to beat, so it's clear my prediction is to choose Tottenham as favourites. Moreover,
Tottenham must win, in order to shift the position of Arsenal in the order of 4, this will make Tottenham players more motivated to beat Newcastle.
They're pretty safe now when it comes to points and this is a good thing because it would be really funny if a rich club played in the lower tiers lol.
their target like this now away from the relegation zone isn't too bad and can be said to be quite successful but the last two defeats have kept them stuck now, losing important players like Trippier has left them holed up again in their defensive area which has been quite good in some games when there is Trippier there
Tottenham in their last two matches got wins and even, Tottenham can win at least by two goals difference. Also, the opponent he beat was arguably better than Newcastle so yes, it is very likely that Tottenham will win this match. Newcastle basically still doesn't guarantee a strong game because even Lampard can give Everton a win in the second match even though he initially lost but with the squad they have, Lampard is still able to beat Newcastle. Therefore, Tottenham who have a more experienced coach, it is very possible for Conte to be able to beat Newcastle with his strategy.

Union Berlin will host Koln  tomorrow. Both teams are evenly matched and have almost the same number of points in the standings, but Koln need to win this game to try and qualify for the Eurocup zone. But Koln have not been playing well away recently, so it's going to be a tough game.
Even though Koln can win the match but still, it is still difficult for Koln to end the season to get a european ticket. Koln has a difference of 4 points with the team above that at least for the qualifying ticket for the Europa Conference League but even so, if I consider from recent results or at least in the last 5 matches Koln has a chance to win or draw. Union Berlin got poor results in their last 3 matches and also, 2 points difference looks like it will make Koln to have a big effort not to drop points because it will make his position taken over.

Inter lost a lot of points and I think their chances of becoming champions are very slim now. The championship will be decided between Milan and Napoli. At the moment, I think Milan will have more chances.
The teams that Napoli will play against are a little stronger, and they are 3 points behind their opponents. So Milan is in a slightly better shape Smiley
I think if Napoli lose the next match against Atalanta and then Milan can get full points, maybe Milan will be able to defend its position even better. Of course, Milan will not repeat the same mistakes as in the previous season, until in the end Inter won the Scudetto. Now Milan's chances of winning the scudetto are very close so yes, I don't think Milan will repeat the same mistake and that way Milan will definitely win the title this season.
7430  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 31, 2022, 10:27:30 AM
But regarding the next match for Milan, the calculation on paper of course Milan will win. Not a good reason for Milan to repeat the same defeat as before, with Milan currently leading the table then of course they have to win the match.
Milan should win against Bologna, especially when potentially Napoli and Inter could lose points. Milan's motivation will be much higher this match as Bologna is no longer fighting for anything this season. For Milan, the most important segment of the championship is ahead, decisive matches and the opportunity to win such a long-awaited Scudetto.

Everyone is expecting that Milan should grab 3 points from Bologna. Bologna has not done well at anytime since the season began and I am not seeing them do well any moment from now. Again, they are not close to Europa spot and at the same time they are not fighting to escape relegation. So it is correct to say  that Bologna are actually fighting for nothing. So they will not have the motivations to fight Milan. I am seeing a 3:1 win in favour of Milan.
Yes, therefore victory should have been obtained by Milan, because there is no good reason for Milan to be difficult to win. Because even head to head Bologna really didn't have a chance to just hold a draw let alone win. So yes, winning with clean sheets is a possible result for Milan, because from the previous three matches Bologna really couldn't score.

Obviously, I agree with you. Barcelona is going to be the favorite to win the Europa League now because they have shown promises. I think that team and the players are starting to believe in themselves a lot more and get back the actual chemistry. That is what made the difference. I believe that the Barcelona we are watching now is very much capable of winning the Europa League title and also doing very well in the next season in La Liga.
Barcelona is unstoppable this season. Although, they started with a poor start this season, I believe Barcelona when they humiliated real Madrid the Santiago Bernebeu. Xavi's tactics in football currently is recalcitrant to any team they played. Catalans are unbeaten and are favorite to win the Europa league title this season. Xavi's did some Excellent improvement in the team when he signed new players into the team. Players like Pierre aubameyang, Adama traore, ferran Torres, Memphis Depay, Eric Garcia. All these players are in their best form with some additional players from the Young academy. Pedri is believe to be the next Leo Messi, after his wonderfull Skills dispute in the game against Galatasaray in Europa league. They are expected to end this season in a beautiful styles and lift the Europa title.
Many have just admitted that Xavi succeeded after beating Madrid 4-0, while I personally have admitted that Xavi succeeded after bringing Barcelona to the top 4 of the La Liga standings at that time. So, with Barcelona having success here in the Europa League being part of this quarter-final stage, that's basically something for sure. But indeed, because of the big victory that Barcelona got when playing against Madrid, then at least it is a guarantee that Barcelona has a great chance to win the Europa League title this season.

Leipzig team are a big obstacle for Dortmund next time in the league. Because Leipzig have improved their form a great deal recently. Dortmund are still not a stable team at all. On the other hand, they are one of the best teams in home games in the Bundesliga. They won 11 games and lost 2. But the bookmakers think that they are not a big favourite here. The odds are like this: Dortmund: 2.37, Leipzig 2.75. This game is likely to end up with a draw too. But hopefully Dortmund win and maintain their claim for the championship.
We do not deny that Leipzig is a big problem for Borussia Dortmund who are pumping their points to catch up with Bayern Munich. You are right, that Leipzig is a team that is on a positive note and that makes them a big threat to other teams who are fighting for the best position in the table. It will not be easy for Borussia Dortmund to beat this team.
Even the record of winning and drawing in their last 5 matches is the same, 3 wins and 2 draws, so there is no threat from Leipzig for Dortmund. Not only that, Leipzig, who will play away, doesn't seem to have a chance to beat Dortmund as the second best team when playing at home. As for Leipzig being ranked 7th in their away match record, in that consideration it is clear that Dortmund have a higher chance of winning.

Man City remains the favorite for me to win the title. In the end, they are now just ahead of Liverpool. Liverpool have been doing better in recent games and have more convincing. But City have also had a streak this season, winning 12 consecutive times after their lackluster start. Then suddenly they were on top. If City plays like a machine, it's hard to play against it. Liverpool also has no chance. But City have been vulnerable this season a few times already.
I decently agree with you, Manchester city to me is one one of the strongest team in the world of football, their pattern of play is spectacular. They hardly lose points, the team is well arrange and they also believed in team work. With their recent performance I still have no doubts they can win the title.

Many people think that Manchester City is the favourite, but I think we will see a very competitive game and Manchester City will not win this game comfortably. I expect this match to end in a draw. It will not be a surprise for me to see such a result, I feel that Manchester City cannot win this match. Even Liverpool can win, they've played very well in the last few weeks Smiley
Liverpool's internal situation seems to be rocking after Salah asked for a raise, this will be the start for other players like Mane who will also do the same. What's more, the international rivalry between Salah and Mane is unlikely to make them comfortable staying in the same team. This is of course the very opposite of their current main rivals, Manchester City are still in a completely better situation and also, even though their coaches are both great but still Pep is above Klopp. So in this case, I personally believe that Manchester City will still win the title this season, even though the match against Liverpool will be a draw, Manchester City will still be at the top of the standings.

I don’t know if Zidane will accept the job because he loves to have complete authority at the club, but at PSG that won’t really be possible. Lastly I’m not sure if he would really like to coach Messi who’s been his arch rival for a long time now?, hence for these reasons I feel that Zidane won’t coach PSG.
Rumors of a change of a coach are being blown from PSG, reportedly will a sack Pochettino who is considered to have failed to meet the expectations of the club owner, now Zidane name has emerged as a coach after PSG collaboration with Pochettino ended.
It is very possible for a zidane to accept an offer from PSG, because he can make a new history with the French club. PSG squad is very complete, a zidane can apply any formation he wants.
Regarding Messi presence in the PSG squad, it is not a problem, the rivals are only on the pitch for 90 minutes, they really RESPECT each other, because Zidane is also a former football player.
Yes, it's funny when a coach refuses to coach a team just because of Messi, that's very funny, man. Anyway, if a coach doesn't like a player then the coach can fire him, this happened with Ronald Koeman at Barcelona until Luis Suárez fired. I think it's unprofessional, because if the player doesn't have a problem with the team and still makes a good contribution, then why sack him. Also, Zidane is from France which is very likely Zidane will accept the offer, because then Zidane will provide high achievements for the French team where it will be a mission for him to lift the team from France to succeed in the highest European stage like UCL.

Sporting cp will be a very serious threat for Porto, if Santa Clara can surprise and beat Porto in the 28th week, most likely Sporting's chances to catch Porto are increasingly open, but the problem is that Porto are unbeaten in the domestic league, from 27 matches they won 23 times and drew 4 times, hopefully there will be a miracle in the meeting of Porto and Santa Clara in week 28, and it can be Porto's first defeat in the league.
Very unlikely, although I'm not pegging on their history and head to head, I'm still sure there won't be any miracles for Santa Clara. Anyway, Porto are the only unbeaten team so far and if anyone can beat it then it will be a great opponent too, because Santa Clara doesn't have the magic one would expect. If previously Santa Clara had the occasional win against top-ranked teams then it's possible, but so far this season Santa Clara doesn't seem so lucky so it's difficult for Santa Clara to beat Porto and moreover Santa Clara playing away.

Basically the big teams that are in the top 4 at the moment they are safe, because even though Barcelona lost by Sevilla but in the end Barcelona will still be in the top 4 because Betis who are in 5th place have a gap of 4 points. So yes, actually to win is still important for Barcelona, considering Barcelona lately are better than Sevilla so Barcelona deserve to win. But if the target is not achieved, at least Barcelona will still be safe as long as they don't continue to drop points in the next match.

I will be watching the Nice - Rennes game probably. Because it is an important game for the third place in the standings. It is important for the second place too in fact but it will be depending on the result Marseille will get this week. Rennes have got ahead of Nice last week by two points. Rennes have been having a great form recently and they won all of their last five league games. I still don't think that Nice will lose this game though. It is very likely to end up with a draw I think.
Their head to head is dominated by draws and also, I can say that Nice also have a better winning record in head to head. So yes, with the situation and momentum in the race for third place, of course Nice, which is the home team here, will be able to take advantage of the situation well. A win for Nice or a draw is very possible, because Rennes themselves could not win a match at home in their first match of the season. So this away match remains tough for Rennes even though indeed, Rennes is in a better position in the standings but that is not a guarantee and the gap is only 2 points.
7438  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 30, 2022, 03:11:29 PM
We are mentioning Bayern Munich and Dortmund's chances about their next fixtures all the time. But we are missing a point here too. And it is that these games are quite important for Freiburg and Leipzig also. The reason why is that these two teams are in a tight battle for finishing the season up in top four. They have equal points now but Leipzig are maintaining the fourth place in the league table thanks to having a far more average than Freiburg. So Freiburg will have to win or draw with Bayern Munich and wait for Leipzig to lose points to be able to capture the place.

That is interesting that you pay attention to that. If both teams lose, it would even be a chance for Hoffenheim to reach 4th place.
In terms of difficulty the remaining programm from Freiburg and Leipzig is quite similar. But first they have to get through the next matchday. That will be hard enough. But I think both teams have a great chance to win.

That is not that interesting when you are forced to discuss about the 4th place and you know that the first place will always be either Bayern Munchen or Borussia Dortmund,that makes the Bundesliga a not so interesting league.

I would love for a team like Hoffenheim or Freiburg to reach the Champions League as those teams have not been a lot of times there while I have seen Leipzig and it offers not the same team quality as Bayern or Dortmund in such competition,maybe these other teams can do better.
Interesting or not it is the taste of each individual. About the next match I think is also interesting because the fight for 4th place will be a tough opponent, while Leipzig and Freiburg have the same points and only one place they will fight for. Freiburg will play against Bayern Munich and Leipzig having to play away against Dortmund is a tough task, it is very possible for these two teams to lose or draw but if they get a draw it is still not enough to make their position safe. Because the team below him was Hoffenheim, had a gap of 1 point and would only play against Bochum it was like a win for sure for Hoffenheim. Although indeed, I realize Bochum has a privilege that sometimes beats strong teams, even Bochum can beat Bayern Munich this season with a score of 4-2. But it seems that luck doesn't always happen, so it's very likely Hoffenheim will be able to make good use of this moment.

AC Milan very often appears inconsistent with the number of full points lost against the bottom teams
This is what makes it difficult for them to stay at the top position, and their worst defeat against a weak team was when they lost to Spezia Calcio and drawn against Selernitana, but I doubt for this match Milan will lose they will definitely play all out in the remaining matches of the season, if they want to lift the thropy.
Yes, that's how it is in football, not always a strong team can be held to a draw or even lose their match against the lowest team. I don't think they got that result because they underestimated the opponent. But I also find it a little bit strange why that result could happen, could it be a luck factor? Or other factors? Regardless, I agree that Milan will do their best to get the 3 points.
The luck factor will always be there because sometimes, the teams that lead in statistics still end up accepting defeat. But after all, the great effort made is something that is most important because in a match a team cannot only rely on miracles because it is something that is impossible if no efforts are made. But regarding the next match for Milan, the calculation on paper of course Milan will win. Not a good reason for Milan to repeat the same defeat as before, with Milan currently leading the table then of course they have to win the match.

There are Trabzonspor-Beşiktaş derby this weekend. The first match of Beşiktaş's new coach Valerian İsmael will be this derby. Fenerbahça will struggle second place. Galatasaray will face Karamgümrük their home. And everything is unclear in Galatasaray due to the election. It will be an interesting week for Super League.

Trabzonspor Beşiktaş match will be the best match this week. We think that Trabzon is the champion now, but this match is still very important for Beşiktaş. If they manage to win 3 points from such a difficult match they will have achieved an important success to finish the league among the top 4 teams at the end of the season, so they will be well prepared for this match Smiley
Even though Besiktas seem to still have a chance to finish in 4th position because they are only 3 points different from Alanyaspor, but in reality I see Besiktas will not be able to replace Alanyaspor's position in 4th place. Because even though Alanyaspor has not been very consistent this season but unfortunately, inconsistency also occurs in Besiktas. The only team that has been consistent this season is only Trabzonspor, so Trabzonspor deserve to be title winners this season and the result of winning or losing in the match against Besiktas in fact Trabzonspor will still be safe.
