Instead of being able to win easily, Betis actually lost at home by a team that in the first match of the season was defeated by a big score. If it's like this then I'm sure their position doesn't change until the end and the competition is tight at the end of the season, in fact it didn't turn out as expected. Lately the favorite teams can be defeated by a mediocre team or at least a team that is not a favorite, this result certainly makes the competition not so tight even though their point gap is still close.

I think the proper semifinals fixture for this season champion's league should have been Liverpool Vs Bayern Munich and Manchester city Vs Real Madrid but Bayern Munich underestimated Villarreal and that empowered Villarreal to knock them out. Real Madrid vs Manchester Ciy fixture is easily the favorite fixture every fan want to see because of the strengths of both team.
Actually all predicting on Semifinal to see match between Liverpool vs Bayern Munich but Villareal become most surprise team with drop performance on domestic league but can eliminated top team like Juventus and Bayern Munich for leading to semifinal. Still left two weeks later before semifinal first leg begin and four team have already for getting good result. I can't easy for predicting match between Liverpool vs Villareal after how success defeated two top team and will be Liverpool the next top team eliminating by Villareal. While other people are looking forward to the Real Madrid v Manchester City match, I personally have an interest in Villarreal. Also, most of those I read here say Liverpool will be the next team that Villarreal might get rid of, but I personally don't agree with that. Previously, when Villarreal managed to get rid of Juventus and Bayern Munich, I personally saw that the two big teams were indeed declining in performance. In contrast to Liverpool I really believe Klopp will be able to stop Villarreal in the semi-finals and Liverpool will get the win, anyway I personally have no doubts about Liverpool's current performance they are in their best form. |

The victory that was in sight disappeared after El Shaarawy scored a goal at the end of the match, I also think it was a luck but luck will not happen if there is no effort. So yes, congratulations to Roma who still got one point in yesterday's match, because considering they only played with 10 players at that time, it would be difficult for Roma to score a goal. But with continued efforts, Roma got the expected result, but it was also a hard blow for Napoli who should have continued to play attacking in the second half.

Liverpool v Manchester United is it a big match? Because I think it's just a normal match for the favorite team to play against a mediocre team. There is no strong resistance the away team can put up and if they are a big team then to be honest, they have a lot of issues that need to be resolved soon. If the current coach is no longer able to do his best, then why keep it because after all, Manchester United is out of the European zone and this makes Manchester United no longer need a coach who can no longer be expected.

In the first match of the season Betis can win away when playing against Elche with a big score of 3-0, in the next few hours Betis will play at home against Elche. If Betis can repeat the win as in their first match to win by at least 3-0, then that would be enough to take over 4th place and overtake Atletico for the lead in goals count. But unfortunately, considering Elche's performance which was also improving despite not consistently winning, Elche was able to withstand defeat with a close gap. Well, it will be interesting to see if Betis will be able to win big or maybe just win by a narrow score, but anything is still possible and we don't know what surprise Elche might make.

What is the reason that bookmakers give for Inter such an advantage in the match? 2.05 for Inter and 3.7 for Milan, besides everything, this is a derby, and such matches are always very difficult, the first thing that comes to mind is that Milan will not lose for 1.76. Or Milan with a handicap of +1 for a odds of 1.38 also very good, for some kind of multi-bet. Perhaps the bookmakers know something, if they give such a weighty preference to Inter, we'll see tonight.
I think the odds are quite reasonable, because when both teams compete and both have the same chance of winning, the odds will not have much of a gap. Placing odds above 2 will at least make bettors reconsider, because usually higher odds have a lower chance of winning. So I don't think there's a problem with the available odds, because in the end you are looking for other alternatives to get lower odds that at least have a chance to win higher bets. While basically it's both not guaranteed, at least that's also the intent of the bookies to provide high odds, but if you are sure which team wins then the high odds will certainly be good. |

UEFA Champion League as the only one competition for Villareal can participant on next season become the winner, with drop 7th position standing on domestic league Villareal can't got UEFA Champion League spot next season trough domestic league, but still possibility by getting Champion League trophy in this season can qualify for champion league next season. I think not any dreaming for Villareal can reach champion league trophy because they have strong with eliminated Juventus and Bayern Munich so far, still have chance Liverpool become the next team destroy by Villareal on UEFA Champion League semifinal.
I think the dream is too high because the remaining big teams have a better reputation in the UCL than Bayern Munich, even Bayern Munich previously also drew with Salzburg and it proves that Bayern Munich is not in a good performance. I personally believe Villarreal will be eliminated in this semi-final because Liverpool are really at their best, because miracles don't keep coming even though in a match any result can happen. I personally believe Liverpool will be able to learn how Villarreal can get rid of Juventus and Bayern Munich, so Liverpool will certainly have a formula to deal with it. |

In the middle of this week we will have a postponed match to be played, and the first match to be played is the match between Liverpool v Manchester United and will be played today. We also probably all know about the sad news experienced by Ronaldo, in a state of mourning like this I personally do not believe Ronaldo will continue to play for Manchester United. What's more, Manchester United are not currently in the title race so it looks like Ronaldo won't be playing, but even if Ronaldo plays then I'm afraid Ronaldo won't be able to play well.

Bayern Munich are the big favorites even though it's a big match that usually the gap in odds isn't that big, but this really shows where Bayern Munich is sure to win. But indeed, if Bayern Munich can win this match then they will soon celebrate winning the title this season, and even though the draw I think Bayern Munich will still celebrate it. Because then after they play they only have 3 matches left and with those matches remaining and the current 9 point gap, Bayern Munich's position is still irreplaceable.

I don't think Atalanta will lose this match, even though they are the favourites. Also, in the first match in the first half of the season Atalanta could win away with the same score 2-1, with this Atalanta seems to be continuing to weaken and Verona can basically avenge their defeat here. Also, it looks like Verona will be able to take over Atalanta's place if Atalanta can't improve their performance quickly, because even though the next match Atalanta will find an easy opponent on paper. But still, at the end of this season the favorite teams do not guarantee an easy win.

From the statistics it is clear that Cadiz can play well and is very disciplined, I personally didn't expect this to happen because Barcelona dominated the match but Cadiz was able to hold and block well without having to go through a serious foul. Cadiz only got one yellow card which was very surprising I think, because Barcelona who dominated the match actually got more yellow cards. It's a shame that a win on paper didn't materialize and with this result Barcelona's position might not be too safe, but either way, finishing in the top four is still very possible for Barcelona.

PSG won their pre-eminent rival, Marseille 2-1 in the parc de princes home stadium. Their victory was as a result of luck, because VAR ruled out William Saliba goal, which could have levelled the scoresheet. The game was full of fouls, Paris Saint German have a total of 16 fouls while their guest, Marseille have 12 fouls, therefore making it a total of 28 fouls. The game was too tight for the home team, and half of the team, 6 players were issued straight yellow cards. Even their key players Neymar and Mbappe were also among those that were issued a yellow card. The away team, Marseille dominated the game but unfortunately of them they failed to close the gap difference between them and Paris Saint German. Currently now, there's nothing Marseille can do about the League 1 title because it has already belong to the best team in their league.
If you talk about goals disallowed then actually PSG also had goals disallowed, it was Messi's goal disallowed in the first half too and even if the goal was confirmed then PSG lead 3-1 at haftime. This win is still not a lucky win, and I don't agree with that, Even though I'm not a PSG fan but if you say it only on the one hand it's like an assumption that is very biased, whereas in reality I'm sure it's not. |

It looks like it's been confirmed even though things can still change but with the results so far, then of course Real Madrid and Barcelona can be confirmed to remain teams in 1st and 2nd place standings until the end of this season. I personally don't doubt it because even though at this time Barcelona's points are the same as the two teams below it, Barcelona has a match that has not been played. Today's match against Cadiz at least a victory on paper will certainly be won by Barcelona, then the standings competition will heat up for the 3 teams below Sevilla, Atletico and Betis.

Looking at the odds today it looks like RB Leipzig is the clear favourite to win the Europa League this year. Not sure if I would place my money on only 2.1 for RB Leipzig to be the champion. Don't get me wrong, they have a strong team and played well this season, but both West Ham United and Eintrach Frankfurt are playing really well this season too. The both faced some hard opponents to reach semi finals and should be strongly motivated to reach the finalls. RB Leipzig definitely has the weaker opponent with Rangers, it seems almost guaranteed that they will reach the finals. As for the second match it will be very interesting. West Ham United seems to be clear the favourite, and so was Barcelona. I wouldn't bet on that match either way. My first bet will be RB Leipzig reaching the finals, and then I will use that money to bet on the winner of Eintrach Frankfurt - West Ham United to win against Leipzig in the finals.
It looks like Rangers here will be considered underdogs because the three teams above look very strong, although previously Frankfurt was the same but because Frankfurt can get rid of Barcelona then this competition will be difficult to predict. Because previously, if Barcelona could qualify then of course Barcelona would be a strong candidate for the title winner but unfortunately, that scenario didn't work. Until finally these three teams have a good chance to win the title, but for me the order is West Ham, Leipzig, Frankfurt and finally Rangers. |

There is no tight competition in the top flight but for the next match it is clear, Marseille must be consistent if they don't want their position to be taken over by Rennes. If in the next match Marseille loses and Rennes wins, then Rennes can immediately take over the 2nd place. The current 3 point gap makes 2nd place even tighter, because Rennes is leading in the number of goals and this makes Marseille's position no longer safe.

Wow Antalyaspor got another win this week. They are driving through mid table to top like truck. This consistency which I mentioned may really result finishing around higher standings and European cup. I wish Antalyaspor performed this good at first half of current season. They could be in top 4 right now maybe competing with teams like Konyaspor etc.
Antalyasapor has great performance with Nuri Şahin. Gökdeniz Bayraktar scored 2 goals. And Gökdeniz Bayraktar is 20 years old. Young player's performance is important for Antalyaspor. Antalyaspor fans are happy right now. They are hopeful for the future. With the remaining matches in the remaining season, I think it is too narrow to compete for 4th place, if the team above it is inconsistent or continues to lose in the remainder of this match then it can make Antalyaspor continue to rise. But the consideration, is it possible for them to just give up in the competition and it's very unlikely. Indeed, Antalyaspor is unbeaten in their last 11 matches but unfortunately, this good achievement is too late because there are only 5 matches left to go. |

Tottenham hotspur lose heavily to Brighton. Spurs boss, Anthonio Conte was really disappointed with the results they got at their home stadium. L. Trossard gave his team the lead at stoppage time. There was absolutely nothing Spurs could do because it was already stoppage time. Brighton have just given Arsenal, Westham and Manchester United hope for the top 4. Tottenham needed to win the game against Brighton, in other to top their rivalry. Although they are still in the top 4, but I think their days at the top 4 are probably numbered.
The craziest thing I have seen this season is probably all the teams going for top 4 been so bad and it seems no one wants it, I wouldn't have thought Brighton would upset Tottenham Hotspur. So far, they have succeeded In defeating two north London clubs Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur respectively and I think they deserve all the accolades. Not just Tottenham and Arsenal but also did defeated Manchester City in the first half of the season. They should be the next fixture coming Manchester City up against Brighton. This game will be and the Liverpool Manchester United can decide who wins the league, that's if Manchester United and Brighton gets to win in them game 70 percent sure that Liverpool is going to win against Manchester United. Isn't is alarming that Mohammed Salah hasn't scored for the past three to four games ? Brighton lost 4-1 in the first half of the season against Manchester City, if you look at Brighton winning 3-2 it was the match in the second half of the previous season. As for Salah not scoring goals I don't think it's a problem, because as long as his movement with and without the ball is good then it's enough for Salah to trick the opponent. If Salah can't score in reality other players are still good to score and even, in the FA CUP semifinal match yesterday Salah didn't make goals and assists but in fact Liverpool can still win. |

Wow Atletico could still change the score in the last minute and yes, in the end Atletico managed to win the match dramatically, I thought Atletico had no more chances and would have ended in a draw but guess that didn't happen. Atletico's victory did not change its position in the standings, but with this victory at least Atletico still have a chance to be able to take over the position above it.

I think luck is still on Juventus' side against Bologna. Because they almost accepted defeat if only Vlahovic did not score in the last minute. They find it difficult to dismantle Bologna's defenses. On the other hand, Bologna was able to withstand the attacks that launched Juventus. And I think if the Bologna players don't get a red card, Juventus will really lose this game.
Of course it's luck - it's hard to plan to equalize the score in the 5th added minute even if the opponent plays in the minority. A very unpleasant result for Juventus, not in terms of tournament prospects (since Juventus will not go anywhere from fourth place), but psychologically. If earlier they could "put pressure" on competitors by the fact that "we have revived and next season everything will be our way," then such matches destroy these theses. Juventus seems to have lost something after losing by Villarreal which seems very concerning, because before that happens at least Vlahovic really looks like he will be a player who promises to win for Juventus. But now it seems like there are differences that make it difficult for them to achieve the expected results, I personally still have no foresight of how the title race for Serie A will be. Because the current competition is still very interesting and still unpredictable though indeed, it looks like Inter have a chance better. Therefore, there is still no guarantee that next season's competition will be more competitive or that there may be a team that will dominate greatly. |

For the draw between Liverpool and Villarreal, I believe that Liverpool are very close to advancing to final round in the Champions League. Villarreal might not be that strong against them this time. Or I can put it this way: Liverpool would dominate the game in Anfield for certain. But as for the game in Spain, Villarreal would show a strong performance against them and wouldn't lose easily.
Even where they are now is a feat for Villareal. I think Liverpool will eliminate them. There may even be two English teams in the final. Manchester City can knock out Real Madrid. In such a final, the chances of both teams would be equal. Let's see if Villareal can make another surprise and make it to the final. Many football experts predict the grand final of Liverpool and Manchester City in the Champions League. But those same football experts also predicted a sure victory for Bayern against Villareal, and they also said that Chelsea have no chance in return to Madrid, right?  Villarreal have a very good defense and will be a very difficult opponent for Liverpool and Real have already shown this season in the Champions League that they are a cat with 9 lives and that they should never be written off. Very uncertain and completely open semi-final matches await us, and the current inspiration and individual quality of the players will decide. Individual qualities are needed but this time, the strategy and tactics used by the coach are important for the team. When it comes to individual skills then I think Bayern Munich are better than Villarreal but the facts? In fact, Villarreal are unbeaten by Bayern Munich. So now this is really going to show how the skills of the coach in formulating strategies and regarding the best coaches today, so I personally have no doubts about the quality of Pep and Klopp. |
