Bayern Munich generously gave another chance to Dortmund to get close to themselves again. Because Bochum did the completely unexpected thing and destroyed Bayern Munich by 4-2 home. This was just unbelievable that's for sure. Because some time ago in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich demolished Bochum by 7-0 in Allianz Arena. When we take this result into account, this was an absurd one. I really appreciate Bochum for their awesome effort. I didn't place a bet on Bayern Munich as their odd was quite low. And I'm happy for not doing it.  |

Manchester City are doing great like all the time now. They don't have a striker in the absence of Gabriel Jesus now and Foden is on the front in the Norwich match currently. But they don't care about it and they are still winning 1-0 now. Sterling scored the goal. And Manchester City scored another goal while I was making this post. It is 2-0 now thanks to Foden. Manchester City are the most consistent team in the league and they really deserve the title this season.

If I were Lewandowski, I would stay at Bayern Munich. Because there is no meaning in leaving the team for now as long as he doesn't get a serious offer from one of the biggest clubs in Europe. Real Madrid would be one of the best choices though but I'm not expecting them to make an offer for Lewandowski if they become successful about their priorities. They want to sign Mbappe first and they could go for Haaland too. If they make these signings, it would be needless for them to sign Lewandowski too.

There is another great match is waiting for us one day after the PSG - Real Madrid match. Inter have a home match against Liverpool. This can be a really close match as it is in Giuseppe Meazza. If it was in Anfield, I wouldn't say the same thing because Liverpool would take control of it and wouldn't give it to Inter in any half. Hence, this might be Inter's biggest chance. If they win, we can count them as advantageous. But if they draw with Liverpool or lose, then they would most likely say goodbye to the CL.

Leipzig didn't make people wrong about themselves and destroyed Koln by 3-1 home. Actually the match was really balanced but Leipzig were able to make use of the goal chances better than Koln. They captured a 3-0 advantage already until the 60th minute and won the match comfortably. This win carried Leipzig to the fourth position in the standings temporarily. Leipzig continue to impress people by their performance in the recent times. If they go on like this, they can really make it to the fourth position at worst until the end of the season.

We are nearly at the end of the first half of the Sevilla - Elche match now. And Sevilla are playing a more dominant football but still there is no goal in the match. But as long as they keep it up, they are very likely to get ahead any time. But this wouldn't be enough for Sevilla because Elche are a real fighter these days. They might somehow find a way to score the equalizer after that. It is important for Sevilla to get a win here not to be under the risk of getting away from Real Madrid more in the standings.

The Napoli - Inter match is nearly upon us and we all are wondering how it is going to end. Napoli have a big opportunity to get ahead of Inter in the standings and take the lead. But it is on the condition that they win this match which seems to be really difficult to me. Inter wouldn't make another mistake like that after the Milan loss I believe. We could see it ending up with a draw and each team would score at least one goal. And I think that the final score could be 2-2.

I think that the main event is Villarreal - Real Madrid. Villarreal could be one of the most difficult targets for Real Madrid in this season. Because their form lately has been impressive. And they are a really difficult team to defeat while playing away against them. And Real Madrid are facing another problem that Benzema is still injured. He is their most scorer now as far as I know. This adds an extra difficulty to the match maybe but Real Madrid can at least get a draw in this match. But if Villarreal score first, then Real Madrid could even lose this.

PSG are doing very great now and they owe the most of this success to Kylian Mbappe I think. He has been so great that he has made the biggest contribution to the team with his goals and assists so far. And they are under the threat of losing Mbappe to Real Madrid now. Because of this, their main goal is to win the Champions League title this season. I don't think that they can achieve this without him if he leaves. And unless they fill his place with one of the best players for that position now.

The last two matches of the week have started too. I have already said before that I'm favouring Liverpool to win this match. Salah is in the subs and he could enter the match in the second half taking the condition of the match into account. Mane is not here today but Luis Diaz is in his place now. Maybe this could be the biggest chance Diaz is having in the starting eleven. I know that he is new here but I hope he can do his best and perform as good as possible. And in the other match, I think Arsenal won't lose and it could end up with a tie.

People have started getting curious about what Bayern Munich are going to do this summer. Because Lewandowski is very likely to leave the team and join a team like Real Madrid. And this can lead the way for Bayern Munich to start their attempts for signing Erling Haaland. I'm one of the people who think that Haaland shouldn't go there. It can be really boring to see a world-star striker like him having his times at his young age in the Bundesliga. I would definitely like to see him playing in different top leagues immediately.

James Harden is really an unlucky player. He is giving his best in most of their games at whatever team he plays. But he still hasn't become the champion with any team so far. All of his efforts have just been in vain. And there are some rumours like Harden could leave Nets too at the end of this season if they don't make it to the championship. And considering the latest performance of the team, it seems unlikely to me that they can make it. But it is still early to be sure of anything too. When KD and Harden return, we will see what they will do.

Villarreal and Juventus are going to have a matchup against each other. And this is also an interesting matchup I think even though not so many people are talking about it. The odds for the first match is very close now. Bookmakers are confused now as we see that some of them favour Villarreal but some of them think the opposite. But all of them are expecting a competitive match seemingly. And I think so too. Villarreal can be a really deadly team when they have a good day. I think that the first match could end in a draw.

Sevilla are a lucky team as they have a chance to drop the gap with Real Madrid in the standings this week. Because they are going to have an easy home match against Elche and Real Madrid have a really difficult match against Villarreal away. I guess that Sevilla would destroy Elche first and drop the gap to three points. And this might cause Real Madrid to feel the pressure on themselves before their Villarreal match. And Villarreal have been in a good shape recently as they have been winning for two weeks. Maybe they can cause Real Madrid to lose points this time. Real Madrid might have a big difficulty in winning while being deprived of Benzema because of his injury.
Sevilla will make a big mistake if they consider Elche as a weak team. We have seen Elche's performance against Real Madrid. Even if Elche could score earlier against Sevilla, it would be very difficult for Sevilla to win the match. So Sevilla have to play very carefully in this match. Real Madrid's next match is against Villarreal, and after that they will play against PSG in the Champions League. It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid will form their main squad against Villarreal or whether they will rest their key players. The next two matches are important for Real Madrid. You have a good point there. I have just checked Elche's current form now. And I saw this: They haven't been losing for five weeks in the La Liga and won three of those matches. This is really not the kind of statistics that one can underestimate. And they resisted Real Madrid in a great way too. But on the other hand, I'm sure that Sevilla also would be aware of this and they would play carefully in this match. They must be aware that they can cause Real Madrid to pull away from them earlier and announce their championship. |

It seems to be a comfortable day for Manchester City today. Because their next opponent is Brentford and it is a home match. This is like a gift for Manchester City not to turn down. And I don't think that they will turn it down too. It's like Brentford really need a miracle to get even one point from Manchester City here. And the other attracting match for me is Tottenham - Southampton. Tottenham are the favourite team to win this match of course. But they still must be careful as Southampton are an unpredictable team.

Wolfsburg have ended their very bad form finally by demolishing Greuther Furth by 4-1 home. I was feeling pretty sure about that Wolfsburg were going to beat them as there is still a big difference between these teams. Wolfsburg finally won a match in the Bundesliga after a break of nine weeks. Hopefully, this can be an impetus for Wolfsburg to start a good winning streak and get away from the dangerous area. Wolfsburg don't deserve to relegate from the league. If they stay, I believe in them to have a much better season next time.

I think that the West Ham - Watford match can be a nice one too. West Ham are favoured at a high rate and there is a valid reason for it of course. West Ham have had a great time so far in the current season. And Watford are in the relegation area now. West Ham lost their last two league matches and this is not a good thing for them. Their momentum is dying off now and they must do something to prevent it. And they have a golden opportunity right ahead of them now. I think this is the match that West Ham finally get a win at the end.

Inter have a really tough fixture these days. They played a derby match against Milan first and lost it by 2-1. This was a shocking loss for them and I think that the result would affect their morale badly too. And now, they have a Coppa Italia match against Roma. And right after this match, they are going to face Napoli in an away match in the league. No matter what, I still expect Inter to focus on the Roma match to make up for the loss they got last. And honestly, I don't think that Roma can resist them till the end.

Things are getting more serious for Galatasaray by every week they lose points. I understand their result against Alanyaspor of course because Alanyaspor are one of the most powerful teams this season. But they lost so many comfortable matches and this must be really annoying for their supporters too. They still have many opportunities ahead of them now. They must take advantage of this situation one way or another. Because they don't have much luxury to continue to lose or draw with their opponents. They immediately need a winning streak to get away from the relegation zone.
