With the look of things, Manchester United, Galatasaray and Copenhagen they all need wining for one club to qualify because there points are almost equal especially Copenhagen and Galatasaray but however among the three teams Copenhagen has the highest chances of qualifying because they are on the second position of the table so even if they draw with Galatasaray and Manchester United also draws with Bayern Munich Copenhagen automatically qualify has as the second position on the table, but perhaps if Galatasaray manages to draw with them and Manchester United eventually wins then they will be the one that will qualify, so there table is actually tight for the three clubs especially for Manchester United.
I personally favor Galatasaray over Copenhagen for that match. Even though Copenhagen is in second place, for me they both still have the same statistics. Copenhagen is in second place because it has a goal difference of 1 point more. It wouldn't make much of a difference in my opinion. The most difficult opportunity is at Manchester United. No offense but I hope they can do better in the European UEFA league. In the first leg the two clubs drew with a score of 2-2 at home to Galatasaray, but when looking at the background and considering the importance of the last match of the group phase, I predict there will not be a repeat of the draw. the quality and depth of the squad that Galatasaray has puts it ahead of Copenhagen, that is a fact that needs to be underlined. apart from that, we also cannot ignore another fact, that currently Copenhagen has more points than Galatasaray and Man United. I think Galatasaray fate is still better than United, because they have two chances, if they fail to get to the last 16 then they have another chance to go to the Europa League. meanwhile, United must wait for a miracle to be able to advance to one of these rounds. United attracted more attention in group A because of their poor performance, and in the EPL Ten Hag squad just lost to Bournemouth at home with 3-0. So it will definitely be more difficult to beat Bayern in the 6th match, if you refer to their current performance. |

Juventus moved to the first position of the Italian league points table. Juventus have been playing very well and today they beat Napoli 1-0 to move past Inter into the first position. This is a really good achievement for Juventus and I already predicted that they will do much better this time and they are likely to fuse to win the Italian league this season. Looks like my guess is going to be correct as Juventus are playing really well
I think the standings will change again after the match between Inter and Udinese. the success of the Alleggri squad in securing 3 points from Napoli confirms that they are real Scudetto contenders with Inter this season, I think they can do it because they only focus on Serie A. on the other hand, Napoli have lost momentum to defend the trophy this season, and the most realistic target for them is to finish in the top four. If Inter goes far in the UCL, then Juventus opportunity to lead the standings is quite open, because Inter will be required to balance the competition in the two competitions. soon we will see Inzaghi squad match against Udinese, on paper I think this is an easy match for Inter. Udinese is currently setting the ambition to stay away from the degradation zone, but their efforts this time are tough to make it happen. Statistically, Udinese is the only club that has drawn the most games so far in Serie A, but Inter do not want to share points and are ambitious to take back their place at the top of the standings. |

The game was pretty much decided by that red card. Crystal palace held off Liverpool the entire game but when they received the red card everything just went Liverpools way. Liverpool again with a big comeback to win three points and this is how the title is being won when winning this games.
Nice to see that Liverpool won the game against Crystal Palace and for sure this is my most exciting weekend because I bet on Liverpool winning and that has come to pass in the game much more also let's see how Arsenal and Manchester United play tonight and coming out with some good point to support the whole table, I am very happy for Liverpool to come back this season and I hope their continue in this current motivation level to winning the season title which there have always failed with several attempts. Liverpool managed to win dramatically by making a comeback in the final minute, and I think Salah deserved to be man of the match in that match, even though Elliott ensured the Reds managed to close out the match and secure 3 points. I think the competition is becoming fiercer at the top of the standings, and Liverpool has the opportunity to occupy the top position if Arsenal versus Aston Villa draw. Arteta has the ambition to secure full points from Aston Villa, but I think this will not be easy. Unai Emery squad is in pretty good form, they just beat Man City in Week 15, that's the reason I think Arsenal will have to fight hard in this match. It's possible that Aston Villa beat them, that doesn't rule out the possibility. Regarding Man United, currently Ten Hag squad is 2-0 behind Bournemouth, I predict that in this match United will lose points. I think it is true that, this season we need to be careful if you want to bet on United matches, because they can only play well when they meet other big clubs. |

On the contrary I don't think the match will be that serious because in as much as Bayern Munich want to put more effort on that match but the competition ahead of them will make them to reserve there players for more tougher match to come because even if they lose the match against Manchester United they still have nothing to lose, and even if they decided to use all there key players and eventually wins Manchester United the points will make no meaning for them. The way I'm seeing the match if Manchester United put more effort like the performance they put during their match against Chelsea it will surely be a win game for them. This could be the primary factor why Manchester United still has a tiny chance to progress to the next round although they don't deserve it to be honest. The win against Chelsea now gave them some room to calm down and start focusing on their next games, but it would be insane if they do beat Bayern Munich and Copenhagen and Galatasaray finish their game with a draw and the chaotic club Manchester United ends up playing in the round of 16 in the Champions League. I think it would be ridiculous if we look at all the performances the team has shown this season. Yeah I agree with you that Manchester United doesn't deserve the wining because they actually don't have what it takes to be there perhaps even if the eventually wins Bayern Munich there chances of wining any team on the next round is very small because the next round is really going to be tougher compare to the teams they have meet earlier, so that's why I said the possibility of Manchester United to be able to perform on the next round may not be certain because is going to be very competitive. Well Copenhagen and Galatasaray match will determine the faith of Manchester United. Man United victory in the EPL against Chelsea cannot be used as a complete reference, because the levels of Chelsea and Bayern Munchen this season are very different. I personally see that United will lose hope on matchday 6, because on paper it is very difficult to predict that they will secure 3 points over Bayern later, even though Ten Hag and his squad act as hosts. We certainly know very well how United will qualify for the round of 16, by relying on a draw from the Copenhagen vs Galatasaray match, and of course with the main requirement of beating Bayern. so it makes sense to say their chances are nil now, it would take a big miracle to see them play in the next round. Actually, United is a good team and has a quality squad, but recently their performance has been very far from everyone expectations. they are currently receiving a lot of sharp criticism, especially Ten Hag and Onana. |

Harry Kane is really great impact for Bayern Munich. He delivers what Bayern expected to happen from Mane previously. This has undeniably strengthened their attacking prowess. But, yeah, they seem to be vulnerabilities in their midfield and defense affecting their overall performance compared to previous seasons. This perceived weakness can be exploited by clubs like Leverkusen to challenge Bayern's dominance in the league.
Leverkusen with strong performance so far is nurturing hope for a potential shift in the Bundesliga's championship narrative. Their consistency and form indicate a genuine chance to compete at the highest level. The idea that Bayern's usual stranglehold on the league title might be in distress adds an exciting dimension to the season. Dortmund's last season failure makes them started the season unconvincing to repeat disrupting Bayern's dominance like in the previous season.
The most randomly used tactics solution when facing a bigger team is a defensive strategy that only obeys counter attacking. Bayern do not seem as a team that'll be vulnerable to this tactic but they still have to be cautious. They have all it takes to secure a big win, their players from defense to attack are so organized such that Kane doesn't have to make much struggle in winning the ball and placing at the back of the net. Tuchel is one skilful coach and he knows how best to counter the tactics that's put forward by opposing teams. Bayern Munich themselves are one team that makes winning so easy for them and there wouldn't be a surprise if it's thesame outcome in their next game. Harry Kane is eager to score more goal, Bayern Munich is determined to win, Koln's team just has to profer a subduing strategy to reduce the infliction of goals against them, Inasmuch as Leverkusen are currently at the top of the standings in the German League, there's still hope and opportunity and confidence in Munich to reclaim the top spot. The season has been quite competitive and challenging for Munich based on Leverkusen's awakened impact and standard of football. They've made Munich loose a winning point in their home ground and that definitely says a lot on how critical and technical their contest for the trophy is. They're not taking chances. Munich has had the show in the German League for a while now and truthfully they've so gotten used to it. This season may be the difference and they may have to sit back and watch someone else lift the trophy. It'll be bad and sad for them though that's why I believe Tuchel won't fold his arms and watch Alonso's Leverkusen take it all. They're just a very little point away from each other, with Munich to a pending match advantage too. Maybe that match can be the turning point for them but whichever way, we really can't wait to see the end of the season and who finishes top. I think the Bundesliga race seems to be a battle between just two teams every season, this time first place will belong to Bayern Munchen or Bayer Laverkusen, while Dortmund potential is just a stumbling block, we haven't forgotten that they lost 4-0 at home, even though yesterday managed to hold back Laverkusen progress. Moreover, with the remaining 21 matches in the future, we will only see two axis of competition in the fight for the top position of the standings, and in the end the Bundesliga will only present two clubs challenging for the title. This scenario reflects previous seasons, where Leverkusen only swapped positions with Dortmund in an effort to them to overthrow Bayern power. Even though Stuttgart are currently in third place, their performance to date has not convinced me that they are on par with Laverkusen in putting pressure on Bayern. This does not mean that Stuttgart has no chance of winning the championship trophy, that is completely wrong. However, here, what Xabi Alonso has achieved with his club is still in doubt, let alone the others. |

I think Girona's great improvement has only happened this season, and not over the past few years. After all, if for example Girona had good results in recent years, then Girona should have finished in the top 4 or in the top 5 but in fact, not at all. So ya, although Girona is very good this season but still, it will still be difficult for Girona to be able to get the La Liga trophy. Because after all, even though this season Barcelona did not have good results like last season, but the fact is that at this moment there is also Real Madrid who still has a good performance. Therefore, I think that no matter how good Girona is this season but ya, it will still be difficult for Girona to be able to lock the first position until the end of the season. Yes, Girona great improvement only happened this season, and not over the past few years. But Last season, Girona was actually good. Even, they could beat Real Madrid with a big score. But unfortunately, they were not consistent until the end to reach a position in the top four. Unfortunately, you're right. This season Girona performance has great improvement, but the competition for the title is not easy for them, we have Real Madrid and there is still Barcelona which are might be able to improve their performance to be consistent again. Many still doubt whether Girona deserves to be on the list of contenders for the La Liga title this season, but their performance in the last 15 matches has opened everyone eyes. They grab attention, make the race for the top four even more complicated, and Girona movements from one match to the next are quite difficult to predict. To win La Liga, Girona must be able to tear down the two towering walls that stand in front of them. I mean, they have to be able to put up a fight against Real Madrid and Barcelona, and of course against ATM. It is reasonable to say so, because each team meets twice a season. If Girona continues to lose to these three teams, they will lose 18 points. I think that doesn't include the possibility of another draw, so it makes sense that to become a title contender, Girona must be able to challenge the three teams above. Apart from the championship trophy, their improvement in performance is interesting to watch, making us focus on their matches. Moreover, their closest match will be against Barcelona. |

Recently I have noticed a certain kind of trend. One team that is not expected to win is actually able to break the deadlock. And after that, they get a red card and the other team starts scoring and making a comeback. Also eventually being able to win the match. I have seen that happening in a few matches. probably just a coincidence.
But this was definitely a good comeback from Roma. They had control over the ball for most of the time. And in the end, they were able to make something out of it.
Fiorentina is not in a very stable form right now. They are more inconsistent compared to Roma. So I will actually say that Roma might be able to win the next match as well.
I think it's not just a coincidence, but rather part of a strategy to take advantage of all available opportunities, so at first glance it looks like a coincidental pattern. More precisely, Roma had greater luck yesterday by managing to secure 3 points from Sassuolo. On the other hand, for Sassuolo the red card means bad luck, but I see them also being able to trouble Roma. I agree with you regarding Roma next match against Fiorentina, meaning that Mourinho squad has a greater opportunity presentation, especially as they will act as hosts. This match will also confirm their position in the top four of the standings from being chased Napoli, of course 3 points is an absolute requirement if you don't want to be eliminated from there. Roma situation is improving as their players recover from injuries, although it's a shame that Tammy Abraham still has to take a long break until january, but Lukaku presence this season has really helped Morinho squad attack line. Management must try to convince him to stay longer at the club, by paying his release clause from Chelsea. |

We are only a week away from the last group games. In Group B the situation is critical for Sevilla. They have been able to collect only 2 points in 5 games. They have to win against Lens if they want to continue with the Europa League at least. However there is a big question there about whether they can really make this happen.
Because Lens are also a team that have been doing pretty good in the group. Despite being more inexperienced they have collected 5 points in this challenging group for themselves. They have a home game against Sevilla therefore they can be considered quite advantageous. I think they could get one point at worst.
In group B only Sevilla who still unable to gets the winning results after 5th matches and for the match against Lens indeed if they won from Lens Sevilla will collect 5 points from 6th matches and their points will equal to Lens and actually i do not too understand the mechanism how UEFA determined who is the team will qualified if there are two teams who had equal points but if i am not mistaken Sevilla have to win at least 3 goals without conceded from Lens if they want to qualified because if they can able to do that Sevilla has better goals difference from Lens but indeed this is hard task for them especially with their current condition but i wouldn't underestimate Sevilla because they are Europa league champion and in that competition Sevilla has strong mentally so everything is still possible for them With its current performance, it will be very difficult for Sevilla to score 3 goals to beat Lens on matchday 6. In fact, I think that their path to getting into the Europa League play offs is very slim, Sevilla needs a miracle to get there. In group B, I predict that PSV will be able to accompany Arsenal in progressing to the knockout round, it would be quite a shame for Sevilla if their progress had to stop early. Previously we saw that Lens beat Arsenal, which made us all surprised by the result of the match, so it is very likely that Sevilla could also drop points. This group phase saw several big teams having difficulties, even a team like Man United had a similar fate in group A. |

Few hours left have several Premier League matches from
- Sheffield vs Liverpool
- Fulham vs Nott Forest
- Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth
- Brighton vs Brentford
- Man United vs Chelsea
- Aston Villa vs Man City
Liverpool must take three points away match against Sheffield after Arsenal won last night and they have 5 points left, not much problem get three points for Liverpool. I think have interested match between Manchester United vs Chelsea, Erik ten Hag under pressure right now after several bad matches result and have speculation more than 50% of Manchester United players want ten Hag sack from his position. It's not only Liverpool but everyone who are behind Arsenal on the table. Arsenal were lucky last night but in the end 3 points is what matters. Anyway seems like United vs Chelsea will be highlight of today's fixtures. Both teams have been struggling but have top quality squad. It would be an exciting fixture to watch. I will say Chelsea are playing quite well compared to United so I am going for Chelsea win today. The match between Man United and Chelsea is certainly the most anticipated match of the week, even though both clubs have had unstable records this season. regardless of that, I think this match is very stressful for Ten Hag after being defeated by Newcastle, Pochettino was slightly better because he was able to secure full points against Brighton yesterday. For me, this match is quite difficult to predict, because both clubs make our hearts unsafe every week. however, in addition to that, the course of the match will definitely be intense, because we have seen that both United and Chelsea, when meeting with other big teams, will play well. On paper, even though The Blues is slightly favored in this match, I doubt that percentage. because after all, The Red Devils will not be ashamed in front of their own supporters, and for Ten Hag he could be threatened with dismissal. I'm leaning towards the Blues losing points, but it could be that my prediction is broken. |

PSV in champions seems to be having very big troubles in defense,i think is not a change in the way they play, its most like the quality of the teams in Champions make them pay every failure, and eredivisie that doesnt happen, for the lack of the offensive players in the teams.
I think in the Champions League PSV is still lucky to be in group B, and another piece of luck that I see is that Sevilla is not having a stable performance. In the next match against Arsenal, the Dutch representative only needs to force Arteta's squad to a draw, this opportunity is quite open considering that the match will be played at Philips Stadium. I'm pretty sure PSV will qualify for the round of 16 even if they draw or lose to Arsenal. In short, if Lens vs Sevilla draws, or Lens loses to Sevilla then PSV will automatically qualify. On the other hand, for me personally it is actually very natural that PSV is a little different when appearing in the UCL, because we know the competitive level of the Eredivisie and they come from there. In the Eredivisie PSV is unstoppable, last week Feyenoord also failed to become a stumbling block for PSV steps, now the point difference has formed to 10 points, I think 50% of them have won the trophy now. |

The problem is that even though Manchester United plays against the second eleven of Bayern Munich, Manchester United will not still win against Bayern Munich. Manchester United should just forget about qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League and focus on winning their Premier League matches.
It is very understandable for everyone frustration when they see Man United current fate, and I think the situation will become even more complicated in the future. Maybe if they lose to Bayern later, Ten Hag will most likely be fired and management will appoint an interim coach this season. We can see that Tuchel will not relax his enthusiasm, he will still try to bring his club to beat United. Apart from that, if the scenario changes and United wins, even though it is no longer meaningful in determining qualification, for Red Devils fans this is a matter of pride at home. United will have the ambition to avenge their defeat at the Allianz Arena, and Bayern will have the ambition to humiliate United once again. For Bayern this match was like walking in the park, not at United house. This cannot be separated from the difference in pressure felt by the two teams, Bayern is in a safe position while United must win the match, and must pray that the Copenhagen versus Galatasaray match ends in a draw. For Ferguson, It became cataract to see Ten Hag manage his former club like that. |

Arsenal is playing first and I think this is a great advantage as if they win they let the pressure on all other teams and all other teams come not from that great results.This consolidates their position in the top of the standings in the Premier League as I doubt that they will be stopped by a team like Luton.Arsenal better than every other team knows very well that these games are dangerous as they lost the Premier League last season in big impact because of that draw at home against Southampton at that time and I am sure they have learned their lesson that every game is a final no matter who you are playing against when you are fighting for the title.
No team in the Premier League can be neglected. Because Premier League matches are very competitive. And we often see relatively small teams defeating larger teams. This is why Arsenal will have to play very carefully against Luton Town. Luton Town is a very weak team. And their chances of winning against Arsenal are slim. However, if Arsenal make any mistakes in the match, they are likely to lose. This is why Arsenal have to play very carefully. Especially the defense should be kept strong. Getting points against Luton Town will not be a difficult task for Arsenal if Arsenal's defense is strong. It makes sense, underestimating your opponent will make you suffer, and Arsenal must manage their confidence well in the match against Luton Town. Liverpool and Man City are always ready to overtake their position, I think Arteta really understands the consequences if he is tripped by Luton. On paper, The Gunners have many advantages and I am sure Arteta squad can secure full points this time. Even though it's not easy, I don't see Luton being able to trouble Arsenal this time, even though we know very well that Luton will not stand idly by and let Martin Odegaard and his colleagues abuse them in front of their own supporters. I saw the confirmed line up, Arteta was serious in this match, he used all the resources he had. It seems that Arteta wants a quick win and then rotates his main players in the second half, if the scenario goes according to plan. |

Xabi Alonso cool touch drastically changed Leverkusen performance, which has become a new force in the Bundesliga and even Europe. Borussia Dortmund managed to stop Leverkusen brilliant run, Leverkusen winning streak stopped after only being able to draw in the last match played. Leverkusen have still avoided defeat this season, they are still in top form and so far as has been shown in 13 Bundesliga games, Xabi Alonso's troops are still the strongest challenger to Bayern Munich in the title race this season.
Bundesliga could be resumed in this: Bayern Munich win all the time, they have always one competitor per season, whenever a team rise, another one drop between Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig and Bayer Leverkusen mainly. There is a random team that pop-up a season then drop, this time it is Stuttgart. Borussia Dortmund this round did a favour to Bayern Munich after slowing down Xabi Alonso and Bayer Leverkusen steps toward the title and allowed them to get the draw once they win vs epic fail Union Berlin. So, Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen currently have 2 draws but ya, at least Bayern Munich still have one match pending. But indeed, although there seems to be no definite guarantee for Bayer Leverkusen to get the trophy but ya, at least Xabi Alonso has managed to make Bayer Leverkusen break the club record this season. Because anyway, great appreciation is also certainly given to Xabi Alonso for managing to make Bayer Leverkusen unbeaten in all competitions so far. Therefore, although in the last match Bayer Leverkusen was held to a draw by Dortmund, but for me such a result is still a good result for Bayer Leverkusen. Luck is still on Laverkusen side thanks to Xabi Alonso hot hand. Their statistics continue to rise all the time, there has been no negative side shown by Xabi and his squad so far, topping the Bundesliga, Europa League standings and qualifying for the last 16 of the DFB Pokal. In these three competitions, Laverkusen has not been defeated, an achievement worthy of praise. To come to a conclusion, whether at the end of the season Laverkusen will be champions or not, I think it is still too early to guess. The way Xabi polished the club to such an extent is what is more interesting, I think all managers envy him in the sense of wanting to be like Xabi. The management applied to the players, the approach and chemistry of Xabi and the players made the plan run smoothly. I think even if Laverkusen fails to win in the future, Xabi has attracted the interest of a number of big clubs to recruit him in the future. |

Victor Osimhen extending his contract at Napoli is something I never expected to happen after everything that happened with the striker and the club. I feel this player is just doing it for the money and I don't think he would stay beyond 2025 and the clause attached to his contract is going to be around $100m, but it hasn't been signed.
Well if he's not doing it for the money I think Napoli board doesn't want to lose on both side just like what's happening at PSG, I really just wish a better club would come and get him before the start of January transfer.
Yes, it would be a shame if Osimhen extended his contract at Napoli. Because ya, ofcourse it would be better for Osimhen to play at a better and big club out there that atleast, has good results also in the Champions League in every season and not only good in the domestic league. Osimhen is still young so of course, it would be more appropriate if Osimhen left because I am sure, if Osimhen leaves of course Osimhen will also get paid handsomely. Therefore, if for example Osimhen extends his contract at Napoli, I amsure it has nothing to do about money. Osimhen contract extension has been in the works since last summer, but so far I have not seen the agreement happen. The Napoli president and management want to keep the striker for a long time, after seeing how important he is to the club. However, in reality, even though Osimhen still has a contract until June 2025. I think Napoli want to renew the contract to increase the release clause, which means clubs interested in signing Osimhen will have to provide a large amount of money. That's a natural thing, considering that there are very few pure strikers as good as Osimhen at the moment, in fact we saw how persistent Bayern were in chasing Kane signature yesterday, because they know that if there is quality there is a price to pay, I think so too with Osimhen . On the other hand, there are several European clubs who are very interested in him at the moment, such as Chelsea, Arsenal and Madrid. But for now it's all just rumors, we will see how Osimhen future contract with Napoli develops. I definitely think that sooner or later Osimhen will move from Naples. |

Newcastle was definitely better than Manchester United and deserved to get three points out of this game. Ten Hag has to be fired by the new owner of Man United.
Man United showed that their players were lazy not ready to work hard when Rashford got the chance. Just look he was only able to shoot on target once until the second half was over. This is clearly a disappointment that embarrasses Man United. Erik Ten Hag is completely unsuitable to lead Man United and he must realize that. Man United is still doing terrible, if they didn't lose they would be tied to fifth position and now they are at seventh position behind Newcastle, winning this game would have been quite important for them but it didn't happned. They really need to figure out how they could get better, Aston Villa is fourth, do we really think that Man United and Aston Villa are both playing fairly and equally? Aston Villa has so much lesser amount of money to build a squad with, they barely spend the whole season buying players for a single player that United buys, unequal amounts, and yet United is doing worse, that's basically saying United is underachieving their season so far and needs to do a lot better, they may even be out of European competitions all together soon. It is not only about the position they have today, I think this could also be the beginning of the end of their goals for this season. The next game is against Chelsea and they are tough to have an opinion on. Perhaps they can beat Manchester United at Old Trafford or they have a weak game again, but if Manchester United loses that game and they miss to qualify for both the next round of the Champions League and the Europa League, I assume that the time has come for ten Hag to leave the club. I think we will find out before Christmas. It is clear that if United fails to qualify for the round of 16 or the Europa League play offs, Ten Hag time at United is over, simply put, management will have to fire him. The match against Chelsea was quite strange for me, considering the ups and downs in performance of both clubs this season. Both Pochettino and Ten Hag are under enormous pressure at the moment, and neither is immune from criticism from fans. It's understandable, considering the money they spend on players but we don't see much progress. I don't think United and Chelsea will reach the top four, but regardless, we'll see how they play at Old Trafford. Personally, I can't predict who will win this time. Playing at home doesn't guarantee a win for United, and Chelsea inconsistency frustrates me. They held City to a draw but then lost to Newcastle. Overall it is very difficult to understand these two elite clubs. |

I totally agree that PSV are literally unstoppable. Because they have won all of their 14 games played in the league until now. They are incredible in offense and defense at the same time. It started to seem to me like they have changed roles with Ajax. Because Ajax also had this kind of solid seasons but I just don't know any of their starts was this huge.  PSV are really good at balancing the Eredivisie and Champions League at the same time also. Maybe they might not see more than last 16 in the Champions League but still it is a good success. Thankfully Ajax are also on a great streak in the Eredivisie without a loss for many weeks. There is a huge point difference between the Champions League area and them though but they can at least join a competition by finishing in much better place.  PSV have swept all their matches in the Eredivisie this season with a win. their statistics are impressive, with 50 goals scored in 14 matches. this is an incredible record, and shows that PSV is too tough for any team. Last season, PSV finished as runners up behind Feyenoord. but this time, they look more than ready to win the title. on the other hand, it could be said that PSV have also confirmed their place in the round of 16 of the UCL, simply playing a draw when facing Sevilla. I think they will fight further than just the top 16. Ajax have had a tough season so far, but they are starting to show improvement in form. Ajax still has a chance to improve their position in the points table. they need to continue to be consistent so they don't fall into the degradation zone again like yesterday. |

Man, the only hope Al Nasrr can have to reach Al Hilal is Al Hilal fall by his own, because there is not another possibilitie, the other teams in the league are very weak to cut points, so only 4 teams can steal some points from them.
For me personally, although Al Nassr has Ronaldo in the squad but yes, for me it still cannot be a guarantee for Al Nassr to be easy to get the trophy. Also, when I get the results about Al Hilal who managed to be unbeaten so far this season in the Saudi Pro League, then I think these results are a guarantee that Al Hilal has a very good chance of getting the Saudi Pro League trophy this season. What's more, Al Hilal managed to beat Al Nassr with a score of 3-0 and yes, that result makes me even more confident about Al Hilal in this season to get the trophy and they deserve it. Al Hilal is an unrivaled force in the Saudi Pro League, even Al Nassr was just defeated without being able to move. Ronaldo and his colleagues were beaten mercilessly and failed to provide any meaningful resistance. other clubs in the SPL can only hope that Al Hilal experiences a decline in performance. in the future, we can only hope that one of them can stop Al Hilal in the second half of the season. The competitive level of the SPL is still far from expectations. The current difference in points shows that most clubs are still not performing optimally, even though we both know they have star players in the team. However, for me personally, I think this is still normal, because SPL is in the early stages of its development. The SPL needs time to develop and become more competitive, with their abundance of money I think this is quite easy to make happen. |

Yes, that's right, because competition in the European League is just as fierce as in the Champions League, Newcastle is indeed an elite clubs in the EPL, but we don't forget that Liverpool is also competing in the European League, so if Newcastle is relegate from the Champions League, it will make competition in the European League even more competitive for us. will see elite clubs fighting to show their best performance and don't forget that Leverkusen will be the difference this season and will be a challenger for the big EPL club in fighting for the European League title this season.
Sevilla chances of entering the Europa League are very slim because in the Champions League group phase Sevilla is at the bottom and has the fewest points. Even though Sevilla is very experienced in the Europa League, it look like this season Sevilla will not be there so this is good news for the clubs that currently competing in the European league.
Newcastle being a strong team this season has been able to uphold the challenges of both the domestic and the continental leagues. They've made the contest and matches with others teams very much competitive, they're really doing more than expected. They kept up in overlooking their injury worries and put out a fierce game that PSG luckily came out from. Still last weekend, they were able to get a win from their game with United. They are performing at their peak and if unluckily they get relegated to Europa League, then I believe they'd be able to see through the challenge that the other teams may bring and they may get to a reasonable point in the tournament. Sevilla has in their own a far less chance of either advancing in the league or relegating to Europa, they're slacking in their games and if it means them loosing a spot in the continental tournament, then they just have to sit up to give beetter performances in the domestic league. Weekend wasn't so bad for them, they gave their best and played really well and the result was positive. If Sevilla misses the Europa League then that will be good news for all the existing favorite teams. I think Sevilla have a mentality and a secret weapon when playing here. regarding Newcastle, they look like a club that has experience at European level, even though we know that they have been absent from the UCL for 20 years, if they are eliminated here, then they deserve to be alongside Liverpool and Laverkusen in the list of favorite team. Their efforts in the UCL were truly impressive, in the sense that it didn't matter who they faced, even PSG were almost beaten for the second time. I think, if Eddie Howe hadn't faced a storm of injuries, perhaps PSG would have been shipwrecked yesterday. Newcastle destiny this season seems to be in the European League, but their steps will be determined first by beating Milan. If PSG qualify, then their journey will begin in the play off round, and we will see who their opponents are then, before further predicting their fate. |

I think the situation is reversed, because if Arsenal wanted Vlahovic in the last summer window. they can do it, Arteta is in a condition that is supported by the club management. but in fact, Arteta did not take action to bring Vlahovic to the Emirates Stadium last summer. in fact, what happens is the opposite. In fact, Arsenal actually brought in David Raya instead of Vlahovic. at that time, I couldn't understand the steps taken by Arteta and Edu. even though it is very clear that Arsenal lacks a pure striker who can be relied on rather than Nketiah. I hope Arteta brings Vlahovic in the last summer transfer window. however, this did not happen.
Its better for Arsenal to sign Black Haaland than Vlahovic, Osimhen has show outstanding performance in Napoli, the problem is Napoli might don't want to sell Osimhen. I think Arsenal could find a new striker from their Academy just like how they create Saka become as good as right now. Nketiah isn't that good, Gabriel Jesus is better than him. I feel like Arsenal has a plan to sell Nketiah. It could be said that Napoli are reluctant to let Osimhen go because of his price, Maybe it would be a different story if the offer submitted could fill Aurelio De Laurentiis pockets completely, I think that makes sense. However, the competition is not easy, with very few number 9 players currently available, I mean the quality is no longer in question. Many top European clubs are chasing his signature too, and are even prepared to shell out the fee demanded by Napoli. I also assume that Arteta and his club Arsenal already have an attraction in the eyes of star players, as management is serious about spending a large budget on buying players, this shows that they are serious about building a team, setting clear ambitions to win the EPL title under Arteta leadership. On the other hand, by not underestimating Vlahovic quality in terms of scoring goals, Arteta would be better off recruiting Osimhem. I also think that Gabriel Jesus and Nketiah are not enough to be the difference in the front line, Arteta needs a striker like Halaand at Man City. |

We are the same, to be honest I also have a lot of concerns about this match because in the early minutes of the first half Dortmund managed to form an advantage by scoring the opening goal of the match, it was the first threat from Dortmund for Leverkusen, I don't know what the problem is that makes Leverkusen difficult to catch up, even to be able to equalize Leverkusen had to take a long time which in the end midway through the second half they were able to equalize 1-1.
This is completely unexpected, I was very optimistic from the start that somehow Xabi Alonso would definitely be able to win three points in this match, honestly I don't feel my expectations are too high but it seems like there are a few mistakes made by Leverkusen there maybe, and also on the other hand if we look at the statistical results of this match Leverkusen is far superior to Dortmund in terms of ball possession and opportunities on the front lines, meaning that Dortmund really has a very strong defense so that in 23 shots Leverkusen only managed to get one goal. Of course this is a favorable condition for Bayern Munich, however Tuchel will definitely maximize the next match to get the full three points and shift Leverkusen's position, I think the Bundesliga this season is very interesting.
For me, even though the Laverkusen versus Dortmund match ended in a draw, Xabi squad is still a title contender. we will see Laverkusen meeting with Bayern Munchen and Dortmund in the second round once again in the future. I thought Laverkusen would be able to win easily over Dortmund yesterday, which is natural because I remember Bayern had beaten them 4-0. however, this assumption is wrong, although not completely, meaning that Xabi and his squad can still avoid defeat. I think, Tuchel still has one match postponed, meaning it is very likely that he will succeed in bringing his club to level points with Laverkusen. on paper the match against Union Berlin is quite easy for Kane and colleagues, as you said the competition in the Bundesliga this season has become very interesting, I agree with that. I admit that Laverkusen position will be threatened by Bayern in the future, but I think that is what makes the Bundesliga interesting. Dortmund is considered unstable in disrupting Bayern dominance this season, therefore the hope for this competition to become more interesting lies with Xabi Alonso fleet. |
