I really appreciate PSG's gigantic form in the Ligue 1 so far. They are playing like they are in a video game.  They have lost only once so far in 18 Ligue 1 games. And they won 14 of them. They have a gap like 13 points even with the second-placed team which are Marseille. The other teams including Marseille are having a very big difficulty in keeping up with PSG. And as there is a very wide gap in strength between PSG and any of the rest of the teams, it is not seen as a surprising thing. PSG journey in Ligue 1 this season is not too surprising for me, because all this time PSG has dominated Ligue 1 and with a star-studded squad about it is not surprisin if the competition in Ligue 1 right now is not competitive, because PSG rivals do not have strength to be able to balance the strengths of PSG, I think with the difference in points that are quite far now of course it can be ascertained that PSG will win the trophy with the difference in points far enough from the club that is in the runner-up position. |

The knockout phase for the Europa League this season is quite interesting, because we will see a number of big matches occur early, the preliminary match between Barcelona and Napoli can be said to be a big game of the European league, I think whoever can win the match later can be said to be a strong candidate to be able to penetrate the European league final this season.
The Europa League knockout stages first leg will start on 17 February 2022 and the second leg will take place on 24 February 2021.
Definitely. Especially the Barcelona - Napoli draw is going to be really interesting. It is like an early final round for this tournament too. I would have liked to see them having a matchup against each other in the final stage or right before that. Anyway, I reckon that Napoli can be seen as the closer to side to win taking the current efforts into account. But it is early to make a certain assumption already now. We will see the battle of the Spanish giants and the Italian giants in the European league match later, but I personally don't dare to claim that Barcelona will lose easily in the match against Napoli later, even though I really want to see Napoli move forward, but the match is still very long of course will give barcelona a lot of time to improve their squad in the januari transfer window, so yes I think it's better to see how the two teams move in the transfer market and then choose one of the teams to bet on  . |

Leicester v Tottenham has been postponed just as most people expected. There was no point in making big difficulties for both teams here. There were around fourteen players in total who have got coronavirus. And I see that there some other players also who got the virus at some other teams in the Premier League. This could turn to a really worrying situation which I wouldn't hope so.
Currently there are several matches that have been postponed and the tottenham match is the most postponed, so far tottenham has had 3 matches postponed namely against burnley, brighton and also leicester, the emergence of a new variant of the corona virus will certainly be very scary, and if this continues looks like we will see more postponements of matches in the English league, so the worst could happen with the suspension of this season competition. We hope that this pandemic will end soon, because it has clearly made the world experience a slump in every way  . |

I'm looking forward to watching the enormous match between Milan and Napoli in San Siro on this Sunday. There is no clear favourite team in a match like this of course. Even though Napoli have been in a worse shape than Milan in the recent times, their levels of strength are very similar to each other this season. Maybe Milan seem to have an advantage of playing home but anything can happen in a match like this I think. If I place a bet on something, I'd choose "both teams to score" option.
That's right, the match between AC Milan and Napoli is certainly nerve-wracking with prestige and competition for positions in the standings, currently AC Milan is in second place with 39 points, while Napoli is in 4th place with 36 points and whoever wins later will definitely make a position they are lifted, if milan wins they will automatically be able to shift Intermilan position in rank 1, while if napoli wins, of course they can coup milan and make milan back under napoli. |

I'm really sorry to hear that Aguero has ended his football career. He was definitely among the best strikers in history. His career at Manchester City especially was so exciting and superb that he is already one of the legends for Manchester City and the English Premier League both. It would have been awesome to watch him at Barcelona for at least one year also but he had no choice as he has heart problems unfortunately.
Heart problem was the reason he had to retire in his football career, and this is a strong blow for Barcelona who are targeting Aguero as a replacement for Messi in their attack, Aguero who has just joined Barcelona has played five games and scored one goal for Barcelona, I think Even though Aguero is now retiring from Barcelona, of course Manchester City fans have great sadness for Aguero, because after all Aguero has now become a living legend for Manchester City. |

As far as I know, Bayern Munich already stated that they were not going to go after the Erling Haaland transfer as they are more than happy about Lewandowski's current performance. Therefore, I think that this news could be just no more than rumours. Otherwise, I really don't understand what they are up to. Maybe they made a statement like that on purpose to finish the deal behind closed doors.
But reportedly now lewandowski has stated that he will look for new adventures at other clubs and he continues to be linked with manchester city and also real madrid, besides that bayern münchen have also confirmed the price of lewandowski if a club wants to buy him for 100 million euros, i think haalaand will Be a good alternative for Bayern Munich if indeed Lewandowski moves to another club later, besides that Dortmund, which has often sold star players, will certainly not hesitate to release Haaland if a big-money offer comes to them. It makes sense that Robert Lewandowski wants to look for a new challenge, because with Bayern Lewandowski has already won all the trophies. After all, Bayern in the Bundesliga is indeed too domineering, maybe because of that there are rumors that Robert Lewandowski will move to Man City or Real Madrid. I think Lewandowski can try a challenge in the Premier League, which is indeed the best football league in Europa right now, even a lot of strong teams in the Premier League. Problems Bayern want to release Lewandowski at a very high price, it seems very difficult to find a club that is willing to buy a player who is 33 years old at an expensive price. Because it's a bad investment if a club buys a 33-year-old player at an expensive price, so my prediction is that Lewandowski will stay with Bayern until his contract runs out. But if there really is a club that dares to buy Lewandowski at a high price, I agree Haaland is the most appropriate choice as a replacement for Lewandowski, especially since Haaland already knows the Bundesliga very well. So surely Haaland will adapt more quickly with Bayern. Yes right now haalaad has shown his capacity as the best striker in the bundesliga, and lewandowski is the only striker who may be haalaand toughest competitor in setting a top goal record in the bundesliga, indeed 100 million euros for lewandowski is an unreasonable price due to his age, but looking at his sharpness so far maybe that price is a reasonable price to let him go, a young haalaand would certainly be the right choice for munich to replace lewandowski at this time, but in my opinion, if you look at haalaand current appearance of course there will be other clubs who can also buy him besides Bayern Munich, and it's better for Dortmund to release Haalaand to another club outside the Bundesliga, so that then Bayern which is a true rival doesn't become stronger in the future. |

I predicted that both teams would have been able to score in the Arsenal v West Ham match. But unfortunately, West Ham couldn't score. But I was feeling like Arsenal would be closer to a victory and that was what happened last night. Arsenal dominated each half of the match and earned this 2-0 win absolutely. They are having a two-win streak now in the league and right behind Chelsea that are at the third place. However the gap is 7 points between them now. Westham who performed quite well against Liverpool and Chelsea, seemed to have lost their magic in the match against Arsenal yesterday, I saw that Westham defense yesterday was too easy for Arsenal players to penetrate and even if Arsenal players could take advantage of every opportunity that was there, of course the score more than 2 will happen in that match, but Iwas a bit surprised when arsenal got a penalty and also got a red card on a westham player, is it worth it? Because at first glance I saw that Vladimir Coufal feet only touched the ball. |

One of the factors is that he is still young he has enough energy so he can overcome obstacles no wonder for the next few years his name will always appear on the scoreboard
Dortmund also realized this so they kept Haaland in this transfer window, btw Haaland has not been able to surpass Robert Lewandowski in the top score list.
Currently lewandowski is the bundesliga top scorer with 18 goals, while haaland has only collected 11 goals from 10 matches, actually haalaand had the opportunity to equalize goals with lewandowski this season, but the injury suffered by haalaad forced him to miss many matches, I think with his young age Haalaand will be able to become the best player in the world in the next few years, and of course it will be a big loss for Dortmund if they are not able to keep Haalaand in the transfer market, but I still think Dortmund will let Haalaand go for money. |

I really appreciate Real Madrid's current performance even though they don't have Cristiano Ronaldo anymore. It has been around three and a half seasons since he left Real Madrid but they are still doing a great job. They are even much better in this season. We haven't seen the same from Barcelona after Messi's leaving for example. And in their tough draw against PSG, I've no doubt that they will give their best.
There is a slight difference between real madrid who lost ronaldo and also barcelona which messi left at this time, when ronaldo left madrid, at that time madrid condition was also a bit limp but fortunately they still have benzema who can replace ronaldo position well, while barcelona is quite long relying on messi, unable to find a suitable replacement when messi moved to PSG, and even fati and depay who are expected to be the next messi in barcelona have not been able to show their best game at the moment, besides that the club financial condition is currently in trouble, adding to the condition Barcelona is getting worse, and it's clear that Barcelona's current condition is worse than when Madrid lost Ronaldo in 2018. |

After drawing 2-2 with Osasuna last weekend, Barcelona will be looking to get back to winning ways in La Liga when they host Elche. Barca must get a win in order to move closer to the Champions League zone. Barcelona is still in the stage of improving its performance. In the last few games, the performance of Barcelona was very far from what was expected. Sometimes in one game Barcelona performance is quite good, but in the next game they played badly. Even though playing in his own cage, Barcelona chances of winning are very slim. Barcelona will certainly try to get full points in the match against Elche later, especially now that Barcelona needs points to be able to move up to a position to qualify for the Champions League next season, Elche who is at the bottom of the standings can be an easy opponent for Barcelona later, now this is barcelona problem lies in the blunt front line and we can see from several barcelona matches they average only scored 1 goal per game, now xavi must be able to maximize the performance of their forward players if they want to win against elche because in my opinion elche is a team that has pretty solid defense. |

The match between Frankfurt vs Gladbach will take place shortly thereafter. I look forward to enjoying this match. Now though the Frankfurt team is ahead of Gladbach in the points table. But I have seen their head to head statistics in the last match. Frankfurt have failed to win any of the last five matches between the two teams. Gladbach has won 3 matches. But I think today's match will be a draw. The match will probably be drawn 2-2.
The first goal of the match was scored by Gladbach. But Rafael scored in the 45 + 2 minute of extra time in the first half to level the score at 1-1 in the first half. And Lindstrom's goal in the 50th minute gave Frankfurt a 2-1 lead. Lindstrom has an assist and a goal. Both teams have a good chance of winning. Both teams are playing well enough, though with less attack In my opinion, it was a pretty exciting match, even though Gladbach has a fairly high ball control compared to Frankfurt, but Frankfurt is actually more effective in attacking in the second half right now, to be honest, matches like today are what I like in football, namely the team mutual attacks each other in to score a goal. Btw now the match has entered the 73th minute with the temporary score: Gladbach 2 vs 3 FrankfurtIf you look at the game of the two teams, it seems that it will be very difficult to guess which team will win at the end of the match. |

I have never thought that I would have ever seen Barcelona in the Europa League. Moreover, I would say that it must be a some kind of game bug if I come across this in Football Manager. I really like the new format of the Europa League. UEFA succeeded in creating a competitive and exciting league compared to the past.
Everyone must have the same shock as you, how could it not be, Barcelona, which has been known as one of the strong candidate teams to win the Champions League every season, has actually experienced a decline in performance this season and made them have to be ready to play in the UEFA second tier league, but I think that's a natural thing, because all teams must have a different bad phase every season and maybe this season is the worst phase for Barcelona in the European league competition, and even now many fans from rival Barcelona teams are making funny memes on the internet about barcelona drop to european league . |

Neither team played attacking in this match. Real Madrid went ahead with a goal in the first half. Atletico Madrid players should have tried to level the score by playing aggressively. But Atletico Madrid did not attack too much. It is impossible to win against a strong team like Real Madrid if you play in defense.
The game of the two teams was really far from my previous expectations, I thought the derby match would be quite exciting and mutually attacker, but in fact both teams seemed to be less aggressive in attacking, from 90 minutes of the match in my opinion only 20 minutes of the first half of the match and in the last 10 minutes of the second half of the match were quite tight and exciting, while the rest in my opinion the match was just ordinary and boring. We always have high expectations from derby matches. But the teams did not live up to our expectations. Real Madrid played to win. So they didn't take any jokes after scoring. They played defensively. On the other hand, even after conceding a goal, we did not see any good attack from Atletico's players. I was annoyed to see the match. Atletico Madrid, which has been known for its tough game, is not able to play well as usual when dealing with a team as big as Real Madrid, just like you, I seeing in that match it was seen that it was very difficult for Atletico Madrid players to stop the counter-attack launched by Real Madrid, I thought that after conceding the first goal, Atletico Madrid would get up and try to counterattack, but in reality they conceded the second goal and made the Atletico Madrid players panic even more. |

Manchester United fans might be a bit scared already facing Athletico Madrid.
Prior to this meeting,good thing they have Cristiano Ronaldo,as he holds the record of the only player that has an hat-trick against the defending champion's of La Liga.
Will Cristiano secure another hat trick against the Spanish giant's once more ?
This might seems to be a new era anyways.
At the moment Atletico Madrid's performance is also not in a good condition, moreover we know that Atletico Madrid are only lucky to be in the last 16 at this time if you see their journey in the group phase which is quite difficult. Of course, the January transfer market must be used by Atletico Madrid well to improve the quality of the current squad of players before facing Manchester United, I think Manchester United is starting to rise now, of course, it will provide a big enough resistance for Atletico Madrid, yes, the factor of having Ronaldo is certainly a factor advantage for Manchester United, but still the greatness of Ronaldo can not be separated from the support of his teammates so far. |

Bringhton will play a home match against the Wolves today. Brighton is a team that has drawn 8 out of 15 matches. Only 3 matches have been lost. Where teams like West Ham and Manchester United have lost 4 and 5 matches respectively. So my guess is that maybe Brighton will win today's match, otherwise they will draw.
Brighton and wolves only have one point difference at the moment, and both teams are both in the middle of the English league standings at the moment, brighton who has not won a single win in the last 10 matches seems to be trying to get back on track against wolves, especially now Wolves condition is not much different from Brighton, I see the condition of the two teams which are both equally negative, it looks like they will end the match with a 0-0 draw. |

Inter are really getting what they want by their performance so far. I though that Milan or Napoli wouldn't lose their lead for a longer time. But they started getting bad results earlier than I expected. And Inter have taken advantage of the situation great. The question is whether they will be able to pull away a little from the others sooner or later or we will see a different scenario this time.
If you look at AC Milan journey in the Italian League last season, of course you will understand that consistency is the main reason for AC Milan and other teams to slump after reaching the middle of the season and ahead of the second leg of the competition, from a few seasons ago, I often saw the leaders of the standings who were quite tough at the beginning of the season experiencing inconsistencies in their game towards the middle of the season, and in the end they got out of the race for the Scudetto due to various problems that occurred within the club, especially player injury problems as experienced by AC Milan last season . |

Some time ago, Martial agent had given a statement that Martial would soon leave Manchester United in January, Martial, who had difficulty getting a place to play in Manchester, was reportedly also in demand by Barcelona, but it seems that Atletico Madrid chances of getting Martial are even greater because apart from requiring a young striker to replace Luis Suarez who is starting to age now, Atletico also offers to trade players with Manchester United to get Martial and Athletico is ready to sacrifice Joao Felix, who has been in demand by Manchester United to get Martial in January. |

Sergio Aguero cannot continue his career at least until the end of this season. Reasons for heart health made him have to take the decision to retire. Aguero is an extraordinary player, it was a difficult decision, but his life and family also need to be considered. He is a legend, his achievements with City will never be forgotten.  source: IDNtimesGet well soon Aguero, best of luck with your next career. There are still plenty of positions you can fill without ever leaving football. A moment full of tears occurred when Aguero had decided to retire early from the world of football this season, it is a shame that the 33-year-old Aguero actually has the opportunity to play maybe about two more seasons, but the heart health suffered of course Aguero certainly forced him to take a pretty tough decision in his life, Aguero was one of the players who helped Manchester City so much in winning titles and he deserves to be a legend for Manchester City because of his great contribution to the club. |

Arsenal vs West Ham is the biggest match of the day. And I don't see any clear favourite side in this match. They both are decent clubs and it wouldn't be surprising if we see a draw at the end of this match. They both are having one of their best seasons in the recent years. And I'm confident that they will make a huge effort to score at least one goal in this. Therefore, both teams to score might be a good option to bet on.
Arsenal have the opportunity to shift West Ham United in the standings in today match, if Arsenal win of course they have the opportunity to get into the top 4 and this is an opportunity for both teams to improve in their position, Arsenal who performed quite well against Newcastle a few days ago certainly have high motivation because they are playing at home, while Westham, who has performed quite well so far, is certainly not an easy opponent for Arsenal to deal with, moreover, Westham performance this season is quite perfect in the league and European league, I think the match will end in a draw or a narrow victory for Westham. |
