I also predict that Poland will get a ticket to the next round, followed by Wales and Ukraine. In my opinion, these 3 countries have the potential to enter next. Judging from the statistics, these 3 countries were quite impressive in their last previous match. But they must be careful not to be careless in the slightest against their opponents because each country will play all-out with a few remaining tickets for the next entry.

I think so too and maybe Maurizio Sarri is also tired of managing clubs in Europe. There are still quite a lot of teams in the Saudi league that haven't got good coaches at European level and maybe they should start contacting Maurizio Sarri with this statement. The salaries of coaches in Europe and in Saudi Arabia are very different, Mourinho was even offered 30 million euros per season but he has rejected it for now and in the future he is still open to the opportunity to go to the Saudi league. Here money plays a full role in providing a strong foundation for the popularity of a league and Saudi Arabia will return to action starting in January.

Lazio is a great team in the serie A, the only problem with the club is that they concede goals alot and for a team to concede goals in most of their matches they might easily lose matches but notwithstanding that I see Lazio winning Salernitana in this match because they are far better than Salernitana who are rocking the bottom of the table in the relegation zone. Though this is football as anything can happen because Lazio isn't that consistent enough and Salernitana will look forward for a win in other to step up a bit from the relegation area. So as we are tipping Lazio to win we should also expect any drama in this match.

In the last four meetings, Rayo Vallecano was quite successful against Barcelona because they managed to win 3 times and one of them was successful when they played at Barcelona's home, but that is just a statistic that will be different in the next match because Barcelona has experienced quite a lot of improvement since last season.

Yes, the World Cup competition will last longer with more matches and more time to spend, in fact I agree with your opinion.
Even though it takes longer and the first few matches are considered qualifying matches, at least it can be said to be new capitalism.
In the sense that more money comes in because more matches will bring in more spectators who will buy tickets and affect the financial development of organizers and those who have businesses in the area around the stadium that is used.

Liverpool have been famous for coming back from a goal or two down to winning games. Will it be the same thing today if Man City open the scoreline or will they have to employ the tactics of all attack, less defense to avoid conceding a goal at all?
This games going to be tough but it's going to be a GG for sure.

I'm expecting same two to three goals when Paris Saint Germans host the visitors Newcastle United. Newcastle cannot even win against Chelsea tommorow and they expect a win against PSG? Thats a very big joke!
Newcastle have got to be the very first team that will be knocked out of Group F. The group of hell now seems predictable as the group stage gets to an end.

You can look at the paper and you can clearly see the difference between the two, Jon Jones has a lot of advantages over Stipe Miocic and Jon Jones's age, Stipe Miocic is 41, and Jon Jones is 36 which is a clear deficit Reach advantage Miocic got Reach: 80.0" (203cm) while Jones has Reach: 84.5" (215cm), fighting record Stipe Miocic got 20-4-0 (Win-Loss-Draw) 14 KO, 1 Submission, and 5 Decision while Jon Jones has 27-1-0, 1 NC (Win-Loss-Draw) with 10 KO, 7 Submission, and 10 Decision, for sure in this kind of stats in paper Jon Jones would likely win and got the edge on the odds,

Anyways, aside jokes now, I also think that this will be a very tough match as well, and right now, it is very difficult to predict which team will win at the end of the day, but personally, I would predict that Manchester city may likely win at the end, for I see them doing all they can to maintain their current position.

This is not to under-estimate Liverpool though. Liverpool may probably be preparing to take the first position, but for them to achieve this, they may have to put in alot of effort in their gameplay.

Correct. Even though Liverpool currently appear to be the favorites, actually the most difficult challenge or obstacle will be after the group stage is over. The joining of players who were eliminated from the Champions League also has to be another consideration. But in terms of current performance, Liverpool actually has almost the same performance as the clubs currently competing in the Champions League. The most important thing is that Liverpool must be able to maintain their current performance until the season ends. Because sometimes the more difficult challenge is maintaining the consistency of a squad. Sometimes player injuries can also be an unexpected obstacle.

Just because I leave the campaign doesn't mean I won't continue trying to surpass your weekly number of posts. It's not easy, but I'll try.
I'll be watching! 

By the way, why is Israel allowed to perform? I thought FIFA was against any country that invaded the other. At least that's what happened with Russia. Russia invaded Ukraine and Russia was literally not allowed to take part in the World Cup. But Israel is literally doing a genocide on Palestine. But no actions are being taken against them.

I want to see who will also go to Saudi Arabia when the transfer window opens.

Next, Roma will face Udinese in Week 13 of Serie A, this is an opportunity that must be utilized well to push into the top four of the standings, because Napoli and Fiorentina will face tough matches. I don't think Udinese is a tough opponent, because so far they have only been able to achieve one win in their 12 matches.

Alaves is the favorite, but although they look better than Granada, their strength is actually not much different, and thus Granada still has a good chance to get points from this match. Alaves don't have great goal productivity though, as they've only scored 11 goals in the 13 games they've played. On the other hand, Granada looks better in the attacking sector, but they also have a very fragile defense, they are the second most conceded club after Almeria with 30 goals that have been lodged into the net.

A team such as Brazil should not give the excuse of injury. If they are saying that absence of Neymar negatively impacting them, then they are relegating themselves to the level of Portugal, Belgium or Norway who are dependent on just one player. Argentina for example may not face much difficulty in winning matches even if Lionel Messi is absent. This is not something that we would expect from Brazil, who dominated association football for a long time. They have time till 2024 September to sort out the issues. If they are unable to do that even by that date, then things are not going to turn out well for them.

But however if it was Newcastle United against those clubs Newcastle United would have win them, because there performance this season is very impressive by also wining Arsenal on there match at least they have proven to be a strong team.

Dortmund who have the same goal as PSG, will never waste this opportunity, the home match will be a place for them to rejoice in their success in qualifying for the next round. There is still a lot of drama that will happen in group F, whoever will qualify will be the best club in group F, so far it is not certain who will qualify because all four teams still have the same chance.

I'm 100% sure he will be included in the next nominations, the only way to see Messi not include into nomination is he reject it or he officially retire from football.

Regarding if he win or not, that's a different discussions since it will depend on how much he can bribe FIFA.

I guess if Inter Miami become a champion in the next season, he will win Ballon d'Or.

This is still Manchester City though. We have seen what they can do in his absence even in the semi-final and final rounds of the Champions League.
