I wonder whether there will be any team to stop Real Madrid's high dominance in the La Liga this season. For now, Sevilla seem to be the closest team to do this. But they also are struggling to keep up with Real Madrid despite their consistency lately. They will just hope for Real Madrid to have a bad time period and they will need to keep winning to get close to them. I didn't like Sevilla's effort against Barcelona so they should do better.

Atletico Madrid are just in a terrible situation now. They lost all of their last four games in the La Liga. They even let Granada make a comeback against them. I really wonder how Atletico Madrid are going to find a way out of this poor shape. And Real Madrid continue from where they left. They are leading by 2-1 against Athletic Bilbao now. And I think they will win this one and atone for the point loss vs Cadiz.

I wonder whether Dortmund will be focusing on the Europa League to win the title. They are already getting away from their title chance in the Bundesliga now. They can still easily qualify for the Champions League though so they won't need to win the Europa League to join the Champions League. But still, they might want to win a decent title this season and this tournament is their chance.

Phoenix Suns are the most stable team in NBA now for two seasons. In the last season, they had a great time and reached even the final series. But they couldn't reach the championship and lost to Milwaukee Bucks by 4-2. But they are still playing very focusedly and we see them as the leader of the Western Conference currently. If they manage to make it to the final series again, I'll be wondering if they will be able to reach the championship this time.

West Ham wouldn't be an easy contender for spur even as conte Antonio is massively improving spurs performances. West Ham has been on their best keep up to 5th position on the table. It's barely few minutes to the start of match I hope west ham gets more easier for Tottenham has everyone is predicting
I have the same opinion as yours. West Ham also are one of the biggest teams this season. We have witnessed their great rise in the EPL standings so far. And I expect them to play very eagerly to defeat Tottenham even though it is an away game. Tottenham should play very carefully. Or they will most probably be eliminated from this cup. Tottenham are on the rise with the help of Conte and they should focus on keeping it going. |

For some reason, I thought that if Haaland does not make the transition in the summer, then it will be a great pain for me  For several months now, news and talk about a possible new club for Haaland has taken up much more space than discussion of his game (it deserves close attention). Hopefully in the summer he will make a choice and we will follow his records in a new place and not discuss the amount of compensation. It would be much better for Erling Haaland to make his final decision about to what club he would like to go until the summer transfer window. He shouldn't get stuck at Dortmund for the next season also. It would be perfect for him to go to a bigger club after this season ends. He is just wasting his talent at Dortmund. They are not a team being able to win even the Bundesliga title. A player like Haaland should be playing bigger than this. |

I'm happy for not placing a bet on Sevilla to win. Because considering the first half, things don't seem to be going on very good for Sevilla. Yes, they scored first and Barcelona found the equalizer before the end of the half. But there was a big dominance of Barcelona in this half. They found so many goal opportunities but were able to benefit from only one of them. One of Sevilla's two shots in total ended up with a goal. If they don't improve their effort, Barcelona might win this game.

Man City's toughest rival is probably Real Madrid to be able to get Erling Haaland. Real Madrid have shown their interest in signing Haaland,
but Real Madrid still has a lot of forwards. So they need to sell some of the forwards they have in order to bring in Haaland, because Haaland is
likely to ask for a high salary. So in order for Real Madrid to meet Haaland's request for salary, Real Madrid have to sell some of the forwards
who have high salaries. Apart from Real Madrid, there are many other big teams who are also rumored to want Haaland, such as Chelsea and
Bayern are also interested in bringing Haaland. So if Man City want to get Haaland it is not easy and must move quickly. We'll see if when
the transfer window opens, which team will make an offer to Dortmund to get Haaland.
Above all else, Real Madrid have Benzema. His big contribution to the team in this season so far is just indisputable. But there is a possibility that Benzema can leave the team at the end of the season as far as I know. Because of this, they want to fill his place with a great striker like Erling Haaland. And I believe that they are the number one candidate to make it for now. |

Levante just continue to help us watch great games for two weeks in the La Liga. Both of their games ended with a 4-3 result. Levante lost to Espanyol and Valencia with the same result and these could have been the biggest opportunities for them to get even two wins in a row. I still appreciate Levante's high effort on these weeks. At least, they are not giving up and trying to make it.
With 7 points required to get out of the relegation zone, they have to do their best although I didn't expect them to compete Valencia that way and score 3 goals after all. Tomorrow we have Sevilla - Barcelona with quite interesting odds 2.5 for home and 2.95 for Barca. Right now I am not sure Real Madrid fans will support which team  There is less than an hour for the Sevilla - Barcelona game now. And the odds are really interesting as you said. Actually, Sevilla are in a superb shape rather than Barcelona. There is a gap of ten points between them now but bookmakers still think that it will be a very close game. I think that they might have a point here so I won't be placing a bet on Sevilla to win this time. I'm just going to enjoy watching it. |

Maybe Tottenham had a very overwhelming ball possession percentage in the game against Altay but they still had a very hard time beating Altay by 2-1. Altay scored first but Tottenham were in no such intention to give up on the game. They turned the game around by a good effort. And they maintained their winning streak. Maybe Antalyaspor ended their unbeaten streak but they still are playing like they don't even care. Their disciplined look will carry team to the championship as it seems.

Inter have a great unbeaten streak now in the Serie A. They haven't been losing for ten weeks and won eight of those games. This impressive form carried them to the top and they are four points ahead of the second-placed team which are Napoli currently. And the next opponent is Torino. It is a home game for Inter firstly. This is already a big advantage for Inter actually. I think that they will win this game also.
we all know that a streak like that always has to stop at some point and it could happen when you least expect it, so for me it's better to avoid betting on Inter to win when the odds are low, I think it's better to bet on milan or Napoli to win. When it comes to betting on Inter to win, I will pass it definitely. Because I think that they have a big chance to win but I can't believe in them fully. And I know Torino as a capable team to upset some big teams. Actually, Torino couldn't defeat Inter in Giuseppe Meazza in the Serie A for five years. But we never know if it happens now and ends Inter's streak also. |

They finally made their certain decision about the Tottenham - Rennes game. And they awarded Rennes a 3-0 victory. Maybe people will criticize this decision a lot as the game could have been played on a date before the next round. And I'm also criticizing them. But maybe according to the rules, this was the right call at this point. The plus side for Tottenham is that they can focus more on the Premier League now. |

Sevilla got a really valuable 2-1 win against Atletico Madrid yesterday. They are five points behind Real Madrid and they have a missing game to be played also. Real Madrid - Cadiz game is still going on and there are only fifteen minutes to go. And Real Madrid still can't get ahead despite dominating the game completely. It is still 0-0 but they still have time. If Cadiz continue to maintain this till the end, it will be big disappointment for Real Madrid.

Tottenham vs Liverpool was a very superb match today. Conte's team is much better than their old version now. If Tottenham were still playing with their old game plan, Liverpool would have destroyed them by a big margin most likely. But thanks to the new system, they were almost defeating Liverpool. After a fierce fight, it ended up with a result like 2-2.

According to the current look of the league table, Napoli are getting ahead of Milan despite having the same points. Napoli scored an early goal and got 1-0 ahead. And they are still leading by the same score. Milan have had a really poor performance until now. But in the second half which is going on right now, I hope to see a competitive game. Milan should include themselves into the game also and fight for the equalizer.

I really liked especially Besiktas' performance in the huge derby game today. Fenerbahce should have won this game as it was their home game. But Besiktas' effective performance helped them always stay in the game and get one point by 2-2. And they were nearly winning the game also. Like most of the time, the decisions the referee made were open to question.

My favourites in every path are:
Path A: Wales would defeat Austria and Ukraine would do the same against Scotland. And after a Wales - Ukraine matchup, Wales would manage to qualify for the World Cup.
Path B: Russia would beat Poland and Czech Republic would do it to Sweden. And after a Russia - Czech Republic matchup, Russia would manage to qualify for the World Cup.
Path C: Portugal and Italy would succeed in defeating their opponents. And after a Portugal - Italy matchup, Italy would manage to qualify for the World Cup.
Your path is very good but still need some things to be clear as Wales can beat Austria and Ukraine can Scotland but after this it is not easy match both teams have equal chance. Here Russia is good side, but Poland is also having some good players, so any result can happen in other match Sweden is very good even Czech Republic is doing some good in recent time. Here in third we have most talked match is going to be played between the very good and talented teams Portugal vs Italy so here mostly people's favoring Italy but still anybody game. I think that Ukraine would advance in case we see a Wales - Ukraine game. They are more powerful than their opponent when it comes to scoring and they would make use of it nicely. And I'm not so sure about the Russia - Poland one. Poland might advance with the help of Lewandowski maybe. And for the last path, I agree with @Spack17 totally. |
