The fact that Inter are still outside the European zone in the standings means that Inter will need more effort to compete with Napoli. Yes indeed, it is not wrong if you are a fan of Inter who has continued to support Inter throughout the season, but at least we must also accept the fact that this season Napoli are the better team.
Even though Napoli is not your favorite to win the Serie A title, but in fact Napoli are already the favorites to win the Serie A title this season because they have had a great performance so far unbeaten.

If Napoli are only good in Serie A but bad in the Champions League then of course Napoli's consistency will be considered, but because as far as Napoli get good results for Serie A and also the Champions League. This will certainly make Napoli have the ability to be able to maintain consistency in Serie A although indeed, for the Champions League I admit that Napoli still does not have strong evidence to be a title candidate in the Champions League event.

Brighton's performance decreased because Graham Potter was taken by Chelsea, if Brighton was still coached by Graham Potter then surely Brighton would still be fine so far. But because this has happened and can't be avoided, and even though Brighton is currently still in the top ten in the standings, but because their performance continues to decline, of course, Brighton may only slowly struggle in the bottom ten in the standings.

I just don't think Brighton will suffer such a worrying drop in form after Graham Potter's departure and also, Graham Potter can quickly manage to put in a good performance for Chelsea. So it is clear, although at first did not fully believe Graham Potter will quickly provide positive changes for Chelsea, but so far at least Graham Potter can really show his quality as a great coach.

Therefore, with the return of Chelsea to get a great coach then this away match for Chelsea I believe will be completed with a win for Chelsea. Also, to end the final result in a draw when Chelsea played against Brighton, because of their last three matches in head to head the result was a draw and with a low score.
That means Brighton is not a weak opponent at all, but because at this moment Brighton is still difficult to get his best performance, then Brighton will still find it difficult to hold Chelsea, especially Graham Potter, of course, knows very well about Brighton's characteristics.

About Mbappe it looks bad, but after they can return to play well and compact between Neymar and Mbappe. So I think the problems that occur between them and of course with the team as a whole, the problem is not as bad as imagined. Because after all, if their problems are very bad then of course it will be difficult for them to reconcile and it will be difficult for them to play with good cooperation.
But in reality they are still easy to control and problems in the team can still be resolved quickly. Therefore, I think the problems that occur will still not affect their performance in the Champions League because after all, the Champions League is their main target which of course they will work hard to be even better in the Champions League this season.


Yes indeed, because even playing twice against Benfica in the group stage in fact PSG is still difficult to win. Moreover, in the round of 16, quarter-finals and the next round, PSG will play against top teams who are indeed title candidates.
With such a performance, of course, PSG will still find it difficult to reach the Champions League final. But that doesn't mean PSG completely lost the opportunity because after all, PSG have a chance to reach the final match but to get there is certainly not easy not only for PSG but also for all teams.

Yes, that's what I said about Empoli and Atalanta having the same result in their last three matches. But of course, even though they had the same result in the last three matches, they played against different teams and different scores as well but with the end result is the same like losing, winning and drawing. But these factors still can't fully guarantee that they have the same strength at this time, and also considering Atalanta who were previously in second place and now Atalanta are in fourth place.

This incident became a rapid decline for Atalanta because the teams below were constantly lurking and therefore, if Atalanta did not want this to happen again then playing against Empoli is mandatory for Atalanta to win. Because if Atalanta lose it will certainly be worse, because Atalanta could have been knocked out of the European zone quickly.
But anyway, I personally believe that Atalanta will certainly win and succeed in defeating Empoli, because on paper Atalanta are indeed better, but that doesn't rule out the possibility of a draw and/or surprises that Empoli might overcome in this match.

Anyway, as the current status of a rich team for Newcastle, of course they will be able to compete at the top of the English Premier League standings. Because their target is to finish in the top four because if they manage to play in the Champions League next season, then it will be easy for them to sign star players.

The rise of Newcastle this season is a continuation of the previous season, because the previous season Newcastle only struggled to get out of the relegation zone. In fact, Newcastle can end the season in the middle of the standings, while in reality Newcastle at that time seemed to have no ability to bounce back. Also, the owner of the club at the time would have accepted it if Newcastle had to be relegated first as a process, but the reality was not as bad as imagined.

So, by continuing to have great progress like this then of course Newcastle can no longer be underestimated because in the future, Newcastle will be able to become a team that in the track for the Premier League title and I'm sure that will happen very soon.

Basically Barcelona's current problem is only with their coach, if Barcelona has the right coach then with the composition of players that Barcelona currently has, I believe the Barcelona squad is already supporting them to win many titles. If Barcelona is back to being able to win many titles and regain their best form, then surely the financial problems they have experienced so far will slowly improve as well. But because their performance is still bad then of course, their financial problems are not getting better and of course it is a very worrying problem because it is very close to bankruptcy.

Barcelona so far although they look good in La Liga but for other tournaments Xavi still can't rotate players properly, even in La Liga Barcelona's position may still be difficult to win the title because Xavi really doesn't have good progress from time to time.

So if I bet and pick Arsenal -1.5 or -2.5 does that mean I'm underestimating Nottingham? or should I bet on Nottingham because I can't underestimate the opposing team?
Even though I bet on Arsenal, that doesn't mean I underestimate Nottingham completely.

I think it's natural that many of them say Arsenal will win because after all, luck for Nottingham will also not necessarily happen again in this match and also on paper Arsenal are predicted to win and that is reflected in the odds currently available. Because if I consider the situation and condition of the Arsenal and Liverpool teams, of course they have differences, and I can admit that Liverpool do sometimes lose by weak teams on paper and that result also sometimes happens in the Champions League and or in other tournaments.

But I think at this moment Arsenal is a different team with Liverpool, because Arsenal still have a better progress so far, compared to Liverpool who are still struggling to get back to their best form. Also, because in the previous match Arsenal were held to a draw by Southampton, and made the points gap with Manchester City even closer. So of course, with this pressure, I'm sure Arsenal will be able to take advantage of the opportunity against Nottingham who are indeed a team in the relegation zone at the moment, Arsenal will maximize it to win in order to maintain its position at the top of the standings.

Lol, even I won't be sure to watch it for the Inter match, because of course Inter will win against Plzen yesterday, because Inter are also playing at home which of course Inter will win the match. Therefore, I was even sure long before the match started, that Barcelona would be eliminated as happened for Juventus. They both have had problems with the wrong coach, because if I consider the squad they have they should have gone further in the Champions League this season. But sadly, their coach is a complete mess because even though Xavi did well in La Liga but Xavi didn't succeed in the Champions League, and for Allegri it was a very chaotic coach.

But regarding Barcelona and Juventus, it seems that they still have different fates in this European tournament, because Barcelona has been eliminated in the Champions League but Barcelona is certain to continue to play in the Europa League. But for Juventus, because currently Juventus' points are still the same as Maccabi Haifa, it is still uncertain whether Juventus will continue to the Europa League or not.
If in the last match Maccabi Haifa, for example, got points and Juventus lost, then of course Juventus would be completely eliminated from the European competition. But because PSG and Benfica will certainly still be competing to win the group, then of course PSG and Benfica still have a chance to win and if that happens then Juventus will continue to advance to the Europa League.

Real Madrid's odds are currently only @1.2x and obviously those are very low odds, more so Real Madrid will play at the Santiago Bernabéu. Even though it's not a problem to bet on the Real Madrid moneyline but it doesn't feel right at such odds, because after all this is a match that Real Madrid will surely win with a wide goal gap.
So instead of betting big money but low return due to low odds, I think it would be better to choose other options like Real Madrid -1.5 @1.58 and maybe for -2.5 @2.43, I think that option is still promising for Real Madrid got it.

Because at the same time, Real Madrid also still has to win the match to keep away from the team that is in second place, because of course it would be better for Real Madrid to have a fairly wide point gap so that the position at the top of the standings will be safer.
Also, anyway this is a very good opportunity for Real Madrid as a way of venting their anger because they were previously beaten by Leipzig with a score of 3-2. Although it may not have any impact, but usually the big teams when they lose in different tournaments they will be able to continue their unbeaten trend in the local league (La Liga).

I don't know what happened during the match until Lazio lost badly with a score of 5-1 by Midtjylland, if Midtjylland actually has a better way then Lazio certainly will not be easy to take revenge. Because a score of 5-1 is a very big score and it's like when a top team plays against a mediocre team, it's really unpredictable because even in this group the competition will still continue until the last round because until now they have the same points.
I personally am not completely sure Lazio will win in this match, but to bet on the total goals and or choose the option of both teams to score I think it will be a good bet in this match.


Yes, about Manchester United they just need a draw but I'm sure they don't just rely on that factor. At least if Ronaldo plays in this match then of course Ronaldo will have the ambition to make a lot of goals. But even if Ronaldo doesn't score, Manchester United will still play with the target to win and that's for sure, because Manchester United is a big team that must win this time.

It doesn't matter how Conte places them because if the problem is only with those two players, I personally still strongly believe that Tottenham will win this match. Because for me, if Tottenham's problem is only with them, then how about Bournemouth's problem, and don't Bournemouth have a problem at the moment? whereas they seem to have a more difficult problem at the moment than Tottenham.

Although indeed, all teams certainly have the pressure they experience but because Tottenham are a better team in terms of quality than Bournemouth. Surely Tottenham will be able to overcome the problems they experienced and return to playing well, because the defeat they experienced earlier by Newcastle, at least requires them to be able to get points in this match.

Yes, Arsenal is predicted to win in the match against Nottingham but I am really confident that Arsenal at this moment will not have as bad luck as Liverpool. It was something funny and maybe also surprising when Nottingham managed to beat Liverpool, but for the next match Nottingham will play away. Maybe it will be a differentiating factor for Nottingham too, moreover Arsenal will not look down on all teams and they can play with the same strength even though the opponent is Nottingham who are currently bottom of the table.

I didn't see this live match until the end but indeed, it was very visible from the face of Lewandowski who was so disappointed even more so when Lewandowski was ready to take a penalty kick. But in the end the referee decided it wasn't a foul after seeing the VAR, so the penalty for Barcelona and the yellow card for de Ligt were cancelled. Lewandowski was really very emotional in this match but he was able to hold it or close it because after all, joining Barcelona was also his choice so Lewandowski had to be ready to accept the risk.

But apart from Lewandowski's disappointment and of course for the whole Barcelona team, I personally think that Barcelona do need a better coach. Because if I consider the quality of players, basically Barcelona have above average quality players, if Barcelona is coached by an exact coach then I think the strategy and player rotation that is applied will give a good final result for Barcelona as well.

Yes, even Leicester's three wins so far have only been obtained when Leicester only played against teams that are ranked lower in the table. The teams Leicester have beaten so far are Nottingham, Leeds and Wolves and they are the teams currently in the bottom three standings for the relegation zone. Also, the teams that have managed to draw Leicester so far are Crystal Palace and Brentford, they are teams who are also in the middle of the table.

So yes, Manchester City should not have a big problem in this match and of course, Manchester City will still win because they also have to continue to gain points because the competition at the top is still tight.

Regarding the match between Arsenal v Nottingham it is clear it will result in full points for Arsenal and in fact, the current odds for Arsenal are only @1.1x - 1.2x and those are very low odds which is certainly very possible for Arsenal to win. Therefore, we will try to find other options for betting such as handicap options, correct scores and also wins in half time and many other options that I think are still possible for Arsenal to achieve.

Considering Arsenal have had a good effort so far in the first half then I think if we bet on the result at half time it will also at least give us higher odds. But about a big win with a wide goal difference too I think Arsenal are still very likely to do it so yes, for example for a full time bet with a handicap of around -2.5 it might also be fine.

Their last three previous match records were the same with a loss, win and draw, and for their last three head to head records they were also at least equal to Empoli winning, Atalanta winning and then drawing.
With a record like this of course Empoli can't be underestimated at all and their head to head record is at least a draw for them to dominate, but what's interesting about their head to head is to get the win by way of an away match.

If this trend can still happen again in this match, then of course Atalanta will win because considering their performance so far, of course Atalanta do have a better chance to win.
But even though Empoli can play well I'm sure Empoli still can't beat Atalanta this season, but Empoli can still target for a draw because Atalanta will also certainly still strengthen its current position because Atalanta lost by Lazio in the previous match.

But somehow according to some sources I got that Napoli really wanted to sign Ronaldo, I'm not sure Napoli really needed Ronaldo. Because I think, Ronaldo will only be an obstacle for the gameplay that has been applied to the Napoli team completely will stop if Ronlado becomes their squad. Because when Ronaldo enters the match, automatically all the passes will only focus on Ronaldo, while Ronaldo will get tight guard by the opponent's defense and this will make deadlocks will often occur.

If Napoli just want to increase merchandising sales, I don't think it's necessary to spend a lot of money just to sign Ronaldo. Because it would be better for them to consistently win the title, at least with an achievement it will also increase merchandise sales and will also increase their income if they can indeed win the Serie A title and shine in the Champions League.

In addition to the missed moment, Lewandowski also did not choose the right team, because at first Barcelona was in a difficult situation. But indeed, if for example this season Lewandowski managed to give many titles to Barcelona, ​​then Lewandowski still has a chance to get the Ballon d'Or. But because as it was said that Barcelona were eliminated from the Champions League, then of course it would make the chances for Lewandowski to win the Ballon d'Or have been reduced.
So in this case, I don't think Lewandowski needs to focus on getting the Ballon d'Or. Because after all, personal rewards will come if the player can give all the abilities he has to contribute greatly to every title that the team gets.

So yes, speaking of the Ballon d'Or it is not easy because there are many other talented players who are in a better team. But one thing that does become a benchmark is, about the treble winner for the team where they or the candidate for the Ballon d'Or are in it.
Therefore, considering the current situation of Barcelona even though it looks good in La Liga so far but still, it is difficult for Barcelona to be able to get a treble winner this season so Lewandowski's chances of winning the Ballon d'Or are indeed low.

Don't only focus on the big teams in the group stage of the Europa League, because in the next round there will be big teams that are also thrown out of the Champions League and will play in the Europa League.
So the competition is not only for Arsenal, Manchester United and Roma and even, Roma didn't look good in the group stage. Therefore, big teams with great coaches still do not guarantee they will easily advance further in European tournaments, because there will always be unexpected moments that ultimately make these favorite teams get eliminated early.

Not only that, even the previous holders of the Europa League title were Eintracht Frankfurt and in fact, Eintracht Frankfurt was not a strong team nor was it the favorite team to win the title but in the end Eintracht Frankfurt was able to win the title for the Europa League the previous season.
So, the favorites in the Europa League do not completely guarantee they will win the title easily, because even though Arsenal are looking good so far they also have to share their focus on the Premier League. Moreover, they must have a balance between main players and substitutes with good quality, because if they do not have substitutes with good quality then the rotation of players they do will not have a big impact on maintaining the consistency of the team's performance.

It seems a little worrying if Napoli recruit Ronaldo, because Ronaldo is very ambitious for a personal record and can not play as a team fully. While currently Napoli are at the top of the standings and even, Napoli so far have not specialized in a player having a lot of goals. If Ronaldo is part of the Napoli squad then I'm afraid they will rely on Ronaldo to score goals, it will certainly be very worrying that Napoli's performance will decline.

But yes it's just a speculation because considering Ronaldo's recent attitude seems to be a concern that should be a serious consideration for the team that will sign him. We really won't know what will happen next because indeed, the gameplay in Serie A can be said to be not as fast as the gameplay in the English Premier League and of course it will be suitable for older players who still want to play.
But I personally really still don't believe Napoli will play like they are now if Ronaldo actually joins, but it's interesting to see whether the transfer of players will actually happen or not.

In fact in the first match when Marseille played at home and lost 0-1 by Eintracht Frankfurt, the result was that Eintracht Frankfurt could win at half time because the goal was created in the 43rd minute. Even though Merseille had been left behind by a score of 0-1 at half time, in reality Marseille did not could develop the game and even in the second half Eintracht Frankfurt were still able to dominate the match.

Even though Eintracht Frankfurt are currently bottom in Group D and I have said it before, even Eintracht Frankfurt can still overtake to the top because Eintracht Frankfurt only has a 3 point gap with Tottenham. Therefore, Eintracht Frankfurt will certainly be more motivated to keep winning and beat Marseille for the second time at this moment, while continuing the good trend of Eintracht Frankfurt in the head to head unbeaten by Marseille.


Well, regarding Marseille's performance in Ligue 1 also that Marseille is difficult to stay consistent which means, even though in the previous season Marseille managed to finish in second place but Marseille has a difficult habit of repeating it again in the next season (this season). There are two possibilities for Marseille this season, to finish in the top five at least to get tickets for the european tournament or not at all.

Since Ligue 1 only has three tickets to the Champions League and even then, only the top two teams are confirmed to play in the Champions League as one more place will decide through the qualifying rounds. Because if you say Marseille can finish in the top four, in reality it doesn't guarantee Marseille for the Champions League ticket, but only for the Europa League ticket and also the Europa Conference League if it finishes in fifth place.

Yes indeed, even the top teams that dominate the league from season to season are still likely to be held to a draw and also defeated. So yes, a result like this is certainly a reasonable result, moreover Arsenal also just got a very good performance at the beginning of this season which of course any result will still happen and it can happen randomly at any time and also by any team.
At least Arsenal can still rotate their players well because after against Nottingham, Arsenal will play away against Chelsea in the next match which of course won't be easy. Even though, for example, in the end, Arsenal did not win the title, but at least Arsenal have proven the revival they managed to do and will return to play in the Champions League next season.

Agree, it will be very regrettable if Ronaldo's move to another top team will only create conflict within the team. Because basically, Ronaldo is not ready if he only has to be a player who is on the bench longer. Can't imagine if Ronaldo moves to another top team in the January transfer market but Ronaldo is more often on the bench in his new team, then it will make his name bad because of his childish behavior.
Therefore, I have also said before that it would be better for Ronaldo to play in MLS or another league that is still ready to pay Ronaldo's high, or Ronaldo could choose to retire as a legend and to keep his name good.


The cases of Ibrahimovic and Ronaldo are very different.

Ronaldo who has the ambition to continue to achieve an achievement, then of course Ronaldo will want to play more often and want to play in a team that is part of the Champions League.

In contrast to Ibrahimovic, although Ibrahimovic is a top player, Ibrahimovic is no longer pursuing an achievement. At least as long as Ibrahimovic is needed and he can still play, then he will keep playing but Ibrahimovic has no ambitions for the highest achievement.

I just wonder why they are upset with Juventus because basically, in terms of calculations, Juventus no longer has a chance to qualify for the round of 16. Also, in their first match when Juventus played at home against Benfica, in fact Benfica can beat Juventus. In addition, PSG as the strongest team in this group, in fact PSG could not beat Benfica in the two matches they have lived in this group phase.

So yes, Juventus' defeat last night was indeed a very possible result and even, if for example Juventus could hold Benfica to a draw last night and/or win the match, in fact Juventus will still not qualify for the round of 16, because the calculations are still difficult and will not make Juventus to qualify.

Well, if we had realized this from the start, then of course they could accept the defeat experienced by Juventus, because what should have made the emotions rise was about Massimiliano Allegri. I don't know what Juventus expected with Allegri who has done such a terrible devastation to the team, but they still haven't tried to find a replacement until now.
But regarding Benfica, they really can't be underestimated this season because they look very ready to be able to compete with other top teams in the round of 16 later.
