Sevilla - PSV is another tough matchup in this round of the tournament.
Sevilla are known by a very successful team in the Europa League. They have 4 titles in last 10 seasons here. This is quite impressive and maybe scary for PSV. However the problem is that Sevilla are having a really bad season now. They are under the danger of relegating from the La Liga. Because their performance has been bad in not only the Champions League but also the La Liga. I don't think they would focus on the Europa League more at this point. They have no choice other than focusing on the La Liga matches to save themselves from the relegation zone. This might be an opportunity for PSV to take advantage of.
If they have to choose i think Sevilla will be more focus to avoid relegation zone and survive on Laliga than targetting europa league trophy this because if Sevilla relegated from Laliga i think they cannot able to playing at european competitions anymore so i am sure the current manager was already realized this that rather than playing at Segunda division for next season so it's better for Sevilla to failed on europa league than in Laliga and the opposite condition from PSV that this team joining race to gets Eredivise trophy with Ajax and Feyenoord and even they are in the good shape after finish on second position below to Arsenal and against Sevilla obviously PSV will aiming full points so this match almost certain will belongs to PSV |

Freiburg seem to be more successful than the previous season for now. There haven't been many players to leave the team compared to the previous season actually. Schlotterbeck was an important loss for the team of course. He joined Dortmund for 20 million euros and Freiburg lost a young talent in defense. Matthias Ginter was signed on a free transfer which was still a good job for them. Currently they are the second least conceding team in the league after Bayern Munich. Maybe Bayern Munich scored double the number of Freiburg scored but the gap between them is still only four points.
This is a good success for Freiburg but let's see how long they can keep this level. They barely missed the chance of finishing the season in top 4 while fighting with Leipzig for that. This time maybe they can finally achieve their goal even more comfortably.
So far only Freiburg is the nearest team to Bayern and 4 difference points actually not impossible to chased and Freiburg indeed performing well this season and i have to says they had good balanced to defense and offense but i think Freiburg have to improved more their performance because while against strong teams such as Leipzig or Bayern they cannot able to gets good results even lose with big scores but i can see some of Freiburg players such as Ritsu Doan has performing well during world cup so this indicated all of Freiburg players are in the good shape and next month they will starting the league against Augsburg i think Freiburg have good opportunities to win the match considering Augsburg performance was very poor this season |

Didn't watch the match so can't judge whether Liverpool played badly judging from the score I don't think Liverpool played badly but yes quite disappointed to see the results of this match but hopefully it won't affect their next appearance in the League or in the Champions League because those two tournaments should be Liverpool's focus at this time
You can check match statistics in livescore from my observation Manchester City far dominated the match Manchester City 18 shots and Liverpool 7 shoots so Manchester City deserved to win even though it almost ended in a draw Watching the highlight of this match i think in the term of the opportunities to scoring goals obviously Manchester City was very dominate and it proven from their statistics was more better than Liverpool and i noticed De Bruyne was performing well in this match because he is the creator of goals for Manchester City and 2 assists from him makes Haaland and Ake can bringing Manchester City to won the match and after this result Manchester City was qualified to quarterfinal but unfortunately for Liverpool as defending champion of this competition their journey have to stopped |

Some people believe 2023 could be Chris Smalling last season with AS Roma this because contract negotiation between him and Roma still deadlock because Smalling demand high salary on his new contract but Roma management has refuse it and if until end of this season Roma still cannot extended Smalling contract then probably he will left next summer with free transfer status and reported Juventus and Inter Milan will joining the race to gets his signs if he decide to find new clubs this because they feel Smalling was performing well with Roma and with gets him it can be strengthen their defensive lines

Looking at Everton playing against the wolves, I have a bad feeling that Everton might lose against wolves. The Wolves were defeated by Arsenal in their last game before the world cup, so I have a feeling that they won't want to lose another game. Given that Everton has a 2.34 odd and the wolves have a 3.30, and the Wolves are tough when it comes to playing against anyone, and that west ham is an additional bonus for arsenal to use to count for extra points, with arsenal giving about 6 odd.
Compared to recent performance from both of teams i think Everton has slightly better than Wolves but indeed don't mean Everton will easily beat Wolves and why the bookie provide lower odds for Everton than Wolves it because from total 3 wins which Everton got this season two of them is from home matches so this might be considering Everton slightly the favourite in this match than Wolves but to pick who will be the winner of this match is quite risky because possibly the match will ended with draw and i personally will avoid this match because for me the result will be unpredictable but my predictions is this match will ended with draw or might be other option such as both teams to scores |

Bayern already linked with several players like the goal keeper from croatia livakovic, goal keeper of argentina E.Martinez and bayern already rumoured to bring back alexander nubel from monaco. It seems like that bayern seeing injury that happened with neuer as the serious thing that needs to be solved as soon as possible. Bayern may get the new goal keeper in january. Im sure that if the main option must be to bring the alexander nubel back to bayern and second option was buying the new keeper that is having a good performance now.
the best possibility I believe is to buy the Argentine goalkeeper who is performing very well, Emiliano Martinez. although the option to repatriate Nubel also has a big possibility. but I think more about Munich will be strengthened by a new goalkeeper in the winter transfer market. if Munich doesn't get Martinez, the option to send Nubel back will be exercised. it all depends on the negotiations that will take place. 30-year-old Emiliano Martinez will make Bayern Munich even stronger. Emiliano Martinez is very experienced. And he can perform well without faltering under a lot of pressure. I would say one of the biggest reasons why Argentina became world champions was the amazing performance of Emiliano Martinez. He has performed well in every match. But will Aston Villa agree to leave Emiliano Martinez at this moment? Aston Villa may be persuaded to sell him if Bayern Munich offers a higher price. Emiliano Martinez has long duration contract with Aston Villa so he will be at this team for at least until 2027 so if Bayern want to gets him i think they should be release his clause of contract and reported he has 25 millions euro into his contract and possibly this price will be higher considering he was performing well on world cup and indeed he might be will suitable as Manuel Neuer replacement but i don't think Bayern will spend a lot of money to the player with 30 years old so i personally considers this will never happend moreover Bayern had limited budget to buy goalkeeper so if they feel Emiliano Martinez overprice Bayern might be will looking for another players |

Roma actually have some good players in their hands. Especially after their latest transfers the team are stronger in especially the attacking line of the team. However the general quality might still not be enough for winning the Serie A championship. They are trailing behind some big teams in the league in terms of the quality. But on one hand, we can say that the quality is not always enough for winning championships in any league. It is the truth that more qualified teams win championships more often.
However we still sometimes see that one of the remaining teams has a great season thanks to a strong bond between the players and a solid team spirit. Who knows maybe it will be Roma's turn next after Napoli win this season. But to do so, I think Roma need to change their game plan first. Mourinho is still going on with old things which isn't changing anything for Roma now.
Roma transfer behaviour proven they don't have much money to gets good quality players last summer but Mourinho was clever that he can gets Dybala or Nemanja Matic with free status so this is good movement from Roma and indeed the current squad for Roma is decent to joining for race title but before this season begin Mourinho personally don't have any particular target for this team and why he said that probably Mourinho know Roma is very hard to compete with Milan, Napoli or Juventus for the trophy so that's why Mourinho said too he will attempts bringing Roma to gets the winning results for each weeks but he don't want to think about Serie A title However Roma current position is not quite bad even they have good chances to improved their position more than last season and finish at top 4 and for european competition too Mourinho can bringing Roma qualified to play off matches and i am optimistic Roma can gets better achievement under Mourinho |

After long break trough FIFA World Cup 2022, Manchester United returning back to top performance after winning 2-0 from Burnley at EFL Cup, this winning automatically make Manchester United to round quarter final. I am little excited what Manchester United starting eleven in this match because Casemiro settle in defender position with Victor Lindelöf, seems first time with Manchester United saw Casemiro become defender after Varane and Lisandro Martinez not return back form their national team.
Winning from Burnley become capital for Manchester United against Nottingham Forest at Primer League in this weekend, actually they will get back their defender Lisandro Martinez and Varane.
Ten Hag experiment was successfully yesterday that played Casemiro as centre defender he can playing well on that position and this is new position from him since joining to Manchester United and with this result Manchester United qualified to quarterfinal however this result is good to boosted their confidence and Rashford said all of players are in the good shape to faced upcoming match and next match this weekend against Nottingham Forest should be utilized to gets 3 points especially playing at Old Trafford they have to win the match but Nottingham Forest in the positive condition after only get once lose from 5 matches so Manchester United should be careful for these records |

The La Liga trophy will also not be so easy for Barcelona to chase as long as the consistency is still unstable and there is also another very clear obstacle, namely Real Madrid, which this season still looks consistent and is not far behind from Barcelona.
we can still look the surprise when Barcelona when won the classical competition. We know it's hard to defeat or hold the 1st position if in other side has another club that is very excited to beat them. but if they are able to this time, I believe they will continue it in the next session and more, because Barcelona still wants Xavi to continue Pep's scheme which can make Barcelona be great again in La Liga and Europa. Next 31 Dec Barcelona vs Espanyol will be the game of these two teams. It is really difficult to understand which of the two teams will win. We have seen in some games very weak teams lose to strong teams. We have seen Barcelona and Espanyol two teams. In the last 5 matches, Barcelona has won 4 matches and lost 1 match. Espanyol has won 2 matches and lost 2 matches. I would call this easy match for Barcelona this because they were too strong from Espanyol even from 8 recent matches Espanyol cannot able to win from Barcelona and this season too Espanyol still struggle to avoid relegation zone so this match will belongs to Barcelona especially this is home matches for them and Barcelona was very strong at their ground and i think Barcelona schedules is not too tight at least until end of January and so far only Atletico Madrid is strong opponent for them besides that Barcelona only faced mediocre teams so they have to utilized those matches to earn more points |

Before the Premier League starts tonight we can watch the Carabao Cup match where Manchester United vs Burnley we can see Man United's game again without Ronaldo now there is a possibility that Rashford will be starting IX.
Tomorrow's match Manchester City vs Liverpool will be more exciting as usual, I know of all the main players will not be played as a whole but this match will certainly be more interesting than usual.
Burnley is tough opponent for Manchester United because they are the leader of championship division and for squad composition Manchester United still cannot played Varane and Martinez but some of players such as Maguire or Eriksen confirmed in the good shape so lets see whether Manchester United can win from Burnley or not Besides that the match between Manchester City vs Liverpool always be interesting to watched this because their rivalry for race title on previous season and on other competitions Liverpool actually had good records from Manchester City but Carabao Cup is not too important for both of teams considering Manchester City and Liverpool has more focus for other competitions such as premier league or champion league |

PSG are preparing to extend Messi's contract. Especially after his World Cup performance it must have made a big impact on their decision. Messi was already playing great for PSG as well of course. But winning the World Cup will surely increase his motivation level for the rest of the season. They need Messi to fight more seriously for the Champions League title.
Messi has always been leaving the door open for Barcelona though. But as there isn't any official offer made by them, there is no reason for Messi to reject or stall PSG. He would play for PSG at least for one more season and after that maybe he might prefer to leave.
It would be nice if Messi was willing to return to Barcelona, but of course if he is not willing to sign a contract extension with PSG. I think Messi will make a decision about his future after the season ends, so I don't think he will immediately accept the contract extension offer immediately. Barcelona respect to Messi more than the players themselves, he is a club legend and I think he deserves to retire there. However, if PSG via the president succeeds in persuading Messi to extend the contract, then Barcelona will not be able to bring in this mega star the next season. No doubt, Messi will be glad to return to Barca. If anyone will talk about the clubs behind Messi's success I think Barca will be on the top list. But right now, I think one shouldn't speak about Messi returning to Barca without reflecting on the reason Messi left Barca. FC Barcelona decided to let go of the supper star not just because his contract expired but because they were not financially capable of offering him a new contract because then their dept rate was very high. Whenever Barca resolves their financial problem, I think Messi will return. For now PSG will attempts to extended his contract and reported Messi are willing to negotiate with PSG representatives in the near future so if Messi agree probably he will be at PSG until 2024 and Messi linked to Barcelona currently only fans speculations because after win world cup trophy with Argentina the fans feels this winter is the right time to bringing Messi back to Barcelona but i don't think this will be realized considering he has bad relationship with Barcelona president Joan Laporta because if i am not mistaken Laporta is one of factor why Messi left Barcelona with free transfer and besides that Barcelona already move on without Messi and if Messi return i don't think it will good for team conditions |

Looking at the table, it is possible for Manchester City to finish the season to complete at the first place but they have to make sure that Arsenal losses to some guys at least 2 matches and make sure that City win most of their match
Manchester City just waits for Arsenal to slip or lost in the next match, then they will be able to 1st position again, but I think it's not easy like what they did in the 2021 session ago because Arsenal this time is look complete and Solid for each line. We know, there is Haaland who can make many goals in the premier league, but Pep's target is look different this time, seem like he focusing on the Champions League only after Haaland come to Manchester to end the curse. But it looks like waiting for Arsenal to lose won't happen in the first few games when the season restarts. because Arsenal will have a big chance to win the game later in week 17. because the opponent is West Ham who is not very good this season. even West Ham has lost 9 times out of a total of 15 matches. so Arsenal could have returned to add full points. and what Manchester city can do is try not to lose their match against Leeds either because if they lose it will widen the point gap with Arsenal. West Ham defense actually not so poor but seems they have a problem with their forward lines and 12 goals from 14 matches proven West Ham is the team with lack of productive and statistics showed from 5 recent meetings Arsenal has unbeatable records from West Ham so this might be easy match for Arsenal especially West Ham this season had poor performance although they were playing well at european competitions but seems West Ham failed to managed their performance in premier league and probably Arsenal will playing without Gabriel Jesus who got injured but it won't have any problem for them considering Arsenal have several players who can scoring goals with very well so 3 points probably will almost certain belongs to them |

Next schedule match for matchday 16- AC Ajaccio vs Angers
- Troyes vs Nantes
- Auxerre vs Monaco
- Clermont Foot vs Lille
- Brest vs Lyon
- Paris Saint-Germain vs Strasbourg
- Lorient vs Montpellier
- Reims vs Rennes
- Marseille vs Toulouse
- Nice vs Lens
Which one matches in your waiting list for watching next week? I sure PSG will not in the full team have potential with Mbappe and Lionel Messi are absent. I'm looking forward to the match between Auxerre vs Monaco, we know Auxerre is already in the relegation zone at the moment and the opponent is Monaco who are trying to break into 4th place if they manage to win this match, but it seems that the match will be a little difficult for Monaco because they have to play at home opponent. Even so, Auxerre must be able to get 3 points so that they can avoid the relegation zone, so this match is one of the decisive steps for the two teams to lift their position in the standings, I have no more expectations, but it seems that Monaco will narrowly win this match. Monaco away matches actually is not so poor even they can able to gets 3 points from away matches before and Monaco indeed cannot managed their consistency this season because sometimes they playing well and won but often too they playing poor and lose so actually hard to predict the match result from Monaco but considering their opponent Auxerre not in the good shape probably they have good opportunities to win the match and to finish at 4th place they have to improved their performance because some teams such as Marseille, Rennes and Lorient also could be strong opponents for Monaco so it's not easy to compete with those teams because they also possibly can able to bounce back after international break |

The rumours was appears regarding Angel Di Maria future in Juventus that he said this could be last season for Di Maria to playing in Juventus and probably he will refuse extended contract which offered by Juventus and before ended his career Di Maria want to play at his childhood club at Argentina so that's why he was decide to leave Italy this summer and i wish this is not final decision from him because with Juventus he was performing well that's why Juventus offering 1 year contract extention for him and he should be playing for this team a bit longer

The last thing you want is to get your good players injured in a friendly match. Roma and Mourinho are unlucky in this regard. Lorenzo Pellegrini is an important name. It has a structure that directs offensive organizations. For Roma, the injury is a significant loss. I hope he gets better soon and takes his place in the team. In Serie A, while there is already an important race for the top positions, it is a nightmare for the teams to get injured. I don't know how bad the injury is, but I might miss the next few games. Lorenzo Pellegrini picked up an ankle injury in a friendly and will be assessed tomorrow morning according to the source. Lorenzo Pellegrini suffers ankle injury in Casa Pia friendlyI think Mourinho will be worried about this injury, but let's hope it's not too bad. Roma will face Bologna in early January, so there is still time for his recovery. This is not new for Lorenzo Pellegrini because during playing for Roma he has injured history several times even Pellegrini never playing for whole matches in a season because for each years Pellegrini always be got injured but indeed mostly it was not bad injured because usually he can recover for 1 month or less and i think Mourinho shouldn't too worried about his condition if Pellegrini cannot be played because Mourinho have a player who very suitable to replace his position Dybala and after bringing Argentina to get world cup trophy Dybala will return to Roma in the good shape so this is good because he can help Roma to performing well even i have to say if Dybala played he can able to performing better compared to Pellegrini |

According to the news of the Spanish newspaper Sport, Barcelona is pushing all possibilities to add N'Golo Kante, whose contract with Chelsea will expire at the end of the season. If this transfer takes place, Barcelona will strengthen its power. If Barcelona wants to buy this player, they definitely will. Because a football player like Kante wants to play in a team like Barcelona.
Barcelona bringing N'Golo Kante to the team is going to be a good deal since Chelsea is not willing to offer him a new contract when his contract expires with them and I think Kante will likely accept the offer because currently, he has been unavailable in the pitch for a long time due to injuries so Barcelona bringing him in the team at his age will be a dream come true for him and FC Barcelona will also have an edge against their opponents because Kante is a strong player that can help to strengthen and solidify the Xavi's formation. In addition, Kante is yet to make his intention known so the news will count as a rumor for now until the deal is done but Barcelona will have no issues in bringing the French man to the team because right now Barcelona in doing well in the Spanish Laliga and as a player like Kante who's effort has helped the blues in so many ways expanding his experience with the Spanish gaint will be his greatest desire. I don't think Kante is old enough. Barcelona, who can transfer Lewandowski at this age, can also transfer Kante. Also, Kante is 3 years younger than Lewandowski. Brings dynamism to the Midfield. An incredible player. He'll just have to get over the injuries. If he suffers another long-term injury, it could negatively affect his career. In my opinion, if the rumors are true, Kante would be a good transfer for Barcelona. Kante was often to gets injured even most likely he gets long duration injured so it will have any effect for his performance because usually the players who often to gets long durations injured will hard to find their top performance again so gets Kante is quite risky for Barcelona because not impossible for Kante he will spend his time to recover his conditions than playing regularly for each weeks but Kante will have free agent status this summer so Barcelona not necessary to pay transfer fee to get his signs and indeed this is good moves considering Kante is midfielder player with complete skill but in Barcelona there are some of players in his positions so if Kante really went to Barcelona he have to do more efforts to gets one place on midfield position |

Early this week the Premier League will resume. I'm interested in the Brentford vs Tottenham match which was the first game since the Premier League was stopped because of the World Cup. At the moment Tottenham is only 1 point away from Newcastle who are in 3rd place, so surely Tottenham will really fight to win this match without mistakes.
Brentford is giant killer so far they had successfully beat the duo of Manchester and besides that Chelsea even cannot able to wins from them so this proven Brentford had more motivation to wins if against strong teams and because this is home match for Brentford i think Tottenham should be careful for them because if i am not mistaken Brentford was unbeatable during playing for home matches for this season so Tottenham will faced hard match i think and they have to hard struggle to earn points from this match and regarding the match result in my opinion there are possibilities will ended with draw results |

 Image Source: Google The World Cup is over, and in about 1 month we'll see more matches in Europe's top leagues, one of which is the Bundesliga. Based on the picture above, we can see that currently the Bundesliga table is led by Bayern Munich with 34 points, followed by SC Freiburg with 30 points, and then in third place we also have RB Leipzig with 28 points at their disposal at the moment. How do you think the Bundesliga will go in the next half of the season? Will the dominance of Bayern Munich continue? or will RB Leipzig or SC Freiburg be able to seize dominance this season? Give me your feedback. Bayern Munich actually had 4 difference points from second position and for race title Bayern position still possible to overtaked by other teams such as Freiburg but this became so hard because Bayern was too dominant for each matches so when Bundesliga starting again i think the position will not so different and on next month maybe we will see big match between Bayern Munich vs Leipzig but this could be one side match considering Bayern is too strong for Leipzig although Leipzig has performing well lately but it wouldn't be enough for them to beat Bayern but the latest news said Bayern has losing some of their important players so lets see whether Leipzig can makes Bayern to slipped or not |

60% of impulses created in the knock out phase of the just-concluded FIFA world cup were pulled by Paris saint German attackers #Neyma #messi and mbappe.. With this, I think we should be expecting something bigger from them at their club level. This has given me the fear that PSG may likely conquer Bayern Munich in the upcoming round of 16, especially in the absence of sadio mane, Manuel Neuer, Lucas Hernandez, and Sarr...it will be dangerous to play PSG in the round of 16 without them. I pray they recover before then.
I think even prior to the WC we all knew that PSG have the stars to beat just about any team, and that is including Bayern Munich. Even when they were eliminated by Real Madrid at this very stage last season it was just by a hairs breadth as PSG were very close to eliminating the European champions, but it was more like it had already been written in the skies for Madrid because they rode their luck from then on till the final, and won it. Having said that, Bayern Munich have quite a lot of injury worries, some of them are certain to miss this crunch encounter, whilst we wait on the others to know if they will be fit, i think PSG are stronger than Bayern at this very time, and except a miracle should happen, i expect the Paris club to progress to the QF. I think this Bayern Munich versus PSG match is going to be a thrilling one as both teams are really strong in their own aspects. But I have to say that Bayern Munich might have a huge disadvantage because of their injuries. I can see a lot of their first-team players are injured like Ismaïla Sarr, Lucas Hernandez, and mainly Sadio Mané. You know, Sadio Mané came as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski and was doing quite well I have to say. But his absence might be a big problem for Bayern Munich as PSG players seem to be on top of their form, especially Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe. It seems that PSG is stronger this season when compared to last season, PSG has Neymar, Mbappe and Messi on the front lines who are able to give big trouble to their opponents. Moreover, Messi and Mbappe in the Qatar World Cup were able to show their neat performance, so the percentage of their performance can be said to be able to make PSG stronger in the Champions League. facing bayern munich i think psg will have a pretty good chance to show their quality in the champions league. because if PSG manages to win this match then I think PSG will be the leading team to win the Champions League trophy this season. In my opinion the composition of squad for PSG actually is not so different such as previous season but the current difference is their forward trio has performing well this season and i don't know why because seems after Gatlier came to PSG this team has changed a lot even from the collaborative sides the current PSG is more better than Mauricio Pochettino era so for champion league i think they can step far than the previous season and for round of 16 obviously PSG has slightly favourite than Bayern especially currently Bayern has faced injured issue which makes their strength was decreased and this is first test for PSG and if they can able to beat Bayern i think their chances to gets the trophy will be increased |

The first match in Serie A in January will bring AC Milan and Salernitana together. Broadly speaking, this will be an easy match for AC Milan because their opponent is a relatively weak team. The opportunity is now wide open for AC Milan to reduce their distance to Napoli because Napoli will play a tougher match against Inter Milan at the San Siro.
This should be a good opportunity for AC Milan when they meet opponents who are not too strong. They can get additional points by winning from that match. Even though the points obtained are still not enough to catch Napoli, at least AC Milan must always get a win in every match to take Napoli position. On the paper this indeed should be good a chance for AC Milan to collect 3 points from Salernitana considering this team not in the good shape because Salernitana has failed to wins 3 times streak and several times lose with big scores against big teams but i don't think it will be easy to gets 3 points from Salernitana because apparently Milan seems hard to win from away matches and it proven from their recent away matches that AC Milan has failed to wins 2 times streak and all of it comes from mediocre teams even the latest is they lose from Torino several months ago so i will considers this is hard match for Milan |
