Finally, Ramos became a solid wall for Real Madrid players. Ramos is doing very well, and actually maybe he still deserves to play for Madrid. In addition, Anceloti seems to be a little regretful about letting Ramos go. There were not many Madrid chances, they were not able to control the game well. Even Sevilla was able to make Madrid difficult, Bellingham was not able to perform optimally. Luckily they were able to make one goal so as to avoid defeat. Losing 2 points is enough to make it difficult for them to keep their distance from the 2nd and 3rd ranks.
I don't know what to call yesterday's match against Sevilla but it is closed to a disappointment from Real Madrid to have draw in that match. I was really expecting a win. Bellingham was not lucky yesterday neither was Vinicius and Rodrigo. I was expecting a goal from each of these players aforementioned but none could deliver until when Carvajal scored for Real Madrid. I feel like the team could have performed better than they did because they were in a full squad yesterday but that's the game of football, most times it works like gambling. Apart from Sevilla's strong defense, Real Madrid's front is also in the spotlight in this match because they didn't play optimally, this result is very disappointing even though the Real Madrid team is in its best performance and Sevilla with all its problems and even the Sevilla team with its new coach, of course This result is not a satisfactory result for Real Madrid. However, this match was quite fierce, with high tension, there were even several incidents involving Sergio Ramos and his former colleagues at Real Madrid, this was quite exciting in my opinion and Ramos was really still the same as before. |

Napoli managed to get 3 points over Verona in today's match and it is a very good thing for them considering their performance is now being highlighted especially the absence of Osimhen in the squad makes them more ogled but fortunately they can bring 3 points in this match.
Their opponents were fairly easy but to be honest, I was a little skeptical at first with Napoli's performance still erratic and losing Osimhen in the squad for the next few weeks is honestly worrying but they proved that they can win.
But indeed this still cannot be used as praise because they still have a lot of work to do. Raspadori and Giovani still can't replace Osimhen's role until now.
Actually, I'm just as skeptical as you. Because Napoli's inconsistency this season should make us all more alert in predicting their performance. I didn't even dare to bet on last night's match. But it turns out I was wrong. Because Napoli without Osimhen isn't too bad either. I think winning with a score of 1-3 is quite good. But you are right that we still cannot consider a victory in this match as a big progress for Napoli. Because after all, Verona is quite an easy opponent. It's just that I hope Napoli can still win the next matches they will face. This is very natural because Napoli's inconsistent performance, especially playing without their mainstay player Osimhen, of course many people doubted that Napoli could win the match, but the Napoli team managed to ward off many people's doubts by winning this match with a fairly convincing score. However, in my opinion, this victory cannot be separated from the weakness of the Verona team so that the game was completely controlled by the Napoli team. And it is true that this victory cannot be said to be a revival for the Napoli team. In my opinion, a team that is worthy of being taken into account is a team that has been proven to play consistently with its performance. |

Regardless of Sevilla's current form in both the league and in the UEFA Champions League, playing against them in an European game at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium is one of the scariest matches for any European club because Sevilla are always playing at their best whenever they're playing an European game in front of their home fans.
Arsenal I think knows truly well of the kind of task they're trying to execute and I think Mikel Arteta's men are ready for the encounter. On papers, Arsenal are the favourites to win that game but they must be at their best to take all three points from that game
So basically it is quite difficult for Arsenal to get the full three points against Sevilla. I'm pretty sure that this match has a tense intensity. Sevilla can overwhelm Arsenal even with ideal players. Personally, I would not underestimate Sevilla if they were playing at home. This is a tough task for Arteta and his troops to better control their emotions and be calm. As usual, the mentality of Arsenal players will always be tested and in the Champions League competition it will not be the same as what they experienced in the Premier League. When it comes to the europa league I'm very sure of Sevilla because their performance in the europa league used to be extraordinary, they put their best performance in every game they play no matter the team, but as for champions league I'm not too sure about Sevilla if they can succeed to defeat arsenal. Arsenal are doing well this season, and I don't think the champions league is a game that they will take for granted, looking at the players arsenal have compare to that to Sevilla it very possible for arsenal to defeat Sevilla. Let's look realistically at the performance of these two teams since the start of the season, it is clear that there is a significant difference in fact, Sevilla has never found its best performance and Arsenal is very on fire now so I think if there are no surprises that happen then it is very possible for Arsenal to beat Seville easily. Regardless of the team's performance in the domestic league or UCL, I think the team's performance in its last few matches is clear and we can look at this to predict it. |

Liverpool only leading one point from 20 total shots, it's not good to be honest because they're seems really want to score a goal as fast as possible. Everton could give a surprise for score a goal in the last minute and then the match end in draw.
With the current Liverpool's performance, I doubt they can become a champion because they can't completely beat a club which play with 10 players.
This cannot be a benchmark, Everton is not an easy opponent for Liverpool to face because there is high tension every match between these two teams because this is a Derby match which is full of prestige. It was indeed difficult for Liverpool's front players to score goals in this match, but apart from that, at the end of the match Liverpool managed to win with a score of 2-0, this was enough to get an additional 3 points this week. I don't think it's appropriate for us to say that Liverpool doesn't deserve to be champion because in terms of performance the Liverpool team has improved a lot this season. |

Real Madrid and Sevilla will have different ambitions in their next meeting, even though on paper Madrid is very superior in this match. This match will make two impressions on the Sevilla camp, Diego Alonso and Ramos will face Madrid for the first time. However, I still believe that Los Blancos will be able to easily secure the three points even if they play away from home. On the other hand, Sevilla is still having difficulty getting up to create a positive trend, so far they have to be willing to sit in 14th position in the La Liga points table.
Looking at the preparations of both teams after the international break, Ancelotti now has an almost complete squad (Courtois & Militao) who still have long injuries, likewise in the Sevilla camp they have a complete squad. I think the match will be very exciting and very emotional, I'm waiting to see how Ramos will perform when he reunion.
Many football fans around the world are waiting for Sergio Ramos' performance, whether he will play as hard as usual against Real Madrid's strikers or lower his tension a little, I'm very curious about that. However, overall, even though there is currently quite a big difference between Real Madrid and Sevilla in terms of quality, this is a match between two top La Liga teams which will definitely be very fierce and interesting. It cannot be denied that Real Madrid is very much the favorite because of Sevilla. Until now, we haven't found the best performance yet. |

Dortmund were just really bad when it comes to finding the target. Only 20% of their shots were on target and they were barely able to win by 1-0. Maybe Werder Bremen couldn't play comfortably in Signal Iduna Park but they resisted really strongly against Dortmund here. It took Dortmund 67 minutes to score the winner.  But of course Dortmund got what they wanted from this game which was three points. They sometimes have difficulties in scoring more than one goal in a game so hopefully this wouldn't be seen often for them. For now they still have an average of 2 goals a game. Despite Dortmund's performance not being optimal, this 1 goal win was enough for them to get 3 points and become the temporary leaders of the Bundesliga standings because several other teams have not played matches this week. The Dortmund team's problems are always different in every match, sometimes their back line plays badly and sometimes their front line has difficulty scoring goals, but I think that is a normal thing in the Dortmund team and there is no need for changes because they are still like that. |

Fiorentina have been one of the team on the rise as you know. Their next game is going to be against Empoli home. I already see a win there for Fiorentina honestly. Empoli changed their manager a short time ago but I don't expect this to make them resist Fiorentina strongly here. They would need some time to recover.
Fiorentina beat even Napoli away recently and they are in great shape now. They can even be in the race for top 4 this season if they keep this form during the first half of the season.
I was pleasantly surprised by Fiorentina, this team is playing really well. Prandelli had also said not to underestimate the Fiorentina, that the team was growing significantly and was experimenting with new tactical forms and strategies. You can see, I would like to say, they beat Napoli. Playing at home against Empoli, who are currently in the relegation zone, is certainly a very good moment for Fiorentina to get three points again. After all, basically I also never underestimate Fiorentina because yes, I still remember very well when in the past Fiorentina had a very good form too when there was still Batistuta. So yes, because I am aware of history, I never underestimated Fiorentina until now. Until finally, this season Fiorentina managed to regain their best form and currently Fiorentina can also compete in the top four and of course that is a great development that Fiorentina has managed to have this season. I definitely believe they should have no problems to be able to beat Empoli. Because Empoli has only been able to score one goal so far in this season. And they do not seem to be improving any time soon. They should be able to keep a clean sheet and win this match. But remember, Empoli was able to win the only match in which they were able to score. So be careful if they score first though. But even then I think it is going to be a win for Fiorentina. It will be a big surprise if Fiorentina lose this match. I think it's almost impossible because Fiorentina is currently in their best form especially since this match will be played at their own home, with full support from the crowd I think it's quite possible for Fiorentina to win with a convincing score. While Empoli is a team that was quite down at the start of this season, there is quite a significant difference in quality between Fiorentina and Empoli so in my opinion it is very unlikely that there will be any surprises in this match. |

This is football, the impossible likely happen, ofcourse I've seen surprising results over time and Chelsea versus Arsenal match, I strongly believe the Blues will have their way against Gunners. Remember Chelsea shared points with Liverpool in the first opening EPL game this season, my big question is directed to you, don't underestimate the Blues simply because we made few decline in previous games and dropped points against average teams. The fact is out, Chelsea is competitive this season, perhaps it's not easy for the a new coach, Mauricio Pochettino to meet the high demands of the blues but he will try his best to fit in.
I hope so. And why he's at it, I'd advise he strengthen his midfield because that could be a point the Gunners can take advantage of. You will agree with me that Moises Caicedo is still adapting to the club and hasn't gained that confidence he used to have at Brighton. Do you think that the Chelsea midfield can stand Arsenal in the midfield department.. Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard and Thomas Partey(if he'd start) have proven to be very formidable trio and if you have watched they know how to break into any opposing teams and do you think the Blues can steal three points? Remember that the only big team they're defeated is Brighton meanwhile Arsenal have got the two Manchester sides in their bag. Even though the two are arch rivals, Arsenal have not lost since the season began and would be looking to add to their tally. I think Chelsea will have some problems trying to score in this match against Arsenal. I see some problems with Chelsea not being able to understand what they are going to do when they are in the half of the field. Sometimes the players actually look to be clueless about what to do. They look up for auctions and do not see any good position to pass the ball. And I will say that the midfield needs to get stronger. Because that only translates to the attacking lineup not having a good supply. Anyway, I don't think they are going to win this match against Arsenal, doesn't matter how much they try. Maybe that's the case, but don't underestimate Chelsea either because they play at home and sometimes playing against big Premier League teams like Arsenal will motivate Chelsea players, currently the Chelsea team is a different team and is looking for its best performance, even in matches. This week against Arsenal they are not really favorites but I think this match will still be interesting and it is very likely that Chelsea will put up tough resistance in the match and it is not impossible that they will make a surprise. |

Neymar is a player who joined Al Hilal for a huge amount of money and even Al Hilal could understand this palyer could get injured and lose while the reason but still Al Hilal bought this player, I think Al Hilal will not send this huge amount of money for marketing purpose and they could hire many other players instead of him, let's just accept Al Hilal made a huge mistake.  This is a risk that the Al Hilal team must bear because Neymar has been prone to injury for a long time and Al Hilal continues to recruit him at a very high price. Regardless of Al Hilal's aim of recruiting Neymar for marketing purposes alone or accompanied by a contribution to the team, what is clear at this time is that what has happened to Neymar is a big loss for the Al Hilal team, because he has just joined the team and there has been no major contribution made by him. Neymar for Al Hilal but he now has a serious injury, it's a big loss. |

Aston Villa - West Ham game also seems quite interesting to me. It is a game between two close teams in the standings now. However this didn't direct bookmakers to give close odds for the win for these teams. Aston Villa are quite the favourite team to win here. I will give them that as well because we have a fresh example of a similar game recently.
Aston Villa crushed Brighton by 6-1 a short time ago. The odds were even much closer than this back then as well. I wouldn't be shocked if Aston Villa do a similar work against West Ham either. But there is an interesting statistics about them against West Ham so far. They couldn't beat West Ham in the PL since 2015. I really am curious about whether this series will come to an end.
This is a match between two teams who have almost the same quality, but Aston Villa is clearly the favorite in this match because they will be playing at home and also in the last few matches they have been unbeaten. It's very possible but I don't think it will be as easy for them as they beat Brighton. Currently Aston Villa are in their best form and they have high enough confidence to beat West Ham in front of their own supporters this weekend. |

PSG are going to play a home game against Strasbourg tomorrow. There are many players absent at PSG before this game. Asensio, Dembele, Hakimi, Kolo Muani are all absent for example. This means a big weakening in the attacking line before the Strasbourg game. Mbappe will have a bigger responsibility on his shoulders seemingly.
Goncalo Ramos has been quite inconsistent since he joined the team. He still doesn't seem to have adapted to the environment. I hope we can see some good performance from him in this one as well. Strasbourg can't score many goals even though the gap with PSG is only 5 points. I don't think they can resist PSG in this game.
After the international break, there will definitely be differences in a team and with so many of PSG's main players being absent, it is possible that their performance will decline, but in my opinion this is not always the case because so far PSG's main players have not always been in good performance, in fact sometimes if opportunities are given to substitute players they will prove it by making a much better performance. This is a very difficult season for Luis Enrique because since his arrival the PSG team's performance has actually decreased and the PSG squad also continues to lose its main players. To be honest, I wouldn't expect much from Mbappe because so far Mbappe doesn't seem to be playing wholeheartedly for PSG anymore, it's clear from his increasingly minimal contribution. So the match against Strasbourg this weekend is likely to be fierce in my opinion. |

Arsenal's performance against Lens was not bad. There was some strategic mistake so they lost. Arsenal's overall performance in this match was very good. I don't think Arsenal will make the same mistake again. Arsenal team is strong enough. Sevilla's performance, on the other hand, has been weak and erratic. I don't think Arsenal will make any mistakes against this team. If Arsenal's defense can perform a bit better in this match, I think they can beat Sevilla. Sevilla team can be considered as the weakest team in Group B.
Sevilla's performance is indeed erratic but that doesn't mean they are the weakest team in group B, I think Arsenal still have to be wary of the Sevilla team even though overall if we look at the strength of the two teams then Arsenal is much better than the Sevilla team. The defeat against Lens will certainly be a lesson for the Arsenal team and they cannot repeat the same mistakes if they still want their chances of qualifying from group B to be wide open from what happened and the big motivation is definitely from Arsenal. I am also very sure they will be able to win over Sevilla but that doesn't mean it will be easy for Arsenal. |

There is possible chance for Bremen to score goal but winning the match seems impossible in fact the chance is almost non-existent.
I sure anyone here will definitely prefer Dortmund as their favorite seed but it seems like the Odds that can be obtained will tend to be very low because this is an easy match for them.
It just that Dortmund is also in condition where as we know there is decline in the composition of players they have for this season and perhaps they will also be the Bundesliga team that does not get UCL tickets for next season.
Leverkusen, Stuttgart and Bayern Munich will always hinder Dortmund development from rising to the top.
Dortmund is an inconsistent team so I think anything is still possible in this match, but because this match is played at Dortmund's home ground and Bremen's poor performance this season makes Dortmund very much the favorite to win the match. And fighting for tickets to the UCL next season does look a little difficult because this season there are several Bundesliga teams that have risen to become even better, but in my opinion Dortmund's chances of being able to get tickets to the UCL next season are still very big, it's still early in the season and Consistency is needed until the end of the season to be able to occupy the top position in the final Bundesliga standings and Dortmund is experienced enough for that. |

I don't think Real Madrid will easily give the leadership to Barcelona. Barcelona wants leadership as much as Real Madrid wants it. Considering that Real is slowly starting to recover from their injuries, I think it will be a difficult process for Barcelona. The biggest problem for Real Madrid is the lack of a quality striker. If they complete that, no one can hold them back.
Not only is there a fight to be at the top of the standings but there is also huge prestige, from the previous few matches Real Madrid looked better than Barcelona even though Real Madrid's attackers were very minimal, but Vinicius' recovery from injury answered all doubts and since Vini returned, Real Madrid's performance has been really good. changed for the better. Meanwhile, Barcelona is currently facing a lot of problems, from their inconsistency and also the injury problems that have befallen several of their players. However, what is certain is that the match between these two teams will be quite fierce, despite all the problems that befell both teams, predicting who will win this match is very difficult. |

Actually, I have already stated some of my opinions in other threads, but here perhaps more people will provide opinions to strengthen my beliefs.
I have a little doubt about Napoli who will play against Verona and my doubts always focus on their mainstay player, Victor Osimhen, who currently looks erratic or inconsistent, has had a slight decline in performance and I doubt if Napoli can win this away match even though Verona is considered not very strong but they got home advantage and had the opportunity to use a defensive strategy and end the match in a draw.
I'm worried that a surprise will happen in this match while I also placed a bet on this match.
I also think so and in my opinion it is better to avoid betting on this match, it is very risky to bet on an inconsistent team like Napoli especially since the betting market is very favorable towards them. From what happened in Napoli's last few matches and also Victor Osimhen's inconsistent performance, everything is possible to happen in this weekend's match against Verona, and it is true that Verona's quality is not better than Napoli, but the consistency of a team is very crucial, and I try to avoid betting on this match, I think it's better. |

 Source: https://talksport.com/football/1607101/andrew-robertson-injury-new-fitness-liverpool-everton-premier-league/The international break was another disaster and this time it was the turn of Liverpool's mainstay left back, Andrew Robertson, who had to be sidelined due to a shoulder injury he suffered while playing for Scotland against Spain last week. Reportedly, the shoulder injury was quite serious and he had to be out for up to 10 weeks. This is clearly a loss for Liverpool, especially as his role as a starter can never be replaced. This week there is also a Merseyside derby match against Everton and I think this time Liverpool's defense will be a little loose on the left side of the defense. I hope Kloop can overcome this problem and put the right player in place of Andrew Robertson. This is the reason why some of the manager are not happy for going this international break, it mostly change their plans, before the break kloop expectation that after the break he will is complete players and they will continue from where they stop now that Andrew Robertson is out for 10 weeks this will give him another challenge on who to replace Andrew Robertson, This is something unexpected, no one wants this to happen but there is nothing that can be done either. However, I still believe in the current Liverpool squad because they have a fairly even squad in each line and also Kloop is an experienced coach who should be able to overcome things like this, although it cannot be denied that Andrew Robertson's injury will affect his performance. Liverpool is a little influential but there are several other players who in my opinion can replace him to maintain the stability of Liverpool's performance. |

Lautaro Martínez continue to make goal and goal, is on 10! Like Osimhen of previous year. Osimhen is on 6 goals, in 2nd position.
It seems lik that lautaro will make gap even bigger. I just heard that if osimhen will not be playing for some weeks due to the hamstring injury and this has been confirmed by napoli regarding his injury. There are 4 goals gap between lautaro and martinez. I think that if lautaro can make it at least 10 goals gap to the osimhen which is now placing at the second spot. It's caused by lautaro has several weeks to scores as many goals as possible. Im happy to see osimhen injured and i hope this will last till the end of season. Napoli will not have someone who can play as good as him as a striker. This time for napoli goes down to the earth. The duo milan seem lose one more competitor cuased by its main striker was injured. Napoli has left from the title race at this moment. This club was fucking nothing without osimhen. Im happy with it. Please someone shall tell osimhen to back his comeback at the end of this season. Let intermilan to take the scudetto back this season. Intermilan is ready in competing with ac milan for the title race. It is estimated that Victor Oshimen will not play for a while, namely around 1 month more and Napoli still have to face several matches in the Italian league and champions league in a few weeks without Oshimen. This will make it difficult for Napoli manager Rudi Garcia because Oshimen is a very influential player in Napoli. Without Oshimen, it is possible that Napoli will experience a decline and this will be a big advantage for the Milan duo to be able to win the title this season if they know that Napoli's performance is decreasing, they will at least lose their tough competitor. let's see how far Napoli will go in some matches if there is no Oshimen at the club for a while, whether they are able to stabilize or are increasingly experiencing decline and finding it difficult to face some matches. It is clear that there will be a significant decline in performance if Victor Oshimen is not there. In fact, currently Napoli's performance is very bad, especially without their mainstay player, Victor Oshimen, it will certainly make the situation even worse. In fact, the Napoli team's performance this season has really declined, this is all inseparable from the change of coach in this team and I don't think Napoli can compete fiercely in the race for the Scudetto this season. And don't confuse Lautaro Martínez with Victor Oshimen this season because they play in two teams that have significant differences this season, Martínez who plays with Inter Milan who is in good form at the moment and is also in reverse with Oshimen who is currently in the team Naples is in decline. |

Real Sociedad has more dominating victory their last 5 matches but only won narrowly and it is not impossible that Mallorca will hold Real Sociedad to a draw in this match rather than accept defeat, they will try not to lose points and at least with a draw Mallorca will be satisfied with that result.
Therefore, it is difficult to predict this match even though Real Sociedad's chances are greater than Mallorca's, but it does not rule out the possibility that Mallorca will be able to hold on to a draw.
I think Real Sociedad's chances of winning this match are very big, especially since they are playing at home, and currently Real Sociedad's performance is very good and now Real Sociedad is in 6th place in the La Liga standings. And Mallorca is a team that is clearly below Real Sociedad in terms of quality, so far Mallorca have only been able to win once in the 9 matches they have played. So I have no doubts about Real Sociedad's victory in this match and I even predict that this will be an easy win for Real Sociedad. |

In this match, there is a high chance for both teams to actually get the first win of the season. Lyon has played eight matches and Clermont Foot has played seven matches. Neither of them has been able to win a single match so far. Both of them are at the absolute bottom of the table. So anything can happen in this match. But I am expecting a win for Lyon. They are better than the performance that they have shown so far in this season, of course they are. But having zero wins and five losses definitely does not indicate that they are performing well.
This is a match between two bottom teams at the moment who want to get their first win, Lyon is a bit of a favorite because this match is being played at their home ground and also this is a very good opportunity for Lyon to come back and celebrate their first win this season. Currently only Lyon and Clermont have not won once. This season Lyon performed very badly and it was beyond many people's expectations, and I really hope they can recover from the match and celebrate their first win, because Lyon should not be in the relegation zone. |

@asriloni I’m actually very surprised that Klopp is focusing on winning this competition but I strongly feel that at some stage he’ll stop focusing on the Europa League because he has an excellent chance to win the premier league title. Furthermore if possible I would like to see West Ham vs Liverpool in the finals because West Ham are playing exceptionally well in this competition and can give Liverpool a hard time if they come face to face in this competition.
It's not make sense, there are still 30 weeks in Premier League, even Liverpool is in top 1 position, there's no guarantee they will able to maintain their position until end of the league. Liverpool should focus in Europa League, so they have an opportunity to secure 2 trophies, as long as Sevilla not relegated from Champions League, the possibility to become a champion is still high. Yes is a good oportunitie not only to secure a easy title but also to reach the Champions League in case you are not doing so good in the league. I think this year its not the case because i can see a Liverpool tryin to fight for the Premier League title, but still a nice double chance to reach Champions LEague against weakers teams. Every team definitely has a target to become champions in all the competitions they participate in, the Premier League will certainly be Liverpool's priority but of course they don't want to miss out on the possibility of winning the Europa League because they can still achieve both at the same time, with Liverpool's strength in the season. This is very even, I think they have the possibility to compete fiercely in the race for the Europa League and Premier League titles. Klopp is quite an experienced coach and he learned a lot from failing to win the title last season so they are able to improve this season to be better so I believe they will not miss out on all the titles that are possible for them to achieve, one of which is the Europa League. |
