The opportunity to sits top of the table was missed by Bayern Munich and that's why we're watching them struggling to meet up and make of for their mistakes. Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich are closer than expected, I don't think Thomas Tuchel will easily give up on the Bundesliga title run because he targets to win the title with his Incredible team, the same thing applies to Xabi Alonso. The real fact is, Bayer Leverkusen doesn't seem to appear like team that would easily lose points in matches, there are many more matches to play.
In the standings the two teams are only one point adrift this means that the draw can have an impact on their position well we will wait for which team will fall first and I agree with you Munich will not let this season end easily at least they will give a fierce battle in February. As gamblers we know that we will not bet on 1x2 obviously it's risky. we will pay attention to the total goals and corner kicks. Do you think that one of them will win? if Munich as the host then I confidently say yes Munich win but this time Leverkusen is the host. |

Sevilla have managed to get themselves back on track after elimination from the top tournaments this season. We're open to watch the crucial performances of Sevilla because they have a current tough fight which is to escaped the relegation zone this season. They lost their previous match against Deportivo Alavés and I don't sense any progress in their defeats, it's time for Sevilla to bend down and manage the top matches because they're experienced team build with incredible players, but the question that bother me is, how Sevilla reached this phase which happens to be one of their worst seasons.
Nothing can be expected from Sevilla this season their performance is getting worse with a successive defeat imagine from 20 matches Sevilla only won 3 times that is their worst record, indeed Sevilla still has a chance to get out of degradation but it requires more effort and to start it Sevilla must end this bad result. Unfortunately Sevilla has to fight Girona next week we can guess Sevilla will definitely lose more points because Girona is in the race and doesn't want to lose the opportunity. |

Difficult game but three points is confidently accumulated today, a good way to bounce back to the league. We won today despite throwing vital chances of doubling the goals against Fulham. The game ended 1-0 in favour of Chelsea and I'm just happy that my team is no longer referred to as 10th FC because they have move forward to 8th position on the league table. This should be a good start for the Blues and the coach having good moements at Stamford Bridge, atleast his hope is revived and winning becomes his ultimate targets.
The most important thing is that the confidence of Chelsea players continues to increase so they can go through the next match with full strength, although Chelsea will face difficult opponents next week they must remain confident and targets one point. Besides, Chelsea has a good history when facing a strong team we still remember when Chelsea defeated the strong teams last month and they must be able to repeat it. |

It was too easy for Inter Milan at home against Monza, as it is now quite difficult to beat Inter because they are in great form difficult to beat and only lost once - Inzhagi maintained a good performance with his strategy.
Looks like this season will belong to Inter Milan? Yeah I see the positive vibe this club has, with last season finishing 3rd and runner up in the Champions League this season no doubt, I see one of the trophies coming back.
Martinez is a reliable striker although there are several clubs interested but he has settled comfortably with Inter Milan, now the top scorer and the furthest among the others is difficult to catch.
Yes Inter Milan won easily, Lautaro Martínez managed to add a goal record and leave competitors on the top scorer board. But if you think Inter Milan has secured the title, I don't think yet, because Inter Milan hasn't entered a busy schedule. Juventus must be waiting for this moment because Inter Milan will have difficulty in the schedule and some players may be exhausted and that had an impact on their match in the Italian League, let's wait for how they are through it what is clear is that it will not be easy for Inter Milan. |

Bayern this season looks like they are working really hard to be able to be at the top of the Bundesliga, who would have thought that Leverkusen this season will appear extraordinary and make the competitive atmosphere in the Bundesliga increase rapidly!
when facing Hoffenheim, Bayern succeeded in scoring 3 goals and 2 goals came from Musiala while 1 goal came from Harry Kane. Since Kane first came to Bayern, there have actually been a lot of big hopes on his shoulders, but his team has been able to become a good goal machine, which can compete with Lewandowski in the past.
You are right, Munich really waits for the right moment to shift Leverkusen and only Munich can stop them, the opportunity will come in February when both teams fight each other to fight for the first position, Munich has no choices except to win because it was the last chance of the two teams to fight each other. In the previous match the two teams only drew and in the second match Leverkusen will be in a better position because of the host, that's a real challenge for Munich or they will lose the opportunity to win the trophy. |

Surprisingly, Chelsea remains on track for a winning streak after beating Fulham at Stamford Bridge with a narrow score of 1-0 and perhaps the previous expectations that Fulham would give them trouble have finally been answered. Pochettino will definitely continue to improve his squad to be better and they really need win after win if they want and not be too late from the competition that is in a better position. Even though this victory only came from Cole Palmer's penalty kick, it was still a decent victory for Chelsea.
Many people think that Chelsea are just lucky but the most important thing is 3 points in a row, maybe Chelsea are not in the best performance but at least they have more effort and luck comes through their efforts. Now Chelsea are in the 8th position and it takes 8 more points to compete with Tottenham in the 5th position, we know it's not easy but Chelsea only try to make the same effort in every match and collect points. At least Pochettino can relax with this successive wins the strategy was successful even though it was not optimal. |

I predicted the score 3-0 (and I’m very glad that I guessed right) but in the middle of the second half Hoffenheim had great chances to score a goal. But in the end, Musiala scored the second goal and the game essentially ended. According to statistics, yes, complete dominance of Bayern and most likely even if Kramaric had converted his chance, Bayern would have been able to score more, but in fact this game was not easy for the hosts.
There is no need to be surprised because Bayern Munich is one of the strongest teams in this league and they are still competing with Leverkusen so that Munich will destroy any team that comes, Munich is only one point behind Leverkusen so if they draw or even lose then it will be detrimental to their position. Apart from that, Munich also has Harry Kane who always has the ambition to score goals and get his name on the top scorers board. |

The match between Burnley and Luton is very interesting and if Luton play well the can equalise the match between the match is still in small way to equalise, the first goal scored by Zeki Amdouni is like cleanser they use to revenge of the wining of match between them andTottenham Hotspur because they are not willing to lose two consecutive matches at a time, and the passed match between Burnley and Aston villa they lost the match even the one between them and Liverpool they still lost the match to Liverpool, so that is why they hold it strong to defeat the match, but the thing is I don't know with method of Luton Town kind of football strategy they can at least score one goal to make this match draw
Luton was really lucky to score a goal in the last minute, at least Luton got one point and still have a chance to overcome relegation. Currently Luton is in 17th position with 16 points Everton is Luton's closest competitor with the same points it is still impossible to predict which of them will survive in the Premier League next season and that is one of the reasons Luton is always motivated to get points in every match. |

Basically, no team allows their opponents to easily take home full points in any match. And in terms of the match that Monza will face at home, it will be very tough because Monza will have to face the top of the Serie A standings this season with only their limited abilities. Moreover, currently Inter Milan will not allow any team to win when facing them in any event, especially in the Serie A event this season which is generally being focused better by Inter Milan.
In this situation yes, it is true that no team wants to lose points but at certain moments it can happen. We know that Inter Milan is always the favorite in every match but Monza also has another history when playing at home I mean Monza always puts up a fight no matter who the opponent is. I still remember how Monza almost drew against Juventus and several other big teams and it just ended in a draw, so Inter Milan have to be more careful when they come to play away. |

Juventus this season have not shown any short of performance that will make one doubt their potential of not being able to win the Serie A this season. Inter Milan who are just above them are also not comfortable with the point difference and they’re also very serious with their games not to fall short of any point that will make Juventus have a closer chance to them. The league is still wide open and any of the teams that are currently in the top four positions of the table can still win the league.
We all know that the trophy this season only belongs to Inter Milan and Juventus because only these two teams are the most consistent since the beginning of the season and I don't think other clubs have a chance even AC Milan has come out of the struggle. The fight between the two teams is getting closer in the next 3 weeks we will see who is the most powerful club in the Italian League as well as the club closest to the trophy. I hope Juventus can do something great this season, Juventus have been missing the opportunity to win the title for too long. |

Indeed, if we look at how Man City's performance so far has decreased compared to last season... not without reason, but because the condition of several of their key players were absent for several periods yesterday, some were even injured for months. Luckily, Man City is still in 3rd place in the standing table. So indeed they should still have the opportunity to catch up and take back first position if they can always be optimal and have full points in every match or most of them. Because, their opponent, Liverpool this season is truly impressive, changing from last season.
The transfer of several mainstay players also had an impact on Manchester City's performance for example ̇lkay Gündoğan, previously his contribution for the team was needed but for several reasons Manchester City released this player. As you said injury de Bruyne is also very significant impact In fact, we see Manchester City always having trouble in scoring, fortunately this player has recovered. Now Manchester City needs to play extra to pursue Liverpool and they should not miss every opportunity including in the coming match against Newcastle 3 points are the final target. |

Barcelona Vs Osasuna is an obvious match that we can all see Barcelona advancing to the final of the super cup to play with Real Madrid. We could see another El Classico final which will be lovely to watch. Although, I am not so confident in Barcelona this days but I still feel they can make it to the final of the super cup. If they can improve their performance more before then, we are going to enjoy the final that will be full of intriguing moments. If not so, Real Madrid will easily win the cup.
The first half has ended and Barcelona hasn't scored, Barcelona did control the match but but Osasuna gave fierce resistance and I was worried that something surprising could happen. Based on the Static States Osasuna made 5 shots and 2 on target this means Osasuna always opens opportunities even in pressure. Barcelona might qualify for the final but I doubt it through regular time I mean maybe through extra time 2x15 or even penalties. I saw Robert Lewandowski in the squad this means that Barcelona is really eyeing the final. |

Now we just have to wait for how Liverpool will perform without Salah in their squad because after all, this must be passed but I still feel they will still be quite good in terms of performance, it's just that the problem of scoring goals is a little difficult.
Seeing from Klopp's statement about the current situation for Salah I think he is still quite optimistic about it because indeed some players like Eliot or maybe Gakpo who are converted as right wingers can still be done but on the other hand at this time Klopp needs to emphasize more for Nunez because this is their last hope.
Nunez until now has not shown good signs of scoring goals but this is the only way for them because after all Nunez is the last pedestal for Liverpool at the moment.
Klopp has successfully implemented several strategies to play even without Salah Liverpool's last match was the proof when Liverpool beat Arsenal at home when more people think Arsenal will win but what happens is the opposite so overall playing without Salah is not always worrying. Besides, Salah will not last long with Liverpool it is predicted that he only has a chance for the next 2 seasons so Liverpool must adapt to play without Salah, sSo far from what I see other players have not been able to replace the role of Salah. |

I can confidently say that Girona is increasingly difficult to stop, their ambition for the end of the season is to have prepared everything to match their initial target namely to provide a new atmosphere in La Liga. So it doesn't matter if Girona or Madrid win the trophy later because both of them have the right to fight for the top position according to their current quality. Girona will face Almeria this weekend, coach Michel always tries not to underestimate his opponent. Almeria is not considered a threat but Girona will remain focused on taking advantage of the opportunities that exist. Because Almeria is one of Girona routes to balance Madrid at the top of the standings.
Personally I would like to see a new champion in Laliga but of course we cannot exclude Real Madrid because they have a greater chance of winning the trophy based on experience and ability but that doesn't mean Girona can't win it although the chance is lower. So far we can only monitor who will finish in first place and in the near future we will see who is better when both teams fight each other. Real Madrid and Girona both have great players who are currently on the top scorer list, apart from fighting for the trophy, they also fight for the golden boot. |

This season is a tough one, we can see already more than three teams competing closely for the title. Kelvin De Bruyne’s return is definitely a huge boost for Manchester City who haven’t been at their very best level since his injury. With or without KDB, Manchester City were going to win over Huddersfield anyway so bringing KDB on was just to increase the torture and dominance.
At least the confidence of Manchester City players has increased with the presence of Kevin De Bruyne somehow this player has a big impact in the team we can see a significant difference after De Bruyne played and now Manchester City is ready to start the battle for the top of the standings. In the next match, Manchester City will face Newcastle if Manchester City wins they will be in second place or only 2 points behind Liverpool. Liverpool clearly feels uncomfortable if their competitor is Manchester City because Manchester City is very different from Arsenal and have more ability to catch up, we still remember how these two teams competed in the 2021/2022 season. |

Juventus has probably a missing penalty and they are losing 1-0.
What a terrible day, 45 minutes left for the remuntada.
Damn, really bad day for Juventus when they needed points to catch Inter Milan but the situation got worse, Juventus performance was quite bad in the first half only 5 shot attempts without on target even though almost all users on this forum predict that Juventus will win easily instead of getting 3 points, what happened was unexpected. Juventus might be able to equalize the score but I doubt they can win if they play like they did in the first half, Juventus have 45 minutes to change everything at least one point still gives them hope of fighting for the trophy. |

It is a really important season for Mourinho for sure as he is in his last year of his contract with Roma. If there is no proper improvement then he will probably get sacked. Therefore the Europa League is also extra important for Mourinho. Roma reached the finale in the previous season but got eliminated dramatically against Sevilla. Mourinho was really angry with the referee Anthony Taylor as well as you can remember. Mourinho must be seeing it as an incomplete job now so he would be ambitious for the title here. But to be able to reach the finale again they need to play much more extra than now.  Do you think Roma management will blame Mourinho for Roma's failure? I do not think so because Roma couldn't bring in the players Mourinho wanted so Mourinho's plans were hampered the situation would be different if Mourinho could bring in the players he was targeting. Even if Mourinho has to move next season it won't be because of his failure but because he wants to find a better club and with sufficient financial support, Roma is currently having financial problems which impacts their performance. We can see with the arrival of Lukaku Roma performance is slightly better and imagine if they could bring in more players. |

I agree with you, in fact Chelsea cannot deny that their performance both last season and now shows bad results. Like it or not, we are still discussing facts that are quite bitter in the eyes of Chelsea fans. The instability of player and coach strategies raises many doubts. It does not rule out the possibility of being dragged further away from the top 10 positions. This is clearly a big challenge for the Blues to stake their reputation as a monster English team who lost a lot of momentum to collect points and secure their position. Last season they managed to finish in 12th position, which is a bad record after qualifying for the 2021/22 UCL season.
We are talking about the last 5 matches and Chelsea won 3 of these 5 matches 2 of them were consecutive wins that's why I said Chelsea looked better than in previous weeks, as I said before Chelsea has the opportunity to win in the next match against Fulham because Chelsea is in a more advantageous position. Chelsea's abilities will be tested on February 1 against Liverpool well, if Chelsea can win then we can say they have returned to their best game but of course it wasn't easy because Chelsea was playing away. Honestly, I'm curious to wait for Chelsea's next game and see if the last win was just luck or a team effort. |

What a disappointment for Napoli in the first half as they were unable to break the deadlock. Torino played brilliantly in the first half as they were able to find the back of the net on the 43rd minutes with a beautiful goal from Sanabria who was at the right position at the right time, and he was able to turn in the middle of Napoli two defenders to place the goalkeeper in the last angle of the right side of the post.
He got the assist from Zapata. It was a beautiful way to end the first half. After the break Napoli has been vulnerable to clubs that they clash with. Napoli needs to improve their game in the second half if they want to win this match, because Torino had more chances of scoring than them.
Torino 1-0 Napoli
No hope for Napoli today, a red card and another goal from Torino in the 2nd half sealed the winning for Torino. Napoli hasnt win any away games since December 2023, and their next away schedule is to visit Lazio and Milan. It was a really bad situation for Napoli they couldn't even score a single goal and a red card in the 50th minute ended their chances of equalizing the score, it seems that in the near future Napoli will fall out of the top 10. In other matches, Lazio was still struggling to get 3 points while Udinese tried to maintain a draw because 1 point is quite important for them. Next we will wait to see if Roma can get closer to the European league Roma has the opportunity to take over 5th position from Bologna after they played poorly in the last 2 matches, Roma must be able to take advantage of opportunities as host. |

It is expected that De Bruyne will start playing for the first team this January. His absence in the Manchester tram has really shown in the out put of Erling Halland. And Halland has to score lots of goals for Manchester to be able to win games and possibly climb on the table.
I'm not sure if you didn't notice that Kevin De Bruyne has recovered and played his first game against Sheffield on December 30 that's why Manchester City's game is slowly improving and is in 3rd position, it must be admitted that De Bruyne's presence really had an impact on the team it's just that I'm not sure De Bruyne will be played in today's match. In the near future Manchester City will become Liverpool's main competitor and after playing their 20th match Manchester City is only 2 points behind Liverpool, on the other hand Liverpool will play without Moh Salah because he joined the National team for the African Cup. |
