Girona once again rose to the lead with more than a game to spare. Real Madrid was about to experience a big shock in the last match because they fell behind 2-0 against Almeria. Despite this, they managed to win 3-2 with the goal scored in extra time. These 3 points were vital for them. They are currently still continuing their race with Girona.
It was a deserving win for girona , their performance all through the game was brilliant although at some point Sevilla tried to get some balance but then Girona was still the better side, they had a better possession of the ball and even made more attempts than Sevilla did.

Girona was able to convert their attempts to several goals which personally I didn't expect that the victory will come with such goal margin. It's very obvious if given a chance Girona may end up with the la Liga title this season, they are now one points ahead of their very immediately counterpart Real Madrid and in the past week this has been the trend whereby they both alternate position in-between the top and second on the table, if Real Madrid continues like this and not able to give Girona a good distance away they can be sure to lose the la Liga title to Girona by the end of the season.
After the previous week they failed to win because they were forced to draw by Almeria, this week they did not repeat the same mistake and successfully bulldozed Sevilla with a very heavy score, 5-1. To be honest at first I was a little worried after seeing what they showed in the previous week, because usually if the club achieves something unsatisfactory it will happen again in the next match, or in other words they will repeat the same mistakes, especially Girona this season as a mediocre club that was not predicted to be in this position.
Sevilla can create the first goal in this match, but Girona can respond quickly even less than 10 minutes they can create 3 goals at once making them turn ahead of Sevilla. After that they could play more comfortably because they already had the advantage. In the second half it turned out that they were not satisfied with the 3-1 advantage, and they could again create 2 additional goals and make them win very convincingly.

Al Hilal is the only club that has not experienced defeat to date, they have a complete and solid squad in every position. They have a very sharp attack line, they also have a very solid defense, so far they have only conceded 9 goals in the 19 matches they have played, on average they have conceded less than 1 goal in each match, that is something which is very extraordinary.
Their closest competitor Al Nassr does have a strong attack line too, but they still have problems in the defensive area, they are not very solid in that line, as evidenced by the 23 goals that have penetrated their goal. If they want to unseat Al Hilal then that is a very difficult task, because so far I have seen no club that can beat them, even AL Nassr themselves lost when they met Al Hilal in the first round. 7 points is quite a distance, they have to work hard to catch it while hoping that Al Hilal will slip up.

Al Hilal has 59 goals and conceded only 9, while Al Nassr has 55 goals and conceded 23 so yes, clearly Al Hilal is leading in all factors. Even though it is true that Al Nassr has Ronaldo in its squad but yes, having Ronaldo in the Al Nassr squad does not guarantee that Al Nassr will easily get the Saudi Pro League trophy. Moreover, the very wide gap in points certainly means that Al Nassr seems to have lost the chance to overtake Al Hilal at the top of the Saudi Pro League standings.

Therefore, I personally remain confident that Al Hilal will remain at the top of the standings until the season ends and yes, there is no need for any scenario for Al Hilal to fall to second place. Because after all, with the achievements that Al Hilal has achieved at this moment, Al Hilal can definitely guarantee that they will get the trophy this season.
Well actually the thing that is a problem is this, I mean a lot of people associate Cristiano Ronaldo, yes he is in the Al Nassr squad but still Al Nassr is not at the top of the table, and is even now behind. I am strange with people who have thoughts like this, because in my opinion with the presence or absence of Ronaldo the position of the club is determined by the team itself not determined by an individual person.
I understand maybe because Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best players in the world that most people have high expectations of him. But again that has nothing to do with it, because they are a team. Looking at the individual he can actually make a big contribution to the team, it is proven by the goals he has created. Moreover, we know that they have problems in defense which is not Ronaldo's position.

The only match that might require better consideration is Roma vs Feyenoord, because in my opinion it seems quite evenly matched in terms of strength. On the other hand, Roma has just replaced their old coach, Jose Mourinho with De Rossi, of course that has a big impact on their bargaining value in the European League.
Changing coaches might slightly reduce Roma's chances of qualifying for the round of 16 because the current Roma coach is not an experienced coach and also his coaching experience is not good enough, If Feyenoord knows Roma's weaknesses and can exploit them then this will be a difficult match for Rome.
The bookies do not favor Roma and perhaps because of the host factor because in this first match Roma will be an away match and if Feyenoord can maximize this first match by winning with a large score margin it will make their steps a little easier in the second match even though they have to compete at home to Roma.
I don't want to underestimate De Rossi, even though he is considered a coach who still lacks experience but he can show his best for AS Roma. Xavi at Barcelona was also initially considered an inexperienced coach and not suitable to be a Barcelona coach, but he can show something good even though he is still hampered by some problems.  Xabi Alonso with Leverkusen is also not an experienced coach because he is a new coach, but he can show something very extraordinary that we can see today.
De Rossi himself started his debut with a win, but on the other hand we also can't judge a coach in just one match. I also actually have the same feelings as most people, but I don't want to be too dismissive, because it could be that when he is very familiar with the squad he has, he can provide a thing that is very interesting.

Liverpool's big win over Bournemouth was very natural because the performance or quality of the Liverpool team was much better than Bournemouth's, so it was not surprising when Liverpool won easily.

Currently, the quality of Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal are not much different so it is difficult for us to predict what will happen at the end of the season, but what is certain is that these three teams have the potential to compete fiercely in the race for the Premier League title this season.
I will not underestimate any of these three teams.

It was a really convincing win indeed. In Salah's absence people were wondering what Liverpool were going to do in the games without him. The Bournemouth game was an easy one on paper and Liverpool showed it to us by a solid gameplay. Nunez and Jota scored two goals each to destroy their opponent by 4-0.  Smiley

I'm quite happy for Nunez to score here. Because he really needed some push to improve his performance. This must have made a good impact on his self-confidence. While Salah is away Nunez has more responsibility to keep the scoring productivity at a good level.
They didn't give Bournemouth a chance, but I was worried too when I saw the first half ended without a goal from Liverpool. In the second half they were better, and it didn't take long for them to finally score with 5 minutes on the clock. Darwin Nunez opened and closed the scoring for Liverpool when he got on the scoresheet for the second time in stoppage time.
At the beginning, most people's concern was when they played without M Salah, his influence on the team was quite large so when he could not play it was a concern among some people. But they can prove that even without M Salah, they can still win with a landslide score.
This result makes them more comfortable at the top of the standings at least for this week, because they have a difference of 5 points from their closest rival, Manchester City who has 43 points, but they have 1 match superior.
1065  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can loneliness make one addicted to gambling on: January 22, 2024, 06:32:12 AM
Well for starters loneliness can cause so many things, I mean it's just like a popular saying in my part which implies loneliness or an idle mind is the devil workshop which to Some extend is quite true . So yesterday I was really bored and didn't exactly even know what to do so I was just trying out things that would keep my mind occupied and all of a sudden my friend told me that he is also bored that he has some pair cash that the gambling house would be a perfect place to go and atleast have some fun since the cash isn't having any significant value and that was how loneliness and boredom took to go play some game of card which if you ask can really cause someone to be addicted if not control.
And this means that in order to avoid this happening to us we need to develop a new set of hobbies, since this will take our minds away from engaging in dangerous behaviors, and what is funny about all of this is that if a person did it then not only they will alleviate their boredom, but most likely they will end their loneliness as well, as with so many interesting things you do, you will find other people that will like to share their time with you.

That's very true friend, I agree with you that in any case the first thing that must be addressed is the root of the problem, as you said and you give good advice that if we want to avoid several actions that could possibly lead to dangerous activities then Obviously the main point that must be justified is to eliminate the feeling of loneliness within oneself. I understand that some people are unemployed and don't know what they should do to avoid feeling lonely, but with the alternative of looking for a new hobby, this can be  considered, even though we are unemployed and don't have a job, but as long as we can still move, I think there's no harm in Do something else instead of locking yourself in your room where in the end there is great potential for you to think about trying your luck at gambling. In my opinion, we will not have too much difficulty taking any preventative measures if we are aware from the start and can identify the dangerous impacts of something like  gambling..
1066  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another question? Tell me your average amount per bet and your monthly income? on: January 22, 2024, 06:15:53 AM
For me I hardly play gamble but when ever I play, I spend about $10 in a month while some times I don't even play up to $5 in a month. I am not a too much fans of gambling.  my income is about $150 per month and am always sceptical of playing gamble in other not to be addicted to an extent of becoming a chronic gambler. Because to make yourself one is easy, but to pull out will require struggles.
Using $10 is enough for you to gamble because I see you don't gamble too often, so that amount can already be allocated $10. You have to be able to stay like that because the temptation of gambling is very strong and can make someone who rarely gambles gamble more often. This is what we must avoid when playing gambling because it can cause gambling addiction, which is a serious problem for every gambler who gambles too often. They must be able to restrain themselves from gambling too often so they don't get addicted to gambling.

Yes that's right, the point is as small as possible or in an amount that we can be responsible for, I can't suggest how much they should allocate to their gambling activities because only they know and realize how much their monthly income is and maybe a little idea is that it is more advisable for anyone to only put the amount of 2% - 5% of their total income and this is also the percentage that I always do in terms of putting money on gambling.

Over-approach is always a bad thing and not recommended, and yes you said it, the fear is that we will fall for all the temptations that exist and look like something tantalizing but in fact it is nothing more than a temptation that appears that will usually only trap ourselves. I think understanding what gambling actually is and how it works is something that every gambler should have because with the right understanding it will be easier for them to apply limits with the aim of minimizing possible risks.
1067  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you be worried or comfortable seeing your elderly mother gambling? on: January 22, 2024, 05:55:09 AM

Yes, in my country too, gambling activities are strictly prohibited, because this can damage the personality of a child and also his future will be threatened. Basically everyone does have a thing for gambling because after all they are using their own money but the fear is that they can't control themselves and instead end up with a lot of problems in life, so that's why the public's perspective on gambling is very negative especially in my place.
The children of a family usually receive their primary education from their parents. Of course, in this case, if the parents are addicted to the harmful drug called gambling, there will be a bad effect on the children of those parents, without a doubt. Moreover, the education that a child receives from his parents will begin to reflect that education in his real life.Learning to gamble from parents will surely reflect bad education from parents later in career. Moreover, a drug addict mother and father are always mentally disturbed and in such a condition a parent can never give positive education to their child, in this case the career of the child will be ruined only because of the bad influence of the parents. So a parentOne should never indulge in gambling or any other vice in front of the child as a child learns by following his parents and starts reflecting his intelligence accordingly.

Yes, education from both parents is indeed a common thing that all parents do and it is true that the behavior of a child usually will not differ much from his parents because parents apply something they know that they think is good for their children. For the problem of parents teaching gambling activities to their children, to be honest, I really never thought in that direction, because what I know is that no matter how bad parents are, they usually always want the best for their children in the future and that means there is little chance for them to teach gambling to their children, but on the other hand maybe there are some parents out there who do silly things like this.

But on the other hand although both parents always want the best for their children the story would be different if as you said that one or even both parents are those who suffer from drug addiction or gambling. it is very clear that education will not be maximized in such a situation because the psychological disorders that a drug addicted person is likely to have make it possible for them to not be able to apply good education to their children, maybe they can even completely ignore this, and as a guarantee it is clear that the future of a child can be threatened. Yes, that's right, the conclusion is that parents should really hide their bad activities and keep them out of sight of their children, after all prevention is better.
1068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your state on mind if your son stole your money to gamble? on: January 22, 2024, 12:00:05 AM


Question: would she be so disheartened and mad as this if the son had won the bet on a multi million price?
It's not gambling that will make me angry, it's how he steals from his family whether he will use it to gamble or for anything, you don't and you never steal from your family, it is dishonesty, cheating and a sign of bad character and it reflects on the whole family.

Well that's right, before going into gambling we can discuss from the other side first, as you discuss here that the child already has a bad personality and morals in him so that he can have the courage to steal money from one of his family members, and is this as a result of the wrong upbringing of parents? this can be used as an excuse but I can't be completely sure, because on the other hand I think that indeed the impact of gambling involvement can also make a person act out of control especially if he has entered the addiction phase in the sense that he is hopeful and cannot miss the slightest time not to gamble.

We can see that it is not uncommon for cases to occur that gamblers who are addicted to them are desperate to commit acts out of control such as robbery or other criminal acts and one of the causes is because gambling activities have affected their common sense. So the point is in this problem in my opinion there are two things that can be the reason why a child can be reckless like that.
1069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you be worried or comfortable seeing your elderly mother gambling? on: January 21, 2024, 11:46:07 PM
Realistically, no one would want their mother or grandmother to find themselves in such a situation. I definitely don't want my mother to get addicted to online or offline gambling. Gambling in our country is strictly prohibited by the government and against the laws of the country. Here adult youths are involved in the activities of drug addiction, gambling addiction etc. So women in my country cannot be directly involved in gambling but young girls are now getting involved in online gambling. But there is no record of any elderly women and mothers being addicted to this gambling.

Of course it is true, I think that no matter how bad a child is, they must have the same thoughts as us that they do not want one of their family members, especially their own mother, to be trapped in the gambling zone, especially if they have entered the addiction phase, none other than because the impact of gambling is very bad, they will not only lose a certain amount of money but will also certainly experience unusual mental stress because the pressure in such situations is very large and it is not uncommon for me to often see several media channels reporting that some gamblers end up experiencing stress.

Yes, in my country too, gambling activities are strictly prohibited, because this can damage the personality of a child and also his future will be threatened. Basically everyone does have a thing for gambling because after all they are using their own money but the fear is that they can't control themselves and instead end up with a lot of problems in life, so that's why the public's perspective on gambling is very negative especially in my place.
1070  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: why do people always play gambling even if they always lose? on: January 21, 2024, 11:26:28 PM
If there are gamblers like that, or that means always continuing to play even though they basically always lose at the end of the session then maybe it seems like I can already conclude that they have entered the addiction phase, of course there is an unusual urge in them that makes them unable to stop gambling, and that urge is too high hopes and expectations of winning in gambling so that no matter what they lose they will continue because they have beliefs like "I'm sure I can get a big win".

Beliefs like this become a very big push and especially if when they are struggling it turns out that they hear one of their friends get a big win then obviously they will consider it as motivation that they must be even more enthusiastic in pursuing the big wins they have always dreamed of. However this is a very wrong mindset in gambling because anyone will never know when they will be able to win and what happens instead they will experience losing money gradually and slowly, this is the importance of why we must understand everything first before finally entering and getting involved, because of course if not then you will go down the wrong path which will certainly torture yourself.
1071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: January 21, 2024, 11:03:40 PM
Don’t gamble according to what you need or you will likely lose money because of the desperation. Let’s assume I need $100k, I think that it would be foolish to play tickets that will be trying to achieve that amount directly instead of playing little by little and building it up. It’s better this way as you won’t be so desperate and pick unnecessary games that could ruin it all. Take your time as you need to.
Betting is just a game and not for making money. Someone who needs $100k should be able to just look for a job. He will find it difficult to make $100 from gambling because he will probably lose all his money, especially if he bets very large amounts of money. He could win, but it depended on his luck, so he couldn't expect to get a big profit even if it was possible. But he should be able to get a match that he really knows which team to choose and which can win. He can also place bets with rather large amounts of money, but it is still risky even though he can do it by accepting the risk.

True, betting is nothing more than a game of chance, all gamblers who come and get involved they play the luck that is in them in the sense that it is never known whether in the session they do they will be lucky by getting a win or not at all in the sense of losing, it is a very silly and careless idea if someone enters gambling with the aim of looking for a winning target like the amount of $100 you mentioned, it could be that instead of getting that result they lose more than that.

In sports sometimes even very strong teams are very likely to lose to some medium teams, we can see with what is happening in the EPL and Bundesliga, most of the teams that are favored have slumped especially in this season and it is not uncommon for some of the gamblers who bet there to lose money, this is sports betting that basically there is something we can analyze based on the history of the strength of the previous team, especially if we bet on a type of gambling that is pure luck then I would really advise not to target anything, especially victory because it will only make us feel disappointed when luck is away from us, this is one of the proofs and reasons that in gambling risk cannot be completely avoided.
1072  Economy / Gambling / Re: Responsible gambling on: January 21, 2024, 10:43:19 PM
I don't think gambling can change anyone's bad manners or behavior.. Gambling is an addicting activity. doing it within a reasonable time lime is fine. but if someone gets addicted to it. I might worsen his manners even more like every other habit out there, so don't take gambling as a therapy  Wink

Does any therapist even recommend gambling for anything? Like, because you are passing through some kind of mental challenge, they will now recommend gambling to you? I don't think that's possible, but it's possible for a therapist to tell a gambler to gamble once in a while in order to reduce his stress and boredom, which is recommendable.
 
But on the aspect of those who are already violent in nature and get themselves involved in any manner of ill behaviour, it's highly advisable for such a person to be taken out of gambling because the emotional stress that gambling can add to the person's current state means they can end up performing the unthinkable. The best practice for such a person is social gathering for them to socialise and adopt others way of life.

Really I haven't seen any therapist that refer patients to gambling to solve any of they issues before and for that,it clear that gambling can't be taken as recreational activities since it own effects can also affect the individual, so for that gambling is mostly refer to as fun because of the games excitements sometimes and this have no recommendations for any positive outcome of anyone is already facing issues as anxiety stress or whatever  nature of mental help needed.

Gambling is fun when an adult plays the game just to pass time and enjoy the process, and not anything close or near doctor prescriptions since no doctor will do that at some point in time.

Haha yes and this is also one of the first ridiculous things I heard involving gambling, how could a doctor refer his suffering patient to turn to gambling or I mean indirectly make gambling a cure to solve the patient's problem, and obviously this is the wrong thing and in my opinion it is a doctor who does not have common sense who gives advice like this to his patients. As you said, gambling as a whole is a pleasure activity and is not at all recommended for people who have previous problems, because obviously if someone does this then they are not solving the previous problem but instead will add new problems as a result of gambling.

I understand that this is an entertainment activity as I said before but we have to look at the other side that there is a possibility of a much greater risk which will certainly endanger the patient even more.

Once again Almeria is a very troublesome club for a top club, previously Girona had to settle for a draw, and now Real Madrid are forced to trail by 2 goals before they can equalize in the second half. Real Madrid did control the game, but Almeria managed to make Real Madrid difficult, especially in the first half. In fact, they could have taken better advantage of opportunities, practically they had no chances in the first half apart from 2 opportunities which they immediately converted into goals.
In less than 10 minutes the match was over, the score was still tied at 2-2. Real Madrid continues to look for ways to dismantle the Almeria defnse in search of 1 additional goal to enable them to win. It's not easy because Almeria is now focusing on defense to maintain their lead, will Real Madrid suffer the same fate as Girona? if yes it is an advantage for Girona.
1074  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: January 21, 2024, 04:45:12 PM
Yes, money is one of the factors why the same thing happens in Ligue 1, Paris Saint Germain is very dominant there, this cannot be separated from the financial capabilities they have, while other clubs do not have the capabilities as big as Paris Saint Germain has. We'll see when they brought in 3 strikers labeled as stars at that time, only they were able to do that, not to mention the privileges given to one of the players who is currently a problem.
If only other clubs had the same abilities as Paris Saint Germain, I am very sure they would be able to keep up with Paris Saint Germain in the competition. In my opinion, that's what they have to fix first, how their income can increase to be able to make changes to the squad. Because it cannot be denied that differences in financial capabilities ultimately create distance between clubs.
No matter how long we try to talk about Paris Saint Germaine's dominance in the French league, the truth is that they'll continue to be at the top of the league and dominate the league as long as they want until other clubs in the league decides to step up their games and starts investing in their respective clubs like Paris Saint Germaine's management are currently doing.

You don't expect a club who spend so huge like Paris Saint Germaine on almost all the transfer windows to struggle to win the league with clubs that mostly rely on breeding young talents into becoming world class players. The financial strength of Paris Saint Germaine is undoubtedly stronger than any club in the French league and I'm very optimistic that they'll continue to dominate the league until another big investor takes over the ownership of another French club
That's all they could do before big investors came to them, but coaching young players hasn't really made a big difference for them, whether it's because they don't have good management or something else. Because if we compare it with other big clubs in Europe, they are quite successful in carrying out coaching which ultimately allows them to utilize the players they coach to join the main squad.
Barcelona is one of the clubs that is successful with their development program, many young players are born from what they do. But now they also have unresolved problems, and that is also due to unhealthy financial factors. From there we can learn that in football business should not be ignored, because it will have a big impact on the club.

Agree. Salah has a big role, Liverpool will decrease their attacking power significantly if Salah is leaving Liverpool. We must remember Liverpool performance is decreasing a lot when Mane left the club. I can't imagine if Salah leaves Liverpool, too. I doubt if Klopp can get a proper player to replace Salah's position. Klopp even failed to get a proper replacement of Mane.

It is true that Salah has a huge role in Liverpool; yet Salah is an old winger and would be replaced soon by Liverpool anyways

The best opportunity would be to let go while making good amounts of money fit to get a quality replacement in the mold of Mohammed Salah.
It won't be easy to find a player who has the same quality, that is definitely something Liverpool considered before releasing M Salah to another club. In my opinion they have to do it from now on, they have to look for a replacement who can later be an ideal replacement for M Salah. Because it is not uncommon for a new club to look for a replacement player when the player has left the club, in the end they have difficulty finding a replacement.
For example, as happened with Real Madrid, when they released Benzema, until now they still haven't found a player who can replace his position well. They brought in Joselu, but he couldn't really become a worthy player to fill that void. Luckily they have productive players like Jude Bellingham so that when they have difficulties he is there to be a differentiator on the field.

The same thing keeps repeating itself in Ligue 1, yes at the beginning of the season there are clubs that stand out that provide competition to Paris Saint Germain, but when entering the middle of the season and towards the end of the competition, the clubs that played well at the beginning experience a decline which in turn allows Paris Saint Germain to comfortably be at the top of the table without pressure.
I think this will continue to happen as long as the clubs in Ligue 1 can't raise their level to that of Paris Saint Germain. Paris Saint Germain with all their advantages can comfortably become champions.
This is what makes the league look monotonous because only that can compete at the top of the table. I am more happy when I see the competition at the bottom because at the bottom they can have quite an interesting competition.

Every season we see a repetition of the same thing. Several teams performed well at the start of the season. And they fight hard with PSG for the top spot in the table. But gradually the performance of each team started to become erratic, on the other hand the performance of PSG became stronger. At the end of the season we see PSG team as champions of Ligue 1.

PSG is a very rich club. And they spend a lot of money on player purchases and player wages. Other teams in Ligue 1 are not interested in spending so much money. So they cannot strengthen their squad much. Can't add any star players to the squad. So naturally every season we see the dominance of PSG.
Yes, money is one of the factors why the same thing happens in Ligue 1, Paris Saint Germain is very dominant there, this cannot be separated from the financial capabilities they have, while other clubs do not have the capabilities as big as Paris Saint Germain has.

Of course, we can see changes in the top ranks because the quality of the league is so high that even teams that are close to relegation can get points from the big teams. This suddenly changes the fate of the entire league. Arsenal still has the chance to win the title. They played one more match and their points are in good shape. If Liverpool and Manchester City drop points, Arsenal can get into the pot again.
The league is strong, but do Bournemouth really have a chance of taking the points away from Liverpool today? Why is there such a high odds on Liverpool, 1.79 is suspiciously high, even taking into account that Liverpool will play away, and several players have been called up to play for their national teams, Liverpool still remains as strong.

I looked, Bournemouth had a very impressive winning streak, and apart from the last defeat to Tottenham, they look very cool, so it might not be easy for Liverpool today.
This week is a very crucial week for all clubs in the top flight, because they have to win every week considering that the distance between one club and another is not far. Liverpool will be the club that will compete today, it looks like they will play all out even without the presence of their mainstay plyers. Bournemouth on paper is no better than Liverpool, even though they are playing away, that does not diminish their status over the hosts who will host them.
The target of 3 points will be their target every week and that will also be proven in this mtch. Bournemouth also certainly don't want to be losers, they will try hard to stop Liverpool's progress at the top of the stndings. If they can't win then they will try to force a draw. We'll see how far Bournemouth will go in resisting Liverpol.

Al Hilal is the only club that has not experienced defeat to date, they have a complete and solid squad in every position. They have a very sharp attack line, they also have a very solid defense, so far they have only conceded 9 goals in the 19 matches they have played, on average they have conceded less than 1 goal in each match, that is something which is very extraordinary.
Their closest competitor Al Nassr does have a strong attack line too, but they still have problems in the defensive area, they are not very solid in that line, as evidenced by the 23 goals that have penetrated their goal. If they want to unseat Al Hilal then that is a very difficult task, because so far I have seen no club that can beat them, even AL Nassr themselves lost when they met Al Hilal in the first round. 7 points is quite a distance, they have to work hard to catch it while hoping that Al Hilal will slip up.

In fact, I quite hoped that Celta Vigo could put up fierce resistance and even score a goal against Real Sociedad, but it seems that this did not materialize in last night's match and the hosts had to collapse at home. I bet BTTS (Yes) because I saw that Celta Vigo would probably still be able to score goals even if the result was a loss or a draw but what happened was that they couldn't do much and had to concede one goal to Real Sociedad.

A 0-1 win for Real Sociedad can definitely increase the morale of the players in the next match because we know that this team has had quite a hard time lately to win and it can be seen from the previous 5 matches that Real Sociedad only lost 1x and 4 draws. This result also allows Real Sociedad to maintain its position in 6th position in the standings and stay away from being chased by Valencia.
It was an ordinary match, but it seemed that Real Sociedad's 11th-minute lead made both clubs more cautious in the remaining time which was still very long.
Statistically they're not that different and I'd say a draw would have been a fair result for both. But a quick goal by Real Sociedad saw them take home 3 points from Celta Vigo.
Real Sociedad are still trying hard to break into the top 4, something they can do but it's quite difficult I think. Because the clubs above them still have 2 games ahead, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
Oh yes, they also have a Champions League match against Francis' Paris Saint Germain. I hope they have made preparations for that difficult match. They have a chance to get rid of Paris Saint Germain early.

Bayan Munich vs Bremen is one of the exciting matches between these two teams and this match is going to be held at Munich's home ground. Each team plays best at their home ground and can attack strongly as each team performs well at their home ground so today match will definitely win Bayern Munich. Bremen can't perform so well in today's match because they are not a strong team but a normal team and they are not in a good position in the points table. Bayern Munich is currently in the best form, this team has the best stars, especially among the world's best stars, Harry Kane, he can perform amazingly, and in his great form, Bayan Munich is currently at the top. Although currently in the best position in the Bundesliga, Laverkusen are still unbeaten and they are at the top of the points table with Bayern Munich playing well in every match to challenge them but still they are not able to get back to that position. Still Bayan Munich is 7 points behind Laverkusen, of course if they can win today's match against Bremen then their points will increase in the points table and Bayan Munich will definitely win the match today.
The match has started and entering the 13th minute the position is still 0-0. with Bayern Munich's ability, I'm sure they will be able to win this match. overall, Bremen is not a match for Bayern Munich and especially they will play as the host which will be a distinct advantage for Bayern Munich in this match.
Bayern Munich are still 4 points behind Leverkusen at the moment, so they are required to win this match to cut their gap with Leverkusen.
Leverkusen themselves have played this week and they successfully defeated Leipzig with a thin score of 3-2.  They worked very hard in that match, because indeed the match was one of the matches that was quite difficult for them. But they managed to secure 3 points and managed to go home with joy.
