The hosts are in 18th place with 14 points, and Burnley, who are one position higher, are 8 points ahead; everything currently points to the team's relegation. The visitors are in 5th place, and if their competitors drop points, they could even aim for the Champions League. There had been a run of 6... Show more
I’ll take a risk with a bet against the favorite. Wolfsburg played a cup match against Bundesliga underdogs Schalke on Wednesday. The match was won by a narrow score of 1-0, thanks to a dubious penalty. I didn’t notice much attacking sharpness from Wolfsburg’s players, nor any superiority over Schal... Show more
German football championship... at first I took Bayern Munich with a handicap -1.5, but then a slight doubt crept in, as the team is leaving for the Club World Cup tomorrow and we may see a somewhat experimental lineup. In any case, Bayern Munich are currently favorites in practically every match, e... Show more
The teams exchanged goals in each of their last 6 head-to-head meetings, and at this stage it is already time to act if they want to advance to the next round. The home team also exchanged goals with their opponents in their last 5 matches, while Villarreal did so only twice in my 5, but once again,... Show more
Manchester City had won their last three games against Burnley, and more than 2.5 goals were scored in each match. When these teams met at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City led 3-0 at half-time. Manchester City woke up when 16 goals were scored in six matches. That is an average of 2.7 goals per m... Show more
Leeds won 2 matches and Everton won 0 of their 2 previous meetings. No match between them ended in a draw. Leeds are in poor home form, while Everton are playing very well away. This season in the Premier League, Leeds averaged 1.22 points per game at home, while Everton averaged 2.11 points per gam... Show more
The German Cup, like any cup competition in principle, promises surprises and unexpected twists. Here I see attacking football from both sides. In the head-to-head meetings, we can observe the same activity around the goals. Dortmund is undoubtedly the favorite here, and that is understandable, but ... Show more
Everyone is betting on Galatasaray to win this match; I don't think there will be a surprise in this match. The hosts could move into 1st place if they win, so their motivation is sky-high. Istanbul are 15th in the league table and play very poorly away from home, while Galatasaray, on the other han... Show more
I remember there was a match not long ago. Inter ran over Ronaldo like a steamroller. They did not even let the Portuguese score a goal.
And that was not so long ago. It is time to get revenge!... Show more
Betis have not lost this year: 7 games, 5 wins and 2 draws; in 6 of them, the individual total over 1.5 was hit. Osasuna have played more or less well in defense lately, conceding only once this year, 2 goals against Granada, but they currently have a large number of injured players. And one more fa...

Benfica will be able to count on 7 players for this game who were ill with the virus and had been quarantined. J. Vertonghen (D 13/0), Alex Grimaldo (D 12/2), N. Otamendi (D 10/0), Gilberto (D 11/0), L. Waldschmidt (A 14/6), Nuno Tavares (D 9/0), Diogo Goncalves (M 6/0). The club president also rece... Show more
This is the second leg; in the first match, Everton won 2-0, conceding the initiative to their opponent and skillfully breaking forward on counterattacks while being genuinely sharper than their opponent in terms of chances. Today I expect a similar scenario: Everton have their full squad available ... Show more
Wolves are a good, solid, and balanced team that are recovering from injuries, and their results are starting to improve. They know how to play against top clubs. They like to concede the initiative, play on the opponent's mistakes, and launch counterattacks; Chelsea are exactly that kind of club. T... Show more
