I call matches like these a fun game. Basically, everything in the group has already been decided; it is unlikely that the Poles will make a big difference, and it is unlikely that the Croatians will lose by a big margin. I see both teams scoring and expect a goal fest.
As much as I would like the Serbian brothers to progress further, the hosts' defense still leaves much to be desired, and the Danes will definitely score, but that does not rule out a victory for the Serbia national team. Denmark will not give up this match easily.
The Romania national team really symbolizes a lot to me. These guys have not scored fewer than 2 yet. They are at home now. The match decides little; a draw is enough. The hosts will play for fun and score their 3 goals. After all, Cyprus allows opponents to convert their chances.
Northern Ireland need a win for a 100% chance of moving up to the higher group, as any other result does not give them the right to advance, and everything will depend on the Bulgaria vs Belarus match, but fortunately the visitors have a suitable opponent.
This match no longer matters to the Spaniards, basically the same as for the Swiss, but there is a catch: Switzerland could drop to Group B and no longer be in the elite, so to speak, while finishing 3rd could still give them a chance to fight and stay in the league. Switzerland should take 5 corner... Show more
Belarus has one of the most reliable defenses in the group, basically, just like Bulgaria. Both need a win. Even if the Bulgarians score against their Belarusian brothers, let it be no more than 1 goal. They kept clean sheets in the previous match.
It seems to me that Croatia will score 2 goals. Scotland, of course, looks pretty good; they were just unlucky with the group. Basically, the hosts have not lost to anyone by more than 1 goal. But it seems that Croatia needs this win more.
The Serbians desperately need a win. Will Serbia score? They should score. Even though they have scored only 2 goals in 4 rounds, against Switzerland no less, they now have a chance to cling to 2nd place, a place in the 1/4 playoff.
Northern Ireland, after a 5-0 win over Bulgaria, I think they are on fire and shining; these guys are doing just fine with corners. The last two matches had 7 taken corners each. This match basically decides 1st place in the table; Ireland will apply pressure throughout the match.
Gibraltar only need a win to stay in 1st place. In the previous match, they somehow managed to score 1 and beat the hosts. This match can of course end in a draw, so we eliminate the risk with a 0 handicap. A draw will be enough for the hosts today, and then Liechtenstein.
I have really liked the Romanians and been impressed by them over the last 2 years. Interesting football and plenty of goals. Tactics, runs. Kosovo is still weaker, as evidenced by the previous head-to-head game; Romania are at home here, and there is only 1 push left.
I believe this is the Poles' last chance to cling to something, and they will not throw the game away; they may even score, perhaps even 2, but if they do lose, it will be by a maximum of 1 goal. The Poles need these 3 points like air, especially considering that the Croats are playing Scotland, whe... Show more
Luxembourg certainly surprised in the match against Belarus, but in this match I expect a 0-0 draw; perhaps someone will score 1 goal and they will sit deep in defense. The teams have scored only 2 goals between them in 4 rounds. Bulgaria scored one of them precisely in the match against the hosts.
The Spaniards are good today, no doubt. Of course, Denmark will still fight for first place in the group, but it will be difficult to achieve against the Red Fury, which may result in them losing by a margin of -1 or more.
Both teams have scored 4 goals over 4 rounds. The Cypriots won the first match 1-0. Although, let’s suppose Lithuania scored 1 goal against everyone except Cyprus. I think the teams do not have much to play for; Lithuania may score 1, as they are in the relegation zone.
Algeria last failed to score only in January against Mauritania. One could count on an Algeria win, but it is not that simple. Equatorial Guinea still has a chance to take 1st place and pull away from their pursuers, Liberia. At the same time, Equatorial Guinea only needs to draw, so I am not bettin... Show more
An interesting match in the sense that it is not interesting at all: the team with the best defense is actually bottom of the group, with only 3 goals conceded in 4 matches, but exactly 0 goals scored. Both sides have a chance here, but Chad need to score for that, which is unlikely; they are unlike... Show more
Togo even has a chance to advance from the group, but to do so they need to beat Liberia away and Equatorial Guinea at home. The plan is quite realistic, despite being 5 points behind Guinea. Guinea will play the group leader, Algeria, and if Guinea lose, Togo will take 2nd place by winning this mat... Show more
Cameroon are the clear favorites in this Africa Cup of Nations match. These teams have already met this year, and Cameroon won 1-0. But later Cameroon gained momentum, while Namibia declined. The hosts finally ended their 7-match winless streak only in their previous match against Lesotho. Namibia a... Show more
Teams of approximately equal strength, as evidenced by both the national championship table and the bookmakers' odds. Team Totals 1.2 versus 1, Match Totals 2.8 versus 2.5, but it should be taken into account that these teams conceded against stronger teams. On average, matches finish with TU 2.
Still, I think the visitors look slightly stronger, although the hosts are considered the favorites, surely because of their home ground. Steaua Bucuresti have not suffered a single defeat yet, and they won their previous home game in July against Metaloglobus Bucharest 2-0. In my opinion, it looks ... Show more
Tiffy Army scored fewer than 1 goal in a match only once this season, precisely against Svay Rieng away from home. The home team has scored 23 goals in 10 matches. Tiffy Army always scores at home. Svay Rieng has conceded in all away matches.
Both teams this season, Van in 13 games and Urartu in 14 games, had 1+ in the 1st half of their matches, except for 2 games for both opponents. In the last 7 head-to-head games, the teams also had a total of 1+ in the 1st half. The teams met recently on November 16, and the 1st half ended 1-1.
Porto are no worse than the hosts. Yes, Benfica play well at home, but they still have 6 goals conceded overall. The goals conceded in home games were against Gil Vicente and Santa Clara. Porto have scored 27 goals, surpassed only by Sporting in 1st place with 35 goals, while they have also conceded... Show more
Barcelona are currently on a seven-match winning streak, with 29 goals in 7 matches, wow. With 5 conceded. Sociedad play poorly at home. The latest European competition match should not have taken much energy from the visitors to win in the national championship.
Real Sociedad suffered 4 defeats in six home matches. Barcelona have a run of 7 consecutive wins, all by a margin of 2+. Barcelona are simply crushing it right now. They beat Real 4-0 and, not long ago, Bayern in a European competition. At the same time, Barcelona dropped points just once in their l... Show more
Eintracht Frankfurt must give Stuttgart a gift in the form of at least 1 goal; Stuttgart is not good enough today to simply defeat Eintracht Frankfurt. Eintracht Frankfurt failed to score at all in their most recent match against Borussia Dortmund back in August.
Krasnodar last scored fewer than 2 goals in a match against Dynamo Moscow back in August. Krasnodar will try to ensure their safety in any case and lead by 2 goals so as not to lose first place in the table.
Krasnodar, just like Zenit, cannot afford to drop points and must win every game. Krasnodar are currently 1st, 3 points ahead of Zenit, while Zenit also have a game today against a weaker opponent. Krasnodar have already played Rubin Kazan this year; in their latest meeting, they thrashed them 4-0. ... Show more
Zenit simply have to win to avoid letting Krasnodar get too far ahead and to remain in contention for the Premier League title this year. Especially against such an opponent, who simply cannot get anything right this season.
Lecce can boast only 4 goals scored against 20 conceded in 11 games this season. Empoli have one of the strongest defenses in the league, although they are 11th in the table. 9 goals conceded and 8 scored in 11 matches.
The Italians played two games and both with a handicap -2. The Italians are in good form, with 9 games unbeaten, playing well in the national championship, while APOEL cannot boast either European matches or matches in the national league. Completely different classes of opponents.
Lazio and FC Porto are attacking teams with not very reliable defenses; the bet on Both Teams to Score looks convincing in this match. In matches involving the Italians, at least three goals have been scored in 12 of the last 14 games. The Portuguese have similar statistics — in 9 of 11 matches.
The Hungarians scored 1 goal in each of the three matches against clubs much stronger than Dyn. Kyiv. At the same time, Dyn. Kyiv conceded 1, 2, and 3 goals in each match. Moreover, both teams are basically strong away from home: Dyn. Kyiv concedes, Ferencvaros scores in every match — that is the mo... Show more
In all three Braga matches, 3 goals were scored; in Elfsborg's matches, the totals were 7, 1 and 5, including against decent opponents. Elfsborg did not lose a single match with a handicap of more than 1, meaning the home team always tries to fight back. It feels like a 2-3 scoreline is realistic in... Show more
It is clear that Olympiacos Piraeus are favorites purely because they are playing at home. If the hosts were away, I would probably have bet a handicap 0 on Rangers. But to avoid taking risks, let’s go with the away team’s Total Over 1, which seems quite achievable to me.
I would like to bet on Twente not to lose, but their first-choice goalkeeper is unavailable. I would like to bet on them to score more than 1, but they seem to have some kind of curse in European competition—only 1. Nice could easily roll over these guys, but they seem not to need the Europa League ... Show more
Ath Bilbao definitely won 2 games at home, but the opponents there were much more interesting. Away, the Spaniards drew 1-1 with Roma. Ludogorets, meanwhile, are showing nothing at all, and even home advantage did not help them against Sparta Prague, losing 0-2; Ath Bilbao, by the way, beat them 1-0... Show more
Tottenham average 7 corners. But this time it will not be an easy game for the visitors, as in the previous ones; in principle, the game will not be easy for either team. They simply will not be able to score 3 unanswered goals as they did against Qarabag, where Spurs failed to beat the total for co... Show more
The Norwegians surprise, while Azerbaijan disappoints. Bodo/Glimt are performing very well in the Europa League, having beaten both Porto and Braga, who are 2nd and 4th respectively in the Portuguese league. At the same time, Qarabag's opponents were by no means stronger than the Norwegians', but th... Show more
Slavia Prague won the first match against Ludogorets, followed by a more serious opponent in the form of Ajax, and here there was already a draw and a defeat to Spanish Athletic Bilbao. At the same time, Eintracht Frankfurt looks good in the German championship, and in the Europa League as well.
The Serbian club Crvena zvezda earns an average of 6.7 corners. Yes, the opponent is in a different class here, but Bayern calmly allows its opponents to take an average of 4.6 corners per match. The Serbs will definitely earn their 3 corners, as these guys will not sit back in defense!
