Australia A-League / Brisbane Roar vs Melbourne City Preview

Melbourne City head to Suncorp Stadium on Wednesday for the A-League meeting with home side Brisbane Roar.

 

Brisbane Roar

Brisbane Roar have won their last 2 games in a row, their first away win of the season with a 4-1 victory over Perth Glory. And with four wins, a draw and a loss at home, they are confident.

 

Melbourne City

Melbourne City has been unbeaten in 7 consecutive matches and is in stable form. However, they have won 1 and drawn 3 in their last 4 games, which is a step down from their previous matches. They are strong in attack but have conceded goals in six consecutive games.

 

Verdict:

There is a huge gap between the two teams and Roar have only 1 won, 1 drawn and 4 loose in their last 6 times against City. The 1X2 first odds is 4.00-3.80-1.80, which means support the away team. City should win ths game.

Pick: 2

NBA Match Preview -- Orlando Magic vs Golden State Warriors

 

The Golden State Warriors pay a visit to the Orlando Magic at the Amway Center on Tuesday night.

 

Orlando Magic

The Orlando Magic have done well in the past 12 games and will seek to build some momentum after beating the Thunder 90-85 at home on Sunday. Wendell Carter Jr. led the team with 30 points and 16 rebounds, while Franz Wagner scored 11 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.

 

Golden State Warriors

The Golden State Warriors have lost seven of their last 11 games. They are in a bit of a bad state. After losing 110-108 to the Spurs on Sunday, they hope to avoid losing for the third time in a row. Jordan Poole led the team with 28 points and Klay Thompson got 24 points.

 

Prediction

The Warriors will once again lose Stephen Curry, and the Magic will once again lose Jalen Suggs who is dealing with an ankle injury. The Magic recently played some good basketball. They looked great on the defensive side in their victory over the thunder. I prefer the them to hang out at home and get cover.

 

 

Tips: Orlando Magic +8.5

Italian Serie A - Bologna VS Atalanta Tips & Match Preview

 Bologna will meet Atalanta at home in this round of fixture on Serie A.

 

Bologna

Bologna are in poor forms recently. They suffered 3 winless rounds since they lost to Fiorentina by 0:1 in last away game. Their win rate in past 10 rounds is only 20%. Also, their offensive strength is week as they couldn’t score any single goal in 5 out of past 10 matches, and only scored 8 goals totally.

 

Atalanta

Atalanta suffered a decline due to injury problems, but at present, with the return of the wounded, Atlanta has gradually stabilized in the recent performance. They defeated Bayer Leverkusen in two legs and successfully advanced to the quarter-finals on UEFA Europa League.

However, their away forms are poor. They lost last 2 away games on League since they were beaten by AS Roma. To be mentioned, although they scored 16 goals totally in past 10 games, they also conceded 11 goals totally, being in poor defenses.

 

Prediction:

The Asian Handicap odd of this game is Atalanta-0.5, low return. Atlanta is a European-level team in the league. Even if their strength is weakened due to injuries, their performance has gradually improved recently, the advantage of good substitutes is reflected. Therefore, Atlanta still has a certain advantage in scoring points for the team.

 

1X2 Pick: 2

English Premier League -- Aston Villa vs Arsenal Game Preview

When Aston Villa welcome them to Villa Park for the Premier League kick-off early on Saturday, Arsenal will try to get their top-four back on track.

 

Aston Villa

Steven Gerrard's men ended their three consecutive league wins after losing 2-1 to West Ham United last time out. Villa's three straight victories without conceding have allowed them to consolidate their position in the top half of the Premier League table - in ninth place.

 

Arsenal

The Gunners lost 2-0 to Liverpool last time out. Arteta saw his team's five-game winning streak at the Emirates end in a frustrating way, but the Gunners still took the lead in the Champions League - fourth and ahead of Manchester United by two points. The Gunners can gain confidence from four victories in the Premier League, and they scored 13 goals on the opponent's grass during that time.

 

Prediction

Villa Park has not been a happy hunting ground for the Gunners recently, but villa still lack a little stability. We think Arteta's men have the ability to win a close game and consolidate their position in fourth place.

 

 

1X2 Pick: 2

Final Results: 0-1, 1-2

Australia A-League / Newcastle Jets vs Wellington Phoenix Preview

 The A-League meeting at McDonald Jones Stadium on Friday sees home team Newcastle United Jets facing opposition in the form of Wellington Phoenix.

 

Newcastle Jets

The Jets have scored 24 goals in 15 league games, average of 1.6, but they have conceded 9 goals in 4 consecutive games. They are conceded 1.87 goals per game and are the worst defensive team in the league.

 

Wellington Phoenix

Wellington Phoenix lost 2-1 to Brisbane Roar in their last trip, ending a 6 game unbeaten run and demoralising the team. They are very good at home, but very bad away from home, and are the only 2 teams in the league who have not won away from home.

 

Verdict:

There is not much difference between the two teams. The 1X2 first odds is 2.20-3.50-3.10, seems no clearly support to both side. Jets should take points in this game.

England Championship / Peterborough United vs Swansea City Preview

The Championship game at Weston Homes Stadium on Wednesday will see hosts Peterborough United playing against Swansea City.

 

Peterborough United

Peterborough United enter this game coming off the back of a 2-2 Championship drawn match versus Stoke City. It’s been all too rare in recent games that Peterborough United have shown defensive steel. The reality is that Peterborough United have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous 6 clashes, giving up 13 goals on the way. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward into this match, though.

 

Swansea City

Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Blackpool in Championship competition, Swansea City and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. Proving their predisposition for eventful matches, we’ve had goals 21 times in the last six matches in which Swansea City have taken to the pitch, making it a mean average of 3.5 goals each fixture. Opposition teams have hit 12 from this total.

 

Verdict:

Morale and form in Peterborough are very bad. The 1X2 first odds is 3.25-3.30-2.15, which means support the away team. Swansea should win ths game.
