Analysis:

Manchester City

The host enters this clash having won over Athletico Madrid a win that no one expected, goalless draw in Spanish capital was enough for Manchester City to progress to the semi finals for the second season.

Portugal Primeira Liga - Sporting Braga Vs FC Porto

 

 

Pick:1x2   FC Porto @1.80

   OU    Under (2.5/3) @1.85

 

Analysis:

Sporting Braga goes head to head against FC Porto on Monday at Estadio Municipal de Braga

 

Braga

After losing their match against Ranger, their next match against Estoril was a draw 0-0, like the team has been on the bad side of luck. Braga has played five matches (W3, D1, L1), with six goals scored in their last five matches. 4th at the table with the focus on qualifying for the champion league and haven't lost a home game in their last five matches.

 

FC Porto

FC Porto successfully had a good run of five clean sheets in the competition and has won all away games in their last five with a margin of one goal to win the game but a different story at home. In their last five games(W5) and 1st at the table with every chance of making it to the UEFA Champions League next season.

 

Verdict

Porto has drawn every away game against Braga in their last meetings but had the lead.

English Premier League Game Preview -- Arsenal vs Manchester United

 

 

Pick:1x2   Arsenal @2.05

 

Analysis:

Arsenal and Manchester United resume hostilities in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon at the Emirates, in a contest that may make or break both clubs' top-four hopes.

 

Arsenal

With a thrilling 4-2 victory against Chelsea on midweek, the Gunners revived their Champions League hopes. Arsenal still hold fourth place, with Arteta's side behind Tottenham Hotspur on goal differential ahead of what appears to be a crucial North London derby on May 12. Despite losing back-to-back home games to Liverpool and Brighton, Arsenal still has the third-best record in the division with 32 points on home soil.

 

Manchester United

In a 4-0 loss to Liverpool, Ralf Rangnick's squad surrendered. On goal difference, the squad slid below Arsenal into sixth place, and a loss at the Emirates would put them six points below their North London rivals despite having played one more game. Man United have won just two of their previous seven Premier League games, losing each of their last three away from home.

 

Prediction

Man United's shaky backline might be in for a hard ride against Arteta's side if Arsenal's new- look side can generate similar levels of incisiveness as they did against Chelsea, and we can only see the Gunners completely destroying the Red Devils' top-four ambitions while giving theirs a big boost.

 

 

German Bundesliga Pred iction - VfL Wolfsburg VS FSV Mainz 05

 

 

Pick:1x2    VfL Wolfsburg @2.55

 

Analysis:

German Bundesliga Round 31 is coming this week. A game between VfL Wolfsburg and FSV Mainz 05 will be at the beginning of this Round.

 

VfL Wolfsburg

In the last game, they lose to Borussia Dortmund 1-6, which hurts their morale. They are thirteenth at the table of the League. They almost reach their goal of safety. But it is not done yet. They have to put more effort.

 

FSV Mainz 05 

They are ninth at the table of the League. As it is far away from both European games qualification and relegation, there is a lack of ambitions in the team. In the last game, they tie with VfB Stuttgart 0-0.

 

Verdict:

FSV Mainz 05 got a winning streak from VfL Wolfsburg in the past 3 h2h games, which makes them have a psychological advantage. But FSV Mainz 05 are aimless. VfL Wolfsburg have a home advantage. It is believed that VfL Wolfsburg will take one point from FSV Mainz 05 at least in the coming match.

 

 

Spanish La Liga - Real Sociedad Vs FC Barcelona

 

 

Pick:1x2   FC Barcelona @2.20

  OU    Under (2.5) @2.00

 

Analysis:

Real Sociedad goes head to head against FC Barcelona on Thursday.

 

Real Sociedad

Real Sociedad lost a great chance to get into La Liga's top Five, even with a goalless draw against Real Betis extending their unbeaten league run(W3, D2). Qualifying for Europe for the third time running looks as difficult as ever, and they find it difficult to win against big teams this season including Barcelona 4-2. Extending that would give them their first LL clean sheet against Barcelona since a 1-0 win in April 2016, which was also the last time Sociedad won a league H2H.

 

FC Barcelona

Saw two defeats in their last two matches, with the UEFA Europa League loss to Frankfurt earlier this month has made the league their only way to the Champion League for next season. The recent loss against Cadiz was 1-0 halted an unbeaten 15 game(W11, D4).

Barcelona has won more away games so far under Xavi and securing the win means a lot to the club, trophyless this season again.

 

Prediction

Real Sociedad has been defeated by Barcelona in their last four meetings but teams have had difficulties in scoring in their last match.
