UEFA Champions League - HJK Helsinki Vs FC Viktoria Plzen Prediction

 

 

Pick:AH   FC Viktoria Plzen (-0.5)  @1.95

 

Analysis:

HJK Helsinki

HJK Helsinki have played one match in this tournament, eliminating Rigas Futbola skola on penalty. They are 2nd in Finland Veikkausliga tournament and certainly have an advantage in this respect. HJK Helsinki will play a cautious game trying to strike on the counter-attack and will play a defensive game in a way to destroy their opponent’s manoeuvre.

 

FC Viktoria Plzen

FC Viktoria Plzen have only played friendlies in the last period and have not played any official matches at the moment. Taking a Look at FC Viktoria Plzen's recent games, two of their last three friendlies played have ended goalless. They preformed well in the regular season but it is hard to tell what is going to happen in their first competitive game.

 

Verdict:

HJK Helsinki do not look that reliable and strong. I expect a tight game played with caution by both teams and the result might be few goals.

International Club Friendly - Manchester United vs Crystal Palace

 

 

Pick:1x2   Manchester United  @1.55

OU    Under (3)  @1.90

 

Analysis:

Club friendly at 11:10, Manchester United goes head to head against Crystal Palace in the preseason match tomorrow.

United now has a powerful striking even without Cr7 playing with them. The team has come so far in the preseason with two wins even defeating Liverpool 4-1 and united now has a nice finishing striker.

 

Crystal Palace

Swedish Allsvenskan / GIF Sundsvall vs Hacken Preview

 

 

Analysis:

GIF Sundsvall take on guests BK Häcken at NP3 Arena in this Allsvenskan fixture on Monday.

 

GIF Sundsvall

GIF Sundsvall will play in this game following on from a 1-1 Allsvenskan drawn match versus IFK Värnamo. It has been all too rare in recent games where GIF Sundsvall have shown defensive steel. In fact, GIF Sundsvall have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, giving up 14 goals along the way. We will have to find out whether or not that trend can be continued on into this next match.

 

Hacken

BK Häcken have been effective going forward leading up to this encounter, scoring 14 times in their previous 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that BK Häcken can also improve defensively after being scored against in 6 of those same games.

 

Verdict:

Hacken are the best team in the league and best away performance this season. The 1x2 first odd is 5.50-3.80-1.53, which means support the away team. Hacken should win this game.

 

Away win

International Club Friendly - Tottenham Hotspur vs Sevilla Prediction

 

 

Analysis:

Following a nine-goal thriller with Team K-League, Tottenham Hotspur will play Sevilla in a preseason friendly on Saturday at the Suwon World Cup Stadium in South Korea.

 

Tottenham Hotspur

Conte's team defeated Team K-League 6-3 last time out. The Italian was eager to have the Premier League's fittest team, which had Son Heung-min and Harry Kane spread around the playing surface.

 

Sevilla

Sevilla have yet to play a preseason game this summer. In the last gameweeks of last season, they won just three of remaining 12 league games, dropping from second to fourth. Sevilla managed to fend off Sociedad and Betis to secure their spot in the Champions League. Marcao at center defense is the sole summer acquisition for Sevilla.

 

Prediction

Sevilla's defense even more susceptible to Spurs' propensity for goals. Expect a high-score game this Saturday.

 

Pick: Over

International Club Friendly -- Liverpool vs Crystal Palace Game Preview

 

 

Analysis:

Liverpool will continue preparing for the 2022–23 season on Friday in Singapore when they take on Crystal Palace.

 

Liverpool

With the additions of Darwin Nunez, Fabio Carvalho, and Calvin Ramsay this summer, the majority of the club's summer transfer activity is now finished, and Klopp is pleased with the team he has put together for the next campaign. Liverpool lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League final last season and finished second to Manchester City in the league, although they did win the FA Cup and EFL Cup back-to-back in 2021–22.

 

Crystal Palace

Palace have participated in two friendly this summer, drawing with Accrington Stanley before defeating Millwall. Palace finished the previous season in 12th place. On July 30, Vieira's team will play their final summertime friendly against Montpellier, one week before they host Arsenal to kick off the 2022–23 Premier League season.

 

Prediction

In order to make up for their dismal performance against Manchester United, Liverpool will be eager to win this match. Due to the absence of several key players, Palace will probably struggle over the entire 90 minutes.

 

Pick: Liverpool -1/-1.5
