UEFA Champions League -- Real Madrid vs FC Shakhtar Donetsk Game Preview

 

 

Analysis:

For the third consecutive year, Real Madrid will host Shakhtar Donetsk at Santiago Bernabeu for their Champions League match.

 

Real Madrid

With wins over Celtic and RB Leipzig in their first two European games, Real Madrid are in first place with six points in the division. But their nine-game winning streak at the start of the 2022–23 season was snapped on Sunday when they were held to a 1–1 draw by Osasuna in La Liga, dropping them to second place behind Barcelona in the standings.

 

FC Shakhtar Donetsk

With a 4-1 win against RB Leipzig and a 1-1 draw with Celtic, Shakhtar have had a strong start to their Group F campaign. With four points, they are now in second place ahead of their weekend matchup with Real Madrid. Mykhaylo Mudryk has impressed in the Champions League this season for two goals and six assists in six games across all competitions.

 

Prediction

I anticipate this to be a difficult game for Real Madrid since Shakhtar are more than capable of winning on Wednesday. But because the defending champions have been so dominant to this point in the campaign, we are betting on them to score three more points.

 

 

Pick: 2

Total: Over 3 Goals

France Ligue 1 - Angers vs Marseille Prediction

 

Analysis:

France Ligue 1 round 9 will kick off with a game between Angers and Marseille at Jean-Bouin Stadium on Friday.

 

Angers

They have recently been on a winning streak, are recovering their form, and have scored three goals while only conceding one. It is obvious that they have improved their defense efforts. They now hold the fifteenth spot in the League rankings.

 

Marseille

This season, they have yet to suffer a league defeat. At the moment, they are ranked second on the League table. Without a question, they are vying for the championship. They perform well on both offence and defence, with 2 scoring goals and 0.63 conceding goals on average of this season.

 

Verdict:

Marseille's advantage over Angers. The busy game schedule was a factor in Marseille's poor performance a few days ago. After the international break, they will fully recuperate. Marseille will probably win in the upcoming game.

 

Pick: 2

 

AH Pick: Marseille -0.5

German Bundesliga / Bayern Munchen vs Bayer Leverkusen

 

Analysis:

Bayer Leverkusen are the guests at Allianz Arena on Friday for the Bundesliga 1 clash with home team Bayern Munich.

 

Bayern Munchen

Their latest results shine a light on the fact that not much more can be done by the Bayern Munich rearguard. Bayern Munich have kept it tight, resulting in the tally of goals that have gone in at their end during their last 6 clashes standing at 4. It will be interesting to see whether or not that trend can be sustained into this next match.

 

Bayer Leverkusen

Previously, Bayer Leverkusen drew 1-1 in the Bundesliga 1 match with Werder Bremen. Gerardo Seoane's Bayer Leverkusen have fired home a total of 10 times throughout their latest six matches. The overall goals that they have conceded during those matches adds up to 7.

 

Verdict:

Bayern Munchen have not been consistent in the league this season, but they are much better than Leverkusen. The 1x2 first odds is 1.33-6.00-7.00, which means support the home team. Bayern Munchen should win this game.

 

Bayern Munchen-1.75

 

Brazil Serie A - Fortaleza vs Flamengo Prediction

 

 

Analysis:

Estadio Placido Aderaldo Castelo will witness a game between Fortaleza and Flamengo on Thursday.

 

Fortaleza

They are exhausted as a result of many fronts. They played nine games in July, winning just one. They briefly recover after being knocked from the Brazil Cup, but they are subsequently winless four straight games.

 

Flamengo

In their most recent game, which they lost 1-2 to Fluminense RJ and end their long unbeaten record, two key players received red cards. Up to seven important team members are absent, including Pedro Guilherme Abreu dos Santos, Giorgian De Arrascaeta Benedetti, and Everton Augusto de Barros Ribeiro who are on international duty.

 

Verdict:

Fortaleza may not be doing well, however, Flamengo's situation is unknown with so many of its players absent. Given that Fortaleza is playing at home, they have a high chance of points.

 

Pick: X

 

​International Friendly -- Saudi Arabia vs USA Game Preview

 

 

Analysis:

Tuesday's friendly match between Saudi Arabia and the USA at Spain's Estadio Nueva Condomina.

 

Saudi Arabia

Ecuador held The Green to a scoreless draw. Saudi Arabia scored 34 goals during their 2022 qualifying campaign, the fewest of the six Asian countries who qualified for Qatar. They may be having trouble scoring goals, but they have played solid defense for conceding one goal or fewer in 11 of their previous 12 games.

 

USA

The US suffered their first defeat in five games, falling to Japan 2-0. Many people are still unsure about who will start as the USA's number nine when their World Cup campaign gets off, given they have only been able to score one goal or less in three of their past four games. They had won their previous 34 out of their previous 39 games.

 

Prediction

The most recent games between opposing teams were dull. This is particularly true of Saudi Arabia, which have gone three games without scoring. In their recent meeting with Japan, the USA also have no objectives. There is a low likelihood that the future game will be a success.

 

 

Pick: Under 2.5 Goals

UEFA Nations League / England vs Germany

Analysis:

The two sides are preparing for Nations League action on Monday when England take on Germany.

 

England

England won’t want a repeat of their last result here after a 1-0 Nations League defeat in their last game at the hands of Italy. A common trait of recent England games is the high number of scores with a nil in them. Taking their previous six matches leading up to this one, in 5 of them a wager on "Both Teams to Score" would have lost. Such a trend won’t necessarily be sustained into this next game, though.

 

Germany

Germany have been a threat going forward in the lead-up to this encounter, scoring 9 goals in their previous 6 matches. Having said that, Germany have had their own issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same clashes.

 

Verdict:

We’re thinking that Germany may not find it easy to register a score against this England team who we think should get a goal themselves and run out victorious. That’s why our selection here is for a narrow 1-0 victory for England at the end of the 90 minutes.
