Italian Serie A-AS Roma VS Cagliari

 

Top-four contenders Roma tackle relegation-threatened Cagliari on Monday, when the two teams clash at Stadio Olimpico.

 

Back-to-back wins since Daniele De Rossi's arrival have helped the Giallorossi inch up the Serie A standings, while their visitors have recently slipped back into the drop zone.

 

Making an immediate impact upon his installation as Roma boss following Jose Mourinho's sacking, Daniele De Rossi led his new side to successive Serie A victories in January, to keep them in the hunt for Champions League qualification.

 

Given the combination of Roma's fine home record and Cagliari's woes on the road, only one outcome is likely in Serie A's Monday contest. The Giallorossi are rejuvenated under new management, so three more points should be theirs for the taking.

Liga Portugal 1-FC Porto VS Rio Ave

 

 

Team Analysis:

Porto ensured they remained within touching distance of league leaders Benfica as they cruised to a 3-1 win over Farense, having gone seven games in a row without defeat in all competitions, picking up one draw and six wins, including a 4-0 win over Estoril Praia in the fifth round of the Taca de Portugal on January 9.

 

Rio Ave have now failed to taste victory in three games in a row, picking up two points from a possible nine, and have won just one of their last nine games since mid-November.

With 17 points from their 19 Primeira Liga games, Vilacondenses currently sit 16th in the league standings, four points above bottom-placed Vizela and one point behind Estrela Amadora just above the dotted line.

 

odds analysis:

Porto will be at their best when they face a Rio Ave side who struggled to impose themselves on their journey. Both form and history are on their side, this weekend and back them to claim all three points unscathed.

 

Conclusion:

score prediction 2-0 3-0.

English Premier League-Manchester City VS Burnley

 

 

Team Analysis:

Manchester City are in scintillating form, with an impressive record in their last 10 matches in all competitions. Their offensive prowess, coupled with a solid defensive record, makes them the favorites. The potential return of Erling Haaland adds another dimension to their already strong attack.

 

Burnley's season has been less than satisfactory, they have shown resilience away from home. Their ability to beat the defending champions on the road provides a glimmer of hope. However, their weak defense and weak attack, combined with some key injuries, paint a scary picture heading into this match.

 

odds analysis:

Manchester City's win with a -2 handicap was based on their dominant style of play and the sizeable gap in class and form between them and Burnley. Guardiola's City, which is famous for its extraordinary and relentless attacking play, often beats its opponents, especially at the Etihad Stadium.

 

Conclusion:

predicted score 4-0.

Primera Division Liga MX-Queretaro FC VS Tigres UANL

 

 

Head to head

13 goals were scored between them throughout the course of those matches, with 1 for Gallos Blancos and 12 netted by Los Tigres. That’s an average goals per game of 2.17.

 

The previous league fixture between these clubs was Liga MX (Apertura) match day 7 on 03/09/2023 which finished with the scoreline of Tigres de la UANL 5-0 Querétaro FC.

We’re thinking that Querétaro FC will really need to work well to breach the defence of this Tigres de la UANL outfit who we think will likely get a goal themselves and run out victorious.

 

We’ve gone for a narrow 0-1 victory for Tigres de la UANL after 90 minutes.
