​Argentine Division 1 -- Boca Juniors vs Banfield Game Preview

 

 

Pick:1x2    Boca Juniors  @1.95

 

Analysis:

Following a rare loss a week ago, Boca Juniors must overcome Banfield at home on Friday in order to guarantee their place among the top three teams.

 

Boca Juniors

Last Friday, Boca were beaten by Club Atlético Unión 2-1 after they gave up two penalties to Union. Boca Juniors have been undefeated at home for 12 straight games before last week, when they lost their second match of this campaign. With that loss, they fell three points behind Racing in the overall standings.

 

Banfield

Banfield made 1-1 statement with Barracas Central last time out. They have not displayed much strength in their five games this round, but they have often performed well enough to collect points, losing only one of their previous eight domestic competition games.

 

Prediction

Several of Boca Juniors' backup players are more than capable of defeating a team that shouldn't pose a significant threat to them in the offensive third, and they have enough talent to secure a victory on Friday.

​USA Major League Soccer -- Los Angeles Galaxy vs Minnesota United FC Game Preview

 

Pick:AH   Minnesota United FC (+0.5/+1)  @1.88

 

Analysis:

When Los Angeles Galaxy play Minnesota United in an MLS match on Wednesday, they'll be looking to recover from their US Open Cup loss to Sacramento Republic.

 

Los Angeles Galaxy

Los Angeles Galaxy enter Wednesday's match in a negative frame of mind despite having won their last two MLS games by a combined score of four points. After accruing 24 points from their 15 MLS matches, they are presently sixth in the Western Conference. The team has only won one of their previous five MLS games.

 

Minnesota United FC

Minnesota enter the midweek game coming off of four straight losses across all competitions, with just one win in their previous eight MLS games. They will now travel for a third straight game and try to turn around a recent run of results that has seen them drop five of their past six MLS games.

 

Prediction

Even though Minnesota are presently having trouble scoring points, they have performed well against Wednesday's opponents in prior matches. I believe they will maintain their unbeaten streak by keeping their opponents to a draw after avoiding defeat in their last three games against La Galaxy.

Copa Libertadores -- Talleres Cordoba vs Colon de Santa Fe Game Preview

 

 

Pick:AH   Talleres Cordoba (0/-0.5)  @1.90

 

Analysis:

On Wednesday night, Talleres will receive Colon at Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes as the two teams compete to proceed to the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals.

 

Talleres Cordoba

Talleres advanced to the last-16 after placing second in Group H. However, their new league season has gotten off to a rough start with only four points from five games, dropping them to 24th place in the standings. They have won four of their previous seven games when playing at home and had gone undefeated in seven of their previous ten games overall.

 

Colon de Santa Fe

Colon finished first in Group G with 10 points from their six games - two points clear of Cerro Porteno. Colon have struggled thus far in the 2022 league season, earning just five points from five games and now occupying the 20th spot in the league table. They have dropped their past three games across all competitions.

 

Prediction

Given the similarity in quality between these two teams, I anticipate both legs of the round of 16 match to be tight. If a draw were proposed on Wednesday prior to kickoff, both managers would probably accept it.

Chinese Super League - Guangzhou City vs Dalian Pro Betting Tips

 

 

Pick:1x2   Dalian Pro  @1.91

 

Analysis:

Guangzhou City and Dalian Pro will go head to head on Tuesday’s Chinese Super League.

 

Guangzhou City

The investment of the team has not been as good as before, and the two Guangzhou teams ranked at the bottom together in this season. At present, with tiring offenses, the team has only 2 goals after 6 rounds. Also, their defensive sides are riddled with mistakes, with conceding around 3 goals in average.

 

Dalian Pro

Dalian Pro have been in unsteady forms in these years. In this season, they is in the 14th position with 1 win, 3 draws and 2 losses, only 3 points ahead of the relegation zone. Without any foreign aids, the team play with all homeground players. Fortunately, their performances on offensive sides are better than their rival’s, and their defenses also did well.

 

Verdict:

Dalian Pro runs in a better form than their rival and the odds are also in favor of them. So Dalian Pro will be expected higher in this round.

Swedish Allsvenskan - Malmo FF vs Helsingborg Preview

 

Pick:1x2   Malmo FF  @1.29

 

Analysis:

Malmo FF and Helsingborg will fight for Swedish Allsvenskan roiund round 11 on Monday.

 

Malmo FF

Reigning champions Malmo have suffered something of a dry patch of late, recently recording three straight top-flight defeats for the first time in over four years but remarkably bouncing back with a deserved 2-0 victory last time out.

 

Helsingborg

The visitors were relegated in the 2020 season. While an immediate top-flight return was welcomed, Helsingborg have had a stark reality check as they look highly likely to face the drop even with almost two thirds of the campaign left to play.

 

Verdict:

The main selection won in three of the last five H2H meetings in Malmo. Helsingborg are yet to win away and conceded at least twice in four of their five league away trips. We expect that home team are going to win in the coming match.

J-League Division 1 - Yokohama Marinos vs Kashiwa Reysol Betting Tips

 

 

Pick:AH   Yokohama Marinos (-0.5/-1)  @1.83

 

Analysis:

Yokohama Marinos and Kashiwa Reysol will meet on Saturday’s J-League Division 1.

 

Yokohama Marinos

Yokohama Marinos are in steady forms in this season. They have got 4 consecutive wins after beating Gamba Osaka with 2:1 in last away game, climbing in to the top of the League table. Their home form is the best on League, since they have 6 wins and 2 draws in last 8 home League matches.

 

Kashiwa Reysol

Kashiwa Reysol are only 4 points behind of Yokohama Marinos, ranking 4th on League table. But their last 4 victories were not against the strong teams, but their away forms are nice, for they only lost 2 out of their last 8 away games.

 

Verdict:

Neither could take the upper hand in past h2h games, but the odds of this game is Yokohama Marinos-0.5/1, which is good for the host. So Yokohama Marinos will have no problem winning this game.

Argentine Division 1 / Banfield vs Barracas Central Preview

 

Pick:AH   Barracas Central (+0.5/+1)  @1.90

 

Analysis:

The Superliga game at Estadio Florencio Sola on Friday sees home team Banfield playing against Barracas Central.

 

Banfield

Banfield are hoping to win again after their last result, the 0-1 Superliga triumph over Tigre. Claudio Vivas's Banfield have hit the back of the net a sum total of 6 times in their last 6 outings. At the other end, the tally of goals that they have conceded in those fixtures is 5.

 

Barracas Central

After suffering a loss in their previous game against Boca Juniors in Superliga action, Barracas Central and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one. The stats tell the story, and Barracas Central have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, letting opponents get 10 goals overall. In defence, Barracas Central have clearly had some problems.

 

Verdict:

Banfield's home record is terrible. The 1X2 odds is 1.73-3.60-5.00, which means support the home team. Banfield should take points in this game.
