Spanish La Liga -- Getafe vs Valencia Prediction

 

 

Analysis:

Getafe and Valencia will meet at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez in the Matchday 22 in the Spanish La Liga.

 

Getafe

Getafe have been winless for the latest seven rounds in the La Liga, managing only two draws for a total of two points. Now they are ranking 19th on League table, only one point behind of the visiting team. However, in the last two rounds of the league, they drew Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano, with one goal for each.

 

Valencia

Valencia are also in poor forms lately, with getting only one point from their last seven League games. Moreover, they are not playing well away from home, with only one win but six defeats in the last ten away League matches this season. And they failed to score in the last three visits in this progress.

 

Prediction:

Getafe showed consistent attack since returning from the World Cup break, and they have picked up consecutive draws agaisnt the stronger teams. I belive they would extend their unbeaten run by this clash.

 

AH Pick: Getafe 0

English Premier League -- Aston Villa vs Arsenal Game Preview

 

Analysis:

Aston Villa will welcome Arsenal to Villa Park in the Matchday 24 of the English Premier League.

 

Aston Villa

Aston Villa have picked up five victories in the last nine games in the Premier League, lifting them into the 11th place in the table and a 10 point lead over the relegation zone. However, they have suffered back-to-back defeats lately, with a 3-1 away defeat to Manchester City adnd a 4-2 home loss to Leicester City.

 

Arsenal

Arsenal fell a 1-3 home defeat to the Manchester City, which has been their third defeat in the last four competitive matches. The bright thing is that Arsenal will be motivated from their away results, since they won eight of their 11 away trips with incredibly consistent attacking side.

 

Prediction:

Aston Villa is not a team easy to defeat for the Gunners. Both sides have consistent scoring forms in their recent matches, thus, I will back both teams to score here.

 

Pick: BTTS – YES

French Ligue 1 - Auxerre v Lyon (Tips)

 

 

Analysis:

French Ligue 1 - Auxerre v Lyon on 17/02/2023

 

Friday night a stand-alone Ligue 1 game in France should be an easy pick. Struggling Auxerre welcoming mid-table Lyon in search of a home win could face a lengthy wait! Lyon is still 6 points behind the European qualification position and needs to pick up more points if they want to feature in Europen football next season, great chance today at Auxerre!

 

Auxerre – they only had won just once in their last 10 competitive matches, that was a cup-away win and nothing really worth shouting about. Auxerre’s last league victory came from a 1-0 home win against fellow struggler Ajaccio back in November!

 

Lyon - their away records are not so strong, however, Lyon has a pretty much full-strength squad to face Auxerre. Alexandre Lacazette scored 14 goals this season and he is the 2nd join top league goal scorer who could guide Lyon for another 3 points here.

 

Odds Analysis

Asian Handicap opened strongly on Lyon at -0.5 with odds around 1.80, a lot lower in Asian bookies too. Most bookies in Asian upgraded their AH to -0.75 on Lyon!

 

Verdict:

Auxerre had full of injured players that prevented them to find goals, I doubt they can win here today. Pick Lyon!

 

First Choice: Away Win

 

Low Risk Option: Lyon - First Team To Score

 

UEFA Europa League -- Juventus vs Nantes Game Preview

 

 

Analysis:

Juventus will play host Nantes in the round of 16 playoffs, first leg in the Europa League.

 

Juventus

Juventus have been in impressive forms, winning all their last three matches with clean sheets. They failed to score in only one out of the last five matches played, but they’ve managed more than one goal in just three of their last nine matches. They are coming off a 1-0 home win over Fiorentina, which has been their straight second home win in all competitions.

 

Nantes

Nantes are also coming off three unbeaten matches, with one draw and two wins. They showed solid defenses, conceding more than a goal in just one out of their last ten matches. Also, they have been unbeatable for their last seven away games, with six clean sheets in this progress.

 

Prediction:

Juventus haven’t scoring lots of goals in recent matches, while Nantes haven't been scoring a lot either, and have solid defenses. All in all, my prediction for this match is under 2.5 goals.

 

O/U Pick: Under 2.5 goals

UEFA Europa League - FC Barcelona vs Manchester United Preview

 

 

Analysis:

The UEFA Europa League knockouts between FC Barcelona and Manchester United will be played at Camp Nou.

 

FC Barcelona

This year, they have yet to lose. Their defense is strong, allowing just 0.3 average goals per game over the last 10 games. Additioanlly, their most recent home defeat was from Bayern in the Champions League in the last year.

 

Manchester United

Man United might be without up to seven players on game day, which causes issues for Erik. This is the cause why they have not played well recently, drawing ties with Leeds and Palace and losing to Arsenal.

 

Verdict:

Barce have the upper hand in the first half of each of their last ten games. And they did so in their last two games against Man United, winning both with a clean sheet.

 

FC Barcelona is anticipated to win full time and take the lead in the first half.

 

Pick: 1

 

HT Result: 1

 

AH Pick: FC Barcelona -0.5

UEFA Champions League -- Borussia Dortmund vs Chelsea Game Preview

 

 

Analysis:

UEFA Champions League resumes and this clash will see Borussia Dortmund host Chelsea at Signal Iduna Park.

 

Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund finished 2nd on Group G, and they are coming off straight six competitive games lately. They manage to advance to the quarterfinals of the DFB Pokal as well as stay third on the Bundesliga table, three points behind top spot. They beat Werder Bremen 2-0 away from home at the weekend, which was their straight sixth game with scoring two or more goals.

 

Chelsea

Chelsea are the leader of Group E in this competition, but they found themselves dropping into the ninth on Premier League table and being eliminated from the FA Cup. Chelsea just won one out of their last eight matches played, however, the bright thing is that they kept unbeaten in the last four matches in the League, and have three clean sheets in this progress.

 

Prediction:

Chelsea comes from straight four wins on the Group of this competition, however, Borussia Dortmund are in top form lately even though they have a bad record against English teams in recent seasons. Therefore, my prediction is the home team to win or a draw.

 

1X2 Pick: 1X

 

Italian Serie A - Verona v Salernitana

 

Analysis:

Italian Serie A - Verona v Salernitana on 13/02/2023

 

Monday early evening, we have the Italian Serie A bottom half of the league battle between struggling Verona and Salernitana, this game expects high goals encounter!

 

Verona – the host is already 5 points behind Spezia which they are outside the relegation zone. Another home defeat could put them back on track to be relegated. Verona had only lost just once in their last 6 games in theory they should win at home!

 

Salernitana - the weakest in defense away from home in the league, their last 10 away games had failed to keep a clean sheet. No exception tonight at Verona, however, they will likely score at Verona to bring surprises.

 

Verdict:

 

Both teams are up for the win, I reckon we should expect high goals match result.

 

First Choice: Over 2.5 goals
