Sonderjyske vs Silkeborg

Sonderjyske didn’t manage to get the victory at home over Esbjerg in the previous round two weeks ago even though they were favorites to claim all three points. However, they were better during the game and looked like scoring, but stood behind in the scoreline in 64th minute with a goal from Paulsen. From the moment they got behind in the scoreline, the team looked way better and found equalizer three minutes later thanks to Uhre, continuing to attack, but without changing the scoreline even though they were better than the opponents.

Their start of the season is quite tragic for now, since the team still aims for their first victory of the season, having four draws and three defeats for now. Logically, they are in the relegation zone, being two points above today’s opponents, above rock bottom placed side. Victory is their only target today and anything but the three pointer would be another huge blow for their targets this season.

Their manager Mikkelsen is having no injury nor suspension worry ahead of this match and will be able to send his best starting eleven in a game where they need to win so badly.


Silkeborg had a decent performance two weeks ago when the team visited Randers, but still stood defeated with a narrow 1:0 result. They looked passive during the first halftime and conceded a goal in 36th minute via Kallesoe, trying to react later on, but with obvious limited quality in attack, even though they had some chances.

After first seven rounds, it’s obvious that Silkeborg is one of the worst teams in the league, having suffered five defeats and managing to get only two draws in that time. They are at the bottom of the table and also aiming a positive result today, since the team needs to do something here in order to hope for more brighter future. They improved their morale a bit with a 9:0 victory over amateur side Aabyhoj few days after their defeat against Randers.

Their coach Sorensen won’t be able to count at first choice goalkeeper Thomas Norgaard (5/0), as well as striker Jeppe Okkels (2/0), both out due injury.

    Silkeborg have failed to win their last 19 matches (Superliga).

Sonderjyske didn’t start the season in a good way, but there’s no doubt for me that the team has much more quality than their visitors. They need just to click a bit better here and the team will be able to get convincing victory, easier than the bookies predict.
Bet: Sonderjyske -1 Asian handicap @ 2.20

Anderlecht vs Charleroi

Anderlecht didn’t manage to get the victory last time out, even though they had the lead twice during the match and all the way till second minute of additional time at home against Gent. However, even though they were unlucky to concede the goal so late, it must be said that their opponents were superior during the match and fully deserved the equalizer.

They took the lead from the penalty kick taken by Tielemans in 19th, but Simon leveled up the scoreline just two minutes later, while Teodorczyk brought them back to lead in second minute of second halftime, just to see his team staying without two points with a goal from Asare. With two victories and three draws, they are now only seventh, four points below leading Waregem. The team made big signings in last days of the transfer window, but the players will be introduced slowly to the first team for sure.

Home side continue to miss left full back Obradovic who didn’t play in the season yet, as well as defender Appiah (3/0), midfielders Najar (no performance also) and Dendoncker (5/0), but also forward Kawaya (no playing minute in the season also). They should be playing in 4-2-3-1 formation this time out, with Teodorczyk (4/3) at the top of attack.


Charleroi showed two faces against Eupen at home two weeks before, as the team took comfortably 3:0 lead within first thirty-five minutes (goals from Willems and two from Pollet), but then paid the price of being to passive in the match and got reduced to 3:2 in 45th with an own goal and in the first minute of the second halftime with a goal from Onyekuru.

Eupen continued pushing for the equalizer, but fortunately for Charleroi it never came. Players of Charleroi are experiencing a great start in the new season, since the team has three victories and two draws, as they were leaders of the table after the previous round has ended. It surely gives them some morale boost, but the team is far away from something impressive in the season.

Charleroi will be playing here without goalkeeper Baume (0/0), defenders Poulain (0/0) and Marinos (0/0), but also midfielder Saglik (4/0) and forward Stevance (0/0). They should be playing in 4-2-3-1 formation with Pollet as central striker for the visiting team.

Visiting side did well so far in the season, but I expect the things to go south for them starting from this match. Anderlecht is much more quality side looking at individuals and after international break and more time for the players to get to know each other, I expect them to start playing more as a team and start climbing up the table.

Liverpool vs Leicester City

Liverpool started their Premier League campaign with an impressive 4-3 away victory over Arsenal at the Emirates. When everyone thought this is going to be a productive season for the Reds, they were seen out of sorts against the newly promoted Burnley and ended up losing 2-0. And just before the international break, they went to Tottenham and returned with the share of the spoils after earning a hard fought 1-1. If one has to summarize Liverpool’s performance in the opening three weeks of the new season, it must be ‘inconsistent’.
While Leicester City were dealt a huge blow in the opening day of the season as they lost 2-1 to the newly promoted Hull City, who had all sorts of problems on and off the field. In the subsequent week, they drew blank with Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal. They finally got their first win of the season at the expense of Swansea City. Claudio Ranieri’s hardly look like the team that won the 2015/16 Premier League title. Also a similar feat like last season is least expected from them. But they need to start getting out in the field without the burden of expectation.

Liverpool vs Leicester City: Head-to-Head

Liverpool were one of the two teams that defeated Leicester City in the 2015/16 Premier League season, with the other side being Arsenal. Liverpool won at home by a 1-0 margin, but they lost the match at Leicester 2-0.
Liverpool will go into this match on the back of a five match unbeaten run against Leicester at Anfield, with 4 wins and a draw.

Liverpool vs Leicester City: Prediction

Both teams are coming into the match in a similar form are stay close in the Premier League standings with 4 points from the three matches. They will be keen to get a win here and judging by the performances in the opening weeks, this match could go either way. I will avoid betting on a winner here, I rather look at the goal markets.
Liverpool have plenty of problems at the back and failed to keep clean sheet in each of their three matches this season. While Leicester have also given plenty of easy chances in each of their matches. So looking at their attacking strength, this match could produce over 2.5 goals.

Liverpool vs Leicester City: Betting Tips

Both Teams to Score at 4/5 (1.80)
Over 2.5 goals at 8/11 (1.73).

PSG vs St Etienne

Is PSG coach Unai Emery already under pressure? The champions have lost already in Ligue 1 when they went down 3-1 against Monaco in their last game. They also have an interesting Champions League match against Arsenal next week which follows this match. But for now all eyes will be on PSG and how they can bounce back. They have of course lost David Luiz to Chelsea but Emery was set in his mind before the transfer that Luiz was not going to be part of PSG’s future plans anyway. Before the disaster at Monaco the club had kept clean sheets in their two opening games and the focus here will be to put in a professional job.
St Etienne have won 1 drawn 1 and lost 1 since the beginning of the season. The good news is that they have gone the last two games unbeaten although their last match was seen as a disappointment as they drew 0-0 with Toulouse at home.

PSG v St Etienne Head to Head

The recent head to head does not make easy reading for the away team where they have lost to PSG in the last five games. PSG have scored 9 goals in their last two home fixtures against Etienne conceding just a single goal. From the last ten fixtures there is a 50/50 chance of over 2.5 goals. From the last six fixtures PSG have only failed once to score at least 2 goals in this match.

PSG v St Etienne: Prediction

PSG have never been a great team when they have had a Champions League match looming just days after a league one. But they have significantly improved their mental strength through the years and they should be able to win this match. That doesn’t mean it will be with a big margin though. Etienne has proven that they are no pushovers and will have chances and possession at times, but PSG will just be too strong and should round up all three points with a professional if unspectacular victory.

PSG v St Etienne: Betting Tips

PSG to score at least 2 goals at 4/11 (1.36)
Jese to score anytime for PSG at 7/5.

Croatia vs Turkey

Croatia will host Turkey on 5th September 2016, as World Cup qualifiers game for Russia 2018 begins.

Croatia had a good outing in the summer European Championship, they were unbeaten in the group stages. They finished top of their group with 7 points, winning 2 of the group stage games which includes a 1-0 win against Turkey. They were unfortunate to lose to Portugal in the 2nd round. Quaresma’s extra time goal was enough to kick Croatia out of the competition. They now hope to produce a good performance at home to start this campaign with a win.

Turkey left the European championship early, after losing two games in the groups stages which include a 1-0 loss to Croatia. They also lost 3-0 to Spain, before winning their final game against Czech. Their last game was a goalless draw against Turkey on Wednesday. Turkey will be hoping for a revenge on the Croatians, as they contributed to their early exit in the summer championship.
Croatia vs Turkey: Head to Head

    Croatia are the better side when comparing the Head to Head stats, they have won 3 games and lost just once to Turkey.
    Turkey’s only win against Croatia have come on Croatian soil, which is the only win between the two teams on Croatian soil.
    Croatia’s 3 victories over Turkey have all been on Turkish home ground.
    Croatia have scored 9 goals against Turkey and conceded 4.

Croatia vs Turkey: Prediction

Croatia’s recent record have been good, they have won 3 of their last 5 games which includes a 10-0 Thrashing against San Marino. They lost 1 and drawn 1.

Turkey are not bad in performance, despite leaving the Euro Championship early, they are unbeaten in their last 2 games. Also they have kept clean sheets in in their last 2 games.

Both teams to score at 6/5 (2.20)
Over 2.5 goals at 6/5 (2.20).

Real Madrid vs Celta

Real has started their season in a perfect manner, since the team already won the European Super Cup finale against Sevilla, without performing that well during the match since they have won the match only after having a man more on the field and after extra-time player. Two weeks later, LaLiga has started for them and the team showed much more determined performance in a 3:0 away victory against Real Sociedad.

They showed full dominance for all ninety minutes on the field, since the team took the lead already in second minute via Bale, while Asension doubled up the lead in 40th minute. They lowered down the pace of the game in the second halftime, but still managed to score once more – again via Bale in fourth minute of additional time. Their aim is of course to win LaLiga title and anything but an easy victory here would be worrying result for their side.

Real should be playing in offensive 4-3-3 formation with Morata as central striker and Asensio and Bale next to him. Pepe is now close to the full fitness as central back position, but Raphael Varane could be preferred. Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema are still out injured, as well as goalkeeper Keylor Navas and defender Fabio Coentrao, but midfielder Luka Modric is set to start after serving his suspension. Marco Asensio should also start after scoring a goal last weekend.


Celta, on the other side, comes from quite shocking result in the season opening game, as the team suffered narrow 1:0 defeat at home against newly promoted Leganes. Players from Vigo had more of the ball possession during the whole game, but created very little number of real chances in front of opponentes goal. They tried with a lot of passes, but it’s obvious that the team will need a lot more time in order to start playing together well.

Visiting side patiently waited for counter attacks and that tactics paid off for them, when the team scored the only goal in 75th minute via Diaz, while the hosts were especially unable to react from that point on. Even though Celta had some promising results during the pre-season, what the team showed in the first round is far away from the battle for European positions and will surely need to improve a lot in order to have a positive season.

Celta Vigo is set to play in 4-2-3-1 formation with Aspas as number nine and Sisto, Orellana and Bongonda as offensive midfielders. Offensive Iago Aspas should be fit to start here, despite suffering an injury during the midweek. Pablo Hernandez could be on the bench this time, while injured remain forward Claudio Beauvue and goalkeeper Ruben Blanco. Gustavo Cabral is likely to start the game at the expense of Sergi Gomez.

    Real Madrid have scored at least 3 goals in 12 of their last 13 home matches (La Liga).
    Real Madrid have scored at least 3 goals in their last 4 matches against Celta Vigo.

Home side started the season in the best possible way and their key offensive players seem to be in the right form. Bale has scored twice, Asensio seems to be in fine form as well, while the players of Celta didn’t impress in the first round and this one should only be much more difficult for them. I have no doubts that Real will be able to get a two goals margin victory at least.
Bet: Real Madrid -2 Asian handicap @ 1.96

Burton Albion vs Derby County

Burton Albion vs Derby County
Championship action for me in a game that will see Championship new boys Burton Albion host promotion hopefuls Derby County. The game will be played at Pirelli Stadium, Burton and will kick off at 19:45 (UK Time).

The hosts head into the Friday night game on the back of a 5-0 drubbing at home against Liverpool in the cup. I know that Liverpool played a strong team, however, I would have expected Burton to put up more of a fight! Their league form hasn’t been too bad considering that they are new to the league and it wasn’t too long ago that they were in League two!! Since Jimmy Floyd-Hasslebaink left Burton for QPR I thought they would struggle. They still seem to attack very well, however, their defending isn’t great.

Burton have currently got 4 points from 4 games, 1 win and 1 draw. The win came as a surprise as they beat Sheffield Wednesday 3-1. This was very frustrating for me as I had a £1 bet on a 9-fold and only Sheffield Wednesday let me down for over £4,500!! Their defeats have all seen plenty of goals so I would expect there to be goals, however, their opponents Derby have looked solid in defence. Derby currently sit on 5 points and sit very low in the league considering the quality of players they have available!


Derby head into the game with a win, 2 draws and a loss. What strikes me is the fact that their 4 games have seen just 3 goals in total! 2 x 0-0 draws included vs Brighton and Villa.

I think a win for Derby now will kick start their season and set them on a great run, I expect that Derby will head into this game knowing that a win is very possible! Derby also played this week in the cup and managed to progress on penalties vs Carlisle, not a great result, however, they managed to get through and that’s the main thing.

I’ll be backing a Derby win in this game as I think they will finally come good. I think a price of 2.20 with Marathonbet is a huge price considering the difference in quality. I just hope Derby turn up :) Good luck all.
Bet: Derby win @2.22

Maribor vs Gabala

Qabala leading 3-1 after the 1st match. Maribor took the lead but deserved to lose and clearly were 2nd best.


Maribor struggle for goals these days, they actually lost their last 3 games including a 0-2 at the weekend vs a weak Slovenian team.


Maribor really don't have much threat in attack which is a big problem when they need to score at least 2 goals here. Veteran striker Tabaras is their best bet but he has seen better days. They have only scored 1 goal in any european game this season.


Maribor won 1-0 and drew 0-0 in their two home ties this season, both teams they faced weaker than Qabala. Azeri teams are getting stronger each year. Qabala already knocked out French team Lille and last year eliminated Panathnikos, I see a really tough game for Maribor where they cant stop Qabala from scoring.

Pick     Qabala +0.5AH Odds 1.84     Stake 8

Podbeskidzie vs Chojniczanka

			Podbeskidzie got relegated last term from Ekstraklasa, after spending several years in Polish top flight. Their main objective for this season is to win promotion. They started well, with 10 points in 4 games. Podbeskidzie have conceded just 1 goal so far, but that's misleading because their defence isn't so good, even in the recent match against Chrobry (2:0) they lallowed their opponents to create many goalscoring opportunities. Chojniczanka are one of the better teams in this league and they're playing offensive football. In total, there were 17 goals scored in their 4 league matches. In my opinion this could be an open game with a couple of goals. Both Podbeskidzie and Chojniczanka have offensive-minded coaches and I think that both sides will be aiming for a win. Pick     over 2.50 goals Odds 2.04    Stake 8

Roma vs Porto

Roma took a draw from the first leg of play-off Champions League qualifying round played away to Porto and now the Italians are quite big favorites to progress further to the group stage. Maybe even more positive than their draw, was behaviour of the players during the game, since they weren’t outplayed, even though the Italians were playing with a man less since 41st minute when defender Vermaelen had to leave the field due second yellow card.

Italians took the lead in 21st minute with an own goal from Monteiro, which proved to be enough for them to get a positive result, but the Portuguese side was more dominant on the field once they had a player more, still without managing to completely turnover the result, only getting a draw thanks to a goal from Silva from a penalty spot in 61st minute. Italians were mostly defending towards the end, getting the result which they wanted in the end. As for the domestic league, they started with a victory over Udinese 4:0 at home and made a strong bid into the new season.

However, goals were scored only in last twenty-five minutes of the game, once the Romans upped the tempo scoring goals via Perotti (two from penalties), Dzeko and Salah in last ten minutes of the match. Home side won’t be able to count at defender Vermaelen (1/0) now who got the red card in the first leg and serves suspension here. Defenders Rudiger and full back Torosidis anyway didn’t play in the new season and remain injured, as well as midfielder Florenzi.


Porto did what they could in the first leg and were close to maybe score the second goal and get more positive outcome, however it seems that the team isn’t in their best offensive shape and that they’ll struggle to get through to the opponents defense in the second leg. Despite playing for more than fourty-five minutes with a player less, they could only level up the result from a penalty spot via Silva in 61st minute.

Even though they had more of play in second halftime, the team never scored the second one. As for the domestic league, they come from two consecutive victories at start, last one being on Saturday evening at home against Estoril with a narrow 1:0 result. Only goal was scored very late in the game, despite ball possession and superiority of the home side, in 84th minute again via Silva. No doubt that the team wants to progress further here, but in order to do so, they’ll have to employ a bit more defensive approach in comparison to what we used to see from them.

Visiting side won’t be able to count at midfielder Brahimi who didn’t play this season, but also at forwards Depoitre and Aboubakar who was their top scorer in the previous season.

    There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Porto’s last 3 games (UEFA Champions League).

Roma had their possession and chances while playing with eleven players, also had the lead as well. Now, again equal in number and with the help of their fans, I definitely see the home team getting a victory here after morale boosting finish against Udinese few days ago. I simply see the home team having way more options in attack.
Bet: Roma Wins @ 1.73

Millwall vs Sheffield Utd

Millwall boss Neil Harris will be looking for an instant and positive reaction from his players after they suffered a battering 5-1 loss to free scoring Peterborough on Tuesday night. The loss was Millwall's first defeat of the season and Harris was critical of his players after the defeat. This was the second season in a row they have conceded five goals at ABAX Stadium so London Road isn't a place Millwall enjoy visiting. Despite the heavy defeat I have no quals about backing The Lions for a home win because prior to the blip at Peterborough in midweek, Millwall had won two and drawn the other match of their opening three fixtures this season and scored nine goals in the process.


The same cannot be said about Saturday's opponents Sheffield United who have yet to record a victory this season, and have not won a competitive League or Cup match in seven games. A most recent 0-3 home humiliation was the latest shock at Bramall Lane. United were 0-3 down at half time so confidence won't be at its highest this weekend.


Neil Harris will check on the fitness of a number of players before the League One clash with Sheffield United this weekend. Shaun Williams missed the 5-1 defeat at Peterborough on Tuesday night after receiving a blow to the head in the 2-2 draw at MK Dons at the weekend. David Worrall was left on the bench at ABAX Stadium as he had a tight hamstring. Shaun Hutchinson also looked like he suffered a reoccurrence of his hamstring injury minutes entering the fray to make his competitive debut.


Chris Wilder has threatened to wield the axe ahead of this weekend’s visit to Millwall. Wilder has signed eight new players since taking charge of United in May but has yet to see anything positive from a side tipped as favourites for the league 1 title. New signing, Simon Moore is expected to go straight into the team in goal after signing yesterday. Many of The Blades players have called for my passion and desire over the technical aspect of the game which tells me they have mental issues in coping with this division. With mental frailties clearly evident, The Den is the last place a side wants to be going to so I have grave concerns for a Sheffield United side struggling for form.


Harris' charges, who have won two of the their last three matches against Wilder's United. I expect the London side to record a home win over a side over rated and struggling to come to terms with being a scalp for most sides in the division.

Le Havre - Troyes


This could be shock of the round when promotion contender LeHavre is hosting relegated from Ligue 1 Troyes. So far, even they won 7 points after 3 games, LeHavre shown a lot of weakness and seem not to be at their full potential. After luckily won against Laval, with Farnolle keeping alive LeHavre in second half, against GFC Ajaccio, LeHavre had little inspiration moments. After a start of the game dominated by GFC Ajaccio they had a lethal counter, Gimbert receiving a good ball and converted in goal easily. A defensive placement error by GFC Ajaccio was easily speculated by experimented LeHavre players. Weren’t too many phases to both goals and the game seemed to end to another 1-0 win for LeHavre. But with 20 mins to go Ayasse had an unfortunate large taking of the ball while Court steal it and gave a nice assist to Tshimbubu who leveled 1-1. Was a fair draw till the end, between two top teams from Ligue 2.


Finally, Troyes came to life after their first win of the season 1-0 over Laval. As I expected Laval came at Troyes to steal a point, fielding a defensive team – nothing new. But Troyes made a very good first half and succeeded to take first win thanks to a goal scored after 20 minutes of play by captain Nivet. Troyes’ talisman Nivet (almost 40 years) made an excellent game, scoring the goal (a header after a left side cross of Dingome) and giving a lot of finest passes to their fellows. After the break Troyes seemed to tired and Laval took the control of the game. But without any luck despite they’ve created a lot of opportunities to score. Troyes replied through some counterattacks but any of team weren’t able to modify once again the table. Remained 1-0 for Troyes and maybe the real start of the season for Troyes? Let’s hope.


At a first glance this look as 1. But I am not convinced yet about LeHavre. I remember in previous season they had problems against top team. And don’t let fooled about bad start of the season Troyes had; I am pretty sure, soon they will be a team who will climb in the table and why not will be involved in promotion race. So I wonder 1.5 for a home win? Don’t think so. So Troyes +0.25 @3.20 with unibet is ok for me. For the brave ones Troyes straight win @ 8.24 with Pinnacle. gl

Fluminense RJ vs Corinthians SP

VS

Fluminense come into this one without a win in 3. It must be said that they avoided defeat in each of those but for certain, Its about time they find their scoring boots and winning mindset or they face battle of the drop as the season runs in. They are 11th as it is, scoring just 6 and conceding 6 in 7 games played with their two wins being against Newly promoted sides in America MG n Botafogo all by 1-0 scoreline. Their last game was a 1-1 draw with Gremio and they would to at least get another point here too.


Corinthians lost out in the derby with Palmerias being their last game by a 1-0 scoreline. They game was evenly contested and quite a few number of clear cut chances n a handful of half chance. In all, Palmerias made their home advantage count by winning 1-0 via substitute Xavier Cleiton who came in few minutes before scoring the goal in the 48th minute. That ended the visitors' run of 4 straight wins and today, I expect them to get back to winning ways as they ve surrendered top spot to Inter and come into this game on 4th; 3 points behind Inter.


Corinthians hardly play for the draws so If they gain an first half lead in this game, then they would cover this handicap but In all, I think they would get back their title push on track here with a win. A win by at least a couple of goals my pred. GL!

Atalanta vs Empoli

Atalanta vs Empoli


Atalanta are in a tough period at the moment with no wins in their last 8 matches, last round they became the first team to lose against Hellas Verona in a 2-1 defeat.


Atalanta are always a team who play better at home but lately they're struggling with 0 wins in their last 4 in Bergamo, they have 5 home wins this season. But looking closer at who they have beaten: Frosinone (19th), Sampdoria (17th), Carpi (18th), Lazio (9th) and Palermo (16th). Only 1 team outside the bottom 6. Their record at home to top 10 teams is 1-2-2.


Empoli are playing really nice football again this season, even better than last year, They're currently 8th, they've lost only 2 of their last 11 matches. Defeats vs leaders Napoli and 4th placed Inter in that run.


Like Atalanta struggle at home vs better teams Empoli have a very decent record away to the bottom half teams: 4-2-1 currently.


Atalanta are missing a few first team players in Drame, Carmona, Paletta, Bellini and Cigarini. While Empoli are without Costa, Croce and Piu. Overall I think Empoli will get at least a draw out of this game so I'm taking them on the +0.25AH line.

Bournemouth vs Arsenal

Bournemouth vs Arsenal


Arsenal will be looking to turn around their fortunes that have been struggling in the Premier League taking 3 points from a possible 12; with them not scoring in any of their last 3 games. With the return of Alexis Sanchez and Walcott on the wings, the team should be in a good state now to give this good pace to Giroud and Ozil to find players to attack the goal. Wind the clock back to earlier in the season against Manchester United when Ozil, Walcott and Sanchez destroyed Man Utd with 3 goals in 19 minutes; they did so with the pace and creativity of those 3; which is something they need to bring back. They conceded one goal due to the red card against Chelsea, but have been good defensively otherwise.


Bournemouth had made a good transfer in the winter window signing Benik Afobe who has now scored in each of his last 3 games, and has helped Bournemouth win 2 out of those 3 games. Defensively Bournemouth still have a lot to improve as they have conceded in each of their last 3 games, which might give Arsenal all the confidence they need to go and get a goal. Those string of wins got Bournemouth out of the jailhouse and into 15th spot, 7 points ahead of safety, showcasing their good performances. Bournemouth have put on better performance at home rather than away, grabbing 8 out of their last 15 points at home.


Arsenal will be extremely motivated to put on a victory as it has gotten out of the race from 3rd spot and also the title, and slipped them all the way to 4th position. A victory is required before they play 3 challenging games in Leicester, Barcelona and Manchester United; so I expect them to turn around their fortunes and put out a solid victory. Grab this price earlier before it goes away.
