The weekend games begin again with an end to the first round of fixtures across all European fixtures. League football returns with most sides still battling for important finishes ahead of the end of the campaign. We have carefully curated the best options from the fixtures this week and we are certain of a near hit after today’s predictions.
Straight Wins.
PSG is chasing its record 11th title and they are the defending champions. Coach Christophe Galtier is almost certainly going to be ousted after the season and he is thinking about going out with the biggest trophy in France. The last time these teams met was on New Year’s Day when Lens won 3-1 and with that game, it seems that everything started to fall apart for PSG regarding their higher ambitions of winning multiple trophies. Looking at their last five games, Lens has more wins (2) with PSG winning only once and two games ending in a draw. Bet9ja have 1.68 odds, Paripesa have 1.70 odds and 1xBet have 1.70 odds.
With a victory this weekend, Spurs will attempt to increase the pressure on Man Utd and Newcastle, while Bournemouth will try to make it two straight-away victories after defeating Leicester City the last time out. In the rematch against Bournemouth in October of last year at Vitality Stadium, Tottenham won 2-3 after a stunning late comeback. In their last seven league encounters with the Cherries, Tottenham has prevailed five times. Tottenham has won all five of its recent home league games, despite playing teams like Manchester City, Chelsea, and Brighton. Tottenham is our pick to win. Bet9ja have 1.48 odds, Paripesa have 1.51 odds and 1xBet have 1.51 odds.
As the new manager of the Foxes, Dean Smith couldn’t have asked for a more difficult start. However, the former Aston Villa manager will be looking to spring a few surprises that aid his side pick up a victory. If Guardiola’s team wants to win the Premier League again, they simply need to keep winning and hope that Arsenal falters before the end of the season. Manchester City has prevailed over Leicester in five of their past seven meetings, including a 1-0 victory at the King Power Stadium in October. This weekend, we expect Guardiola’s team to maintain their defensive discipline. It’s possible to win here and keep going after the championship. Bet9ja have 1.16 odds, Paripesa have 1.17 odds and 1xBet have 1.17 odds.
The league’s defending champions, the Royal Whites, are currently ranked second in the standings. They are pursuing Barcelona, which dropped points in their most recent match and is currently in the first place. This is the time for Ancelotti’s team to score with ten games left. They have a strong head-to-head record against this adversary throughout the years, and they are confident after their Copa del Rey semifinal victories over Barcelona. They have a perfect winning record at this location in head-to-head matches, with just two draws. Real Madrid to Win is probably a respectable wager. Bet9ja have 1.56 odds, Paripesa have 1.60 odds and 1xBet have 1.60 odds.
Last Saturday, Sparta’s impressive run of play was capped off when they defeated AZ Alkmaar to inch closer to the top five in the Eredivisie. It is difficult to ignore the home team’s excellent recent run of performance. The hosts need to continue winning so they can finish the season among the top five teams. The lone loss Sparta has suffered in their last five games came against league-leading Feyenoord. Many people were shocked by Sparta’s climb to the top of the game in the Netherlands. Winning 14 games this season, or 50 percent of their total games, is praise for the entire group. Bet9ja have 2.30 odds, Paripesa have 2.33 odds and 1xBet have 2.33 odds.
Over 2.5
Augsburg has lost seven of their last nine away assignments ahead of their trip to play RB Leipzig on Saturday. Augsburg’s away assignments in the Bundesliga in 2022/23 have been a thrill-a-minute and incredibly, 80% of their last ten tests on the road have produced four or more goals. As we touched on earlier, six goals hit the net when our featured teams last met in October and our second RB Leipzig vs Augsburg prediction forecasts more entertainment on Saturday. Bet9ja have 1.44 odds, Paripesa have 1.44 odds and 1xBet have 1.44 odds.
RKC is vying for a spot in the playoffs for promotion to some of Europe’s competitions the next season, while Groningen is fighting tooth and nail to avoid relegation. The last five games in this tie, including the last two, have all finished with more than three goals scored. The defense of Groningen is in danger since they routinely give up goals. With RKC’s free-flowing style of play, the visiting team may run into additional difficulties. With 17 games played including three of their last five, Waalwijk is the fourth-best over 2.5 goals team in the league, while Groningen has played in 16 games. The host team has played two straight games that have gone over. Bet9ja have 1.72 odds, Paripesa have 1.77 odds and 1xBet have 1.77 odds.
Even a victory this weekend won’t be enough to move the Saints out of the bottom-dwelling Premier League position. As they move the Eagles closer and closer to safety, Roy Hodgson and Patrick McCarthy’s Crystal Palace team is attempting to make it three league victories in a row. We anticipate goals in this game because Southampton and Crystal Palace have combined for over 2.5 goals in four of their last five meetings. In two of Southampton’s most recent three games, as well as each of Palace’s most recent three league contests, at least three goals have been scored. Bet9ja have 2.20 odds, Paripesa have 2.30 odds and 1xBet have 2.30 odds.
After losing two straight games, Rennes is under pressure to avoid having a dismal season after initially playing well before injuries ruined the team’s fortunes. This seems like a sensible choice for a prediction in a tie between Rennes and Reims. They significantly exceeded the mark, scoring at least four goals in four of their previous five head-to-head games. Rennes prevailed 2-0 in the final contest that fell short of expectations. According to their season-long statistics, Rennes has played 18 games in which they scored three or more goals. Goals should result from Reims’ potential today to fight back. Bet9ja have 1.82 odds, Paripesa have 1.92 odds and 1xBet have 1.92 odds.
Last weekend, Dortmund beat Union Berlin 2-1 in a difficult test to bounce back from their dismal loss in the Der Klassiker. With their title challenge back on track, BVB appears prepared to pounce for more points at Stuttgart. With Sebastian Haller, Karim Adeyemi, and Youssoufa Moukoko all healthy and available once more, Dortmund’s attacking talent suddenly appears to be in abundance, and we predict the visitors will use their firepower to demonstrate their might at the Mercedes Benz Arena on Saturday. In each of their last four meetings with Stuttgart, Dortmund has scored at least twice, and they have the advantage to inflict more harm this weekend. Over 2.5 goals are strongly favored to win in this match. Bet9ja have 1.65 odds, Paripesa have 1.73 odds and 1xBet have 1.73 odds.
Anytime Goal scorers
Erling Haaland
In his first season with Man City, Haaland has dominated the Premier League. When he scored against Southampton the previous time out, the Norwegian striker brought his season total for league goals to 30. Despite having a new manager in charge, Leicester has recently been in terrible shape. We’re optimistic that this coming weekend will go well for Man City and that Haaland will score. Bet9ja have 1.38 odds while Paripesa have 1.40 odds.
Kolo Muani
Randal Kolo Muani, a French forward who is one of Europe’s most sought-after players. He displayed his skills in Frankfurt’s most recent home game against Union Berlin, scoring both goals as Die Adler won the cup 2-0. Kolo Muani has scored 12 goals in the Bundesliga this season as well. We believe the attacker will score once again against Borussia Monchengladbach on Saturday. Bet9ja have 2.35 odds while Paripesa have 2.30 odds.
Harry Kane
You wouldn’t bet against Tottenham’s captain spectacular. Who is having another spectacular season in front of goal, scoring against Bournemouth this weekend. He is England’s all-time leading scorer. Kane, who received criticism for aiding Everton’s Doucoure in receiving a red card at Goodison Park. Responded perfectly against Brighton by scoring the game-winning goal. Also demonstrating that he doesn’t give a damn what others think of him. He should score one or two goals here to give his team a crucial three points. Bet9ja have 1.75 odds while Paripesa have 1.60 odds.
Lionel Messi
Lionel Messi might become just the third player to score at least 15 goals and provide 15 assists in a Ligue 1 season since 2006/2007, despite hearing his name whistled at Parc des Princes. The Argentine forward would aim to continue his performance from last weekend and contribute to his team’s victory. This choice was wise because he not only scored but also assisted on the second goal. Bet9ja have 2.30 odds while Paripesa have 2.25 odds.
Eberechi Eze
In terms of goals and assists, the Eagles midfield star is having a fantastic season in front of goal. With 5 Premier League goals and 3 assists. Eze is the club’s second-leading scorer as Zaha looks likely to miss this weekend’s encounter. When Crystal Palace plays Southampton this weekend. We expect Eze, 24, to continue his strong play from his previous match against Leeds. Bet9ja have 5.75 odds while Paripesa have 5.50 odds.
Football Lover. All-round junkie of the beautiful game. Could be found watching football most of the time. If not he’s writing about them or making some punditry you don’t agree with. A certain bias for Arsenal and Santos FC.
