The
Straight Wins
With four wins in the last six games, Barcelona are finishing the season on a positive note and they already secured a spot in the Champions League for next season since they will finish second in La Liga. That is good, considering the poor start that the team had. However, the fans can hardly be happy with the season overall since the Blaugrana failed to win any trophies this season. Meanwhile, Villarreal have a chance to secure a spot in Europa Conference League with a win here, but we are not exactly sure whether the team is so eager to play in this competition next season. In any case, we can see the Catalans winning the game. Bet9ja have 2.14 odds, Paripesa have 2.19 odds and 1xBet have 2.19 odds.
Neither Leicester nor Southampton have much to play for on the last day of the season but a win for the hosts could take them above Wolves, while Southampton will be hoping to better Everton’s result to secure 15th place in the Premier League. The Foxes have won three of their last six meetings with the Saints in all competitions, and we’re backing the home side to win once again on Sunday. Leicester have picked up two wins and a draw from their last three matches while Southampton have lost five of their last seven outings in the Premier League. Bet9ja have 1.86 odds, Paripesa have 1.89 odds and 1xBet have 1.89 odds.
Chelsea might have secured 3rd spot in the Premier League but Tuchel’s men will want to go out on a high at home to relegate Watford and we believe the Blues could be set for a big win on Sunday 22nd May. Watford simply haven’t been good enough this season and made the short trip to Stamford Bridge without several players and yet another defeat is likely. Chelsea have won each of their last five head-to-heads with Watford in the Premier League, with this much history behind both clubs we see Chelsea comfortably taking away all three points. Bet9ja have 1.19 odds, Paripesa have 1.20 odds and 1xBet have 1.20 odds.
Burnley’s Premier League status hangs in the balance ahead of the season’s final game as they are level on points with Leeds United, but do have a better goal difference. Newcastle United provides the opposition at Turf Moor and could still finish in the top 10 if they secure a win this weekend. Burnley will be determined to secure maximum points against Newcastle this Sunday to ensure they finish above Leeds. Mike Jackson’s men have looked strong at home, winning three of their last four games at Turf Moor, while Newcastle lost their last away game against Man City 5-0. The motivation for the points certainly favors a Burnley win but we are still expecting a close and competitive 90-minutes between the pair. Bet9ja have 2.27 odds, Paripesa have 2.28 odds and 1xBet have 2.28 odds.
The Serie A title is due to be decided on the final day of the season, 22nd May, and all Inter Milan can do is win their match at home to Sampdoria and hope that AC Milan fails to win away at Sassuolo or the title will be heading to their local rivals. Inter Milan have won five of their last seven league meetings with Sampdoria, with today’s fixture being a very vital one. Inter are the clear form favorites with six wins from their last seven matches in all competitions. Bet9ja have 1.13 odds, Paripesa have 1.15 odds and 1xBet have 1.15 odds.
Over 2.5 Goals
The title race for the 2021/22 Premier League campaign has gone down to the season’s final game, and either Man City or Liverpool will be crowned the champions on the 22nd of May. Guardiola’s men have a 1pt lead and play host to mid-table side Aston Villa who, as we all know, is managed by Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, which should make things interesting. The city has a great recent record against Aston Villa as mentioned above and two of their last seven wins against the Midlanders have produced over 2.5 goals. At least four goals have been scored in each of Man City’s last six outings in all competitions and Villa’s last away games also produced over 2.5 goals, adding further weight to our prediction for at least four goals to be scored this weekend. Bet9ja have 1.41 odds, Paripesa have 1.42 odds and 1xBet have 1.42 odds.
Crystal Palace could still move up three places and finish in the top 10 if they win on Sunday 22nd May and results elsewhere go in their favor. Manchester Utd is hoping to secure the 6th spot in the Premier League bet equaling or bettering West Ham’s result but know that a win will keep them in European competition for another season. Three of the last six meetings between these two clubs have produced over 2.5 goals and we’re expecting more of the same on Sunday. Crystal Palace’s trip to Goodison Park ended up being a 5-goal thriller and five of Man Utd’s last six outings have produced over 2.5 goals, so you can see just why we’re predicting goals this weekend. Bet9ja have 1.70 odds, Paripesa have 1.80 odds and 1xBet have 1.80 odds.
The pressure is on Arsenal to win their final game of the season but even that might not be enough to see them finish ahead of their local rivals Tottenham in the Premier League. Everton provide the opposition at the Emirates on Sunday 22nd May and after securing their Premier League status in midweek, the Toffees are bound to be in celebration mode. At least three goals have been scored in three of the last four meetings between these two clubs and we’re predicting that the goals will flow on the final day of the season as well. Five of Arsenal’s last six outings in the league have seen over 2.5 goals scored and the same can be said for three of Everton’s last four fixtures, adding further weight to our second prediction for this weekend’s clash. Bet9ja have 1.55 odds, Paripesa have 1.56 odds and 1xBet have 1.56 odds.
Even though Barcelona already secured second place and a spot in the Champions League, they want to say goodbye to their fans with a win in the last round. The last five h2h duels between Barcelona and Villarreal have all gone over 2.5 total goals, while three of their last four duels have gone over 3.5 total goals. We can see this game ending with four or more goals being scored. In addition to this, Barcelona averaged 2.81 goals per game in La Liga this season, while Villarreal averaged 2.65 goals per game in the league until now. Bet9ja have 1.47 odds, Paripesa have 1.47 odds and 1xBet have 1.47 odds.
This is a game in which we are expecting plenty of goalmouth action at both ends of the pitch. Five of the last six meetings between these two clubs in all competitions have ended with both teams scoring and producing at least three goals. Spezia’s last five outings in Serie A have also produced over 2.5 goals and seen both teams score and the same can be said for four of Napoli’s last six league games, so you can see why we’re backing goals on Sunday. Bet9ja have 1.53 odds, Paripesa have 1.57 odds and 1xBet have 1.57 odds.
Anytime Goalscorers
Vardy
Jamie Vardy might be 35-years-old but he is still an important part of Leicester’s side and while he has been injured the club has missed him. The former England international top scorer in the league for the Foxes with 14-goals and heads into the last game of the season in great form having scored 4-goals in his last three matches, so it is clear to see just why we have backed Vardy to score against Southampton. Bet9ja have 2.10 odds while Paripesa have 2.00 odds.
Lukaku
The big Belgian forward hasn’t had the season he imagined for his return to Chelsea but is the club’s second top scorer in the Premier League this season with 8-goals and has had a decent end to the season, fighting his way back into the starting eleven. On his day, Lukaku is unplayable and can rip apart any defense with his pace and power as Leed and Wolves both found out recently. With 3-goals in his last three league games, we’re backing Lukaku to end the season on a high by scoring at least one goal against Watford. Bet9ja have 1.80 odds while Paripesa have 1.72 odds.
Son
Son is the top scorer in the league this season for Tottenham with 21-goals and if he scores at least one goal on Sunday, he will go level with Salah in the scoring charts. Two goals would surely seal the Golden Boot award. The 29-year-old South Korean star has netted 8-goals in his last eight league games and we’re convinced he will find the back of the net against Norwich on Sunday. Bet9ja have 1.75 odds while Paripesa have 1.62 odds.
Diogo Jota
Jota has endured a fantastic season for Liverpool, netting 15-goals in the Premier League alone this season. The 25-year-old is due to score a goal having failed to score since netting against Man City back in April and with Jota being a former Wolves employee, it would seem fitting for the Portuguese international to score against his old club on the last day of the season. Bet9ja have 2.00 odds while Paripesa have 2.00 odds.
Martinez
Martinez has enjoyed a fantastic season in front of goal for Inter Milan, netting 21-goals in Serie A alone. The 24-year-old Argentine striker has scored goals in his last nine matches in all competitions and is enjoying his best form of the season. Bet9ja have 1.55 odds while Paripesa have 1.40 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.
