As we approach round 34 of the domestic season, some sides are on the verge of winning while there is all to play for in some quarters.
It’s that time of the season where results are unpredictable due to several reasons and making picks could be quite tricky.
Regardless, we’ll be aiming to end on a high as we bring you the likely betting tips and predictions to go with from all of the day’s action.
Straight Wins
PSG are on the course to an early Ligue 1 crown. They are 15 points ahead of second-placed Marseille with five games to spare. A win in this game, hoping that Marseille loses their next game, will have earned PSG a deserved title this season. We expect a massive win for the Parisians in this game and we are tipping them to get all three points here today. While Lens are equally in a fairly good form after winning all their last three games and four of the last five, the visitors could prove troublesome but not for long. PSG have a revenge mission in this game especially after settling for a 1-1 draw in the reverse game. Most importantly, Pochettino’s men have their eyes on the title and there is no better place to bag the crown than on their home ground. Bet9ja have 1.30 odds, Paripesa have 1.32 odds and 1xBet have 1.32 odds.
Monaco iareon a five-match winning streak ahead of this trip to Saint-Etienne. A five-match winning streak and hunger for a place in the top five should get Monaco fired up in this duel. While both teams have a good scoring run in their last five games, Monaco is our pick to bag maximum points. They risk losing the fifth spot to Nice, who are only two points away in sixth place. Bet9ja have 1.83 odds, Paripesa have 1.87 odds and 1xBet have 1.87 odds.
Manchester City only have a mere one point lead at the top of the Premier League table and simply have to keep on winning as their title rivals Liverpool appear to be in fantastic form. Watford arrive at the Etihad in need of points as they try to escape the clutches of relegation but a defeat this weekend could see the Hornet slip down to bottom. Manchester City are the big favorites to beat Watford this weekend and actually haven’t lost against their guests since way back in 1987. City has secured wins in each of their last seven matches against the Hornets. We are surely not expecting any surprises as we expect to see the Citizens cruise to victory here today. Bet9ja have 1.12 odds, Paripesa have 1.13 odds and 1xBet have 1.13 odds.
Inter Milan could move back to the top of the Serie A table this weekend if they can find a way to beat Roma at the San Siro. The visitors arrive needing a win to put pressure on Juventus who currently occupy the final Champions League spot. Inter Milan have already beaten Roma twice this season, 3-0 in their reverse league fixture and 2-0 in the Coppa Italia, so you can already start to see just why we’re backing a home win on Saturday. The hosts have secured four wins from their last four outings in league and cup, securing safe passage through to the Coppa Italia final on Tuesday night by defeating local rival AC Milan 3-0 on aggregate. Bet9ja have 1.67 odds, Paripesa have 1.66 odds and 1xBet have 1.66 odds.
Off the back of three consecutive victories, Freiburg take on the challenge of Monchengladbach at home on Saturday, 23 April. The Colts arrive in Europa-Park Stadion after a home defeat and will want to get back to winning ways. Similar to the next rivals, Monchengladbach have also secured three wins in the last five games. The Prussians have also got the back of successive two-away victories. However, Freiburg also registered three winnings in the last four home duels. Moreover, Breisgau-Brasilianer are also undefeated in all of the last five H2Hs at home, winning four of them. It promises to be an exciting duel but we set our prediction of victory in the favour of Freiburg. Bet9ja have 1.86 odds, Paripesa have 1.86 odds and 1xBet have 1.86 odds.
Over 2.5 Goals
Leicester are bound to have one eye on their Conference League semi-final and that could give Aston Villa the chance to end their losing run in the Premier League this weekend. We’re expecting an entertaining 90-minutes on Saturday with plenty of goalmouth action. At least three goals have been scored in five of the last seven head-to-heads between Leicester and Aston Villa, and we’re predicting another action-packed 90-minutes on Saturday. Three of the Foxes’ last four outings have produced over 2.5 goals, while five of Aston Villa’s last six games have witnessed at least three goals scored. Bet9ja have 1.80 odds, Paripesa have 1.88 odds and 1xBet have 1.88 odds.
Brentford have shown some great performances to move well away from the relegation places and now looks like they could claim a top-half finish in the Premier League this season. Tottenham remain the favorites to secure the final Champions League place but can’t afford to slip up as Arsenal are level on points as them and Man Utd are just three behind. At least three goals have been scored in four of Brentford’s last six league games, including a 3-1 win over Norwich, 4-1 win at Chelsea, and the 2-1 victory at Watford last time out. Four of Tottenham’s last six games have also witnessed over 2.5 goals scored, including a 3-1 win over West Ham, the 5-1 demolition of Newcastle, and a 4-0 victory at Aston Villa. Bet9ja have 1.88 odds, Paripesa have 1.92 odds and 1xBet have 1.92 odds.
Norwich simply must start winning games, especially at home, if they want to remain in the Premier League for another season. This weekend, the Canaries welcome in-form Newcastle to Carrow Road, a ground the Magpies haven’t won at since 1994. At least three goals have been scored in four of the last six meetings between Norwich and Newcastle, and we’re expecting another action-packed 90-minutes on Saturday. Four of Norwich’s last six outings have produced over 2.5 goals as having two of Newcastle’s last four fixtures, so you can see why we’re backing goals this weekend. Bet9ja have 1.94 odds, Paripesa have 1.99 odds and 1xBet have 1.99 odds.
Both PSG and Lens lost once in their last five Ligue 1 matches. Notably, the two teams are also in a good scoring run. PSG should be the highest-scoring team in this duel, especially based on their last four results, which all resulted in over 2.5 outcomes. Regardless, the Parisians have had troubled defense this season. PSG are likely to concede at least a goal in this game, which is why we have tipped over 2.5 goals in this match. Bet9ja have 1.42 odds, Paripesa have 1.43 odds and 1xBet have 1.43 odds.
Cambuur look like one of the Eredivisie’s most fragile units following a dreadful run of eight defeats in nine matches and The Yellow-Blues face another daunting task on Saturday when they host title-chasing PSV. Fresh from their KNVB Beker final win over Ajax, the Boeren should be in excellent spirits and they hammered Cambuur 4-1 when the sides met back in August. Saturday’s return fixture has the makings of another one-sided contest and the over 2.5 goals market appeals again as a result. Bet9ja have 1.40 odds, Paripesa have 1.41 odds and 1xBet have 1.41 odds.
Anytime Goalscorers
Tadic
Serbian attacker Dusan Tadic helped himself to two of Ajax’s goals when they demolished NEC 5-0 in August last year and the veteran forward is in strong enough form currently to cut through the same defense in Saturday’s rematch. The 33-year-old has scored in each of his last five Eredivisie appearances and Tadic can make another match-defining impact in Nijmegen. Bet9ja have 2.25 odds while Paripesa have 1.725 odds.
Kevin de Bruyne
Manchester City’s chief playmaker is on the verge of having his best goalscoring season in the Premier League and needs just two more goals to equal his best-ever tally of 13, scored during the 2019/20 campaign. The Belgian superstar has scored six-goals in his last 10 appearances for Man City in all competitions and is due to a goal this weekend having failed to score in each of his last three outings. Watford have a leaky defense and De Bruyne has a great chance to get on the scoreboard against them this weekend. Bet9ja have 2.15 odds while Paripesa have 2.50 odds.
Mbappe
PSG could rely on Kylian Mabppé for a good start as he’s found the net before half-time in their last four outings. The Frenchman could as well be on his way to breaking the Ligue 1 goals record here today and he is the right man to call when PSG needs the goals. He has scored in his last four appearances for the club and he scored 7 goals in 4 games. Bet9ja have 1.60 odds while Paripesa have 1.56 odds.
Son
Heung-min Son has scored the goals in his two-prior personal H2Hs against Brentford. Making this selection here an easy one, his team would be looking to bounce back from a disappointing loss from last weekend which saw them miss out on putting little distance between them and the other top 4 contenders. Son has been impressive this season, scoring the most goals for his club in the league and he would surely relish this opportunity to keep Tottenham ahead with a win here today. Bet9ja have 2.65 odds while Paripesa have 2.50 odds.
Lautaro Martínez
Inter’s Lautaro Martínez netted a brace in midweek and has four goal contributions across his last two matches, despite playing only 100 minutes in total. This is a staggering stat for the Argentine and we think he can pull off another masterclass here today with his red-hot form at the moment. He can surely be the difference as we have already tipped Inter to win this tie and we know what he can deliver when he is on a streak like this. Bet9ja have 2.00 odds while Paripesa have 2.40 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.
