The weekend comes to an end today with fixtures from across all the top leagues in Europe. The UCL is returning this midweek and we expect a lot of shuffles from the teams today.
We have carefully selected the best options for today’s game below.
Straight Wins.
Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao clash at Spotify Camp Nou in what promises to be a fascinating La Liga clash on Sunday, October 23rd. The second meets sixth in Catalonia this weekend. Barcelona firmly left their El Clasico disappointment in the rear-view mirror on Thursday when they roared to a hugely impressive 3-0 win over Villarreal. Barca were three goals to the good by halftime in a devastating showcase of their firepower and Xavi’s charges should have too much in attack for Athletic Bilbao on Sunday. The visitors are enjoying a promising campaign, though they dropped points in each of their last three assignments, and Barcelona is priced generously to beat them. Bet9ja have 1.56 odds, Paripesa have 1.57 odds and 1xBet have 1.57 odds.
Third-placed On Sunday, Tottenham hosts Newcastle in the Premier League in what should be a high-caliber 90 minutes of soccer. Although both sides have played exceptionally well so far this season, Tottenham enters this weekend’s match as the overwhelming favorite due to home-field advantage. Spurs haven’t lost in their past five encounters with Newcastle and have recorded three victories. Tottenham has won three of their previous four games and will be eager to avenge their loss at Old Trafford last week. Despite not playing their best against Everton at home, Newcastle won by a slim margin of 1-0 despite being unbeaten in their past six games. Bet9ja have 2.12 odds, Paripesa have 2.13 odds and 1xBet have 2.13 odds.
On Sunday, October 23, Bochum and Union Berlin play in a Bundesliga match at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion. With another victory, Union will attempt to maintain its league-leading position. This season, Union Berlin is beginning to appear less like a passing trend and more like a legitimate title challenger, and their 2-0 victory against Borussia Dortmund last weekend felt like a significant statement. The Iron Ones will go to Bochum on Sunday, where anything less than a road victory would be a significant shock. The oddsmakers don’t seem to be as optimistic, though, and astonishingly, you can still see pricing at almost evens for league-leading Union to defeat the weakest club in the Bundesliga. Bet9ja have 1.90 odds, Paripesa have 1.94 odds and 1xBet have 1.94 odds.
Despite a lack of goals and efficiency, Heerenveen has maintained its position in the top 10 of the Eredivisie, while Volendam once again demonstrated that they are in severe difficulty moving ahead. Despite just having three victories this year, Heerenveen is currently sixth in the league standings. However, the squad led by Kees van Wonderen’s biggest problem is their ineffectiveness up front. Only nine goals have been scored by them, while nine goals have been conceded on the opposing side of the field. However, facing Volendam should present a strong chance to record a victory after going three games without one. Bet9ja have 2.14 odds, Paripesa have 2.18 odds and 1xBet have 2.18 odds.
While the guests have been one of the most pleasant surprises of the Premier League so far since they are currently in the top half of the standings despite being a newly-promoted team, Leeds is barely hanging outside of the relegation zone. And while Leeds beat Fulham in three of their last four h2h meetings, we can see Fulham ending that poor streak and getting a win over Leeds on Sunday. After all, this is the perfect time for them to get one over Leeds. Bet9ja have 3.50 odds, Paripesa have 3.74 odds and 1xBet have 3.74 odds.
Over 2.5
In their previous four games, Groningen has struggled, and they will find it difficult to overtake PSV. PSV is the league’s top team in covering “overs,” according to statistics. This season, they did it eight times in 10 games, and Groningen is now 6-4. With 10 goals allowed this season at home alone, Groningen has one of the league’s poorest defenses and consistently gives up goals. PSV, on the other hand, has scored 35 goals this season, which is the most in the Eredivisie and is obliterating nets everywhere. Bet9ja have 1.49 odds, Paripesa have 1.50 odds and 1xBet have 1.50 odds.
For today’s La Liga match, Girona will host Osasuna at the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi. Struggling When Girona hosts Osasuna this weekend, they are trying to put a halt to the rot. Before their meeting with Osasuna on Sunday, Girona has lost four of their past five La Liga games. Michel’s team has kept up the offensive pressure, and as a result, five of their previous six La Liga games have included more than 2.5 goals. The pattern of high-scoring games featuring Girona should continue on Sunday despite Girona’s noteworthy danger in the last third and their defense, which has been, to put it mildly, careless (11 allowed in the previous four. Bet9ja have 2.18 odds, Paripesa have 2.34 odds and 1xBet have 2.34 odds.
As they go ready to play Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga on Sunday, Schalke has dropped four straight games in both league and cup games. Hertha scored four goals in their past two Bundesliga games despite failing to find a way to win, and they can make greater use of their offensive edge against a poor Schalke team on Sunday in Berlin. We should anticipate more action this weekend since Schalke, who is fighting for relegation, has already let up an alarming eleven goals in only their past three league games. With those elements in place, betting on more than 2.5 goals seems sensible. Bet9ja have 1.72 odds, Paripesa have 1.79 odds and 1xBet have 1.79 odds.
While Bologna troubled Napoli far more than many would have expected last week, Luciano Spalletti’s men emerged with a 3-2 victory to extend their winning run to 10 games, a sequence in which they have scored 32 goals. With the Partenopei’s attacking excellence beginning to mark them out as Scudetto front-runners, Sunday’s visit to Roma will represent a serious test of those credentials. Napoli has seen over 2.5 goals scored in each of their last seven matches, winning all of them. Roma, meanwhile, has seen eight of their last 11 games contain a minimum of three goals. Bet9ja have 1.80 odds, Paripesa have 1.87 odds and 1xBet have 1.87 odds.
Excelsior had a good start to the season, but in the last four games, they failed to win which put them closer to the relegation zone. Their defense is their main problem as they have conceded 27 times which is the highest mark in the league. The last time they met was three years ago, and Excelsior shocked their opponents 4-2. Both of these teams suffered defeats last week, The last three times these teams met, there were plenty of goals to go around, mainly over 2.5 goals covered. Alkmaar has gone over this mark four straight times this season, and six in ten games overall, while Excelsior has the same mark, last week they lost at Ajax 7-1. Bet9ja have 1.45 odds, Paripesa have 1.45 odds and 1xBet have 1.45 odds.
Anytime Goalscorers
Harry Kane
Harry Kane goes in search of his 10th league goal of the campaign this weekend. Of his 9 Premier League goals this season, two have come from the penalty spot. We’re backing Tottenham’s top scorer to find the back of the net against Newcastle this weekend as he is in good form right now, netting 6-goals in his last 9 matches for club and country. Bet9ja have 2.30 odds while Paripesa have 2.10 odds.
Mitrovic
The Serbian striker has been fantastic for the last couple of seasons. After finishing last season in Championship as the absolute recorded with 43 goals in one season, Mitrovic kept going in the same rhythm in Premier League. After the first eleven rounds, Mitrovic has eight goals and he is currently only behind Haaland and Kane. So, since we can see Fulham winning this game, we also expect Mitrovic to contribute with at least one goal. Bet9ja have 2.45 odds while Paripesa have 2.15 odds.
Lewandsoki
Lewandowski found the net twice as his side defeated Villareal after the El Classico loss. The forward has the most goals in the league despite it being his first season for the Catalans in La Liga, we have selected him to score here again as he has a way of grinding out the goals in difficult situations. Barcelona would be hoping to keep chasing Real Madrid at the top and an impressive performance here is what matters. Bet9ja have 2.15 odds while Paripesa have 1.91 odds.
Bukayo Saka
The visitors have an in-form front four, including Bukayo Saka. The England international has more goal involvement than any other Gunner in the league this term, scoring four and assisting four. He’s scored in three of his last four matches including each of his last two league games, so back Saka to strike on Sunday. Bet9ja have 3.25 odds while Paripesa have 2.96 odds.
Harvey Barnes
Harvey Barnes has seen three of his last four goals serve as the game’s last, including in the win against Leeds. He can prove to be the difference yet again as his side has struggled for consistency of late and winning this would mean consecutive wins for the first time this season. Wolves don’t have what it takes to stop the forward as he is in incredible form going into this fixture. Bet9ja have 4.90 odds while Paripesa have 3.72 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.
