  • Time:  13:30.
  • Teams to play: Heracles and Ajax.

Betting On Heracles

  • 1XBet Spread: +1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 6.61

As Heracles recovers from a recent defeat, their opponent will continue their consistent rise to the top. The 12th position visitors entered the international break after losing 4-1 to G.A. Eagles. Their third loss gave them a total of 9 points from 8 games. Hopefully, they’ve had time to regroup during the break. 

Heracles will work their way to the top, but they are also the underdogs in this match, given that they have no wins against six matches with Ajax. The home side have just one victory in the last seven league fixtures they hosted. 

Betting On Ajax 

  • 1XBet Spread: -1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 1.43

Ajax resumed their rise in the Eredivisie last time they played, defeating Groningen 3-1 at home. In a game that pinned them to the ground, they scored two goals in stoppage time to win. When it seemed that Jorg Schreuders equaliser would conclude the game, Woust Weghorst and Chuba Akpom delivered late goals to give Ajax an eight games unbeaten streak. 

Six of those are victories and in four they kept clean sheets. But, recreating this exact run on the road has been the guests’ major issue. They have only three victories in 10 league games away, and maintained one clean sheet in 18. 

MatchPlug Prediction For Heracles VS Ajax 

Ajax are the favourites to win and will use today’s fixture as another step to climb up the ladder. They haven’t been beaten by Heracles in their last six matches, winning 5. The only thing the guest will worry about is having few clean sheets in road appearances. Luckily, the hosts haven’t kept clean sheets at home too, plus they have just one win in the past seven Eredivisie matches. 

Final Prediction: Ajax Moneyline.

Predictions and Betting Preview For Kiel VS Union Berlin

  • Venue: Holstein Stadion.
  • When: Sunday, October 20th, 2024.
  • Time:  16:30
  • Teams to play: Kiel and Berlin.
  • Expert Picks: MONEYLINE 2.224.

Odds provided by 1XBet

Betting On Kiel

  • 1XBet Spread: 0
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 3.625

Holstein Kiel haven’t fared well in the German top flight, and have had a bumpy ride to the top of the Bundesliga. After playing six games, Kiel are second from the bottom, without any win and only have two points to show this season.

However, Holstein has a lot of lessons to learn from the match that gave them their second point. They came from 2-0 down to secured a 2-2 draw with reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen. With a good scoring form, Kiel will be optimistic about building on the game with Bayer. 

Betting On Berlin

  • 1XBet Spread: 0
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 2.224

Union Berlin had a great start to the year, which continued up until the international break. They needed a second chance after losing for the first time this season and did that very well. Berlin achieved a huge feat by defeating Borussia Dortmund 2-1 at home to keep growing in the league. That victory put them in sixth place, with a chance to move into the top four. 

Union will be out for blood as they seek their fourth victory in the Bundesliga. They will do so on the back of a four-match undefeated streak against Kiel. As they struggle with their form on the road, today’s match looks like a shot at a first league victory in nine away. 

MatchPlug Prediction For Kiel VS Union Berlin 

Kiel will hope to exploit Union’s weak away form as they hope to snap their three consecutive Bundesliga losses. However, seeing as Berlin has the most experience in this league, they might be able to edge the match. 

Final Prediction: Union Berlin Moneyline. 

rummenigge: 'i asked pep about kompany before appointment

Rummenigge: ‘I asked Pep about Kompany before appointment’

Bayern Munich board member Karl-Heinz Rummenigge says he asked Pep Guardiola about Vincent Kompany before hiring the former player. 

Kompany joined Bayern from Burnley this summer, although he was also a former captain for Pep Guardiola, at Manchester City.

Rummenigge said to Kicker: “Max Eberl (the sporting director) asked me to talk to him because I am very close friends with Pep.

“I told Pep that I needed an analysis that was authentic and honest. We then spoke on the phone for almost two hours. To make a long story short, he said that he was 100 percent convinced that Vincent Kompany was absolutely the right coach for Bayern.

“Sometimes fate helps you. The number of rejections that Max Eberl unfortunately had to deal with meant that we may have gotten exactly the coach we needed for this team.

“There were two decisive factors: the team likes the style of football, and so do the fans. Football should be fun. This is exactly why children play in the street. And you can see that in our team too.”

Bournemouth surprise Arsenal as Arterta maintains: ‘Saliba red changed everything’

Arsenal got William Saliba sent off the field as Bournemouth shocked the Gunners with a 2-0 beating at Dean Court on Saturday.

Saliba saw red in the half-hour as Justin Kluivert and Ryan Christie scored for Bournemouth. 

When asked if the dismissal changed the match, Arteta said: “Absolutely. We are very disappointed with the result and gutted because we had to play in that context again. Even more difficult than the previous two that we have faced this season to do it with 65 or 68 minutes with 10 men at this level, it’s just an impossible task.

“It’s an accident waiting to happen not to get the points. I cannot fault the team for their effort, their commitment, to play in the way we had to do it. There was a big moment at 0-0 when we had a one-vs-one with the ‘keeper and we didn’t manage to score. Then at the other end we do that.

“We have to (look at) ourselves. Tonight we made two big errors that cost us the game unfortunately.

“It was a decision made on the pitch. That decision was changed. I don’t think it will change twice. The decision has been made.

“What happens today is almost unpredictable – that the winger is going to play the ball to the centre back one touch, and it’s going to be a challenge there with 40 or 35 metres to go.. Very difficult to plan it. But certainly we need to play with 11vs11 if we want to be in the position that we want to be.”

Arteta added, “Willy has never done anything like this and he doesn’t do it on purpose. Or what happened with the second goal. But it happened. Unfortunately we couldn’t turn it around which is very unlikely for the third time in the season.

“We got away with it twice – the situation was a bit different because we were already ahead in the result. But we have to accept it. Move on and have that pain for Tuesday (in the Champions League). That’s it.”

enzo fernandez regrets leaving benfica

Enzo Fernandez regrets leaving Benfica

Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez has said he did not like the manner he left things with Benfica one year ago. 

Fernandez made a shocking move in 2023, after the 2022 World Cup.

Liga Portugal side Benfica wanted to keep Enzo Fernandez for an extra six months or even for another season, but could not stop Chelsea from signing him for £106 million.

“Let me say hello to the Benfica fans, who always send messages and remember me,” Fernandez said.

“Obviously I didn’t like the way I left the club, but I am very grateful to the club and everyone for all the support they gave me.”

Coach Enzo Maresca also praised Fernandez this season: “I think it’s very difficult in the way we play to find a midfielder that can attack like an attacking midfielder and defend like a holding midfielder. For instance, Arsenal are using Declan Rice as an attacking midfielder on the ball and as a holding midfielder when defending. Man City, in the past, have done this with Ilkay Gundogan.

“In our case, we are trying to find the balance and find the players who can give us this kind of solution. At the moment, Enzo is the only one. When we have the ball, he is playing like an attacking midfielder, and is dropping next to Moi (Caicedo) when we don’t have the ball to help us and give us defensive balance.”

suarez open to playing for miami in 2025

Suárez open to playing for Inter Miami in 2025: “I would be delighted”

Will Inter Miami fans be seeing more of Luis Suárez in 2025?

Suárez, signed with Miami in December through the 2024 MLS campaign. He discussed the possibility of that happening on Friday, saying he would be “delighted” to return next season. 

“I know my lawyer is speaking with the club,” Suárez told reporters on the eve of Miami’s Decision Day match vs. the New England Revolution (6 pm ET | MLS Season Pass). “But with the peace of mind of finishing the season.

“I wanted to finish the best way possible, showing the club I have enthusiasm. I feel well physically and I have the desire to continue being a part of the history of this club.”

Suárez has been a significant part of the Heron’s season, scoring an 18g/7a record in 2024. He helped them win the Supporters’ Shield title. He also held down the fort when Lionel Messi was absent due to injury. 

According to him, it is now up to Miami to decide whether or not they want to keep him.

“It’s up to the club,” Suárez said. “For me, I would be delighted.”

Suárez returning to the club means that Miami will get another year of the “Big Four”. That is the group made up of Messi, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba. Messi and Busquets have confirmed extensions through the end of next year, while Alba has the choice for 2025.

“I’m enjoying myself,” Suárez said of his reunion with Messi. “You have to enjoy having the best player in the world – not only myself, but all his teammates who train with him every day.

“We’re privileged, and so are all the people who have the chance to see him, the people who travel across the United States just to see him. It says a lot about him.”

The Big Four have already made significant strides this season, securing the Supporters’ Shield. They also a Decision Day victory on Saturday to snap the MLS single-season points term.

Miami will begin their race for a first-ever MLS Cup in Round One of the Audi 2024 MLS Cup Playoffs with a standalone game on Friday, October 25. 

“We don’t consider ourselves favorites, but we have to be strong at home since every game will be decided here,” Suárez said of the Herons, who will enjoy home-field advantage throughout the playoffs, leading up to MLS Cup on Dec. 7.

“There’s a reason why we earned the most points.”

  • When: Sunday, October 20th, 2024.
  • Time: 19:45.

Odds provided by 1XBet.

Betting On Montpellier

  • 1XBet Spread: +1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 4.4

Montpellier have only one point from their last three home league matches against Marseille. They have had a hard time with form this term with just four points from their first seven Ligue 1 matches. This left them two points away from safety. Defending is the hosts biggest issue, with 21 goals conceded in seven league matches, the worst record in the league this year. Their poor away form is the biggest cause of their problems, losing all four matches and failing to stop 15 goals. 

At home, Montpellier have just one point from their first two league fixtures before beginning off the mark with a 3-2 victory over Auxerre who have lost four of their last five games. This will be harder and Marseille may win as a result. 

Betting On Marseille

  • 1XBet Spread: -1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 1.782

Marseille will start the weekend five points behind Ligue 1 leaders Monaco and three points away from PSG who are second. They have the best away record in the league this term. Marseille won their first three matches at Brest, Toulouse and Lyon (with 11 goals recorded) before losing 1-0 to Strasbourg. 

The visitors’ most recent league match was in a 1-1 draw with Angers, a match where they opened the scoring. Mason Greenwood has been in good form for the team in away matches with four road league goals so far this campaign. 

MatchPlug Prediction For Montpellier VS Marseille 

Montpellier have started the season slowly and can’t stop giving up goals. They have already failed to stop 21 goals this year in the league and will now face Marseille who have 11 in four away matches. The guests have the best road record in Ligue 1 and have a good chance of securing a fourth victory. 

Final Prediction: Marseille Moneyline.

Betting On Los Angeles Galaxy

  • 1XBet Spread: +1.5

MatchPlug Prediction For Houston Dynamo VS Los Angeles Galaxy

Soccer Predictions Today: FC Dallas VS Sporting Kansas City Sure Tips

FC Dallas will host Sporting Kansas City at the Toyota Stadium in Texas tonight, as they look to end their three-game winless run. Watch Dallas VS Kansas.

You can find the Soccer Predictions for Dallas VS Kansas on MatchPlug. We are a reliable Prediction Site for Major League Soccer predictions and previews. 

Predictions and Betting Preview For FC Dallas VS Sporting Kansas City

  • Venue: Toyota Stadium.
  • When: Sunday, 19th October, 2024.
  • Time: 02:00.
  • Teams to play: Dallas and Kansas. 
  • MLS Picks: DRAW.

Odds presented by 1XBet.

Betting On FC Dallas 

  • 1XBet Spread: -1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 1.764

It’s been a turbulent season for Dallas, who have been unstable. Once, they went a few matches undefeated, and another time, they went weeks without winning. After going four matches undefeated between July and August, the hosts won only once in their next seven. 

Now with only 38 points from 33 matches, FC Dallas have dropped to the 11th position of the Western Conference table. The hosts’ poor run also got Nico Estévez fired in June with Peter Luccin acting as interim manager. So far, he too has had problems managing the team.

Betting On Sporting Kansas City 

  • 1XBet Spread: +1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 3.845

But, Dallas have fared much better than Sporting Kansas City, as the guests are in a far worse position. They are second from the bottom in MLS standings. Kansas have secured seven points less than the home side and won only eight matches all year. 

The last time Sporting won a top-flight fixture was a month ago, when they beat the Rapids 4-1, as they went amok in the second half. But since then. things have become bad for them, making that win seem like a false sense of security. 

MatchPlug Prediction For FC Dallas VS Sporting Kansas City 

This match is between two struggling clubs, dwelling in the lower bottom of the MLS table. With Dallas failing to win their last three matches, Kansas City entered the fixture on a three-match skid. Given the lack of quality from both sides, expect a draw.

Final Prediction: Draw.

Soccer Predictions Today: Austin FC VS Colorado Rapids Sure Tips

Austin FC will host the Colorado Rapids at Q2 Stadium in Major League Soccer on Sunday. The visitors need to win Austin VS Colorado more than the home side do.

MatchPlug presents the Soccer Predictions today for Austin VS Colorado, we are a Sure Prediction Site where you can get previews and picks for all MLS matches.

Predictions and Betting Preview For Austin FC VS Colorado Rapids 

  • Venue: Q2 Stadium.
  • When: Sunday, 20th October, 2024.
  • Time:  02:00.
  • Teams: Austin FC and Colorado Rapids. 
  • MLS Picks: 

Odds as provided by 1XBet.

Betting On Austin FC

  • 1XBet Spread: -1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Over 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 2.068

Austin is 10th in the Western Conference table on 39 points, which causes a direct elimination from the playoff race. They have won 10 times in 33 games, drawing 9 and losing 14. In their last two clashes with the Rapids, Colorado came out as the winners, beating them by a 2-0 and 1-0 scoreline. 

The guests have played better than they did in the last season where they finished 25th in overall league standings. They are presently 19th ahead of the final matchday. But, this is not a good enough result, as they never came close to winning their first-ever title in the top flight.

Betting On Colorado Rapids

  • 1XBet Spread: +1.5
  • 1XBet Over/Under: Under 3.5
  • 1XBet Moneyline: 3.035

The Colorado Rapids are sixth in the Western Conference table on 50 points, which gets them into round 1 of the playoffs. But, that could change if they lose to Austin today, especially with the Vancouver Whitecaps capable of dethroning them depending on a goal difference.

Colorado are concluding one of their best seasons since winning a championship in 2010. Last year, they ended 28th overall and did not make the playoffs. They need a major win to secure their spot. Rapids have won only once at the Q2 Stadium, which was in August 2021.

MatchPlug Prediction For Austin FC VS Colorado Rapids 

Austin have nothing to lose in this game, but they will still put up a good fight that could help them next campaign. Colorado have a choice to decide their fate and have to do that today. But, if they lose, they will have to hope that the Whitecaps will lose. Rapids are the favourites to win this match. 

Final Prediction: Colorado Rapids Moneyline.
