Napoli vs Atalanta: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 10, 2023 No Comments

Serie A high flyers Napoli will look to get back to winning ways when they welcome top-four hopefuls Atalanta to Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on Saturday. The hosts suffered a rare loss last weekend when they went down 1-0 to Lazio at home. The loss ended a run of seven consecutive wins for Luciano Spaletti’s side, who maintained a healthy double-digit lead at the top of the table regardless of the result. They will fancy their chances of winning here, given that they have yet to lose consecutive matches this Serie A season. However, an upcoming Champions League round of 16-second leg after this clash against Atalanta, who defeated them 3-2 in their last Serie A home head-to-head, adds to the intrigue. Read more: Bournemouth vs Liverpool: Preview and Expert Football Prediction The visitors are among the only two teams to have beaten Napoli this season. Yet they are losing steam in the top-four race with only two wins from their last seven league games (D2, L3). Moreover, they have suffered indifferent results in their previous nine league games away from home (W3, D3, L3), threatening their Champions League qualification for next season. They have failed to score in three successive league games for the first time since October 2018 after firing blanks against Milan (2-0) and Udinese (0-0). But this trip may help them avert that prospect as the visitors have scored in the last nine Serie A H2Hs, their longest run against Napoli. Given the history of this tie, we can expect both teams to score here. So a BTTS/GG bet is the best prediction for this game.

Bayern Munich vs Augsburg: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 10, 2023 No Comments

Bayern Munich will look to keep their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table when they welcome Augsburg to Allianz Arena on Saturday. The hosts booked their place in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League last Wednesday thanks to a 2-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain. The win was their third in a row and their fourth consecutive game, where they scored 2+ goals. The Bavarians sit joint-top at the Bundesliga table, alongside fierce rivals Borussia Dortmund. Ahead of this Bavarian derby, Bayern manager Julian Nagelsmann will hope to continue his impressive personal record against Augbsurg. Read more: Napoli vs Atalanta: Preview and Expert Football Prediction The Bayern coach has beaten these opponents more than any other (W12), although he lost out to them 1-0 earlier in the season – the only occasion Bayern have failed to score in their last 104 top-flight contests. Augsburg will likely suffer to win here, given that Bayern are unbeaten in their last 18 Bundesliga games at home (W12, D6). But the visitors will make the 40-mile trip to Allianz Arena boosted by triumph in their previous league outing. Augsburg beat Werder Bremen 2-1 last weekend to lift themselves eight points above the dropzone ahead of the Round. That’s the most significant cushion they’ve enjoyed over the relegation spots all season. However, there is one glaring problem ahead of this contest; their travel sickness. The Fuggerstädter have won all four of their top-flight home contests to start the year but lost all four of their away outings, marking the biggest contrast between home and away points of any Bundesliga side in 2023 (12), which perhaps makes what would be a surprise victory even more unlikely.

March 10, 2023 No Comments

As the MLS picks up pace, it keeps getting better. Philadelphia Union VS Chicago Fire is one of the interesting matches to come out of this progress. It holds on matchday 3 between two old soccer acquaintances in the United States. Philadelphia started on the right foot by scoring a home win in their first game of the 2023 season but fumbled this win by losing to Inter Miami. Chicago Fire on the other hand has a draw and intends to impress in their second match. Without wasting any more time, MatchPlug brings the Best Betting Tips Today and MLS Predictions for the Union and Fire match. We have analysis and other important information about the match too. Predictions and Betting Preview for Philadelphia Union VS Chicago Fire Venue: Subaru Park, Chester, Pennsylvania When: Saturday, March 11th, 2023 Time: 16:30 GMT Teams to play: Philadelphia Union and Chicago Fire MLS Picks: OVER 2.5 Odds as provided by 1XBet and BetMGM. Betting On The Philadelphia Union SC 1XBet Spread: – 1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.46 BetMGM Over/Under: Over 2.5 Bet MGM Moneyline: 1.44 Coached by Jim Curtin, the Philadelphia Union won fans over on the first MLS day with a 4-1 victory over Columbus Crew. But, in their last match with Inter Miami, they lost by a score of 2-0. In spite of the result, the match was even, there were certain yellow cards, and Corentin Jean scored a goal first. This game with Chicago Fire is a chance for the Union to win its second game at home and start building on a season par with the last one, where it finished in first place in the Eastern Conference. Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Andre Blake; Olivier Mbaizo, Jakob Glesnes, Jack Elliot, Kai Wagner; Alejandro Bedoya, José Martínez, Leon Flach, Daniel Gazdag; Mikael Uhre, Julián Carranza. Betting On Chicago Fire 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 6.35 BetMGM Over/Under: Under 2.5 Bet MGM Moneyline: 6.25 The visiting team enters Philadelphia Union VS Chicago Fire, after a low-key start to the 2023 season. In their first match against New York City Football Club, Chicago drew 1-1 at home. They opened the scoring because of defensive errors on Gabriel Pereira’s accuracy. Later, Fabian Herbes scored from outside the box to tie the score. However, the team still couldn’t get on top of the scoreboard. This new opportunity is essential for the actualization of Ezra Hendrickson’s plan which incorporates a two-year process with almost the same group of players, thereby developing chemistry and an effective play style. Possible Lineup (4-5-1): Spencer Richey, Arnaud Souquet, Carlos Terán, Rafael Czichos, Miguel Navarro; Ían Torres, Federico Navarro, Brian Gutiérrez, Xherdan Shaqiri, Chris Mueller; Kacper Przybylko. MatchPlug Prediction For the match between Philadelphia Union and Chicago Fire, Philadelphia will collect all the points. They’ve had a good start home, where they left a warm feeling. They lost to Inter Miami but showed they had what it takes to have a great MLS season. Chicago often plays well and is strong at home. Chicago still needs to find their rhythm and didn’t inspire confidence in their debut against New York City. Final Prediction: Philadelphia Union wins by 2 goals.

March 10, 2023 No Comments

Toronto FC VS Columbus Crew is another game happening on matchday 3 of the 2023 MLS campaign, Saturday, March 11. These teams have not had a good start to the season, and they won’t want to be defeated for the second game in a row. MatchPlug has the Best Betting Tips Today and MLS Predictions for Toronto and Columbus Crew. We have predictions and odds for other MLS matchday 3 matches you can find below this article. Related Preview: MLS Matchday 3 Prediction: DC United VS Orlando City Predictions Predictions and Betting Preview for Toronto FC VS Columbus Crew Venue: BMO Field, Toronto, Ontario When: Saturday, March 11th, 2023 Time: 16:30 GMT Teams to play: Toronto FC and Columbus Crew. MLS Picks: MONEYLINE 2.06 Odds as provided by 1XBet and BetMGM. Betting On Toronto FC 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.06 BetMGM Over/Under: Over 2.5 Bet MGM Moneyline: 2.05 Toronto FC comes into matchday 3 hoping for their first win of the year. They lost 3-2 in the opening-day match against DC United, where they gave up two goals in stoppage time. Additionally, they drew 1-1 in their visit to Atlanta United on the last matchday after blowing their leverage. This is Toronto’s first home game of the season, a setup where they haven’t done very well lately, winning only two of their last 9 MLS appearances and most of their recent matches against Columbus Crew. If Toronto should have a positive outcome tomorrow it will be thanks to Federico Bernardeschi who scored in the first two games, twice after the break. Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Sean Johnson; Richie Laryea, Matt Hedges, Sigurd Rosted, Raoul Pedretta; Michael Bradley, Mark-Anthony Kaye; Brandon Servania, Federico Bernardeschi, Jonathan Osorio; Adama Diomande. Betting On Columbus Crew 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 3.36 BetMGM Over/Under: Under 2.5 Bet MGM Moneyline: 3.30 Columbus Crew on the other hand came back from a 4-1 loss to Philadelphia Union on Matchday 1, by winning 2-0 over DC United in their last game, thanks to Lucas Zelarayan’s first-half brace. Besides the three points, the victory would have been satisfying for Wilfried Nancy’s defense, which broke a losing streak where they lost seven consecutive games, giving up goals. But, Crew’s offense has brought the team succour, as this was their 8th game in a row with a goal. They will now have a harder time securing a series of victories, which they haven’t done since the end of the 2021 campaign and the start of the 2022 season. To pull this off, they will have to break the jinx of losing their last eight home games. Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Eloy Room; Steven Moreira, Milos Degenek, Philip Quinton; Mohammed Farsi, Darlington Nagbe, Aidan Morris, Yaw Yeboah, Alexandru Matan, Cucho Hernandez; Lucas Zelarayan. MatchPlug Prediction Toronto FC showed promise in their early matches, with a good offense headed by Bernardeschi; but their poor defense is their Achilles Heel. This is a problem that Columbus Crew who also gave up goals, suffers from too. Four of the past 5 league meetings between these clubs scored three points. Taking account of the defensive shortcomings of Toronto and Columbus, and their good offensive play, fans can expect a high-scoring match, as the trend will continue.Final Prediction: Toronto Moneyline and Over.

Spezia vs Inter Milan: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 10, 2023 No Comments

Inter Milan will travel to Stadio Alberto Picco this Friday to face Spezia in the 26th Round of the 2022/23 Serie A season. Struggling Spezia did little to boost their survival hopes at the weekend as they held to a goalless draw by Hellas Verona. That draw means they missed the chance to open up a six-point gap to 18th place, with Spezia currently sat in 17th position, three points ahead of Verona. Read more: AS Roma vs Real Sociedad: Preview and Expert Football Prediction But that result did at least extend Spezia’s unbeaten run under new boss Leonardo Semplici to two matches (D2). They will now face one of the biggest occasions Serie A can offer – Inter Milan. Spezia have not fared well in this fixture, as they have zero wins in their last six encounters with Inter (D1, L5). And considering Semplici’s side are winless in their last nine league home games (D5, L4), failing to score a goal across the previous five, there appears little chance of a maiden head-to-head win here. Inter Milan look primed to take all three points from this game, considering their form heading into this fixture. The visitors are currently the second-best team in the league, with four wins in their last six league games (D1, L1), giving them a grip on second place as their quest for a sixth successive top-four finish continues. After suffering a rare 1-0 loss to Bologna on their last away trip, Inter will be desperate to bounce back from that loss which was their first league away defeat of 2023 on their previous road trip. Considering they come into the round with a joint-second most Serie A goals scored in the opening ten minutes of games (five), they will fancy their chances of ensuring they bounce back very early in this game. That said, a ‘Goal First Half’ bet will be the correct prediction for this game.

Cadiz vs Getafe: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 10, 2023 No Comments

It’s a huge battle between two relegation-threatened teams this weekend in La Liga as Getafe travel to Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla to Cadiz in the 25th round of the 2022/23 La Liga season. Both sides come into this tie separated by one point after 24 rounds of games. They are both sandwiched in the middle of a relegation logjam involving seven teams separated by just three points. But Cadiz have the advantage in the run-in given that their next three matches all come against clubs one point below them in the standings (Getafe, Almería, Sevilla). They come into this tie with confidence, given that they currently have the league’s third-longest home undefeated run (W4, D5). Furthermore, the hosts have also won their last three home games – their longest La Liga win streak since 1990/91, so they will fancy their chances of taking maximum points here. Read more: Manchester United vs Real Betis: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Getafe will hope to continue their unbeaten run against Cadiz when they travel to Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla on Friday. The visitors, who are unbeaten in their last three games against their hosts (W1, D2), gave their survival chances a boost last time courtesy of a 3-2 home win over Girona. The win made it two wins in three games for Quique Sánchez Flores’ side, who also scored 2+ goals in a La Liga game for the first time since December. Their target will be to build on that win and end their recent winless record away from home. Like Cadiz, most of the visitors’ successes have come at home, with their most recent La Liga away win coming last October (D1, L4 since). That said, given the low firepower of both teams, we should expect a low-scoring affair with under 2.5 goals scored.

Manchester United vs Real Betis: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 9, 2023 No Comments

Manchester United will look to get back to winning ways when they host Real Betis in the first leg of their Europa League round of 16 tie. The hosts suffered their most-embarrassing defeat under Erik ten Hag last time when they were beaten by their fierce rivals Liverpool at Anfield. In a shocking second-half display, the Red Devils conceded six times on their way to a 7-0 loss to Liverpool. The loss was their biggest loss ever to Liverpool and ended a run of eleven games without defeat for United (W9, D2). Ten Hag declared after the match that his side’s performance at Anfield must not be repeated. However, he will hope that his boys can pick themselves up at Old Trafford, where they have been unbeaten since September (W17, D2). Read more: Tottenham vs AC Milan: Preview and Expert Football Prediction However, United have a poor history against Spanish teams. The Red Devil’s last defeat on their own turf was to Spanish opposition in the form of Real Sociedad in this season’s group stage. However, optimistic Old Trafford faithful will feel that the loss came too far back as United recently defeated Barcelona 2-1 at this Stadium. Real Betis will hope to avoid the fate of Barca when they travel to Old Trafford for the first time. The Spanish side come into this fixture in decent form, having not tasted defeat in their last four competitive games (W3, D1). They held UCL champions Real Madrid to a goalless draw at the weekend to ensure they remain just three points adrift of the top four in La Liga. Los Verdiblancos are strong on the road, where they have won each of their last three road trips, with the last two decided by a 3-2 scoreline. The Andalusian side are also unbeaten in five UEL matches away from home (W4, D1). Moreover, they qualified through the group stages without tasting defeat (W5, D1), so they’re unlikely to be intimidated by the boisterous Old Trafford crowd. Click here to get the correct score prediction for this game.

AS Roma vs Real Sociedad: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 9, 2023 No Comments

AS Roma will welcome Real Sociedad to Stadio Olimpico this Thursday for the first leg of their Europa League Round of 16 tie. After losing 1-0 in their first leg against Salzburg last Round, Roma qualified for this tournament stage by beating the Austrian side 2-0 at home. That win at home was followed up by another narrow 1-0 win over Juventus last weekend, meaning that the hosts have won their last four home games in all competitions. Read more: Manchester United vs Real Betos: Preview and Expert Football Prediction They have also kept a clean sheet in all those home games and have only conceded in one home game since the turn of the year. So Jose Mourinho’s men come into this tie in strong defensive form. But considering they have won only one of their last ten UEFA matches against Spanish clubs (D2, L7), they will rely on their home form to see them through this first-ever meeting with Real Sociedad. The visitors will travel to Rome looking to secure a spot in a European quarter-final for the first time in 34 years. However, they will make the trip to Italy on the back of an indifferent seven-game run (W1, D3, L3), casting doubts on their preparedness to win. Their most recent outing was a goalless draw against Cádiz on Friday. Though it was a poor result, it was enough to keep them inside the LA Liga top four. The White and Blues qualified for this tournament’s stage directly, thanks to a top-of-the-table finish in their group. In addition, they were the only team to win their first five UEL group games this season, which included three away wins on the trot. They can become just the third team to win four consecutive UEL matches on their travels. But achieving that feat will likely require an improvement on their recent away form, as the visitors have won just one of their last four competitive away games (D1, L2), alarmingly failing to score on three occasions. So given Roma’s strong defensive showing at home and Sociedad’s recent inability to score away from home, the best prediction for this game is under 2.5 goals.

Tottenham vs AC Milan: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

March 8, 2023 No Comments

Tottenham and AC Milan will face off in North London this Wednesday for the second leg of their Champions League knockout tie. Tottenham lost 1-0 in the first leg at the San Siro, with an early goal by Brahim Díaz the difference on the night. But, unfortunately, it was by the same scoreline that the hosts fell to defeat in Premier League action at the weekend, too, going down against relegation-battling Wolves. The latest result has put their chances of finishing in the Premier League top four in jeopardy, with perennial top four chasers Liverpool just three points behind with a game in hand. Read more: Tottenham vs AC Milan: Preview and Expert Football Prediction So, though highly unlikely, winning this competition is becoming increasingly for Spurs, who are seeking to overturn a first-leg deficit for the third time in four such instances in European competition. The return of manager Antonio Conte to the dugout after a brief spell on the sidelines could be the best omen of all for Tottenham, given the Italian boss has won five of his last six managerial home games against Milan in all competitions. Like their hosts, AC Milan suffered a similarly poor domestic result at the weekend, going down 2-1 against Fiorentina. As a result, they have lost ground in the race for second in Serie A, with their away form much to blame for their failed title defence this season. Things could worsen in North London as the visitors have a poor record against Premier League teams. The San Siro side have five defeats from their last six two-legged knockout ties against English opposition. Stefano Pioli’s men have also lost by an aggregate 9-1 score on their previous three visits to the English capital in European competition. So, they must do better than their previous visits to England to secure their first UCL quarter-final appearance in 11 years. But, with 37 wins out of 43 UEFA competition ties in which they won the first leg at home, Pioli’s side should have some belief. Click here to get the correct score tomorrow.
