Arsenal vs Brighton: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

The title race continues this Sunday with second-placed Arsenal taking in overachievers Brighton at the Etihad Stadium. The Gunners kept their hopes of a title win alive with a gusty 2-0 win over top-four hopefuls Newcastle United away from home. The win was their second in a row and saw them pass what appeared to be their last test against top opposition. However, Brighton doesn’t come easy these days, as the Seagulls have morphed into a solid opposition under Roberto De Zerbi. They are currently chasing a role six finish and come into this tie with the chance of achieving that goal still intact despite a shocking 5-1 loss against Everton on Monday night. Read more: Everton vs Manchester City: Preview and Expert Football Prediction De Zerbi has vowed that his side will learn from that defeat and bounce back here. The Seagulls should pose a threat here, having scored in each of their last 11 PL road fixtures (W5, D3, L3). However, their mixed league record in the capital this term is worth noting (W2, D1, L3). But it is also worth noting that Brighton have won their last two H2Hs here, so the Gunners should expect another challenge as they aim to extend their six-game unbeaten PL run at the Emirates (W5, D1).  Meanwhile, Arteta’s side have scored at least three goals in their last six PL games at the Emirates, but they’ve never managed that against Brighton in the PL here (W2, D1, L2). So an over 1.5 goals game is definite.

Espanyol vs Barcelona: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Barcelona and Espanyol will renew their rivalry this Sunday when both sides meet at RCDE Stadium. Espanyol come into this fixture in desperate need of maximum points that will push them further away from the relegation zone. They sit three points ahead of the relegation zone and should be highly motivated to win here. The ignominy of rivals Barcelona being ahead by 51 points, the biggest gap in a Derbi Barceloní in the 21st century, should also trigger Luis García Fernández’s side. Read more: Bologna vs AS Roma: Preview and Expert Football Prediction But beating Barcelona hasn’t been something the White and Blues have been used to, as they are winless across 25 top-flight derbies (D7, L18), which is their worst such record against any opponent. Meanwhile, Barcelona could seal the La Liga title win at Cornella de Llobregat if they win here and Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid drop points in their respective fixtures. Yet, even though the Madrid clubs don’t drop points, Xavi’s men will be happy to take all three points and make it three wins in three league games after back-to-back wins over Real Betis (4-0) and Osasuna (1-0). The 1-0 win over Osasuna on Tuesday was Barca’s eleventh victory by that scoreline this season, equalling the record for a full top-flight campaign. Those results also played their part in Barcelona collecting a 25th La Liga clean sheet this season, the joint-most for any team in the top-five European leagues this century.  The fact that they can push their derby neighbours closer to the drop could be extra motivation to produce another defensive masterclass, although Barça have kept just one clean sheet across their last four league trips to this venue.

Everton vs Manchester City: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Everton will continue their quest for Premier League survival this Sunday when they welcome title-chasing Manchester City to Goodison Park. The hosts took a giant step toward beating relegation last Monday night with a dramatic 5-1 win over high-flying Brighton away from home. That win ended a run of 15 consecutive away games without a win for The Toffees and was also the first time Sean Dyche’s men scored five times away from home since Boxing Day 2018. Dyche will be hoping that his side’s display at the Amex is a sign of his side’s resurging, especially in attack, where they had held the record of fewest goals scored before that win.  Read more: Arsenal vs Brighton: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Goals have been tough to come at home this season for the Merseysiders, as they have scored more than once in just one PL home game. Having climbed out of relegation last Monday with two points ahead of the bottom three, they will believe more than ever that they can beat the drop. However, the visit from Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City is often a tough task for the Toffees, whose last win in this fixture was a memorable 4-0 win in 2017. City have dominated this fixture since that result, winning ten of the last 12 competitive meetings.  The visitors also come into this tie on a run of ten straight league wins, a feat they have now achieved on five occasions under Guardiola. No other manager can match that many 10+ winning streaks in Premier League history. Their 1-1 draw in Real Madrid on Tuesday means they are unbeaten in 20 competitive games, too, making them the clear favourites for a win here. Yet, their Champions League semi-final tie with Madrid on Wednesday could distract them here, as Pep Guardiola is expected to rotate his squad.Click here to get direct win predictions.

Bayern Munich vs Schalke: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Bayern Munich will continue their quest for the Bundesliga title this Saturday when they welcome a Schalke side fighting for their lives.   The hosts kept their slender one-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga table thanks to a 1-0 win over Werder Bremen last time.  With just three rounds of league action remaining, this is the tightest title race at this stage of the season since Bayern Munich were level on points with Wolfsburg back in 2008/09 before ultimately failing to lift the title. But they will hope to hang on for a record-extending 11th-straight Bundesliga crown this time. But nothing is guaranteed yet despite the odds being in their favour. But they can at least be expected to win here, given their strong record across their last 21 league games against promoted sides (W17, D3, L1). Read more: Real Madrid vs Getafe: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Yet, since Die Roten have shown vulnerability in their home games against sides ranked 14th or lower, dropping vital points in two of them (W2, D2), Schalke will be confident of leaving Allianz Arena with something. The Royal Blues have enjoyed a massive resurgence under Thomas Reis, with three victories across the past four rounds pushing them out of the bottom three places. Reis was in charge of Bochum when they beat Bayern last season, so he will be looking to cause another colossal upset and end his side’s five-game losing streak at the Allianz Arena.    Click here to get today’s football tips.

Real Madrid vs Getafe: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

After their weekend exertions in the Champions League, Real Madrid will return to La Liga action this Saturday when they host Getafe.  The hosts have not played in the league since their 2-1 loss to Real Sociedad early this month. Since then, they have beaten Osasuna 2-1 to win the Copa Del Rey before holding Manchester City 1-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu in the Champions League semi-final.  Two league losses from their last three games mean they come into this round of games sitting in third place, one point behind city rivals Atletico Madrid, who have shot themselves to the second spot with impressive results.  Read more: Bayern Munich vs Schalke: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Getafe have beaten Madrid only once across the last 18 H2Hs (W15, D2) and might struggle again here, given that their hosts have lost just once in 20 La Liga home fixtures (W14, D5). The visitors were winless in April (D2, L4) but moved to 18th position with a crucial 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo, which boosted their survival hopes.  They will enter this game (which is their third last La Liga away game of the season), having not won on the road since October (D3, L7) whilst failing to score in three of the last four (D1, L3). The visitors also haven’t won an away head-to-head meeting with Carlo Ancelotti’s side since February 2008 (L13), losing the last four of them ‘to nil’, including three with a 2-0 scoreline.

Manchester United vs Wolves: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Manchester United will continue their quest for a top-four finish this Saturday when they welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to Old Trafford.  The Red Devil’s chances of securing a top-four finish this season took a big hit last weekend as they were beaten by West Ham (1-0) away from home.  The loss was their second defeat in a row and reduced their once-healthy lead over the top four chasing sides to just one point, even though they have one game in hand.  Read more: Leeds United vs Newcastle: Preview and Expert Football Prediction That means they remain in charge of their destiny ahead of this game at home against Wolves. They will fancy their chances here given that they are currently on an unbeaten 26-game run in home matches (W22, D4), with their last home PL defeat at Old Trafford coming against Brighton on the season’s opener. Meanwhile, Wolves have won only at Old Trafford since 1980 (D3, L10). However, that sole victory came last season. Moreover, Julen Lopetegui’s side should be full of confidence after mathematically confirming their place in the Premier League next season with a huge 1-0 win over Aston Villa.  That means the visitors are just the fourth side in Premier League history to be bottom of the table at Christmas and still survive. And now, with the pressure of relegation lifted from their shoulders, Wolves can target an improvement on their rod trips as they’ve won just two of their last 21 Premier League away matches (D6, L13).  They’ll likely have to build on their poor record of one league clean sheet on the road. Meanwhile, only one of the last eight H2H meetings with Manchester United have seen both teams on the scoresheet. So, we can expect a low-scoring game at Old Trafford, with under 2.5 goals highly likely.  Click here for correct score tips daily.

MLS Picks: MONEYLINE 1.6 Odds as provided by 1XBet. Betting On Atlanta United 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: 1.6 1XBet Moneyline: Over 2.5 Atlanta’s record shows they won five games, drew three, and lost three in the 11 matches they’ve played so far in the MLS. They’re tied with Nashville with 18 points, and their focus for today’s game would be to snap the tie in their favour. If they can win against Charlotte FC, they’ll advance to third position in the Eastern Conference standings. But, the past few games have been challenging for this team. Even with a good average of 1.4 goals per game in their five most recent matches, they still can’t effectively defend their goal, with a 1.8 goals-against ratio. Probable Lineup (4-4-2): Quentin Westberg, Brooks Lennon, Miles Robinson, Juan Sanchez Purata, Andrew Gutman, Santiago Sosa, Amar Sejdic, Derrick Etienne Junior, Thiago Almada, Caleb Wile, Machop Chol. Betting On Charlotte FC 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 5.2 Charlotte is at the bottom half of the standings, placing 12th in the Conference. Just like Atlanta, this team intends to forge ahead of Toronto, Montréal, and Inter Miami, who all have 12 points. This year they’ve managed 13 goals, but allowed 21 against. They’ve conceded more goals than any other team in their own net. As guests, their numbers have been disappointing. They played five matches, with just one win and one draw, so statistics point to a loss. Although they have an average of 1.2 goals scored in their favour, they forfeited more than this. This means their average is 2.4 goals against per away game. Probable Lineup: Kristijan Kahlina, Nathan Byrne, Adilson Malanda, Jan Sobociński, Jaylin Lindsey, Ashley Westwood, Karol Świderski, Derrick Jones, Orrin McKenzie Gaines 11, Enzo Copetti, Justin Meram. Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Kristijan Kahlina; Nathan Byrne, Adilson Malanda, Jan Sobociński, Jaylin Lindsey; Ashley Westwood, Karol Świderski, Derrick Jones; Orrin McKenzie Gaines II., Enzo Copetti, Justin Meram. MatchPlug Prediction Atlanta United VS Charlotte FC won’t be a smooth ride for the visitors. Charlotte is the clear underdog in this fixture with the lowest odds of winning.  Furthermore, Atlanta has been playing well both offensively and defensively. All these factors should result in a straight victory for the guests. Final Prediction: Atlanta United Moneyline. Related Preview: MLS Matchday 12: Inter Miami VS New England Revolution Predictions

Betting On Inter Miami 1XBet Spread: -1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Over 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.61 Inter Miami is in 10th position in the Eastern Conference with 12 points, which won’t get them to the playoffs. But, they know they still have a lot of competition to play in. They enter this match fresh off a win in the US Open Cup (1-0 against Charleston Batter) and have a good streak of results. This is due to winning their last four matches, improving their performance and hoping to recreate their good form today. But, it won’t be easy because they’ll be facing a current leader in overall standings. Possible Lineup: (3-4-3): Nick Marsman, Christopher McVey, Ryan Sailor, Kamal Miller, Harvey Neville, David Ruiz, Victor Ulloa, Franco Negri, Nicolas Marcelo Stefanelli, Josef Martinez, Robert Taylor. Betting On The New England Revolution 1XBet Spread: +1.5 1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 2.64 The New England Revolution didn’t get the same fortune as Miami in this round, haven lost 0-1 to Pittsburgh in the US Open Cup. But, this poor performance shouldn’t tarnish how well they’ve been playing in the MLS. Matter of fact, they enter this competition after defeating Toronot FC 0-2 last week, New England have lost just once in their last seven road matches, and haven’t lost in two out of three games played against Inter Miami at the Lockhart Stadium. Possible Lineup: (4-3-3) Earl Edwards, Joshua Bolma, Omar Gonzalez, Christian Makoun, Ben Sweat, Justin Rennicks, Jack Panayotou, Latif Blessing, Jozy Altidore, Giacomo Vrioni, Damian Rivera. MatchPlug Prediction New England Revolution has given an excellent performance when compared to Inter Miami. They are the best too in playing on the road, winning three matches and drawing one in five games. Despite this, Inter Miami won three out of five games played on their field and is currently in good form, which must be considered, and they can compete at a top level. After considering the hosts’ good form and the guests’ consistent level of play, the match may end in a draw. Related Preview: MLS Matchday 12: Atlanta United VS Charlotte FC Predictions

Leeds United vs Newcastle: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Leeds United will continue their quest for Premier League survival this Saturday when they welcome top-four hopefuls Newcastle United to Elland Road in the early kickoff fixture of the weekend. The hosts’ desire to remain in the Premier League beyond this June remains intact despite a 2-1 loss to Manchester City in their last outing.  New manager Sam Allardyce declared after the game that he has hope, given how ‘dogged’ they performed at the Etihad.  However, the Yorkshire club welcome high-flying Newcastle to Elland Road, sitting inside the relegation zone, two points off safety with just three games to play.  Read more: Manchester United vs Wolves: Preview and Expert Football Prediction But with their relegation rivals playing later, the hosts can provisionally move above Everton to a position of relative safety if they win here. They can take heart from a goalless draw in the reverse H2H, but they have to score their first goal against Newcastle since their Saudi takeover (D1, L1) to boost their fading hopes. Meanwhile, Newcastle United will look to get back to winning ways here after suffering a rare win in their last outing against Arsenal, who beat them 2-0 at home.  That loss was just their second loss at home and greatly affected their chances of securing Champions League group-stage football for the first time since 2002/03.  Yet, their top-four destiny remains in their hand given that they remain in third spot, three points ahead of fifth-placed Liverpool, having played a game less. But they know they must win here to avoid getting caught by the high-flying Reds.  That said, playing away from home is unlikely to faze Eddie Howe’s men after they picked up 12 of the last 15 points available on the road (W4, L1). Providing a further boost to the Toons’ away form is that they’re unbeaten against every side placed ninth or worse at home (W7, D3), which includes scoring 3+ goals against four of the five lowest-ranked sides. Meanwhile, Leeds have won just one home league game as pre-match home outsiders this season (W1, D2, L4). So, this game is likely to go Newcastlee’s way.  Click here for correct score tips daily.

In recent games, they mustered one win against Minnesota United – two draws and two losses. But, they’ve fared better at home, with just one win and five draws, and haven’t lost a game yet. The average goal scored per match is 1.5, which is far better than their average when playing on the road (1.0).

João Klauss has borne the fire for the team so far, delivering five goals this season. Jared Stroud and Nicholas Gioacchini trail closely with three goals each.

Proposed Lineup (3-4-3): Roman Bürki; Jakob Nerwiński, Tim Parker, Kyle Hiebert, John Nelson, Rasmus Alm, Miguel Perez, Eduard Löwen, Jared Stroud, Indiana Vassilev, Nicholas Gioacchini.  MatchPlug Prediction Chicago Fire VS St. Louis FC face off again. Chicago is the clear favourite, especially with their last encounter, but St. Louis is one of the best teams in the MLS Western Conference; therefore they may win this game.
