Sunday’s MLS action heads to Saputo Stadium where CF Montreal hosts Atlanta United. Read our preview for CF Montreal vs Atlanta United. Atlanta United sit 13th in the East and have been inconsistent all year. CF Montreal, however, have endured a nightmare season so far, losing narrowly 2-1 to Puebla in their last outing and struggling to find rhythm. Betting Preview for Montreal vs Atlanta United Betting On CF Montreal Montreal have lacked consistency in both attack and defence this season. Home advantage may help, but their inability to close out tight games has been costly. Betting On Atlanta United Atlanta’s recent Leagues Cup win showed their attacking potential, with Aleksei Miranchuk getting on the scoresheet. If they can replicate that fluidity here, they could cause Montreal real problems. MatchPlug Prediction for Montreal vs Atlanta United While neither side has been consistently reliable this season, Atlanta arrived in better form and with more confidence. Montreal’s defence has been vulnerable, but Atlanta’s inconsistency away from home makes this tricky to call. Expect both teams to get on the scoresheet, with a draw the most likely outcome. Final Prediction: Both Teams to Score

Betting On Swansea Swansea ended last season in fine form under Alan Sheehan but stumbled in pre-season with three straight friendly defeats. They’ll need to rediscover that late-season spark quickly to compete at Riverside.

Football Predictions Today: Stoke City vs Derby County

Two sides that barely avoided relegation last season kick off the 2025-26 Championship campaign on Saturday, as Stoke City host Derby County at the Bet365 Stadium. We’ve got Match Plug’s betting tips, odds, and prediction for Stoke City VS Derby County. Betting Preview for Stoke City vs Derby Betting On Stoke City Stoke ended the 2024-25 season in 18th place with 51 points, just two above the drop zone. They collected only one point from their final three matches and looked in danger of relegation until other results saved them. Pre-season has been inconsistent, with two losses, one draw, and wins over Crewe and Burnley offering faint optimism. Betting On Derby County Derby finished 19th last season, one place and one point behind Stoke, but their form surged late under John Eustace. They won six and lost only two of their final 11 league matches, showing improved organization and fight. That momentum could carry over into their opener. MatchPlug Prediction For Stoke City vs Derby County Stoke’s poor end to last season and unconvincing summer form leave them vulnerable, while Derby enter with renewed belief under Eustace. The Rams’ stubborn play and recent winning habit make them strong contenders to grab three points at the Bet365 Stadium. Final Prediction: Derby County Moneyline

Defending MLS Cup champions LA Galaxy delivered a powerful statement in their 2025 Leagues Cup opener, routing Club Tijuana 5-2 on Thursday night at Dignity Health Sports Park.

Joseph Paintsil led the charge with two goals and an assist, while Gabriel Pec, Marco Reus, and Matheus Nascimento also got on the scoresheet. Nascimento added an assist in the convincing win. “This game was really important because, as you know, our season wasn’t good,” Paintsil told Apple TV. “This was important for us to take the three points.” Veteran midfielder Diego Fagúndez echoed the sentiment: “When this team scores goals, we can win games.” The result sends a clear message; the Galaxy aren’t done yet.

Diego Rossi helps Columbus Crew keep Leagues Cup title defense alive

The reigning Leagues Cup champions came up wiuth the response they needed thanks to Diego Rossi After a dramatic shootout loss to Toluca on Tuesday, the Columbus Crew, came out with a purpose in Friday’s 3-1 victory over Puebla. The three points keep the Crew alive in the tight standings race as they look to escape Phase One and defend their 2024 title. “We stayed on task and did well,” head coach Wilfried Nancy said after the game. “We wanted to get better in certain things, try to score more goals and also defend better. “I really liked the energy that we had and that’s why we did what we did tonight.” It was a crucial bounce-back result for the Crew, who had to settle for one point in their Phase One opener – a game in which they blew a 2-0 lead before falling 4-2 in the decisive penalty shootout. Star forward Diego Rossi had a pair of missed penalty kicks in that match — one with just two minutes left in regulation and the other in the shootout. But the Uruguayan atoned in a big way Friday, notching a goal and an assist. His 16th-minute tally moved Rossi into a tie for third in all-time Leagues Cup goals (eight). “He was so sad after the last game,” Nancy said of Diego Rossi. “For me, I don’t believe in luck. He has the best work ethic on the team. I’m really happy for him because he deserved it tonight.” As a squad, the Crew played their best at the right time following Tuesday’s disappointing loss. Nancy noted they were able to match Puebla’s fitness and intensity.

Txiki Begiristain Leaves Man City After 13 Years

Manchester City have confirmed the departure of Director of Football Txiki Begiristain after 13 years at the club. He will be replaced by Sporting CP’s Hugo Viana. Begiristain leaves following a disappointing 2024–25 campaign in which City finished the season without a trophy. His exit also comes as the club continues to face over 100 charges for alleged breaches of Premier League financial rules. The former Barcelona executive was instrumental in shaping City’s recent success, having played a key role in bringing Pep Guardiola to the Etihad in 2016. The pair were teammates at Barcelona and maintained a close working relationship throughout their time in Manchester. “Everyone at Manchester City would like to thank Txiki for everything that he has achieved during his time at the Club, and we look forward to paying tribute to his outstanding contribution in September,” the club said in a statement. Begiristain previously held the same role at Barcelona from 2003 to 2010, where he also oversaw Guardiola’s appointment as head coach in 2008. In a farewell chat with City Studios, Begiristain said:“I told (Man City CEO) Ferran (Soriano), ‘I’ll handle Pep’s transition for you.’ And then you renewed for two more years. When you renewed the last time (in November last year), I said, ‘Ferran, I can’t do this anymore.’”

Real Madrid Denied LaLiga Postponement Request by RFEF

Real Madrid’s bid to delay the start of their LaLiga season has been rejected by Spain’s football federation (RFEF), according to local media reports. The club had asked to postpone their August 19 home opener against Osasuna, citing limited recovery time after their Club World Cup run in the United States, where they lost to PSG in the semifinals on July 9. However, an RFEF judge ruled the request did not meet the criteria for a schedule change, stating that only force majeure could justify altering the official calendar. “Finally, it should be added that although the requesting club claims to have the agreement of the opposing party, CA Osasuna, there is no record of this entity having responded to the request made by this judge,” the ruling stated.

Crystal Palace reject £30m Atalanta bid for striker Mateta

Crystal Palace have turned down a £30 million offer from Atalanta for striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, according to BBC reports. The 28-year-old forward, Mateta who has two years left on his current deal, has been in strong form, prompting interest from the Serie A club. Palace quickly rejected the approach, and it remains unclear if they would consider a higher bid. Atalanta are actively searching for a new striker after selling last season’s Serie A top scorer Mateo Retegui to Saudi club Al-Qadsiah for £56 million. Other forwards on Atalanta’s radar include Fulham’s Rodrigo Muniz, Lecce’s Nikola Krstovic, and Genk’s Tolu Arokodare.
