First meets last in the final game of the 2022/23 season when Napoli meets Sampdoria at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples on Sunday.
Napoli are in a festive mood after securing the Scudetto a month ago-their first top-flight title since 1989/90. They will be presented with the trophy at the end of this game, so they will be hoping for an accompanying win to commemorate the occasion.
However, the hosts have faltered since claiming the title early last month (W2, D1, L1). But with this being his last game as Napoli boss, departing manager Luciano Spalletti will hope for one last victorious hurrah before a packed Stadio Diego Armando Maradona before taking a well-deserved sabbatical.
Napoli will fancy their chances of winning this game h given that they have never lost a home league H2H against rock-bottom and relegated Sampdoria since the turn of the century (W12, D2).
The visitors come into this game sitting a whopping 68 points behind the new champions. So it will be a miracle for them to get a win here.
Sampdoria’s measly haul of 19 points represents their poorest-ever top-flight showing. This terrible statistic has been influenced by their worst-ever tally of 24 Serie A defeats in a single campaign.
They also come into this tie without a win in eleven games (D2, L9), so it seems unlikely they will get a good result here.
The 2022/23 ends this weekend, with Real Madrid hosting Athletic Bilbao.
After missing out on the title to their fierce rivals Barcelona, Real Madrid are now only playing to finish ahead of Atlético Madrid, with both teams competing for second position.
After coming back from a one-nil deficit to win their last game against Sevilla 2-1, they need to win here to finish directly behind Barca. However, they could also finish second even if they lose this game if their city rivals Atlético drop points against Villarreal to secure second place following their 2-1 comeback win over Sevilla last Saturday.
However, under pressure, manager Carlo Ancelotti will want his side to win and make it five wins in five league games at home.
Meanwhile, Athletic Bilbao will be desperate to end a run of 15 games without a win against Real Madrid in all competitions (D4, L11). Also, the last time Ernesto Valverde’s side triumphed against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu in Spain’s top flight was ten years (D2, L15 since).
So getting three points here is a tall order for the Basque side, who are also winless in their last three away league games (D1, L2).
But given that they are still fighting for a place in Europe next season, they will come into this game desperate to win. The visitors can finish in the top seven and qualify for the Conference League if they can better Osasuna’s result and at least match Girona’s result, with those two sides coincidentally facing each other this weekend.
Meanwhile, Athletic have lost each of their last six La Liga final-day fixtures – and the last five of them ‘to nil’.
Minnesota United goes home after visiting Austin on Wednesday. Last weekend, they played a home game and mustered a 1-1 draw against Real Salt Lake, putting it in 6th position in the Western Conference with 19 points.
As the guests and the team with better performance, Minnesota is the clear favourite for this match.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Dayne St. Clair; D.J. Taylor, Miguel Tapias, Michael Boxall, Kemar Lawrence; Will Trapp, Hassani Dotson; Joseph Rosales, Bongokuhle Hlongwane, Franco Fragapane; Luis Amarilla.

Toronto FC has just 3 wins and 16 points, they are presently in the second-to-last position in the Eastern Conference.
But, they managed to secure one of those three victories last weekend by winning DC United 2-1 at home with Deandre Kerr and Kosi Thompson scoring goals.
Possible lineup: Richie Laryea, Matt Hedges, Aimé Mabika, Kobe Franklin; Mark-Anthony Kaye, Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty, Brandon Servania; Lorenzo Insigne, Deandre Kerr, C.J. Sapong.
MatchPlug Prediction
Today’s match between Minnesota and Toronto could be thrilling and highly competitive, despite the point differential. It is worth considering that these clubs have scored almost the same number of goals for and against, so, the final margin of victory could be small.
Minnesota has been a bit more consistent than Toronto, and with them having a home-field advantage, that may be enough for them to come out on top. They should win but by a small margin.
The game between Columbus Crew VS Charlotte FC promises to be an exciting one. Both clubs are in a competitive position in the standings, which means the match will have a lot of tension.
What can you expect from this fixture? How will both teams perform in this match? Which side will come out on top?
You’ll get the answers to these questions in this preview by MatchPlug, as we discuss the performance of each team, stats, and factors that may influence the game.
Columbus Crew has just secured a significant win in the MLS against the Colorado Rapids. It was a high-scoring match with a final result of 3-2. They started with a deficit, but rapidly turned the game around with goals scored by Lucas Zelarayán, Cucho Hernández, and Sean Zawadzki.
But, today’s game will be challenging for Columbus because Charlotte is only a spot below it in the standings and has almost the same results.
Luckily, the Crew has a home-field advantage. The numbers speak for themselves, as the team has gotten great results in 8 home matches, recording just one loss, five victories, and two draws. Columbus has a high scoring rate at home, averaging 2.62 goals per match.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): Patrick Schulte; Steven Moreira, Malte Amundsen, Exon Gustavo, Vallecilla, Mohammed Farsi; Philip Quinton, Darlington Nagbe, Lucas Zelarayan, Aidan Morris; Cucho Hernandez, Yaw Yeboah.
Betting On Charlotte FC
1XBet Spread: +1.5
1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5
1XBet Moneyline: 5.05
Charlotte FC has played one more match than Columbus so far in the MLS. In the last game, it was defeated by the Philadelphia Union, which is way ahead of it in the Eastern Conference standings.
But, they displayed a great performance against Crew and Atlanta United. They got a 1-3 win on the road, with Justin Meram and Karol Świderski scoring goals. This indicates that they have good chances against the guests.
On the road, Charlotte has been able to get good results just like at home. Matter of fact, the gaps between those results are not too much. The biggest challenge for this team is its defensive performance, as it has given up more goals than scored.
Possible lineup (3-4-3): Kristijan Kahlina, Adilson Malanda, Bill Tuiloma, Harrison Afful; Nathan Byrne, Brandt Bronico, Derrick Jones, Ashley Westwood, Justin Meram, Karol Świderski, Kerwin Calderon.
MatchPlug Prediction
Today’s match between Columbus and Charlotte will be between two closely-ranked teams in the Eastern Conference. It is looking like a high-scoring game that may end in a draw, as their recent records show how they can swing to the extreme.
Both clubs have players who score easily, and their scoring history is a key factor. The Crew has fantastic performances at home, while Charlotte struggles to match. Additionally, they haven’t scored above one goal when playing on the road. Which is why experts predict a home win.

Predictions and Betting Preview for New York City VS New England Revolution Matchday 17
Venue: Yankee Stadium, Bronx, New York
When: Saturday, June 3rd, 2023
Time: 12:30 GMT
Teams to play: New York City and New England Revolution.
New York City FC hasn’t played very well during the season as they are saddled with poor results. They’ve only been able to gather 16 out of 45 points and are second to last in the Eastern Conference standings.
Unfortunately, their performance is nowhere near improving as they have played 6 games without a win, with 5 losses and 1 draw. To make matters worse, their last match was a challenging 1-3 loss against Cincinnati FC.
Additionally, New York has forfeited at least one goal in their past 12 consecutive matches. This is bad for their fans, particularly now they will be up against one of the league’s strongest operating teams. Their current predicament won’t be changing anytime soon.
Possible Lineup (3-4-1-2): Matt Freese; Tayvon Gray, Maxime Chanot, José Alfaro, Stephen Turnbull, James Sands, Keaton Parks, Braian Cufré, Santiago Rodríguez, Gabriel Pereira, Gabriel Segal.
Betting On New England Revolution
1XBet Spread: +1.5
1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5
1XBet Moneyline: 3.28
The New England Revolution began the season on the right foot, allowing them to advance in the rankings. But, their recent disappointing records may now be damping their winning streak as they are currently in 4th position with 26 points.
In the past 4 games, they haven’t won anything, getting just two victories and two draws. Matter of fact, they enter today’s game after two successive ties against the Chicago Fire and Atlanta United, both with a score of 3-3.
Possible Lineup: (4-2-3-1): Dorde Petrović, Brandon Bye, Andrew Farrell, Dave Romney, DeJuan Jones; Matt Polster, Noel Buck; Esmir Bajraktarevic, Charles Gil, Emmanuel Boateng; Bobby Wood.
MatchPlug Prediction
Despite a sharp contrast in the rankings, this game will be a clash between two clubs that have the same present and a challenge securing wins.
One thing to consider is that both sides have been trendsetters in opening up the scoreboard in their respective matches. So, today’s matchup will be about keeping this momentum, so you can leverage it.
Considering this record and everything analyzed for the New York City FC VS New England Revolution game, experts predict that the visiting team will assert dominance and go back to winning.
Inter Milan will wrap up the Serie A season this weekend with a visit to Stadio Olimpico di Torino to face Torino.
The hosts ended their away Serie A campaign with a scintillating 4-0 win over Spezia last Saturday.
Although the victory was soiled by racist abuse directed towards their coach Ivan Jurić with play even halted before half-time, they will still be happy that they were able to win their fourth straight away league match without conceding in a single top-flight campaign for the first time since 1942/43.
However, Il Toro is surprisingly amid a six-game winless run at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino (D3, L3). It’s, therefore, unsurprising that their relatively poor home form has been behind their failure to break into the top seven this season.
The hosts might therefore have to improve on their starts if they want to end their season on a high, as five of their last six home matches saw them concede the opening goal, with three conceded within the first ten minutes.
Meanwhile, Inter Milan will travel to Turin in a confident mood after a 3-2 win over Atalanta confirmed they’ll finish in the Serie A top four.
That win also extended their imperious form, as it was their tenth victory in eleven matches (L1). That run was part of what landed the Nerazzurri the Coppa Italia Cup win and a place in the UEFA Champions League final against Manchester City.
With that huge occasion in Istanbul looming, coach Simone Inzaghi hinted at squad rotation after speaking about his staff doing “well in managing the playing time” after the win against Atalanta.
Meanwhile, they have a chance to extend a seven-game unbeaten H2H run (W6, D1) and also end their league campaign on a high.
Inter have won their last six league season finales averaging 3.33 goals per game, and a repeat could make it an entertaining trip for the fans. An over 2.5 goals game is, therefore, likely.
Paris Saint-Germain will wrap up the 2022/23 Ligue 1 season this weekend when they host Clermont Foot at Parc des Princes on Saturday.
The hosts sealed the title last weekend despite being held to a 1-1 draw with Strasbourg away from home.
As such, head coach Christophe Galtier is still likely to lose his job at the end of this season, with PSG chiefs considering him not fit enough to lead the team to the glorious destiny they seek.
But the French coach claimed publicly after their last game that he “deserves a second season.” Therefore he will be looking to sign off this season on a high note.
However, his side have been erratic at home this season, though, and have lost three of their last five games here, although it would be a huge surprise if they can’t produce the goods to give departing Lionel Messi the send-off he deserves.
Meanwhile, Clermont Foot will head to Paris in a buoyant mood after a 2-0 victory over Lorient last weekend secured a top-half finish in Ligue 1 for the first time.
Such a remarkable season has led to their coach Pascal Gastien being nominated for the Manager of the Year award in France. The Frenchman has admitted it has been a season to “savour”, stating he is “proud of the work accomplished.”
He will now be hoping to sign off for this season on a high as Clermont looks to extend a stunning finish to the campaign, which has seen them register seven wins in nine outings (D1, L1).
However, the visitors have lost their last three league H2Hs, conceding at least four goals on each occasion.

The 2022/23 FA Cup season will end this Saturday when Manchester City and Manchester United face off at Wembley for the first time in the competition’s long and storied history.
Pep Guardiola’s are looking to record their second title this season on their way to a treble after winning this campaign’s Premier League title.
City booked their place in this final round thanks to a 3-0 win over Sheffield United at the Etihad. The PL champions have scored 17 goals without reply in their five previous FA Cup ties this term, so they will come into this tie as favourites.
Five wins from the last ten meetings between both sides (L4) also put them ahead in the recent head-to-head record. However, having failed to win any of their last two games of the season, they come into this tie short of momentum.
Manager Guardiola has asked his squad to “disconnect” in the build-up to this huge clash. Since his move to the Etihad, his side have recorded a 100% win rate in domestic finals, so they’ll be confident of winning their second trophy this season.
Meanwhile, Manchester United will be looking to also win their second title this season, having already won the Carabao Cup in February.
Erik ten Hag’s side beat Newcastle at Wembley to clinch the trophy, so they will be confident here given their experience on this ground. A run of four consecutive wins also puts them ahead on the momentum scale.
But having not won an FA Cup title in 19 years, they seem to lack adequate experience in this competition. Yet, only Arsenal (14) have won more FA Cup titles than Man United (12).
Meanwhile, just one of the last 15 H2H meetings ended level after 90 minutes (City: W8, L6). Therefore, we can expect goals in this game.
Lens will look to end their Ligue 1 season on a high when they travel to Stade de l’Abbé-Deschamps to face a relegation-threatened Auxerre side.
The hosts boosted their chances of playing top-flight football last time with a 1-1 draw with Toulouse. The draw lifted them two points above the bottom four.
However, their inferior goal difference means they must match or better Nantes’ final-day result to avoid being relegated to Ligue 2.
However, they come into this game in poor shape, having not won any of their last six league games (D3, L3). Therefore, victory will be their target as it’s the only way to guarantee no immediate return to Ligue 2 regardless of results elsewhere.
Meanwhile, Lens will look to end a successful season on a high note when they take on Auxerre.
The visitors have been Ligue 1’s surprise side this season, with the 81 points they have gathered this season only bettered by Ligue 1 winner PSG (85) ahead of this final round.
Although their unexpected title challenge finally ended last week, they come into this tie on the back of six consecutive Ligue 1 victories.
Meanwhile, their 3-0 dismantling of Ajaccio guaranteed second place and UEFA Champions League football for the first time since 2002/03. That marks a stunning rise for Franck Haise’s side, who were in Ligue 2 alongside Auxerre as recently as 2019/20.
Although Lens now have nothing to play for in this round, they’ll want to produce one more impressive performance to close out the season in style, looking to record three straight top-flight away wins for the first time since September 2021.
The 2022/23 Europa League season ends this Wednesday with the competition’s record holders Sevilla facing Italian side AS Roma.
Sevilla come into this game looking to extend their incredible record in the tournament. The Spanish side have won the Europa League six times, which is the most for any club.
The Andalusian side booked their place in the final thanks to a 3-2 aggregate win over Juventus. However, they are travelling to Budapest in bad form, with no win in their last four games (D3, L1).
However, the loss in that sequence came in their last game– a 2-1 loss to Real Madrid in La Liga. But José Luis Mendilibar made many changes for that game against Madrid, so his boys should be physically and mentally fresh for their visit to Budapest.
Yet, the fact is that Sevilla haven’t won any of their four UEL away games this season (D2, L2). Furthermore, they are winless in 13 games outside of Spain in European competition, which makes lifting another UEL trophy here far from straightforward.
Meanwhile, Roma and Jose Mourinho will look to continue his impressive record in finals when he takes his side to Budapest on Wednesday.
The Portuguese manager has never lost a final and will look to build on his achievement of winning the Europa Conference League with Roma last season.
But like Sevilla, the Giallorossi fell to a 2-1 defeat against Fiorentina in Serie A at the weekend. That loss means that Roma are on the verge of missing out on the Europa League as they sit in sixth position. This makes winning this trophy even more important as it would give them a free pass to the Champions League next season.
Roma are without a win in four games (D3, L1) and are also winless in their last four Europa League games held outside of Italy (D2, L2).
However, Mourinho knows how to lift trophies and will bank on them to deliver at Budapest. He will be desperate here, too, as winking will make him the most decorated manager in the history of major European competition.
Meanwhile, the previous 13 UEL finals have seen an average of 2.92 goals per game. So we can expect over 2.5 goals in this game.
