Football

Friendly Unity. They are not very productive in their leagues, therefore their coefficient is not too bad, but in friendly matches they often show a different side, which is typical for Austrian clubs during the winter break or offseason. They can both score and concede, and matches often end in a high score. I hope for something similar this evening.

Friendly Switzerland. Xamax demonstrates a good, productive football during the winter break, both the first team and reserves are in good form, scoring a lot and winning. On Sunday, the official competitions begin, so I believe their momentum won't be lost. Today, the opponent is also favorable - from a lower league, and they also play attacking football, so it is likely that their successful streak will continue.

The Galatasaray team has a favorable set-up, especially in the attacking line. However, their strong offense often turns into defensive problems, and if they fail to take advantage of opportunities, their opponents may take advantage. While Atletico may not be one of those teams that play open football, they are always able to exploit gaps in the opponent's defense. The Turkish team will allow them to create opportunities, but I don't see them being able to withstand Galatasaray's attack.

Just 2 goals in the Champions League and even 11 conceded, show that Barcelona must take care of one of the weakest teams. Slavia still doesn't have official matches, so the Spanish club must win and do it confidently. The Barcelona club, with an 11-game streak, is in excellent form and has won 9 matches with a gap of two or more. Barcai's life in the Champions League this year is not easy, so being in 15th place, the club cannot afford to lose points.

Only 2 goals scored in the Champions League and 11 conceded show that Barcelona must deal with one of the weakest teams. Slavia doesn't even have official matches yet, so the Spanish club must win and do so confidently. Barcelona, which has an 11-game winning streak, is in great form and has won 9 matches by two or more points. Life in the Champions League is not easy for Barca this year, so the 15th place team cannot afford to lose over points.

Newcastle is playing great football at home and in attack they look fantastic on their own stadium. The defense is not the best when faced with constant attacks, as they conceded 3 goals to Leeds, but they know how to create opportunities and I have no doubt they will do the same against tonight's opponent. PSV is an offensive team and can surprise, as they did against Liverpool, but it is clear that they will not sit back and will also attack. In this type of football, goals can flow freely.

The Betis club, undefeated in any match in Europe, should continue their successful streak. The opponent is interesting, but by no means an equal competitor to the Spanish club. Betis displays a very strong defense and fights for first place, and even in this season having lost only 4 games shows that Betis will not be defeated.

Recently, Porto has been appearing very strong in all championships and looks quite successful. Their long and excellent series in Peru, as well as their almost perfect defense, shows that the Portuguese team is in top form. Like many other teams, Plzen has not played official matches for a long time and cannot substitute them with friendlies, so Porto's match with Peru seems like a very logical option.
