Another match from the Polish League, 2nd league Slask hosts Rakow club and I am going with Over. Although there is a difference in points, the hosts should put up a good fight or at least cause some problems in the attack as they have scored a lot of goals, 33 in 18 matches, which shows that the team has a strong offense. I don't think they will be daunted even against a stronger club, but their defense, even in the 2nd league, is tragic, conceding 2 goals per match. And since Rakow plays a very hot football lately, scoring 13 goals in the last 4 matches, including 3 where they scored 4 goals, it is possible that they alone can cover the total or score at least 3 goals.

After losing points here to Real, it is possible to take a few steps back in the fight for the title. I talk a lot about Real, the players, and Xabi Alonso, but after three draws in a row, the confidence in Alonso from the management still remains. It's time for that confidence to be shown by both the coach and the players. On paper, Bilbao is a solid club, but this season they have not found their game at all. Real may not have the best defense, but they have a solid attack. Bilbao struggles to score goals, so this should be a somewhat easier game defensively for Real.

Stellenbosch FC returned to South Africa on Monday without rest after their CAF Confederation Cup Group C match in Tanzania. The team was quickly back on home soil, facing a significant challenge in the Betway Premiership against seventh-placed Polokwane City. This midweek clash carries additional significance for Stellenbosch, as it represents their final league match of the season before the Africa Cup of Nations break. Buoyed by recent performances and eager to avoid the lower ranks of the table, the Cape Winelands side sees this match not just as another game, but as a crucial opportunity to end the year on a positive note. The home side has a noticeably higher market value, 11,00 mln vs. 4,10 mln. Polokwane does not fare well away from home. I see Stellies winning this match with possible results of 1-0 or 2-0.gl

Arsenal should have no problems taking all 3 points here, as the league leaders who have only lost once at home this season against City have dominated all clubs and Ghana has plenty of elite level clubs that the Gunners have already defeated in the Emirates. Now they face Brentford, a team that cannot offer much here, only average in the league, their success depending on a strong home game, but only managing to take 3 points in 6 away games.

Two interesting teams playing very effective football. The stronger and champion Sturm team plays tragically at home in this season, with even 10 goals conceded in 5 league matches. I think a fierce and productive match is ahead.

Brighton at home is a tough nut to crack for all English clubs, and their home stadium team has yet to be defeated this season. They play an entertaining style of football with a strong attacking force, and have the right players for that. This season they have only failed to score 2 or more goals at home once. Villa has caught a fantastic form and is coming to fight for victory. It's hard to imagine any team being able to win here without conceding a goal.

Brighton is a very good team, they haven't lost a match at home against anyone in over half a year. Even though Aston Villa has won 5 in a row, their game is not strong. Almost all of the goals scored are from set pieces and they don't create many opportunities. In the last round against Wolves, they could have been down 2-0 after the first period, but luck was on their side and they managed to score a long-range goal. I don't think that they can continue to be successful playing like this, as luck can only take you so far. Consistency should turn in their favor and the team that plays better should win today.

After the change of coach, Forest started showing some signs of recovery and in order to stay in the league this season, it is necessary to take points against the worst team, which hasn't improved its level in the EPL. Wolves have lost 7 consecutive games, without a single win in the Premier League this season. They have 2 draws and 11 defeats. They have scored only 7 goals, while conceding 28. It's obvious that they are an easy target for everyone and points must be taken here.

The form of the Arsenal home is really good. 5W-1D-0L. Man city 1-1. GD 16:2. Not counting such matches as 3;1 against Bayern or 4;0 against Atletico. Brentford is a mid-range team in the PL, with victories against bottom 10 teams. Away form: 1W 0D 5L 6:12. They have Henderson, a Liverpool legend, and Thiago with 11 goals. Arsenal also has the defensive duo Saliba and Gabriel.

Arsenal has started this season well. In 13 games, they have earned 9 wins and scored 25 goals. Currently, they are only two points behind second place. A win today would increase the lead to 5 points. Arsenal plays confidently at home and often scores multiple goals. They have won 7 games in a row at home in all tournaments. Their current form is also good, so they should be able to handle Brentford. Brentford plays with a lot of energy. They often concede goals, but sometimes they can win games by scoring a lot. They also struggle on away games. In their last 6 away games, they suffered 5 losses. Arsenal should be able to score at least one goal today.

After a very successful match against Bayern in the Bundesliga championship, it is now time for these teams to determine who is stronger in the cup. Union led at home twice, but Bayern cannot afford to play such poor matches for the second time. Bayern, who created opportunities and had 74% possession, must crush their opponents, who as I see it were like a stick once shot.

Celtic currently has 4 wins in a row. They are also close to reaching the top. Today, they will again play at home for the third time in a row, including in the European League. Their form is slowly getting back on track. At home, Celtic plays quite well, and they have scored a lot of goals for their fans. Plus, today is a great opportunity for revenge, as they had lost 2:0 to the same Dundee FC. They should have the desire to defeat their opponents today. Dundee's form is not great, as they have let in quite a few goals, with only 3 wins in 14 matches. They have not scored any wins in 7 away matches. They are a weak team. Celtic should take care of business today by scoring more than one goal.

Celtic currently have 4 consecutive wins. They seem to be returning to the top. Today, they will play at home for the third time in a row, including in the Europa League. Their form is gradually improving. Celtic plays well at home and scores quite a few goals for their fans. In addition, today is a great chance for revenge, as they previously lost 2:0 to the same Dundee FC. They shouldn't lack motivation today to defeat their opponents. Dundee's form is not great, they have conceded quite a few goals, only 3 in 14 rounds. In their away games, they have not scored any goals in 7 rounds. They are a weak team. Today, Celtic should take care of business and score at least one goal, possibly in the first half.

We will take Overi here, Chelsea plays very productively in away games this season with 14 scored goals in the PL from 6 played away matches and I think their form should be tested against Leeds, especially with the addition of Palmer back in the lineup who should get his time in this match. Leeds have conceded 3 goals in away matches in the PL, although they have a solid defense at home, their opponents have been relatively favorable so far, they only had to play against stronger teams like Aston Villa and Tottenham and both of them scored 2 goals on their own pitch. Chelsea, without Caicedo due to suspension, may also make it easier for Leeds to play football and I believe they will have their chances here as well. I predict a 1-2/1-3 score here.

After almost scoring two goals, Chelsea's ability to score goals seems to be heavily underestimated according to the given coefficient. Leeds, demonstrating a very weak form, has a series of four losses and has conceded three goals in three of those matches and two goals in one. In this Premier League season, in eight lost matches, Leeds has only once not conceded two goals, and in eleven matches, they have conceded the ball from their own goal line twice or more. Chelsea rightfully stands high in the league and must defeat Leeds with good gameplay.

After a very solid match away against West Ham, Liverpool returns to Anfield and memories of their last match against PSV where they suffered a devastating loss come flooding back. Liverpool is struggling in defense, and their team is highly dependent on their offense, which has not been producing strong results at the beginning of the season. Their opponent, who has proven to be a challenge for many top English teams, has scored numerous goals against them. Liverpool may concede a few goals in this match, but their defense remains vulnerable.

It seems that Liverpool will once again bring Salah back into the starting lineup and they don't promise anything good for them. The Reds have had a poor season and that's it. Sunderland is a team that plays defensively, but today they will have to attack, as there is so much talent in Liverpool that they must score something, especially at Anfield. But their defense is shaky and strong. The attacking line doesn't put enough pressure, so Sunderland will definitely have a chance. Recently, Liverpool lost 4 against PSV, 3 against Nottingham. Man City, Brentford and Crystal Palace also scored 3 goals each. Their defense is completely non-existent, and when the stars in the attack don't shine, it will be difficult.

Many say that Liverpool is showing signs of recovery, and Peru is known for giving those three points, but to me it doesn't seem like Liverpool has returned to their winning team form yet. West Ham lost because they played worse than Liverpool. What I saw on the field did not convince me, there was a lot of back and forth and in the end, they were lucky to score goals, but somehow the rhythm of Liverpool still makes me worry. The drama with the changes, now who will play with whom, all this unnecessary extra commotion. Liverpool also has problems in defense, the current goal differential is a pretty round 0.

We can only hope that Sunderland will endure, their average of conceding 1 goal per game, no new injuries, and after 13 rounds they are still firmly in the top half of the table.

Chelsea are simply the favorites, although sometimes their attacking may seem too slow on away matches, but Chelsea just need to gather points against such teams in order to fight for top 4 and to say nothing about higher goals. Delap is already not the first time in front, and Estevao, even though a young Brazilian with potential, has recently been scoring quite often.

The home team is unbeaten in their last four league matches with three wins and a draw, while the visitors have failed to win any of their last seven league games, including six defeats. After finishing the previous season with the Scottish FA Cup victory over Celtic, Aberdeen would have hoped to build on that triumph this season. However, the Dons have had an extremely disappointing start to the season, winning only one of their first 11 matches in all competitions – a 3-0 win against lower-division team Greenock Morton in the second round of the Scottish League Cup. Jimmy Thelin's side recorded five wins, one draw, and one loss in the league during that period, along with one loss in the Conference League and two draws. This run of results has brought Aberdeen up to 7th place in the Scottish Premiership table with 17 points from 13 matches., leaving them just three points behind Falkirk, 6th in the standings, who have played one more match than the Dons. Consequently, Thelin will be eager to see his team maintain the pace and close the gap to the top six by securing all three points on Wednesday night. While Aberdeen's form has improved significantly, St Mirren's has taken a downturn, leaving the Dons as clear favorites to take all three points. The home side's value will be significantly higher than their opponents, with 22,20 mln vs €6,98 mln in market value, as they play a home stadium challenge with the support of their fans. The Dons will be favored going into this match, given their recent form improvement and St Mirren's ongoing struggles. I expect a home win. gl

After playing in the Serie A at home against Peru, the Milan team is playing away against Lazio. This season, Milan is only playing in Italy, which allows the team to prepare perfectly for every match and show excellent results. With only 1 loss and that being in the first Serie A round, it is hoped that Milan will continue to Draw no Bet.
