Lechia is a very attacking team, with 28 games played and a total of 106 goals scored/missed in their matches, averaging almost 4 goals per game. In home games, they have scored a total of 53 goals in 14 matches. This shows their elite attacking game, but also a slightly unsuccessful defense, making it likely for both teams to score in their matches. Piast is not a particularly attacking team, but they still score/miss slightly more goals, so I believe that these averages should increase, which is why I am taking the Over.

Spoiled 6 out of 7 recent matches do not inspire confidence in the Lecce team. All the rivals have overcome it easily, and now it's Fiorentina's turn. Fiorentina is in good form and, despite dropping out of the conference league, this game would secure their spot in the league. I believe the odds are in favor of the strong Fiorentina team, and even the form of the Lecce team alone is enough to go against them.

At the moment, Palace's thoughts are probably more directed towards Europe because the security in PL is quite calm, and after a break in Italy, I think it is likely that we will see a slightly declining game curve and the opportunity to strengthen the strong West Ham team in the 2018 season. West Ham has definitely turned their fortunes recently and climbed out of the bottom three, and after a 4-0 victory over Peru, I believe they will be flying high and will take home some points from this game.

The most productive team in the league, Estoril, scored 51 goals and allowed 50 in 29 league matches. This bet is also supported by the history of 5 previous matches with all 3+ goals. This year, Estoril played very productively in 11 out of 13 matches, and their playing style is intriguing with a weak defense and a strong attacking line.

After 6 rounds, these are the two most productive teams in the league, both in the Top 4 according to the attacking rankings. Yukun's games average 4.0 goals, while away games have an average of 4.3 goals. Chengdu's games average 3.8 goals, while home games have an average of 4.3 goals, making for an exciting balance in matches between these two teams. Both teams have 3 players who are currently in the Top 6 in the league for scoring goals, and the home team has the added excitement of Brazilian players who contribute to their super attacking style of play (they have not lost a single game this season).

The clash between the teams that are currently safe from relegation, but on the edge, Valencia has 35 points, Mallorca has 34 points, which is 3 and 2 points above the relegation zone respectively. It's clear that neither team can afford to relax, as 1 tie and either team can fall into the red zone.
The battles for survival, the clashes between teams, are extremely important. As they say, these are 6 point games, because with a win, a team gets 3 points and takes away the opportunity for the opponent to get 3 points.
The referee is good - Cesar Soto Grado, especially lately he has made a name for himself. 4 of his last games ended with 6 cards, 2 of which ended with 9+ cards.
These games hold great significance for both teams and a good referee can lead to a large number of cards being shown!

The total for the competition is set at 3.5 cards, but I am taking a higher number because I believe it will increase to 3.5 before the competition. Taking it at 4.5 with such high odds offers a lot of value. Chelsea's season is close to a disaster, with their Champions League spot slipping away. If they do not start collecting points soon, they will not have a spot in the Europa League either. 9 teams are fighting for this spot, including 6th place Chelsea and 14th place Newcastle, who are separated by only 6 points. Among these 9 teams are also Brighton, who are only 1 point behind Chelsea. Both Brighton and Chelsea are aggressive teams, and this should lead to a high number of cards in the competition.

Two teams that pleasantly surprise with their current opponents are Bournemouth, who have not lost 12 consecutive games and are strongly fighting for a spot in the Europa League next season. Leeds has pulled away from the relegation zone thanks to 6 unbeaten games and on top of that, secured a spot in the FA Cup semifinals where they have decent chances against an out-of-form Chelsea side. Both teams have been looking quite impressive on the attacking end, causing discomfort for the English elite with their recent performances, and they both love to score goals. In the 22-23 season, when they played each other in the EPL, Leeds won 4-3 against Bournemouth and lost 4-1 in the reverse fixture. This season, they are both back in the EPL and their first game ended in a 2-2 draw, perfectly reflecting how evenly matched these teams are. I am once again expecting an exciting game between them, and my prediction is a 4-2 win for Bournemouth.

Both one and the other fell out of Europe and can now focus on the culmination of the Spanish league, as both have something to fight for. Barça can win the league title, while Celta is fighting with the 6th team for the 5/6 places that would secure them a spot in the Europa League or the Conference League next season. Celta's problem is that their defense has been crumbling recently, as in their last 5 games they have conceded 2+ goals 5 times, and 3+ goals in 4 of those games... and now they will face Barcelona's offense, which could easily score 5 goals in a day. Celta's advantage is their offense, which has the power to punish, while Barça's defense always gives their opponents opportunities. My prediction is a 4-2 win for Barça.
