19:45 Brackley v Needham Market
Needham Market
Needham Market has 25 points in the league after 28 games (6W, 7D, 15L). Technically, Needham would not accept a defeat. A win here would propel them out of the relegation, with a game in hand compared to Rushall. I view it as a golden opportunity with a calculated move to get a win for the guests. NB: Most of Needham's points (16 points) have come from away matches this season.
19:45 Scarborough Athletic v Radcliffe FC
Radcliffe FC
Radcliffe has lost only 3 in the last 10 away games (3W, 4D, 3L). Scarborough has lost 5 of their recent home matches (2W, 3D, 5L). I think Radcliffe can get 3 points here.
19:30 FC Sion v Servette
FC Sion
Sion has won 2 of the last 5 home league matches (2W, 1D, 2L). Servette has now gone 4 away league matches without a win, having lost 3 (1D, 3L). Sion can seize this home advantage to get 3 points. A comfortable win for the hosts is a valuable bet.
19:30 Grasshoppers v Lausanne Sports
Grasshoppers
Grasshoppers remain undefeated in their last six matches (3 wins, 3 draws). They have also secured victories in 3 of their last 4 home encounters in the league against Lausanne. Meanwhile, Lausanne hasn't triumphed in their last three league games (2 draws, 1 loss). I think Grasshoppers presents a good chance for a win as they aim for their second home victory this season, especially considering their poor home record (1 win, 6 draws, 3 losses).
18:30 Dinamo Bucharest v Otelul Galati
Otelul Galati
50 WIN
@5.00
Lose
-50
Otelul has won 2 of the last four league games against Dinamo Bucharest (2W, 1D, 1L). Dinamo Bucharest has won 1 of the last 7 games (1W, 5D, 1L). I will wager a win for Otelul Galati, who is under pressure to reduce the 7-point gap and get a better ranking.
16:00 Rapid Bucuresti v FC Unirea 2004 Slobozia
FC Unirea 2004 Slobozia
53 WIN
@9.00
Lose
-53
Unirea 2004 Slobozia has won three of the last six encounters, losing once to Rapid Bucuresti (3W, 2D, 1L). However, after losing three of the previous four league matches, Unirea is under a lot of pressure and must step up in this game. Rapid Bucuresti is 10 points ahead, and Unirea will be here to reduce that gap.
14:00 Gloria Buzau v FC Botosani
Over 2.50
Total Goals

@2.25
Lose
-70
Gloria Buzau has won 4 of the last 6 matches and has been good offensively, netting a total of 11 goals in those wins. Botosani travels with hopes of securing a win, as they have previously done. But I think this match will be an open affair for both sides. I would settle for goals. Over 2.5 goals.

20:45 Rio Ave v FC Porto
Rio Ave
Rio Ave has won 4 and lost 1 in 9 home league matches this season (4W, 4D, 1L). They welcome Porto, who has lost 4 of the last 6 competitive games recently (1W, 1D, 4L). Rio Ave will be a great value for a win here.
20:00 Chelsea v West Ham
West Ham
West Ham is still working to find its rhythm under Graham Potter, who is now in his fifth match as head coach. The team holds onto hope for a win, especially after losing two of their last four games with Potter at the helm. Returning to Stamford Bridge reminds me of the circumstances surrounding his departure from the club, making today a day for revenge. With Chelsea experiencing mixed results (4 wins, 3 draws, 3 losses), it seems the pressure is more on the Hammers to secure a victory.
19:00 De Graafschap v ADO Den Haag
ADO Den Haag
ADO Den Haag is currently in strong form, having won 4 of their last 5 league matches. They have also been successful in recent encounters against De Graafschap, securing 3 victories in their last 6 meetings. Both teams are tied on 37 points, but Den Haag appears to be performing better lately. De Graafschap has experienced 4 defeats in their last 10 matches, achieving 4 wins, whereas Den Haag has recorded 6 victories in the same number of games. Given these statistics, a win for the guests seems likely.
18:45 Moreirense v Braga
Braga
Braga has won 13 of the last 15 encounters against Moreirense. With the poor form striking the host (3D, 4L) in the last 7 matches, there is a very big chance for Braga to win here, having won 6 of the last 10 games and lost 3. Braga should win this very comfortably.
17:00 Sigma Olomouc v Viktoria Plzen
Viktoria Plzen
55 WIN
@1.70
Lose
-55
Viktoria Plzen is a frequent visitor to Andruv Stadion and has been very good since late 2011. Plzen has not lost a game against Sigma Olomouc at this venue, winning 9 and drawing 4 times (9W, 4D). Plzen currently sits 2nd with 43 points, 10 points behind Slavia Prague. A win here would close that gap to 7 points, boosting their chase for the league.
14:00 Odisha FC v Northeast United
Odisha FC
50 WIN
@2.70
Lose
-50
Odisha FC has won 5 of 6 home games against Northeast United. With Odisha losing the last 3 encounters to Northeast consecutively, I believe Odisha will have a lot of pressure to cancel that run. It comes at the right time when Odisha has lost only 2 at home, having won 3 (3W, 3D, 2L).

19:45 Roma v Napoli
Napoli
50 WIN
@2.40
Lose
-50
The Serie A title race is very intense, with Inter Milan very close in pursuit of Napoli. I think with the kind of pressure mounting on Napoli, they can't afford to lose this game against Roma, who sits 23 points and 8 places below them. I wager a win for Napoli.
19:00 Willem II v AZ
AZ
50 WIN
@1.70
Win
35
AZ Alkmaar has recently concluded an impressive sequence of 12 matches without a defeat; however, they are now facing a two-match losing streak. As they prepare for their upcoming fixture, it is reasonable to expect that they will approach it with renewed optimism, particularly because their opponent, Willem II, is currently in a less favorable position. Given these circumstances, it is plausible to anticipate that AZ Alkmaar may secure a victory and earn three valuable points in the forthcoming match.
18:00 Sporting v SC Farense
SC Farense
50 WIN
@19.00
Lose
-50
Farense has struggled this season, securing just 3 wins and suffering 10 losses in their last 19 matches (3W, 6D, 10L). However, a miraculous victory here would lift them out of the relegation zone, as a win would bring their points total to 18, tying them with AVS. This scenario would force AVS down into the relegation area, especially since Benfica is expected to triumph over Estrela, who is currently 16th and has a worse goal difference (-14) compared to Farense’s (-13). A win is crucial for Farense; they desperately need this victory. Sporting CP isn’t in peak form right now.
17:30 Gent v Anderlecht
Anderlecht
50 WIN
@3.40
Lose
-50
Anderlecht has 8 wins in the last 15 games, having drawn 1. Currently, they are 6 points ahead of Gent, and here, I think they are a better side, given that Gent has not won any of the last 4 matches (3D, 1L). I see a win for Anderlecht.
17:30 Slavia Prague v Mlada Boleslav
Mlada Boleslav
80 WIN
@15.00
Lose
-80
Slavia Prague is at the top of the league(50 points) and would be considered a clear favorite by many bookmakers. However, the recent form will be doubtful, and Mlada is in better improvement(7W,3D,2L). I don't think they are coming to concede defeat. Slavia Prague has a good number of players on the sidelines, and this might also affect their performance today. A win for Mlada Boleslav.
16:30 Arsenal v Man City
Man City
53 WIN
@3.90
Lose
-53
In the last seven league trips to Emirates, Man City has won six, while Arsenal has won only one(6W,1L). Man City is back to its winning ways, but Arsenal is struggling with a few injuries(Saka, Jesus). Man City added players in the January transfer window (Marmoush, Khusanov), and many players are back on form(Foden). I see a win for the Cityzens.
16:30 Legia Warsaw v Korona Kielce
Korona Kielce
55 WIN
@8.00
Lose
-55
Legia Warsaw is a clear favorite among many bookmakers. But the crucial part of the technicality in this game is that Korona Kielce would only require 3 points to leapfrog from the 16th in the drop zone to sit safely at 12th. I would consider a win for the guests.
15:30 FC Zurich v Basel
FC Zurich
50 WIN
@3.75
Lose
-50
Zurich trails by 2 goals, sitting 4 points behind Basel and 8 points away from the top position. Securing a win in this match would guarantee them a place in the top 4, which makes this home game extremely important. I believe the enthusiasm of the fans can motivate the team to achieve a stronger performance.
15:00 Rangers v Ross County
Ross County
50 WIN
@21.00
Lose
-50
Rangers are off a Europa Competition, where they won it 2-1 here at this ground. Ross County, on a far chance, can exploit the Rangers camp due to fatigue to get a win. Remember, Ross County has won the last 3 consecutive away games, all of which have been gainst teams on top of them. . It's positive momentum to ride on. I wager a win for Ross County.
14:00 Brentford v Tottenham
Brentford
Brentford has now gone 5 home matches winless (1D, 4L), and today, the pressure will be high to at least deliver. Tottenham has not walked away with a win from this ground in the last 2 seasons, and it won't be a surprise if Brentford snatches the 3 points.
Brentford #6-0
50 WIN
@201.00
Lose
-50
It's been a while since the last time Brentford won a match here at home, with the last win coming back on 7th Dec 2024. In that span, they have played 5 home matches, scoring 3 goals, and conceding 10. A deficit of 7 goals at home grounds, yet to cover. This is an opportunity, and I think, if they are serious today, they will hit this score, since Tottenham have been shaky, losing 3 of their last 5 games. Remember one of Brentford's recent wins was 5-0, and here, a chance for goals has presented itself.
14:00 Carrarese v Brescia
Brescia
Brescia is winless in the last 10 matches and have only lost 2 (8D, 2L). In this match, there is a chance that they will be seeking a win, with Carrarese having lost the last 3 consecutive games. A win for the guests.
14:00 Chaves v Maritimo
Maritimo
Maritimo is not in a safe position, with 4 points just off the drop zone. This is their 20th game, and a win would propel them to 13th, I believe that it will be their mission today to secure all the 3 points. So a win for Maritimo is a good value.
14:00 Fiorentina v Genoa
Genoa
Genoa is 10 points trailing Fiorentina, who has recently fallen in form, winning 3 of the last 10 competitive games (3W, 3D, 4L). Genoa will be lucky if they extend their form, having lost only 2 in the last 10 games, and winning 4 (4W, 4D, 2L). I wager a win for Genoa.
14:00 Man Utd v Crystal Palace
Man Utd
50 WIN
@1.85
Lose
-50
Losing the current momentum would greatly frustrate both the players and the squad, especially since Manchester United hasn’t conceded a goal in the last two matches and has won three in a row. As they prepare to face Crystal Palace, Manchester United aims to break their streak of three games without a win against this opponent(1D,2L). Securing a victory is essential for the Red Devils.

17:30 Union Berlin v RB Leipzig
Union Berlin
50 WIN
@3.10
Lose
-50
Union Berlin has been a constant threat to Leipzig, having won 5 of the last 10 encounters, losing 4 to Leipzig. I think this game will be tough, but slight home advantage will be the difference here. A home win.
17:30 Wolverhampton v Aston Villa
Wolverhampton
60 WIN
@3.30
Win
138
With Leicester failing to win at Goodison Park earlier on, Wolves can use this advantage to skip them and evade the drop zone. Aston Villa is just off a Champions League game, and the players might have much fatigue. With Wolves losing the last 4 Premier League matches, there is a lot of pressure on the camp, and today is a must-win.
15:00 Bournemouth v Liverpool
Liverpool
50 WIN
@1.70
Win
35
Liverpool made a very poor squad overhaul in their last Champions League game, which led to them losing that final game, 3-2 to PSV. Now, understand why they had to rest many players, due to the challenge ahead of them against Bournemouth, one of the in-form sides currently. I wager a win for Liverpool, who has not lost in the last 11 away games (8W, 3D).
15:00 Derby v Sheff Utd
Derby
50 WIN
@3.70
Lose
-50
Derby has lost all of the last 7 games across all competitions, and now 3 consecutive defeats at home grounds should be an alarm for a better result. I think they are also hopeful of a win, which could raise the chances of evading the drop zone as they sit 2 points behind Portsmouth who are placed 21st. With Sheffield Utd losing 3-0 at home last weekend, I think on their trip, it will be a tough game. A win for the hosts.
15:00 Everton v Leicester
Leicester
50 WIN
@4.33
Lose
-50
Goodison Park will be lit today, as two struggling sides are trying to evade the drop zone. More desperately, Leicester, who come in after winning 2-1 away at Spurs. I think that game has boosted their confidence ahead of their travel to Everton. Leicester is under pressure to get this win, though a win will not change the standings, so today is the day.
15:00 Ipswich v Southampton
Southampton
50 WIN
@3.60
Win
130
The last 3 away games for Southampton have been defeats, but at least they have scored in all. Ipswich beat Southampton last season, home and away, and a win here could pave the way for revenge, as they meet again in the EPL after a 1-1 first leg. I see Southampton claiming a win after Ipswich's recent 6-0 home loss to Man City exposed their defensive problems. I wager a win for Southampton.
15:00 Leeds v Cardiff
Cardiff
50 WIN
@11.00
Lose
-50
Leeds has beaten Cardiff only once in a league context in the last 12 visits that Cardiff has visited, with Cardiff winning 7 of those travels and drawing 4 times. In the current form, Cardiff can be upset here, as they have not lost in the last 8 games (4W, 4D).
15:00 Newcastle v Fulham
Newcastle
50 WIN
@1.73
Lose
-50
Fulham lost 1-0 away at Old Trafford. Newcastle are very high in hopes after their 3-1 away win at St. Mary's. I don't think they will allow a defeat on home soil today, now with 10 wins in the last 11 games (10W, 1L).
Newcastle #3-1
50 WIN
@15.00
Lose
-50
Fulham has scored in all of their last 12 away games across all competitions so far. Newcastle recently won 3-1 away at St. Marys, but also are nursing the biggest loss at home when they lost 4-1 to Bournemouth. I predict a 3-1 for Newcastle.
14:30 Bayern Munich v Holstein Kiel
Holstein Kiel
50 WIN
@41.00
Lose
-50
Bayern Munich is 48 points at the top, 2 off Bayern Leverkusen. Holstein Kiel are in a relegation fight, in their drop zone, and with the current struggles, they will come as underdogs. But we can expect them to give their all in a bid to survive the relegation woes. Remember they recently beat Dortmund 4-2. I will wager a win for Kiel.
12:30 MFK Karvina v FK Teplice
FK Teplice
50 WIN
@3.60
Lose
-50
Karvina has been struggling in the league and has not won any games in the last 5 games (2D, 3L). Teplice is capped high but worth a trial, having won 4 of the last 5 games across all competitions. Recently, I wager a win for Teplice despite them being 13th and Karvina sitting 11th.
12:30 Nottm Forest v Brighton
Nottm Forest
Nottingham and Brighton lost their league games last weekend and here it is another tough day. Brighton struggled a lot at AMEX, losing 1-0 to Everton. Nottingham Forest is under pressure after losing 5-0 on their trip to Vitality Stadium. The 5-goal deficit will have them running today, so I see a win for the Tricky Trees.
Nottm Forest #2-0
50 WIN
@13.00
Lose
-50
Nottingham Forest continues to rank among the top performers in the EPL, displaying strong form at home with only 2 losses in 11 matches (6W, 3D, 2L). Their recent 5-0 defeat to Bournemouth, in which they failed to score, will weigh heavily on them. Meanwhile, despite Brighton's home 1-0 loss to Everton, they demonstrated a more solid defensive approach. As a result, the upcoming match will pose challenges for the hosts. I foresee a 2-0 victory for Nottingham Forest.
12:30 Oxford Utd v Bristol City
Oxford Utd
Bristol City is winless in the last 7 away games (3D, 4L), making them a doubt in this clash against Oxford Utd, who has won all of their 4 home games. Also, they are now on a 4-game unbeaten run (2W, 2D). I wager a win for Oxford Utd.
12:30 Watford v Norwich
Norwich
There has been some improvement in recent games for Norwich, winning 4 in the last 7 league games (4W, 1D, 2L). With a recent 5-1 win against Swansea, we can expect them to shine again against Watford, who has now lost the last 3 home games. I wager a win for Norwich.
12:00 Eintracht Braunschweig v Cologne
Eintracht Braunschweig
50 WIN
@4.60
Lose
-50
Braunschweig has been in a balanced form playing at home this season, winning 3, drawing 3, and also losing 3 in the last 9 home matches (3W, 3D, 3L). In this encounter, the hosts are under pressure, as they need results to evade the drop zone, and Köln might find it very difficult in this game. I see a win for the hosts.
12:00 Fortuna Dusseldorf v SSV Ulm 1846
Fortuna Dusseldorf #2-0
50 WIN
@9.50
Lose
-50
Ulm has struggled on the road this season, winning only 1 in the last 10 away games (1W, 4D, 5L). Fortuna Dusseldorf will be keen to seal a win here, as they have also struggled at home grounds winning only 2in the last 10 home matches(2W,4D,4L), but it might be a tough game for them, given that Ulm just won 5-1 last weekend. A 2-goal win for Fortuna could be on the cards.

Regensburg has conceded 6 goals in the last 2 games, which they have lost, exposing their weakness in defense. Hertha Berlin is also not doing well, but at least they scored 2 goals in their 3-2 loss last week. I think this game will have goals. I wager 2.5 goals for this encounter.
11:30 Punjab FC v Bengaluru
Bengaluru
50 WIN
@2.50
Lose
-50
Bengaluru has won 3 of the last 6 encounters, losing 1 to Punjab (3W, 2D, 1L). In this game, there might be a slight chance of them winning, given that they are seeking to extend their lead against Punjab, and also with them among the top 5 on 28 points, 8 ahead of Punjab. I wager a win for Bengaluru.
10:45 Perth Glory v Melbourne Victory
Perth Glory
50 WIN
@7.00
Lose
-50
Perth Glory has lost 7 home games in the league this season, securing only 1 win. This record needs improvement, and there's an opportunity today against Melbourne Victory, who has struggled with form recently, winning just 1 of their last 7 games (1W, 3D, 3L). Perth Glory can take advantage of this situation as they aim for their 2nd home win of 2025 and their 3rd of the season.
10:30 Erzurum BB v Kocaelispor
Kocaelispor (AH) 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@2.05
Push

Kocaelispor is at the top of the league with 44 points, 8 points clear of 3rd place Erzurum. I think that Kocaelispor has no intentions of slipping off the top, given that the 2nd-placed Karagumruk is only 6 points behind them.
08:35 Central Coast Mariners v Newcastle Jets
Central Coast Mariners
Central Coast Mariners have won all of the last 6 games against Newcastle Jets. In the current form, they need this record to boost their confidence and seek to find a better rank as they sit 8 points ahead of the Jets. I wager a win for the hosts.
Central Coast Mariners #4-0
50 WIN
@71.00
Lose
-50
In the last 2 games against Newcastle Jets, Central Coast Mariners have at least scored 3 goals in those two wins. Currently, as hosts, the Mariners are not doing well, with only 1 win in the last 10 home matches(1W,4D,5L). They need to raise the bar for a better result, and with great hopes, though they threw away a 2-1 lead to 2-2 against Western United. If they remain focused today, they can get a good win.
06:00 Sydney FC v Adelaide United
Adelaide United #2-0
50 WIN
@21.00
Lose
-50
Sydney FC has now lost 4 games in the span of 10 games(3W,3D,4L), making them now a weak side to face. Adelaide United comes with a very concrete form, having won the last 6 away games(6W). I think that this game will be hard for Sydney FC, and they will try to avoid defeat, but at least 2 goals for Adelaide would be a good bet. I predict 2-0 for Adelaide United.
