Sporting’s performance in Turin, away to Juventus, gives hope for Leon’s ambitions against Alvalade. However, you should not count on a large number of goals. But here we go.
In the Portuguese league, the fight for the title continues, with leader Benfica getting a “sorry”, second-placed Porto visiting a historically uncomfortable opponent, and Braga doing everything to avenge their failure in the first round. Sporting visits the castle, which usually seems “hospitable”.
In England, emotions are also at an all-time high. Arsenal in first place gets a red light and already feels the closest pursuer, Manchester City, approaching, so losing more points is prohibited.
Speaking of losing points, Chelsea have been an expert this season and have hosted another team they haven’t won in five games. And both are allergic to goals.
Here are tips for some of the most important games next week.
Europa League: the lion will introduce laws in Alvalada

Tip: Under 2.5 heads. Sporting will attack. Juventus will defend. And still no Paulinho.
previous point. We believe that Sporting will be able to take over Juventus both in regular time, which this hint refers to (in this case it will be 2-0), and in extra time.
Vecchia signora is unconvincing and the lion went to Turin to play ball despite the loss, with some dissatisfaction and inefficiency in attack.
Having said that, it is only natural that this inefficiency continues, which was a lion’s symptom without Paulinho, a striker who, taking into account the words of Ruben Amorim, should also not play the second leg.
On the other side, Juventus, like a good Italian team, will defend with all their might, because they have a 1-0 advantage. Smells like a few goals in Alvalada.
Portuguese League: Warrior Rematch

Hint: Braga/Draw and Total Over 1.5 Goals.. Minhotos won 11 out of 14 visits and only one of them had less than 1.5 goals scored.
Braga lost at home in the first round to Casa Pia, which was one of the most unexpected results of the season and in a stage of excellent quality for the geese.
However, a lot of water has already flown under the bridge of the Portuguese league and now the people from Miño are in a privileged position to take revenge for this result and win in Jamora.
Casa Pia is no longer as strong as it was back then. The Warriors are in a great moment, with five wins and a draw in their last six meetings.
Away from home, the Minhos have 11 wins in 14 away games (and three losses, two of them against Porto and Sporting, one in a derby against Vitoria), are the second best team in the league as guests and average 2 ,4. goals per game. Only one of his sorties had less than 1.5 goals. It’s on the face, right?
Premier League: easy win for leaders under pressure

Hint: correct score – groups (1-0, 2-0 or 3-0). The leader receives the last classified who does not score more than 0.6 away goals.
Southampton’s last win over Arsenal was in 1987. This historical fact alone indicates a more or less predictable outcome of the reception of “gunners” of saints.
The Londoners are in first place in the English league but are at risk of losing that advantage as they have one more game than Manchester City and have yet to visit this opponent. For this reason, it is a win or win for Mikel Arteta’s men.
The good news for Arsenal is that Southampton are at the bottom and going through another bad phase with six consecutive games without a win and four losses in that sequence.
In addition, the Saints do not exceed 0.6 goals scored on the road, and the Gunners score 2.8 at home.
Taking into account that Southampton don’t even concede that many away goals (1.5), expect Londoners to win 1-0, 2-0 or 3-0. The oddity of Betclic is pompous.
Portuguese League: the dragon continues to pursue the leader

Tip: Porto and under 3.5 goals. Dragao struggles in the Mobile capital and only scores 1.6 goals per game away from home.
The fight for the Portuguese title is in full swing after two defeats in a row against Benfica and a good winning streak against Porto.
In round 29, the dragons won’t want to ease the pressure on the reds, and only one outcome matters to visit a downtrodden Pacos de Ferreira: victory.
As such, Porto’s players are clear favorites against the beavers, who have regained their ground in the fight for maintenance but seem to be losing ground. What game will we have?
Pacos, however, will not give up and will want something from this game against Porto, which, with the exception of the match in Luz against Benfica, showed gray and dull football, and triumphs help to disguise.
So a meeting with more Porto is foreseen, but the truth is that Invicta averages just 1.6 away games. The Betclic coefficient for this tip is quite high given the trends.
Portuguese league: oxygen for the eagle’s breath

Tip: Benfica and goals under 4.5.. Eagle heals wounds and without ideas in attack, but the favorite.
Benfica cannot lose more points if they want to maintain a more or less secure lead over Porto.
Four points, still with a welcome in Braga and a visit to Sporting on the horizon, doesn’t allow for relaxation and the eagle must go all out against a team that is fighting for service and that has only won two of its last ten matches, by the way, with eight defeats.
However, in the last three league matches, the Luzovites scored only two goals – four matches, including the Champions League. The team shows little energy and ideas in attack and should have some difficulty scoring.
Reallyonly two of Estoril’s 14 visits have had over 4.5 goals scored, and only five of 14 matches at Luz.
Portuguese League: Sporting’s small impregnable fortress

Tip: total sports goals – more than 1.5.. Lev has scored 14 goals in his last five visits to Guimarães.
Vitoria de Guimarães and Sporting moments make predictions a real exercise in guessing what we are avoiding. Our advice is based on data and trends, and this case is no different, albeit more complex.
Minho didn’t win five games and lost four of them. Sporting alternate between great performances, like in Turin, with bad ones, like a 1-1 draw with Aroca.
Let’s look at recent history: Sporting have won three of their last five visits to the castle and lost only one. That set of games brought the Lions 14 goals, of which 12 were scored in three victories (3-1, 4-0, 5-0). In the last five rounds, Guimarães conceded 11 goals, the same number as Lisbon.
The data tells us that it is not difficult for the Alvalade men to score in Guimarães and the Betclic odds of over 1.5 Leo goals are very high.
Premier League: a game between singles and married?

Tip: under 2.5 goals. Chelsea score 1.1 goals per game at home. Brentford 1.2 out.
Little can be said about Chelsea’s season. After millions and millions spent on signings, negative results follow one after another, and goals seem something of an oddity for teams at Stamford Bridge, which is not surprising, because among so many reinforcements, not one scores a goal.
The London Blues have not won five games (four at home) with three losses so far, exactly the same number as Brentford.
Thus, the outcome of this game is unpredictable. However, the numbers do not lie: both teams are allergic to goals scored. Chelsea do not exceed 1.1 per game (17 of 16 receptions), Brentford scores 1.2 per visit (18 of 16 appearances), for which is more than natural that this is a game with less than 2.5 goals. The Betclic coefficient is great for the multiplier.
