This week's Tournament consists of Premier League, Serie A, Copa del Rey matches. Picks for the week:

✧ Chelsea vs Everton: 2-0
Chelsea wins. Chelsea sits at 6th, remaining in the hunt for Europe and have been solid at Stamford Bridge, winning 9 of 16 home matches. Maresca’s side has shown improved cohesion with young talents flourishing and a balanced attack. Everton, mid-table at 13th are safe but inconsistent. They've won only 1 game out of the last 5 matches, struggling to turn draws into wins. The Toffees’ away record is poor, and their defensive setup will likely invite pressure from Chelsea’s fluid midfield. I expect Chelsea to dominate possession and eventually break down Everton’s resistance

✧ Brighton vs West Ham: 1-1
A draw. Brighton sits at 10th currently and have been tough to beat at home, unbeaten in 13 of their last 16 at the Amex, but have only 1 win in their last 8 across all competitions. On the other hand, West Ham fights for survival at 17th, having lost half of their last 6 games on the road. Both teams have struggled for goals lately, and their H2H encounters are often tight, with Brighton winning 3 of the last 6. I expect a cautious, tactical battle with neither side taking big risks as they both seek to secure points, eventually ending in a stalemate.

✧ Newcastle vs Ipswich: 4-1
Newcastle wins. Newcastle sits at 5th, coming off a heavy 1-4 defeat to Villa but have shown consistency in home form this year. Having been assured of a spot in Champions League, they'll be coming into this match with good morale. Isak leads the line in top form, and the Magpies’ pressing and wide overloads have overwhelmed weaker sides. Meanwhile, Ipswich continues in free fall at 18th, ambushed with injuries and taking only 1 point from their last 9 games. I expect Ipswich to fight hard but their defence will quickly falter against Newcastle's attack a St. James' Park.

✧ Southampton vs Fulham: 0-1
Fulham wins. Southampton sits at 20th, relegated, and having lost 81% of their home matches. Fulham sits higher on the table at 9th, and although away form has been poor, they remain the stronger side on paper. Both teams have struggled for goals recently, and the pressure is off for both, which could lead to a surprisingly open but low-scoring affair.

✧ Wolves vs Leicester: 2-0
Wolves win. Wolves sit at 15th which is pretty low mid-table but they have shown a solid home record and remarkable recent form, winning all 5 of their last 5 matches. Meanwhile, Leicester sits at 19th and, similar to Southampton, has been relegated, showing poor consistency both on the road and at home this season. As the odds suggest, I expect Wolves to control the match and take a vital step toward safety with Matheus Cunha leading the way.

✧ Inter vs AS Roma: 2-1
Inter wins. Inter leads the Serie A competition, closing in on the Scudetto and having exceptional form all season. They've been nearly untouchable at home, with only 1 loss at San Siro. Meanwhile, Roma sits at 6th, fighting for Europe and will have the zeal and determination to trouble Inter, though their defence has shown to be vulnerable against top sides. Similarly, Inter is fresh off a shock loss to Bologna last weekend and this could serve as a wake-up call for them to refocus and ensure they maintain their position. I expect an exciting match with both sides looking to score, eventually seeing Inter edge a win, a familiar scene this season.

✧ Barcelona vs Real Madrid: 2-2
A draw, but Real Madrid wins in extra time/penalties. A little bit of a controversial pick for this Copa del Rey final in Seville? This brings the 260th El Clásico with Barcelona and Real Madrid both seeking silverware. Barcelona has been more consistent in the league but Real Madrid won the last 2 Copa del Rey finals that featured an El Clásico face off in 2013-14 and 2010-11. Both sides are nearly at full strength, and the tactical battle between Flick and Ancelotti will be fascinating. Expect a tense, high-quality affair with goals on both sides and with so much on the line. I'm betting this will end in a draw. Definitely one of the biggest matches to watch this weekend!

✧ Venezia vs AC Milan: 1-3
AC Milan wins. Venezia sits at 18th and are fighting for their Serie A lives with, expectedly, low probability of winning and poor home form. Meanwhile, Milan will continue to push for a European spot at 9th, having the quality edge in every department. Despite Milan's inconsistent away form, their superior quality with players like Tammy Abraham and Samuel Chukwueze, they should achieve a comfortable win against Venezia.

✧ Bournemouth vs Manchester United: 2-1
Bournemouth wins. Bournemouth, sitting at 8th, has been one of the surprise packages of the season, wth a strong home record and dynamic attack. Conversely, Manchester United also finds themselves in a surprising mid-table position at 14th even as the end of season nears. United is in crisis with Amorim under pressure and the team struggling for consistency and goals, seeing only 1 win in the last 5 games. Meanwhile, Bournemouth's pressing and energy could very possibly overwhelm United's fragile midfield, edging a win—does this count as an upset?

✧ Fiorentina vs Empoli: 2-0
Fiorentina wins. Fiorentina sits at 8th with a strong home record and will be pushing for a top 6 finish. Meanwhile, Empoli sits bottom of the table at 19th, desperate for points and having struggled for wins all season. Fiorentina’s attacking depth and home support should see them through, but Empoli’s need for survival could make it nervy. Expect Fiorentina to control possession and eventually break through.

✧ Liverpool vs Tottenham: 3-1
Liverpool wins. Liverpool leads at the top of the table and are closing in on the title. They've had a remarkable season and especially ruthless at Anfield. Meanwhile, Tottenham sits close to the bottom at 16th and have seen losses in the last 3 matches on the road. Salah, without a doubt, is in top form and Spurs' defensive frailties are likely to be exposed. It would be more than surprising if Liverpool didn't win this match comfortably.

✧ Juventus vs Monza: 3-0
Juventus wins. Juventus, sitting at 5th, has been nearly flawless at home and are heavy favourites against Monza, sitting at 20th and already relegated, arguably the league's worst defence this season. Dušan Vlahović and Kenan Yıldız should find plenty of opportunities and Tudor's men will be moivated to secure their Champions League position. I expect a rather uneventful comfortable win for Juventus.

✧ Napoli vs Torino: 2-1
Napoli wins. Napoli is still in the title race sitting at 2nd currently, and they have been excellent at home. Torino is safe at 10th but have little to play for. Comparing recent form, Napoli has seen 3 wins in the last 5 games while Torino has seen just 1 in the last 5 games. With Romelu Lukaku and Scott McTominay both fit and firing, Napoli should control the match, though Torino’s physicality could make it close for a while.
