At this point, we can only make assumptions on which team will manage to take European tournaments spots. Top 3 qualify for the Champions League directly and the 4th finisher goes to playoffs. How do you expect top 4 to be by the end of the season?

PSG is not fighting for the top spot in the points table. Now the target of the teams is to qualify for the Champions League. We thought Marseille would fight for the title. But this team has lost its form badly. If Marseille cannot improve their performance, then it is going to be difficult for them to qualify for the Champions League.

Marseille, Monaco, Nice, Lille, Lyon and Strasbourg are all trying to qualify for the Champions League. And the points gap between these teams is very small. Marseille is only 4 points behind Strasbourg. So the team whose performance is stable now will be able to qualify for the Champions League. It is not possible to make a prediction about which three teams will be in second to fourth place in the table so quickly.

PSG is in high confidence after successfully eliminating Liverpool but PSG's consistency this season has not been tested so I think there is still a possibility for Aston Villa to beat PSG in the quarter-finals later.
Overall, I think the strength of Aston Villa and PSG is not much different so it is possible for this match to be fierce.
Regarding concentration and priority, of course all teams will focus on the Champion League match because this competition is the main target of every team, especially PSG who are now only focusing on the UCL competition after they are comfortable enough at the top of the league 1 standings without any pressure to defend the title.

This is the most important thing. After the victory against Liverpool, PSG players are now very confident. Because Liverpool was one of the favorites for this year's Champions League title. PSG players were able to defeat this team. That's why they are now very confident. And this confidence will probably help PSG players perform well against Aston Villa.

Basically, I also think that Aston Villa and PSG are very similar teams. PSG's squad is not very strong. But PSG has an experienced coach like Luis Enrique. And with the help of Enrique, we are seeing great performance from a mediocre team.

Oh I even forgot about Manchester United still being in the Europa league, lol. Maybe it was because my main focus was on Tottenham. Manchester United, I think hasn't lost a game yet in the Europa League if I'm not mistaken and so far they have being doing well. The way they played against Real Sociedad might actually prove that they might be ready for the Europa league, because they might to win it so that they can qualify for the competition again automatically next season since they are not going to qualify from the EPL directly.

Manchester United's performance in the first few matches of the Europa League was weak. But in every match after that, Manchester United has been able to play well. Although the opponent was not very strong for Manchester United. However, Manchester United's performance in the second leg against Real Sociedad surprised me very much. I have not seen such a well-organized performance from Manchester United players for a long time. If Manchester United can play with the same strategy in the next matches and the players are confident, then this team has a chance to become Europa League Champions.

My thoughts too, since they are not in any other competition and sadly the fact that they are not fighting for any European spot and again neither are they fighting from relegation, so I think they might want to put all of their energy in the Europa League, the way the played AZ Alkmaar and made a comeback after losing the first leg showed a little bit of seriousness from their angle. Nevertheless, I still don't trust that Tottenham of a team, they might just wake up and lose their two games in the Europa league, lol.

Tottenham and Manchester United are in a similar situation. Both teams are relatively weak in the Premier League. And both are now aiming to win the Europa League.

Tottenham won against AZ Alkmaar in the round of 16. After losing the first leg 1-0, Tottenham played well in the second leg and won the match 3-1. However, Tottenham will face a stronger opponent in the quarter-finals. Frankfurt is a strong team. And Frankfurt's players have the full ability to defeat Tottenham. So the match will be very enjoyable.

I was certainly not surprised by the result that Juventus obtained against Fiorentina, the team is going through a very bad period and it was more than normal that there was a result like that, the fact that surprises me is that Motta is still there to coach and that he has still been given confidence, these people are crazy
The main reason they trusted Motta was the low number of defeats. The team was not losing, they were drawing. However, we have seen that they have suffered big defeats one after another in the last two weeks. They were also surprisingly eliminated in the Champions League and this caused the loss of manager Motta. Juventus may continue with another manager in Italy next year. They may also need to restructure their squad.

We have not seen a better performance from Juventus in the last season. Juventus is one of the most renowned teams in Serie A. But in the last season we have seen that the main target of this team was to draw the match. Their attack was very weak. We have seen the same thing happening again this season. Juventus' performance was stable since the beginning of the season, but at the moment Juventus' performance is weak.

I would say that Juventus management should take necessary steps to strengthen their squad. Prepare big funds and add talented players to the squad. Even if the coach changes, Juventus' performance will not change unless they strengthen the squad.

Pakistan all out at 91 runs and it is the beginning of a new era after Babar and Muhammad Rizwan in T20. Since many years Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam era was going on in T20 and they both created many histories of course. But now according to some Pakistan journalists it has been finished since 2024 and here is the new era but the start of this era is so disappointing.

Every single player from Pakistan is experiencing his worst time, and selectors cannot directly drop them because, as we have seen with the new talent, Pakistan cricket is in danger.

A few years ago, we saw that Pakistan's main weakness was their batting order. The bowlers were performing well but the batsmen were underperforming. Even then, batsmen like Rizwan and Babar were added to the squad. We thought Pakistan's batting order would be strong. We have seen good performances from Pakistan's batsmen for a while. But in the last few years, we have seen inconsistent performances from every batsman in Pakistan. And at the same time, the performance of Pakistan's bowlers is not as good as expected.

I don't know how Pakistan will solve these problems. I would say that Pakistan's players need to work harder. Every player in the squad is talented. But even then, their performance is very inconsistent.

Nottingham Forest is proving against all odds that they will be heading to Europes clubs biggest competition next season with each win that they get, it pushes them closer and closer to UCL competition. Initially, I thought Manchester City will at least pick up form at the end of the season so they could secure a place in the top 4 but I'm actually wrong on that because City is either losing or drawing games which is further drawing them down. Nottingham Forest deserves to be where they are now because they have worked hard for it.

We have seen some irregular performances from Nottingham Forest for quite some time. However, in the last two matches, Nottingham Forest has won against Manchester City and Ipswich Town. Nottingham Forest won against Ipswich by a big margin of 4-2. And now the chances of Nottingham Forest going outside the top four of the table are very low. Nottingham Forest team is 6 points ahead of Manchester City. If they do not lose badly, Nottingham Forest will be in the top four of the table.

Nottingham is going to qualify for the Champions League next season. Nottingham management should try to strengthen the squad by creating a big fund. Otherwise, we will see irregular performances from Nottingham next season.

Namibia won the toss and  elected to bat against Canada. Namibia got off to a good start. Although  the batsmen are batting very slowly. But we always see such slow batting from these teams. A target of 220-250 is enough for them to win. Neither Canada nor Namibia are very strong teams. So if Namibia can somehow give a target of more than 200, then their chances of winning are high.

After 25 overs, Namibia scored 100 runs for the loss of three wickets . Opener Zane green could not add any runs to the scoreboard. Jp Kotze was just out after scoring 48 runs. Besides , nikolaas Davin played an innings of 31 runs.
Another Namibian wicket fell, especially with the new bowling line-up, with Shahid Ahmadzai taking two crucial wickets. If Namibia cannot score over 200 runs, they will not be able to play against Canada in today's match, and Canada is in third position in the points table. In ODIs, if you don't score above 200 runs, it will definitely not be competitive. However, if Namibia cannot score big in today's match, then it will be very tough for them to get 200 runs.

Teams like Namibia do not have any batsmen in their squad who can bat responsibly and stay at the crease for a long time. Every batsman's batting is very erratic. So it is not sure whether Namibia will be able to collect more than 200 in today's match. However, if Namibia can collect more than 220, I will consider it a good target.

Namibia's batsmen have collected 143 runs in 39 overs. However, Namibia has lost 6 wickets. A talented batsman like Jan Nicol Loftie-Eaton is still at the crease. It is not possible to say for sure whether Loftie-Eaton can play a big innings. Even then, I hope Namibia will collect around 200 today.

~Snip~
All your predictions were right except for Liverpool, I always doubted Liverpool’s chances of winning over PSG after watching the first leg. PSG totally outplayed Liverpool in their game but were unfortunate to concede in the end. In the second leg PSG made sure that slip up never happened as they equalized Liverpool’s one goal and beat them in penalties.
After Liverpool failed to advance to the quarter-finals, the chances of an English team winning the UCL trophy are very small, now the EPL representatives are Arsenal and Aston Villa, in my opinion both teams will have difficulty when facing other strong teams such as Real Madrid and PSG. Liverpool were very unlucky in the second leg, they only needed a draw to qualify, but the goal scored by PAG at Anfield changed everything.

We considered Liverpool as the favorite against PSG. Because we saw good performance of Liverpool players in every match of the first round. But Liverpool failed to win against Psg. Even after winning the first leg, Liverpool could not qualify for the quarter finals.

I think Real Madrid or Barcelona will win the Champions League title. However, winning against Arsenal is now a big challenge for Real Madrid. On the other hand, Barcelona will play against Dortmund in the quarter finals. As Barcelona is in great form, Dortmund team is not a difficult opponent for Barcelona at the moment.

Haha Arsenal are under a curse and always fail in almost all competitions, in the Champions League the chances are of course very low because Real Madrid is a specialist team that is always in the final meaning Arsenal need a miracle to beat Real Madrid. We are not saying Arsenal is a bad team but rather their competitors are stronger so they can't do much. In the Premier League Arsenal must wait for Liverpool to lose their best performance only in this way  Arsenal  can take over, previously they were waiting for Manchester City and it has happened now.

We have been seeing Arsenal's performance like this for the last few seasons. The team performs brilliantly at the beginning of the season. But they cannot maintain consistency. So despite fighting hard for the title for the last 3 seasons, Arsenal has not been able to win the title. And this season too, Arsenal has no chance of winning the Premier League title.

Arsenal management should strengthen their squad. Especially, it is important to strengthen Arsenal's bench. We have seen that Arsenal's performance weakens whenever any important player in Arsenal's squad gets injured. Arsenal does not have any worthy replacement for any player. And if this problem is not solved, Arsenal will not be able to dominate the Premier League.

What a mess for Roma, they are playing with one man down currently. Hummels brought down Maroan Sannadi for no reason. It was a reckless tackle and that will cost Roma a lot if they cannot resist the pressure from Bilbao.
Playing with ten men from the 12th minutes till the end of the game isn't going to be easy for Roma. However, if they can seal up their defense, they can still keep the scoreline on 0-0 but how is tgat possible.

Roma are playing in a 3-4-2-1 formation today. There were three defenders in Roma's squad. So Hummels' red card will have a big impact on Roma's overall match strategy. The referee showed Hummels a red card in the 11th minute. And naturally Roma's overall performance is very slow now.

Roma are now trying to draw the match somehow. Roma won the first leg match by 2-1. So if they can draw today's match, Roma will be able to qualify for the next round. At the end of 42 minutes, Athletic Club has not scored a goal yet. We will probably not see any goals from Bilbao in the first half.

Atalanta secured a big win against Juventus in their last match and if they can match the performance they did against Inter Milan then Atalanta will have a good chance of winning there. Inter Milan vs Atalanta match is actually difficult to predict. Both teams are strong and both teams are in very strong positions in the points table. Inter Milan is at the top of the points table but Atalanta is only 3 points behind Inter Milan. If Altana wins against Inter Milan in the next 17th match between these two teams, then this team will be in the same position as Inter Milan in terms of points. Although the exact prediction cannot be made, at least it is assumed that the match between Atalanta vs Inter Milan will be tough.

Serie A has become competitive again. A few days ago we thought Atalanta was out of the title race. But in the last few matches we have seen inconsistent performances from both Napoli and Inter Milan. As a result, Atalanta has been able to close the gap on points.

Atalanta is now only 3 points behind Inter Milan and 2 points behind Napoli. This is not a big gap. If Inter Milan and Napoli cannot continue their winning streak in the upcoming matches, we will see Atalanta at the top of the table in the next few weeks.

Actually it is not about the money anymore. You can't deny Arsenal is one of the most spending clubs if not the most spending club in the English Premier League. they should have actually won the English Premier League title. But they came out as the second best. I understand that they made a proper stripper. But I really think they are lacking one key thing which is the winning mentality.

This year they had to face plenty of injury troubles, but they are doing alright so far. The amount of games these players play in a year is way too much, so injuries become a serious threat, maybe getting some good depth would help them better too.
if you say they are too much injury prone, then injuries are always going to be a problem for all the teams. It is something that cannot be predicted. In this season it is almost pretty much certain that they are not going to win the English Premier League title.

I disagree that Arteta should be sacked, he is doing a wonderful job and he should be given a proper striker instead. With a proper striker (last I heard they were interested in Osimhen) they will be the winners next season, keep the same team and put Osimhen on this and they should be having very easy time winning the title easily.

Nothing is guaranteed in life of course, if they get Osimhen but plenty of injuries happens then even next year could be terrible for them.
I really thought that this season they might actually be in contention for the title as Manchester City is not performing well. But an insane performance from Liverpool has taken that chance away from them. Osimhen should be a good choice to bring in for Arsenal. And firing the coach is definitely going to be a bad move at this moment. We have seen that this single decision of firing a coach can make a club suffer. Good coaches are hard to find. Of course I believe for the money that Arsenal is spending right now they might say that they should have lifted the English Premier League trophy by now. But you never know if the next coach is actually going to bring in better results or not.

Barcelona are unlikely to lose against Benfica . Barcelona won the away match by a narrow  margin of 1-0. However, in just 22 minutes, the referee showed Pau Cubarsi a red card. It was very difficult to win the match with 10 players. However due to Hansi flick's excellent match strategy, Barcelona was able to secure the victory until the end. Although Barcelona's overall performance was a bit slow in the first leg match.

However, in today's match, I think Barcelona will play attacking from the beginning of the match. barcelona will want to win the home match  by a large margin. benfica is not a very strong opponent for Barcelona. I  guess Barcelona will want to win this match by at least 2 goals...
It seems that many people have high hopes for Barcelona in today's match in the second leg of their round of 16 match against Benfica. But that's a very natural thing because Barcelona was able to win the first leg when they even lost 1 point since the first half. But Hansi Flick's team is very reliable and their mentality was maintained even though they were outnumbered in the first leg. IN the second leg, I think Barcelona will immediately appear to attack intensely. But Benfica also has a pretty solid defense. So scoring lots of goals will not be easy for Barcelona. It's just that favorite Barcelona to win is still the best choice for me. Because their strength is quite reliable.

First of all, the way Barcelona performed in the away match even with 10 players was excellent. More importantly, the Barcelona team is currently in their best form this season. They have been able to perform well consistently in La Liga. Since Barcelona is in very good form, and the match is also Barcelona's home match, that is why everyone is considering Barcelona as the favorite. I also hope that Barcelona is going to get an easy win in today's match unless there is an accident.

Still 9 matches left in the Ligue 1 competition and it already feels like Luis Enrique has already run away with things Smiley. They are ahead by 16 points compared to Marseille which is in the second position of the table. So we can already say that PSG have already won the Ligue 1 title. Because who else is going to give them any competition? There is no other team in this league who is actually stronger or even as strong as PSG.

You know this is the reason why the Parisians are never going to do well in Champions League competition. You cannot practice the whole year against 16-year-olds and expect to win the global trophy at the end of the year. You will have to play against the big boys regularly to actually hone your skills. the Parisians literally does not do that. They do the absolute opposite. I am also pretty sure that the management of PSG is not much concerned about it as long as they are winning the league title.

Lens could win after they were very lucky to score a goal in the final minutes. On the other hand, Marseille had to suffer bad luck, because with all the opportunities they got and also controlling the game throughout, they could not score a single goal to secure points. They did not play badly, but the finishing was a problem that ultimately made them lose this match. They could not be more creative so they always found a dead end when making attacks that ended in failure. This defeat made Paris Saint Germain more comfortable at the top of the standings.

Marseille lost in the home match against Lens. It is difficult for me to accept this defeat. This was Marseille's home match. Moreover, Marseille's team is also stronger than Lens. But still Marseille's players could not score any goal in this match.

Lens had lost in their last four matches. And the match was Marseille's home match, besides Marseille's squad is also stronger than Lens, for these reasons I bet on Marseille's victory in the match. But Marseille failed to perform as expected. Marseille dominated the match and made a lot of attacks, but Marseille's players failed to break Lens's defense.

The way Ruben Amorim & management have treated Casemiro was absolutely unfair. Just for the record, he won everything with Real Madrid and that's why he went to Old Trafford to find some new challenges. But it seems like he was not given enough chances to actually when anything. Ruben Amorim has created Casemiro as a player who is just a backup plan for some other players. You guys know well, that he was definitely not a backup plan in the Spanish Soccer Giant.

The management of Manchester United was stupid to bring in such players and then treat them like they were not important to the squad. Sometimes it seems to me Ruben Amorim tried to make a young squad. But if you are going for a young squad, why are you bringing in Cristiano Ronaldo and Casemiro? Actually, the problem was the MU management did not know what they wanted.

By the way, Casemiro is already 33 years old. So if he wants to do something or achieve something more in his career he has to take a certain state now or it will be too late for him.
