How to Ensure Football Picks Win More Often

When you’re looking into becoming an expert handicapper, you are going to have to do more than just pick your favorite teams. In fact, if you are working within the framework of only selecting the teams that you think are good, or that are favored, you are going to lose a lot of money. It’s for that reason that you should look into football picks in a whole new light. If you can factor in several different tips for moving ahead of the average gambler, you will not only find that you can make a lot of money from betting, you can end up becoming an expert fast. It all starts with knowing what to look for when you’re watching the games. First and foremost, you will not want to bet on the first week. You could, but you will not have enough information on teams to establish a real viewpoint. Wait until week 2 to start throwing down a lot of money as you will be able to gauge what teams have offensive weapons and which ones are defensive powerhouses. Seeing the games played on week 1 will give you a good overview of the league and will denote which teams are going to struggle and which teams have upside in terms of the spread and more. After you’ve waited out the first week, you will want to make sure that your life turns into one of a student. You will want to read newspapers, online posts, and start following social media as well. The world that you are living in will need to be filled with football, and the numbers, teams and rumors that prevail the media. Not only that, you will need to highlight little personal anecdotes that you see or hear about any given team. For instance, you may find out that a team’s quarterback has a wife that is going to have a baby soon, that may lead him to not focus on the game nearly as much. Or someone may be out partying the night before a big game, which means they could have a lackluster performance during the big game overall. Little pieces of information like this should factor into what you’re doing in terms of putting money down on football. When you start to analyze what made professionals of the past, present and future, you will see that they all had a system in place that helped them make moves. All professional gamblers that are putting money on football picks or playing poker have a strategy to what they are doing. If you don’t develop or subscribe to one, you will not be able to join them in the victory circles. If you want to win more often, you absolutely need to make sure that you have a system in place that is helping you figure out what teams are going to upset others, and which ones are going to dominate on any given Sunday. Without knowing those details, you will not make it far in the world of handicapping. Get a FREE Video Preview for the #1 Rated Sports Investing System Online.

Roma v Man City Betting Tips and Prediction

Roma vs Manchester City predictions and football betting tips for tonight’s Champions League match where Man City need to win to have any chance of qualifying.

The busy festive period doesn’t let up this time of year as both Manchester City and Roma come together in Wednesday night’s Champions League clash. With Bayern Munich already qualifying as the clear group winners with 12 points, Man City, Roma and CSKA Moscow all have a chance of making it through to the knock-out stages, with the winner of this fixture in particular looking likely to go through.

Roma v Man City Prediction: Manuel Pellegrini’s star-studded side have once again been a disappointment in Europe this season. Five points from five games is simply not good enough for a side as good as City, but they can nevertheless make it through if they turn up on Wednesday night. If Premier League form is anything to go by, Manchester City have been strong domestically, winning on their last four outings. A mid-week victory against group leaders Bayern was also a promising result that could put Pellegrini’s side in good stead as they travel to Rome this week.

Rudi Garcia’s Roma have also been experiencing some strong league form, as they have now pretty much asserted themselves as the second best team in Italy, behind Juventus and ahead of the failing Milan sides. With Kevin Strootman returning to the side after a long spell on the side-lines, Garcia now has a chance to line the Dutchman up alongside the likes of Miralem Pjanic, Juan Iturbe and Mattia Destro in a strong looking attack. Roma will however likely be without Brazilian international Maicon, so the Greek pairing of Kostas Manolas and Jose Holebas will continue their roles at full back. Newcastle’s on loan centre back, Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa, may also be a doubt despite starting last time out against Sassuolo.

For Manchester City, the worst news of all hit them last time out against Everton, with star-man Sergio Aguero being ruled out with a worrying knee ligament injury. His goals against Bayern were priceless and simply couldn’t be replicated by anyone else. The influential David Silva will also be out for Pellegrini, so a forward trio of Samir Nasri, Edin Dzeko and Stefan Jovetic may be on the cards for the Citizens. As Manchester City struggled against Roma when they came to the Etihad, largely through the efforts of a 38 year old Francesco Totti, expect home advantage for the Romans to prove too much for Manuel Pellegrini’s floundering Champions League side.

Roma vs Manchester City Betting Tips:

Francesco Totti to score first Totti to score and Roma to win.

Barcelona vs PSG betting tips by Isaiah

Despite conceding early goal in 13th minute and losing till the very end of the first halftime, Barcelona managed to get a 5:1 victory in local derby over Espanyol at home, mostly thanks to a great night from Messi who scored three out of five goals for the hosts. The team is now on a run of seven consecutive victories in all competitions, working especially well in attack – they have scored nine goals in last two matches. Tonight, they need a victory over the French side in order to get the first position, while any other result would leave them at the second position – progressing ticket for next stage is already secured almost a month ago. Home side will miss right back Dani Alves (16/0) and offensive midfielder Rafinha (10/0) who are both suspended for this game. Defender Thomas Vermaelen is injured and a long term absentee, who probably won’t be playing for Barcelona this season.

PSG had many problems last weekend in a home game against Nantes, but still managed to get a precious 2:1 three pointer. Visitors took the lead in eight minute, while the hosts replied with two quick goals from Ibrahimovic in 34th and 48th minute. With this victory they continued their title race with Marseille, still being a point below their biggest rival this season. As said, the team currently stands at first position and can’t afford to lose tonight in case they want to remain at the first position. Edison Cavani started from the bench last weekend, but will probably be employed here from the first minute. Marco Verratti is also expected to start here, while the visitors only have substitute forward Jean-Christophe Bahebeck (12/2) as absentee here.

Barcelona will surely enter the game strongly in order to win. Quality difference should be seen on the field, as the players of Barca look much more creative and concrete in the offense than the French side which generally struggled in attack in recent weeks, with or without Ibrahimovic.
Bet: Barcelona -1.25 Asian handicap

Porto vs Shakhtar betting tips by Isaiah

With impressive performance in Belarus, Porto secured their first position in the Champions League group, taking a victory in a very professional way. Final score was 3:0, as the Portuguese side scored goals via Herrera, Martinez and Tello, all three in the second half. After five rounds played, team has 4-1-0 record and has already secured the first position as the Ukrainian side has five points less and can’t catch them. Team is in a very good period, having also five victories in last six matches in domestic league, while they meet Benfica next weekend, so the team will be more focused on that game. Porto has no injury or suspension worries in front of this game.

Having in mind current situation of Portuguese side in their group and with derby game coming for them, the side is expected to rotate few players here and give a chance to some youngsters.

Shakhtar surprisingly lost to Atheletic Bilbao two weeks ago at home with a narrow 0:1 result, but still already have secure the ticket for the next phase and won’t be too worried with that defeat. Only goal was scored by San Jose in 58th minute, even though the teams generally shared impressions. As for the domestic league, Shakhtar currently has three victories in a row, but also are five points behind Dinamo Kiev – position that they are surely not satisfied with. Ukrainian side will have to play here without three key players, as they can’t count at right back and team captain Darijo Srna (5/1 in CL), striker Luiz Adriano (5/9 in CL) and central defender Olexandr Kucher (4/0), all three being suspended. Left back Marcio Avezedo (2/0 in CL) is doubtful for tonight’s game. They are also expected to name a few players that didn’t play so much this season.

Porto have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 matches against Shakhtar. Open game is expected here, as both teams are coming here without much pressure, with few younger players in their squad that are surely aiming to impress here. Betting on goals is worth a shot here, as I reckon chances for three or more goals are well over 50%.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Maribor vs Schalke betting tips by Isaiah

Despite now victory in first five rounds in Champions League, Maribor still has a chance of getting the third position, but only in case they get a victory tonight over Schalke. Slovenians didn’t manage to surprise Sporting away from home suffering 3:1 defeat.

As for the domestic league, they are doing quite well at the moment coming from a 4:1 victory at home against Radomlje. They already had 4:0 lead after sixty minutes, showing complete dominance over much weaker side. They do play well in domestic competitions, but are still only second at the table, having three points less than first placed Domzale. Target is surely to get a victory here, however that’s a bit unrealistic – but, no doubt that the team will try. Maribor could be without right back Petar Stojanovic (4/0) and left back Ales Mejac (3/0) for this game, but the second one is expected to recover in time.

Schalke completely collapsed two weeks ago in the fifth round of Champions League at home against Chelsea, suffering 0:5 defeat. Very little positive things were seen from the German side who had one of the worst performances this season. With a 1-2-2 record so far, Schalke now has to get a victory here in order to keep the chances of progressing alive and hope that Sporing won’t get a victory in London against Chelsea. Coach Roberto Di Matteo still has a long injury list in front of a must win situation. Central defender Joel Matip (7/1), left back Sead Kolasinac (1/0), offensive midfielders Jefferson Farfan (no performance yet), Julian Draxler (11/2) are all already injured for longer period. Offensive midfielders Kevin-Prince Boateng (11/0), Chinedu Obasi (11/1) and Sidney Sam (10/0) and central defender Felipe Santana (3/0) are all suffering from some injuries and their participation will be decided in last moments.

This game now comes as the most important one for Schalke in the season. Disregarding which players will be ready, the Germans have all the chances to walk away with a three pointer as the individual difference between two sides is surely huge.

Bet: Schalke Wins

KEY STATS OF THE DAY

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Juventus's last 6 games in the CL.

Olympiakos have conceded at least 2 goals in 5 of their last 6 matches in the CL.

Atletico have kept a clean sheet in their last 4 matches in the Champions League.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 8 of Monaco's last 9 games in the CL.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 8 of Basel's last 10 games in the CL.

Real have been winning at both half time and full time in 6 of their last 8 matches.

Galatasaray have lost their last 4 matches in the Champions League.

Benfica vs Leverkusen betting tips by Gustav

With a narrow 1:0 defeat away against Zenit two weeks ago, Benfica unfortunately lost all the competitive motives in the group having nothing to play for in the last round. Five matches in Champions League, they got one victory, a draw and two defeats, which won’t be enough even for a Europa League ticket race.

As for domestic league, things are looking much better, with the team having four victories in a row, improved morale and first position with three points more than their biggest rival from Porto. Home side will be without suspended Benfica will be without the suspended central defender Luisao (5/0) who was sent off against Zenit in last round and defensive midfielder Andreas Samaris (5/0) as he picked up third yellow card in the competition. Left back Eliseu (3/0) and defender Silvio (no appearance this season) both remain absent with injuries. With nothing to play for, Benfica is almost sure to give some playing time to youngsters in order to get much needed experience.

Leverkusen, on the other hand, might feel like robbed in the previous Champions League game, as the team had more of the ball possession and much more chances created, but still suffered a narrow 1:0 home defeat against Monaco, French side that actually had only two good chances in the match.

Even so, Germans remained at the first position in the group and in case of a victory here, they have a chance to secure
the first position disregarding the outcome of other match. In any case, they also can’t end up third and playing in Europa League. Generally, in domestic league they aren't showing their full potential, with the team being currently only fourth, behind Bayern, Wolfsburg and Augsburg. Right back Giulio Donati (11/) is doubtful, while Roberto Hilbert could again start at his position. Castro will play in midfield with Stefan Reinartz (12/0) still injured. Central defender and sometimes defensive midfielder, Kyriakos Papadopoulos (5/1) is still out injured as well.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Benfica’s last 3 games in the Champions League. If Benfica had something to play for here, they would probably be close favorites, but in this case, they will probably end up with with a negative result. Leverkusen has much bigger motivation in this one and is now much closer to get the victory, even though the draw still can’t be excluded.

Bet: Leverkusen 0 Asian handicap

Galatasaray vs Arsenal betting tips by Neuro

Galatasaray disappointed a bit in their 2:0 loss away to Anderlecht two weeks ago, as the team had a chance to get the Europa League ticket with a victory here, but showed very little positive things in fourth consecutive Champions League game.

Team completely under performed for whole competition, with the only point being taken at home against Anderlecht in 1:1 draw in the first round –game that should have been won in case the team was aiming for the first two positions. Anyhow, their turned their attention to domestic league already weeks ago, but the team is yet to reach their fullest potential – currently they are second with a point behind leaders from Besiktas. Home side has central midfielders Selcuk Inan (16/0) suspended and Blerim Dzemaili (11/) sidelined due injury, so the team will have certain changes in the middle. Up front, Umut Bulut is expected to attack together with Burak Yilmaz and
supported by Wesley Sneijder behind them.

Arsenal took a 2:0 victory at home against Dortmund in the previous round, even though the team had secured their ticket for the next stage already after first four rounds. Sanogo and Sanchez were goalscorers at the start of each halftime, while the Germans actually played better in both periods, but without scoring any.

Their injury list seems to be getting longer and longer, with coach Arsene Wenger having constantly out midfielders Mesut Ozil (8/1), Jack Wilshere (12/1) and Abou Diaby (no performance yet) and goalkeeper David Ospina (1/0) fixedly out injured. Forward Olivier Giroud (6/2) is not eligible to play in Champions League, while Wenger confirmed that confirmed that Alexis Sanchez and Laurent Koscielny will both be rested, so Calum Chambers and Lukas Podolski will get the starting positions. Defensive midfielder Mikel Arteta (10/1), play maker Tomas Rocisky (5/0) and central defender/left back Nacho Monreal (14/0) are recovering from injuries and probably won’t play here.

Galatasaray have lost their last 4 matches in the Champions League. Galatasaray have conceded at least 2 goals in their last 4 matches in the Champions League. Arsenal have scored at least 2 goals in their last 4 matches in the Champions League.

Open and relaxed game is expected from both sides here. Turkish side will surely want to leave a better impression in the last match, especially cause they are awaiting very well known and strong club with great reputation. Arsenal, on the other side, will surely field up some youngsters who will do anything to prove their worth to Arsene Wenger.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Basel vs Liverpool betting tips by Neuro |

Liverpool is playing far away from the potential they have and something that the fans would expected them to, but tonight they have a chance to make amends and give some more meaning to their season in case the team gets a victory here and get the second position for the next phase of Champions League.

After five rounds played in European best competition, they have only one victory, a draw and three defeats, record that would mean exclusion in many other groups, but as for this one – they are two points behind second placed Basel and need a victory now to continue their run in Champions League. As for Premier League, team is unimpressive so far, but at least they now have three matches undefeated run having two victories and a draw. Coach Brendan Rodgers may opt for more experienced players as this seems to be their most important game of the season. This could mean that left back Jose Enrique might be given a start, while striker Mario Balotelli (11/1) remains injured, but given the way he plays in this season – this might no be a blow for the Reds.

Basel didn’t manage to make a surprise in a home game against Real Madrid before two weeks, suffering a 0:1 narrow defeat. However, thanks to a draw between Ludogorets and Liverpool, they still remained second at the table and now need only a point here in order to progress to the next stage.

Despite a defeat there, they actually left a very good impression as the team didn’t look like weaker at all in comparison to Spaniards. Generally, it could be said that the Swiss team is in a very good form, as they have six victories in a row in domestic competition, combined with a good performance against Real and 4:0 home crushing of Ludogorets. Important striker Marco Streller (12/6) is already out for quite sometime, same as central defender Ivan Ivanov. Midfielder Giovanni Sio had some problems but should be in contention here. Matias Delgado scored twice this weekend and might be given a start ahead of youngster Breel Embolo. Players like Suchy, Frei and Safari were
rested this weekend.

Open game is expected here, at least it simply has to be open as the time progresses, no matter of the score. Liverpool has problems in attack, but they will have to start offensively from the first minute, something that should open up the game and leave many empty spaces for visiting side to threaten them.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Manchester City v Everton Betting Tips and Predictions

Football betting tips for Manchester City v
Everton in the Premier League on Saturday 6th December with expert free football tips. The last four days have proved to be very useful in determining the plausible outcome of this fixture.

Neither side has been particularly convincing this season on the whole, but a narrative is now starting to take shape. Seven goals on the road have supplanted Man City into second position ahead of their south coast pretenders, while Everton twice scored first but only took a combined point from Spurs and Hull.

Don’t be surprised if Everton repeat the trick at the Etihad on Saturday evening. They’ve scored 13 of their 24 goals this season in the first half and Romero Lukaku has contributed 5 of them. Considering this, selecting the Beast from Belgium himself to score seems like a good move. 

Despite Everton’s goalscoring prowess, Man City are clear favourites to win this match on Saturday evening. Sure, Everton haven’t failed to score away from home in the league since April. And sure, their sole away league defeat between that 2-0 defeat to Southampton and Sunday was only courtesy of Tyler Blackett’s derrière at Old Trafford in October. But Man City will almost certainly score more. The last time Everton played the Saturday evening fixture was that crazy 6-3 defeat to Chelsea and, while there won’t be nine goals this time around, expect a fair few.

Newcastle v Chelsea Betting Tips and Predictions

Newcastle vs Chelsea predictions and football betting tips for the Premier League match on Saturday 6th December. Newcastle will be looking to become the first team to beat Chelsea this season when the two sides meet at St James’ Park on Saturday.

A run of six consecutive wins in all competitions by the Magpies ended last weekend with a 1-0 away defeat at West Ham, followed by a 1-1 draw with Burnley on Tuesday. After a poor start to the season, Newcastle now sit 10th in the table and the pressure it would appear is off Alan Pardew for the time being. A surprise win over Chelsea would do the Newcastle manager’s job security no harm, although seems unlikely given the Magpies ever growing injury list.

Tim Krul, Gabriel Obertan and Siem de Jong are key absentees, although Captain Fabricio Colo ccini returns from injury. Alan Pardew will also be able to recall Moussa Sissoko and Jack Colback after the pair missed the draw at Turf Moor through suspension.

Similarly, Diego Costa missed Chelsea’s 3-0 midweek win against Tottenham through suspension and returns to the side. Chelsea’s goalless draw with Sunderland last week was the first time the Blues have failed to score this season. There’s plenty of attacking firepower in the side to cause Newcastle damage, but a possibility the Magpies may respond with at least one goal of their own.

Newcastle have won the last two fixtures between the sides at St James’ Park, although Chelsea won 3-0 the last time the teams played in February at Stamford Bridge. Eden Hazard scored a hat-trick that day and has scored four goals in three games against Newcastle.

Rennes vs Montpellier betting tips by Isaiah

Rennes celebrated their fourth consecutive victory just a couple of days ago against Nice on the road, taking a fairly deserved 2:1 three pointer. Not many offensive phases were seen on the field, but the visiting players did look like much more concrete and determined on the field.

N’tep has scored the opening goal in 12th minute, while Konradsen added second in 49th minute. Hosts were only able to reduce near the end of the game in 83rd via Cvitanich, but without threatening further more. In last nine matches Rennes has seven victories and two draws, as their great run saw the team climbing up to fifth position, just two points away from third placed Lyon. Midfielder Gelson Fernandes (15/0) comes back from suspension, but suffered a knock in training session and is doubtful for tonight’s game. Hosts rested few players during midweek, so Pedro Henrique, Ola Toivonen and Abdoulaye Doucoure will be well-rested for this match. Offensive midfielder Kamil Grosicki (9/0) is already counted as long term absentee.

Having in mind their quality, style of football and overall club’s potential, it seems that the mid table table for Montpellier will be everything they can achieve this season. Team comes from a home loss against St Etienne few days with a 0:2 result.

It was a match where the hosts showed very little, or better to say, almost no positive things, not being able to attack properly even once they had a man more when Diomande got excluded in 78th minute. Anyhow, as said, their objective goal is mid table team and it seems that they will end up their without much problems, but also without really being competitive against any stronger side, especially away from home where they have only one victory out of eight matches and only one goal scored. Midfielder Jean Deza (2/0) is suspended for tonight’s game, while first choice goalkeeper Geoffrey Jourdren (14/0) remains injured.

Rennes have kept a clean sheet in their last 4 home matches in Ligue 1. Rennes have won their last 4 home matches in Ligue 1. Rennes have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 home matches against Montpellier. Rennes plays close to perfectly at the moment, especially at home. They are surely aiming for a victory here and very poor travelers from Montpellier have slim chances to stay undefeated again such an in-form side.

Bet: Rennes Wins

Hannover vs Wolfsburg betting tips by Gustav

Hannover had another entertaining game last weekend, however unfortunately for them they stood without a point earned, coming from a 4:3 defeat away to Hoffenheim. Overall, it was a very open and attacking game in which, actually, the visitors have created more chances and had more of the ball possession.

However, once again the team got punished due too many defensive gaps, as they continue to have very unreliable last lineup, having conceded eighteen goals so far – generally big number for Hannover comparing to previous seasons. They have earned much more points at home, having four victories and two defeats and there is no doubt their target this time will be three pointer, even though they meet against very strong and in-form side. Goalkeeper Markus Miller and central defender Andre Hoffmann are both without performance this season and both continue to be sidelined with long term absentees. Defensive midfielder Leon Andreasen (6/1) and right back Marius Stankevicius (1/0) both remain out injured.

After two consecutive defeats, against Everton in Europa League and away to Schalke in Bundesliga two weeks ago, Wolfsburg managed to bounce back to winning ways with a narrow 1:0 home victory against Gladbach last weekend. Only goal was scored in 12th minute by Knoche.

Even though there were no goals scored till the end, the game remained very open, with both teams having many chances to score, as it seems that the fairer result would be 3:2 or 3:1. They kept the second position, with three points above Leverkusen, while the target for this game surely remains a victory. They have scored ten goals in last three away matches as it generally seems that the team likes to play away from home, probably having less pressure. Left back Ricardo Rodriguez could return here coming from injury. Defensive midfielder Luiz Gustavo comes back from suspension too, while defensive players Patrick Ochs and Felipe Lopes both remain long term absentees.

Hannover have won their last 5 matches against Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg have won 7 of their last 8 matches in the Bundesliga.
Hannover have scored at least 2 goals in their last 5 matches against Wolfsburg. Both teams will enter the game in order to win, both with attacking tactics.

Wolfsburg will search for a victory, but the
hosts are more than dangerous in front of their own crowd. Over goals remains valuable choice here, as it can come even after the first time easily.

Bet: Over 3 goals

Arsenal vs Southampton betting tips by Isaiah

Arsenal pulled out very important victory away from home against West Brom with a narrow 1:0 result. Only goal was scored by Danny Welbeck in 60th minute, while the players of West Brom had no proper answer in attack for the whole game and were stopped with ease.

With this victory behind their backs, they broke a streak of two consecutive losses (away to Swansea and at home against Manchester United), while the team now needs another three pointer in order to keep the race for the Champions League spots. Arsenal’s injury list continues to be very length, as players Kieran Gibbs, Nacho Monreal and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain all picked injury last weekend in a victory over West Brom. On the bright side, goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny is back between the posts, while central defender Laurent Koscielny made return last weekend and will surely boost their morale. Ozil, Ospina, Diaby, Wilshere and Walcott all continue to be long term absentees.

Southampton was completely outplayed last weekend, for the first time this season, as the team suffered unexpectedly easy loss at home against Manchester City 0:3. The game was quite balanced in the first halftime, but the visitors entered the second half with upped tempo and looked more than dominant.

Even though Citizens were left playing with a man less since 74th minute when Mangala got red carded, visitors remained better on the field and managed to score two more goals in last ten minutes of the game – exactly when the hosts were expected to attack and revert the score. Defensive midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin (15/3) picked up an injury in a defeat against Citizens and will miss this game. On the bright side, other defensive midfielder Jack Cork (10/2) is back for this game. Midfielder James Ward- Prowse (5/0) and forward Sam Gallagher (no performance this season) are out injured.

There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Arsenal’s last 6 home games in the Premier League. Open game is expected here, with both teams switching to attacking formations this time. Arsenal comes from a victory and will surely play to get another one, while it’s hard to imagine that the visitors will once again stay without a goal scored, having in mind what quality they have in offensive lineup.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Everton vs Hull betting tips by Isaiah

Everton had quite a nice performance last weekend, but didn’t manage to stay undefeated away to Tottenham in their 2:1 narrow loss. They took the lead in 15th minute with a goal from Mirallas, while the hosts replied well with two goals till the halftime (21st minute Eriksen and 45th Soldado).

However, it has to be said that the visiting side had much more of the ball possession and had quite fair amount of goalscoring chances, actually deserving a draw in that game. They are having three victories at home in last four matches in all competitions and are surely aiming for another one tonight as they would approach even closer to European positions in case of a victory. James McCarthy and Steven Naismith are back in contention for this game after sitting out previous match. Central defenders John Stones (5/0) and Antolin Alcatraz (3/0) and left back Bryan Oviedo (1/0) and defensive midfielder Darron Gibson (6/0) all remain sidelined with long term injuries.

Hull didn’t manage to be competitive in away clash against Manchester United as they suffered 3:0 defeat. Game was already decided in the first halftime as the hosts had 2:0, while the visitors generally didn’t show anything in attack and had one of the most unimpressive performances in the season.

This was fourth consecutive defeat for the team, as they now have entered the relegation zone, having only a point less than rock bottom placed Leicester. Team is playing very uncreative and unimpressive football having scored only a single goal in last five encounters, quite lucky and early goal at home against Spurs three weeks ago. Offensive midfielder Gaston Ramirez (8/0) is suspended for this one, while forward Abel Hernandez (8/3) has been given a week of absence following birth of his child. Attacking midfielders Robert Snodgrass (1/0) and Robbie Brady (8/0)
will miss here too.

Everton have scored at least 2 goals in 11 of their last 12 home matches in the Premier League. Everton have scored at least 2 goals in their last 7 matches against Hull. Everton have won 5 of their last 6 matches against Hull.

Everton is playing very well in recent weeks, as they had eight matches undefeated run before last weekend. They did much better at home in previous games and have every reason to be big favorites against completely out of form Hull, team that hardly scores in away matches.

Bet: Everton Wins @ 1.55

Lille vs PSG betting tips by Neuro

Lille continues their poor form with a narrow 1:0 loss away to Bordeaux last weekend. Neither of the teams tried to much on the field, with the players of Lille looking just a bit more active, scoring the only goal in 62nd minute from Diabate.

Visitors didn’t manage to reply for the remaining thirty minutes, neither looking like they want to – as the team shows great lack of quality in the creative midfield and attack. They are now on a run of ten matches with not a single victory in all competitions as they now stand only two points away from relegation zone. Atmosphere is pretty poor right now, while the team can’t count on more positive result after this game. Very important central defender Marko Basa (16/0) is having a hamstring injury and won’t perform, as well as offensive midfielder Marcos Lopes (9/1). Coach Girard is happy to have Sébastien Corchia, Franck Beria and Pape Souare back here.

PSG now earned their ninth victory in a row in all competitions, coming from a 1:0 victory over Nice at home. Only goal was scored via penalty kick in 15th minute by Ibrahimovic, while the team didn’t show anything special for the whole game, being obviously satisfied with the narrow lead.

After Tuesday’s setback of Marseille in a 1:1 draw away to Lorient, PSG now has a chance to get back to the first position in case of a victory here. They are still undefeated in the league with 9-6-0 record, while it seems that poor form of their creative midfielders is past now and that the team scores with more ease in recent weeks. Marco Verratti is available here according to their coach Blanc. Thiago Motta and David Luiz are likely to sit out here and be rested. Substitute central midfielder Clement Chantome (8/0) and midfielder Yohan Cabaye (11/1) are out injured for this one.

PSG have won their last 6 matches in Ligue 1. Lille have lost 5 of their last 6 matches in Ligue 1. Lille have seen over 2.5 goals in their last 3 home matches against PSG. Having in mind both team’s forms, it’s hard to imagine anything but away victory here. PSG might rest once again their biggest star Ibrahimovic, but they have much more quality in whole roster and the hosts shouldn’t be able to
stay competitive with them for whole ninety minutes.

Bet: PSG Wins @ 1.78

Nice vs Rennes betting tips by Isaiah

Nice couldn’t do much more last weekend, as the team visited PSG and actually pulled out quite a good performance in only narrow 1:0 defeat. Only goal was scored in 15th minute from a penalty kick from Ibrahimovic, as the home team looked like satisfied with a narrow victory for the whole game.

Despite huge ball possession on their side, they didn't create many chances, while Nice actually had quite nice share of chances created, but without any goal scored. Even though they played well, team now has fourth match in a row without a victory, as they continue to be in the middle of the table, four points above the relegation zone. Coach Claude Puel will not be able to call on central defender Didier Digard (5/0) and his defending partner Mathieu Bodmer (9/1) once again due to injury. Play maker Carlos Eduardo didn’t play in previous game, but should
start here.

Rennes pulled out very important 2:0 victory at home against Bordeaux last weekend. Team opened the game in the best possible way, as they scored two goals in first twenty minutes (own goal and goal from Toivonen), sealing the victory with ease in the remaining of the match.

This was their third consecutive victory, as the team also has no defeat in last eight matches in all competitions, showing very good form at the moment. They climbed up to sixth position at the moment, being only two points below the Champions League places while their atmosphere surely now can’t be much higher in the locker room. Very important defensive midfielder Gelson Fernandes (15/0) is suspended for this game, while the visitors also can’t count at offensive midfielder Kamil Grosicki (8/0), doubtful is central midfielder Sanjin Prcic (7/0). After three months of recovery time, Christian Bruls is now ready to compete for a starting spot on the wing.

Rennes have won their last 3 matches in Ligue 1. Rennes plays more than well at the moment and have every chance to walk away with something here. On the other hand, Nice will be playing for a victory here, in an attacking manner they always do at home. Goals are expected here, with chances for both teams to score being bigger than 50%.

Bet: Both teams to score

Manchester United vs Stoke betting tips by Neuro

For the first time this season, Manchester United took their third consecutive victory last weekend as the team welcomed Hull City and crushed them with a 3:0 result. From the first till last minute, it was obvious that the players from Manchester were much better, simply outplayed opponent and had one of better performances this season.

Smalling, Rooney and van Persie scored their goals for a victory that pushed the team to fourth position as it now seems that obtaining a Champions League ticket might be reality for them, in case the team builds up on this result and continues with positive performances. Wayne Rooney and Jonny Evans are doubtful, but with every chance to be able to play. Angel Di Maria limped off against Hull and might not be risked here, while Falcao looks sure to start upfront after his great performance in the same game. Coach Louis van Gaal continues to be without Rafael, Daley Blind, Phil Jones and James Wilson, most of them counting as long term absentees.

Stoke City comes from a narrow 1:0 defeat away from home against Liverpool last weekend, even though the team defended well for the most of the game. Only goal was scored in 85th minute by Johnson, while the team actually shared impressions and no doubt that the draw would have been much more fairer result.

Even though their mid table position is fine at the moment, the club’s management would surely like to be more far from the relegation battle, as Stoke currently has only four points more than relegation worried sides. No doubt that they will try to get something here, but the tradition is not working for them at Old Trafford as they have lost quite easily all previous six meetings. Defensive midfielder Gleen Whelan (8/0) returned in previous match, but again picked up an injury and will sit out this one. Other defensive midfielder Steve Sidwell (6/0) also won’t play, as well as forward Peter Odemwingie, central defender Robert Huth and important offensive midfielder Victor Moses who are all injured.

It looks like Manchester United is slowly starting to look like a team and are playing more reliable football in recent
weeks. Stoke is far away from a force away from home and might easily lose their competitiveness during the match in
case one of United offensive players gets close to his full potential.
Bet: Manchester Utd -1.25

Swansea vs QPR betting tips by Neuro

Swansea was held to a 1:1 home draw last weekend against Crystal Palace, even though it looked like their players deserved something more out of the match. Both goals were scored in the first half, with hosts taking a lead in 15th minute by Bony, while the guests equalized in 25th minute from a penalty spot and a goal from Jedinak.

Even though they have only one victory in last four matches, team played quite well in all matches, as they previously lost narrowly away to Manchester City, winning at home over Arsenal and getting a draw against Everton. They are only two points behind the European positions, but having great 4-2-1 record at home, there is no doubt that their only target tonight will be getting the three pointer, easy or hard. Wayne Routledge made his return last weekend and now should retain his position. Jordi Amat continues to recover from injury, but will surely not be risked
here. Hosts also miss their central defender Federico Fernandez (7/0) who already counts as long term absentee.

QPR finally managed to make a positive result in a home match last weekend against Leicester celebrating a 3:2 victory. Both teams had many ups and downs in their performances, as the guests took the lead in fourth minute, but were the hosts responded well near the end of the first halftime with two goals.

Leicester equalized in 67th minute, but QPR scored their third via Austin several minutes later to get deserved victory which could have actually been even with a bigger margin. Despite the victory, they remain in the relegation zone, but now tied with safely placed Hull. Their biggest problem this season remain with away matches, having six defeats in as many matches and only two goals scored so far. Left back Yun Suk-Young (6/0) limped off in a game against Leicester and will miss here. Offensive midfielder Adel Taarabt (2/0) and defensive midfielders Sandro (8/0) and Alejandro Faurlin (2/0) are all sidelined with injuries.

Just a couple of weeks ago, Swansea won at home over Arsenal, are playing steadily well in recent games and shouldn’t blow this chance to get another home three pointer. QPR simply seems to weak away from home and even these odds look more than valuable having in mind their form.
Bet: Swansea Wins

Burnley vs Newcastle betting tips by Neuro

After two consecutive victories in Premier League and escape from the rock bottom position, Burnley only drew at home against Aston Villa with a 1:1 result last weekend. Cole brought the visiting side into 1:0 lead in 38th minute and it looked for a long time that the visitors will get all three points.

However, hosts upped their tempo in the last quarter and took a point thanks to penalty kick from Ings in 87th minute. Still, has to be said that if anyone would feel unsatisfied with the result – it should be guests who did more on the field and could have scored the second time on many occasions during the second half. Midfielder Matthew Taylor (3/0) and forward Sam Vokes are both sidelined through injury. Central defender Michael Duff (12/0) and defensive midfielder Nathaniel Chalobah (4/0) are both doubtful and it won’t be surprise if the coach decides not to risk them in this match.

After a run of six consecutive victories in all competitions, Newcastle suffered defeat last weekend when the team visited West Ham and surely showed their weakest performance in weeks – hence, were deservedly defeated. Only goal was scored by Cressewell in 56th minute.

Guests did have some good phases, but it was simply too little in comparison to their previous games, while they couldn’t push in last quarter, as one of their players – Sissoko got red carded in 76th minute. After this defeat, they slipped down to ninth position, but still having only three less than Champions League placed Manchester United. Bunch of players are once again out for them, as
they can’t count at suspended midfielder Moussa Sissoko (13/1) and defensive midfielder Jack Colback (13/0). Daryl
Janmaat, Massadio Haidara and Michael Williamson are all having injury problems, but have traveled with the squad. Obertan, de Jong, Aarons and Taylor remain long term absentees.

Once again, Newcastle missed bunch of players, but they made a great run without most of them playing. Burnley is on a nice run at the moment, but winning here would be too much for them right now. Draw can’t be excluded, but the visiting side surely has some more quality and experience.
Bet: Newcastle 0 Asian handicap

Lorient vs Marseille Betting Tips by Neuro

Lorient surprised everyone with a 3:2 victory away from home against Toulouse last weekend, as the team undoubtely proved that they are in a very good period having won now two consecutive matches, previously defeating Lens with a narrow 1:0 result.

Victory over Toulouse came with three goals within five minutes early in the second half, but the team deserved all three points as they were much more concrete and lively for the whole match. Good mini run saw them climbing up to the 15th position and getting out of the relegation battle, as the team surely have improved their atmosphere inside the locker room. In tonight’s game, they want to repeat previous performances and show that these two results are not coincidence. Jordan Ayew is expected to start in attack against is former club. Hosts will be here without forward Valentin Lavigne (12/3) and attacking midfielder Yann Jouffre (9/0) both out injured. Coach Sylvan Ripoll will have few players doubtful, between them Mathieu Coutadeur, Alain Traore and Gilles Sunu, but all three are expected to recover on time.

Marseille, on the other hand, comes from a clearly professional 2:0 victory at home over Nantes last weekend. Thauvin and Fanni scored goals in the first halftime, while the home team had no big problems keeping the result, even though the tempo felt in the second half and Nantes was able to produce some solid attacks.

With this victory behind their backs, Marseille continued their title race with PSG, again having a point more than their most serious rival this season. After a great start away from home and a run of four victories and only one draw, team now experienced two recent defeats and will want to get back to winning ways, which comes now as a must thing in case they want to remain first. Visiting side won’t be able to count at striker Andrew Ayew (12/2) who is already missing for few weeks, while outside will also remain midfielder Romain Alessandrini (12/1) both injured. Coach Bielsa will surely respond here with attacking formation and his standard three man defense.

As always, Marseille will surely employ very attacking formation, while Lorient comes into this game with improved morale and having little to lose. Both teams prefer open style and we could see them scoring easily after the first halftime already.
Bet: Both teams to score

Nantes vs Toulouse Betting Tips by Neuro

Nantes couldn’t resist last weekend when they visited one of the most in-form sides Marseille and suffered quite easy 2:0 defeat. Hosts simply opened the game very well, took double lead already in the first halftime and even though visitors had some good phases, they kept the clean sheet with ease.

This was their second consecutive match without a goal scored, but the team still remains quite high at the table, having earned twenty four points so far being only three points away from Champions League positions. However, they have four consecutive draws at home and are surely looking to get a victory for once, breaking quite unimpressive streak. Coach Michel Der Zakarian might rotate his squad a little during the midweek, as Yacine Bammou (forward, 14/2) has a thigh problem, but should be able to recover on time. Central defender Koffi Djidji is long term absentee, but anyway hasn’t play a single minute this season.

After a very good start in the season, Toulouse seems to be entering very poor form at the moment as nothing seems to be working for them right now. Most recently, they suffered 2:3 home loss against Lorient, a game where many predicted they will obtain three points with ease.

It has to be said that the team conceded all three goals within five minutes, from 55th to 60th minute however it wasn’t only up to their poor period in five minutes, as the guests overall looked like more lively team and generally deserved the victory. As said, team is all kind of problems now, as the pressure rises from game to game, as they have only one victory and six defeats in last seven matches in all competitions. Team captain and central midfielder Abel Aguilar (13/0) will have to sit this one out due to suspension. Left back William Matheus (2/0) and midfielder Mihai Roman already count as long term absentees. Coach Alain Casanova will continue to stick to his 3-5-2 formation
despite many critics in recent weeks.

Even though neither of the teams are fully reliable at the moment, Nantes have to be given advantage this time. They are doing very well at home, while Toulouse goes nowhere with their form currently and simply can’t see them getting away with all three points, even though the draw can’t be excluded.
Bet: Nantes 0 Asian handicap

Weekend Football Accumulator Tip for Saturday By Marc McRobert

Saturday’s Accumulator Tip

Preston to beat Bradford
Both these two have faltered recently but I fully expect Preston to get back to winning ways. North End had a confidence boosting victory in the FA Cup last week and will use that to kick start their promotion campaign. With on fire marksman Joe Garner already in double figures this term they should have enough to beat The struggling Bantams. Bradford have only a single victory in their last 8 league games and will do very well to come away from this one with anything.

Sheffield United to beat Doncaster.
With Sheffield United in the headlines for different reasons this week, they will be happy to get back onto the pitch. The anti post League One favourites will be wanting to put a run together soon so that they can have a say in the automatic promotion race and this could be the perfect day to start that. Doncaster have struggled to adapt to life back in League One and have won just once at home all season.

Shrewsbury to beat Mansfield
Shrewsbury are flying high at the moment after a five match winning run in League 2 and currently occupy an automatic promotion spot. They look a good bet to notch another victory in this one against lowly Mansfield. The Stags haven't won in their last six and have scored just three goals in that time. The lack of potency up front is starting to drag Mansfield towards the drop zone and that is set to continue against one of the league favourites for the title.

Southend to beat Hartlepool
Southend could be a real threat in the division if they could find some consistency. Phil Brown has put together a strong squad and a play-off position will be the minimum of their ambitions this term. Hartlepool sit bottom of the table and have only a single league victory in eleven and their lack of goals (just 12 all
season) must be a real concern for the fans. This is a great chance for The Seasiders to put last weeks FA Cup defeat behind them and to concentrate on promotion.

Luton to beat Tranmere
Since relegation last season Tranmere have found it hard to get going this campaign and at present are second from bottom in The League Two standings. They haven't won a league match since August and back to back relegations is becoming a real possibility. Luton are heading in the other direction having won seven out of their last eight. The Hatters
are full of confidence and I can't see them dropping any points here.

Match Result and Both Teams to Score Betting Tip

There may be an international break but still plenty of Football League and Non-League action this Saturday and we have a free accumulator betting tip.

Match Result and Both Teams to Score Betting Tip

Preston to Beat Bradford and Both Teams to Score 5/2:
Monday’s FA Cup success turned the corner after back to back defeats for North End and they need to return to winning ways in the league if they are to keep hold of an automatic promotion spot. Both of those recent defeats did come away from home and Preston have won 5 on the spin at home with both sides scoring in 3 of their last four. Bradford are without a win in their last 5 but both teams have scored in 4 of them matches, home win but goals should fly for our next accumulator selection.

Shrewsbury to Beat Mansfield and Both Teams to Score 14/5:
5 straight league wins means Shrewsbury are putting serious pressure on the top of League 2. Combine this with the fact they are unbeaten at home in the league this season they are a good shout here. Despite their good form they’ve kept just 2 clean sheets in seven matches and both teams have scored in 2 of their last 3 at home. Mansfield are without a win in their last 7 but they have drawn 3 of them. No wins in 5 is poor away form but both teams have scored in 3 of them, Shrewsbury are the better side here but their defence isn’t the securest.

Eastleigh to Beat Lincoln and Both Teams to Score 23/10:
You may have a feeling of de ja vu about this pick after it was also a selection last week as the sides met in the FA Cup. Eastleigh won 2-1 that day and there’s no reason to expect anything else here. Eastleigh are unbeaten in their last 6 with both teams scoring in 5 of them games and they have won 4 in a row at home with both teams scoring in each of them
games. Both teams have scored in Lincoln’s last 6 away and they haven’t won in that time. Another Eastleigh win looks good here.

Plymouth v Portsmouth Betting Tips and Predictions By Jack Critchley

The FA Cup provided a temporary break from the exertions of the league, but it’s back to the bread and butter of League Two as Plymouth take on Portsmouth in the televised game on Saturday lunchtime.

Plymouth sent AFC Fylde packing following a long journey to Home Park with a solid and professional 2-0 victory whilst Portsmouth laboured to a 2-2 draw with Aldershot from the division below and will have to have a replay to make it into round 2. Plymouth have been in tremendous form in recent weeks, whilst Pompey have started picking up points
and have moved into 9th place. They are particularly effective on their home patch, but struggle on the road.

The Pilgrims haven’t lost on home soil since high flying Wycombe visited Home Park on the 16th September and recorded a 1-0 win. They’ve been consistent and have conceded few goals. They also picked up a creditable 1-1 draw at Burton on their last league outing. They may be only 3 places higher than their
opposition, but I am predicting home advantage will be a huge factor and they should be able to see off their South Coast rivals. Paul Robinson is suspended for Portsmouth, a small disruption in defence won't do anything to help Portsmouth’s cause.

Plymouth to win at 6/5 is my first betting
tip for Plymouth v Portsmouth on Saturday afternoon. Plymouth have only conceded twice at home this season in the league, once to Stevenage and once at the aforementioned match against Wycombe. This is a superb record and the defensive stability of Peter
Hartley and Curtis Nelson as well as Carl McHugh & Anthony O’Connor has paid off with few concessions this season.

Portsmouth on the other hand have only
scored 3 times away from home in the League and may struggle to provide the firepower to infiltrate the watertight back line. They have improved significantly offensively, but I think this game will be tight and goals will be scarce.

Our next Plymouth v Portsmouth prediction is for under 2.5 goals to be the scores at 4/6. Reuben Reid didn’t find the net against AFC Fylde, but he is still Plymouth’s top scorer by a distance and as penalty taker, he is a decent bet to be first goalscorer in this game. The former Yeovil man is hot property at this level and has chipped in with several important
goals this season. He has scored 9 goals in all competitions and assisted by Marvin Morgan, who got on the score sheet at the weekend, he is a good bet to find the net early on in the match. Reuben Reid to score first goal 9/2 is our final football betting tip this weekend.

Vestsjaelland vs Viborg BK betting tips 21 Mar by NikolajMadsen

Vestsjaelland vs Viborg BK betting tips 21 Mar by NikolajMadsen:



So, my last prediction did not go as planned. After Randers deservedly took the lead they unfortunately had to make two substitutions in their defensive line due to injuries which really shattered their defensive line.



Moving on to Friday a new clash in the bottom of the Danish Superliga are to be played when FC Vestsjaelland are welcoming Viborg FF. There are a lot at stake for both teams as FC Vestsjaelland finds themselves three points above the drop-zone while Viborg FF is already in it.



FC Vestsjaelland is coming from a very surprising away win against FC Nordsjaelland on 1-2. Not many teams manage to steal all three points when visiting FC Nordsjaelland, which I think will give FC Vestsjaelland a big boost before more vital points, is at stake against Viborg FF. FC Vestsjaelland has lately been characterized by their dominance in the air, which is also the main factor behind several goals in the previous matches.



On both sides they have competent wing-backs, in Peter Nymann/Oliver Lund and Michael Lumb, who are able to deliver dangerous crosses into the box. Oliver Lund is, however, ill at the moment but should be ready for Friday. Former Nigerian international, Edward Ofere, signed this winter, have already proved to be a great addition to the attacking line and have already scored two goals in his first four appearances. The defence of FC Vestsjaelland is beginning to look better with Jean Bozga who, despite making a defensive mistake against FC Nordsjaelland, proves as a great asset in the air duels along with his partner, Lasse Nielsen, who earned a spot in The Superliga Team of the Week, according to the Danish sports paper, Tipsbladet. The only player out for Vestsjaelland is striker, Joel Tshibamba, as he has been for one and a half month.



Viborg FF, on the other side, comes from a 1-1 draw in Odense where they despite going behind ended up snatching a point from a goal by the Superliga topscorer with 15 goals this season, Thomas Dalgaard. Thomas Dalgaard is really a one-man army and has won many points for Viborg FF and in my opinion the main reason that the club is not certain for one of the relegation spots already. Though they have some wing-players of decent quality in Alexandar Stankov, Kevin Mensah, Lucas Jensen and David Boysen, I consider many of their players more fit for the Danish 1st Division. Out with injuries for Viborg FF are striker, Danilo Arrieta and the two defenders Fredrik Stoor and Jonas Thorsen.



I think this match will involve a lot of fighting which will cause a lot of free kicks that can lead to dangerous set-pieces which I think will turn out to be an advantage for FC Vestsjaelland. I think it will be a close encounter and I am not denying that Viborg FF could score with Thomas Dalgaard up front, but I think that FC Vestsjaelland, with a boosted morale and superior air-assets, will prevail here.

Tours vs CA Bastia betting tips 21 Mar by Jim_p3

Tours vs CA Bastia betting tips 21 Mar by Jim_p3:



Tours are coming from the last defeat against Brest 2:0, even though they had chances to score but in the end they lost.They conceded the first goal from penalty and when the second goal was scored they couldn't do more.Currently in the 8th position they have a total of 42 points.In home games Tours are very strong.They've lost only 1 time from a total of past 15 matches (including two Cup games).They score lot's of goals and are very disciplined in defense, in home games,with a goal difference of 29:16.Tours lost only 1 match at home this season.Bastia are in the last place with 17 points.They managed to win the last match against Troyes with a minimal result of 1:0, but was enough to take 3 points that are very important to them,even though escaping from relegation zone is impossible.This season they only won 3 times in 28 weeks.In away matches they are terrible having lost 4 of the last 5 matches.The match between them in the first half of the season ended in a victory for Tours 1:2, and probably it will repeat again.



Tours are going to miss many defense players.Samuel Bouhours(groin),Jerome Guihoata(calf),Fousseni Diawara(suspension) and Nicolas Seguin(recovery).



Bastia will be without Romain Pastorelli and Jean-Jacques Mandrichi ,who are injured.Good news is that Moussa Traore is back with the team after the knee injury.



Tours are favorites for the match, but looking at the injured defense and Bastia needing the points more then ever, we can see a surprise draw.I think the best pick for this match is with goals so I choose over 2.5.

Lorient vs PSG betting tips 21 Mar by Kamlesh

Lorient vs PSG betting tips 21 Mar by Kamlesh:



Lorient have severely dropped form. In fact, in their last 8 matches, they have won only once, drew thrice and lost four times. Nevertheless, they have a good home record, having lost only twice this season. But their defence is not good at the moment as in their last 8 matches, they have conceded at least 1 goal in 7 of them. They have even more problems with key players missing. Defender Guerreiro (26/0), defender Gassama (suspended 16/0), midfielder Barthelme (13/1) and forward Sunu (13/0) are expected to be out while midfielder Coutadeur (10/1) and midfielder Diallo (23/3) are very doubtful.



PSG, on the other hand, are in great form at the moment. They are top of the league and they have won 7 consecutive matches in all competitions with 5 clean sheets, conceding only 3 goals while scoring 20 goals. They are also undefeated in their last 10 away matches with 2 draws and 8 wins. Possessing the best attack and best defence in the league, they have scored at least 2 goals in 19 of their last 22 matches in the league. Only defender Van der Wiel (21/0) is doubtful. Otherwise, they can count on all their best players for this game.



The Lorient coach Gourcuff often criticizes the PSG coach Laurent Blanc and the PSG striker Ibrahimovic (28/25), stating that he does not find them worth all the praise. As such, PSG will be fully motivated to punish Lorient in this match by inflicting another defeat on them to show their supremacy over them. Besides, Lorient have some important players missing which will make it even harder for them to stop a PSG in great form at the moment from scoring and winning.



Last 2 encounters between these teams ended as follows:



PSG 4 - 0 Lorient



Lorient 1 - 3 PSG (red card)



PSG Asian Handicap -1
