Bordeaux
Bordeaux lost 1-2 to Lyon in the last round of away games. The previous 3-game winning streak was ended, which had a certain impact on morale. Bordeaux has always been the strength of the mid-range team, there is not much pressure. This season they have 5 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at 11 home games, their performance is good.
Lille
Norwich has been hit in a row recently, first being eliminated in the FA Cup, then getting a red card in the game against Middlesbrough, and finally only getting 1 point. The current lead has been reduced to 4 points, in order to ensure that they can win the championship, the team must go all out.
Verdict:
Norwich has a great advantage in strength, and the opponent's home performance is also very bad. The Asian handicap live odd is Norwich-0.25, which means lacked of confidence to the home team. Norwich should win this game.
Millwall VS Norwich City
Pick: Norwich City-0.25

Burnley
It is out of expectation that they defeat Liverpool at 1-0, which seems that they are getting well. Now they are the fifteenth in the table of the League with 22 points, far away from relegation.
Manchester City
They have a twelve-match winning streak recently. Now they are the top of the table in the League even if they play one less game than others. There is no weakness of them. They have scored 37 goals and conceded only 13 goals. They are the favourites to win the champion.
Verdict:
The Asian handicap first odd is Manchester City -1.75. Manchester City take the upper hand over Burnley in every aspect. There is no doubt that Manchester City are going to win.

Goals in Match: 2-3 goals

Real Valladolid
They play poorly as they did in last season. Now they are the sixteenth in the table of the League with 20 points, only 2 points higher than the relegation zone. If they do not struggle hard, they have to fight for relegation.
SD Huesca
They are the newly-promoted this season. It seems that they have not adapted to the League. So far, they have got only one victory. They are sitting in the bottom of the table. Thanks to a draw in last game against Villarreal end their five-match losing streak.
Verdict:
Real Valladolid get 3W-2D-5L from SD Huesca in the past, which take the lower hand. The Asian handicap first odd is Real Valladolid -0.25, high return. The Euro odds is 2.36-3.16-3.17. The victory is tending to the host.
Real Valladolid VS SD Huesca
Pick: Real Valladolid -0.25

VfB Stuttgart
They have been winless for three matches and even suffer a two-match losing streak. It is because they are so weak in defensive that they have conceded almost 2 goals in recent games. In addition, they have not got any victory as host this season yet.
FSV Mainz 05
They are getting well recently. It is surprising that they draw with Borussia Dortmund and then win over RB Leipzig at 3-2 in last game. But they still have a far way to go because they are the seventeenth in the table of the League.
Verdict:
VfB Stuttgart have lost to FSV Mainz 05 for four times in past five head-to-head clashes. However, VfB Stuttgart have home advantage. The Asian handicap first odd is VfB Stuttgart -0.75. It time for VfB Stuttgart to make a revenge.

Southampton
With the help of their top scorer, Danny Ings, The Saints have scored 26 goals this season so far. Now they are the tenth in the table of the League. And they defeat Arsenal in last game of England FA Cup. They are full of ambitions to rank top sixth.
Arsenal
They are getting well in recent games, taking 13 points from Newcastle United, Crystal Palace, WBA, Brighton Hove Albion and Chelsea, which makes them up to the eleventh in the table of the League. They lose to Southampton in last game. It is time for them to make a revenge.
Verdict:
Both of them are in good form. Southampton have psychological advantage because they win over Arsenal in last game. The Asian handicap first odd is Arsenal -0.25. The result of the game is suggested be a draw.
Southampton VS Arsenal
Pick: Arsenal -0.25
-
Crystal Palace
They are in poor state recently. They have been almost winless except a 2-0 victory over Sheffield United in last game. And they have been knocked out of England FA Cup. Seeing from the statistics, they are weak on both offensive and defensive.
West Ham United
They play well after bringing in foreign players. With a five-match winning streak recently, they rank the seventh in the table of the League. There are only two points separating them from the sixth. It is likely for them to be in European games zone.
Verdict:
There is a big gap between Crystal Palace and West Ham United. The Iron are in good form with a five-match winning streak. The Asian handicap first odd is West Ham United -0.25. West Ham United are going to take three points from Crystal Palace as expected.
Crystal Palace VS West Ham United
Prediction: 0-1, 0-2

Bristol City
Bristol City ranked 12th in last season. In this season, they got 11W-3D-10L after 24 rounds, ranking 9th with 36 points. And they just got 3 draws since the League. In last England FA Cup, they beat Millwall with 3:0 as away side and advanced into next stage, being in high morale.
Huddersfield Town
Huddersfield Town are in good home forms for they got 22 points in last 13 home games, while they just won 2 out of last 12 away games. They suffered consecutive 4 losses since they were b eaten by Millwall with 0:1 in last home game, being in low morale.
Betting Verdict:

1X2 Pick: 1

Millwall
Millwall got 6th position in last season, but in the new season, they just rank 16th with 29 points, 9 points ahead of the relegation zone. In last England FA Cup, they were beaten by Bristol City with 0:3, and they ended their previous winless record (2d-2l) by beating Huddersfield Town with 1:0 in last away game. But their home forms are still poor.
Watford
Watford are the relegated team from Premier League. After 25 rounds of the new season, they rank 3rd with 46 points. Also, they achieved consecutive 3 wins since they beat Stoke City with 2:1 in last away game.

SC Farense
Farense’ performance this season was not ideal. After 13 league rounds, the team only achieved 3 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses. They ranked bottom 3rd in the league with 12 points. The team mainly relies on home scores. The unbeaten rate reached 71%, and nearly 4 home games achieved 3 wins and 1 tie.
FC Porto
Porto has performed well this season, with 10 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in 14 rounds. It is currently ranked 2nd and only 4 points away from the top. It has a high fighting spirit. They have the strongest offensive ability in the league, averaging 2.57 goals per game and can score every game in the league this season.
Verdict:
The strength gap between the two sides is huge, and even at home, this disadvantage cannot be smoothed out. The Asian handicap live odd is Porto-1.25, obvious support the away team. Porto should win this game easily.

Pick: FC Porto-1.25

Brighton Hove Albion - The Seagulls
There is a seagull on their logo. But it used to be a dolphin until 1977. Brighton is a coastal city and has association with dolphin. It is Said to have been invented by supporters in a West Street pub on Christmas Eve 1975 as a response to the Crystal Palace chant of ‘Eagles, Eagles!’ the cry ‘Seagulls, Seagulls!’ rapidly caught on.

Aston Villa - Villans
The name Villa derives from Villa Cross Wesleyan Chapel, an actual villa once stood in the area, large enough to be a landmark. Aston Villa was set up there. Villans is a coined word. Sometimes people mistake it for Villains.

A nice bit of reading there, @ALEXXXXXXXX. Keen to hear about the others! I find nicknames of teams very interesting and love hearing about their origin.
Thanks. I will keep it on.

Fulham
Fulham has not won 9 consecutive rounds in the league and fell into the relegation zone again. The situation of relegation is more dangerous. However, the team has recently made improvements in defense. 3 of the last 7 games have not conceded, but they also ended 0-0. However, Fulham's offense was really bad, and only scored 15 goals in 18 rounds.
Burnley
Burnley is also a very weak offensive team. The team has only scored 10 goals so far in the league, and the problem on the defensive end is very serious. However, they defeated Liverpool in the last round of the game, and they had beaten Wolves and Arsenal before and drew with Everton. It can be seen that the team can sometimes create surprises.
Verdict:
There is not much difference in strength between the two sides, but Burnley's recent situation is slightly better than the other. The Asian handicap live odd is Fulham-0.25, seems lacked of confidence to the home team. Burnley should at least get draw in this game.
Fulham VS Burnley
Pick: Burnley+0.25

Real Sociedad
They play so well in the beginning of this season. It seems that they are fatigued recently. They have been winless for three matches until they win over Cordoba in last game of Spanish Copa Del Rey. Now they are sitting the fifth place in the table of the League.
Real Betis
They have a four-match winning streak in various League and Tournaments recently, with 9 scoring goals and 2 conceding goals. Even if they play as traveller, they are too competitive to be ignored. At present, they rank the eighth in the table of the League with 26 points.
Verdict:
Real Sociedad get 4W-4D-2L from Real Betis in the past. The Asian handicap first odd is Real Sociedad -0.5. Although Real Sociedad rank higher than Real Betis in the table of the League, Real Betis are in better form recently. So the victory is tending to the guest team.
Real Sociedad VS Real Betis
Pick: Real Sociedad -0.5
-
Monaco
They play well this season, with 55% winning percentage, ranking the fourth in the table of the League. They have been unbeaten for five matches with 4W-1D and they even scored 11 goals during that time with the help of Ben Yedder Wissam and Kevin Volland.
Marseille
They are sitting the sixth place in the table of the League with 32 points. They are in poor state because of a three-match losing streak. They play well on defensive, with 1 conceding goal in average.
Verdict:
Monaco get 4W-3D-3L from Marseille in the past. The Asian handicap first odd is Monaco -0.75, high return, which shows great support to them. The Euro odds is 1.81-3.86-4.00. So the host team are going to win.
Monaco VS Marseille
Pick: Monaco -0.75

Udinese
They have been winless for eight matches. It is not easy for them to take one point from Atalanta in last game. Obviously they play rather poorly on offensive, with 20 scoring goals in total, which are the last four weakest offensive team in the League.
Inter Milan
Thanks to their key player, Nicolo Barella, they win over Juventus at 2-0 in last game. At present, they are sitting the second place in the table of the League, only three points away from the first, AC Milan. So if they get three points in the upcoming game, they will rank the top in the League.
Verdict:
Udinese play so poorly on offensive that they have got only 2 scoring goals in recent 5 games. Inter Milan have been winless for recent three away games. But they have never been defeated by Udinese in the past. Inter Milan will absolutely win.
Udinese VS Inter Milan
Prediction: 0-2

SC Freiburg
Freiburg lost 1-2 to Bayern Munchen in the last game. The momentum of 5 consecutive victories was ended, but the recent performance of the team is actually very good. Only 4 goals were conceded in 6 games, and the stability of the defensive end has improved a lot. And they are only 3 points away from the top 6 and they have a high fighting spirit.
Eintracht Frankfurt
Frankfurt defeated Schalke 04 at home 3-1 in the last round. The league has won 4 consecutive victories and the state has fully recovered. At present, after the 16th round, Frankfurt has risen to 7th, only 3 points away from Europa Cup qualification, and the team's fighting spirit is also high.
Verdict:
The rankings and recent developments of the two sides are almost the same, and Frankfurt has achieved 3 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses in away games this season. The Asian handicap live odd is Freiburg-0, seems no clearly support to both side. Frankfurt should at least take 1 point in this game.
SC Freiburg VS Eintracht Frankfurt
Pick: Eintracht Frankfurt+0

Leicester City
After defeating Southampton in the last round of the league, Leicester City have won 3 consecutive games and have been unbeaten in 6 consecutive games. They have now risen to 3rd in the league and still have great hopes of winning champion. Leicester City's offensive and defensive data are already at the top level this season, coupled with the home court advantage, the team has high confidence.
Chelsea
After entering December, Chelsea's overall performance has fallen sharply and has only won 1 game so far. The team's current ranking has dropped to 7th, and it is already very difficult to compete for the championship this season. And their away performance can only be regarded as mediocre, with only 4 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses.
Verdict:
The state of the two sides is good and the other is bad, not to mention that Leicester have the home advantage. The Asian handicap live odd is Chelsea-0.25, seems no clearly support to both side. Leicester should at least keep 1 point in this game.
Leicester City VS Chelsea
Pick: Leicester City+0.25

Real Valladolid
They are the seventeenth in the table of the League, only two points higher than the relegation zone. So the most important thing for them at present is to avoid relegation. But they are in poor state with a two-match losing streak in recent games.
Elche
As the newly-promoted this season, they are lack of experience and competitiveness. So far, they have got three victories and 14 scoring goals. They are fatigued by the two-fronted attack on Spanish La Liga and Spanish Copa Del Rey.
Verdict:
Real Valladolid get 2W-5D-3L from Elche in the past. The Asian handicap first odd is Real Valladolid -0.5, which shows support to them. The Euro odds is 1.90-3.32-4.42. In short, the result of the game is suggested to be a draw.

Pick: Real Valladolid -0.5

Manchester City - Blue Moon
It is said that Man City fans often sing blue moon to cheer themselves up. The first time when it was sung was at the opening game of the 1989-90 season at Liverpool. Some Man City fans sang a sort of melancholic version when Man City was down, and it caught on in later days. Now Blue Moon has been a surname of Manchester City.

Manchester United - Red Devil
When Salford's dominant rugby league team (Salford is the main district within the City of Salford, Greater Manchester) traveled to France to play games, their unbeaten record impressed the native so the French call them Red Devil. Manchester United dressed in red as Salford. So they take the red devil as their nickname. In 1970s, a devil with a trident in hand was added to the club's logo.

Goias
Goias was a guest in the last round of the league to challenge Internacional RS, and finally lost 0-1, and the league's two consecutive victories were ended. This season, Goias' offensive and defensive performances are very poor. They are currently averaging less than 1 goal per game. After 29 rounds, they have conceded 44 goals, making them become the second most conceded team in the league.
Flamengo
Flamengo unexpectedly lost to Ceara 0-2 at home in the last round, and suffered a losing streak in the 2 rounds in the New Year and has already 3 consecutive rounds not win. As Brazil's wealthy team, Flamengo's defensive performance this season is surprising. So far, they have lost 39 goals in 28 rounds, which is a lot worse than last season.
Verdict:
Although Flamengo had a poor record, their away performance was very good, with 7 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses ranked second in the league. The Asian handicap live odd is Flamengo-1.25, obvious support the away team, Flamengo should go back winning this game.
Goias VS Flamengo
Pick: Flamengo-1.25
