West Bromwich(WBA) vs Blackburn Rovers
West Bromwich(WBA)
West Bromwich lost 2-0 to Sheffield United last time out. The team have won only one of the nine games in all competitions. Bruce have to find a solution to his teams lack of goals in the first half, the West Midlands scored their last goal in the first 45 minutes on December 4.Blackburn Rovers
Blackburn Rovers lost 0-2 to Nottingham Forest last time out. Despite getting eight points in seven games in 2022, Rovers lost the last two games and failed to score in the last three games. The team are still in third place in the table - while West Brom are only eight points behind them with one game in hand.
Prediction
Considering all factors, if both clubs want to keep pace in their respective battles, they cant afford another unsuccessful game. Since West Bromwich have home advantage, I hope they win the game.
1X2 Pick: 1
Final Result: 2-1 -
Tottenham Hotspur vs Wolves
Tottenham Hotspur
Four points behind West Ham United with three games in hand, Tottenham Hotspur remain seventh in the table. Tottenham have made a bit of a habit of winning one then losing one in recent weeks. They relinquished the lead twice against Southampton in midweek to end up on the wrong side of a 3-2 scoreline. Before that they beat Brighton Hove Albion 3-1 in FA Cup.Wolves
Wolves are in good form, and are placed eighth in the table. They had also won four of their last five fixtures, and they are also on a three-game winning streak on the road. Wolverhampton Wanderers failed to beat 10-men Arsenal in midweek as they also squandererd the chance to close the gap with the top four. Before that, they recorded a 1-2 win on the road against Brentford.
Prediction
Tottenham Hotspurs defensive frailties have been exposed in recent weeks. Wolverhampton Wanderers have been formidable at the back and lackluster going forward. It’s trusted that a close match is on the cards and the spoils will be shared at the end.
1X2 Pick: 1X
Final Results: 1-1 -
RB Leipzig vs FC Koln
RB Leipzig
RB Leipzig are sat seventh in the table, one point and one place behind the visitors. They have managed just a win against teams from the top half of the table at home. In their most recent match despite equalising twice away from home against Bayern Munich, they had to return empty handed as the match concluded with a score line of 3-2. RB Leipzig have scored 12 times over their prior 6 outings.FC Koln
Recording 8 wins, 8 draws and 5 losses, FC Koln have collected 32 points now, two points behind 4th place Union Berlin. In their most recent fixture, they registered a narrow 1-0 win at home against 5th place Freiburg. This marked the club’s 3rd win in five league matches. FC Koln have slotted home 8 times throughout their previous six matches.
Prediction
FC Koln have not picked as many points on the road. They have resisted defeats in recent away games. RB Leipzig appear to have rediscovered and they also have an enviable home record. So, expect the host will be the winner.
1X2 Pick: 1 -
Heracles Almelo vs FC Utrecht
Heracles Almelo
Heracles, who lost 3-0 to Ajax in the last round of the league, have been in a slump in form after four successive defeats. The teams problems in attack have been huge, with three goals in two of their last five games. They are good at home, with a run of 5 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss in the last 9 games at homeFC Utrecht
Utrecht have picked up their form and morale after a 3-2 home win over Cambuur in the last round of the league. Utrecht, who have scored six goals in their last two games, will be lacking confidence as they have only scored 11 points from 10 away games.
Verdict:
Utrecht is better than Heracles in strength and form. The 1X2 first odds is 2.88-3.40-2.30, which means lacked of confidence to the home team. Utrecht should take points in this game.
Heracles Almelo VS FC Utrecht
Pick: Utrecht+0.25 -
Wolves vs Arsenal
Wolves
Bruno Lages side were knocked out of the FA Cup by Norwich City 0-1 at the weekend. This defeat ended their four consecutive victories in all games. They have won the last three league games - a winning streak that established them in eighth place. Rock solid defense is the main catalyst for Wolves success for having conceded only 16 goals so far this season.Arsenal
The Gunners have not played since their league draw with Burnley last time out - which has left them five winless games without goals during the international day. Arsenal currently rank sixth in the table and close to Manchester United - only two points higher than Wolves.
Prediction
If Arsenal perform as badly as against Burnley before the international match day, the fans may not get their money here. Coupled with Wolves tenacious defense and their home advantage, I support that they can be unbeaten in this game.
1X2 Pick: 1X
Final Result: 1-1, 2-1 -
Zulte-Waregem vs Oostende
Zulte-Waregem
Wilshire lost 2-0 to Henk in the last round of the league, winning four consecutive games and picking up just two points during that period. The team has had major problems defensively, allowing 22 goals in just one of its last 10 clean sheets.Oostende
Oostendes overall performance is good, with four points in the last three rounds and two wins and a draw on the road to remain unbeaten, with a four-point lead over the relegation zone. But they have been slow to get started and have been unable to score in the first half.
Verdict:
Oostende has been in better shape lately. The 1X2 first odds is 2.30-3.50-2.88, seems lacked of confidence to the home team. Oostende should take points in this game.
Zulte-Waregem VS Oostende
Pick: Oostende+0.25 -
Manchester City vs Brentford Preview
Manchester City
They are sitting in the first place in the table of the League with nine points lead. They have been unbeaten for ten matches. The last defeat they have got was in December, which was from RB Leipzig in UEFA Champions League.
Brentford
They are the newly-promoted this season. They are in poor state now, suffering a five-match losing streak. They rank the fourteenth in League table now. It takes time for them to adjust themselves.Manchester City vs Brentford
1X2 Pick: 1 -
CD Tondela vs Benfica
CD Tondela
Tondelas 2-1 away win over Portimonense in the last round, their first win in five games, was a morale boost. They are three points clear of the relegation zone and are still playing hard.Benfica
Benfica has been in poor form with only one draw and two defeats in his last three games. They are now nine points behind second-placed Lisbon and are in a very difficult position to qualify for the Champions League.
Verdict:
Despite benficas poor form, they have won eight, drawn one and lost one of their last 10 games against Tondela. The 1X2 first odds is 8.00-4.50-1.40, which means support the away team. Benfica should win this game.
CD Tondela VS Benfica
Pick: 2 -
Fulham vs Millwall
Fulham
After a disappointing 1-1 draw with Blackpool in the last round of the championship, they will seek to return to victory on Tuesday. Fulham lost 4-1 to the Premier League leaders in the FA Cup at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. Silvas men are still five points ahead of Blackburn Rovers. The team have scored 37 goals in 15 games at home so far.Millwall
After losing four consecutive games in all competitions, Millwall kept a clean sheet in the last two rounds against West Bromwich (2-0 win at home) and Preston North End (0-0 at home). On the downside, the East Londoners have lost four of their last five away games.
Prediction
Millwall will be happy to see Silva listed as the team of choice at the weekend. Nevertheless, I still believe that this will not affect the final result. Fulham will get all three points with professional performance.
Pick: Millwall +1.5 in AH -
Burnley vs Manchester United
Burnley
They rank in the bottom of League table. They have got only one victory this season so far, which was from the newly-promote, Brentford. It seems to be impossible for them to avoid relegation.
Manchester United
Instead, they are in high morale as they get a 1-0 clean sheet from West Ham United in last game. Now they are the fourth in the table of the League. But the gap between them and the seventh is so narrow that they must try their best to stay the lead.Verdict:
Man Utd take the upper hand over Burnley in everything even if Burnley have home advantage. What’s more, Man Utd got a winning streak from Burnley in the past. There is no doubt that Manchester United will win in the coming game.
Burnley vs Manchester United
1X2 Pick: 2 -
Hertha Berlin vs VfL Bochum
Hertha Berlin
Hertha Berlin lost 4-1 at home to Bayern Munich in the last round and have taken only one point from their last four games, with poor form and morale. They are just three points above the relegation zone and will have to go all out.VfL Bochum
Bochum are currently 12th in the league, which is a good performance for a promoted side, with four points from their last three games and a good morale. But they have been poor away from home, picking up just six points from 10 away games.
Verdict:
Hertha have won 6, drawn 2 and lost 2 in their last 6 games against Bochum, but they have not been as good as each other lately. The 1X2 first odds is 2.10-3.50-3.30, seems lacked of confdence to the home team. Bochum should take points in this game.
Hertha Berlin VS VfL Bochum
Pick: Bochum+0.25 -
Getafe vs Levante
Getafe
Getafe beat Osasuna and Real Madrid back-to-back by 1-0, and then lost in Seville on January 9, but then they beat Granada and drew with Real Sociedad. There must be signs of encouragement in recent weeks. At present, they rank 16th with 22 points in the table - four points higher than 18th-placed Cadiz.Levante
Levante won their first league victory of the season at home against Mallorca on January 8, but they lost 2-0 to Cadiz in the last game. The Valencia based team have only achieved 1W-8D-12L with 11 points, putting them at the bottom of the table with nine points to safety in 17th place.
Prediction
It is a huge game for both sides and Levants defeat would be a real blow to their chances of staying in the division. However, Getafes recent performance has been impressive and we expect the host to get all three points.
1X2 Pick: 1
Final Result: 2-1 -
Manchester United vs Middlesbrough
Manchester United
The Red Devils advanced to this round by beating Aston Villa 1-0. Manchester United have won three of the last four games of all games. They beat West Ham United 1-0 before halftime and are currently rank fourth in the Premier League table. They are the second most successful team in the history of the FA Cup for winning the championship 12 times, the last time in 2016.Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough have won eight of the past 10 games and lost only one in the process, including a 3-2 win over League Two team Mansfield Town in the third round of the FA Cup on January 8. Chris Wilders side beat Coventry 1-0 on January 29 to enter sixth place in the championship table.
Prediction
Middlesbrough will travel to Old Trafford with confidence and the team are fully capable of making it a tricky thing for Manchester United. However, the Red Devils showed many positive signs in the last game against West Ham and I support them to advance to the fifth round.
1X2 Pick: 1
Total: 1-0, 2-1 -
Cardiff City vs Nottingham Forest
Jan 30 2022, 12:00
Cardiff City
They lose to Bristol City at 2-3 in last game, which have been winless for seven matches. It is because they are weak in defensive, with 1.75 conceding goals in average of this season. Now they are the twentieth in the table of the League.
Nottingham Forest
Instead, they are in form, getting a four-match winning streak. In last game, they get a 3-0 clean sheet from Barnsley, which makes them in high morale. In addition, they are good at away games, with 77% unbeaten rate.Verdict:
Cardiff City are in poor state while Nottingham Forest are in good condition. Although Cardiff City have home advantage and take the upper hand in past head to head clashes, they stand little chance to win.
Cardiff City vs Nottingham Forest
1X2 Pick: 2 -
Fulham vs Blackpool
Fulham
Fulham beat Stoke City 3-2 last time out, which mark their fifth consecutive win across all venues. The Cottagers are currently top of the league with 57 points from 27 games. They have achieved 17W-6D-4L so far, with 73 goals while conceding just 25, which happens to be the best in the league. The team are one step closer to an immediate return to the Premier League.Blackpool
After being pulled out of the FA Cup following a 2-1 loss to Hartlepool United earlier this month, they went on to beat Hull City and Millwall 1-0 in a row in their last two league games. The team currently 12th in the table with 36 points - eight points off the playoffs. There is still hope for the Seasiders to the top six.
Prediction
A week off at this stage of the season is ideal for Fulham and we hope to see the benefits at the weekend. Although Blackpool also enjoyed the rest, the home team should have enough strength to win in West London.
Pick: Fulham -1.5 in AH

Colombia vs Peru
Colombia
Sitting fourth in the table with 17 points, Colombia have failed to impress in their race for World Cup qualification. They have only won three of their 14 fixtures in the section. Colombia played out a goalless draw against Brazil last time out, marking a fourth game with a 0-0 result in the last five games for the Colombians.Peru
Peru are firmly in the picture for a top-four finish at this stage, boasting 17 points from 14 matches, which has left them in fifth position in the table heading into Fridays contest. They have won their last two World Cup qualification fixtures, beating Bolivia 3-0 before recording a 2-1 victory over Venezuela in their two matches back in November.
Prediction
Colombia have more quality in their ranks but they are winless and goalless in their last five games. Peru are on a run of back-to-back wins after suffering consecutive losses and goalless outings. Therefore, the draw looks as a much better option to take.
Colombia to be unbeaten
Final Results: 1-1, 2-1 -
Australia vs Vietnam
Australia
They have been winless for three matches, which makes them down to the third in Group B. There is just one point separating them from the second. They still have the chance to upgrade to next stage directly.
Vietnam
It is the first time for them to get into group stage. As there is a lack of quality and experience in the team, they play poorly, which have not got any victory in group stage yet. They are unlikely to upgrade. But it will be a great fortune as long as they get one point from any.Verdict:
Australia take the upper hand over Vietnam in every aspect. Vietnam come for gaining experience. In addition, Australia will try their best to rank top two so that they are able to upgrade directly. So Australia will probably win in upcoming game.

USA vs El Salvador
USA
The USA made a 1-1 draw with Jamaica in their previous qualifier. The Yanks are undefeated in their last 18 home games and currently rank second position in the Octagon phase. They have conceded the opening goal three times in eight qualifiers this season, but have shown enough resiliency to make it through the second half for scoring four goals in a 4-1 win over Honduras and beat Costa Rica 2-1 in October.El Salvador
El Salvador sit second-to-last with six points after losing 2-1 away to Panama in their previous qualifier - eight points behind Mexico after eight games. The team have had a tough battle away from home in the Octagon but have little to show for losing all three of their away games so far against Canada, Panama and Costa Rica.
Prediction
Although they are good in their last game against the USA, El Salvador are a different team when they play away. The Yanks have enough ability to collect three points due to individual quality.
1X2 Pick: 1

Chile vs Argentina
Jan 27 2022, 20:15
Chile
After the disappointing result of winning only one of the first 10 qualifiers, Chile rebounded in the next three games for beating Paraguay at home and away and Venezuela at home. However, they suffered another setback with losing 2-0 at home to Ecuador last time out and missed the chance to advance to the top four. This result means that Chile fell to sixth place in the table - only one point behind fourth-placed Colombia.Argentina
Although Argentina drew with Brazil at home in the recent qualifier, this result is enough to give them a place in the 2022 Qatar world cup. La Albiceleste are currently six points behind Brazil but lead Peru 12 points in the table, which means they will finish in the top four. Lionel Scaloni will be impressed by defensive resilience of his men at the end of 2021, as they have kept clean sheets in each of the past six games and won four games in the process.
Prediction
Chile will face all three-point pressure and a fierce game will be played in Calama. Chile failed to win any of their last five international games against Argentina. Despite Messis absence, the visiting team still have enough strength to expand their unbeaten record.
1X2 Pick: X2
Final Result: 0-1, 1-1 -
Ecuador vs Brazil
Jan 27 2022, 17:00
Ecuador
Ecuador are now well-positioned to advance to the 2022 Qatar World Cup, with La Tri having got 10 points from their last 12 home games and looking to take another three to cement their place in the top four. Gustavo Alfaros side remain in the third position after a 2-0 away win over 10-man Chile last time out and are six points ahead of fifth-placed Peru.Brazil
The Selecao faced Argentina in their most recent qualifier - a goalless draw in San Juan. This result gave the five-time world champions 35 points from their 13 matches and a six-point advantage over second-placed Argentina, making them the first South American nation to book a spot in Qatar. The team have lost just one of their seven World Cup qualifiers at home, scoring 17 goals in the process, more than any other South American nation.
Prediction
Unsurprisingly, Brazil will be the favourites to take all three points on Thursday, although Ecuadors impressive performance in this qualifier cannot be underestimated. The Selecao’s attacking strength should be enough to help them beat the hosts.
1X2 Pick: 2
Final Result: 1-2, 0-1 -

Senegal vs Cape Verde
Jan 25 2022, 11:59
Senegal
Senegal, currently ranked 20th in the world, has not performed well in his last three matches, with 1 win and 2 draws. Most of the players at the Africa Cup of Nations play in the top five leagues, led by Liverpool star Mane.Cape Verde
With one win, one draw and one loss in their previous three matches, Cape Verde were lucky to qualify as third place. Their players are all from European clubs, but not from the top five. The team has conceded goals in the last 2 games and is not defending very well.
Verdict:
The difference in power between the two sides was big, and Cape Verde lacked of stars. The 1X2 first odds is 1.57-3.60-6.50, which means support the home team. Senegal should win this game.

Paris Saint Germain (PSG) vs Real Madrid
Paris Saint Germain (PSG)
Picking up 11 points from six matches, Paris Saint Germain (PSG) finish second in Group A behind Manchester City. PSG secured a 1-0 victory over Rennes in Ligue 1 on Friday, which has left them 16 points clear at the top of the table. It’s believed that PSG will put a lot of focus on their Champions League challenge as they have only reached the final in the 2019/20 season where they lost to Bayern Munich.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid claimed first position in Group D to progress to the round of 16. They reached the semi-finals of last seasons competition, losing 3-1 on aggregate to winners Chelsea. They have won just one of their last four games in all competitions, which was an unconvincing 1-0 success at home to Granada. Currently sitting top of La Liga, Real Madrid drew 0-0 in with Villarreal in their latest game.
Prediction
Real Madrid certainly have the ability to put one past this Paris Saint-Germain lineup. With the handicap, expect Real Madrid can edge out the Frenchman.
Real Madrid to Win with AH +0.5
