Los Angeles Galaxy
On Sunday, at the PayPal Park stadium, Los Angeles Galaxy will face San Jose Earthquakes. San Jose Earthquakes Currently sitting at 14th place in the Western Conference, which is quite poor for the team. In their last 15th round match, they drew with Austin FC (1-1). After that, they suffered a heavy defeat to New York City FC (1-5). They subsequently lost to Cincinnati (2-4) and fell short against Portland Timbers (1-2). In their most recent game, they were thrashed by Los Angeles FC (2-6) Los Angeles Galaxy Currently sitting in 3rd place in the Western Conference, which is quite impressive for the team. In their last 15th round match, they won against Dallas (3-1). However, they then suffered an unexpected defeat to Chicago Fire (1-2). In their next game, they defeated Sporting Kansas City (4-2) and followed that with a victory over New York City FC (2-0). In their most recent match, they managed an away win against Real Salt Lake (1-0). Head-to-Head The last match between Los Angeles Galaxy and San Jose took place on 22 April 2024, with Galaxy emerging victorious with a score of 4-3. Prediction for the match San Jose Earthquakes vs Los Angeles FC Judging by the recent results, the favourite in this match is Galaxy. Los Angeles is currently playing brilliantly, having secured 3 consecutive wins in their latest matches. On the other hand, San Jose has lost their last 4 matches, thus I would bet on an away win. Prediction for the Total In the upcoming game, I would recommend betting on a total over 2.5. Both teams have shown high scoring capabilities in their recent matches, so I anticipate a similar outcome in this fixture.

Both teams have numerous high-calibre players in their squads, who are expected to score more than once against their opponents. Prediction for the BATE vs Dinamo Minsk Match Dinamo will win. The Blue-Whites have had a much stronger start to the current season. Their results show logic and consistency, whereas BATE continues to surprise their fans in various ways.

This loss significantly impacted Oskarshamn's position in the Swedish Division 1 standings. Currently, the team is placed 15th out of 16 teams, which puts them in a perilous position. After 14 games, their record includes 3 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses, accumulating 13 points with a negative goal difference (15 scored against 25 conceded). It is worth noting that the current series of five consecutive defeats has severely undermined the team's morale and that of their fans. Rosengrd, after 14 games, occupies 7th place in the standings with 21 points, having achieved 6 wins and 5 losses. Match Prediction Olympic vs AIK Oskarshamns AIK seems to be preparing for relegation, judging by their recent results. I anticipate a victory for Olympic, who have recently climbed out of the relegation zone, garnering 7 points in the last 3 rounds.

This Saturday a match between Jeonbuk Motors and Seoul will take place at the stadium as part of the Korean K League 1. Jeonbuk On 29 June, Jeonbuk Motors played a tense match against Pohang Steelers in the regular season. The match ended in a 1-1 draw. Jeonbuk Motors is still going through a tough season. Currently, the team is at the bottom, occupying the 12th position in the K League 1 standings. Over 19 matches this season, the team has managed to secure only 3 wins, lost 9 times, and ended 7 games in a draw. With the current form of 5 winless matches, it is clear that the team needs to improve their gameplay to climb higher in the rankings and avoid relegation. In contrast, Pohang Steelers are having a stable and successful season, sitting in 3rd place with 9 wins out of 19 matches. Seoul In the last match against Gangwon, Seoul secured a 2-0 victory. Following this win, Seoul strengthened their position in the standings, occupying 6th place with 24 points after 19 games. With 6 wins, 7 losses, and 6 draws, the team is on a streak of 2 consecutive victories and is 6 points behind 5th-placed Suwon. The defeat did not heavily impact Gangwons standing. They remain in 4th place in the standings with 31 points after the same 19 games. However, this loss certainly adds tension at the top of the table and forces Gangwon to improve their position in upcoming matches. Jeonbuk Motors vs Seoul Match Prediction I am betting on Seoul's victory, as they are currently in the top 6 of the Korean championship, whereas Jeonbuk faces significant issues with their results and rightfully sits at the bottom of the league.

This Saturday Vegalta Sendai and Tochigi will face off in the Japanese J2 League. Vegalta Sendai Vegalta Sendai continues its campaign in the 2024 J2 League season, showing stable results and holding a high position in the league table. Currently, the team sits in 5th place with 35 points after 21 rounds. Vegalta's last match was on June 22nd against Yamagata, which concluded in a 1-1 draw.

The team's form over the last 5 matches includes 1 win and 3 draws. Tochigi Tochigi showed fighting spirit and an ability to battle until the end in their last match against JEF United, held on June 22nd. The game resulted in a 2-1 victory for Tochigi. Despite the win, Tochigi's position in the J2 League remains challenging. Currently, the team is 19th in the league table out of 22 teams, which is quite far from the top spots. Out of 21 matches, Tochigi has recorded only 5 wins, 11 losses, and 5 draws. The team exhibits modest figures in terms of goals scored and conceded (18:38), having 20 points in their tally. JEF United is in 7th place in the league standings, with 33 points. The team has secured 10 wins and 8 losses after 21 matches played. Prediction for Vegalta Sendai vs Tochigi I am betting on a total over 2 goals and expect at least one goal from Tochigi, which has started to gain points with two consecutive victories. Vegalta has an extensive goal-scoring streak in the second Japanese league.

Following this game, Yokohama FC continuously secures the second spot in the J2 League table, with 43 points from 21 matches. Notably, their form in recent games is impressive5 consecutive wins with just 2 goals conceded. Roasso Kumamoto, positioned at 18th with 21 points, is experiencing tough times.

The team has shown weak form this season, sitting 20th in the league table after 20 matches played. Sapporo has garnered only 11 points through 2 victories and 5 draws, suffering 13 defeats. With 16 goals scored and 40 conceded, the squad finds itself in a tough position, further evidenced by a string of five consecutive losses.

On Sunday, 30 June, in the 13th round of the Brazilian Serie A, Atltico Mineiro will host Atltico Goianiense at their home ground. The home team recently triumphed over Internacional and climbed into the top ten, while the red and whites have long been entrenched in the relegation zone. Stadium The match will take place in Belo Horizonte at MRV Arena. Atltico Mineiro Due to a very poor start to the season, Atltico Mineiro, who finished third last year, are currently only tenth in the overall standings with 17 points. A home draw with Fortaleza last week allowed Gabriel Milito's side to break a two-game losing streak, followed by a 2-1 victory over Internacional. After a goalless first half, Cadu and Alan Patrick traded goals, with Romulo delivering the decisive strike in the 97th minute. Noteworthy is that the black and whites conceded eight goals in their two matches against Palmeiras (4-0) and Vitoria (4-2). In Copa Libertadores, the results were much better: five wins in six group stage rounds, although Atltico were knocked out of the Copa do Brasil in the round of 16 by modest Sport Recife. It is essential to note that the hosts have performed poorly at home, securing just six points in five home games this Serie A season; moreover, Mineiro have failed to keep a clean sheet in six consecutive matches. Atltico Goianiense Atltico need to escape the relegation zone as soon as possible. A home loss to Criciuma (2-1) in mid-June was the final straw for the management, who sacked head coach Jair Ventura. Despite a two-match unbeaten streak (four points), the club opted for a change. Currently, Anderson Gomes is the interim manager. Under his guidance, the red and whites drew with Cuiab (0-0) and Grmio (1-1), but have only one victory in their last six rounds a 2-1 win over struggling Fluminense. Vasco da Gama, who sit one spot above, have the same number of points (10), meaning the battle for top-flight survival is still on. It's also worth noting that the visitors have performed decently on the road, earning eight points in six away matches (the seventh-best in Serie A). Head-to-Head The last encounter between these teams was in September 2022, with Atltico Mineiro securing a 2-0 away victory. Moreover, the black and whites have won six of the last seven duels. Prediction for the Match Atltico Mineiro vs Atltico Goianiense Atltico Mineiro haven't impressed at the start of the season, but the team has significant potential to improve their results their current two-game unbeaten streak is proof of that. Additionally, the black and whites have historically fared well against Goianiense, who remain in the relegation zone and are still without a head coach. I don't expect miracles from the underdogs here and back Milito's men for a home triumph. Total Goals Prediction Mineiro have been both prolific in scoring (17) and conceding (15) this campaign. Clearly, the hosts will prefer an open game and attack a lot, so I back the total goals over 2. Corner Kicks Prediction Expect the hosts to take the initiative from the start and camp in the opponent's half. I'll risk an individual total over 5.5 corners for Mineiro. Yellow Cards Prediction Both teams commit a lot of fouls and average more than three bookings per game. I back the total yellow cards over 5.5. Score Prediction I'll stake on a 2-1 scoreline in favour of Atltico Mineiro.

On Sunday, 30 June, at 3rd round of Copa America, Argentina will face Peru. While the "Albiceleste" have already secured their spot in the playoffs with two victories, the "Blanquirroja" need maximum points to even have a shot at finishing in the top two. Predicted Lineups Argentina: Armani; Montiel, Otamendi, Pezzella, Acua; Mac Allister, Rodriguez, Palacios; Di Maria, Lautaro Martinez, Garnacho. The Argentine squad is missing two players due to injuries: defender Foyth (Villarreal) and Paulo Dybala (Roma, 3 goals). Additionally, Balerdi (Marseille) and Medina (Lens) were not called up. It's clear that even without them, the "Albiceleste" have a powerful lineup, led by Lionel Messi (Inter Miami, 108 goals), who will get a rest in the final group stage match after sustaining a thigh injury in the game against Chile but still managed to assist Lautaro Martinez (Inter Milan) in the dying moments. Emiliano Martinez (Aston Villa) has kept two clean sheets in the opening matches and might also get a break, whereas De Paul (Atletico), Di Maria (Benfica), Enzo Fernandez (Chelsea), Julian Alvarez and Acua (Sevilla), Montiel, Tagliafico (Lyon), and Molina (Atletico) are expected to get some game time. Additionally, talented players such as Lo Celso (Tottenham), Garnacho (Manchester United), Palacios (Bayer Leverkusen), Paredes (Roma), and Martinez Quarta (Fiorentina) are available. Peru: Gallese; Santamaria, Zambrano, Callens; Polo, Pea, Cartagena, Quispe, Lopez; Lapadula, Flores. Three experienced players did not make the Peruvian squad for this tournament: midfielder Tapia (Celta), Trauco and Yotun (injured). While the first two weren't chosen by the coaching staff, the latter is in the medical room. It's also important to note that central defender Miguel Araujo (Portland Timbers) was sent off against Canada and won't play in the final group match or even in the quarter-finals (if they make it). On the plus side, players such as Callens (AEK Athens), Pea (Malmo), Marcos Lopez (Feyenoord), and forwards Lapadula (Cagliari, 9 goals) and Flores (16 goals) are available. Three-time Copa America Golden Boot winner and Peru's top scorer in the tournaments history, Paolo Guerrero (39 goals), needs one more goal to level with the late Teodoro Fernandez for the most goals scored by "The Incas" in the history of the tournament (15). Andre Carrillo (11 national team appearances) also expects to get playing minutes in the second half, while Anderson Santamaria will form a defensive trio with Carlos Zambrano and Alexander Callens. Stadium The match will take place in Miami at Hard Rock Stadium. Argentina Expectations were high for the Argentine team, the Copa America holders and current world champions, in the opening matches. The "Albiceleste" fought hard for their two victories against Canada (2:0) and Chile in the second round, with Lautaro Martinez scoring in the dying moments (0:1). As a result, with six points, Lionel Scaloni's men have already qualified for the quarter-finals and can afford to rotate the squad to rest key players. Ranked first in the FIFA rankings, Argentina has only lost two out of 59 matches in all competitions since the summer of 2019 an unexpected 2:1 loss to Saudi Arabia at the 2022 World Cup and a 2:0 defeat to Uruguay in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers last November. Notably, since that setback, Argentina has won their subsequent seven matches with a combined score of 15:2. Peru The World Cup qualifying campaign isnt going well for Peru: the team has suffered four defeats and two draws, placing them at the bottom of the table after Bolivia. The "Incas" did not participate in the World Cup in Qatar (exiting in the qualification playoffs to Australia) and have yet to win in this Copa America, drawing 0:0 with Chile in the first round and losing 0:1 to Canada a few days ago. Miguel Araujo's sending off in the 59th minute for tripping disrupted the white-and-red's entire game plan, with a precise strike in the 74th minute by Jonathan David deciding the tense match in Kansas. Now Jorge Fossati's men are at the bottom of Group A, level on points with Chile (1 each), and need a win on Sunday night to progress to the playoffs. Ranked 31st in the FIFA rankings, Peru has failed to score in eight of their last 12 matches in all competitions. Moreover, the "Incas" risk exiting the Copa America at the group stage for the first time since 1995. Head-to-Head Peru has not beaten Argentina since 1997 a 16-match unbeaten run for the "Albiceleste" with 12 victories and 4 draws. Argentina also won their last three head-to-head encounters (0:2, 1:0, and 0:2). Match Prediction Argentina vs Peru Although Argentina has already secured their spot in the playoffs and can afford some squad rotation, the "Albiceleste" bench inspires optimism for their fans. Even without Messi, the reigning world champions should have no trouble overcoming the crisis-stricken Peruvians, who have won just once in their last four matches in all competitions. Expect a convincing win for Scaloni's men with a handicap of -1. Total Goals Prediction The "Albiceleste" reserves will need to prove themselves if given the opportunity, so the world champions won't be holding anything back. Bet confidently on the favourite's individual total over 1.5 goals. Corner Prediction The Argentine team significantly outmatches their opponent in experience and player selection, and will undoubtedly dominate the game. Bet on the "Albiceleste" winning on corners with a handicap of -2.5. Yellow Cards Prediction Both teams have earned a total of just two yellow cards in their opening two matches, so confidently bet on the total number of cautions being under 3.5. Score Prediction I will place my bet on a 3:1 victory for Argentina.

At the Allegiant Stadium in the USA, the second round of Group D in the Copa America will see Paraguay face off against the formidable Brazil on the morning of 29 June. Probable Line-ups Paraguay: Roberto Mario Acosta, Gustavo Velazquez, Fabian Balbuena, Omar Alderete, Matias Espinoza, Ernesto Caballero, Andres Cubas, Matias Villasanti, Miguel Almiron, Adrian Arce, Julio Enciso.Brazil: Alisson, Danilo, Eder Militao, Marquinhos, Guilherme Arana, Bruno Guimaraes, Joao Gomes, Lucas Paqueta, Raphinha, Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior. Paraguay Before the start of the 2024 Copa America, Paraguay displayed mixed results in friendly matches, ending their preparation with a draw against Peru, a loss to Chile (0-3), and a narrow win over Panama (1-0). In the first round of the group stage of the Copa America, hosted in the USA, Paraguay suffered a 2-1 defeat to Colombia. In the first half, the Colombians netted two goals, and Paraguay could only respond with a single goal from Julio Enciso in the second half. Paraguay's squad has not showcased the expected levels of scoring and consistency in the group stage. Despite creating several dangerous moments in the match against Colombia, Paraguay lacked the strength to completely turn the match around after the break, leaving the team with minimal chances of advancing from the group. According to statistics, Paraguay made 11 shots on target and had an advanced xG of 1.35, which does not reflect Colombia's dominance. In the Copa America, the team faced issues with ball control and passing accuracy, indicating their poor preparation for high pressure from opponents. In the match against Colombia, Paraguay's pass accuracy was just 64%, highlighting significant problems in ball handling. Additionally, Colombia's high pressing created further difficulties, which will likely be mirrored by a more skilled Brazil in the upcoming matches. The best player for Paraguay in this match was the young leader from Brighton, Julio Enciso, who not only scored the goal but also actively participated in the team's attacking actions, showing high class in dribbling and battles. This allows Paraguay to rely on his leadership in the forthcoming matches, although the overall gameplay needs substantial improvement to compete with stronger opponents in the tournament. Brazil Brazil's national team played a dull draw against Costa Rica in their first Copa America match, despite holding possession and dominating attacking actions. Junior's squad faced unexpected difficulties with finishing their chances at the start of the Copa America. In the first match against Costa Rica, Brazil shot 20 times but failed to score, while the opponent maintained a goalless draw thanks to their goalkeeper's excellent performance. This outcome disappointed both fans and analysts, as Brazil is traditionally regarded as favourites with a plethora of stars, but neither Vinicius, Rodrygo, nor the substitutes Endrick and Martinelli could break through Costa Rica's tight defence. Despite numerous attacks and 74% possession, Brazil could not efficiently use their chances, underlining finishing issues they have faced not only in this game but in previous matches as well. Of particular note were the central defenders Marquinhos and Militao, who provided solid defence, with Marquinhos excelling in individual duels. In the match against Costa Rica, Brazil created 1.71 expected goals (xG) a statistic indicating their dominance in attack but insufficient efficiency in the final third. This match underscored the problems within Brazil's superstar squad, where each player seemed to pull in different directions. Even with control of the game, Brazil could not overcome the opponent's defence, potentially complicating their progress in the tournament. Head-to-head Meetings Brazil and Paraguay have a rich history of encounters in the Copa America and World Cup qualifiers. Their last Copa America meeting took place in the quarter-finals of the 2019 tournament, where the match ended in a 0-0 draw. Brazil, featuring stars like Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho, Gabriel Jesus, Dani Alves, and Thiago Silva, only managed to secure victory in a penalty shootout. In the last two World Cup qualifiers, Brazil came out on top both times. On 2 February 2022, Brazil thrashed Paraguay 4-0, and on 9 June 2021, they won 2-0. Interestingly, in the 2015 Copa America quarter-final, another draw (1-1) led to penalties, with Paraguay emerging victorious. A similar scenario occurred in the 2011 Copa America, with a 0-0 draw and Paraguay again victorious in the shootout, despite Brazil having stars like Neymar, Robinho, Pato, and Ganso. In the last 10 matches since 2008, Brazil has won five times in regular time, while Paraguay managed just one win, back in 2008 with a 1-0 scoreline. Match Prediction: Paraguay vs. Brazil Brazil once again showed that football is played by people, not the value of players. However, in the match against Costa Rica, Brazil was quite unlucky; they should have scored at least two goals, with much decided in individual duels. Paraguay, stronger in team play, may not allow the five-time world champions to score more than two goals.

Right wingback Widmer (Mainz) will be suspended on Saturday due to an accumulation of yellow cards. However, the red-and-white squad has no other injury issues. Midfielders Zakaria (Monaco) and winger Zuber (AEK Athens) have recovered from injuries and were even included in the squad for the previous match against Germany. Experienced players Mbabu (Augsburg), Sow (Sevilla), and Seferović (Al-Wasl, 25 goals in 93 matches), along with Garcia (Marseille), Omeragić (Montpellier), Cmert (Nantes), and Lotomba (Nice), were not called up for the tournament by the coaching staff. On the brighter side, we will likely see all the Swiss stars in action, especially central defender Akanji (Manchester City) and defensive midfielder Granit Xhaka (Bayer Leverkusen), who shone during the group stage. Goalkeeper Yann Sommer (Inter Milan) and defender Schr (Newcastle) helped the team concede only three goals in their opening three matches. Meanwhile, the dynamic Ndoye (Bologna) seamlessly integrated into Yakin's attacking plans, scoring the only goal for the red-and-whites in the third round. Strikers Doi (Ludogorets, 1 goal in 2 matches) and Embolo (Monaco, 14 goals in 64 matches) found the net against Hungary, and the experienced Shaqiri scored a beautiful top-corner goal against Scotland, though the former Bayern player is expected to start on the bench. Notably, Xherdan Shaqiri became the first player in history to score in six consecutive major international tournaments! Leonidas Stergiou will replace the suspended Silvan Widmer, and Ruben Vargas and Zeki Amdouni will vie for the chance to bolster the side off the bench in the second half. Italy: Donnarumma; Darmian, Mancini, Bastoni; Di Lorenzo, Barella, Jorginho, Pellegrini, Dimarco; Chiesa, Scamacca. In the "Nazionale" camp, a pivotal suspension should be notedyoung wingback Calafiori. The Bologna defender inadvertently scored an own goal against Spain but still impressed in the opening matches, with a brilliant run that assisted Zaccagni's goal in the finale against Croatia. This summer, coach Luciano Spalletti was forced to leave out several veteran players: Calabria, Acerbi, Scalvini, Udogie, Zaniolo, and Berardi. Midfielder Locatelli and forward Immobile were also left out despite their heroics in the previous continental championship. Between the posts, we expect to see Donnarumma (PSG), who was arguably Italy's best player in the group stage, making several outstanding saves against Spain and Croatia, including a penalty stop against Modric. Defenders Di Lorenzo (Napoli), Bastoni (Inter), and Dimarco (Inter), along with midfielders Pellegrini (Roma) and Barella (Inter), will handle the defensive fortitude. Upfront, Scamacca (Atalanta) and Chiesa (Juventus) are set to start, though both began on the bench against Croatia while Spalletti opted for Retegui (Genoa) and Raspadori (Napoli). Lazio winger Zaccagni managed to save the "Azzurri" with a spectacular goal, ensuring a second-place finish in Group B and a spot in the knockout stages. Experienced defender Dimarco has had some calf strain issues this week, making his starting presence uncertain. Stadium The match will take place in Berlin at Olympiastadion. Switzerland Having eliminated France in the Round of 16 back in 2021, Switzerland has once again reached the knockout stage of the continental championship. The "Nati" impressed with their quality of play in the group stage and came close to clinching the top spot in Group A. Murat Yakins men began the tournament with a convincing 3-1 victory over Hungary, then earned a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Scotland thanks to a Xherdan Shaqiri goal. In the third match, they put up a commendable fight against Euro hosts Germany, taking the lead just past the half-hour mark before succumbing to Niclas Fllkrugs last-minute equaliser (1-1). As a result, the Swiss finished second in the group standings but are brimming with confidence as they head into the playoffs. An interesting fact: the "Nati" have advanced from the group stage in each of the last six major tournaments, a streak that started in 2014. The only European nation with a better record is France, with seven consecutive qualifications for the Round of 16. However, Switzerland has not won any of their previous seven knockout matches in regular time at the Euros or World Cup. Preceding the start of this football fiesta in Germany, the Swiss enjoyed success in friendlies, defeating Estonia 4-0 and drawing 1-1 with Austria. Italy The defending European champions nearly conjured a miracle by making it to the knockouts. Despite a disappointing performance against Croatia last Monday, Spallettis side managed to equalise in stoppage time (98th minute) through Zaccagni (1-1), clinching second place in Group B, the so-called "Group of Death." Had they finished with only three points and a negative goal difference, Italy would have faced elimination. Earlier, the "Azzurri" laboured to a 2-1 win over Albania despite conceding an early goal, followed by a narrow 0-1 loss to Spain in the second match. Against "La Roja," the scoreline didnt quite reflect the games flow, which could have been far more one-sided if not for Donnarummas brilliant goalkeeping. The nominal visitors still fancy their chances of retaining their title, but overall performances have been uninspiring. Ahead of Euro 2024, the "Nazionale" drew 0-0 with Turkey and secured a 1-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina, finishing second in their group behind England but ahead of Ukraine. Despite World Cup qualification woes, the "Azzurri" have reached the quarterfinals of every Euro since 2004. Notably, we might see a rematch of the last continental final in the next round, pitting Spalletti against Southgate. Head-to-Head These teams have met 61 times in their history. Switzerland has only won eight matches, while Italy has triumphed in 29, with 24 draws. The sides clashed in the group stage of Euro 2021, where the "Squadra Azzurra" earned a 3-0 victory, followed by two draws in World Cup qualifiers for Qatar. Predictions for Switzerland vs. Italy These teams have thoroughly studied each other in recent years, so dont expect an open game with a plethora of chances. Italy scraped through to the knockouts with a bit of luck and hasnt impressed so fargoals are hard to come by, and even the defence isnt rock-solid (except for Donnarumma). Conversely, Switzerland, under Murat Yakin, showcased lively performances in the group stage and came close to defeating the tournament hosts, Germany. I dont see the reigning European champions as favourites here and back a double chance for the red-and-white team. Prediction on Total Goals Only one of the last six head-to-head encounters saw more than two goals scored. Neither side will rush to control the game, prioritising defensive solidity. I anticipate a lack of many dangerous chances and bet on the total goals being under 3. Prediction on Corners Italy boasts quick flank players in Chiesa and Zaccagni, while Switzerland averaged five corners per game in the group stage. In such a close match, set-pieces can be decisive. Therefore, I bet on the total corners being over 8.5. Prediction on Yellow Cards The Swiss accumulated eight yellow cards in their opening three matches, and its unlikely Murat Yakin's side will scale back their intensity in this crucial fixture. I wager on their individual total yellow cards being over 2.5. Prediction on the Score I predict a final score of 1-1 in regular time.
