The elite division match of the 2024 Icelandic Football Championship will kick off. Fans of European football can look forward to the clash between Fram and Vestri. Fram Fram's players have participated in 11 official matches of the elite division of the 2024 Icelandic Championship. With 13 points garnered from these matches, Fram occupies the 7th spot on the league table.The beginning of the 2024 season has been average for Fram, positioning them among teams not contending for top places. Currently, Fram sits in the lower half of the table, trailing Stjarnan by 3 points in the 6th position. In their 11 matches this season, Fram has secured 3 victories and has shared points on 4 occasions. Lately, they have struggled, unable to win in the Icelandic Championship for six matches in a row. Vestri Vestri has also played 11 official matches in the elite division of the 2024 Icelandic Championship. They have managed to collect 10 points from these outings, placing them 10th on the league table. The start of the 2024 season has not been favourable for Vestri. In their 11 matches, Vestri has recorded only 3 wins and 1 draw, with losses being a common result. Vestri often loses in streaks of two games, which recent Iceland Championship matches have confirmed. Vestri was defeated by both Fylkir and Valur. Head-to-Head In their last 5 encounters, Fram holds the advantage with 4 wins. Only in 2020 did Fram and Vestri play to a draw. Total Goals Prediction The total match goals are expected to exceed 2. Both teams, being of roughly equal strength, have good chances of winning. Each side is likely to score, probably more than once. Match Prediction Vestri - Fram Draw. Both teams are not in their best form, considering their recent matches where they collected minimal points. There will be plenty of battles and goals from both sides, but the match will likely end without a winner.

Reykjavk The players of Reykjavk have participated in 11 official matches in the elite division of the Iceland Championship 2024. With 11 matches played and 12 points earned, Reykjavk occupies the 9th position in the standings. The initial part of the season has not been the most successful for Reykjavk, considering their position and results.In their 11 Championship matches, the capital team has achieved only 3 victories and drawn 3 times. Reykjavk's recent performance in the national championship hasnt been impressive, with a winless run of 4 matches. Their last victory dates back to 20 May.

The start of the championship has been tough for Fylkir.Fylkir has conceded 30 goals in 11 matches and managed only 2 wins, defeating Kopavogur and Vestri. They earned 1 point in a draw with Valur. In their last 5 matches in the Iceland Championship, Fylkir has suffered 3 defeats, each time losing by a margin of 2-3 goals. Head-to-Head In the last 5 head-to-head matches, Reykjavk has the upper hand with 3 victories. Fylkir's win came in 2023, when they triumphed 2-0. Forecast on Total Fylkirs individual total (ITU) will be less than 2 goals. The championship's underdog will likely struggle to score, considering Reykjavk's non-attacking tactics. Match Prediction: Reykjavk vs Fylkir Reykjavk will win. The capital's team appears stronger than their upcoming opponents, who have only 2 wins in 11 matches. Reykjavk scores more and concedes less, reflecting the difference in strength and class.

Vikingur Reykjavik
Today the elite division of the Iceland Championship for the 2024 season will kick off. Football enthusiasts can expect a clash between Stjarnan and Vikingur. Stjarnan The players of Stjarnan have participated in 12 official matches of the Iceland Championship for the 2024 season. Stjarnan's record includes 12 matches with 16 points, securing 6th place in the league standings. The initial phase for Stjarnan has not been ideal, and their position in the top 6 remains fragile. Stjarnan is just 3 points ahead of their closest competitors, Fram, who are in 7th place. Over 12 matches in the 2024 Iceland Championship, Stjarnan achieved 5 victories. In their most recent match in the Iceland Championship, Stjarnan suffered a defeat to Kopavogur. Vikingur The Vikingur club has played 12 official matches in the elite division of the Iceland Championship for the 2024 season. Over these 12 matches, Vikingur has accumulated 27 points, allowing them to hold the 1st position in the league standings. Vikingur's successful start in the 2024 season is reflected in their current league standing. Vikingur is currently at the top of the Iceland Championship table, leading Breidablik by 1 point. During this season, Vikingur has suffered only 1 defeat, against Kopavogur. They have won 8 times. Vikingur earned 1 point each in their recent matches against Valur and Reykjavik. Head-to-Head In the last 5 matches, Vikingur has the upper hand, securing 4 victories. In October 2023, Stjarnan won with a score of 3:1. Total Goals Prediction The total for Vikingur is expected to be over 2 goals. The league leader has not won in the last 2 matches but does not suffer from low scoring. Facing an average team, Vikingur has good chances to score more than 2 goals. Match Prediction: Stjarnan vs Vikingur Vikingur will win. The club's performance at the beginning of the season is far better than Stjarnan's, who have had a mix of successes and less favourable results. Due to their stability and quality, the capital's club is expected to triumph.

Today in the second round of Copa America, Panama will face the USA. In their opening match, the tournament hosts had no trouble against Bolivia (2-0), while "Los Canaleros" succumbed to Uruguay 3-1. Another failure could eliminate them from the play-offs. Predicted Line-ups Panama: Mosquera; Murillo, Farina, Cordoba, Miller, Davis; Rodriguez, Welch, Carrasquilla, Barcenas; Fajardo. USA: Turner; Scally, Ream, Richards, A. Robinson; Reyna, Musah, McKennie; Weah, Balogun, Pulisic. Stadium The match will take place in Atlanta at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Panama Having participated in just one World Cup (2018, group stage exit) and one Copa America (2016, group stage exit), Panama is not a powerhouse even in the CONCACAF region. In their first round, the tricolours were defeated by Uruguay (3-1), with Araujo putting Bielsas side ahead in the first half, followed by goals from Nez and Via and a response from Murillo. A failure on Friday night combined with a Uruguay victory over Bolivia will officially eliminate Panama from the play-offs. Earlier this month, the tricolours performed in the qualifiers for the next World Cup and secured two victories over Guyana (2-0) and Montserrat (3-1). However, in the final friendly match before the start of the continental tournament, the nominal hosts failed to overcome Paraguay (0-1). Additionally, in recent matches against countries with slightly more football prowess, such as Jamaica (a 0-1 defeat), Mexico (a 0-3 defeat), Paraguay, and finally Uruguay (one goal in four matches), Christiansens team also failed to score. USA Reaching the Round of 16 in the last World Cup, the USA is beginning to make its mark on the international stage, thanks to high-profile players like Musah, Weah, Balogun, and Pulisic. Milan winger Pulisic started this Copa America brilliantly, even scoring a goal in the first round and playing a direct role in the victory over Bolivia (2-0). It is essential to note that the hosts were not invited to the last two Copa America tournaments in Brazil, but they finished fourth in 2016. Now the team's objective is at least to reach the semi-finals again, and ideally, to lift the prestigious trophy. The USA head coach Gregg Berhalter secured his 44th victory last week, surpassing Bob Bradley to become the third most successful coach in the team's history, behind only Jrgen Klinsmann (55) and Bruce Arena (81). Since the current tournament format was introduced in 1987, the host country has always advanced from the group stage at Copa America, and an American triumph combined with a victory or draw for Uruguay will ensure this streak continues. However, the Stars and Stripes suffered two setbacks in friendly matches this June: first against Colombia (1-5) and then against Brazil (1-1). Head-to-Head Last summer, Panama knocked the USA out of the CONCACAF Gold Cup in the semi-finals after a penalty shootout (1-1 after extra time). Panamanians often defeat Americans: in 2021, during the World Cup qualifiers for Qatar, they also won at home (1-0). Panama vs USA Betting Tips Having won their first match, the USA will attempt to secure their place in the play-offs as soon as possible so that they can play with less pressure in the final group stage match after Uruguay. Panama has a far less renowned squad and, with all due respect, is considerably inferior in class to their opponent. Home crowd support will boost the Stars and Stripes' confidence, so I back Berhalter's men to claim victory.

Today at 17:00 GMT Norrby is set to face off against Utsiktens BK in a match within the Swedish Division 1. Norrby Norrby, in their last match against Torslanda on June 19th, ended in a 1-1 draw. The team currently holds the 9th position in the table after 14 matches played. They have recorded 5 victories, 5 defeats, and 4 draws, maintaining a balanced stance in the tournament with a goal difference of 21:16. In their last 5 matches, the team has shown resilience with 2 wins and 2 draws, indicating their adaptability to different game situations and showcasing strength in consistent performances. Their recent opponent, Torslanda, occupying the 14th spot, has faced challenging moments this season with 3 wins and 7 losses, accumulating 13 points so far. This does not yet allow Torslanda to aim for high positions. Utsiktens BK Utsiktens BK, in their most recent match against Olympic, lost with a minimal score of 0-1. Currently, Utsiktens BK holds the 13th position in the standings of the Swedish Division 1 season 2024. The team has played 14 matches, securing 4 victories, suffering 7 defeats, and drawing 3 times. Utsiktens BK has scored 17 goals and conceded 24, which has earned them 15 points. The team's form is unstable: they have suffered 2 consecutive losses, 1 draw, and managed 2 wins. Match Prediction: Norrby vs Utsiktens BK Playing at home, Norrby has scored 9 goals in their last 2 matches. I anticipate a confident victory with a handicap (-1) against Utsiktens BK, who are positioned near the bottom of the Swedish Division 1 table.

The Venezuelan and Mexican national teams will clash in the second round of Group B in Copa America. Probable Lineups Venezuela: Rafael Romo, Alexander Gonzalez, Nahuel Ferraresi, Yordan Osorio, Miguel Navarro, Cristian Casseres, Yangel Herrera, Jose Martinez, Yeferson Soteldo, Salomon Rondon, Darwin Machis.Mexico: Julio Gonzalez, Jorge Sanchez, Cesar Montes, Johan Vasquez, Gerardo Arteaga, Edson Alvarez, Luis Chavez, Uriel Antuna, Orbelin Pineda, Julian Quinones, Raul Jimenez. Venezuela Venezuela had an impressive start in the Copa America, securing a 2-1 victory over Ecuador despite being the underdog. This success was partially due to a numerical advantage after Enner Valencia was sent off in the first half. However, their attacking efficiency confirms that the team can perform under pressure. Despite conceding in the first half, goals from Cadiz and Bello led Venezuela to a 2-1 win. According to xG (expected goals) statistics, the team had a 1.36 xG, which was logical considering the opponent's red card. The main attacking threat comes from the well-known veteran Salomon Rondon, who has displayed outstanding form, helping Venezuela to a strong position in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, including a draw against Brazil. Venezuela now aims to maintain this form against their next Copa opponent - Mexico. This would solidify their chances of progressing from the group stage. The intense pressing they displayed against Ecuador, along with good possession and chance creation stats, are crucial factors for their potential success. However, Venezuela continues to face defensive challenges, as seen in the Ecuador game, where the opponent created several dangerous moments despite being a man down. Mexico The Mexican national team is preparing for the second round of the Copa America after overcoming Jamaica 1-0, thanks to Arteaga's goal in the 69th minute. This victory was important, especially after two previous friendly match losses: 0-4 against Uruguay and 2-3 against Brazil. Despite their numerical advantage and a high xG index of 1.15, the Mexicans struggled with converting their chances. In the upcoming match against Venezuela, a win would ensure Mexico's place in the playoffs. Heading into the second round, Mexico is the favourite. Although the team started with a victory, critics point out deficiencies in stability and effectiveness. According to xG, the Mexicans created enough chances for a more confident win, but their performance was far from perfect, especially in attack, where they could have converted more opportunities. The Mexican team previously suffered two defeats in friendlies against Uruguay and Brazil, but victory over Jamaica, thanks to Arteaga's goal, broke a losing streak and possibly provided the team with the necessary confidence ahead of this crucial match. Mexico showed solid preparation and delivered an exciting performance in the first match with 20 shots and 11 on target against the rather unskilled Jamaica. Head-to-head Matches In the history of head-to-head matches between the Mexican and Venezuelan national teams, dating back to 1995, three Copa America matches have taken place. Mexico dominated, winning two of these encounters 3-1 in 1995 and 1999. The last group stage match in Copa America 2016 ended in a 1-1 draw. Overall, across 11 matches, Mexico has won 7 times, Venezuela 1 time, and the rest ended in draws. Prediction for the Venezuela vs. Mexico Match I would risk betting on Venezuela not to lose. They seem more organised against a Mexico side with a noticeable tilt towards attack. In their first match, the Aztecs missed numerous chances and struggled to break down Jamaicas defence until the 70th minute. Defensively, Venezuela is head and shoulders above. Total Goals Prediction A bet on total goals under 2.5 looks pretty straightforward. The match against Ecuador was influenced by the red card and their goal, but in the game against Mexico, Rondons team is likely to play more defensively.

On Thursday, 27th June, in the 12th round of the Brazilian Serie A, "Bahia" will host "Vasco da Gama". Both teams secured victories last weekend, but they are positioned at different ends of the league table: the hosts are in third place, while the visitors are just one point clear of the relegation zone. Stadium The match will be held in Salvador at the Fonte Nova stadium. Bahia A key package of Bahia shareholders recently came under the management of the well-known City Group, and, surprisingly, this is reflected not only in the teams performances but also in their position in the league table. Sitting in third place overall, the hosts are three points behind the leading Flamengo. Last weekend, looking to bounce back from a painful 2-1 defeat to the red-blacks, Bahia obliterated "Cruzeiro", who were down to ten men from the 70th minute, securing a commanding 4-1 victory. Gabriel Veron and Tassiano exchanged goals in the first half, but after Marlon's sending off, Estupin (with a brace) and Biel found the net. Notably, the Salvadorians have not suffered a home defeat in the league since 30th November last year, when they were edged out 0-1 by "So Paulo". Fans of the red-blues will also be pleased to know that their favourites haven't left the pitch without scoring in their last five matches across all competitions, conceding just six goals in that span. Vasco da Gama Last season, the visitors narrowly escaped relegation, and it seems they will once again be battling to stay in the top flight. The white-blacks currently occupy the 15th spot in the league table, just one point ahead of "Vitria", who are below them. Having gone winless in four games, including three defeats - to Flamengo (1-6), Palmeiras (0-2) and Juventude (0-2) - Vasco da Gama brought smiles back to their fans' faces last weekend by defeating So Paulo 4-1 at home. lvaro Pacheco's team conceded early but turned the game around with goals from Alan Franco, Guilherme Estrela, Leandrinho and David. Having not won any of their last seven away matches since late February, the white-blacks are eager to end this streak. Interestingly, in terms of points earned on the road, Vasco is second to last overall: zero points in five away matches, with two goals scored and nine conceded. Head-to-Head The teams last met in September of the previous year, ending in a 1-1 draw; Bahia had won their two prior encounters. Match Prediction: Bahia vs Vasco da Gama Vasco was buoyed by a resounding victory over a strong "So Paulo" last weekend, but it's worth noting that the white-blacks' success came only after an opponent's dismissal. Bahia has started this campaign confidently and hasn't lost at home since November 2023. The hosts are not about to let Flamengo break away, so I'll bet on a victory for the home side. Total Goals Prediction Vasco da Gama is the leader in Serie A for most goals conceded in the league (22 in 11 rounds), so confidently bet on the home sides individual total over 1.5 goals. Corners Prediction Bahia is in terrific form and will likely play on the front foot with the support of their home crowd. I bet on a victory for the red-blues in corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Vasco will have to spend a lot of time defending, so the visitors will be forced to foul frequently. I bet on a victory for the white-blacks in yellow cards. Score Prediction I'll bet on a final score of 2-1 in favour of Bahia.

On Thursday, June 27, in the 12th round of the Brazilian Serie A, Juventude will host Flamengo on their home turf. Having yet to taste defeat at home in this seasons national campaign, the hosts prepare with optimism to take on the league leaders. Stadium The match will take place in Caxias do Sul at the Alfredo Jaconi Stadium. Juventude Juventude effortlessly dispatched struggling Vasco da Gama (2:0), Atletico Goianiense (1:0), and Corinthians (2:0). However, when facing tougher opposition, failures occurred - a trend seen against Botafogo (5:1), Bragantino (2:1), and Palmeiras (3:1) last weekend. After a relatively calm first half, Eric Farias responded to Jose Lopez's goal in the 64th minute, but precise strikes from Estevao and Maicon secured three points for the favourites. Roger Machado's team hasnt secured any wins in five away matches in the Brazilian Serie A this season, losing three and drawing two, conceding 12 goals while scoring just five. With 13 points from ten rounds, Juventude sits in 12th place, just four points clear of the relegation zone. Furthermore, the white-greens havent lost in their last eight home games across all competitions, securing four victories and four draws since their 1:2 defeat to Internacional in March. Flamengo Flamengo has been in incredible form in recent weeks, leaving their rivals with no chance: five wins and one draw in their last six matches. Following a hard-fought 2:1 victory over Bahia, the visitors secured three points in a derby against sinking Fluminense last weekend (0:1), with Pedro converting a penalty in the 86th minute. Notably, Flamengo has gone nine matches unbeaten across all competitions, winning eight and drawing once since their 1:0 loss to Palestino in the Copa Libertadores on May 8. Thanks to these results, Tites side has advanced to the knockout stages of the continental championship, finishing second in Group E, and secured a spot in the last 16 of the domestic cup. In the league, Flamengo has accumulated 24 points and leads the overall standings, one point ahead of Palmeiras. The impressive start of the Rubro-Negro is driven by their vibrant attacking play, as the team has scored 19 goals so far - the highest in the division (with just nine conceded)! Head-to-Head The teams last met in November, resulting in a 2:2 draw; two previous encounters ended in favour of the red-blacks. Match Prediction: Juventude vs Flamengo Juventude consistently secures points against lower-table teams but struggles against top-6 representatives. Flamengo looks unstoppable at the beginning of the season, annihilating their rivals in all competitions: unbeaten since early May, winning 8 out of their last 9 matches. Bet on an away triumph for Tites team. Total Goals Prediction Flamengo leads the Brazilian Serie A in goal-scoring this season, so expect a goal feast from the red-blacks. Bet on individual total over 1.5 goals. Corners Prediction Flamengo is in tremendous form and plays a dominant game against any opponent. Bet on a victory for the red-blacks in corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Juventude will have to foul frequently to disrupt the superior opponents attacking tempo, so bet on a triumph for the white-greens in yellow cards. Score Prediction Bet on a precise score of 1:2 in favour of Flamengo.

On Thursday, 27 June, as part of the 12th round of the Brazilian Serie A, Corinthians will host Cuiab. The hosts have had an unexpectedly poor start to the season and have settled into the relegation zone, while the yellow-greens are just three points above them. Stadium The match is set to take place in So Paulo at the Neo Qumica Arena. Corinthians This season, Corinthians is simply unrecognisable, and their current streak of seven matches in the championship without a victory is a testament to that. The hosts have lost three of them: first to Flamengo (2:0), then to Botafogo (1:0), and most recently to Internacional (1:0). Last weekend, the black-and-whites avoided catastrophe in the last minute by drawing 1:1 with Athletico Paranaense: after Cristian's goal in the first half, Kaka responded in the dying minutes. As a result, Antonio Oliveiras charges have dropped to 18th place in the Brazilian Serie A standings, just one point above the relegation zone. Having lost just one of their last 10 matches at home, the hosts rank only 15th overall in this metric (due to frequent draws, they've earned just six points in five home games). Its worth noting that Corinthians have scored only eight goals in 11 matches and havent kept a single clean sheet in their last five games. Cuiab Cuiab sits outside the relegation zone in 14th place. Over the last six rounds of Serie A, the yellow-greens have lost just once, winning three times against Cricima (2-5), Fortaleza (5:0), and So Paulo (0:1). Last weekend, the visitors had to settle for a point against Atltico Goianiense, which ended in a goalless draw. Petis side spent much of the game defending, with only a stellar performance by their goalkeeper preventing a loss. Interestingly, Cuiab has won three of their last four away matches across all competitions, putting them in a respectable ninth place overall in this metric (six points in five games, seven goals scored, nine conceded). Regarding their attack, the visitors arent doing too badly: theyve scored 12 goals in the last five rounds (the second-best in the division). On the absentee list are Lacerda (4 matches) and Deiverson (1 appearance), both injured. Head-to-Head The teams met each other in October last year, with Corinthians claiming an away victory with a score of 0:1. Match Prediction: Corinthians vs Cuiab Corinthians needs to start picking up points urgently to avoid getting stuck in the relegation zone. While betting on a victory for the red-blacks tonight might be tempting, one must remember that Cuiab performs quite well away. The yellow-greens have been a pleasant surprise at the start of the season and remain unbeaten in their last three rounds. I'll take a risk and bet on a double outcome in favour of the underdog. Prediction on Total Goals As mentioned earlier, Cuiab has scored 12 goals in their last five rounds - the second-best in the division (after Palmeiras). Given Corinthians struggles in recent weeks, betting on the visitors to score seems a safe bet. Prediction on Corners With the support of their home crowd, Corinthians will play on the front foot and seize control of the ball from the start. I bet on a victory for the hosts in all key metrics, including corners. Prediction on Yellow Cards Corinthians averages 2.6 yellow cards per game this campaign, while the visitors average 3. Im betting that the yellow-greens will come out on top in terms of cautions. Exact Score Prediction I predict a final score of 1:1.

The showdown between Georgia and Portugal will conclude the group stage of Euro 2024 at the Veltins-Arena in Gelsenkirchen. Probable Line-ups Georgia: Giorgi Mamardashvili, Solomon Kverkvelia, Guram Kashia, Lasha Dvali, Giorgi Tsitaishvili, Zurab Davitashvili, Anri Mekvaabishvili, Giorgi Kochorashvili, Otar Kakabadze, Georges Mikautadze, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. Portugal: Rui Patricio, Nelson Semedo, Goncalo Inacio, Danilo, Diogo Dalot, Ruben Neves, Joao Neves, Matheus Nunes, Francisco Conceicao, Joao Felix, Andre Silva. Group F Standings The Portuguese team comfortably leads Group F, having accumulated the maximum 6 points from their first two matches. The team has already secured their place in the round of 16 and clinched the top spot in the group, irrespective of the outcome of the final game. It is expected that Portugal might give their main players a rest and field their second string against Georgia. Georgia occupies the 4th position with 1 point. For Willy Sagnols team, the chances of advancing depend entirely on a victory in the final match. A draw or a loss would eliminate their hopes of progressing. In the parallel match, the situation for the Czech Republic is similarthey too need a win to retain their aspirations of advancing from the group. Georgia Making their debut in the final stages of the Euros, the Georgian national team has displayed commendable play despite modest expectations. In their first match against Turkey, despite a 1-3 defeat, the Georgians performed impressively in attack, marked by a goal from Georges Mikautadze, the first for Georgia in European Championships. In the second round, the Georgian team drew 1-1 with the Czech Republic, earning their historic first point at the Euros. Giorgi Mamardashvili was the hero of that match, making 11 saves and keeping his teams hopes alive. This feat matches the Euro 2012 record set by Irelands Shay Given against Spain. Mamardashvili is already noted for his reliable performance guarding the net for Valencia and stands out especially when donning the national jersey. Few might recall his tenure with Tbilisis Lokomotiv during a Europa League qualifier against Moscows Dynamo, where he also showcased his high level of play. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has underperformed in both matches, with many expecting more from the Napoli star. He relies excessively on individual efforts and dribbling, taking too much upon himself. Given the current group standings, Georgia needs a victory against the formidable Portuguese side to advance to the playoffs. Portugal The Portuguese national team reaffirms their status as one of the favourites at Euro 2024, accumulating the maximum 6 points from their first two matches and securing the top spot in Group F. Roberto Martinezs team demonstrated impressive play, claiming victory over the Czech Republic with a 2-1 scoreline and confidently thrashing Turkey 3-0. In the final group stage match against Georgia, the Portuguese might rotate their squad, giving key players a rest before the knockout rounds. Throughout the tournament, Portugal has showcased not only strong attacking play but also defensive reliability, conceding just one goal from the Czechs sole shot on target. Bruno Fernandes has been pivotal in orchestrating the attack, and despite his age, Cristiano Ronaldo remains a vital figure on the field. There are questions about whether Martinez can bench the legend if issues arise in attack, as there is a sense that Ronaldo sometimes disrupts play, with too much reliance placed on him. Ronaldo set a new record for assists in European Championships, though he was obliged to pass in that moment to an open goal. Head-to-Head In the history of the national teams of Portugal and Georgia, there has been only one head-to-head encounter, which took place on 31 May 2008 during a friendly match. Portugal emerged victorious with a 2-0 scoreline. Cristiano Ronaldo and Pepe were among those on the field, but the goals were scored by Joao Moutinho and Simao. Match Prediction: Georgia vs Portugal I expect Martinez to take a leaf out of Spains De la Fuente's book and field a completely second-string line-up, including Danilo, the veteran Rui Patricio, and Andre Silva. The Georgians might put up a fight and could snag a draw at the very least or avoid a heavy defeat. The handicap (+1.5) looks appealing. Total Prediction I anticipate a minimum of 3 goals, as the Georgians allow their opponents multiple attacking opportunities and also take plenty of shots themselves. For Georgia, this is the match of a lifetime, and they will definitely take risks.

Today a crucial match of the 3rd round in Group F of the Euro will take place at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg between Czech Republic and Turkey. Probable line-ups Czech Republic: Jindrich Stanek, Tomas Holes, Robin Granach, Ladislav Krejci, Vladimir Coufal, Lukas Provod, Tomas Soucek, David Jurasek, Vaclav Cerny, Patrik Schick, Adam Hlozek.Turkey: Altay Bayindir, Zeki Celik, Merih Demiral, Mert Muldur, Ferdi Kadioglu, Hakan Calhanoglu, Kaan Ayhan, Yunus Akgun, Orkun Kokcu, Muhammed Akturkoglu, Baris Alper Yilmaz. In the Czech squad, Patrik Schick's participation is in doubt due to an injury sustained in the second match, leaving him visibly upset on the bench. For Turkey, centre-back Samet Akaydin will likely be left out after a poor performance in the last match. Another central defender, Abdlkerim Bardakci, will definitely miss the game due to accumulated yellow cards. Ahmetcan Kaplan or Mert Muldur may take his place. Group F Situations for Turkey and Czech Republic In Group F, the situation is highly tense ahead of the final round. Portugal has already secured advancement with maximum points. Meanwhile, Turkey has 3 points, and the Czech Republic only has 1 point. Their matchup will determine who continues to the playoffs. For Czech Republic, who have displayed inconsistent play in previous matches, a draw will not be sufficient for advancing, considering their current goal difference and points. Turkey, on the other hand, can move to the playoffs with a draw, securing second place regardless of other match outcomes. A loss might leave Turkey out of the playoffs, especially if Georgia performs well and defeats the favourite. Czech Republic The Czech Republic enters the final group stage match of Euro 2024 with just one point, needing a victory over Turkey to maintain playoff hopes. The match against Portugal was tough, with the Czechs conceding in the dying moments to lose 2-1, while their encounter with Georgia ended 1-1 despite dominating the attack and setting a tournament record with 26 shots. Georgian goalkeeper Mamardashvili was outstanding, but the Czechs also needed better finishing. The Czechs play modern football with high pressing and active wing play, though defensive issues have cost them results in both matches. The team looks cohesive on the field, with many tactical decisions by Ivan Hasek focusing on strengthening the attack, evident in the high activity of wing-backs and frequent set-piece utilisation. In the forthcoming game against Turkey, Haseks team faces an opponent also in need of a win, making this decisive for both sides. The Czechs especially rely on key midfielders, particularly Tomas Soucek of West Ham, whose game in midfield could significantly influence the match's outcome. If Schick is unavailable to play, it would be a huge blow for the Czechs. Turkey Under Vincenzo Montella, Turkey shows dynamic and attacking football at Euro 2024. They secured an emphatic 3-1 win against Georgia in the opening group stage match, thanks to stellar goals from youngster Arda Guler and defender Mert Muldur. However, the subsequent fixture against Portugal saw them suffer a 0-3 defeat, highlighting Turkeys defensive frailties, as Georgia could have scored at least 2-3 goals. Turkey's youthful squad and attacking style make them a vibrant team at the Euro, but consistency and minimising defensive errors remain critical for their success. Montella's system focused on counter-attacks and pressing has proven effective but also vulnerable against top-class opponents, as demonstrated in the Portugal match. Ahead of the decisive group match with the Czech Republic, Turkey only needs a draw to secure a playoff spot. However, the coach will likely aim for a win, as Turkey is not adept at defensive play and playing for a draw is very risky. Head-to-Head Since 2008, Turkey and Czech Republic have faced each other 7 times, with Turkey winning 6 matches and the Czechs winning just once. The most memorable encounter was during the group stage of Euro 2008 in Austria and Switzerland, where Turkey triumphed 3-2. In Euro 2016 in France, Turkey again emerged victorious with a 2-0 win over the Czech Republic. The teams also met in Euro qualifiers. In 2015, Turkey won 2-0, while the previous year, the Czechs secured their only win with a 2-1 scoreline. Their latest meeting was a friendly match on 19 November 2022, where Turkey won 2-1, with goals from Enes Unal and Hakan Calhanoglu countering Cerny's opener. Match Prediction: Czech Republic vs Turkey The Czechs are a much more organised defensive side, capable of 'parking the bus' as they did against Portugal. Turkey plays more with their hearts, and I favour the Czech Republic to draw or win this match. Prediction for Total Turkey is an extremely dynamic team, and the Czechs showed in the last round that they can attack effectively if not sitting back. I expect at least 3 goals in the match, and a bet on total over 25.5 shots on goal looks promising, considering neither side excels in accuracy in this tournament.

On Thursday, 27 June, in the 12th round of the Brazilian Serie A, Atltico Goianiense will host Grmio. The Tricolour have suffered six consecutive defeats in the league and are firmly in the relegation zone, while the hosts are only three points above and equally at risk of dropping down. Stadium The match will take place in Goiania at the Antnio Accioly Stadium. Atltico Goianiense Atltico Goianiense find themselves in a tough spot: over the last five rounds, the hosts have only managed one victory a 1-2 win over struggling Fluminense. This victory ended a two-match winless streak, including a fiasco against Juventude (1-0) and a 2-2 draw with Corinthians. Last weekend, the red-black-whites couldn't find the net against Cuiab, ending in a goalless draw (0-0), which followed a defeat to Cricima (1-2). In the Serie A standings, Atltico are hovering near the relegation zone with only 9 points. This season, Anderson Gomes side has been underperforming at home, failing to win in their last five home games, gathering just one point out of a possible 15.However, the team has scored 11 goals in their last seven matches across all competitions, which is an encouraging sign for the fans. Grmio The two-time Brazilian champions Grmio, an iconic name in Brazilian football, have been in crisis for some years now. The visitors sit in 19th place with six points, the same as bottom-dwellers Fluminense. In recent weeks, the Porto Alegre outfit has struggled immensely, suffering six consecutive defeats. Their latest setback was against Internacional (0-1) last weekend, just two days after a 1-0 defeat to Fortaleza 21-year-old defender Gustavo Martins scored in the 64th minute after a scoreless first half. Renato Portaluppi's side has only scored six goals this season the worst tally in the division. However, theyve also conceded just 11 goals, fewer than any other team in the lower half of the table. Its hardly surprising that Grmio has earned zero points in their four away matches. Head-to-Head The last time these teams met was in October 2021, when Atltico secured a 2-0 victory. Prediction for Atltico Goianiense vs Grmio Both teams have been in crisis lately, making this match crucial in the battle for survival. Grmio haven't earned an away point this campaign and are weakened by squad absences, while Atltico Goianiense have lost just once in their last four rounds. Home support should boost the hosts, so I'm backing a victory for the red-and-whites with a 0 handicap. Total Goals Prediction Both teams score less than a goal per game this campaign and are unlikely to thrill the fans with a goal fest. Im going for a total under 2.5 goals. Corners Prediction Atltico will be at home and will have to take the initiative and attack more. Im backing the hosts to win on corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Both teams understand the importance of a positive result in this head-to-head encounter and will leave it all on the pitch. I'm backing a total of over 5.5 yellow cards. Score Prediction I'm predicting a 1-0 victory for Atltico Goianiense.

The match in the international tournament among national teams from Southern Africa kicks off at 16:00. Football enthusiasts are in for a thrilling showdown between South Africa and Mozambique. South Africa South Africa's team is one of the strongest representatives of the continent when considering participation in international competitions. Currently, the South African national team holds the 59th spot in the FIFA rankings, a commendable position for African teams. Having appeared in the World Cup three times, they are also regulars in the Africa Cup of Nations. In the 2023 tournament, the South African team claimed the bronze medal. Over the last five official matches, South Africa remains unbeaten. They have accumulated four points in two World Cup qualifying matches. They managed to clinch a victory against Zimbabwe, while they held their ground for a draw against the more formidable Nigerian team. Mozambique The Mozambique national team has never competed in major international tournaments when considering the World Cups. In the Africa Cup of Nations, Mozambique is less frequent, making five appearances among Africa's top teams. Mozambique's journey in the continental competition has always ended at the group stage. The team currently sits at 110th place in the FIFA rankings, a respectable spot for African teams. Their recent World Cup qualifiers were successful, achieving narrow victories against Guinea and Somalia. Head-to-Head In their last five encounters, South Africa has the edge with three victories. In 2022, Mozambique won against South Africa in a penalty shootout, though they didn't score in regular play. South Africa vs Mozambique Match Prediction South Africa will emerge victorious. As the hosts, they are objectively stronger than their less experienced Mozambican opponents. South Africa, the current bronze medallist of the Africa Cup of Nations, faces a Mozambique team that rarely advances past the group stage.

Today at 11:00 the Chinese Super League match between Shanghai Shenhua and Meizhou Hakka will take place at the stadium. Shanghai Shenhua Shanghai Shenhua Football Club is showcasing impressive performance this season in the Chinese Super League. Leonid Slutsky's team is currently in 2nd place on the league table, trailing the leader Shanghai Port by just 5 points. With a present record of 11 wins and 4 draws without a single loss after 15 games, Shanghai Shenhua has accumulated 37 points with a goal difference of 31:6, underscoring their strong play. Shanghai Shenhua demonstrated their fighting spirit and adaptability on the pitch in their last match against Chengdu on 16 June. Despite an early own goal by Jiang Shenglong in the 4th minute, Shanghai Shenhua quickly levelled the score thanks to a goal by Malela in the 16th minute. However, Slutsky's team couldn't push further, resulting in a 1:1 draw. Occupying the second spot on the league table with 3 wins in their last 5 matches, Shanghai Shenhua shows stability and potential for further success this season. Meizhou Hakka Meizhou Hakka lost their recent match against league leader Shanghai Port on 18 June with a score of 1:2. Meizhou Hakka is currently placed 12th in the Chinese Super League standings. The team has played 15 matches, with only 2 wins, 6 losses, and 7 draws, holding a goal difference of 11:18. Their form over the last 5 matches includes 1 win and 2 draws. Shanghai Port is demonstrating absolute dominance in the league, winning 12 out of their 15 matches without a single loss and accumulating 39 points. Match Prediction: Shanghai Shenhua vs Meizhou Hakka Slutsky's team continues their unbeaten streak and battles with Port for the championship. The visitors often play defensively, and in the match against the league leaders, its clear they will close up. Shanghai knows how to play against such opponents. I predict a win for the hosts and to bet on a match total under 3.5 goals.

The match between Seoul and Gangwon will take place today as part of the Korean K League 1. Seoul On the 22nd of June, Seoul secured an essential home victory over Suwon in the regular season of K League 1. The match ended with a score of 3-0 in favour of the hosts, marking a significant achievement for the team at this stage of the season. Currently, Seoul occupies the 7th spot in the K League 1 standings with 21 points after 18 matches. They have 5 wins, 7 losses, and 6 draws. Despite the ongoing challenges, the team shows a willingness to fight and improve their standing. Suwon FC, despite the defeat, stands in 5th place with 27 points, having won 8 out of their 18 matches. Gangwon Gangwon continues to perform confidently in the K League 1 season, showcasing decent results. In their last match on the 22nd of June, they faced Gimcheon Sangmu and lost 2-3. Despite the defeat, Gangwon maintains a high position in the table. In the 2024 season, the team is in 4th place, trailing only three other teams. Out of 18 games, Gangwon has secured 9 victories, suffered 5 losses, and drawn 4 games. The team has scored 34 goals and conceded 30, accumulating 31 points. Notably, despite their recent defeat, the team's form remains quite solid: prior to this, Gangwon had won four consecutive matches. Gimcheon Sangmu is positioned 3rd in the standings. They have also played 18 matches, winning 9 and losing 3, amassing 33 points in total. This result highlights the strength and competitiveness of both sides. Match Prediction: Seoul - Gangwon Seoul, with Jesse Lingard and Russian striker Iljutcenko in attack, remains inconsistent and sits in the lower half of the table with just 1 win in their last 5 matches. However, Gangwons winning streak of 4 matches was halted in their recent encounter with a competitor. My bet is a handicap(0) for Gangwon.

On Thursday, 27 June, as part of the 12th round of the Brazilian Serie A, "Cruzeiro" will host "Atletico Paranaense". The hosts trail the red-and-blacks by just two points, despite having played one game less, thus the outcome of this clash will significantly influence the teams' standings in the top six. Stadium The match will take place in Belo Horizonte at the Mineiro Stadium. Cruzeiro Before their trip to Bahia, Cruzeiro was in excellent shape, going three rounds unbeaten with two crucial victories over "Cuiab" (2-1) and the crisis-ridden "Fluminense" (2-0). However, the "Foxes" unexpectedly stumbled in Belo Horizonte last weekend, showing nothing substantial in a 4-1 defeat. The blue-and-whites scored first through Gabriel Veron in the 14th minute, but went into halftime with the score tied after a goal from Tasciano. In the 70th minute, Fernando Sibras team was reduced to ten men following Marlons dismissal, and Cruzeiro conceded three times between the 78th and 91st minutes: Oscar Estupian scored a brace, and Gabriel Teixeira added another. As a result, the four-time Brazilian champions dropped to eighth place, amassing 17 points in 10 rounds. It is important to note that the hosts are one of two teams in Serie A with a perfect home record: just like "Bahia", they have won all four of their home matches this campaign. Atletico Paranaense Depending on "Botafogo"'s result, who play their match simultaneously, Atletico Paranaense could potentially reclaim a spot in the top four, provided they win themselves. A triumph, however, doesn't seem like a given, as the visitors have drawn their last three league matches against "Flamengo" (1-1) and "Botafogo" (1-1), as well as "Corinthians" (1-1) last weekend. The red-and-blacks took the lead in the first half through Christian's goal, but Kaka equalised just two minutes before halftime. Consequently, Cucas side dropped to fifth place in the Serie A standings with 19 points. Fans might be worried by the fact that Atletico Paranaense have managed only one victory in five away games, the 12th best away record in the division. On a positive note, the visitors have not conceded more than one goal per game in their last six matches across all competitions. Head-to-Head The last meeting between these teams was in Autumn 2023, ending in a 1-1 draw. Cruzeiro have not beaten Atletico Paranaense in their last five encounters. Prediction for Cruzeiro - Atletico Paranaense Cruzeiro are eager to redeem themselves in front of their home fans for last weekends heavy defeat to "Bahia". A win in this round will likely propel the white-and-blues into the top four. The visitors, in contrast, have failed to secure a win in their last three matches and have struggled away from home. I'll take a bet on the home side with a handicap of 0. Total Goals Prediction Both teams have been scoring more than a goal per game this season and are unlikely to sit back. I anticipate a high-scoring encounter and will bet on both teams to score. Corner Kicks Prediction Given that both sides play an attacking style and frequently utilise the flanks, its reasonable to bet on a total of over 10.5 corners, considering they average over five corners per match. Yellow Cards Prediction Cruzeiro average 2.7 yellow cards per game, while the visitors average 2.6. Confidently betting on a total of over 4.5 cautions. Score Prediction I predict a 2-1 victory in favour of Cruzeiro.

On Thursday, 27th June, in the second round of Copa America, the Ecuadorian national team will face Jamaica. The Tricolours stumbled in their opening game, losing 2-1 to Venezuela, while the Reggae Boyz were defeated by Mexico 1-0. Predicted Line-ups Ecuador: Dominguez; Preciado, Torres, Pacho, Hincapie; Gruezo, M. Caicedo; Minda, Paez, Sarmiento; Rodriguez. The Ecuadorian squad for this tournament lacks several key players, including experienced defender and captain Estupinan (Brighton, 38 matches) and Chavez (Lens), who are injured. Also missing are midfielder Plata (Al-Sadd), young Angulo (Anderlecht), and defender Arboleda (Sao Paulo), who have been replaced by Preciado (Sparta Prague), Pacho (Eintracht Frankfurt), and notably Hincapie (Bayer Leverkusen). The midfield is bolstered by Moises Caicedo (Chelsea) and Angel Mena (Leon, 59 matches, 8 goals), although he did not get playtime in the first round. Ener Valencia (Internacional, 41 goals) only played 22 minutes in the opening match and was sent off for a harsh tackle; in his absence, Sarmiento (Brighton) scored. The talented Kevin Rodriguez (Union Saint-Gilloise, 3 goals, 2 assists this season) is likely to lead the offence. Kendry Paez received a yellow card last week and risks missing the final group stage match if cautioned again on Thursday night. Jamaica: Waite; Bernard, Latibeaudiere, Pinnock; Lembikisa, Decordova-Reid, Anderson, Lee; Nicholson, Gray; Antonio. For this tournament, Jamaica's coaching staff decided not to call up Mariappa (formerly of Leicester), Powell (55 caps), midfielder D. Williams, and forwards R. Williams and Richards (Chelsea, 19 years old). Among the absentees, Bell (Luton Town) and Andre Blake (first-choice goalkeeper) are injured, although the latter is expected to recover in time for the next game. The main threat in the attack for the yellow-greens is experienced Michail Antonio (West Ham, 6 goals in the Premier League this season). Creativity upfront is also provided by Gray (Everton), Kasey Palmer (Coventry) and Shamar Nicholson from Clermont-Ferrand (4 goals, 3 assists). In the first round, Jahmali Waite started, and Damion Lowe returned after a minor injury sustained during World Cup qualifiers. Fulham's midfielder Decordova-Reid will orchestrate the team's play in the centre of the park, while Pinnock will patrol the right flank in defence. Stadium The match will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise. Ecuador Ecuador could have won their opening match against Venezuela in the current Copa America but lost due to Enner Valencia's red card. The Tricolours took the lead in the first half, but crumbled in the second half, conceding two goals to Cadiz and Bello. With zero points, advancing to the knockout stage becomes more difficult, especially as the nominal hosts will have to do without their leading striker due to suspension. It's worth noting that Ecuador has never won this tournament before, although they reached the quarter-finals in the previous edition. They also participated in the recent World Cup in Qatar, where they were eliminated in the group stage, and are now trying to qualify for the next World Cup. After six rounds of the qualifiers, Ecuador sits in a respectable 5th place in the standings, ahead of Brazil and Chile. Only Argentina managed to beat them last autumn (1-0); otherwise, the yellow-blues have a great record with three wins and two draws. In preparation for the current Copa America, Felix Sanchez Bas team lost a friendly match to Argentina due to a single Messi goal (1-0), but then secured victories over modest Bolivia (3-1) and Honduras (2-1). Jamaica Jamaica is making only their third appearance in Copa America history, and the Islanders are keen to improve on their two previous group stage exits. However, they started poorly this time as well, losing 1-0 to Mexico in their opening match. One could argue that the Jamaicans deserved more, as they were sometimes more dangerous than their opponents, but their finishing let them down. Moreover, Heimir Hallgrimssons men thought they had taken the lead in the early second half, but Michail Antonio's goal was disallowed by VAR due to offside. So far in 2024, the Reggae Boyz have played seven matches without conceding a first-half goal, although they struggle in attack, failing to score more than one goal in six of their last seven games. Before the Mexico setback, the nominal visitors won two World Cup qualifying matches (2nd round) against the Dominican Republic (1-0) and Dominica (2-3). Head-to-Head Meetings On Thursday, these teams will meet for the sixth time. Jamaica lost the previous four encounters, with the only positive result being a 0-0 draw in a friendly match in August 2009 in New Jersey. Prediction for Ecuador vs Jamaica Having lost in the first round, Ecuador must win this time at all costs; otherwise, they can forget about advancing to the playoffs. However, that's easier said than done, as their main striker, Enner Valencia, will be suspended. Jamaica looked quite good last week and have a decent set of players by Central American standards. I believe the Reggae Boyz's chances of at least not losing heavily are underestimated, so I'll bet on Jamaica's +1.5 handicap. Total Goals Prediction Jamaica's attack features stars like Antonio, Gray, and Spartak Moscow fans favourite Shamar Nicholson. I'll take a risk and bet on the Islanders not leaving the pitch on Thursday without scoring a goal. Corner Kicks Prediction Jamaica had as many as six corner kicks in their match against Mexico, and now, standing on the brink of elimination, they will undoubtedly maintain their offensive intensity. I bet on the Reggae Boyz's individual total over 4.5 corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Ecuador consistently earns two yellow cards per game this year, so I bet this trend will continue, especially against Jamaica's very pacey attack. Score Prediction I'll bet on a 1-1 draw.

On Thursday, June 27, as part of the 12th round of the Brazilian Serie A, Botafogo will host Bragantino at their home ground. The home side has not known victory in their last two matches and has fallen behind league leaders Flamengo, whereas the Bulls have secured sixth place with 18 points. Stadium The match will take place in Rio de Janeiro at the Estdio Olmpico Nilton Santos. Botafogo After three consecutive wins against Gremio (1:2), Fluminense (1:0), and Corinthians (0:1), Botafogo has literally slowed down, drawing 1:1 with Atletico Paranaense and losing 2:1 to a struggling Criciuma last week. The Tigers took the lead in the first half through Gustavo Barreto; after the break, Lucas Halter equalised, but Arthur scored in the 84th minute. As a result, the black-and-whites are now four points behind league leaders Flamengo, making it crucial for them to win this time around. Lately, Arthur Jorge's squad has shown clear problems with defence, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last three Serie A outings. In fact, another mishap would mean the two-time Brazilian champions could go winless in three matches for the first time since April. Notably, Botafogo is only seventh in the overall standings for home points (10 in 5 home matches, 9 goals scored, 4 conceded). Bragantino Occupying the sixth place in the championship and trailing Botafogo by two points, Red Bull Bragantino have every chance to overtake the black-and-whites on Thursday night, especially after securing a crucial 2:1 win over Vitoria a few days ago following a defeat to reigning champions Palmeiras (2:1). In the first half, both teams exchanged goals through Jean Mota and Erick Ramirez, and Elinho scored in the 66th minute. Pedro Caixinha's charges could even break into the top four under favourable circumstances, despite having won back-to-back matches only once this season, in April against Vasco da Gama and Corinthians. The Bulls' away results leave much to be desired: they have only one victory from five away matches.However, Bragantino's attack is in top form: the white-and-reds have scored in eight consecutive matches in all competitions. Head-to-Head Bragantino has not won any of the last six head-to-head meetings with Botafogo. The previous encounter between these teams ended in a 1:1 draw. Match Prediction: Botafogo vs Bragantino Botafogo has not lost to Bragantino in head-to-head matches since 2020, and although they have struggled in the last two rounds, the black-and-whites will undoubtedly do everything to delight their fans on Thursday. The hosts simply cannot afford another slip-up, as they are already 4 points behind Flamengo. Bragantino is not very effective on the road, so dont expect too much from the Bulls - Im backing a victory for Botafogo. Prediction on Total The black-and-whites have netted nine goals in the last five rounds and boast an excellent attacking line led by Junior Santos. Im betting on an individual total over 1.5 goals for the hosts. Prediction on Corners With the support of their home crowd, Botafogo will play on the front foot and will go all out to break down the opposition's defence from the first minute. Im backing a victory for the hosts in corners. Prediction on Yellow Cards Both teams average around three yellow cards per game this season, so Im betting on the total number of cautions to be over 4.5. Score Prediction I predict a 2:1 win for Botafogo.
