England - Premier League

Odds: 1.69Stake: 5/10

On Sunday, 19 May, as part of the 38th round of the Premier League, Manchester City will host West Ham. Pep Guardiola's men are just 90 minutes away from clinching their fourth consecutive title, but the Hammers will look to spoil the party in David Moyes' last match in charge. Stadium The match will take place at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester. Manchester City Manchester City are charging towards their fourth consecutive league title, but they still need a victory on Sunday. The Citizens top the Premier League table, sitting 2 points clear of Arsenal, who host Everton. Last week, Guardiola's side dispatched Tottenham (0-2), securing their eighth consecutive victory. Remarkably, since the beginning of December, the Mancunians have remained unbeaten in the league (18 wins and 4 draws). Erling Haaland scored twice in the second half, but it was substitute goalkeeper Stefan Ortega who emerged as the hero, making several key saves in the closing minutes. Next weekend, Manchester City will face Manchester United in the FA Cup final, but for now, their focus is firmly on the Premier League. A fact that will delight every fan: the hosts haven't lost in their last 43 home matches across all competitions a club record. Ederson was forced off with an injury in the last round, and Ortega will again deputise on Sunday. Erling Haaland (27 goals and 5 assists in the Premier League) has rediscovered his form and will spearhead the attack, aided by Foden (17 goals and 8 assists), Bernardo Silva (6 goals and 7 assists), De Bruyne (4 goals and 10 assists), and Rodri (7 goals and 9 assists). West Ham Initially seen as contenders for European qualification, West Ham have fallen short of their goal. The Londoners currently sit 9th in the Premier League table, trailing 7th place by five points. In their last 10 matches, the Hammers have won just twice, drawn four times, and lost four times. After four winless rounds, Moyes' side triumphed over relegated Luton Town (3-1) in front of their home fans. Albert Sambi Lokonga put the Hatters ahead before half-time, but second-half goals from James Ward-Prowse, Tomas Soucek, and young George Earthy sealed the victory. Notably, Sunday's match will mark the end of Moyes' four-year tenure at West Ham, and the Englishman is keen to end this chapter of his managerial career on a high note by claiming his first win at the Etihad. It is noteworthy that the Londoners rank only eighth in the overall standings for points earned away from home (23 in 18 matches, 28 goals scored, 43 conceded). Head-to-Head The visitors have lost 15 of their previous 17 meetings at the Etihad (with a 1-1 draw in January 2008 and a 2-1 win in September 2015 being the exceptions), and they have conceded at least one goal in all 17 away Premier League encounters with Man City. Manchester City vs West Ham Match Prediction Man City have looked impeccable in the league over the past few weeks, and it is almost impossible to foresee a slip-up at such a pivotal moment of the season, especially on home turf. West Ham have been far from impressive this spring and have consistently struggled at the Etihad over the years. Confidently back the favourites with a -2.5 handicap. Total Goals Prediction The hosts will charge at the opponent's goal from the first minute, eager to delight their fans with a flurry of goals. Bet on the individual total over 3 for the Mancunians. Corner Kicks Prediction Man City will dominate throughout the match and are likely to win the corner kick battle with a -3.5 handicap. Yellow Cards Prediction West Ham will have to do plenty of defending, making it unlikely to avoid fouls at the Etihad. The Londoners will take the upper hand in yellow cards with a -1.5 handicap. Score Prediction Bet on a precise scoreline of 4-1 in favour of Man City.

On Sunday, 19 May, Crystal Palace will host Aston Villa at Selhurst Park in London as part of the 38th round of the Premier League. Last weekend, the Eagles dismantled Wolverhampton 1-3, while Birminghams men snatched a draw in a dramatic shootout with Liverpool on Monday. Crystal Palace Crystal Palace occupies the 12th position in the Premier League standings and no longer has any objectives in the final round of the campaign. Oliver Glasners side, once facing relegation threats, has hit a brilliant stride in spring: especially impressive is their current run of five wins and a draw in the last six matches. After a 1-1 victory over Fulham, Crystal Palace defeated Manchester United 4-0 and Wolverhampton 1-3 last weekend. Michael Olise, fan favourite Jean-Philippe Mateta and Eberechi Eze scored, giving the red-and-blues a chance to finish in the upper half of the overall standings (assuming Brighton and Bournemouth drop points on Sunday). Its worth noting that Palace hasnt been too successful at home this season, ranking 15th in points earned at Selhurst Park (25). However, fans are undoubtedly pleased that their favourites have netted 15 goals in the last five rounds the second-best record in the division after Manchester City. Aston Villa Few would have expected Aston Villa to finish in the top 4 this season, but Unai Emerys team defied all predictions, securing 4th place in the Premier League standings and booking themselves a spot in the Champions League. In recent weeks, the yellow-blues havent looked as impressive: theyve won only twice in the last 7 rounds, drawing 3 times and losing twice. After a 1-0 victory over Brighton, Birmingham's men shared points with Liverpool on Monday evening (3-3): Youri Tielemans scored in the first half, while John Duran netted a brace at the end of the match. Its worth noting that Villa are fourth overall in points earned away (28 in 18 away matches, 28 goals scored, and as many conceded). Unai Emery must be concerned that his players have been consistently conceding in recent matches across all competitions. Head-to-Head The first-round encounter ended with a convincing 3-1 victory for Aston Villa. However, the Eagles have won four times in the last five home matches against Birmingham's men. Prediction for Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa Crystal Palace has won all three of their last home matches with a total score of 11-2 and has gained excellent momentum in spring. The visitors are worn out by injury troubles and have already secured their primary season objective a spot in the Champions League, reducing their motivation for the final round. I believe the red-and-blues will want to delight their fans with a bright victory at last, so Im betting on a triumphant Londoners. Prediction for Total Goals Both teams score over 1.5 goals per game on average and have a lavish attacking line. I expect a high-scoring shootout at Selhurst Park and bet on a total over 2.5 goals. Prediction for Corners Both sides advocate an attacking style of football and have dynamic attacking flanks. I bet on a total over 8.5 corners. Prediction for Yellow Cards Considering the lack of motivation for both sides, there's no reason to expect a rough clash in the season's final round. I bet on a total under 4.5 yellow cards. Score Prediction Im betting on an exact score of 2-1 in favour of Crystal Palace.

Italy - Serie A

Odds: 3.61Stake: 5/10

On Sunday, 19 May, in the framework of the 37th round of the Italian Serie A, "Monza" will host "Frosinone". The lacklustre season finish from the Biancorossi gives the Canaries hope for a much-needed victory, as the guests are ahead of 18th-placed "Empoli" only by goal difference. Stadium The match will take place in Monza at the Brianteo Stadium. "Monza" In their second Serie A season, "Monza" managed to secure their place in the top division once again. The Lombardy-based team currently occupies the 12th spot in the standings with 45 points from 36 matches, falling just short of contending for the European spots. The Biancorossi cannot drop below 12th place, with "Lecce" trailing Palladinos side by eight points. In recent weeks, the hosts have not been able to secure a win since returning from the international break in March (3 draws and 4 losses). They split points with "Lecce" (1-1) and "Lazio" (2-2), but last Monday, "Monza" fell to "Fiorentina" (2-1). Milan Djurić put the white and reds ahead early in the match, but "La Viola" turned the game around thanks to efforts from Gonzalez and Arthur Melo. It is important to note that "Monza" ranks only 13th in the overall standings for points accumulated at home (24 in 18 home fixtures, 23 goals scored, 25 conceded). "Frosinone" Having returned to the top division last summer, "Frosinone" is expectedly fighting to avoid relegation. With 2 rounds remaining in the national championship, the Canaries sit in the 17th spot in the Serie A standings, sharing the same number of points as the trailing "Empoli". The team recently ended a 12-match winless streak (6 draws and 6 losses) by beating struggling "Salernitana" 3-0. They then drew 0-0 with direct survival competitor "Empoli" and last weekend suffered a heavy defeat at home to "Inter" (0-5). It's worth mentioning that the yellow and blues are the absolute worst team in the Serie A for performances on the road (7 points in 18 away fixtures, 15 goals scored, 37 conceded). Canaries fans will be pleased that their favourites have managed to keep a clean sheet four times in the last six rounds. Head-to-Head The first-round duel ended with a thrilling victory for "Monza" away with a score of 2-3. Furthermore, the guests have never beaten the Biancorossi at their home ground. Match Prediction: "Monza" vs "Frosinone" Apart from the defeat to "Inter", "Frosinone" has looked decent in recent weeks. Nonetheless, wins come hard for Di Francesco's men, and their away form concerns their supporters. "Monza" is winding down the season without much motivation but intends to bid farewell to their fans in the final home match of the championship. My prediction is a draw. Total Prediction In the last five head-to-head encounters, these teams have always exchanged goals. There is every reason to believe it will be the same this time around. Corner Prediction "Frosinone" is motivated by the survival battle and will be forced to attack. I predict the Canaries will have an Individual Total Over 4.5 corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Neither team is particularly known for excessive rough play, averaging only 2 yellow cards per game. I predict a Total Under 4.5 yellow cards. Score Prediction I predict a final score of 1-1.

Dallas Mavericks and Oklahoma City Thunder will face off tomorrow morning in Game 6 of the NBA Western Conference. Dallas Mavericks Dallas Mavericks are on the verge of making it to the conference finals after a crucial victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Luka Dončić once again showcased his leadership skills, achieving a triple-double with 31 points, 11 assists, and 10 rebounds. His performance helped the team take control in Game 5 of the series, where the Mavericks displayed a high shooting percentage. Kyrie Irving highlighted that the series against the Thunder has been one of the toughest of his career, noting the need to maintain a high level of concentration. Irving also mentioned that the team's success is possible only if every player feels at their best, stressing the importance of teamwork and mutual support. The Mavericks exhibit confidence and unity, bolstered by excellent performances not just from stars but also from bench players. Dereck Lively and Derrick Jones Jr. made significant contributions to the team's success, helping to maintain the lead and control the game in the second half. Derrick Jones contributed 19 points, while Dereck Lively added 11 points along with 10 rebounds off the bench. Overall, the Dallas Mavericks showed high efficiency, shooting 52% from the field and sinking 14 out of 35 three-pointers. They managed to take the initiative confidently, scoring 30 points in the second quarter and taking a double-digit lead. In the second half, the team demonstrated excellent defence, maintaining the lead over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Kyrie Irving had a less conspicuous game, scoring only 12 points and recording 4 assists, hitting 5 out of 11 shots in 39 minutes on the court. This approach gives the Mavericks a good chance to close out the series in their favour in the next game. Oklahoma City Thunder The Oklahoma City Thunder are facing the task of saving their season after losing to the Dallas Mavericks 92-104 in Game 5. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander once again led the team, scoring 30 points. The team performed well despite the loss, keeping the score close until the end of the first half. However, poor three-point shooting (10 out of 40) played against them. In response to the loss, the Thunder coaching staff made changes to the lineup, benching Josh Giddey. Despite the adjustments, the team couldn't improve their offensive results as Isaiah Joe managed only 6 points. Chet Holmgren added 13 points, while Jalen Williams and Lu Dort each scored 12 points. Overall, Oklahoma City Thunder shot just 42% from the field and 10 out of 40 from three-point range. Despite being 10 points behind at halftime, the team managed to keep the game competitive. Josh Giddey scored 11 points in 12 minutes off the bench, while Isaiah Joe managed just six points, hitting two out of nine shots. The Thunder understand the difficulty of winning the next game on the road but are determined to fight until the end. Jalen Williams emphasized the importance of commitment and team play. He stated that the team can succeed if they stick to their game plan and ignore external pressure. This shows that the Thunder are not giving up and are ready to fight for every opportunity to turn the series around. Match Prediction: Dallas Mavericks vs. Oklahoma City Thunder I anticipate a seventh game in the series, as both teams are evenly matched, although the Mavericks have more experience. The Thunder's bench has been performing excellently all season, which could play a crucial role in tomorrow's endurance battle. Im placing my bet on the visitors with high odds.

On Sunday, 19 May Chelsea will host Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge in the final matchday of the Premier League. While the Blues are vying for a top-six finish, the Cherries find themselves in 11th position and could potentially climb higher with a successful performance. Chelsea After yet another disappointing season, Chelsea still have the opportunity to secure a spot in the Europa League or the Conference League. The Londoners currently sit in 6th place in the Premier League, 3 points behind the 5th-placed Tottenham and leading the 8th-placed Man United by 3 points. The hosts have suffered just one defeat in their last 14 matches, winning eight and drawing five. Mauricio Pochettinos men have sequentially defeated Tottenham (2-0), West Ham (5-0), Nottingham Forest (3-2), and Brighton (2-1) this week. Cole Palmer opened the scoring with his 22nd goal of the season, and Christopher Nkunku doubled Chelsea's lead mid-second half; however, Danny Welbeck's late goal had little impact on the final outcome. Chelsea are eager to return to Stamford Bridge, where they have won nine of their last 11 home matches in the Premier League, scoring 32 goals in the process. Defender Fofana, midfielders Enzo Fernandez and Lavia, as well as backup goalkeeper Sanchez, remain out due to physical issues. Moreover, right-back Reece James will be suspended this Sunday due to a red card. Youth talent Ugochukwu has recovered from a long-term injury and hopes to get some game time, while Nkunku will likely take his place in the final third. Palmer (22 goals and 10 assists) and Jackson (14 goals and 5 assists) will also be crucial for creating attacking opportunities, with Chalobah, Badiashile, and Cucurella forming the defensive trio. Bournemouth Bournemouth defied expectations this season by comfortably avoiding a relegation battle. Andoni Iraolas men sit 11th in the Premier League table with a record-point tally of 48 for the club. However, the red and black have slowed down in recent weeks, suffering 4 defeats in their last 7 matches, with 2 wins and 1 draw. In May, the visitors lost to Arsenal (3-0) and Brentford (2-1); Dominic Solanke equalised late on, but Brentfords Yoane Wissa scored the decisive goal in the 95th minute. A win on Sunday could see Bournemouth overtake Brighton, who face Man United at home, and finish in the top half for the first time since the 2016-17 season. The visitors rank a commendable ninth in overall away points (21 in 18 away matches, with 26 goals scored and 37 conceded). Missing from Bournemouths line-up are defenders Fredericks and Mepham, as well as winger Sinisterra (2 goals and 2 assists). Additionally, key left-back Kerkez is suspended. Striker Solanke (19 goals) has been particularly impressive this season, and he is expected to lead the attacking line. Supporting him on the flanks will be Semenyo (8 goals and 2 assists) and Kluivert (7 goals), while Neto, Philip Billing, Tyler Adams, Marcus Tavernier, and Enes Unal are also eager for game time in the final match. Head-to-Head Bournemouth have boasted the best win record among all teams visiting Stamford Bridge in recent years, winning three times in their last six visits. The reverse fixture ended in a goalless draw. Prediction for Chelsea vs Bournemouth Bournemouth have the attributes to trouble the Blues, but Pochettinos team have looked invincible at home in recent weeks and are motivated for a European spot. Chelsea have found excellent form in the final stretch of the season, with many previously injured players returning. My prediction is a home win with a -1 handicap.

On Sunday, 19 May, Burnley will host Nottingham Forest in the 38th round of the Premier League. Last weekend, the Foresters failed to ensure their elite status, losing at home to Chelsea 2-3, while the Lancashire side officially lost their chances for survival after a 2-1 defeat against Tottenham. Burnley Sitting 19th in the Premier League table and trailing Nottingham Forest in 17th by 5 points, Burnley can no longer hope to retain their spot in the elite division. Vincent Kompany's team has amassed just 25 points in 37 rounds, which explains why the Clarets have only one win, four draws, and three losses in their last eight matches. After defeating Manchester United 1-1, the hosts subsequently lost to Newcastle (1-4) and Tottenham last weekend (2-1). Jacob Bruun Larsen's goal brought hope to the underdog, but Pedro Porro and Micky van de Ven turned the game around to secure all three points for the Londoners. Burnley has managed just 18 goals at home, the worst in the league, and hasn't kept a clean sheet in their last 10 matches at Turf Moor. Moreover, the Lancastrians have secured only 10 points from 18 home matches, the second-worst in the league (after Sheffield). Burnley's squad is weakened by injuries: defenders Al-Dakhil and Ekdal, as well as wingers Ramsey, Koleosho, and Redmond are out. Bruun Larsen (6 goals) scored last round and deserves to start, while Frenchman Odobert (19 years old, 3 goals and 2 assists) is set to lead the attack. Fofana (4 goals) and Foster (5 goals and 3 assists) are in contention for the second striker position, while Charlie Taylor or Maxime Estev could play on the right side of defence. Nottingham Forest Despite a 4-point deduction due to financial misconduct, Nottingham Forest has a good chance to stay in the top flight. They are 17th in the Premier League table, three points clear of the drop zone, with a decent goal difference. The Reds have won only twice, drawn three times, and lost seven times in their last 12 rounds. After a 1-3 victory over Sheffield United, Nottingham Forest lost to Chelsea last weekend (2-3). Callum Hudson-Odoi and Willy Boly responded to Mykhailo Mudryk's early goal, but in the last 10 minutes, Raheem Sterling and Nicolas Jackson completed a comeback. Nuno Esprito Santo's team has conceded in their last six away league games. The visitors are third from the bottom in the overall standings for points gained at home. Defender Neco Williams is out due to injury, but all key players are ready for the match. Right-back Gonzalo Montiel, a World Cup winner, made headlines last week due to allegations of sexual assault in 2019, which he denies his participation on Sunday remains doubtful. New Zealand striker Wood (12 goals), attacking midfielders Gibbs-White (5 goals and 10 assists) and Hudson-Odoi (8 goals), winger Elanga (5 goals and 8 assists), and Nigerian Awoniyi (6 goals and 3 assists) are expected to start in attack. Head-to-Head Recently, Burnley has not lost to Forest in eight consecutive meetings since their 2-0 defeat in December 2012. The first round of the current campaign ended in a 1-1 draw. Prediction for Burnley Nottingham Forest Burnley has no tournament motivation and Vincent Kompany's team will just try to please their fans before returning to the Championship. Forest is also almost certainly safe in the elite division and will not push too hard. These teams have drawn in 4 of their last 7 head-to-head meetings, so I predict another draw.

On Sunday, 19 May, in the 38th round of the EPL, Brighton will host Manchester United. While the Red Devils still have a chance at securing a place in European competitions, the Seagulls have faltered in the second half of the season and will aim to avoid dropping further down the table. Brighton Brighton currently sits in 10th place on the Premier League table and lacks significant motivation for the final round. In the last nine matches, the Seagulls have managed just one win, drawing three times and losing five matches. Following a 1-1 draw with Newcastle last weekend, Roberto De Zerbi's side suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Chelsea this week. Danny Welbeck's 97th-minute strike offered scant consolation as Cole Palmer and Christopher Nkunku secured victory for the Londoners. If Brighton drops points on Sunday, they could fall into the lower half of the table, allowing Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, or Wolverhampton Wanderers to surpass them. Furthermore, Brighton has struggled to score more than one goal per game since mid-February and ranks 9th in home points (30 points in 18 matches, 30 goals scored, 25 conceded). The home side's squad is weakened by the absence of key wingers Mitoma (3 goals and 4 assists) and March (3 goals in 7 matches), defenders Hinshelwood and Estupin, promising forward Ferguson (6 goals), centre-back van Hecke, and veteran Milner. There's also uncertainty over the fitness of centre-back Veltman. Last weekend, Danny Welbeck (5 goals) scored a goal after coming on as a substitute, and the Englishman may start alongside Adingra (6 goals) and Joo Pedro (9 goals and 3 assists). Manchester United Manchester United has been one of the biggest disappointments of the season, with little chance of qualifying for European competitions via the league. Currently sitting 8th in the Premier League table, the Red Devils trail 6th place by 3 points and have an unfavourable goal difference. Erik ten Hag's side has won just twice in their last nine matches, drawing four times and losing three. Following defeats to Crystal Palace (4-0) and Arsenal (1-0), Manchester United triumphed over Newcastle at home this week (3-2), with goals from Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo, and Rasmus Hjlund. However, success on Sunday is not guaranteed as the visitors have failed to win any of their last five away league matches. In terms of points earned away, United ranks 7th overall (24 points in 18 matches, 24 goals scored, 30 conceded). The Red Devils are without defenders Shaw, Maguire, and Lindelf, attacking midfielder Mount, and wing-back Malacia. Additionally, Raphael Varane's and Martial's fitness remains in doubt. Lisandro Martinez and winger Rashford (7 goals) returned last week and are likely to feature, while Hjlund (9 goals) and Bruno Fernandes (10 goals and 8 assists) will be key players in attack. Wan-Bissaka and Dalot will anchor the flanks of the defence, with Evans and Casemiro in the centre. Head-to-Head Four of Manchester United's last six trips to Brighton ended in defeat (67%) - the highest rate among all the teams in the division. The reverse fixture saw the Seagulls claim a 3-1 victory. Prediction for Brighton vs Manchester United Manchester United is driven by the quest for a European spot and cannot afford to slip up, but their recent results against Brighton are not encouraging. While it remains uncertain if De Zerbi will leave Brighton this summer, the hosts will aim to delight their home fans in the final round. I'm predicting a draw.

On Sunday, at Gillette Stadium, New England Revolution will face Philadelphia Union. New England Revolution The new season has not started well for the squad, accumulating 7 points from 11 rounds. In their 7th game, New England lost to New York City with a score of 0-2. Afterwards, they suffered a narrow defeat to Toronto. In the next round, they were thrashed at home by Inter Miami with a score of 1-4. However, they managed to clinch a narrow win over Chicago in the following game. In their most recent match, they were defeated by the Red Bulls with a score of 2-4. Philadelphia Union This season, the squad is having a slightly worse run than last year. They are currently 9th in the Eastern Conference. Following a defeat to Real Salt Lake with a score of 1-2, the squad also went down against Seattle, 2-3. They then drew 2-2 with DC United. In the next match, they suffered a loss to Orlando City with a score of 2-3. In their most recent game, they were beaten by New York City with a score of 1-2. Head-to-head The last match between New England and Philadelphia took place on 14 February 2024. That encounter ended in a goalless draw. Prediction In the upcoming round, I suggest betting on a zero handicap for the visitors. Philadelphia's recent performances have not been outstanding, but these setbacks were only concerning home games. On the road, the squad performs quite well, so there's a fair chance they could secure points in this match. Total Goals Prediction In this matchup, I would bet on a total over 2.5 goals, given that both teams tend to have fairly high-scoring games.

Tomorrow at the Chase Stadium, "Inter Miami" will face "DC United". Inter Miami After 14 games in the new season, the team continues to lead the Eastern Conference, boasting the best goal-scoring record in the championship. In the 10th round, they clinched a victory over Nashville (3-1). In the next away game, they thrashed New England Revolution (4-1). Following that, they defeated New York Red Bulls (6-2). Then, they edged out Montreal (3-2). In their last match, they played a goalless draw with Orlando. DC United This season, the team hasn't had such a strong start. They are currently in 8th place in the Eastern Conference. In the 9th round of the season, they suffered a defeat to New York (0-2). They then secured a win over Seattle Sounders (2-1). After that, they drew with Philadelphia Union (2-2). In the next game, they beat Atlanta (3-2). In their last match, the lads suffered a home defeat to New York Red Bulls (1-4). Head-to-head The last match between Inter Miami and DC United took place on 16 March 2024. In that game, Miami won against their rivals with a score of 3-1. Forecast In the upcoming confrontation, I would suggest betting on Inter's victory. They are in excellent form, maintaining a prolonged unbeaten streak. DC United have also been performing decently lately, but against strong opponents, they tend to falter and lose. Total Bet I believe that the teams won't display a high-scoring game, so I suggest betting on total over 2.5.

Nashville They are currently in 10th place in the Eastern Conference, which is quite disappointing for the team, considering they were one of the favourites last season. In the 8th round, they lost to Inter with a score of (1:3). In the next match, they played a draw with San Jose (1:1). The team then secured a victory against Montreal with a score of (4:1). Afterwards, Nashville was narrowly defeated by Charlotte. In their most recent game, they managed to win against Toronto (2:0). Atlanta This season, the team has been performing averagely. They are currently in 12th place in the Eastern Conference. Following a defeat to Cincinnati (1:2), they had a goalless draw with Chicago. In the next round, the team suffered a loss against Minnesota with a score of (1:2). The team then lost to DC United (2:3). Their most recent game ended in a narrow defeat to Cincinnati. Head-to-Head The last time these teams faced each other was on 27 August 2023. In that encounter, Atlanta emerged victorious with a score of (4:0). Prediction In the upcoming clash, I would suggest betting on Nashville's victory, as their performance at home is quite strong. Atlanta has not been showing the best results in recent matches, especially on the road. Total Prediction I believe both teams will put on a goal-packed performance, so I would propose betting on a total over 2.5 goals.

This Saturday, the match between Slovacko and Slavia Prague is set to take place in the Czech league. Current Form of Slovacko On 14 May, in the match against Mlada Boleslav, Slovacko clinched a 1-0 victory. The pivotal moment of the match occurred at its very beginning. In the 4th minute, Slovacko player Petr Juroka scored the only goal of the game, which ultimately decided the outcome. Slovacko is currently in 6th place in the Czech league standings with 44 points after 33 matches (12 wins, 13 losses, and 8 draws). This victory was a significant morale boost for the team, which had been in less than stellar form with 2 draws and 3 losses in their last five matches. Current Form of Slavia Prague On 15 May, Slavia Prague showcased their prowess in their match against Viktoria Plzen, securing a 3-0 win. This match solidified Slavia's position in second place in the Czech championship for the 2023/2024 season. Currently, Slavia has played 33 games, winning 24, suffering only 2 losses, and drawing 7 times. With 70 goals scored and 23 conceded, the team has amassed 79 points, maintaining their contention for the top spots. Viktoria Plzen holds the third position with 68 points, having achieved 21 wins and 7 losses this season. However, their point deficit precludes them from seriously contesting for the lead. Slovacko vs Slavia Prague Match Prediction Slavia is just 4 points behind the leader Sparta, and I'm expecting a confident away victory over the last team in the relegation group.

Today, as part of Group B of the Ice Hockey World Championship in the Czech Republic, the national teams of Germany and Poland will face off. Germany National Team In the 2024 Ice Hockey World Championship, the German team is reaffirming their ambitions aimed at reaching the playoffs by showcasing strong performances against direct competitors. Following their successful run in the previous tournament where the Germans clinched silver, they continue to follow Coach Harold Kreis's strategy. Despite the absence of their star player, Leon Draisaitl, Germany has successfully defeated teams such as Slovakia and Latvia with scores of 6-4 and 8-1 respectively, as well as Kazakhstan with a score of 8-2, demonstrating a high level of shot conversion. Germany is currently displaying impressive scoring rates, especially in matches against weaker opponents. NHL leader John-Jason Peterka stands out with his performance, having accumulated 6 points in the last two games. Additionally, ethnic Pole Wojciech Stachowiak has also made a significant contribution with 4 assists. These victories have allowed Germany to occupy high positions in the standings, solidifying their third place in their group and highlighting their ability to dominate weaker teams. However, despite their success against lower-ranked teams, Germany has faced difficulties in matches against the leaders of the group. Losses to the USA and Sweden, both with a score of 1-6, highlight the team's defensive issues that have led to numerous dangerous moments at the Germans' goal. These matches have been a severe test for the squad, exposing weak points that need to be addressed for successful performances in the upcoming rounds of the tournament. Poland National Team The Poland national team, having returned to the top division of world ice hockey for the first time in the last two decades, has faced significant challenges in the 2024 World Championship. Their new campaign began with a tense match against Latvia, ending in a 4-5 overtime loss. This result showcased the Polish team's potential; however, subsequent games revealed significant weaknesses, leading to a series of losses and evident last place in the Group B standings. In their last game against the USA, the Polish team valiantly fell short with a score of 1-4, conceding two goals in each of the following periods after a 0-0 draw in the first 20 minutes. The lone goal for Poland was scored by Grzegorz Pasiut, which provided little solace for the team that couldn't turn the tide of the game. The team's prospects have been further exacerbated by the absence of key players due to injuries, making the task of staying in the elite division even more formidable. With 7 consecutive losses, including 2 in overtime and one in a shootout, the Polish team's morale isn't at its best. At this point, it's highly unlikely that Poland will be able to put up any substantial resistance in the remaining matches. The expectation is that the team might once again exit Division A following the current championship, which will be a disappointment for both players and fans. Head-to-Head The teams last met back in 1992 when Germany triumphed with a score of 11-0 at the World Championship, and earlier in the same year, they won 4-0 at the Olympics. Match Prediction: Germany vs Poland Though Poland is the clear underdog, they haven't lost by more than 4 goals even to the powerful Americans. Germany has almost secured their playoff spot, but Poland will definitely put up a fight. Im betting on Poland's handicap (+4).

In Group A of the World Ice Hockey Championship in the Czech Republic, the national teams of Canada and Finland will face off. Team Canada Team Canada, as one of the main contenders for the 2024 World Ice Hockey Championship victory, successfully navigated the group stage, winning all 4 matches and amassing 11 points, positioning them second in Group A. The Canadians displayed impressive scoring prowess, netting 20 goals while conceding 10. The initial games against relatively weaker opponents such as Great Britain, Hungary, Denmark, and Austria served as effective warm-ups before more serious challenges. However, not all matches were smooth for the "Maple Leafs." Despite significant victories, the game against Austria exposed certain defensive issues within the team. Leading 6:1 after two periods, the Canadians allowed the Austrians to equalise in the third period, necessitating overtime, where Canada clinched a 7:6 victory. This game highlighted the team's instability despite their formidable roster, including stars like John Tavares. Upcoming matches for Canada include stronger opponents such as Finland, Switzerland, and the Czech Republic. These fixtures will be true tests for the team, as bookmakers and experts expect to see higher-quality hockey, particularly in the playoffs. Canada has prepared seriously for their first tough challenge against Finland, with two days of rest to demonstrate their best hockey at the tournament. Team Finland At the 2024 World Ice Hockey Championship, Team Finland, led by coach Jukka Jalonen, is displaying their traditionally high level of game organisation, even in the absence of standout stars. The team is known for their disciplined defence and ability to capitalise on offensive opportunities, often leading to success at international tournaments. In the current championship, the Finns have already secured three wins, including impressive results against Great Britain (8:0) and Norway (4:1), but also suffered two unexpected losses to the Czech Republic (0:1 in a shootout) and Austria (2:3), placing them fourth in Group A with a total of 14 goals scored and 5 conceded. The Finnish team encountered unforeseen difficulties in their game against Austria, where despite an early two-goal lead, they relinquished the victory, serving as a serious lesson. Despite their potential and quality of play, the Finns are struggling with consistency, as seen in their inability to maintain a lead during critical moments. These instances are particularly painful given the need to accumulate points to strengthen their position in the standings. The next match against a strong Canadian team will be a significant test for the Finns. Last year, in the quarterfinal stage, Canada claimed a convincing 4:1 victory, leaving Finland without medals. This clash with Canada, who boast one of the strongest rosters in the tournament, will be a crucial moment for the Finnish team in their quest to progress from the group and redeem themselves from last year's setbacks. Head-to-head In recent years, matches between Canada and Finland in international tournaments have often been bright and memorable. Since 2021, the teams have met 5 times, showcasing intense and equal battles. Their last match took place on 25 May 2023 at the World Championship, where Canada achieved a convincing 4:1 victory. A year earlier, in the World Championship final, Finland triumphed in overtime with a 4:3 score, taking home the gold medals. In December 2021, at the Channel One Cup, the Finns also demonstrated their superiority, defeating Canada 4:1. However, the same year at the World Championship held in the summer, the scenario was different; on 6 June 2021, Canada edged out with a 3:2 overtime victory. Their clash on 1 June 2021 at the World Championship was equally thrilling, with Finland overcoming Canada in a shootout contest with a 3:2 score. Prediction for the Canada vs Finland match After their fiasco against Austria, the Finns are clearly determined to fight to keep their chances of progressing from the group alive. The Canadians also managed to take the game against Austria to overtime despite leading 6:1. Therefore, I am betting on a positive handicap for the nominal visitors. Jalonen's men need to pull themselves together.

On Sunday, May 19, in the 38th round of the Premier League, Brentford will host Newcastle United. Last Wednesday at Old Trafford, the Magpies faced a significant setback, dropping out of the European competition zone, while the Bees are enjoying a relaxed end to their season, sitting comfortably in 16th place overall. Brentford Brentford is 16th in the Premier League standings, with 13 points separating them from the relegation zone. Under Thomas Frank's guidance, the team has hit a good run of form recently, losing only once in their last eight matches, with three wins and four draws. The red-and-whites easily defeated already relegated Sheffield United (2-0) and Luton (1-5), and last weekend they secured a 1-2 victory over Bournemouth. After a goalless first half, Bryan Mbeumo scored his ninth goal of the season in the 85th minute. Although the Cherries quickly equalised through Dominic Solanke, Yoane Wissa bagged the winning goal in stoppage time, earning the Bees all three points. Fans will be delighted to know that their favourite team has conceded no more than one goal per game in their last five matches. Brentford has accumulated only 22 points in 18 home matches (the fifth lowest in the division), scoring 27 goals and conceding 30. This weekend, the Londoners will be without defenders Mee, Hickey, and Henry, as well as Dasilva due to injuries. Winger Wissa (11 goals and 2 assists) came on only in the second half last weekend but still managed to find the net. His starting lineup inclusion shouldn't raise any questions. Joining him will be Mbeumo (9 goals and 6 assists) and Toney (4 goals), the 28-year-old striker hoping to make Gareth Southgate's England squad for the European Championship this summer. Sergio Reguiln and Kristoffer Ajer will keep their places on the defensive flanks, while Keane Lewis-Potter is expected to provide a spark off the bench in the second half. Newcastle This season, Newcastle quickly fell out of the race for a top-four finish and are now fighting for a European spot. The Magpies sit 7th in the Premier League standings, which would qualify them for the Conference League if Manchester City wins the FA Cup next weekend. However, Eddie Howe's side remains under threat from Manchester United, who have the same number of points. Newcastle has stumbled in their last two outings, drawing 1-1 with Brighton and losing 3-2 to Manchester United this week. Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo, and Rasmus Hjlund scored for the Red Devils. This season, Newcastle has lost 11 of their 18 away matches in the Premier Leagueonly Brentford (12), Luton (13), and Sheffield United (15) have worse records. On Sunday, the visitors will be without several players due to injuries: central defender Botman, midfielders Willock and Miley, as well as centre-backs Lascelles and Targett. Striker Wilson (9 goals in 19 matches) is also recovering from an injury and is unlikely to be fit for the upcoming weekend. Winger Gordon (11 goals and 10 assists), who scored at Old Trafford, will be entrusted with creative duties in attack alongside Isak, who sits third in the Premier League scoring chart with 20 goals. Harvey Barnes and Miguel Almirn will compete for a position on the wing, while goalkeeper Martin Dbravka might give way to Nick Pope. Head-to-Head The first round meeting ended with a narrow victory for Newcastle, 1-0. Moreover, the Magpies have won their last four head-to-head clashes. Brentford vs Newcastle Prediction Newcastle is motivated to secure a European spot and will be eager to claim all three points in the final round, while Brentford is playing without pressures and winding down their season. However, the Bees are in great form and unbeaten in their last five home games. Therefore, it's reasonable to bet on a draw.

On 18 May, in the 34th round, a clash is set between Borussia Mnchengladbach and Stuttgart. The match will take place at the MHP Arena and will kick off at 13:30. Stuttgart After a series of setbacks, the team has managed to surge back to the summit of the Bundesliga. Currently, Stuttgart has secured a Champions League berth alongside Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich, RB Leipzig, and Borussia Dortmund. They are sitting 3rd in the league table. In the 29th round, they triumphed over Eintracht Frankfurt with a 3-0 victory. However, they subsequently suffered a defeat against Werder Bremen (1-2). Following that, they drew with Bayer Leverkusen (2-2), and then unexpectedly conquered Bayern Munich with a 3-1 scoreline. In their most recent match, they narrowly defeated Augsburg. Borussia Mnchengladbach This season, Borussia Mnchengladbach has not been performing at their best, currently sitting in 13th place with 34 points. After a defeat to Borussia Dortmund (1-2), they lost to Hoffenheim (3-4). In the following game, they had a goalless draw with Union Berlin. They then drew with Werder Bremen (2-2) and, in their latest match, had another draw with Eintracht Frankfurt (1-1). Head-to-Head The last encounter between these teams took place on 14 January 2024. In that match, Borussia clinched a victory with a 3-1 scoreline. Prediction Borussia is currently struggling, having drawn their last three matches and lost the previous two. Stuttgart, on the other hand, are in excellent form, having defeated strong opponents such as Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. Moreover, they will be playing on their home turf, hence I propose betting on them with a handicap of (-1.5).
