Bundesliga
14:30 VfB Stuttgart vs RasenBallsport Leipzig - Prediction 1.0 Current Form * Stuttgart have won their last 4 successive Bundesliga matches. * Stuttgart have won 8 of their last 12 home league matches * RBL have lost 3 of their last 5 away Bundesliga matches * RBL are facing their 6th match since February 15th * Stuttgart have played only 3 matches since February 11th Final Verdict With RBL facing a midweek trip to Russia in the 2nd leg of their Europa League last 16 tie against Zenit, I quite fancy Stuttgart to continue their fine form and claim the scalp of a Leipzig side that have lost 4 of their last 7 away Bundesliga matches. The home side come into this fixture as much the fresher of the two sides, and given their excellent recent form in the Bundesliga, i'm backing the hosts to take the spoils at tasty 7/4 odds. Best Bets Stuttgart DNB @10/11 - 3 stars Stuttgart to win @7/4 - 2 stars 17:00 Borussia Dortmund vs Eintracht Frankfurt - Prediction 2.1 Best Bets BTTS @7/10 - 3 stars BTTS and over 2.5 goals @11/10 - 2.5 stars Current Form * Dortmund have seen BTTS in 14 of their last 16 home matches (all comps) * 12 of those 14 also saw over 2.5 goals scored * Frankfurt have seen BTTS in 8 of their last 11 away matches but not in the last 2 Past Meetings * 5 of the last 7 meetings have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored including each of the last 4 19:45 Inter vs Napoli - Prediction 1.2 Best Bets Napoli to win @19/20 - 2.5 stars Napoli to score 2 or more @1/1 - 2.5 stars Current Form * Napoli are unbeaten in their last 26 away league matches, winning a remarkable 23 and drawing just 3 * Napoli have scored 2 goals or more in 10 of their last 15 away league matches * Napoli scored 5 in their last away outing at Cagliari * Inter have won only 2 of their last 11 Serie A matches (against Bologna and Benevento) * Napoli have scored 2 goals or more in 5 of their last 6 league matches * Napoli have won 10 of their last 11 league matches Final Verdict Napoli travel to Milan knowing nothing less than 3 points will do as they look to get back on track in the Serie A title race following their surprise 4.2 home loss to Roma last Saturday. Inter have struggled for form in 2018, winning just 2 of their last 11 league matches and while those 2 wins did come in their last 3 fixtures, the Gallinari were hardly convincing in those 2 wins over Bologna and Benevento and I expect the visitors to get back to winning ways having won 23 of their last 26 away matches in Serie A. Napoli to win @19/20 is the call here as I am not entirely convinced that Inter are in anyway back to the form that made them title contenders in the earlier part of the season. I fancy Napoli to not only win, but score 2 or more in the process @1/1 although much depends on the attacking intent of the home side with past meetings proving fairly tight affairs, so the 19/20 on the outright win is the main selection here. Serie A 14:00 Bologna vs Atalanta - Prediction 1.2 Best Bets Atalanta to win @19/20 - 3 stars Current Form * Atalanta have won 4 of their last 5 away league matches. They had won only 1 of the previous 10 * Bologna have lost 8 of their last 12 league matches including 3 of their last 6 at home * Bologna are missing 5 first-team regulars for this fixture. Atalanta have everyone available * Bologna have seen BTTS in 8 of their last 12 home league matches * Atalanta have seen BTTS in 9 of their last 12 away league matches Past Meetings * Atalanta have won 6 of the last 7 meetings between these two sides including each of the last 4 La Liga 15:15 Atletico Madrid vs Celta Vigo - Prediction 2.0 Current Form * Atletico have kept a clean sheet in 11 of their last 12 home wins (all comps) * Atletico have won their last 6 home matches. All with clean sheets. * Celta have lost their last 2 away league matches. They failed to score in both * Celta did score at least 1 goal in their 13 previous away league matches Past Meetings * Atletico have won each of the last 4 meetings.They kept a clean sheet in 3 of those wins. Final Verdict When Atletico win, they usually do it with a clean sheet and given their 4/11 odds to claim the 3 points, we should expect another home win here with a clean sheet likely. Best Bet - Atletico to win to nil @21/20 - 2.5 stars Comments are closed.
