Hallo soccer fans!

Weekend picks for you from SoccerVista.com
Have to thanks Xazar7a, Beli, Hunt3r and Ledi17!



Picks by Xazar7a:

As usual I send you mine picks for the weekend, I chose this which i like the most, hope they will be profitable. And to tell you something if you search for banker this weekend i think it is waalwijk, but surely the odds will be not so good, but i think they will win at any price.
Chateauroux - Le Havre	2	2.20	The host are in very bad situation, only 3 points from the relegation zone, and very match is important for them. But after 2 wins over Ajaccio and Montpellier the managed to get only point from their last 4 matches. On the other side Le Havre are in great form and deservely are on the first place. They are 3 points in front of the second Nantes, besides Le Havre are with match in hand. There are not a lot rounds till the end of the season and it will be good if Le Havre finish first earlier. They are the better team here and i think away win is good bet here.
Niort - Troyes	under 2.5	1.55	Troyes with match in hand in difference with the other team which are in the battle for the first 3 places. Troyes has 54 points with 1 less than Grenoble, which are on the third place. Niort are in big danger they has 34 points and are just over the relegation line, the team after them Dijon is with match in hand and if they win it Niort go just under the relegation line. Troyes are was in very bad row but in the last match they showed improvement. Niort made some better games. So i expect here one hard match and will go for under 2.5 goals here.
Waalwijk - Fortuna	1	1.20	This for me is the banker of the weekend. Waalwijk are on the second place with equal points with the leader Volendam but with worse goal difference. They need nothing but the three points here, and even then they could not win the title, if Volendam win and Waalwijk have still worse goal difference. Fortuna play for nothing here, Waalwijk is very strong team. I simply can see only home win here.
Den Haag - Volendam	2	1.90	Waalwijk's match looks easy but Volendam face difficult challenge. Den Haag lay on the sixth place and they could not be moved from their place. They didn't show very good performance in last time, while Volendam play simply great. Despite that Den haag are the hosts of this match, Volendam will be very motivated to get he points because only after win here they will win the title. So i go here for away win.
Arsenal - Reading	1	1.25	Both teams are i can say in very bad form. Arsenal is like is not Arsenal. While Reading record bad after bad match and now they are only 3 points from the relegation zone. Arsenal very very hardly can win the title but there is still hope, they have problems with injured players but i think there are enough classy players now. I think this will be the match with which they will get back on track. Home win here.
Roma - Livorno	1	1.23	Roma played in the middle of the week for the Italian Cup and maybe some of the players will be tired. But Roma are only 4 points after Inter and they will be very motivated to win every match till the end of the season. Livorno are on the bottom of the table and will have to fight to stay in Serie A. But in this match i think they have no chance, Roma is surely the better team. Home win here.
Aston Villa - Birmingham	both teams to score	1.70	I will not miss to watch this match, it will be great derby. Aston Villa scored 10 goals in their last 2 matches and now are ready and motivated for Birmingham. They on the other side are attractive for me in my opinion, i've watched their matches and I with they will not relegate. Despite Villa is in very good form and try to get a place in Uefa and Birmingham are not the hardest opponent, I think it will be very hard match. I expect here strong battle and the most important goals here. I will go for both teams to score.

Picks by Beli:

Parndorf - Bad Aussee	1	1.50	If there is game that Parndorf is favorite then must be this one.Parndorf are in relay bad form.In last game Parndorf lost from Austria Salzburg 3-0 away in last 5 games they won 1 and lost 4 games ( all lost games where away).At home Parndorf won 4 draw 3 and lost 5 games.In other side Bad Aussee are team of the bottom of table.Badd Aussee in last game lost home from Lustenau 0-1.In last 5 games Bad Aussee draw 3 and lost 2 games.In away games Bad Aussee won 2 draw 3 and lost 8 games.In head 2 head games in this year Parndorf won both games.They won home 2-0 and away 2-3.Parndorf is fighting to stay in league and they need more those points Bad Aussee almost lost all chances to stay in elague and i see Parndorf wining in this game.

Shamrock Rovers - UCD Dublin	1	1.61	Shamrock after grate games in the begin of season when they where unbeten in 4 games they lost both two last games. First they lost home from Bohemians 0-1 then away from Cobh 2-0.At home Shamrock won 1 draw 1 and lost 1 game.In other side UCD in last game lost home from Drogheda 1-3.In 6 games they won 1 draw 1 and lost 4 games.The only win they made was away with Bray Wanderers 0-2.In away games they won 1 and lost 2.Chamrock have beter team then UCD also looking on tradition Shamrock is favorite on this game.I think we will see easy home win.

Celje - Inteblock	2	2.00	Celje are realy in bad form they made lost 4 last games in row.In last game they lost from Primorje 5-0.In last 5 games they lost 4 and won 1 they won only outsider Livar 1-5.At home games Celje won 4 draw 1 and lost 9 games.In other side Interblock is grate team and are showing grate results.In last game they lost from Nafta away 1-0 after 4 wins in row.In away games Interblock won 7 ddraw 1 and lost 6 games.In new season Interblock brought me alot of win and i think that they can win again this game.

Picks by Hunt3r:

Dordrecht vs Den Bosch	X2	1.32	Den Bosch is 3`rd place 4 points less than Waalwijk RKC and Volendam. Last round: 11.4.2008 Den Bosch -Telstar3:0 On the other hand Dordrecht is on 14 place with no worry!
Rkc Waalwijk vs Fortuna Sittard	1	1.20	If Waalwijk whants to promote they have to win games liek that. Volendam has a hard game with Emmen.
Blackburn vs Manchester United	under 2.5	1.87	I hate to put against Manchester because has a very very good team and in the last games they played very well but still Mancehster has 5 points more than 2 place Chelsea and with Blackburn at home is a hard match. I see under under 2.5
Caen vs Paris St Germain	2	2.60	Looking at current form, PSG is down.. but they have to win here to save themselve from relegation. 0-1 here is my call and 3 points to PSG
Uta Arad vs Cfr Cluj	2	1.35	Cfr have to win every games, this one is a easy task Steaua will have at Otelul home ground a slighter hard match than Cfr. The coach is very good with rotating players, they is no worry Cfr will win

Picks by Ledi17:

Heerenveen - Excelsior	1	1.35	Is the last match in Eredivise and Heerenven has the last chance to take a place in the playoffs who will determine who will play in Champions League or Uefa next season. They are in the 5th place and this is the last place who get into playoffs and they have to win to maintain this position.
Feyenoord - Roda JC	1	1.60	Feyenoord have 57 points and they have the same amount of points with Heerenven. Even thou they are 15 goals down from Heerenven they will win this match and will hope that Herenven will make a mistake. Roda is not playing for anything so i think Feyenoord will have a very easy match.
Aston Villa - Birmingham	1	1.65	Aston Villa are in the 7th place in Premier League. Only 5th and 6th place go to Uefa in Premier League and they are only 2 points behind 6th place which is hold by Portsmouth. They will hope that Portsmouth will make a mistake in this 4 matches. Aston Villa have a great form and they have scored 10 goals in their 2 last matches.
Fiorentina - Palermo	1	1.60	Fiorentina are in 4th place and they want to go to Champions League next year. They have Milan behind who is one of three best soccer teams in Italy and can't accept a 5th place which means in Uefa next year. They will not have to do any mistake because they know Milan are able to win all their 5 remaining matches.
Roma - Livorno	1	1.23	Roma are in 2nd place in Serie A and they are only 4 points behind Inter which are in 1st place. They hope that Inter will make a mistake in those 4 last matches. Now they are off the Champions Legue and they want only to win in Serie A. (Because Coppa Italia isn't a big consolation for this big team and what they have show in this season).
Hamilton - Clyde	1	1.40	Hamilton are in the 1st place in 1st Division in Scotland. If they win this match they will go in Premier Dvision and will be the 1st Division Champions. If they loose or draw this match they will have to deal with Dundee in their last match away from home and this will be very risky for them.
