Valladolid - Recreativo Huelva	1	1.85	Valladolid are currently in 13th position while they have take 6 points from 6 matches played. Last match for Valladolid was that lost against Valencia (0-1) but they have good record at home. They have won two matches, one from them with Atletico Madrid and they have lost only with Valencia that in this season is unstopable. Recreativo Huelva are currently in 18th position while they have take only 4 points from 6 matches played. Last match was that lost against Malaga (4-0) in front of their fans. They have won only the first match and than have 5 matches in a row without win. I expekt that Recreativo Huelva will continue in this way of play and Valladolid should profit from this situation to take 3 points that will help them to rise the position.
Nec Nijmegen - Vitesse	1	1.65	Nec Nijmegen are currently in 7th position while they have take 8 points from 5 matches played. Nec Nijmegen have show some good quality at home matches while even that is start of the season they have done great matches. Vitesse are currently in 16 position while they have take only 2 points from 5 matches played. They havent done anything to remember this new season while in away matches they havent take any points. I expekt them to do the same again and Nec Nijmegen will show some good potential to win this match.
Turku PS - KooTeePee	1/1 HT/FT	1.50	Turku PS are currently in 6th position while they have take 36 points from 24 matches played. Last match for TPS was the lost against Helsinki (2-1) away. KooTeePee are currently in 14th position or better in the last position while they have take only 8 points from 24 matches played. They havent done nothing this season and all what their fans can remember from this team is the only win that they have take. I believe that KooTeePee cant stop Turku PS to forgoet last match and to enjoy this match with some goals.
Roda - Heerenveen	Over 2.5	1.60	Roda are currently in 15th position while they have take only 2 points from 5 matches played. Heerenveen are currently in 4th position while they have take 10 points from 5 matches played. Last match for Heerenveen was that incredible win against Ajax at home (5-2). It was a match that we have seen to much goals and to much chances to score. I think that this match will go with more than 3 goals but i prefer to not risk and will take that just with Over 2.5.
Werder Bremen - Borussia Dortmund	Over 2,5	1.40	Werder Bremen are currently in 7th position while they have take 11 points from 7 matches played. Last match for Werder Bremen was that lost against Stuttgart (4-1) away. Borussia Dortmund are currently in 6th position while they have take 12 points from 7 matches played. I believe that we will se a tight match and both teams plays like "open match". Something good at statistic is that Werder Bremen from 7 matches that have played 6 from those matches was with more than 2 goals, only one match was with two goals. I expekt the same thing to happen in this match.
Teplice - Mlada Boleslav	Under 2,5	1.60	Teplice are currently in 8th position while they have take 12 points from 9 matches played. Last match for Teplice was that lost against Bohemians (1-0) away. Something interested is that all last 5 matches that Teplice have played was under 2.5. Mlada Boleslav are currently in 2nd position while they have take 20 points from 9 matches played. I believe and imagine that both teams will play in this match with the way that Teplice play, defending all the time and try to not concede any goal.

Xazar7a (Hristo)

Venlo - Telstar	1		Venlo are very motivated to get back in Eredivisie and proof that with good games. They have only one loss this season and are ready for their next opponent. For their happiness this is Telstar, which is not in very good for, i can say even very bad form. They have only one win and their points are mainly from the draws they made. I expect here strong home play and win.
AGOVV - Zwolle	1		This is maybe one of the hardest matches to predict in this round. AGOVV are not in very good form, but on the other side their last matches was with strong opponents. But Zwolle don't look like them. For me they are mediocre team which sometimes made good games, but sometimes play awful. AGOOV is not a team for underestimating. So I think here we can try home win.
Eindhoven - Emmen	Over 2,5 Goals		One match between two teams which are neighbours in the standings. I don't expect to be high-quality match. But both teams need some points so i think they will give a lot from them to grab the points. And i think this leads to our bet - over 2.5 goals.
Omniworld - Den Bosch	2		Omniworld is in the bottom of the table and will look to improve it's performances. Den Bosch is on good place and will rely on good result in this match to keep it. The home team go into this match after 2 losses in the last matches, which were away. Den bosch on the other side go to this stadium after 5-0 over Emmen at home. So the question here is if Den bosch will repeat their goo match and will win, I think this boys can do this . Away win here.
Den haag - Volendam	1		This is a match of a two teams which played and qualified last season in Jupiler league. But for now Den Haag play comparatively good, but Volenam is on the botom with no points and no wins. It looks like their situation is very bad and hard, but with every loss the morale gets low. Den Haag will be at home in this match, and that is why i will go for home win, the home support is very important in Holland. It's time for Volendam to win matches but maybe in their next home match. Home win here.
Galway - Bray	1		Galway look to have got their play better and made some good results in last time. On the other side Bray beaten Derry in the last match. Galway are in the bottom and showed that they may survive and stay in Eircom, but this is the one of the decisive matches. I will go for home win here, because Bray will be not very motivated in this match and Galway will give it's all to grab the points.
Boro - Chelsea	2		In this kind of match I usually watch interesting football because teams like Boro make some decided matches already, undecided. it' will be hard match for Chelsea but they are maybe the strongest team at the moment in P-Ship. Boro will play defensively and this will be a hurdle for the lions but i think Chelsea will manage to grab all the points and to keep it's place on the top of the table.
Arsenal - Everton	1		This will be one very interesting match. Arsenal is as usual very strong at home and still unbeaten. But on the other side Everton looks to play better away, but it was against very weak opponents. While Arsenal is not opponent of this time, it's young players have very good skills and i expect they will win this home match and will start the chase for the first place.
Liverpool - Wigan	1		Liverpool is unbeaten from 30 april 2008. And this looks to be one good season for them. At Saturday they face Wigan which play not bad but and no the best. Torres is in very good form and i expect from him one good performance. Here home win.
Werder - Dortmund	both teams to score		Werder still dont have loss at home while Dortmund have one away. They lay in the table one over other and this makes this match very interesting. i expect attacking play and both teams to score here.

Middlesbro v Chelsea	2		Away win. In last game Middlesbro put an end to their foir successive losses streak when they won away at Wigan by the minimum 1-0 score. But this Saturday they are hosting unbeaten leaders Chelsea (5-2-0) who have not conceded a goal in last four games (WWDW). Chelsea will look forward to stay unbeaten and put some distance between them and immediate follower Liverpool. Away win.
Arsenal v Everton	1		WinArsenal (4-1-2) are struggling to move higher up than their fourth seat but have been leapfrogged by Hull City after their defeat by the latter at the Emirates. They are unbeaten in five of last six (DWWLWD) and should overcome rather poor Everton ( 2-2-3) who are winless in six (DDLLLD). Home win
Aston Villa v Portsmouth	1		Aston Villa are winless in three of last four (LWDL) but the two losses were in the Cup and away at leaders Chelsea in last league game. They drew in UEFA Cup but won on good Sunderland. Portsmouth are in progress and shoe WDW in last three after two successive losses. At home Aston Villa are very good and can have the edge here over a Portsmouth team that won on the last two teams of the league, poor Tottenham and Stoke. Home win.
Bolton v Blackburn	2		After three successive wins, in-form Blackburn lost last game against no less than very good Man U while Bolton managed a win at West Ham after five winless games (LDLLLW). Bolton will show resistance but Blackburn should make it there. Away Win.
Fulham v Sunderland	X2		Fulham lost last four in succession but three of these losses were in away games and by 1-0 only. One was loss was at home to West Ham. Sunderland show LDWLD) winning on penalties on low division Northampton in the cup.Sunderland played a little better but are vulnerable at the Cottage. I see a drawe here or a short away win. Draw/Away
Scunthorpe v Crewe	1		Scunthorpe (6-1-2) are sitting in second seat at three points from leaders Leicester (7-1-1). They are unbeaten in six games (WWWWDW) winning five and drawing 2-2 at Leyton Orient. They scored 4-1 away at Brighton and in five subsequent games scored two in each. They should have a rather easy game when hosting very poor and declining third-bottom Crewe (2-1-6). Crewe are winless in last five (LLDLL). Home win.
Liverpool v Wigan	1X		Unbeaten Liverpool (5-2-0) and at par in points with leaders Chelsea, might suffer a big blow by the absence of both Torres and Babel, injured in the International games in mid-week. But I believe they can have good replacements to do well against Wigan (2-2-3) who lost at home to mid-table Middlesbro in last game after five unbeaten games (WDDWWL) against lower opposition. Home win / Draw
Manchester United v West Brom	1		Man U have picked back their good shape and pace and are now on four wins in a row in which they’ve scored at least two in each for a total of 10 goals against one. They’ve scored eight goals without conceding in last three (2-0, 3-0, 2-0) of which an away 3-0 at Aalborg in the UEFA Champions League two games ago. West Brom travel badly and are vulnerable at this visit at Old Trafford. Home win
Hull City v West Ham	1		Promoted Hull City (4-2-1) are doing very well including a 2-1 win at the Emirates on Arsenal two games ago. They are now in third seat after the two unbeaten teams Chelsea and Liverpool and at three points from them. They should be able to keep their unbeaten run (WDWW) when hosting West Ham (4-0-3) who have been on ups and downs ( WLWLWL) in last six losing against rather poor teams away at WBA and Watford in Cup and at home to poor Bolton by 3-1 in last game. Home Win
Stoke v Tottenham	X		Second-bottom Stoke (1-1-5) are hosting rock-bottom and winless Spurs (0-2-5). From last six games (WDWLDL) Spurs managed four recent good performances but in the league they could only finished goalless at home against Wigan. The other good performances were all in other cup games, win on Wisla Krakow in the CL, away win at affected Newcastle in Carling Cup and a draw away at Wisla Krakow in the second leg of the CL game. They lost to Portsmouth and very good Hull in the other two league games. Stoke lost four of last six (LLDWLL) drawing at Liverpool (0-0) and winning on penalties on Reading in the cup. They lost lst two game against leaders Chelsea and Portsmouth. Spurs will look for the win against a considered weak team but Stoke met high opposition. A draw is possible here. I take the Draw.
Newcastle v Manchester City	2		Third bottom Newcastle (1-2-4) are winless in last six with five losses followed by a 2-2 away draw in last game at 15th place and weak Everton (2-2-3). They’ve conceded at least two in each of last six games. City have made many valued recruitment but these have not yet paid off as they are (3-0-4). They won only one from last four (LLWL) and the win was in the UEFA Cup on Omonia. They lost on penalty at Brighton in Carling Cup. In league they lost to improved Wigan and unbeaten Liverpool. They should do well here at Newcastle more so they have been high scorers with a goal tally of (18-12). They possess the best attack and scored five more than second best Arsenal I see City winning here. Away win.

Omniworld - Den Bosch	2		Den Bosch is too strong and they are very much motivated after they defeated Emmen 5:0 at home last friday. Omniworld is a medium type of team, they dont fight, thet dont struggle and dont even try to get the top of league. So, these type of teams ususally lose their home/away games to leaders. Away win.
Go Ahead Eagles - Rosendaal	Over 2,5		In these two attackers H2H we can see that home advantag does not matter, they just play open game and score a lot. Rosendaal is weak on road, but they score eventhough they lose. Over 2.5
Haarlem - Excelsior	2		Poor poor Haarlem. They are in losing streak. Just cant win. Maybe because their schedule is so unlucky for them, since they have been playing with strongest leaders of league. Waalweyk, Den Bosch, Venlo... and then AGOVV and Cambuur. And i am sure Excelsior is not going to miss any point, because Waalweyk is about to catch them up. Away win.
Reims - Brest	Under 2,5		Two teams that facing crisis. Reims cant win. Brest cant even draw. H2H is horrible, but Reims looks a little better. Still, good pick seems to be Under 2.5
Metz - Bastia	1		Metz is strong team at home. They control the whole game. They missed some points in recent games, but only one mistaken loss at home is a good record. Bastia is on 11th place, they are comfortable, can efford to lose away games, especially to Metz. Home win.
Inverness - Celtic	2		For me in Scotland there are only 2 teams, Glazgow Raners and Celtic, rest of them are just for show. So, away win.
Kalmar - Goteborg	1		MU and Chelsea of Sweden. They almost play following the strict principles. Exchanging points on home games. And sharing the cup games. So, supercup goes to Kalmar, and cup goes to Goteborg. Goteborg won 3:2 on their last game (not cups) and now Kalmar must win, they are strong and do not lose at home,discluding 1:2 to Feyenord in UEFA. Home advantage and principles. Home win.
Malaga - Getafe	X2		Strange odds for Getafe after what they showed us in the beginning of this year. Malaga is not strong enough and Getafe has lost only once. And that was Atletiko M ! We may take AH Getafe 0:0, but on double chance x2 odd is @1.55 which is good. Gtafe not to lose.
Hertha - Stutgart	Over 2,5		We've been seeing a lots of goal in Bundesliga. Both teams are good, attack a lot, conceide and score a lot. For a favorite i see Away team to win here, but Over 2.5 is safer bet. Over 2.5
Wolfsburg - Arminia	Over 2,5		H2H is strange and its hard to predict the winner, but again, bboth teams know how to score and i make a shortcut with just Over 2.5
Dender - Genk	2		In last season Genk got poor and did not play good. But they started up this season nicely, and now flying up confidently. At the moment they are on 5th place, with 13 points. on road 6 goals scored and 5 conceided. Home team is on 16th place with 6 points. Just one win at home, goal difference -1. Away win.
Wolverhampton - Coventry	1		After winning streak Wolves lost their last two games. And defenetely defected their position on table. They must take an advantage of home ground and take care of their reputation in front of their fans. By getting three points they will at least keep the distance from enemy Reading. Wolves 22 pts. Reading 20 pts. Home win.
Preston - Reding	2 (AH)		Reading is in a good form. They are going up like a rocket. Preston is not showing anything special. Preston at home, and Reading on road - goal dfference is almost same. Reading wants to et 3 points, Preston is not strong enough to keep them all. Away win AH 0:0

Arsenal v Everton	1		Arsenal is now 4 points after the leader in the EPL and their ambitions in the begining of the league were as always vey high. However for now we cant say Arsenal will meet their expectations but to do so they need to increase their performance. Everton away from home is a decent team and hasnt been defeated so far and Arsenal should be very cautios with that. The game for the hosts will miss Gallas (hamstring), Sagna (knee) and Bendtner (ankle) which Wenger termed as heavy loss. Back from injury will most probably be Robin van Persie, Johan Djourou, Cesc Fabregas. I dont think it will be an easy game for Arsenal but expect them to win, or at least this is what they have to do if they dont want to lose sight of the leaders.
Man Utd v West Brom	1 (AH)		In this game both teams are on a winning streak of 2 wins in a row and both teams are very optimistics about it. However, the attacking power of the hosts is more likely to cause problems than the one of the visitors. Some of the leaders of the team - Ronaldo and Berbatov didnt impressed in their last games for their countries. Portugal and Bulgaria failed their games and all expect them now to explode against WBA and starts winning games for their teams again. I think there is nothing WBA can put against the champions of Europe and expect this to be a comfortable home win.
Atletico Madrid v Real Madrid	Both to score		In this game the 2 grands of Madrid will meet in a game where nothing can be predicted. As always i fancy Real to win but its just a fan support - no arguments. So the better pick here i think is Both to score. As every game between these teams i expect it to be an open game with lots of attack and goal opportunities. Both teams know how to score to each other and i think it will be high scoring game. The game for Real will most probably miss Guti and Roben. And back from injuries are Gago and Diara.
Athletic Bilbao v Barcelona	2		Barcelona is now on a fascinating serie of 4x wins and 5x no loss with a total goal difference of 18:6. I think the visitors in this game will do their best not to stop this serie and will look forwoard to winning their next game. Moreover, they are 4 points behind the leaders and should not make any mistakes to loss points now. Bilbao lost their last 2 games and are very unstable as a whole. At home they have 1 win and 2 loses. I dont think they will be able to stand against Barca and this should turn into an easy away win.
Roma v Inter Milan	X2		Last season Roma was one of the dominating teams in the league and i cant find any reason why their performance dropped so much this season. Inter on the other hand is fighting agains for the first place in the league but for now they have more rivals than last season. Last game for Inter was very hard and they barely got a win against Bologna. Roma on the other hand lost to Siena in a game that could go either way. At home Roma havent been defeeated since the start of the season. According to team news there are no serious injury problems in both teams and they will go for this game with full strength. I dont think it will be an easy game for the visitors but at least expect them not to lose it.
Karlsruher v Bayern Munich	1X		Bayern Munich is in a crysis right now - this has been comfermed by almost all in the team. In the last 3 games Bayern got 2 loses and 1 draw. The most dramatic was the draw 3:3 in the last game against Bochum. Karlsruher on the other hand is on a 2x wins serie and will try to increase it. Both teams have no serious iinjuries according to team news and i expcet this to be an open game with lots of chances to score. Its just the moral in Bayern is not that high and this may turn bad for them. I think this may go either way but in the end i think it will be a Karlsruher game.
