Football bet

Weekly on Fridays, Gazeta observers - popular sports commentators will give their own predictions for matches of European football championships.

League prediction


The 15th round of the German Championship opens on Friday with the match of Mainz and Stuttgart. In a good way, “Stuttgart” has long been time to stop winning, but the team Armin Fe continues to encroach on leadership in the table. On the other hand, “Mainz” is the arch-most important of the outsiders of the season, the only club that has not scored 10 points. Under the circumstances, there is a good chance to “catch” the victory of “Mainz”. If such an outcome seems unlikely to you, you can put Mario Gomez on the goal. One of the top scorers of the championship in the last round did not score.

Good individual bet in the match, “Werder Bremen” - “Hertha”. Miroslav Klose has gained tremendous shape and is catching the leaders of the scorer race with giant leaps. Hertha’s defense is average, and Klose has every chance to score in this game. But putting on the “Bremen” is dangerous - next week the Bremen have the decisive match in the Champions League, which means that the Schaaf team will save energy.

Dortmund Borussia should beat Wolfsburg in the 15th round. After the heroic victory over the “Bremen”, the black and yellow could not come to their senses and the next two matches were very weak. “Wolfsburg” - a suitable opponent to start a new series. I suppose you can take a chance and bet that the “wolves” will not score - goals are generally given to them with great difficulty.

Sunday matches in the German championship are rarely successful, but in the 15th round it makes sense to put the “top”. There must be goals in the match, “Nuremberg” and “Schalke” - the patriots can bet on the ball Ivan Saenko. “Top” can be seen in another Sunday match, “Alemania” - “Eintracht”. Here you can count on master's success: Frankfurt on Thursday played in the UEFA Cup, and for sure the players will not have enough freshness.

Italian League. Tour forecast

Sunset on the Apennines, which we made last week, can be considered a warm-up. Minimal trends are caught - and that is bread. But it's time to try to earn a living and bread. As you hopefully managed to notice, we are not looking for easy ways and we are trying to choose coefficients fatter. For example, “Livorno” did not miss a single goal at home in the first six matches of the season! Why would suddenly occupy the third line in the table from the end of “Chievo” violate this tradition? A bet “Chievo” will not score “costs 2.4 - not bad, right? A little more modest, but also more reliable looks totul“ more than 2.5 ”in the match“ Messina ”-“ Sampdoria. ”A simple look at the standings is enough to understand that the Sicilians , and the Genoese this season prefer open football (the growing performance, by the way, is the same one that was noticed a week ago, then in relation to the Roman teams it’s a detail of this season). At Sampdoria, the sum of the goals scored and missed (40) is the level “Roma” and “Palermo”, that is, the first three-five. Genoese climb the rampage in all guest matches, including, remember, the game with Inter in Milan, while in the last five rounds Sampdoria suffered four defeats, slipped to the bottom of the table, which does not quite correspond to the level of the team Walter Novellino. “Messina” a little lower (36), but also above average - compare with deserted dryness “Empoli” (21), “Cagliari” (23) or “Milan” (24). In the last four home matches of “Messina” happened severe top ", and not Sampdoria" deal with the cessation of this gourmet. And for the top give 2.2!

And, of course, one can not help but risk in the match “Parma” - “Palermo”. This almost poetic poster promises a big profit to those who put on the hosts: 5.1 for a “clean” victory, 2.9 - “with zero”. The former co-leader, having lost two games in a row, including his neighbor “Inter”, and having passed also “Roma” in the table, and at the same time greatly spoiling his position in the UEFA Cup, is clearly in crisis, even if only in psychological . But how not to try to catch! This is primarily an appeal to the players of “Parma”. But to you too.
