Tip Preview:
Flamengo started well Libertadores with the team having picked up a point at home to River Plate and a victory away at Emelec. They will play with his best team today.
Orlando Berrío and Ederson are out.

Santa Fé is in very poor form and fired their coach due to poor results, they are without a victory in their last 5 games. For Libertadores the Colombians currently have 2 points after drawing with both Emelec and River.
Goalkeeper Leandro Castellanos remains sidelined through injury.

Even without the back of their fans, I think Flamengo are huge favourite and will win fairly comfortably.

Tip Preview:
Recife will have many problems this season. They lost first game against America, played very poorly without any game fluency.
Magrão and Rogério are out due to injury.

Botafogo started very will with a creditable draw against Palmeiras. I think they will have a quiet season.
Luiz Fernando is likely to be missing again due to injury.

I think these odds are wrong, great value here for visitors.

Tip Preview:
Schalke have won 7 of their last 8 matches (DFB Pokal). They are full of confidence after a deserved 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund last weekend. Home form is good as they managed 4 wins against Hoffenheim, Hertha Berlin, Freiburg and Borussia Dortmund.
Tedesco rested midfielders Bastian Oczipka and Max Meyer against Dortmund, but both are expected to return for this important semi-final.
Schalke will be without Nastatic (27/0 d) and Breel Embolo (22/3 f).

Frankfurt have only won 1 of their last 5 Bundesliga matches and dropped out of the Champions and Europa League places after a 4-1 defeat at Leverkusen on Saturday. Manager Niko Kovac will move to Bayern Munich in the summer and this caused negatively influence, they started playing really bad since the rumours start. Probably this is the main reason why Frankfurt have underperformed in the last games.
Frankfurt will be without Omar Mascarell (6/1 m), Ante Rebic (26/7 m) and Carlos Salcedo (23/0 d).

With Schalke in top form and Frankfurt going through crisis I think home win has a good value.

Tip Preview:
Las Palmas is practically doomed to Segunda Division next season. Last weekend they lost in the last minute against 9 man Levante. They have many defensive problems, conceded 2.03 goals per game on average this season in La Liga, the worst record in La Liga.

Real Sociedad won against Girona 5-0 at the Anoeta last weekend.
There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 11 of Real Sociedad's last 13 games (La Liga). Sociedad have the division’s 4th best goalscoring record, average 1.8 goals per game. Their last two games against bottom opposition they score 8 goals in total.

I expect an open game with at least 3 goals here.

Tip Preview:
Vitoria de Guimaraes have won their last 3 matches against Vitoria de Setubal in all competitions. No problems with the team so no changes are expected from the Vitoria de Guimaraes side that won last weekend against Rio Ave.
Probable Line-up: Miguel Silva - Konan, Henrique, Jubal, João Aurelio - Miranda, Mattheus, Heldon, Hurtado, Raphinha - Rafael Miranda

Vitoria de Setubal only won one away league match all season.
Patrick Oliveira (11/2 d) and João Teixeira (23/2 m), two important players, were injured this week and are out.
Probable Line-up: Cristiano - Nuno Pinto, Yohan Tavares, Nuno Reis, Arnold - Costinha, Bonilha, Semedo, Wallyson - Edinho, Andre Pereira

With Peseiro Vitoria de Guimarães is much better and I think they will win again at home.

Tip Preview:
Atletico are a very strong home side, they are unbeaten in 13 games with 8 wins and an impressive 9 clean sheets. A big reason for this success beyond the team quality is the fact that their Arena da Baixada home features an artificial turf.
There is no problem in terms of absences or suspensions for Atletico.

Newells have lost 5 of their last 6 games as visitors in the Argentine Superliga. Besides having financial problems at the club, Newells lost key players such as Maxi Rodriguez, Mauro Formica and Ignacio Scocco and their absences has certainly been felt on the pitch, they are now in 23rd place in the Argentine top flight.
Brian Sarmiento (18/4 m) is sidelined.

With Newells without a win away from home since the end of November I see great value here for the hosts.

Tip Preview:
Bayern have won their last 7 matches (UEFA Champions League). At home they are unbeaten all season, 17 wins and 2 draws of their 19 competitive games. Last weekend Bayern comfirmed themselves as Champions with a victory against Augsburg, the team can now concentrate fully on a Champions League.
Robert Lewandowski, Mats Hummels, Javi Martinez, Thiago, Thomas Muller and Franck Ribery were rested at the weekend and will return to the starting eleven today.
Arturo Vidal (39/6 m) and David Alaba (32/1 d) are doubts, Manuel Neuer (4/0 g) and Kingsley Coman (32/7 m) are out for this match.

Sevilla without a victory in their last four matches and have lost three of those, go to Germany with a 4-0 defeat away to Celta Vigo on Saturday. Éver Banega is available again after missing the first leg through suspension. Simon Kjaer (26/2 d), Gabriel Mercado (31/0 d) and Sébastien Corchia (18/0 d) are in doubtful. Miguel Layun (27/3 d) is ineligible to play for Sevilla.

Due to the difference in quality I expect a comfortable win for the hosts.

Tip Preview:
Big crisis in Sporting. The president suspended some players.

Tip Preview:
Arsenal's form has been impressive, they are undefeated in 21 of their last 23 home matches (Premier League). At home they've lost just two of their last 23 league matches.
Mkhitaryan (7/1 m) is a doubt after being forced off in midweek. David Ospina (2/0 g) and Santi Cazorla (0/0 m) are both out too.
Probable Line-up: Cech; Kolasinac, Chambers, Mustafi, Bellerin; Ramsey, Elneny, Ozil, Wilshere, Welbeck; Aubameyang

Southampton have failed to win 17 of their last 18 matches and failed to score in their last 3 matches (Premier League).
No missing players.
Probable Line-up: McCarthy; Soares, Stephens, Hoedt, Bertrand; Lemina, Romeu, Tadic, Davis, Redmond; Austin

I can be expected that Gunners maintain that good form at home against Southampton and I hope another victory for the hosts.

Tip Preview:
Vitoria Setubal are on a very positive run of form, winning 4 of their last 8 matches.
Patrick Oliveira (11/2 d) and João Teixeira (23/2 m) cannot face off against Benfica due to the terms in their loan agreements.

Benfica were jump in to top spot in the Primeira Liga last weekend, big big motivation. They have won their last 8 matches and are undefeated in 24 of their last 25 matches against Vitoria de Setubal.
Only Filip Krovinovic (13/1 m) is out and Eduardo Salvio (20/7 m) is in doubtful. No changes are expected from Benfica this weekend.

Benfica have the best away record in the top flight and I think their brilliant form will continue this weekend with another win.

Tip Preview:
RB Leipzig are having a great run, they are unbeaten in six matches and have played with strong teams Zenit, Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich in that time.
Halstenberg (23/2 d), Ilsanker (22/0 d) and Orban (33/4 d) are out.
Probable Line-up: Gulacsi; Laimer, Upamecano, Konate, Bernardo; Sabitzer, Keita, Forsberg, Bruma; Augustin, Werner

Marseille have only won one of five away games in the Europa League this season.
Captain and goalkeeper Steve Mandanda (37/0 g) was injured in the last game and may not play again this season, while centre-back Adil Rami (43/2 d) did likewise later in the game with a calf problem, and also misses out, two big absences for the defense. Florian Thauvin (41/17 m) is in doubtful after missing the weekend game with a hamstring problem picked up while on international duty with France.
Probable Line-up: Pele; Sarr, Rolando, Sertic, Amavi; Luiz Gustavo, Zambo Anguissa, Ocampos, Sanson, Payet; Mitroglou

With Marseille without two key players in the defense and Leipzig in a very good run I predict a victory for the hosts.

Tip Preview:
Barcelona will be strong favourites to make it through to the Champions League Semi Final. They are undefeated in their last 9 matches (UEFA Champions League). At home, they are unbeaten this season.
Messi is the main man for the hosts, he is in very good shape and fresh, he didn't play for National team and was on the bench last match against Sevilla.
Lucas Digne (15/1 d) and Sergi Samper (5/0 m) are injury doubts for the home side, while Philippe Coutinho (13/3 m) is ineligible.

Roma will not forget the last game against Barcelona two seasons ago at the Camp Nou when got beaten by 6-1 by the Catalans. Away from home the Italians have only won 4 of their last 12 competitive matches.
Rick Karsdorp (1/0 d) remains on the sidelines for Roma. Radja Nainggolan (33/3 m) is also expected to miss out after being forced off with injury at the weekend and it is a big blow.

I expect a dominant Barcelona and a comfortable win for the home team.

Tip Preview:
Arouca in great form and in the fight to ascend to the first division. Only one defeat in the last 14 games.
Guimarães B play for nothing, not big motivation.

Great value for the hosts.

Tip Preview:
Stuttgart are in fantastic form, won 5 of their last 6 matches (Bundesliga) and won their last 3 home matches against Hamburg in all competitions. They are the third-best home team in the Bundesliga, 8 wins in 13 games played, only Bayern and Leipzig have a better home record.
Andreas Beck (21/1 d) is unavailable after picking up his fifth booking of the campaign. Long term absences Carlos Mane (0/0 f) and Matthias Zimmermann (2/0 d) are also out.

Hamburg in really bad situation. They are without a victory in the last 14 games and have lost in 10 of their 13 away games.
Mergim Mavraj (17/0 d) and Walace (18/1 m) are training with the club's U21s after new manager Christian Titz suspended both from the first-team. Nicolai Müller (1/1 m), Diekmeier (21/0 d), Papadopoulos (24/1 d), Ekdal (13/0 m), Salihovic (9/1 m), Schipplock (10/0 f) and Wood (20/1 f) are also out.

Stuttgart are in much better form and I believe in another victory for them.

Tip Preview:
Benfica are undefeated in their last 36 home matches (Liga NOS) and won their last 8 matches against Vitoria de Guimaraes in all competitions.
They are in amazing form, big motivation for a top spot in the league.
Benfica without Krovinovic (13/1 m), Salvio (19/7 m) and Ruben Dias (17/3 d).

Vitoria de Guimaraes have lost their last 7 away matches (Liga NOS).
Big problems in defense, they are really bad, second worst team in the league with 49 goals conceded in 27 games.
Important players are out, Douglas (19/0 first goalkeeper), Celis (15/0 m), Hurtado (21/8 f) and Victor Garcia (13/0 m).

I expect another three points to Benfica with a confortable win, Zivkovic, Cervi, Rafa and Jonas will destroy Guimaraes defense.

Tip Preview:
In Germany Emre Can, Thomas Muller and Mesut Ozil have returned to their clubs due to minor injury concerns. Joachim Low will rotate his squad following the 1-1 draw with Spain and has confirmed Marvin Plattenhardt and Ilkay Gündogan will play. Marc-André ter Stegen sidelined and Low has confirmed Kevin Trapp and Bernd Leno will play 45 minutes each.
Probable lineup: Trapp; Plattenhardt, Sule, Boateng, Kimmich; Gundogan, Kroos, Sané, Goretzka, Draxler; Wagner;

Brazil plays well their match against Russia a few days ago. Tite is unlikely to make as many changes as the hosts on Tuesday, though he may try to solidify the midfield. Despite the absence of Neymar they look likely to name a line-up closer to that which will start in the summer.
Problable lineup: Alisson; Dani Alves, Thiago Silva, Miranda, Marcelo; Fernandinho, Casemiro, Paulinho; Willian, Coutinho, Jesus;

I think Brazil draw no bet is an excellent value bet.

Tip Preview:
Feirense in a very bad shape and a lot of key players out.
Sony, Briseno, Tiago Silva and Farías are out.

Tip Preview:
Eintracht Frankfurt have won their last 4 home matches (Bundesliga) and won their last 3 home matches against Mainz in all competitions.
It's been an incredible season for Frankfurt, the club sits in an impressive 5th place and they are now just 4 points off second-placed FC Schalke 04.
Last week they conceded a goal in the last seconds and lost 3-2 against Borrussia Dortmund. they played well but were unlucky.
No injuries or suspensions problems in the team.
Probable lineup: Hrádecky; Salcedo, Hasebe, Abraham; Chandler, Boateng, Fernandes, Wolf; Guzmán, Haller, Rebic;

Mainz have failed to win 18 of their last 19 away matches (Bundesliga). They have only won one game on the road all season.
Last week they lost at home 1-0 against Schalke. Big pressure for points.
Probable lineup: Muller; Bell, Gbamin, Diallo; Donati, Serdar, Jong, Latza, Brosinski; Muto, Quaison;

Great value for a home win.

Tip Preview:
Sporting b in very bad shape and still without some players who traveled with first team for the Europa League game in Poland.
Penafiel in great form and in the fight to ascend to the first division.
Great value for visitors.

Tip Preview:
Ath Bilbao will have to face an very hard game against Olympique Marseille on thursday and they don't have the same roster as Barça. Suarez is out but Barcelona has good alternatives.
I think this is a good early bet and the odds will start dropping certainly.
