Arsenal vs Tottenham Hotspur
12:30 pm, Saturday 18th November, Emirates Stadium.
Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs have started the season brightly by qualifying for the Champions League last-16, but sit eight points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City in the title race. They will be looking to continue their impressive away form and will be looking to Harry Kane and Dele Alli who were giving time to recover from injury during the international break to spearhead their attack. Christian Eriksen would be looking to add more goals to his tally having sent Denmark through to the World Cup with a sensational display which was capped with a hat-trick.
Arsenal is even further behind Spurs as Arsene Wenger’s men trail City by 12 points, sitting sixth after losing four of their opening 11 League games to put pressure on their long-serving manager. Arsenal will be counting on their impressive home record against Tottenham and will be hoping a shaky defence which has already conceded 16 goals in the league to hold-up a rampant Tottenham attack.
Football Betting Prediction.
A defeat for either side would seriously dent their title ambitions before another tricky festive fixture pile-up. Arsenal has not lost a game at home this season and head into this match with a point to improve but I don’t see them nullifying Tottenham’s attack.
Bet Tottenham to win and Both Teams to Score
Bayern Leverkusen vs RB Leipzig
2:30 pm, Saturday 18th November, Bay Arena.
Unbeaten on home turf in the Bundesliga this season, Leverkusen are starting to come good after a shaky start to the campaign. Currently, on a six-game undefeated streak in the league, they are scoring goals for fun averaging 2.1 goals per game. Attacking trio Leon Bailey, Kevin Volland and Lucas Alario will lead their attack and apart from Sven Bender who picked up an injury against Augsburg Heiko Herrlich’s has a full squad at his disposal.
Leipzig sits second on the table and will fancy their chances here having already picked up 3 away wins this term. Timo Werner will be looking to continue his impressive form and Ralph Hasenhüttl’s men will be boosted by the return of Willi Orban from suspension.
Football Betting Prediction.
Based on their impressive form and goal returns, Leverkusen head into this match as favourites and there is a possibility they will come out of this showdown victorious.
Bet Bayern Leverkusen to win and over 1.5
Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid
7:45 pm, Saturday 18th November, Wanda Metropolitan.
Atletico Madrid may not have lost in the league this season but they still look like a shadow of their former self. Scrapping victories and getting draws while putting in mediocre performances might just be enough to get you in the top 4 but will never be enough to hand you the La Liga Trophy with the form Barcelona and Valencia are in.
Back to Back loss against Girona and Tottenham may seem to have been redeemed with a convincing victory against Las Palmas and a victory at Wanda Metropolitan will help ease the pressure on Zinedine Zidane. Cristiano Ronaldo will be looking to end his La Liga goal drought and help Real Madrid get something out of this game.
Football Betting Prediction.
There is no clear favourite in this game, with both teams on 23 points a win will bring them closer to the summit of the table. Real Madrid has scored an average of 2.2 goals per away game and is bound to get a goal in this game
Bet Both Teams to Score and Over 2.5
Paris Saint-Germain vs Nantes
4:00 pm, Saturday 18th November, Parc des Princes.
PSG head into this clash as clear favourites 10 wins from 12 games, 39 goals scored and 8 goals conceded they are off to a flying start and are looking unstoppable. Neymar, Cavani and Mbappe will be looking to run riot on a Nantes defence that has been surprisingly impressive this season.
Nantes sit 5th on the table after picking up 7 wins from 12 games. Most of their wins came through narrow margins but they got 3 points nonetheless. They will be looking to cause an upset at Parc des Princes. They will sit back and look for opportunities to hit PSG on the counter-attack.
Football Betting Prediction.
PSG will emerge from this match unscathed and will be looking to their champions league match later in the week.
Bet PSG to win and No goal goal
Roma vs Lazio
5:00 pm, Saturday 18th November, Olimpico.
Roma started slowly but have picked up form in their last few games. With 4 wins from 5 games, they are only bound to get better with the return of their longtime absentees who have been sidelined due to injury. Dzeko will be looking to add to his tally and their defense will have to put in an impressive display to stop Lazio’s attack.
With 14 goals already this term Immobile will be looking forward to the challenge of scoring against a Roma side that has only conceded an average of 0.6 goals per game. Simone Inzaghi’s men will be counting on their attacking trio and will be looking not to ship in goals a task which has seemed difficult of late.
Football Betting Prediction.
Lazio will take an early lead in this showdown but Roma will battle through and emerge victorious.
Bayern Munich vs FC Augsburg
2:30 pm, Saturday 18th November, Allianz Arena.
The appointment of Heynckes has brought about a remarkable resurgence in their last seven competitive games for the Bundesliga champions. Centre-back Jerome Boateng is doubtful after missing Germany’s recent friendlies with a muscular complaint and Robert Lewandowski is struggling with a thigh problem but should recover in time for Saturday’s clash.
Augsburg, who have lost each of their last five meetings with Bayern, has proved to be one of the league’s most resilient teams this season and only two clubs have conceded fewer goals than their total of 11 thus far.
Football Betting Prediction.
Augsburg has conceded an average of a goal per game this season and head into this clash looking to faze a Bayern side that has averaged 2.5 goals per game.
Bet Bayern to Win and Over 2.5

Paulo Dybala and Gonzalo Higuaín amongst others have helped Juventus accumulate 35 goals from 12 games an average of 2.9 goals. A win at Luigi Ferraris could take them to the summit of the table depending on the result between Napoli and Ac Milan.
Football Betting Prediction.
The odds might favour Juventus but Sampdoria are bound to get something out of this game and will be looking to avoid their first home loss of the season.
Bet Sampdoria to Win/Draw and over 1.5
Leicester City vs Manchester City
3:00 pm, Saturday 18th November, King Power Stadium.
Manchester City travels to Leicester City on Saturday looking to maintain their record-breaking start to the Premier League season. Pep Guardiola’s boys have dropped just two points after 11 games, boasting 31 points and a plus 31 goal difference. Raheem Sterling still out with a back injury will be replaced by Silva on the right flank and there are still doubts about the fitness of Sergio Aguero after a complaint of dizziness during an International friendly against Nigeria.
The ship seems to have steadied since the appointment of Claude Puel but Leicester face a daunting test when they play hosts to premier league pacesetters Manchester City. Leicester City is sweating on the fitness of Vicente Iborra and Ben Chilwell but will be looking to inflict on Manchester City their first defeat of the season.
