Football Predictions Friday
Bayern Munich v Augsburg
Home Team Total Goals Over/Under - Over (3.5)
Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich return after the international break and welcome Augsburg to the Allianz Arena on Friday evening. – Check out our Bundesliga odds.
Just before the international break, Vincent Kompany’s side extended their lead at the top of the Bundesliga to five points as they look to claim their league title back from Bayer Leverkusen. The Bavarians remain unbeaten in the league after their first ten games, they’re also on a five-game unbeaten run across all competitions following their humiliating defeat away to Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League. Bayern Munich are usually a solid outfit on home soil, their last defeat here came against Borussia Dortmund back in March, they’re unbeaten in their last eleven home games since.
Augsburg finished last season in eleventh place and missed out on a European spot by just tree points, made even more frustrating by the fact they lost all of their last five games. Jess Thorup will be hoping his side can put together a similar season during this campaign and hopefully finish in those European places, depending on how many get awarded to the Bundesliga. Despite a fairly mediocre start, Fuggerstädter have put together a four game unbeaten run in competitive games across all competitions but they are up against it in this one, having last won away to Bayern Munich back in 2015.
This fixture tends to offer up goals, the last four meetings have produced at least four goals, with Bayern Munich scoring at least three in all of those, we could be in for something similar on Friday evening.
To Be Relegated - FC Augsburg
Augsburg are just four points clear of the relegation zone after the first ten league games, could they be fighting relegation come May or will they be challenging the top eight?
Paris Saint-Germain v Toulouse
Match Result and Both Teams To Score - Paris Saint-Germain and Yes
Paris Saint-Germain will start their very important week on Friday evening with the visit of Toulouse in this Ligue 1 clash. – Check out our latest Ligue 1 odds.
PSG return from the international break with a Friday night fixture on home soil, although Luis Enrique’s side could have one eye on their UEFA Champions League clash away to Bayern Munich on Tuesday night, the importance of that fixture could result in Enrique resting a few players in this one, especially given they’ve managed to give themselves a six-point gap to Monaco at the top. The Parisians have picked up just four points in the UCL league phase so far, with four games to go we’re really in the must win stage, but PSG have a job to do here first and especially after Toulouse were the last side to beat Paris Saint-Germain in the league at the Parc des Princes.
Toulouse will travel to the French capital full of confidence following three wins from their last three Ligue 1 games, two of which came on the road. Those nine points have moved Carles Martínez Novell’s side up to tenth and will be hoping to make it three wins on the bounce away from home, Les Violets have now won seven of their last eleven competitive fixtures on their travels.
PSG are the heavy betting favourites for this one and that doesn’t really surprise me given the way they’ve started in the league, as long as Luis Enrique doesn’t let his side get ahead of themselves and focus on next week’s UCL action, they should get a win in this one.
To Finish In Top 4 - Toulouse
It’s very early days but Toulouse are suddenly just four points off the top four following their recent run of form.
Football Predictions Saturday
Leicester City v Chelsea
Correct Score - 1:3
After three away games on the bounce, Leicester City return to the King Power Stadium on Saturday to face Chelsea in the Premier League. – Check out our Premier League odds.
The international break probably came at the right time for Steve Cooper and Leicester with the Foxes winless in their last four games across all competitions, facing defeat in three of those. Following back-to-back victories in October, Leicester City had given themselves a bit of breathing space from those relegation places but now find themselves just three points above the relegation zone prior to the visit of Chelsea, I’m sure the foxes will just be looking to avoid defeat in this one.
Enzo Maresca will return to Leicester and it’ll be interesting to see the reaction he gets from those fans that used to sing his name on a weekend, it should be a good one given the Italian secured promotion with the Foxes. Of course, he’ll be hoping it’s a successful visit as his Chelsea side look to continue their progression this season with an aim to finish in the top four, something they’ve started strongly with as the Blues occupy third in the Premier League ahead of this fixture. They have played out two stalemates in their last two league outings, although both games were tough on paper, a trip to Old Trafford before a visit from Arsenal, it’s been a solid start for the Blues.
Chelsea have enjoyed their last two visits to this ground, scoring three on both occasions and taking home three points, I think we could see the Blues with another victory in this one. Here you can find all our latest Premier League predictions.
To Finish In Top 4 - Chelsea
Chelsea have impressed this season and will be hoping to finish in the top four in Enzo Maresca’s first year in charge.
Borussia Dortmund v Freiburg
Match Result and Both Teams To Score - Borussia Dortmund and Yes
Borussia Dortmund will take on Freiburg at the Signal Iduna Park on Saturday afternoon in this Bundesliga fixture. – Check out our Bundesliga odds.
With back-to-back victories against RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga and Sturm Graz in the UEFA Champions League, the pressure looked to had eased off Dortmund boss Nuri Sahin but his side let him down just before the international break. Emre Can didn’t help the cause after seeing red with just twenty-seven minutes played against Mainz, Dortmund fell to a 3-1 defeat and picked up their fourth league loss in just ten games, leaving the Prussians in seventh place and the pressure back on Sahin.
Freiburg enter this fixture on Saturday currently occupying fifth place in the Bundesliga after a strong start from Julian Schuster’s side. Breisgau Brazilians have lost just one of their last six competitive games, although played out two goalless draws in their last two fixtures. If Freiburg are to pick up three points in this one, they’ll have to win here in a competitive game for the first time since 2001, a big ask.
I think we’ll see Borussia Dortmund bounce back in this one, their head-to-head record against Freiburg is a good one on home soil, having won fifteen of their last sixteen meetings.
To Finish In Top 4 - Borussia Dortmund
Nuri Sahin will be hoping he’ll get a proper chance in charge if Borussia Dortmund and will be looking to lead his side into the top four.
