Everton vs QPR – Preview and betting tips
Goodison Park will host the last game of the 16th fixture in Barclays Premier League, today from 20:00. To be more precise, Everton will face the new-promoted Queens Park Rangers and the toffees are starting in pole-position at bookmakers.
Everton have not impressed so far this season and after 15 games played they are in the bottom half of the table, on the 13th position more exactly. Everton won only 18 points out of 45 and if they will continue this way it is very probably to fail to qualify for Europa League again. The Blues have a 24-23 goal difference, the attack being their strongest point. Stones and Atsu are injured, while Barry is suspended.
Queens Park Rangers ticked two victories in the last three fixtures, but even so they are under the red line, with 14 points and a 16-27 goal difference. There is no other team will a worst defence right now in Premier League. The londoners will go over the relegation zone if they will manage to get a point at Goodison Park.
Everton vs QPR probable lineup:
Everton (4-2-3-1): Howard – Coleman, Distin, Jagielka, Baines – McCarthy, Besic – McGeady, Barkley, Mirallas – Lukaku.
QPR (4-4-1-1): Green – Onuoha, Caulker, Dunne, Traore – Vargas, Barton, Henry, Fer – Kranjcar – Zamora.
Prediction: 1 @ 1.45
Bwin offers the best odds for this bet right now. We expect Everton to confirm their superiority against QPR, a new-promoted team as we said. They won the last two home games against QPR, 2-0 in 2013 and 4-0 this year in FA Cup.

Standard Liege vs Club Brugge – Preview and betting tips
The most interesting and at the same time the most balanced game of the 19th fixture in Belgium Jupiler League will take place Sunday at 13:30, UK Time, and will put face to face Standard Liege and Club Brugge.
Standard Liege have not impressed so far this season after last edition they were very close to win the title. With 27 points won in 18 games, Standard are only on the 7th place in Belgium and their goal difference is an unimpressive one too, 29-28. The hosts are on the 15th place in Belgium if we talk only about home matches, with eight points won out of 24.
Club Brugge are coming after a good run and they are the main favorites to win the title this season. The guests are leading the table, with 35 points in their account and the best goal difference in the league, 41-19. The away side has four more points than the second place right now. If we talk about away matches, Club Brugge recorded three wins, five dras and only a defeat.
We already had four meetings between these two sides in 2014. Club Brugge won three of them, two at home and one here, while another match ended with a goalless draw.
Prediction: X2 @ 1.53
As we said, Club Brugge seem to be the best team in Belgium this campaign, while Standard Liege struggled when they played in front of their own fans. More than that, they are without victory in four meetings with Brugge this year.

Sunderland vs West Ham – Preview and betting tips
Sunderland and West Ham United will be face to face today from 15:00 in one of the most balanced games of this round in Premier League, at least at the odds. It is hard to say which team has the first chance if we talk about betting, but if we look at their numbers, then the londoners are in pole-position.
The Black Cats are coming after five fixtures without victory, ticking four draws and one defeat. Sunderland have 15 points and a 13-23 goal difference and they managed to win only two games this campaign in Premier League, being “the champions” of draws, with no fewer than nine games ended with this kind of result.
West Ham impressed this season and they are still fighting for a Champions League place. Big Sam and his players are on the 4th position right now, with 27 points, only one behind the podium, four ahead Arsenal and six ahead Liverpool. The hummers have a good goal difference as well, with 26 goals scored and 18 conceded. Sakho and Carroll are announced in the attacking line.
Sunderland vs West Ham probable lineups:
Sunderland (4-1-4-1): Pantilimon – Vergini, O’Shea, Brown, Reveillere – Cattermole – Johnson, Larsson, Rodwell, Wickham – Fletcher.
West Ham (4-3-1-2): Adrian – Jenkinson, Tomkins, Reid, Cresswell – Downing, Song, Kouyate – Nolan – Carroll, Sakho.
Prediction: X2 @ 1.42
Sunderland are very strong in front of their own fans, but West Ham are in an excellent form this season and we expect them to win at least one point today against an out of form team.

Hoffenheim vs Frankfurt – Preview and betting tips
Hoffenheim and Frankfurt will be face to face in the opening game of the Bundesliga 15th fixture. The game is scheduled today from 19:30, UK Time, and it is a 1X2 one, anything being possible after what we saw in the past few weeks.
Hoffenheim had an impressive start of the season, without defeat in the first nine fixtures. After that, they ticked a victory and four defeats, being in a very bad form right now. The home team is on the 8th place in Bundesliga, with 20 points and a 21-22 goal difference. When it comes about home games, Hoffenheim have lost only one match in the last eight montsh, 3-4 against Koln one month ago.
Frankfurt‘s form increased in the past few weeks, proof that they are coming after three wins in a row. They are now on the 7th place in Bundesliga, with 21 points and a better goal difference than the Hoffenheim’s one, scoring 27 goals and conceding 26. Frankfurt still have some problems with the defence, having the worst one of the first 14 position in Germany, with almost two goals conceded per game.
Hoffenheim vs Frankfurt probable lineups:
Hoffenheim (4-2-3-1): Baumann – Beck, Sule, Bicakcic, Kim – Schwegler, Polanski – Volland, Firmino, Rudy – Modeste.
Frankfurt (4-3-1-2): Hildebrand – Chandler, Russ, Anderson, Oczipka – Aigner, Hasebe, Inui – Stendera – Seferovic, Meier.
Prediction: Over 2.5 goals @ 1.40
The odds are not so high for this bet, but we expect a spectacular game, considering that both teams have a good attacking force, while their defence struggled so far. Three of the last four meetings ended with over 2,5 results.

FC Porto vs Shakhtar – Preview and betting tips
FC Porto and Shakhtar Donetsk will play their last match in the UCL group stage this season, today from 19:45, UK Time. These two teams have no real reason to fight for, considering that both are already qualified in the next round.
We can say that FC Porto was the best team in this group, proof that they have the best numbers, with 13 points out of 13 and the best goal difference, 15-3 right now. The lusitans are leading the group, having five more points than Shakhtar Donetsk, so they are 100% sure about the first place in Group H. Porto will have no missing players for this duel.
Shakhtar Donetsk will come here without three of their best players. To be more precise, Luiz Adriano, Darijo Srna and Kucher are all suspended. Mircea Lucescu’s team has eight points at the moment and a 14-3 goal difference. They secured the second place of this group so they will probably use some players from the bench tonight. Shakhtar faced Porto three times in the last four season, ticking two defeats and a draw, 2-2 in the first leg.
FC Porto vs Shakhtar Donetsk probable lineups:
FC Porto (4-3-3): Fernandez – Danilo, Marcano, Indi, Opare – Evandro, Neves, Oliver – Quintero, Aboubakar, Adrian
Shakhtar (4-2-3-1): Pyatov – Ilsinho, Ordets, Rakitskiy, Shevchuk – Stepanenko, Fernando – Costa, Teixeira, Taison – Dentinho
Prediction: Both teams to score – Yes @ 1.91
As we saw in the first leg, we expect another spectacular game between these two sides, considering that they will play without any pressure, trying to impress their fans.

Benfica vs Leverkusen – Preview and betting tips
Benfica and Bayer Leverkusen will be face to face Tuesday evening from 19:45, UK Time, in the last fixture of Uefa Champions League group stage. The hosts have no reason to fight, while Leverkusen are already qualified in the next round.
Benfica was one of the most dissapointing teams of this edition in Uefa Champions League, considering that they were coming after two good european seasons, with two finals in Europa League. The lusitans won only four points in Group C, having the worst goal difference, 2-6. With numbers like these, Benfica are on the 4th place, without any chance to get a place in the last 32 round of Europa League.
Bayer Leverkusen are leading this group, with nine points after five games and they also have the best goal difference of this group, 7-4. The guests have one point ahead Monaco and two ahead Zenit and they can’t miss the last 16 round of UCL. The only thing that they are fighting for is to get the first place of this group. Leverkusen ticked one victory and one defeat in their two away games in UCL.
Leverkusen won the first leg against Benfica, 3-1 more than two months ago in front of their own fans, getting a revenge after they were eliminated last season in Europa League by Benfica.
Prediction: Under 2.5 goals @ 1.80
There are no reasons for Benfica or Leverkusen to force a victory here and we expect a tight game between them, with less than three goals, despite the first leg result (3-1 for Bayer).

Southanpton vs Manchester United – Preview and betting tips
One of the most surprising teams of this campaign in Premier League, Southamton, will host Manchester United today from 20:00, UK Time, in the last game of the 15th fixture. It is very hard to say which team has the first chance, the odds being very balanced right now.
Southampton are coming after three bad games, proof that they won only one point in the last three league matches. Their form decreased so they are on the 4th place right now after an impressive start of the season, being on the second place a good time. “The Saints” have 26 points in their account and an impressive goal difference, with 24 goals scored and ten conceded, having the best defence in Premier League.
Manchester United are coming after four victories in a row so their form increased very much in the last weeks. Rooney & co are now on the 5th place with 25 points and a 24-16 goal difference so they need three points to be back in Top 4. To be more precise, a victory here will get them on the 3rd position. Van Gaal will be without Rafael, Blind, Shaw, Jones, Lingard, all injured, while Di Maria is not 100% fit.
Southampton vs Man United probable lineups:
Southampton (4-2-3-1): Forster – Clyne, Yoshida, Fonte, Bertrand – Wanyama, Davis – Long, Tadic, Mane – Pelle.
Man United ( 4-3-1-2): De Gea – Valencia, Smalling, Rojo, Young – Fellaini, Carrick, Herrera – Mata – Rooney, van Persie.
Prediction: Under 3.0 goals AH @ 1.50
We expect a very tight game, with no more than three goals. If we will see exactly three goals, then our money will be refunded. The last three meetings offered us maximum three goals.
