Football Predictions Monday
Leece v Udinese
Match Result and Both Teams To Score - Draw and Yes
A struggling Udinese side will travel to the Stadio Via del Mare on Monday evening to face Leece in Serie A.
Leece have put together four game unbeaten run just at the right time, having found themselves flirting with relegation, eight points from their last four games has moved the Giallorossi up to thirteenth and seven points clear of the drop with just three games left to play. They looked to have secured safety and should be playing Italian top-flight football for the third year in a row next season, although at least a draw here would make that a certainty.
Udinese have simply drawn too many games this season, 51% of their games (18) have ended in a stalemate and they’ve picked up three points just four times this season, that’s the reason why they find themselves in the bottom three and two points from safety. However, the good news for the Little Zebras is their survival is in their hands, within their remaining three games, their last two fixtures are against the two sides that are directly above them in seventeenth and sixteenth respectably, with just two points separating them all, if they can find a winner in these pivotal games they will make it thirty (30) consecutive years playing in Serie A.
Correct Score - 1:1
Both of these sides have drawn their last two games with the same scoreline (1-1), two of their last four meetings have also finished 1-1, given Udinese are the Serie A draw specialists this season and Leece not too far behind, I think we’re in for another score draw here.
Aston Villa v Liverpool
MatchCombo - Ollie Watkins to score anytime, Mohamed Salah to score anytime, each team over 3.5 corners & Douglas Luiz to be carded
Monday night football from the Premier League brings us an intriguing contest between two of the top four sides, it’s Aston Villa v Liverpool at Villa Park.
With just two games left to play, Aston Villa now have Champions League football for next season well and truly in their hands, they could actually have fourth spot secured before this fixture, depending on how Tottenham get on against Burnley but a win here would definitely secure that precious final UCL spot for Unai Emery’s side, who this week has been nominated for manager of the year in the Premier League.
Liverpool are just looking to give Jurgen Klopp a proper sending off, they had hoped to give the German a few trophies on his farewell tour but it looks like the Reds will have to settle for a Carabao Cup trophy and third in the league. After slipping up to both Everton and West Ham in recent weeks, Liverpool bounced back in their last outing with a 4-2 victory over Spurs, a result which looks to have helped ease any potential pressure for Monday nights opponents, Villa.
Both Teams to Score in Both Halves Yes/No - Yes
Aston Villa have a very famous victory in this fixture, their 7-2 victory in 2020 will live long in the memory of many Villans, although they haven’t beaten Liverpool in their seven attempts since that huge win, Liverpool have actually won six of those. The last seven games at Villa Park between these two have produced at least three goals, with both teams scoring in their last four.
FC Barcelona v Real Sociedad
Match Result and Both Teams To Score - FC Barcelona and Yes
Real Sociedad will take a trip to the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys on Monday evening to face FC Barcelona in La Liga.
Barcelona enter this fixture in third place after Girona’s victory against the Spanish giants in their last outing, there’s now one point between the two sides with four games left to play. Xavi confirmed that he’s changed his mind regarding his future and will be staying on as Barcelona boss for next season, they’ve already secured Champions League football and will just be looking to finish the season as strong as they can and hopefully claim second place back from La Liga’s surprise package, Girona.
Real Sociedad put an end to their three-game winless streak in their last outing against Las Palmas, La Real occupy that final Europa League spot (6th) although after a good run of results, they’ve got Real Betis hot on their heels with just four games left to play. La Real will also be a little concerned given the fixtures they’ve got left, Barcelona (3rd), Valencia (8th), Betis (7th) and Atletico Madrid (4th), it’s a tough ask and they’ll need to put some really good performances in if they are to keep this Europa League spot.
Correct Score - 4:2
Barcelona have been entertaining of late, five of their last six games have produced at least five goals but they’ve actually lost three of their last four games in all competitions. Despite La Real beating Barcelona at the Camp Nou last season, when Barca have been classed as they home team, they’ve won twenty-four of their last twenty give against Real Sociedad.
