Football Predictions Sunday
Lyon v Monaco
Both Teams to Score in Both Halves Yes/No - Yes
Lyon and Monaco will come head-to-head on Sunday evening at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais in Ligue 1.
Lyon’s European dreams took a bit of a dent after their 4-1 defeat to PSG on Sunday night but still just five points off the top six, it’s not impossible but time is running out for Les Gones. However, if you had told Lyon they’d have a slight chance of making the top six with four games left to play, they’d have taken that all day after finding themselves bottom of the league after their first fifteen games.
Monaco could secure Champions League group stage football here for the first time since 2019, after their midweek win over top four rivals Lille, they are now ten points clear of Nice in fifth. Monaco are flying away from home as well, they’ve lost just twice on the road and are unbeaten in their last eight Ligue 1 away games, winning all of their last five.
Correct Score - 2:3
I’m expecting goals here, Lyon have seen 53% of their home games produce at least three goals, whilst 73% of Monaco away games have produced the same, we should be in for a thriller and I think Monaco should get the victory given their recent away form.
Fiorentina v Sassuolo
Match Result and Both Teams To Score - Fiorentina and Yes
Fiorentina and Sassuolo lock horns on Sunday evening in Serie A at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence.
Fiorentina suffered heartbreak on Wednesday night after crashing out of the Coppa Italia semi-final at the hands of Atalanta. The Viola must now focus on the league and their European ambitions, currently ninth in Serie A and five points behind Lazio in the final European spot, albeit having played a game less. Of course, there is another route for Fiorentina to secure European football for next season, they welcome Club Brugge to Florence next week in the Europa Conference League semi-final first leg, they’ll be looking to win the competition after falling short in last year’s final against West Ham United.
Sassuolo are in real trouble, Davide Ballardini side haven’t won in their last five games and suffered a worrying loss at the weekend, fellow struggles Leece travelled to Reggio Emilia and put three past the Neroverdi without reply. The Watermelon Peel are now nineteenth in Serie A and two points from safety, having conceded the second most goals in the league, this is worrying times for Sassuolo and with just five games left to play, time is running out.
Correct Score - 3:1
This game should be full of goals, nine of their last eleven meetings have seen both teams hit the back of the net, including the last four games between the two sides in Florence. Having won just twice on the road in Serie A, I feel like Sassuolo will be in for another frustrating night, with Fiorentina taking all three points, although the Neroverdi will fancy themselves to grab at least one goal.
Marseille v Lens
Half-time/Full-time - Olympique Marseille/Olympique Marseille
Lens travel to the Stade Velodrome on Sunday evening to face Marseille in Ligue 1.
Marseille had a chance to put pressure on the top six on Wednesday evening but after finding themselves down to 10 men right before the break against Nice, they were up against it, despite Aubameyang converting a penalty in the second half, they couldn’t see the game out and ended up with their eleventh draw of the season, six of which have been on home soil.
Lens have slipped down to sixth after their recent form, they ended a four-game winless streak last weekend with a 1-0 victory over bottom of the league Clermont. With just five games to go, Lens will be looking to beat Nice to the Europa League place. After finishing second in Ligue 1 last season and experiencing Champions League football, the Blood and Gold might be disappointed with how their season is playing out, especially If they don’t secure some sort of European football.
Correct Score - 2:0
Lens games on the road don’t tend to produce many goals, just 47% of their games have produced at least three goals whilst only five of their fifteen games away from home have seen both teams on the scoresheet, I think Marseille will get a victory here and keep the pressure on.
Real Betis v Sevilla
Match Result and Both Teams To Score - Real Betis and Yes
The Estadio Benito Villamarin will host the El Gran Derbi between Real Betis and Sevilla on Sunday evening in La Liga.
Real Betis enter this derby off the back of consecutive victories over Valencia and Celta Vigo, those victories have moved Los Verdiblancos up into seventh and into the Europa Conference League places, although given they are now just three points behind Real Sociedad, they’ll have their eyes on challenging them for a Europa Legue spot.
Sevilla have put together three consecutive wins which has given them a comfortable twelve-point gap to the bottom three, with only six games left to play, it looks like Sevilla have secured top-flight football for a twenty-fourth consecutive year. Realistically, the best Los Nervionenses can hope for is a midtable finish in La Liga but they’ll be up for the task of putting a dent in their bitter rivals’ European hopes.
MatchCombo - Over 1.5 Real Betis goals & Over 6.5 Real Betis corners
It’s usually a feisty fixture when these two meet as you’d imagine, three of the last six meetings at the Estadio Benito Villamarin have seen the referee produce at least one red card, three were shown in the last fixture here. In terms of goals, Real Betis have seen 56% of their home games produce both teams to score, something that has also occurred in four of their last five competitive head-to-head games, I think we’ll see a home victory here but both teams on the scoresheet.
Football Predictions Monday
FC Barcelona v Valencia
Player to Score a Header - Andreas Christensen
Valencia will travel to Barcelona on Monday evening in round 33 of La Liga.
Barcelona were left feeling very frustrated after their El Clasico defeat to Real Madrid, not only have they possibly lost their slim chance of catching Los Blancos at the top, they felt Lamine Yamal’s shot had crossed the line but VAR suggested otherwise and Barca went on to lose the game 3-2 in the dying embers. The lack of goal-line technology in La Liga is something that must be changed to avoid future situations like this. Notwithstanding that, Barcelona must now end the season as strongly as they can for Xavi Hernandez and their fans.
Valencia slipped up in their last outing after back-to-back victorious, they faced Real Betis with both sides hoping to end the season in the top seven, Betis got the win which resulted in them overtaking Los Ches into seventh, with just six games left to play in La Liga, time is running out. However, only one point separates Valencia from those European places, even a draw here could see the regain that seventh spot.
Correct Score - 3:1
I think Barcelona will get the victory here, they’ve won twelve of their sixteen home games this season and they’ve dominated this fixture in the last six meetings, winning five of them. Valencia have won just five of their sixteen on the road in La Liga, I just think this will be too much for Los Ches.
