Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid

Atletico won the first leg by only 1 goal which will make this game a very tight one where every goal can weigh a lot. The Spanish team knows that if they'll score in this game it will be hard for Liverpool to go in the final. Liverpool also know this and they will have a cautious tactic, but they also need to score once at least. Also I think they are confident that they can score more, and avoid playing in the extra time minutes.

Atletico will miss only Tiago for this game, but they have all the big names in first line up. The defenders made a great game in the first leg, and it'll be very hard for them to repeat that performance on Anfield. Liverpool has some important missing players for this game: Torres who is injured for a while, Maxi Rodrigues who came from Atletico this winter and has no right to play, Skrtel also injured, while Riera, N'Gog and Insua are doubtful.

Liverpool lost the first leg against Lille and Benfica by 1 goal in away game and in home ground they've managed to win by 3 goals ( 3-0 against Lille and 4-1 against Benfica). Tonight I think the game will be similar with the one against Benfica, and we probably see goals for both teams. Atletico has a strong attack formations with Forlan leading start (in my opinion) alongside Aguero, supported by wingers Reyes and Simao.

Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Kyrgiakos, Agger, Lucas, Mascherano, Babel, Gerrard, Banayoun, Kuyt

Atletico: De Gea, Lopez, Dominguez, Perea, Ujvalusi, Simao, Garcia, Assuncao, Reyes, Aguero, Forlan

I'm confided that the pressure created by the crowd will determine the spanish players to make mistakes and see Liverpool scoring a few times. I hope to see Liverpool in the final, as they are fighting again with real chances to win a trophy after a few years.

Lazio vs AS Roma

AS Roma had an incredible period and they have now the first chance winning the Serie A trophy. Probably, Lazio will be the team which decides the winner as they will play with Roma today and also with Inter at the beginning of May. In this derby, Lazio won the last 3 games when they where hosts. Even if Lazio is safe for the moment and probably will avoid relegation, they will be motivated to win this game and stop AS Roma winning the trophy, being known the rivality between these teams. However, I don't think they have the value for this. AS Roma is in great form, has a good team and the good news for them is that all their best players are fit and ready to play. If they will prepare well the tactics they can win not only against Lazio, but against any team in Serie A. I really think that they deserve to win the trophy, and maybe they'll do in the end.

Lazio will miss Matuzalem and Foggia for this game, but they have enough substitutes for them, having a balanced squad. They don't score too much, and also have a good defense, but AS Roma has a great attack. If Roma scores first, they will have a lot of counter attack chances as Lazio will need to attack. I think AS Roma's defense should be improved for next season, but I hope they can face the veteran Rocchi for this game.

Probable teams:
Lazio: Muslera, Dias, Stendardo, Radu, Lichsteiner, Brocchi, Ledesma, Mauri, Kolarev, Rocchi, Floccari

Roma: Julio Sergio, Cassetti, Juan, Burdisso, Riise, Perotta, Pizarro, De Rossi, Totti, Toni, Vucinic

Our prediction: AS Roma to win, 6/10 @2.04 at Pinnacle

Final result: 1 - 2, +6.24

Tottenham vs Arsenal

Very important game between Tottenham and Arsenal this round of Premier League. Arsenal was eliminated by Barcelona in Champions League and now they are only fighting to win the Premier League trophy. If they'll win this game, they will have only a hard game against Man City. However, Chelsea will have to play also against Tottenham, but also against Liverpool. So, the gunners still have chances to win the trophy after a long time.

Tottenham needs also a win in this game as they want to play in Champions League next season and Manchester City has the first chance in this moment. As they were eliminated in the weekend in FA Cup by Portsmouth, they need to have a comeback and win this game. This will be a game where both teams will need the win if they want to achieve their targets.

Both teams will miss a lot of important players. Arsenal will play without Fabregas, Arshavin, Gallas, Djourou, Ramsey while Van Persie and Song are doubtful for this game. However we might have the surprise to see Van Persie to play again. Tottenham could miss also a lot of players today: Cudicini, Woodgate, Ledley King, Aaron Lennon, Jermaine Jenas while Vedran Corluka, Michael Dawson and Tom Huddlestone are doubtful.

This is a local derby and the stake is big for both teams. I hope to see an entertaining match, with many scoring chances. If one team will score soon in the game, pretty sure that we'll more goals and a spectacular game.

Liverpool vs Fulham

Both teams come after wins in and qualifications in Europa League. Fulham won surprisingly against Wolfsburg, in both legs and they are now playing the semi-finals against Hamburger SV. Both teams could be a little tired, but for sure Fulham is more tired maybe more happy for their performance (because there are not used with this kind of performance). Liverpool must come back in the fight for 4th place in Premier League, they are very motivated for this game, they're in good form and have all the important players fit to start the game. On the other hand, Fulham is in a safe position, no relegation worries, no European hopes.

Fulham might miss some players, Bobby Zamora being doubtful and maybe rested for this game. Also there are some worries for Simon Davies and Clint Dempsey, but nothing is for sure. The odds aren't such good, but I think this is a good bet option. I hope Liverpool won't miss too much chances or make to many error in the defense. They need to score in the first half, and then Fulham won't have the power to comeback. Also, we saw Liverpool counter attacking against Benfica, and they are really good for this. In this game they'll have Maxi Rodriguez also in the first line up who will give them a plus in the attack.

Our prediction: Liverpool -1.5, 7/10 @1.81 at Pinnacle

Final result: 0 - 0, -7.00

Liverpool vs Benfica

Liverpool started well the first leg, and they should get more in that game. But Babel took that red card in first half and Benfica started to play better and better, encouraged by those fantastic fans. However, they could score twice only after 2 penalties were given, so we can say that they've won the game with some luck: with one more player than Liverpool, crazy fans encouraging them and two penalties. On Anfield, things should go in the opposite way. Liverpool will have the fans, playing 11 vs 11 and with the motivation that they should win this game to qualify.

It's obvious that Benfica will try everything to qualify as they don't have anything else to fight for this season ( they are almost champions in Portugal and nothing else can happen in the remaining rounds). They have big expectations after they won in first leg. They will miss only Saviola as an important player. The rest of the team is quite the same as in the first leg.

Liverpool still have small chances to get 4th place in Premier League and they will fight till the end. However it's pretty sure that everyone at the club want a trophy, even if it's Europa League and not Champions League or Premier League. So they need a win tonight, and even one by 2 goals or more if Benfica scores. They aren't playing too bad, and I see them with first chance here to qualify. However, they will miss some important players like Skrtel, Insua, Babel or Maxi Rodriguez who already played for Atletico this season in Europa League.

I won't be surprised if this will be an over 2.5 goals game, but I also know that it's very possible to see 1-0 on the scoreboard at the end of the game. So, for me this is the best bet.

Our prediction: Liverpool -0.75, 7/10 @1.76 at 188Bet

Final result: 4 - 1, +5.32

FC Barcelona vs Arsenal

After a spectacular 2-2 draw in the first leg, Barcelona seems to be favorite to win this game and to qualify. The catalans played better in the first game, having more scoring chances, but Almunia was one of the best players in the game. This game won't be the same, it will be much harder for Arsenal's defense to keep the ball away.

Both teams will miss a lot of important players. Barcelona will play without suspended Puyol and injured Pique, so Marquez and Milito will probably start the game in first lineup. Also Ibrahimovic is injured and he can even miss the derby against Real Madrid. Iniesta seems to be back, but is not sure if he will start the game in the field or he will enter in the second half. The defense is weak for Barcelona, but I think the midfield will keep the ball a lot and will intercept a lot of important balls. Guardiola will have tho choose between Xavi, Iniesta, Yaya Toure, Busquets and Keita to play in the midfield. I think the best choice is to play with Xavi, Yaya Toure and Keita as they will gain more strength. Even if Ibrahimovic will miss the game, Bojan seems to be in good shape scoring 2 goals against Bilbao in the weekend. Alongside Messi and Pedro, Barcelona's offensive will be good enough to score some goals.

Arsenal will miss some of their important players, starting with suspended, but also injured Cesc Fabregas. Arshavin will also miss this game, and the English team will loose o lot in the midfield without these 2 players. I don't think they have too many chances starting the game with Denilson or Eboue in the midfield. Rosiscky is a good player, but he never was in his best shape as he is injured too often. Nasri is also a talented player, but he still needs more games to play at this level to have the needed experience. The defense will suffer as Gallas is also injured for this game. If Arsenal had their best squad they could have a good chance to qualify, but in these conditions I see them loosing this game by 2 or more goals. I don't even think they can score. However, I hope the Gunners will win the Premier League trophy this year, but we all know that Chelsea has the first chance.

Probable teams:
Barcelona: Valdes, Dani Alves, Marquez, Milito, Abidal, Xavi, Busquets, Keita, Messi, Pedro, Bojan

Arsenal: Almunia, Clichy, Vermaelen, Diaby, Sagna, Nasri, Denilson, Eboue, Rosiscky, Bendtner, Walcott

Our prediction: Barcelona -1.25 AH, 7/10 @1.81 at Pinnacle

Final result: 4 - 1, +5.67

Racing Santander vs Real Madrid

Real Madrid is a scoring machine lately and we have all reasons to believe this will gonna be again an over game. First of all, each team playing against Real Madrid will be very motivated to score. Racing is 6 points above relegation zone, and we can say they are somehow saved. However they should make a good game today and give their best, because it's Real playing.

As I said, Los Blancos are scoring a lot of goals, and this game should be the same. They must take in consideration that it's possible to win 1-0 against Barcelona next week, but at the end of the season to have the same number of points. Then, the team scored more goals will have the advantage winning the trophy. Barcelona scored +3 goals against Bilbao, and this battle is tight against Real. We all say that if Real opens the score they don't go back and try to score as many goals as they can. Also, they have some defense issues, as Sergio Ramos will miss this game.

I won't try to find more reasons, the facts are quite simple for me. I know there will be a moment when Real won't score too much and the game will end with only 1 or two goals, but I really don't think now is the time.

The probable teams:
Racing Santander: Coltorti, Christian, Moraton, Torrejon, Pinillos, Munitis, Colsa, Lacen, Serrano, Canales, Tchite

Real Madrid: Casillas, Marcelo, Albiol, Arbeloa, Van der Vaart, Gago, Lassana Diarra, Granero, Cristiano Ronaldo, Higuian

Our prediction: Over 3, 7/10 @1.80 at Pinnacle

Final result: 0 - 2, -7.00
