Important match for Arezzo on Saturday.
Sarri’s team will face amazing Albinoleffe, looking for precious points for avoiding relegation.
Local squad will come from two draws in a row, Frosinone at home and Napoli away.
Forwards Floro Flores and Volpato ahead, can help to reach this target.
Higher Arezzo motivation, can allow to take three points for Tuscany’s team.

Spezia and Frosinone played in C1 last season.
They have been playing a good serie B championship,
Home team with new arrival, forward Colombo and midfìelder Do Prado, is surely improved.
Frosinone will afford this transfer without regular midfielders Fialdini and Di Venanzio.
Spezia could obtain three points in front own supporters.

Medimurje Cakovec - Kamen (CRO - Croatian Premier Division) Bet on this Game

f someone offered me these odds at the start of the season i would say he is crazy to put Kamen as underdogs here. Still after 19 rounds reality looks different. Kamen is rock bottom in the league while Medjimurje was a positive shock for me holding 5th place at the moment.

Statistics look like this :
5. Medjimurje (6-0-3 17:11) at home and (3-0-3) form record
12. Kamen (0-1-8 8:24) away and(1-0-5) form record.

Last 5 matches :
Sep 30, 2006 Kamen Medimurje 0 - 2 Nov 26, 2005 Medimurje Kamen 0 - 3 Aug 27, 2005 Kamen Medimurje 2 - 2 May 18, 2005 Medimurje Kamen 1 - 0 Apr 16, 2005 Kamen Medimurje 0 - 1

Medjimurje with a positive balance in both cases. Let's now focus on their last week games - Medjimurje played a very good game and won away to Cibalia 3:0. Maybe the result is not fair as Cibalia wasn't so bad and Medjimurje scored from counterattacks but still - deserved win. Kamen managed to beat Pula at home by a single goal - but Pula played without 7 players in this one.

Let's not forget that Kamen is still in deep financial crisis and depends mostly on the team spirit. They maybe did a get moral boost by winning last game but that won't be enough to do the same vs. Medjimurje. Kamen coach Čordaš is aware of that and said that point would be a great job. Čutuk is no longer in team and Tomić is out due to red card for Kamen. Also Brkić is injured while Šest and Sklepć are ill and questionable for this one.
Medjimurje lost only one home game (vs. Dinamo 2:3) in last 4 months! I see no problem for them here as Čordaš can't do everything himself for Kamen and Mujčin is way too old to compete with well organised Medjimurje midfield. Honestly i would take anything above 1.55 on Medjimurje here.

Slaven B. - Cibalia (CRO - Croatian Premier Division) Bet on this Game

fefi_cg Home 1.51 10/10 -

Slaven played a good game in Varaždin especially in midfield and defence. Varteks didn't show anything spectaculara and draw was a fair result at the end. On the other hand Cibalia was preety much controling the game vs. Medjimurje but fell apart in last 20 minutes with some terrible mistakes by their goalie Marić. He is definitley not in a good shape and coach Petković should replace him if you ask me.

Cibalia is one of the main candidates for relegation at the moment while Slaven needs to win to get that 6th place and play-offs.

Statictics :
11. Cibalia (0-1-8 3:21) record and (1-1-4) form looks very bad.
7. Slaven (5-2-2) at home and (2-2-2) form looks good.

Last 3 games at Koprivnica :
Apr 22, 2006 Slaven Cibalia 1 - 0
Nov 19, 2005 Slaven Cibalia 4 - 2
Mar 27, 2004 Slaven Cibalia 2 - 0

Cibalia and Kamen have the worst defence in the league and now when Marić is out of form and two important players are out (Antun Andričević and Ivan medvid) i see them conceding at least two goals in this one. Only thing that worries me a little bit is abcence of Mumlek (Slaven captain) but still i have faith in Vručina- Dodik duo to do the job in attack. Slaven played a friendly game vs. Panonija two days ago (4th league) and showed good attacking skills - won 10:0 but i think they have a spare goal or two for Cibalia here.

fefi_cg Home 1.75 10/10 -

Another big game here in the Championship with Wolves taking on Leeds. I saw Wolves on tuesday night against Ipswich and they defended very well and up front they have a strike force in Keogh and Ward they have an exciting Strike force.

Leeds on the other hand are desperate for the points and they need to start stringing some results togther sooner rather than later. But i cant see them going to Molineux and really troubling an inform Wolves side. They have injurys for this game aswell which is not going to help them and i would be very surprised if there is anything but a home win.

Southampton - Ipswich (ENG - English Championship) Bet on this Game

fefi_cg Away 4.8 10/10 Sure -

I don’t rate Southampton at all.They simply lack both character and confidence when it matters and now when the pressure’s really on they could show the worst of them.Actually, reading some of the post-match comments after the failure in the Coventry match and the expectations ahead of today’s clash, they’re the ones who’re putting themselves under some big pressure and in a must-win situation here and this approach could just work against them IMO as obviously they want badly these three points!Ipswich play for nothing and normally have nothing to lose, but they’re surely going all out to win this one and under these circumstances, with all the pressure being on the home side, they’re likely to enjoy much more than Saints in this match I believe!The Tractor Boys are though in a clear downtrend period lately, with four defeats on the trot, in all competitions, but this is very harsh without a doubt as the level of their football is very high, especially was in the last two matches, vs.Watford and Wolverhampton and sooner or later things are definitely gonna turn around.You can say absolutely nothing against them, although their scoring problems are obvious, but like their coach said they just need that one goal and everything’s gonna be easier after that.Ipswich outclassed Wolves a few days ago and with the same stuffs they stand absolutely every chance against Southamtpon IMO.The Saints have got the worst defensive record of all Top 9 teams(promotion candidates), they’re easily conceding goals right now and after watching Ipswich’s performances against Wolverhampton they’ll hardly enjoy a clean sheet in today’s clash.Ipswich are missing a couple of important players, but one way or another they should have a very strong look.In players like De Vos, Legwinski and Lee, they’ve got enough class and experience in all areas and mixed with a number or young and talented lads they hardly look any worse than Southampton!This offer represents massive value!Ipswich Town won this fixture last season(2:0) and also they managed to beat Southampton(2:1) earlier this season.They have absolutely nothing to be afraid of!

Middlesbrough - Reading (ENG - English Premier League) Bet on this Game

fefi_cg Home 2.2 10/10 Sure -

It's Sunday and a new Premiership round knocks at the door.We have a strong home side with plenty of good players like Boro is and we have an extremely overrated Reading who claims to have the right to be priced as being equal.

Middlesbrough is traditionally strong at The Riverside Stadium and most of the teams have been beaten there.Bolton have been trashed 5-1 while Gunners were lucky not to lose recently.However, Boro have been ashamed in their last trip at Stamford Bridge being defeated 3-0, this is why I expect them to bounce back and shrug oil on this poor performance as fast as possible.Rochemback will miss the clash but Woodgate is back in the squad which is extermely important for their consistence in defence.Dong Gook Lee could make his debut up front sutained by great Yakubu.

Reading have managed an impressive run recenly, unbelievable I would say.5 wins in the last 6 games!For the category Reading comes from, such performance is of a big importance.They've been playing like a team, this is the best purport of these results but this cannot last too long, not against sides like Boro.Their manager Steve Copell said:"In many ways it could be understandable if we eased off a little".

Trabzonspor - Besiktas (TUR - Turkish Super Ligi) Bet on this Game

Tipster Pick Odd Stake Sure Score Result
fefi_cg Away 2.55 10/10 Sure -

I had to take this early bet before a possible decline in the odds of Beşiktaş. I am using all my 10 stakes becasue for me this is a game that either to bet on Beşiktaş with full stakes or to stay away, decide yourself after reading my reasoning. This is a must win game for Beşiktaş not onşy for the title but also keep the hopes alive for 2nd spot(C.League). Also, Kayserispor and Gençlerbirliği are just 2-3 points behind them to take the 3rd spot they have at the moment. In case of a point/s loss Beşiktaş may even lose the 3rd spot. I follow Trabzonspor closely from the beginning and to summarize them I have to tell you that they just dont have the enough firepower, concistance and quality to beat Beşiktaş. I am sure since this is a so called "derby", a big match, Trabzonspor will try to give their best, but Beşiktaş will do the same and if both teams want to win, the better team should win it espacially under these circumtances and with these odds. Beşiktaş's away performance is bad so far but they ar clever enough to see the difference and importance of this game espacially after losing to Konya last week. I am abig Galatasaray fan but I have to be objective and should point the fact that; Beşiktaş will face Galatasaray next week so, a win here means that they will have the chance to pass Galatasaray and take the 2nd spot next week by beating them. As I explained above, because of many reasons Beşiktaş needs this win more than Trabzonspor and at the end of the 90 minutes which is imo the most important game for Beşiktaş since the beginning of teh season, I expect to see Beşiktaş as the winner and I am confident about that.

Atalanta - Palermo (ITA - Italy Serie A) Bet on this Game

Tipster Pick Odd Stake Sure Score Result
fefi_cg Home 2.35 10/10 Sure -

Atalanta played a solid season till now and is very hard to beat at home. They are very stabile in their defense and this is the key for their success till now. Nothing special team news till now. Palermo has some problems after Amauri get injured. Their play isn't such successful as at the beginning of the season or in the first half. They had big problems to score in the past matches and i rate them not much better for the encounter in Bergamo. Playmaker Corini and Di Michele are suspended for Palermo. All in all is this a big blow for them and makes the offense not better. Expect a very defensiv playing side from Palermo.
