This evening begins the 1/8-final phase of the Europa League. On the terrain of the Old Continent it is getting hotter and we expect to see even more interesting clashes. The duel that grabs the most attention is though between Milan and Arsenal. This collision appears as the final before the final, as the two most serious contenders in the race stand against each other.

Both teams are on the opposite pole in their recent performance. Rosoneries are going up the line under the direction of Gennaro Gatuzo. The team is in a series of three consecutive wins in the “A” series and a total of 8 losses without loss. The Milanians did a perfect match in the last round, eliminating without any difficulty the Bulgarian champion Ludogorets. At this stage, they make a joke as a favorite.

At the same time Arsenal is in a big hole. The team recorded 4 losses in their last 5 games in the Premier League and more and more away from the top 4. In addition, the Gunners also fell poorly in the Manchester City League final (0: 3). Now League Europe appears to be the best chance for Arsene Wenger to grab a trophy, and so they can get involved in the Champions League next year. For this reason, they will be thrown all the way to Giuseppe Meazza tonight.

But this is not the only interesting clash tonight. The match between Atletico Madrid and Lokomotiv (Moscow) seems quite intriguing at first glance. The intrigue is also in the only meeting with Bulgarian participation, where Georgi Milanov and his CSKA (Moscow) accept another of the big contenders for the trophy in Lyon. We should not miss the match between Olympic Marseille and Athletic Bilbao, which also makes it quite exciting.

Juventus has eliminated Tottenham from the Champions League after winning a remarkable 2-1 win at Wembley and a 4: 3 overall score for the 1/4 finals. Spurs dominated most of the game and deservedly took a shot at Son Hyun-Min (39 ‘) and the guests did not manage to score a shot for more than an hour. However, Gonzalo Iguaine led the “bianconers” to a turnaround in less than three minutes. The Argentine equalized in the 64th and in the 67th assists Paulo Diballa for the final 1: 2. At the last minute and the beam helped Juve after Harry Kane’s head hit. Tottenham became the first English team to be eliminated in the Champions League this season.

Host manager Mauricio Pocetino made two changes compared to the first match. Keuron Tripir started to the right of the defense instead of Serge Orie. Expected Son Hyun-Min starts at the expense of Eric Lamela.
Andrea Bardzali was preferred to Mattia De Shilio on the right wing of Juve’s defense. Gonzalo Iguaine, Paulo Diballa and Douglas Kosta started in front. Blessed Matthew returned after missing the first match, while Mario Manjukic, Federico Bernardeski and Juan Quadrado missed the match because of injuries. The duel began with a controversial situation after the first minute Benatiya cleared a center in the penalty area of ​​the guests, but the ball also met the defender’s hand. A signal did not follow.

Two minutes later, Kane took Son to the left. The Koreans dealt with Bardzali and fired hard in the near corner, but Buffon slaughtered. Juventus quickly stepped into the pace of the hosts and in the seventh minute created some tension before the door of Loris. Center centered, but inches did not reach Iguaine’s head.

At the 14th minute, Eriken took Cain into the penalty area, and Kellini made a sword where the ball met his hand, and then Benita intervened. Tottenham striker demanded a penalty, but a signal did not follow again, although the repetitions showed that there might have been grounds for it. The pressure of the Spurs continued, and two minutes later, Cane had a pull pass again, this time by Dele Ali. The attacker overcame Chiellini, then passed along Buffon, but the angle became small and his shot went sideways.

In the 17th minute, Juventus suffered a defeat after a counterattack of the Vertongen team tripped to the penalty area Douglas Kosta. Chief Referee Simon Marcinjak, however, signaled the game to continue despite the stormy protests of the yellow players surrounding him.

The duel continued to develop at a very high pace. In the 20th minute Buffon had to intervene decisively for the second time after Son’s head hit. Shortly thereafter, the Korean, who was very active in those minutes, once again invaded the penalty area, but this time his shot was blocked.

Cane and Son missed another good situation for the hosts after shooting inaccurately to reach the 39th minute when Tottenham’s best player so far – Son Hyun-Min, gave a well-deserved advance to Londoners. Dele Ali got into the penalty area, Benita swung to a sword and cleared, but the ball came to Tripir, which centered low. Soun knocked on the far beam, and although he did not find the ball that he had ricocheted in his foot, he entered Buffon’s door.
Juve tried to respond immediately and quickly organized one of his few dangerous attacks in the first half in the 42nd minute when Kosta broke the right flank and then found Pjanic on the border of the penalty area. The last shot went centimeters aside.

Eventually, the “bianconers” failed to record a single shot in the first half.

The second half began with a much more torn game and a lot of misconduct.

In the 63rd minute Juventus came to a situation that created Sanchez, who tried very poorly clearing at the door of Loris. The ball reached the Diball, but his shot was extremely inaccurate.

At that moment the moment of the guests came. In the 64th minute Liechtenstein was drawn to the right wing, then centered in the penalty area, where Kedera continued very well with his head to the Iguaine, who jumped behind the defense and reached out, putting the first accurate shot in Juve’s 1-1. Two minutes and 49 seconds after that, Iguaine did well with DiBalla, who looked up with Loris and matched him with a 1: 2 lead.

Tottenham instantly pressed. In the 79th minute Son is very dangerous to Kane, but it is the last moment that Chieleni hurled and crossed, not even sending the ball to his own door. In the 83rd minute, a new, dangerous shot from Son from a distant distance passed inches from Buffon’s door. Minutes before the end, Eriksen fired from the border of the penalty area, but Chieleni threw himself self-sacrificing and blocked as the ball again met the defender’s hand. Seconds after the strike of Harry Kane with his head met the far beam, then went to the goal but eventually did not enter Buffon’s door.

With his two victories over Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid qualified for the 1/4-final in the Champions League for the eighth consecutive year. A longer run of this phase in the tournament has only Barcelona – 10.

Daniel Carvahal, the defender of the “white ballet”, equalized the record of consecutive matches without a loss in the Champions League for a single player. The duel against PSG was the 24th consecutive in which Karvahal was on the pitch and Real did not lose. With the same achievement of 8 years ago, Luis Nani and Patrice Evra can also boast Manchester United team. For the last time, Carvalhal defeated Real in the tournament in May 2015, when the royal club retreated to Juventus with 1: 2 in the rematch of the semi-finals.

The match in Paris tonight marked the end of the unbeatable PSG series at home. The French Grand Prix suffered a first loss of Park de Prince after 19 consecutive wins and a total of 51 defeat games.

Paris Saint-Germain Nasser Al-Helaifi’s president spoke to the media after the French team of the Champions League dropped out. PSG lost to Real Madrid for the second time and left the tournament in the eighth finals, and the club’s boss did not hide his disappointment from some of the players.

“I was most upset by the reaction of some of the players. We are very dissatisfied with the outcome. In the first half we dominated, but we missed the finish. If we had scored a goal, everything would have been different because we played better. Marco Verrat’s red card killed the match. Now we have to keep working to enjoy the fans. The match did not evolve as we wanted, but we believe in our project. Now is no time for change. We need to keep calm and think about everything. We are happy with our investments and believe in the players. Neimar and Kilian Mbabe are the future of our club, “said Al-Healing. Even before last night’s game in France, it was reported that PSG could invite none of the coaches next season, and Real Madrid’s current coach Zinedine Zidane. However, this can only happen if Real has not won the Champions League and Zuzu is fired.

Certainly Unai Emery will not be at the head of the PSG. The Spaniard missed his chance with dropping out of the royal club.

Nasser Al-Kelafim’s associates say that Neymar’s injury has provoked an inexorable disdain for the president of Paris Saint-Germain. In talks with the club, he spoke in a tone that unveiled the possibility of a turnaround in the Champions League’s eighth finals with Real Madrid (1: 3) without the Brazilian record transfer in the history of football, which has become a cornerstone of the Qatari project . Without all the technical fireworks that he so admired by Nei’s arsenal, the team in the sheikh’s words would have gotten even greater difference in the result of Santiago Bernabeu.

Al-Kelafiy has let himself be immersed in the melancholy of defeat, which contrasts sharply with the sharp increase in euphoria in the composition. After Neymar left for surgery in Brazil, self-confidence returned to Cannes de la Loge’s dressing room. This is what the coaches say, some of the players confirm it and support staff in the club. “With Neymar we had 5% chances,” they say, “we now have 50%.”

Only Tiago Silva and Daniel Alves, who are Nay’s adjutants, are skeptical. On the other hand, Essonne Cavani, Angel Di Maria, Javier Pastore, Adrian Rabio, Marco Verratti, Julian Draxler, Marguinos and Kilian Mabé are of the opinion that they have the unique opportunity to prove that they cost much more than people think in the club’s offices. They are sure to score many Madrid goals (as much as 2: 0), to eliminate the European champion and show the world that the team is performing much better without its top top: a super-footballer who does not stops referring to his other colleagues, without, in their opinion, deserving it with the appearance of the field; a super football player, to whom they feel more distrust than respect.

PSG players also want to prove that the difference between their second-level rights and the privileges of the idol is like proportions far greater than the difference in the displayed football and the merits of the team. “Did he accidentally win the Golden Ball?” They ask, after seven months, looking closely at the Qatari bosses pouring goods into Neamar’s legs, allowing him to skip the disciplinary rules in force last summer, make decisions about how to train and prepare matches, skip working days for personal reasons, and even speak loudly on club policy issues. In a nutshell, they rank it hierarchically with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, the best players of the century, even with al-Kelafi himself. Not to mention the money: He buys 47 million euros net per year, three times more than the next – Mbape (17 million), and four times more than Di Maria.

The latter perfectly illustrates the situation of the second echelon in the most expensive composition of the planet. At the age of 30, the left wing knows how professional disrespect means. Madrid sold it in 2014 to fund the transfer of Hamess Rodriguez, and in 2015 PSG bought it from Manchester United for 63 million euros – then the second most expensive transfer in the history of the club, only a million from that of Cavani. If there is a player left in an unpleasant situation by the transfer megacharch last summer, this is definitely the Argentinean.

In August, after Neymar and Mabé bought for a total of over € 400 million, Parisians sent an Emperor to offer Di Maria to various clubs, among them Barca. For a week, Al-Kelafiffs believed UEFA would oblige him to find receipts to balance the balance sheet and meet the Financial Fairplay conditions. Well-known in the market, Di Maria has become a potential exchange coin, as happened with half of the staff, including Rabio and Marguinos.

Di Maria stayed in Paris after he got to know the deadline for the account, and Unai Emery asked the player to be detained. Not knowing that his coach had never placed him on the list of marketable players, the Argentine stopped talking to him for weeks, but the presence of Neymar, Mabape and Cavani did not allow him much opportunity to play: only 67 minutes this season in Switzerland and Bernabeu did not play at all. However, his performance is remarkable: 16 goals and 15 assists in 32 games. Last season he scored two goals for Olympique Marseille for the Cup, and on Saturday in a League 1 match, he found the result in winning Troyes. The match against Madrid (the club where he felt unfairly rejected) has become a fixation for him in search of personal revenge in many directions. And he will not be alone in this respect among the Parisian players.

The happy atmosphere in the dressing room after Neymar’s injury contradicts the shameful collective spirit after 3: 1 at Bernabeu. Club officials have seen such readiness for players not to oppose their full efforts to eventually break the Neymar project that they even feared Park de Premium’s rematch. In an attempt to avoid becoming a laugh, Al-Kelafiy resorted to special methods of motivation. Sources from the locker room indicate that the president has allowed the entrance of one of the finest fan factions into the training ground for face-to-face conversations with the players. Club-TV broadcast this event as part of the folklore, and some of the players said they felt threatened.

Unable to look for soccer picks after Neymar’s refusal to play the game, PSG management seems to have no confidence in the team’s ability to reverse the overall score. This Sunday, Sporting Director Anterue Enrique, in an interview with the Team newspaper, said the loss in the first game had come because of an addicted judge and the removal of Madrid could only happen with “extreme judging.”

Since management is aware of the increasingly cooling relationship between Neymar and the majority of the players in the squad, and since it is paid that public opinion can turn to the thesis that the team is better without the superstar that defines their entire strategy, people in the upper floors of the club started making a propaganda campaign. “We want to dedicate our possible ranking to Neymar,” said Emery on Saturday, and Anterue Enrique followed him in a spirit of campaigning: “Neymar can help us from outside: with his spirit, with his relationship with the players, the headquarters and the fans. Although he can not play, we feel he is with us. Neimar is the leader of the team and his teammates want to give everything to him. ”

These public statements by the SGP representatives do not totally coincide with the words of the anonymous figures from the dressing room. Until the so-called ” “Leader” a week ago, the setting of Cannes de Lodz was just mournful. Today, the king is animated and enthusiastic, driven by the thirst for revenge and proof of his own value by artificially shadowing football players.

The games of the 27th round of the A Series, which was postponed due to the tragic death of David Astori, will be played on 3-4 April, with only the date for the Milan-Inter derby being decided further.

The Italian federation wants to see what the “Rosoner” in the Europa League will do. The final of the Italian Cup, which is between Milan and Juventus on 9 May, could be moved, but this will be commented on by the League of Nations matches.

The busy schedule of the Rosoner will be played, which will play Juventus final for the Italian Cup and continue with their participation in the Europa League tournament. The “old lady” can also be dissatisfied with the changes in the schedule, because the Cup final might eventually be scheduled for the end of the season in the A series (May 20), and potentially the biker can think of the final in Kiev in the Champions League (May 26), says Gazzetta.

Another meeting has a vague future. It is impossible to play against Atalanta and Sampdoria on March 14th, as the burgas will play a second-round match with Juventus.

Chievo hosts Sassuolo in a match from the 27th round of the Italian Serie A. We will examine this game in the City of Love and we will bring you our soccer betting tips for today.

Chievo are currently 15th in the Serie A with 25 points won until today. They have a record of 6 wins, 7 draws and 13 defeats. Right now Chievo are on just 4 points above the 18th Crotone and the relegation zone, so they can’t be absolutely calm about their survival and future in the Serie A. They need to win some more points in order to guarantee their survival.

In the last five rounds of the league Chievo are in a pretty much bad form. They won once against Cagliari, but also suffered four defeats against Juventus, Atalanta, Genoa and Fiorentina. Most surely, this is not the form Chievo probably want to show in the league. Now they will have another chance of doing better against Sassuolo.

Speaking of Sassuolo, they are 16th in the Serie A and one position under Chievo in the league standings. They have 23 points and a record of 6 wins, 5 draws and 15 defeats. In their last five matches Sassuolo are also pretty terrible – four defeats and just one point won during the 0-0 draw with Cagliari at home.

In their last game Sassuolo suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat against Lazio at home. They were totally outplayed by the visiting team, being unable to counter them. Now they will try to do better against Chievo.

The match between Chievo and Sassuolo is a typical game between two teams who really need points. Neither Chievo or Sassuolo can feel safe for their place in the Serie A, so both teams would like to win this one. This is our say in our soccer betting tips for today.

Benevento hosts Hellas Verona in a match from the 27th round of the Italian Serie A. Here are our predictions football 1×2 for this clash.

They have a really unimpressive record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 22 defeats since the start of the campaign. They could go down in history as one of the weakest teams in the whole history of the Serie A.

In their last five games Benevento won once against Crotone, but also suffered four defeats against Torino, Napoli, Roma and Inter. It looks clear now that they won’t keep their place in the elite division. The question is – how many points can they win until the end of the campaign?

Hellas Verona on the other hand are 19th in the Serie A with 19 points. The difference between them and Benevento is that Hellas Verona still have some chance to survive. If they win this game, they will have 22 points – just one point less than the 17th SPAL and the relegation zone. This is why this match is so important for Hellas Verona.

In their last five games Hellas Verona enjoyed two wins over Fiorentina and Torino, while in same time they suffered defeats against Roma, Sampdoria and Lazio. This is a great chance for Verona to win some precious points and they shall not miss it.

These are our predictions football 1×2 for the Serie A game between Benevento and Hellas Verona – the two worst performing teams in the Calcio since the beginning of the season. This game could be very important for Hellas Verona, while for Benevento is just a matter of honour.

Lazio hosts Juventus in a match from the 27th round of the Italian Serie A. Let’s have a look at this clash and we will bring you our vip soccer bets for it.

Both teams are currently in the Top 3 of the Serie A. Lazio are third with 52 points, while Juventus are second with 65 points, but also a game in hand. Right now both teams have different goals in front of them – Lazio want to keep their position and to qualify for the Champions League, while Juve’s goal is to beat Napoli for the first place and win the Scudetto once again.

Lazio have a record of 16 wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats since the beginning of the season. The Eagles have one point advantage in front of the 4th Inter, while the 5th Roma is just two points behind. All of this means that Lazio can’t feel sure about their final position in the Top 4. They still need to work to secure it.

In their last five games Lazio won twice, but also suffered three consecutive losses, which was a very bad run for Simone Inzaghi’s team. In the previous round Lazio enjoyed a 3-0 win over Sassuolo away from home.

Juventus are 4 points behind the leader Napoli, but how we said – with a game in hand. Juve’s match against Atalanta in the previous round was postponed due to bad weather.

Juve’s record in the Serie A right now shows 21 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats. The Old Lady is usually winning the Serie A without much competition, but now Napoli really stepped up their performance. Can they actually beat Juventus for the gold medals? We shall wait and see.

These are our vip soccer bets for the Serie A game between Lazio and Juventus.

Juventus defender Giorgio Chiellini will certainly miss the Italian Cup final against Milan. The reason for this is that he received a yellow card in the draw with Atalanta (1: 0) from the 1/2-final. This is his second card in the tournament, which leads to an automatic penalty for the next match.

Chiellini will be the only punished player for this match from both teams. On the other hand, Andrea Massiello from Atalanta and Stefan Radu from Lazio will have to face a penalty next season after their teams have dropped out of the race.

Meanwhile, Juventus midfielder Mirelle Pianic scored a fine of € 1,500 for a penalty shootout in the Atalanta match, for which he received a yellow card from the referee.
