Premier League this Saturday and lots of games to chose from but I am gong for one of the less important matches for title hopefulls anyway. Nottingham Forest V's Crystal palace and the bookies are thinking that this is going to be a low scoring game but I think this match has goals in it. Forest are starting to fight for every point and need to if they want avoid relegation and Palace will be looking to secure all 3 points against the bottom of the table side. This is a risky pick though as both teams have only scored 25 between them this season but there defensive record is though is terrible both letting in way more goals than they have scored. I think this could be like a 3-3 or 4-2 scoreline so lets hope we see goals. Pick Over 2.5 goals @2.20 on Bet365

Lokomotiv still cannot find its game in the first half of the season, they looks very clumsy in defense and is currently in the bad zone. However, in the last round, the team managed to get a draw against Ural on its field and looked pretty in attack, scoring two goals. The need for three points will clearly motivate them in the derby and drive them forward, while the native stands will provide the players with proper support. As for Spartak, everything here is much more solid both in terms of the quality of football and in the results of the club. They are trying not to let the champion into a serious gap and are actively chasing in the table, not going very far. The team looks good in all respects and is distinguished by dedication on the field in every game, which sometimes they lacked before. However, an easy walk at the RZD Arena is clearly not expected, given the difficult position of the opponent. 
My betting pick will be both team to score yes 1.7 odds.

Mouz main star: frozen, rating 1.24.

Outsiders - MOUZ Match Prediction: 
"The Outsiders are going through the tournament as confident as possible. They both closed out the challengers stage with a 3-1 score, and in the legends stage they lost the first meeting in exactly the same way, and then they have closed out three games in a row in a blowout. In the quarterfinals, Fnatic also couldn't counter anything against the Bears: 16-11, 16-8. "Mouz" are also from the challenger stage, but they finished 3-2 in both parts of the tournament. But they were able to create a sensation in the quarterfinals. They played with the Russians from Cloud9 who were considered favorites of the Majors. And after losing their own Inferno it seemed that everything was decided: 11:16. But the Russians couldn't make a comeback on the home Overpass, losing two stupid rounds to the Pistols: 16:13, and then the Mice already got Enchanted on morale: 16:9. 

This meeting would be the third for the teams in this tournament. "The Outsiders won in the Legends BO3 format and the Mice BO1 format in the contenders' stage. And here is the deciding game that will determine the finalist for this year's main tournament. "The Mice are too young to regularly produce spectacular games. That was evident even in the group stage, when the teams couldn't shut down opponents they could handle. "The Outsiders, on the other hand, were already in the final major. In 2019 in Berlin while still with the Vanguard, Jame and Co. sensationally made it to the finals, where they lost to the undefeated Astralis. Now the team has grown and gained experience, so these "Mice" should not be a serious problem for them.

THE MATCH WILL START IN EXACTLY  24 HOURS.
BELOW YOU CAN SEE THE EXACT CET (CENTRAL EUROPEAN TIME) AT THE TIME OF PUBLICATION OF THIS FORECAST.

1. This season, 3 teams are downgraded, so the current position in the table can be called terrible for the club. Zulte Waregem was already on the verge of loss last year, but managed to avoid it. This season, they are unlikely to be so lucky, because everything is going down. At the moment, the they scored 11 points in 15 rounds.

2. 4 match ago, Zulte Waregem had a holiday. The team won for the first time in two and a half months. They met Kortrijk on the road (3:1). After that, they managed to defeat Anderlecht (3:2). However, in the last two games, the team returned to its normal state. The team lost to Ostend away and Standard at the home stadium, which is why it still remains in last place. Playing with a team from Liege is generally a laugh. They missed a draw with 10 minutes left in normal time when Standard threw them three goals in a row.

3. This season of the Belgian championship, Eupen is one of the main underdogs and contenders for loss, which is proved by the very unsatisfactory results of the team - twelve points scored and 15th line in the table.

4. Last week, management fired Bernd Stork. Therefore, in this game, the coach will be replaced by his assistant. Apparently the club felt that they needed a new impetus to bring the team out of a critical situation.

5. Eupen in his last match in the championship of Belgium met with Standard. The fight ended with a score (2:0) in their favor. In the six previous matches of the tournament, Eupen won only two victories over Leuven (4: 2) and just with the Liege club, while all other matches ended in defeat. Until the last game of the championship in each of the five previous matches with the participation of guests, the performance exceeded two goals.

Bet: Total over 2.5 goals
Odd: 1.66

Wolverhampton vs Arsenal

The match will be held within the framework of the English Premier League. It will be interesting to find out which of the clubs will be the winner.

The Round 16 clash between Wolverhampton and Arsenal will take place at the Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton. The teams are at diametrically opposite ends of the standings, the home team is trying to get out of the relegation zone, and the guests are trying to keep the lead in the championship.

The Wolves managed to score only eight goals with 22 conceded. It is worth noting that the club's management has decided on the head coach – Julen Lopetegui has been appointed, who is tasked with pulling the team out of the relegation zone.

The Gunners did not waste their energy on playing in the English League Cup, although they outplayed the opponent in many key indicators – 1:3 with Brighton in the 1/16 final. In the championship in the last round, Arteta's wards played a very difficult match, but managed to come out victorious – 1-0 with Chelsea. The hero of the confrontation was the defender Gabriel, who scored in the 63rd minute.

 My bet: Both teams to score with 1.925 odds

St Louis VS Vegas --starts--  Nov 12 2022, 11:00 PM (atlantic time)

observation- so vegas is leading the league right now with 13 wins and only 2 loses and St louis is 4-8-0. Vegas is averaging 4 goals a game while the goals against them average is  2 goals ...wow.. St louis has a 2 goals average and there goals against are 4 so opposite each other  lol,  With the way vegas has been playing they are almost unstoppable this year and i would even go as far as to say it will be them to take home the cup for their first time as they are a new team.  Vegas's goalie Logan Thompson is playing his best year ever with a 2.8 goals against average and a 0.925 save percentage ( which is crazy 15 games into season). The last matchup they played was a 7-4 victory for vegas, this game wont go as high as vegas's goalie is to hot. 

Prediction is vegas to win at a even 1.50
