Supercopa: Final| Real Madrid vs Barcelona: prediction and best odds
To the delight of many, the final of the Super Cup 2023 will feature the two most legendary teams in Spanish soccer: Real Madrid vs Barcelona. The classic will take place on January 15 at 20:00, Spanish time, at the King Fahd Stadium in Saudi Arabia.

Both teams reach the final after drawing in regulation time in the semifinals with their opponents, and taking the pass to the finals thanks to penalties. What is clear from this match is that the blaugranas will fight to remain as the team with the most Super Cup titles and that the merengues will give everything to tie Xavi Hernandez's team in titles in this competition.

The statistics for this match may be somewhat confusing: the Blaugranas arrive with a better score in the current edition of LaLiga de España and a better historical run in the Supercopa. However, Barcelona have lost in recent Super Cup matches against Real Madrid. Knowing the offensive power of each team, my bets go on both scoring.

=> Dan Ige win 1.76 odds.

Damon Jackson is a tall comrade guy and will have a hard time translating a short Dan Ige who has good defense against holds and takedowns. In wrestling, however, Ige's level is not very high, but the defense is not bad. In the stand, Ige will have a big advantage, he has a better technical arsenal and performing skills. And Damon Jackson opens up too often and concedes a lot, especially at close range, and does not have a good reaction and sense of distance.

Bit of a punt this one but Tottenham V's Arsenal games can have some crazy score lines and I feel that this game could be one of those games. You only have to look at past games between these two to see there is often goals and sometime 5, 6 or 7. So that is what I am going for,with an inform and scoring Harry Kane, Son also has rediscovered his scoring boots and an Arsenal team that is flowing and playing nice football I am pretty sure this one has goals!

My Prediction is over 3.5 goals @2.75 on Bet365

NHL

Edmonton VS Vegas 

Observation- Edmonton is 23-18-3 and Vegas is 28-13-2. Both teams have over 3 goals a game average , Edmonton is slightly closer to 4 with 3.7 goals per game. Edmonton is playing a backup goalie Calvin pickard whom has no stats for this season. Using a backup goalie against vegas is a bad idea as they are 4th in scoring in the league and lead their division. Both teams are bad at penalty killing which is where most goals are scored in games, but the opposite on when the team is on the powerplay as Edmonton is 1st in scoring in the league on power-plays and vegas is 7th.  So with Edmonton with a backup goalie = easyier to score for vegas and Edmonton scoring regardless, especially on power plays this game will go over. The projected exact total for the game is best odds for 8 goals which is normally a good thing to look at when picking total. 

Prediction is over 7.5 for 2.85 pinnacle

Roma has been a mixed bag in recent games. On the one hand, the team looks pretty solid in all respects and lost only once in the last five matches in the Lazio derby, but during this period there was only one victory over the modest Bologna. This cannot but worry the mentor and fans of the Roma club, which has so far left the European Cup zone, but is only three points behind the top four. Fiorentina are two positions below their opponent, but in terms of points, this distance is quite noticeable. Thy are as much as eight points behind the Roma, which is considered a very decent handicap for Italy. The Florentines are also not particularly pleased with the victories of their fans lately, and it will not be easy for them to cling to a positive result in the capital.
In my opinion, there is a favorite in this match and that is Roma.

My betting pick will be Roma win 2.07 odds.

1. Today, Tottenham will play against their neighbor and leader of the Premier League. The North London Derby will be the 193rd in a row, while the hosts are going through hard times. The recent crushing 4-0 victory over Crystal Palace and a tough 2-0 home defeat to Aston Villa just a few days earlier.

2. The match against the Gunners ended badly for the Spurs in the first round, when the Hotspurs lost 1-3 on the road. After this match, the Londoners lost in 4 out of 5 matc. However, there is already news about new investors from Qatar, which will allow the club to seriously strengthen the squad.

3. League leaders Arsenal failed the first match of a difficult January with a 0-0 draw at home to Newcastle. There's a huge incentive a win both here and at home against Manchester United next weekend will confirm their outstanding run to their first league title since 2003/04. The record-breaking nature of their season was further highlighted when the FA Cup win over Oxford United was their 20th win in 25 games in all competitions at that time of year.

4. For 17 matches of the current championship, they got 14 wins and two draws, which corresponds to 44 points.

Bet: Arsenal win
Odd: 2.27

My initial bet would be a draw or 6 goals total, 3 for each team.

Benfica never gets tired of delighting its fans with successful performances this season. After 15 games, they have 40 points in their assets, being located at the 1 position in Primeira Liga. Already 13 wins with 1 defeats and 1 draws have already been recorded in our statistics. Benfica is especially regular during the period between 76-90 matches. They have already scored 6 goals, so in this part of the match her opponents should be more concentrated in defense. On average, they score 2.5 goals this season, while conceding 0.7 goals per game. Let's see how the game goes in this match.

Many teams can only dream of leadership in Primeira Liga, while Sporting currently occupies the 4 line in the table with 28 points. For 15 they have won 9 wins, 1 draws and 5 losses. On average, this team now scores 1.9 goals per game, conceding, in turn, 1.1 goals. In total, 1.9 is usually required for a given club to realize their scoring chance, and most actively they spend the segment 31-45, in which they have already scored 9. Obviously, with such statistics, they deservedly come in first place.

 My bet is: Over 3 goals with 2.580 odds
