No Premiership games Friday night but there are two big games in the Championship. Both the top two teams are in action but the match I am going with is Sheffield Utd. They are playing Hull and have the home advantage! This should be a pretty comfortable win for Sheffield who are in good winning form, the only thing is that Hull have not lost a game in their last 5 games either. This puts a small amount of doubt in my head but I think they will take all 3 points from this game. Sheffield in 2nd place, Hull in 16th place in the Championship. My pick is Sheffield Utd win @1.61 on Bet365

NHL

Detroit VS Vegas 

Observation - Vegas is first in their division with a 28-15-2 record and Detroit is 18-17-8. Vegas has a 3.2 goals a game average against the Detroit's high goals against average of 3.4. Detroit also has a 3.10 goals a game average themselves. The last match up was a 4-1 victory for Vegas. Both teams have low penalties per game but when there is a penalty both teams rank 16th and 20th which means both teams lets in goals on powerplays often.

Prediction is Vegas to win and over 5.5  for 2.60

9 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses - those indicators that allowed Sporting to score 29 points and take the 4 place in Primeira Liga. On average, they score 2.7 goals at home, but, alas, they lack this to achieve maximum results. Their opponent needs to be as concentrated as possible with 16-30 for a minute, since at this time Sporting has already scored 9 goals. And they, in turn, are more vigilant with 7 minutes, since they missed 1.1 during this period of time.

As a result of 16 matches within Primeira Liga, Vizela has earned 21 points, and at the moment this team is at a fairly solid 8 place in the table. As for statistics, in away games they score on average 1.1 goals. While the best time is to spend the segment with 0-15 having already scored 8 goals. Most often, their goal hits with 4 minutes - 4 goals. In total club missed 15 goals But these are all statistics, let's see what they show on the field.

 My bet: Only one team to score and Sporting to win with 2.090 odds

=> Frances Tiafoe win 1.934 odds

Karen Khachanov vs Frances Tiafoe. I haven’t seen Khachanov for a long time, but in general, I don’t like his game very much, he was kind a miss player, he flew off this year to Draper, who is weaker than Tiafoe for sure, and Tiafoe beats everyone this year, he dealt with the Chinese playing showman even cut in, personal matches on hard it wasn’t, as for me, in this match, the American is more likely the favorite and the odds on him are slowly but surely falling and most likely this trend will continue, Tiafoe is just good now and he should still be the favorite in this match 👌🏽.

The German Championship is back after a break. And immediately an interesting match awaits us - Leipzig against Bayern. In addition to having big names, the teams are also in the top three of the Bundesliga table. The Munich team went into the break as the leaders of the tournament. During the first half of the season, the club sometimes lost points, but retained the first rank. Nowthey  have a four-point lead over second place. But Leizpig is third in the league and six points behind Bayern. Therefore, success in this match will allow them to close the gap with the leader.

Bayern have a problem after the 2022 World Cup - goalkeeper Manuel Neuer was injured during the holidays and flew out before the end of the season. Now the club is actively looking for a replacement. Perhaps this will affect the performance in the match with Leipzig.

My betting pick will be still Bayern win 1.862 odds.

Bayern Munich have won the last four official matches they have played against RB Leipzig, scoring 3 or more goals in each of them.

These have been the results of their five most recent meetings:

Leipzig 3-5 Bayern Munich (German Supercup 2022).

Bayern Munich 3-2 Leipzig (Bundesliga 21/22)

Leipzig 1-4 Bayern Munich (Bundesliga 21/22)

Leipzig 0-1 Bayern Munich (Bundesliga 20/21)

Bayern Munich 3-3 Leipzig (Bundesliga 20/21)

After their last league win against Schalke 04 by 0-2, Bayern Munich have now won six league games in a row.

In addition, Nagelsmann's side have scored the most goals in the Bundesliga this season (49) and have taken the most shots on goal (316).

Their opponents, Leipzig, won 1-2 away against Werder Bremen on the last league matchday and go into this game on a run of 4 wins and 1 draw.

Bearing in mind the statistics, I will bet on the number of goals to be higher than 3.25.
