Manchester City – Juventus

Citizens defeated Chelsea at Saturday, they’re still contenders for the Premier title and seem to have a good atmosphere, despite some rumors. However, Mancini’s team already exited from Carling Cup and one more failure would be extremely difficult to explain to the boss. I expect a strong line-up tonight (could it be weak?) and serious approach. Juve are a big challenge and players will be eager to prove themselves (once more) on a big scene. Recent defensive worries don’t look too serious anymore, as Micah Richards has recovered from injury and will take his place at right-back. Shaun Wright and Mario Balotelli will be sidelined, but their positions are far from being critical.

Juve made a bleak start in Serie a with just 7 points from 5 opening games. Fortunately, they’re still just 3 points far from the top. Their defense line looks more than shaky, as they conceded 3 against Doria 3-3, Lech 3-3, Palermo 1-3 and 2 vs. Cagliari 4-2. All of those were at home and at last one, new embarrassment was avoid thankfully to Krasic who scored a hat-trick. On the paper their squad looks very strong, but their performances don’t give too much faith they can challenge for a title. Serie a will certainly be a priority over Europe and important thing is Juve have Inter on the corner (away, at Sunday). Luigi Delneri will be without injured Amauri and Quagliarella who isn’t registered for EL. Also, there’s possibility to some players be rested.

Europa League is a chance for City to get some silverware this season. They won’t get a title in Premier and already failed in Carling. Mancini must impress the bosses every day, while players are best motivated against strongest sides which Juve definitely is. Visitors haven’t impressing, lately. Weak start could turn into disaster in case of failure at Milano, European second stage could be reached even with a defeat tonight. Home win.

Atalanta - Palermo, 2-X ht/ft @ 17.00 bet365

Palermo need a win for Champions League,I expect them to lead at the half-time.But will be 4th only if Samp don't win.So,gamble is based on scenario Samp will win and Palermo will be devastated in the 2nd half and concede goal(s) for a draw.
Hardly to happen,but isn't impossible and wouldn't be the first time.

Other two

Lille Metropole - Olympique Marseille  

Lille plays much over the expectations this season. Instead a predicted, middle table place, in one moment they had an opportunity to fight for title! They're in excellent shape at home ground, with eleven wins from 16 games (4 draws and a single defeat). Two games without a win, PSG at home 0-0 and Saint Etienne, 1-2 on the road. With a win tonight, they would be just a point from Champions League place. Three key players have recovered. Lille will start with three players in attack.

After many years and disturbing seasons, Marseille squad has a chance to fight for title. Five league wins in a row. First place, two points more than Bordeaux, four than Lyonnais (already played the game, PSG at home 0-0), six rounds left. Taiwo, Bonnart and Rodriguez are out, while Niang is in doubt.

Both teams have strong attacks. And have to attack. Goals again, with excellent odds. Betfair offers 2.46,  Expekt 2.30. Over.

Rosario Central - Boca Juniors

I've found some very interesting info for this game. Shortly. Rosario is fighting to avoid relegation (the measure is 3 year standings), have a new boss and will go for a win tonight. Boca gave up from Clausura, ten points less than the leaders Velez Sarsfield, nine games left. They played their Copa Libertadores game in Ecuador, Deportivo Cuenca 0-1, at friday. Today have to travel again. Seven players won't play! Including the best, Riquelme, Palermo, Rodrigo Palacio and Sebastian Battaglia. Home side is rested and motivated. Oposite from Boca. The odds are lower than I expected, but think it worths a gamble bet. 10bet offers 3.02, Expekt  and the most of others, 2.50. Home win.
