  • VPS - KTP Kotka
    When: 17:00
    Where: Finland. Veikkausliiga

    VPS
    VPS currently occupies 7th place in the table with 22 points and presents itself as a solid mid-table team. Noteworthy, however, is the series of four consecutive draws and only one win in the last five games. The team shows a certain strength in ball possession and combination play but has problems consistently breaking down the opponent's defense. Their matches are characterized by wing-oriented attacks, which often lack a decisive finish, leading repeatedly to draws. In 65% of their matches, both teams score, indicating an open style of play. VPS feels strong at home, but the repeated draws weaken their confidence in crucial moments.

    KTP Kotka
    KTP Kotka is in a precarious situation as the bottom team with only 14 points. The defensive problems are massive, with 48 goals conceded, reinforcing the negative image of a team barely able to stabilize at the back. Despite the poor form, KTP managed at least one win in the last five matches. Their games are very high scoring – in 80% of all games, goals exceed 2.5 – reflecting offensive outbursts and often chaotic defense. The team holds the ball but shows little punch going forward and defends with little intensity, which favors opponents' counterattacks.

    Injuries
    There are no reports of injured or suspended players for VPS or KTP. Both teams can therefore line up at full strength, promising a fair and open duel.

    Head-to-Head
    No current or relevant data is available on the history of direct encounters, so these have no influence on the assessment of the upcoming match.

    Match Prediction
    The available statistics and playing styles of both teams clearly indicate a high-scoring game. VPS often struggles to win matches but tends to both score and concede goals. KTP's defense is vulnerable, while their games are characterized by a high share of matches with many goals. This combination suggests at least three or more goals will be scored in this game. Bookmakers offer odds of 1.70 on a VPS win, which seems justified given their home strength and league position. Despite the recent series of draws, VPS will do everything at home to overcome this weak phase and gain points against a weak opponent.

    My tip: VPS win (1.70)
    Tip
  • Münster - Nürnberg
    When: 18:30
    Where: Germany. 2nd Bundesliga

    Münster
    Münster is in 14th place with only one point and has scored goals (3 in two games) as well as conceded many goals (4) in the previous matches. Notably, both teams have scored in every Münster game, highlighting their defensive weakness. Offensively, they show an aggressive playing style focusing on crosses and try to break down the opponents' defense by width. However, there is a lack of calmness and decisiveness in the penalty area, so chances are often not converted. Defensively, there are significant gaps, especially during transitions, which can lead to quick goals against. Münster should gain a bit more confidence with the home support, even though this has not yet been reflected in results.

    Nürnberg
    Nürnberg has had a disastrous start to the season: 16th place, zero points, and not a single goal after two games. Their offensive harmlessness is alarming as there have been hardly any good scoring chances or creative plays. The team appears clueless, the attackers are isolated, and the build-up play is sterile and lacks pace. Defensively, they have conceded two goals, mainly due to insufficient pressure and poor spatial organization. Away from home, without fan support, and with further absences in midfield and attack, improvement is hardly to be expected.

    Injuries
    Münster is missing Antonio Tikvic long-term due to an ACL tear, which further weakens their already fragile defense. Nürnberg has to do without Rafael Lubach (yellow card suspension), Caspar Jander (knee injury), and Michal Kukucka (calf muscle), which particularly hurts their already lacking attack and midfield.

    Head-to-head
    There is no current information on direct encounters between Münster and Nürnberg, so the analysis is mainly based on form, statistics, and the current condition of both teams.

    Match prediction
    Both teams are deeply in a seasonal crisis, but Nürnberg's offensive problems are more severe. Their attacking poverty and personnel absences make it very unlikely they will create many chances or even score goals in Münster. Münster scores few points but shows more offensive dynamism and will give everything at home for the win. Since Nürnberg poses hardly any offensive threat, the likelihood that Münster will at least not lose is very high. Bookmakers offer a very valuable tip with the double chance on Münster at 1.38, which should be taken advantage of. A safe bet on a Münster win or draw despite their defensive weaknesses is worthwhile here.

    My tip: Double chance Münster (1.38)
    Tip
  • Elversberg - Kaiserslautern
    When: 18:30
    Where: 2nd Bundesliga

    Elversberg
    Elversberg ranks 12th in the table with 3 points from two games. Their offensive and defensive record of 1:2 reflects a cautious approach at the start of the season. With a record of 1 win and 1 loss, they are pragmatic: focusing on a compact defense and quick transitions, although there is sometimes a lack of striking power and precision in attack. Their home strength plays an important role, supported by the local fans, which gives the team confidence.

    Kaiserslautern
    Kaiserslautern sits in 10th place with also 3 points and a goal record of 1:1. They also started solidly defensively, but lacked offensive creativity and punch. In the first matches, their attacks were often predictable and well read by opponents. The defense seems vulnerable to quick counters and long-range shots. Away from home, they lack the necessary security and playing strength.

    Injuries
    Elversberg must do without Jan Gyamerah, who is suspended. Kaiserslautern has three important absences: Kenny Prince Redondo (suspended), Ivan Prtajin (calf injury) and Hendrick Zuck (knee injury). Especially the absences in the offensive area significantly weaken Kaiserslautern and reduce their goal-scoring threat.

    Head-to-Head
    In the last four direct encounters, Elversberg has had the upper hand at home against Kaiserslautern with 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. The games were mostly high-scoring (3:2, 2:1, 1:1), but this only partially reflects the current cautious playing style of both teams.

    Match Prediction
    Although history points to high-scoring encounters, the current form and personnel absences suggest a cautious match with few goals. Both teams are defensively oriented, and especially Kaiserslautern’s offensive weaknesses do not promise strong goal-scoring qualities. Elversberg will rely on home advantage and a compact defense. The probability that the game stays under 3.5 goals is therefore high and offers good value.

    My tip: Under 3.5 goals (1.35)
    Tip
  • Amiens - Annecy
    When: 20:00
    Where: France. Ligue 2

    Amiens
    Amiens started the season with a dynamic kickoff and is currently in second place with 4 points. The team shows an offensive playing style, scoring on average 2.5 goals per game and relying on active pressing as well as quick transitions. However, the defense reveals weaknesses, as shown by the 3 goals conceded in two matches. Amiens' games are characterized by high goal totals, with both teams always scoring.

    Annecy
    Annecy, on the other hand, is currently in 16th place with only 1 point and has difficulties both offensively and defensively. The team tries to maintain defensive stability but has already conceded 4 goals. Offensively, it lacks penetration and finishing, but Annecy has demonstrated that they can at least occasionally score a goal, which should be important in the duel against the offensively strong Amiens.

    Injuries
    Currently, no injured or suspended players are known from either team. Both squads can appear at full strength.

    Head-to-head
    Information about direct encounters between Amiens and Annecy is missing or outdated, so there is no psychological or tactical influence from previous matches. This meeting represents a new challenge for both teams.

    Match prediction
    Despite the attacking style of both teams, this match is shaping up to be a low-scoring affair. Amiens have scored in every game so far but have struggled to convert chances in tighter matches. Annecy have the quality to create opportunities but are likely to approach the game with caution. Overall, the analysis points towards no more than two goals being scored, making the bet on under 2.5 goals (odds 1.65) an appealing choice.

    My tip: Under 2.5 goals (1.65)
    Tip
  • Paris Saint-Germain - Angers
    When: 20:45
    Where: France. Ligue 1

    Paris Saint-Germain
    Paris Saint-Germain, currently in 6th place with 3 points from one game, started the season with a hard-fought 1-0 victory. Although they controlled the ball as expected, there was a lack of breakthrough power and precision in their attacks. Crosses often ended ineffectively, and while the central zone was densely occupied, there was insufficient forward movement. Defensively, PSG appeared solid, hardly allowing dangerous actions by the opponent. Tactically, they use a 4-3-3 system, focusing on ball possession and wing attacks, utilizing the speed of their wingers there. At home in the Parc des Princes, they appear particularly dominant, giving them a significant home advantage.

    Angers
    Angers occupies 7th place with also 3 points from a 1-0 win. The team values discipline and organization in defense. They defended compactly, closed spaces, and forced the opponent into cautious attacks. Tactically, they are likely to line up in a 4-4-2 or 5-3-2 formation, focusing on a tight defense and orderly build-up play. Offensively, they mainly rely on counterattacks or set-pieces. Especially away, they act cautiously, aiming primarily not to be defeated and to complicate every attack from the favorites.

    Injuries
    Paris Saint-Germain will be without Senny Mayulu due to an adductor injury. Angers have no reported injuries and can field their optimal squad.

    Head-to-Head
    The direct record clearly favors Paris Saint-Germain. In the last five meetings, they have always won against Angers, sometimes decisively (e.g., 4-2, 3-0) or with close results (1-0, 2-0). Although Angers occasionally managed to score goals, they ultimately achieved neither a win nor a point. This shows that PSG always finds the right solution against Angers’ compact defense.

    Match Prognosis
    Paris Saint-Germain is the clear favorite; however, an open, high-scoring shootout is not expected. Angers will present themselves strongly in defense and try to keep the game tight, which limits PSG’s attacking opportunities. The last direct duels with often low scores of up to 3 goals and the defensive stability of Angers suggest that the game will be entertaining but not high-scoring. Bookmakers favor Under 4.5 goals (1.53 odds) indicating a rather controlled match flow, which aligns well with this analysis and represents a safe bet.

    My tip: Under 4.5 goals (1.53)
    Tip
  • Bohemians Dublin - Cork City
    When: 20:45
    Where: Ireland. Premier League

    Bohemians Dublin
    Bohemians Dublin are in second place in the standings with 43 points. With a record of 13 wins, 4 draws, and 10 losses and a goal difference of 33:26, they show a fairly balanced performance. However, the last five games with only one win, three draws, and one loss raise questions about their current form. The team usually plays dominantly, trying to control the game and methodically create chances, but occasionally shows problems with chance conversion. The tactical setup, probably a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1, focuses on possession and build-up play, but sometimes lacks incisiveness against opponents using a defensive blockade. Defensively they are solid but occasionally lose organization against quick counterattacks. At home they play very confidently and put the opponent under early pressure.

    Cork City
    Cork City is at the bottom of the table with only 19 points. Their record of 3 wins, 10 draws, and 14 losses with a goal difference of 27:46 documents significant defensive weaknesses. The last five matches brought only one win, one draw, and three losses. The team often appears defensively disoriented, with gaps between the lines and error-prone central defenders. Quick counterattacks regularly put the defense under pressure. Their play is open and often features a high number of goals, but it often lacks striking power upfront. The tactical formation could be 4-4-2 or 4-5-1, intended to provide stability but frequently failing due to weak defensive performance. Away from home they lack necessary stability and often appear helpless.

    Injuries
    Bohemians have one injured player, Alex Lacey, of unknown severity, which likely won't have a major impact. Cork City has significantly more serious injury issues with long-term absentees like Cathal O'Sullivan (cruciate ligament tear) and Ruairi Keating (Achilles tendon rupture); additionally, Fiacre Kelleher and Greg Bolger are missing. These absences weaken the already fragile defense and severely complicate team organization.

    Head-to-Head Encounters
    Bohemians clearly dominate recent direct encounters against Cork City, especially at home: they have won three of the last five matches, including two clean sheets (2:0, 1:0) and an impressive 4:0 home win. Cork City has won only twice, both times narrowly and at home. The statistics point to a clear home advantage and stable superiority of Bohemians against this opponent.

    Match Prediction
    The combination of the better league position, Bohemians’ home strength, the problems and injuries at Cork City, and the direct encounter statistics suggests a controlled victory for the hosts. Although several goals can generally be expected due to Cork City's very vulnerable defense, Bohemians should control the match and not concede too many goals. This suggests a game with a modest number of goals. The bet "Under 3.5 Goals" at odds of 1.45 appears very sensible here, as many games against this opponent and under similar conditions rarely show a high goal flood.

    My tip: Under 3.5 Goals (1.45)
    Tip
  • Droheda United - St. Patricks
    When: 20:45
    Where: Ireland. Premier League

    Droheda United
    Droheda United stands with 42 points in 4th place and shows remarkable consistency, characterized by many draws. With 10 wins, 12 draws, and 5 losses, the team has a very solid defensive performance, conceding on average only 0.93 goals per game. Tactically, they often rely on a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 system that tightens the middle and makes it harder for the opponent to play. Offensively, however, they sometimes lack punch, especially the wings often appear isolated and ineffective. The defense is robust, although occasionally chances from distance are allowed to the opponent. Their home strength and balance make them a dangerous adversary.

    St. Patricks
    St. Patricks ranks 6th with 38 points and presents itself very inconsistently. They are emotional and can experience both great highs and deep lows. Their system resembles a 4-3-3 with a focus on fast wing play, but often lacks precision in finishing and punch. The defense appears vulnerable, especially on counters where large gaps often open up. The pressing seems inconsistent and leaves space for opponents. The offensive punch is heavily restricted without key players, making attacking difficult.

    Injuries
    Droheda United has to do without Paul Doyle due to a thigh injury, which limits midfield rotation. St. Patricks faces a bigger problem with three missing key players: Romal Palmer (thigh), Aidan Keena (key striker, unknown injury), and Zach Elbouzedi (shoulder injury). Especially the absence of Keena, their most important attacking player, significantly weakens their offense.

    Head-to-Head
    No current or relevant information on direct encounters is available, allowing a neutral view on both teams' current form.

    Match Prediction
    Unexpectedly, bookmakers see St. Patricks as favorites, although they are significantly weakened without their key players and are playing away. Droheda United, on the other hand, shows more stability and defensive security at home. Due to St. Patricks’ thin offense and Droheda’s defensive style, we expect a low-scoring game. The probability that both teams combined score fewer than 2.5 goals is high. Therefore, the tip on "Under 2.5 Goals" with the good odds of 1.55 is highly recommended.

    My Tip: Under 2.5 Goals (1.55)
    Tip
  • Woterschfort - Sligo Rovers
    When: 20:45
    Where: Ireland. Premier League

    Woterschfort
    Woterschfort currently holds a mediocre seventh place with 34 points, recording 10 wins, 4 draws, and 13 losses with a goal difference of 32:46. The team shows some instability, scoring on average just over one goal per game while conceding nearly two goals. In the last five matches, they had two wins, one draw, and two losses. Especially at home, Woterschfort plays offensively aggressive with high pressing and an attacking 4-3-3 formation that heavily involves the wingers. Defensively, however, the team shows weaknesses, particularly against fast counterattacks and in central defense. This often leads to conceding goals and gives the matches an open character.

    Sligo Rovers
    Sligo Rovers rank ninth with 26 points, having recorded 7 wins, 5 draws, and 15 losses, with a goal difference of 33:46. The team is fighting to avoid relegation and has a similar form to Woterschfort (two wins, one draw, two losses in the last five games). Sligo presents itself as an unpredictable team that can shine on the road with fast, vertical play and counterattacks, but struggles to create chances against compact defenses. Defensively, they often lack discipline and organization, making them vulnerable to quick attacks. Their preferred formation is 4-4-2 focusing on transition play.

    Injuries
    Woterschfort is missing Kacper Radkowski (ankle injury) and Matty Smith (knee injury), which limits squad depth. Sligo Rovers have to do without Oskar van Hattum, whose injury nature is unknown but hardly affects the main squad.

    Head-to-Head
    The recent direct encounters between Woterschfort and Sligo Rovers have been a constant exchange of high-scoring goal festivals: 0:4, 2:3, 4:1, 1:0, 2:0, and 4:1. These matches are characterized by many goals and open games. Offensively, both teams are always dangerous, but defensively vulnerable, which usually results in both teams scoring and a very dynamic game flow.

    Match Prediction
    Due to the offensive orientation of both teams, their defensive susceptibility, and the exciting recent history, we can expect a high-scoring match. Woterschfort will play at home with a lot of pace and pressing but will again show defensive gaps. Sligo Rovers will exploit these spaces and also score at least one goal. The probability that both teams score at least once is very high. The betting odds of 1.63 for "Both Teams to Score: Yes" offer great value given the often high-scoring encounters. An exciting and offensive game is expected, with goals almost guaranteed on both sides.

    My tip: Both Teams to Score: Yes (1.63)
    Tip
  • Derby County - Bristol City
    When: 21:00
    Where: England Championship

    Derby County
    Derby County is currently in a real crisis. The team occupies the bottom place in the table and has not gained any points from the first two games. Despite scoring four goals, the defense suffers massively; eight goals conceded show that the defense practically does not exist. The team tries to operate in a 4-3-3 system but appears chaotic and without clear structure. The offensive actions are more individual exceptions than the product of a well-thought-out play. Even the home advantage offers no stability, as form is very weak with two consecutive losses, and every game ends with more than 3.5 goals—primarily due to their defensive weakness.

    Bristol City
    Bristol City, on the other hand, presents itself as a more stable and focused team. Sitting in 4th place, they start with 4 points and a goal difference of 4:1. The defense is well organized and compact, supported by a flexible system (likely 3-5-2 or 4-2-3-1). Offensively, they are not spectacular but effective, utilizing both the wings and central breakthroughs. Even away from home, they maintain their structure and play in a controlled manner, making them appear as the clearly superior team in the matchup.

    Injuries
    Derby County struggles with enormous injury misfortune—several key players are out for months, significantly reducing squad strength and limiting training possibilities. In contrast, Bristol City has only one player with a long-term injury, giving them a clear advantage in terms of personnel strength and stability.

    Head-to-Head Matches
    Looking at recent encounters, Bristol City often comes out on top, mostly with narrow victories. Although Derby County managed a clear 3-0 win at the beginning of the 2024/2025 season, Bristol City has dominated subsequent matchups, often in low-scoring games. The current situation with major injuries at Derby makes these statistics even more decisive in favor of Bristol City.

    Prediction for the Game
    Bookmakers set Derby County and Bristol City with nearly equal odds, which is surprising given Derby’s massive problems. Due to the poor defense, many injuries, and current form, a weakness of the home team is expected. Bristol City appears stable, well-coordinated, and well-prepared for the away game. The safe option is therefore the bet on the "Double Chance Bristol City" (win for Bristol City or draw). Despite a high chance of winning, this still offers an attractive odd of 1.35 and is thus a recommended betting tip.

    My Tip: Double Chance Bristol City (1.35)
    Tip
  • Real Betis - Deportivo Alavés
    When: 21:30
    Where: Spain. Primera División

    Real Betis
    The season start for Real Betis was rather disappointing. With only one point from a draw and a goal difference of 1:1, the team has not yet found its usual rhythm. The central axis, the heart of their play, is currently not functioning, leading to a chaotic appearance on the field. Possession feels sterile, without clear progress or targeted goal threats. The defense shows vulnerability against fast attacks, while offensive creativity suffers greatly. Wing plays often end without successful finishes, and there is a lack of aggressive pressing, giving the opponent too much space. Despite home advantage, the major personnel absences are expected to have a significant impact on performance.

    Deportivo Alavés
    In contrast, Deportivo Alavés started the season with a win and currently holds a solid sixth place with three points. The team presents itself well organized and tactically disciplined, with a clear focus on a compact defense and quick counterattacks. They act pragmatically and use their players’ strengths effectively, especially down the wings, where technique and pace pose threats. The defense remains stable and allows the opponent little space, with high pressing also used on occasion. The overall attitude reflects strong fighting spirit and good preparation for the match.

    Injuries
    Real Betis is struggling with numerous serious injuries that weaken the team significantly: Isco is out until November due to a broken calf bone, an immense loss for creativity and build-up play. Additionally, Abde Ezzalzouli is sidelined with an unknown injury, Giovani Lo Celso with muscle problems, and Marc Roca with a foot injury. These absences hit all parts of the team hard and complicate forming a stable and effective gameplay. Deportivo Alavés, on the other hand, according to current information, is almost fully fit and available, giving them a major advantage in lineup and during the match.

    Head-to-Head
    In the last five encounters, Real Betis has not managed to win against Deportivo Alavés. The record of two draws and three losses, including a clear 1-3 home defeat, shows a clear trend. Alavés regularly succeeds in exploiting Betis’ weaknesses and disturbing their game rhythm. This ongoing dominance speaks to Alavés’ tactical superiority and fitting concept in this direct comparison.

    Match Prediction
    In summary, despite the home advantage, Real Betis will face difficulties due to numerous injury-related absences and a lack of team harmony. Deportivo Alavés appears as a well-coordinated and disciplined team with strong defensive behavior and effective offensive actions. The bookmakers' odds seem to underestimate Betis’ current situation, while Alavés convinces as an underdog with tactics and physicality. Therefore, the bet on a Real Betis win at odds of 1.83 is an interesting and risk-optimized recommendation, as Betis will seek their first chance for improvement on home ground and the probability of gaining a point is high.

    My tip: Real Betis win (1.83)
