Match Overview: Week 49
We are approaching another weekend of interesting football in Europe. In different countries, and therefore also different competitions, the best teams compete against each other in exciting matches. In this text you will find the most interesting matches from the Serie A, the Jupiler Pro League, the Bundesliga and the Premier League.
Friday December 8
Juventus was in the lead for a while after December 1, after it was able to beat Monza. Then Inter Milan won with a brilliant 0-3 against Napoli. The Bianconeri can therefore take the lead again if they can also beat Napoli. The team from Turin is in second place in Serie A, 2 points behind Internazionale. The Bianconeri play against the Azzurri from Naples. They are in 5th place with 24 points, the same as AS Roma. Napoli lost at home to Inter Milan on Sunday, December 3, a major blow in preparation for this match. They can count on Victor Osimhen, an ex-Charleroi player who was voted Player of the Year in Serie A on December 5.
Saturday December 9
Cercle Brugge and Antwerp play against each other in our own Jupiler Pro League. Antwerp feels the hot breath of no fewer than three teams on their neck, because Club Brugge, Cercle Brugge and Genk are 1 or 2 points away. With three points they would also overtake Ghent. Cercle Brugge, on the other hand, can jump over both Antwerp and Club Brugge if they get the three points. After this match, Antwerp must prepare to play at home against FC Barcelona in the Champions League.
Still in Italy, AC Milan plays on the field of Atalanta. Atalanta are now outside the top 5, but the three points would already help them make a big step forward. They also feel the hot breath of a number of other teams: Lazio Roma, Torino, Monza and Frosinone are 1 or 2 points away from them. For AC Milan, the three points are less urgent: they are 5 points behind Roma and Napoli. But with three extra points they come closer to Juventus, which is now 4 points away.
Dortmund will play PSG in the Champions League for the group win. In the Bundesliga they play against the team just above them, RB Leipzig, for fourth place. The two teams are only one point apart. Leipzig is also doing well in the Champions League and is already assured of wintering. The clubs played a mixed course in their last 5 matches, with alternating wins and losses.
Sunday December 10
Club Brugge could be out of the top 5 after this matchday, because both Cercle Brugge and Genk are only one point away. That’s why they have to win against KV Mechelen. Malinwa is in 10th place with 18 points, so the three points will also be very welcome for them. Club Brugge played against Standard on December 3, and won 2-0. The Mechelen players then faced STVV, losing 0-2.
Tottenham would like to retain their place in the top 5, but Newcastle will not miss their chance. They maintain their good run, with wins against Manchester United and Chelsea. They are doing slightly less well in the Champions League, but they can try to overtake PSG. Tottenham must get rid of their bad run, with losses against Wolverhampton, Chelsea and Aston Villa, and a draw with Manchester City.
Anderlecht did well against Westerlo, putting more pressure on leader Union. The Belgian ‘Clasico’ between the most famous clubs in Brussels and Wallonia presents them with a new challenge. If they lose, Ghent can only move within two points. If they win, they will come one step closer to the leading position. Standard also needs points, they are in 9th place with 20 points. If they lose, there are plenty of teams around the corner to take their place. Anderlecht managed to win 4 times in their last 5 matches, with only a draw against Ghent. Standard have lost 3 times in their last 5 matches, drawing against Mechelen and beating Genk.
