Friday Games

We had single games in three leagues out of the five major leagues across Europe. These matches where played around 7pm-10pm. The matches are...

Spanish Laliga

Rayo Vallecano 2 : 0 Deportivo Alaves

German Bundesliga

Bayern Munich 2 : 2 Bayer Leverkusen

French Ligue 1

Paris Saint-Germain 2 : 3 Nice

Talks Review

The two most exciting fixtures for me took place in the french ligue 1 and bundesliga.

Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen settled the match with a draw after a late minute penalty was awarded to Leverkusen.

After this game, Leverkusen are currently sitting at the top of the table, followed by Bayern Munich.

England sensational striker Harry Kane scored his 4th bundesliga goal, setting a 4 out of 4 goal record for himself.

While in ligue1, Paris saint-germain surprisingly lost to Nice last night, after Terem Moffi showed the qualities of a good striker by netting twice and giving an assist. Although, France Star boy kylian Mbappe also netted twice, but it wasn't enough to rescue the former champions.

Nice currently sits at second while Psg sits third on the table.

Talks Review

As at the time of this write up, the EPL had began with an early kick off. Liverpool who are currently away are in action with wolves.

Matches to look out for in the EPl today are United-Brighton, west ham-City and Newcastle-brentford. We would see how possible united can come back from their previous defeat to the gunners. West ham has being relentless in their past few matches, can they stand up tall against pep side ?. The visibility of Newcastle has began to fade away this season, but lets see what they can do against the bees.

Matches to look out for in the Spanish league are barça-betis and Valencia-atletico.

Matches to look out for in the German bundesliga are Freiburg-dortmund and Leipzig-augsburg.

Matches to look out for in the Italian serie a should be all. Juventus is indeed a strong team, but lets see how they face their opponent today. The Milan derby is always an exciting fixture to look up to. These two sides are dominant, so the match is going to be interesting. As for Napoli, can they possibly bounce back from their horrible loss ?.

In the french ligue 1, we should possibly watch both matches.
