This week matches

Blackpool vs Carlisle - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: England - FA Cup

Blackpool head into their FA Cup clash with Carlisle United with renewed confidence after a string of competitive performances in League One. In recent months, the Seasiders have shown resilience, particularly in their 4-0 victory over Burton Albion and a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Barnsley. Manager Neil Critchley has emphasized the importance of cup competitions as a way to build momentum, and the squad has responded with energy. The club also made headlines in October when they secured a loan deal for midfielder George Byers, adding depth to their midfield options. Bloomfield Road has been buzzing with anticipation, as fans see this fixture as a chance to progress further in the competition and showcase their attacking flair.

Carlisle United, meanwhile, have endured a challenging period in League Two, but their FA Cup journey offers a welcome distraction from domestic struggles. The Cumbrians recently battled to a 1-1 draw against Walsall and suffered a narrow 2-0 defeat to Stockport County, highlighting their inconsistency. However, they did manage to secure a morale-boosting 2-1 win over Doncaster Rovers in November, which lifted spirits among supporters. Off the pitch, Carlisle have been in the news following the appointment of Paul Simpson’s extended contract, a move designed to stabilize the club and provide continuity. Their fans remain hopeful that the FA Cup can serve as a platform for a spirited performance against higher-league opposition.

Boreham Wood vs Newport - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: England - FA Cup

Boreham Wood enter this FA Cup clash with Newport County in buoyant mood after a strong run of form in the National League. Over the past two months, Luke Garrard’s side have shown resilience and attacking flair, highlighted by their 2-1 victory over Halifax at Meadow Park where Lewis Richardson and Erico Sousa found the net. They also impressed with a 3-0 away win at Gateshead despite being reduced to ten men, with debutant Regan Booty scoring a spectacular long-range strike. Even their narrow defeat to Tamworth earlier in November did little to dent confidence, as the team quickly bounced back with consecutive wins. The club has also been active off the pitch, bringing in Zak Brunt in a record deal and securing Chelsea goalkeeper Ted Curd on loan, moves that underline their ambition to push for promotion while making a mark in cup competitions.

Newport County, meanwhile, have endured a turbulent period in League Two, marked by managerial upheaval and inconsistent results. The appointment of former Leicester City defender Christian Fuchs as manager in late November was a headline-grabbing move, as he replaced David Hughes following a poor run of form. Fuchs’s arrival coincided with a spirited 2-2 draw against Barrow, where Aaron Driscoll-Glennon and Courtney Baker-Richardson scored, offering glimpses of attacking promise. However, the Exiles have also suffered heavy defeats, including a 3-0 loss to Oldham and a 4-2 home defeat to Walsall, which exposed defensive frailties. Their FA Cup journey has been dramatic, with a penalty shootout win over Gillingham earlier in November keeping their hopes alive. The club’s supporters are eager to see whether Fuchs can steady the ship and inspire a turnaround in fortunes.

Brighton vs West Ham - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: England - Premier League

Brighton is in good shape this season and today occupies 7th place in the Premier League, 2 points behind the Big 4. Confidently, the Seagulls have only lost 2 of their last 10 league matches, for 5 wins and 3 draws. After winning against Brentford 2-1 and Nottingham Forest last weekend 0-2, they suffered a setback this week. In front of their fans, Brighton lost to Aston Villa after a spectacular 3-4 encounter. Having struggled since the start of the season, West Ham is currently 18th in the Premier League and is 2 points behind the first non-relegation team.

The London team will therefore have to work hard to avoid the descent, which would be a disaster in terms of the squad. The Hammers have shown more consistency in recent weeks. In fact, they have only conceded one setback in the last 5 days, for 2 victories and 2 draws. Beaten at home by Liverpool last weekend 0-2, West Ham then took a point at Manchester United this week 1-1.

Fulham vs Crystal Palace - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: England - Premier League

Fulham are currently 15th in the Premier League and are 6 points ahead of the first relegation team. The Cottagers have shown a beneficial resurgence in form recently, which has allowed them to move away from the red zone. Indeed, they have pocketed 3 victories in the last 5 days, for 2 defeats. After winning against Sunderland 1-0 and Tottenham last weekend 1-2, Fulham lost against Manchester City this week despite a good comeback 4-5. Author of a promising season last year, Crystal Palace continues its progress this season.

Auxerre vs Metz - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: France - Ligue 1

Auxerre's drought continues although there is improvement on the ground. Deprived of victory since September 21, the AJA ended a series of 4 defeats upon returning from the November break. The worst attack in Ligue 1 held Lyon to a 0-0 draw and did the same at Paris FC 1-1, scoring its first goal in 6 games on this occasion. It remains bottom of Ligue 1 but has come back to within 2 points of its opponent of the day, first relegated. Last in the elite for several weeks, the promoted Metz took a good breath of fresh air before the November break by stringing together 3 successes, his first of the season.

However, he has not won since. The Grenats gave in at the end of the suspense in Brest 3-2 two weeks ago and suffered another disappointment, at the opening of the previous day against Rennes 0-1. Back in the red zone, they are 3 points behind the first non-relegation club.

Le Havre vs Paris FC - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: France - Ligue 1

Just defeated by Lille 0-1 despite a second period played in numerical superiority, Le Havre moved to 14th at the end of the 14th day, with a margin of maneuver of 3 points on the first relegation. Didier Digard's team, beaten beforehand on the PSG pitch 3-0, remains in 4 games without a victory. His shortcomings on the ground are already forcing him to fight to maintain his position. Best promoted at the start of the season, Paris FC is losing momentum as the weeks go by.

Able to beat Monaco at the beginning of November in the Principality 0-1, the Ile-de-France club did not win any of the following 3 games. He was beaten by the smallest of margins by Rennes 0-1 and returned empty-handed from Lille 4-2 before seeing victory escape him last weekend against the red lantern Auxerre 1-1. The PFC was virtually 13th with 4 lengths ahead of the first relegation before the matches of the 15th day.

Lorient vs Lyon - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: France - Ligue 1

FC Lorient can boast of having intensified Nice's crisis last weekend 3-1. This victory, the first in two months, allowed him to leave the red zone without guaranteeing his safety. The Merlus were ahead of the first relegation by 3 lengths before the start of the 15th day, they who remained in draws against Toulouse 1-1 and Nantes 1-1. The outgoing Ligue 2 champion, however, stands out by conceding a lot of goals, two on average per match, which makes it the penultimate defense in the elite.

 The last week of competition can give hope to Lyon supporters as the end of year break approaches. With 5 matches remaining in all competitions, OL moved closer to the round of 16 of the Europa League thanks to their 0-6 performance against Maccabi Tel Aviv, then regained victory in the Championship a month later. The Rhone club took advantage of its numerical superiority in the second half to beat Nantes 3-0 and return to 6th position, 5 points from the podium.

Nice vs Angers - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: France - Ligue 1

The crisis is intensifying a little more in Nice. Beaten on Sunday in Lorient 3-1, the Riviera club now has 4 defeats in a row in the Championship after those against PSG 1-0, Metz 2-1 and Marseille with a much heavier score 1-5. Ejected from the top 9, relegated 7 lengths from the first European place and 12 from the podium, the Niçois, now 10th, suffered the lightning of the supporters who gave them a muscular welcome on their return from Lorient. This overflow could leave an afterthought for a team already weakened in the Europa League but its coach Franck Haise decided to stay after careful consideration. Including the European scene in its current results, Nice remains on 6 defeats in all competitions when it hosts Angers.

The SCO's first series of victories, which began when they returned from the break in Toulouse 0-1 after a first success gleaned against Auxerre 2-0, closed last weekend. Alexandre Dujeux's team suffered the law of Lens at home 1-2 and ranks virtually 12th after 14 days, with a cushion of 5 points on the first relegation. It is worth remembering that it tends to present a certain irregularity in its results over the weeks.

Dortmund vs Hoffenheim - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: Germany - Bundesliga

Still in the shadow of Bayern Munich for years, Borussia Dortmund undoubtedly does not have the means to claim the Meisterschale this season. However, with 25 points on the clock, the residents of Signal Iduna Park do not have to be ashamed of their record after the first 12 days but they are already considerably behind the Bavarian leader by 9 points. The Borussen were notably held to a draw by Hamburg 1-1 and Stuttgart 3-3 before moving forward last weekend in the clash against Bayer Leverkusen 1-2. Niko Kovac's players face this same team again on Tuesday in the 1/8 finals of the German Cup. For their part, Hoffenheim is not far from their opponent of the day since they are only 2 points behind before this duel.

Consequently, TSG has the opportunity to overtake Borussia if it wins today and therefore why not climb onto the podium. It would be a great reward for this team which has won 5 of its last 6 Bundesliga matches. After being able to defeat Sankt Pauli 0-3, Heidenheim 3-1, Wolfsburg 2-3 and Leipzig 3-1, Hoffe's players were held back by Mainz 1-1. But they quickly moved forward, winning against Augsburg 3-0 last weekend.

Hamburger SV vs Werder Bremen - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: Germany - Bundesliga

Far from being able to boast of being among the best teams in the Bundesliga, Hamburg would surely be delighted to be outside the red zone on the evening of the 34th day next May. For the moment, the promoted teams are on target for their priority objective of the season since they occupy 13th place in the ranking with a lead of 4 units over the first relegated team. In recent weeks, HSV had suffered 4 defeats in 5 days, including a final setback 15 days ago against Hamburg 1-0. But last weekend, Hamburg was able to smile again by winning with quite a bit of realism and at the end of added time against Stuttgart 2-1. This week, he will face Holstein Kiel in the German Cup.

For their part, Werder Bremen should not have to fear for their survival in the elite unlike their opponent of the day. Unfortunately for him, the visiting club already seems to be losing ground in the race for Europe since it is in 9th place in the ranking with 6 lengths behind the top 6. Too inconsistent, the Werderaner were still able to put together 5 matches without the slightest setback before losing at Leipzig 2-0 after the international break. Last weekend, the Bremois were held to a draw by Cologne in front of their home crowd 1-1.

Cagliari vs AS Roma - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Cagliari are currently 15th in Serie A and are 1 point ahead of the relegation zone. Unable to win in the last 9 days, 4 draws and 5 defeats, the Sardinians have been moving slowly for several weeks. After holding off Como 0-0 and Genoa 3-3, they logically lost at Juventus last weekend 2-1. Roma has made a good impression under the orders of Gian Piero Gasperini this season and today occupies 4th place in Serie A with 1 point behind the leader.

Unfortunately, the Louve club is still struggling against the big names. Indeed, during the last 7 days, the Giallorossi lost against Inter 0-1, AC Milan 1-0 and Napoli last weekend 0-1. Otherwise, they took over teams within their reach: Sassuolo 0-1, Parma 2-1, Udinese 2-0 and Cremonese 1-3.

Cremonese vs Lecce - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Back in the elite this season, the Cremonese are for the moment keeping a good distance from the fight so as not to go down. Indeed, the promoted team is currently 11th in Serie A and is 7 points ahead of the first relegated team. Jamie Vardy's teammates recently marked time by posting 3 losses against Juventus 1-2, Pisa 1-0 and Roma 1-3. On the other hand, they showed a very good reaction last weekend. Against all expectations, Cremonese won on the Bologna lawn 1-3.

Expected in the battle for maintenance, Lecce today occupies 14th place in Serie A with 3 points ahead of the red zone. The Puglia-based team is doing pretty well these days. Indeed, Eusebio Di Francesco's men have only lost in the lair of Lazio 2-0 in the last 4 days. Otherwise, they were held to a draw at home by Hellas Verona 0-0 and got the better of Fiorentina 0-1 and Torino last weekend 2-1.

Lazio vs Bologna - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Banned from recruitment during the off-season, Lazio still hopes to get involved in the fight for European folding seats in this 2025/2026 financial year. The Biancocelesti are currently 8th in Serie A and are 6 points behind 6th place. After a sluggish start to the championship, they found the right fuel by lining up 6 matches without a setback, 3 victories and 3 draws. Subsequently, Maurizio Sarri's men lost at Inter 2-0 and AC Milan last weekend 1-0. Between these two setbacks, they dominated Lecce at home 2-0.

Now considered a serious contender for the top places, Bologna now occupies 6th place in Serie A with 3 points out of the Top 4. Beaten in the lair of AC Milan in mid-September 1-0, the Rossoblu then went on to play 9 matches without a loss in the league, 6 wins and 3 draws. On the other hand, they put an end to their superb dynamic by being surprised, at home, by Cremonese last weekend 1-3.

Napoli vs Juventus - Sunday, 07 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Reigning Italian champion, Napoli is logically considered one of the favorites to take over this season. Antonio Conte's men are meeting expectations so far and today occupy 2nd place in Serie A with the same number of points as the leader. After going 3 games without a setback, 2 wins and 1 draw, they suffered a setback in Bologna 2-0. Napoli subsequently resumed their march forward with important successes against Atalanta 3-1 and at Roma last weekend 0-1. In the Champions League, Napoli is 20th and has a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. Eager to get involved in the fight for the Scudetto this season, Juventus is currently 7th in Serie A and concedes 5 units of spending on its opponent of the day.

Checkered results led to the dismissal of coach Igor Tudor at the end of October. The Bianconeri have regained color following this change, as evidenced by the current series of 5 matches without a setback, 3 victories and 2 draws. After being held to a draw by Torino 0-0 and Fiorentina 1-1, they responded by dominating Cagliari last weekend 2-1. This week, Juventus dominated Udinese in the round of 16 of the Italian Cup 2-0. 22nd in the Champions League, the Piedmontese team has a record of 1 victory, 3 draws and 1 defeat.
