This week matches

Morocco vs Comoros - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Africa - Africa Cup of Nations

4th in the last World Cup and qualified for the next edition in the United States next summer, this CAN, which Morocco of course wants to win, will serve somewhere to prepare the troops for Group C, made up of Brazil, Scotland and Haiti. The Moroccans have only won the CAN once in their history, in 1976. Finalist in 2004, since then, nothing more for Walid Regragui's gang. Playing at home in the competition, Morocco will have to do better than the round of 16 in the previous edition. Remember that the Moroccans won their 8 qualifying matches for the World Cup by scoring 22 goals and only 2 conceded. This is only the 2nd edition of the African Cup of Nations in which the Comoros are taking part.

Before that, they were either ineligible or simply not qualified. In 2021, for its baptism of fire, the Comoros did well by reaching the round of 16 but were eliminated at this stage of the competition. In 2023, this selection did not obtain its ticket to participate in the competition. It's time for revenge for the Comorian selection which still had a very good qualifying campaign for the World Cup, finishing fourth in its group with a total of 15 points to its non-qualified purse all the same.

Aston Villa vs Manchester Utd - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: England - Premier League

For Aston Villa, important defender Mings and replacement midfielder Barkley remain stuck in the infirmary. Also, defensive executives Emiliano Martinez (goalkeeper) and Pau Torres (central defender) are uncertain. Against Arsenal, winger Buendia (4 goals and 2 assists in PL) was the hero of the match by scoring after added time. He is applying to start in the offensive sector where Rogers (3 goals and 3 assists in PL), Watkins (3 goals in PL) and Malen (4 goals in PL) can appear. Former Marseillais Kamara continues his good performances in midfield while Belgian international Tielemans also plays a leading role. For Manchester United, senior defenders Maguire and De Ligt remain out this Monday evening.

In addition, striker Sesko (2 goals in PL) is announced as uncertain (resumption), like the 3 Mancunians called to the CAN: Mbeumo (6 goals in PL), the starting right piston Amad Diallo and the executive defender Mazraoui. A priori, Man U managed to negotiate a later start than December 15 (deadline for making players available for selection) and the three men should start. Strong man of the Red Devils, captain Bruno Fernandes (4 goals and 6 assists in PL) highlighted himself with a double on the last day. Attackers Mbeumo (6 goals in PL) and Mount (3 goals in PL) also found the net. The attacking trio was completed by Brazilian international Matheus Cunha (1 goal and 1 assist in PL).

Auxerre vs Monaco - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: France - Coupe de France

It will not be easy to validate his stay with Auxerre this season. Despite a rather interesting quality of play, Christophe Pélissier's men find themselves in difficulty in the Ligue 1 standings and they will spend the holidays as play-offs, 3 lengths behind the first non-relegation team, Le Havre. After holding off Lyon 0-0 and Paris FC 1-1, the Burgundians carried out an excellent operation by winning against FC Metz 3-1, thus ending a series of 9 unsuccessful matches. But last Sunday, AJA was very poorly paid by losing at the end of a crazy match against Lille 3-4 during a game where it did not concede many situations to its disadvantage. For its part, AS Monaco cannot be satisfied with its performance at mid-season.

If they ensured the minimum in the Champions League by winning a very valuable victory this week against Galatasaray which allows them to appear among the first 24 in the ranking and to glimpse qualification for the play-offs, the players of the Principality disappoint in Ligue 1. As proof, they are only in 9th place in the ranking after their new defeat suffered at the Vélodrome last Sunday 1-0, a week after the one already conceded to the side of Brest 1-0. Consequently, the Rocher club is already 9 points behind the top 4 in Ligue 1.

Heidenheim vs Bayern Munich - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Germany - Bundesliga

The second part of the season promises to be testing for this Heidenheim team which, after having already had to compete in the play-offs to maintain its place in the elite, will have to redouble its efforts to try to renew its lease in the Bundesliga over the coming months. 17th in the ranking before this 15th day, Franck Schmidt's men have only gleaned 11 points during their first 14 matches and they are 2 points behind the first non-relegation team, Augsburg. A little better recently, the FCH was able to win against Union Berlin 1-2 and Friborg 2-1 before falling on the field of Sankt Pauli 2-1 last weekend. Bayern Munich, for its part, obviously does not have a competitor of its size this year beyond the Rhine.

Large leader of the ranking, the FCB already has a very comfortable lead of 9 points over its first pursuer, Leipzig, despite its small hitch experienced last week against Mainz 2-2 during a meeting which it nevertheless dominated from start to finish, falling on a heroic opposing goalkeeper. Before that, the Bavarians had crushed 3 nice victories in a row in the league against Freiburg 6-2, Sankt Pauli 3-1 and Stuttgart 0-5. They have also won 5 of their first 6 Champions League matches including the last one against Sporting 3-1 last week and are already practically assured of participating in the 1/8th finals of the competition.

Mainz vs St. Pauli - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Germany - Bundesliga

Present on 2 tables this season, Mainz is honoring its colors for the moment in the Conference League. 8th in the ranking before challenging Samsunspor next Thursday, this team will want to keep its place in the top 8 to validate its place in the 1/8 finals of this competition. On the other hand, it is not the same song in the Bundesliga where FSV is struggling at the bottom of the ranking, already far from the first non-relegation place. The men of Urs Fischer, who recently arrived to take over from Bo Henricksen who was dismissed from his position at the start of the month, are in fact 6 points behind Augsburg, 15th. Beaten by Friborg 4-0 and by Gladbach 0-1, the Nullfünfer on the other hand went for an unexpected point against Bayern Munich 2-2 last week.

For their part, Sankt Pauli will also have to get down to business in the second part of the season to hope to quickly validate their stay in the elite. The Hamburg-based club is in 16th place in this Bundesliga, 4 points ahead of its opponent of the day and 2 behind the first non-relegation team. In great difficulty for many weeks, the Pirates of the League had a terrible series of 9 defeats in a row in the league before finally raising their heads against Cologne 1-1. But last weekend, Alexander Blessin's players finally found their smiles again by winning in a clash to maintain against Heidenheim 2-1.

Cagliari vs Pisa - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Cagliari is currently 15th in Serie A and is 2 points ahead of the first relegation place. The Sardinians recently ended a bad series of 9 games without a win, 4 draws and 5 defeats by winning, to everyone's surprise, against Roma at home 1-0. However, they relapsed last weekend. Cagliari was not unworthy but logically lost on the field of Atalanta because of a goal conceded at the end of the game 2-1. Expected in the fight at the bottom of the ranking for its return to the elite, Pisa does not defy the predictions.

Indeed, the promoted team now occupies 19th place in Serie A with 4 units of expenditure on the first non-relegation place. Alberto Gilardino's men pocketed their only success against Cremonese at the beginning of November 1-0. Subsequently, they started a negative dynamic again. Pisa took a point at Sassuolo 2-2 before losing to Inter 0-2, Parma 0-1 and Lecce last weekend 1-0.

Fiorentina vs Udinese - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

In a difficult situation this season, Fiorentina is the only team which has still not pocketed a single victory in the league, 6 draws and 9 defeats. La Viola occupies the last place in Serie A with 8 points behind the first non-relegation place. Despite a quality squad, the Tuscans are unable to find the right formula. They remain on setbacks suffered against Atalanta 2-0, Sassuolo 3-1 and Hellas Verona last weekend 1-2. Udinese is currently 10th in Serie A and concedes 4 spending units on the last European folding seat.

The Friulians do not seem sufficiently armed to play for the top of the table but can, however, be satisfied with having distanced themselves from the red zone, 9 points ahead. During the last 8 days, they have gleaned 4 victories, for 4 defeats. Beaten at home by Genoa 1-2, Udinese then created a surprise by beating Napoli last weekend 1-0.

Genoa vs Atalanta - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Genoa currently occupies 16th place in Serie A, 2 points ahead of the first relegated team. After a sluggish start to the championship, the leaders ousted French coach Patrick Vieira at the end of October. This change allowed Vitinha's teammates to raise their heads. In fact, they went 5 games without defeat in the league, 3 wins and 2 draws, and thus left the red zone. Last weekend, Genoa suffered a setback by losing at home against Inter 1-2. Considered a serious contender for the European folding seats, Atalanta is behind on its progress.

La Dea is currently 12th in Serie A and is 6 points behind 6th place. Since the arrival on the bench of Raffaele Palladino, the Bergamasques have won 2 championship matches, losing 2. Beaten by Napoli 3-1 and Hellas Verona 3-1, they also won at home against Fiorentina 2-0 and Cagliari last weekend 2-1. More to its advantage in the Champions League, Atalanta occupies 5th place with a record of 4 victories, 1 draw and 1 defeat.

Sassuolo vs Torino - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Italy - Serie A

Sassuolo exceeds expectations for its return to the elite by keeping a safe distance from the fight so as not to go down. The promoted team now occupies 9th place in Serie A with 9 points ahead of the first relegated team and 4 behind the last European jump seat. To their advantage, Fabio Grosso's men have only lost one of their last 5 league matches, for 2 wins and 2 draws. After winning against Fiorentina at home 3-1, they brought back a good point from AC Milan last weekend 2-2. Torino is currently 13th in Serie A and is 5 points ahead of the red zone.

The Piedmontese have not yet found the right fuel this season. They still took a breath of fresh air last weekend by defeating Cremonese 1-0. This result does a lot of good for Torino who had lost their three previous matches against Como 1-5, Lecce 2-1 and AC Milan losing a 2-goal advantage 2-3.

Betis vs Getafe - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Spain - LaLiga

Betis Sevilla are 6th in La Liga at the start of this 17th day and are clearly doing the job against a good part of the championship. On the other hand, against the "big names", the Verdiblancos are a little less sharp, as evidenced by their three defeats against Barcelona 3-5, Atlético Madrid 0-2 and Athletic Bilbao 1-2. Casually, since the start of the season, these are the only three defeats suffered by the Sevillians. Recently, they even ended an 8-year drought by beating Sevilla FC at Pizjuan 1-2. Last weekend, on the lawn of Rayo Vallecano, Manuel Pellegrini's men failed to find the breakthrough 0-0.

During the week, Bétis tried to qualify for the 1/8 finals of the Copa del Rey on the Murcia pitch, results to come. Getafe, five points behind Bétis, last qualified for Europe, must take a positive result today on the road. Times are tough for the Azulones, defeated four times in the last five days of La Liga, against Mallorca 1-0, Atlético Madrid 0-1, Villarreal 2-0 and still without scoring for the arrival of the Pericos of Espanyol last weekend 0-1. Like the Verdiblancos, during the week, El Geta was on deck in the Copa del Rey, on the Burgos pitch for a qualification in the 1/8th final, result to come.

Elche vs Rayo Vallecano - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Spain - LaLiga

Elche is showing the way to the promoted teams in this first half of the season. We are talking about a team still undefeated at home in the league, despite receiving Real Madrid 2-2 or even Bétis at the start of the season 1-1. Rigorous, playful and passionate in front of their audience, the Franjiverdes improved their very good first weeks of competition by qualifying for the 1/8 finals of the Copa del Rey by beating Eibar away this week 0-1. On the previous day, Elche fell to Mallorca 3-1, a week after their peppy victory against Girona at home 3-0. 11th at the start of this day, Elche, on the other hand, has only won 2 of its last 10 matches in the league, 5 defeats. Opposite, there was no Copa del Rey on the program for Rayo Vallecano but a final league phase match of the Conference League against Drita, result to come.

In the league, the Madrid team suffers in silence having not won any of its last 6 matches. It all started on November 1 with a big defeat suffered away on the pitch at Villarreal 4-0. Subsequently, Rayo went on to share three points with Real Madrid 0-0, Real Oviedo 0-0 and Valencia at home 1-1 before losing again on the lawn of the Pericos of Espanyol Barcelona 1-0. Last weekend, for the reception of Bétis, neither team was able to find the fault 0-0.

Girona vs Atl. Madrid - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Spain - LaLiga

Girona are 18th at the start of this day, under the threat of relegation but one victory away from being able to escape the red zone. With 15 points, only 11th, Elche, is mathematically impossible to catch up in a match. So there is no fire in the lake, especially since things finally seem to be going better in the game for the Blanquivermells who have just won away on the pitch of Real Sociedad 1-2. Before this victory, the Catalans suffered a heavy disappointment against Elche 3-0. This setback followed 2 draws against Real Madrid 1-1 and on the Bétis field 1-1.  On the other side of the median, Atlético Madrid lost big in the space of a week with defeats suffered on the pitches of Camp Nou against Barcelona 3-1 and San Mamés de Bilbao 1-0.

The Colchoneros are now 9 lengths behind the Blaugrana at the top of the standings. It's all the more a shame for Atlético Madrid who had achieved a great series of 7 victories in a row in all competitions. Last weekend, to avoid a third disappointment, the Madrilenians beat Valencia at the Metropolitano 2-1. This week, it was to the Balearic Islands that Antoine Griezmann's partners went to challenge Atletico Baleares in the Copa del Rey. Without shining, the Madrilenians ended up winning after a tight match 2-3.

Villarreal vs Barcelona - Sunday, 21 December 2025

league: Spain - LaLiga

This Villarreal team needs to confirm that they are among the title candidates this season. 3rd with a day behind Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, ​​the Yellow Submarine could come back to 5 points behind Barça in the event of success today, and possibly to 2 points in the event of success during the first day. The stakes are therefore very high for Marcelino's men who have just experienced real disillusionment in the Copa del Rey where they were knocked out by Racing Santander, current leader of the Liga Hypermotion 2-1. A defeat that comes at a rather bad time since Villarreal wanted to move forward after their home defeat against Copenhagen in the Champions League 2-3, which practically earned them elimination from the most prestigious of European competitions. Deprived of La Liga last weekend following the postponement of the planned trip against Levante due to weather conditions, Villarreal will therefore welcome Barça having been victorious in their last six matches in the elite. FC Barcelona was also traveling in the 1/16th final of the Copa del Rey during the week and won against Guadalaraja 0-2.

The decision was made in the last quarter of an hour of play, through Andreas Christensen and Marcus Rashford. Thanks to this victory, the Blaugrana recorded a 6th victory in a row in all competitions, in La Liga against Osasuna last weekend 2-0, Bétis 3-5, Atlético Madrid 3-1 and Alaves with the same score 3-1 and in the Champions League against Frankfurt 2-1. The last defeat dates back to the trip to Chelsea in the Champions League 3-0. In La Liga, the Culers are leaders with 4 points ahead of Real Madrid at the start of this day.
