Discover the best football leagues in the world to bet on beyond the English Premier League.
Football is the world’s most popular sport, of that there is no doubt. There are currently over 3 billion fans enjoying football games around the globe, many of whom play the game for fun as well. However, those who don’t enjoy playing the game, enjoy wagering on it.
Football and Betting
Football has a loyal and dedicated betting audience. Estimates put the total amount of money bet on soccer at over 200 billion dollars, worldwide. The online sports betting market has significantly contributed to the popularity of sports betting, and especially football wagers.For the unaware, online bookies are sites that cover notable sports events, and come out with fair and balanced odds. One of the most notable of these websites is Novibet, a bookie that is famous for its detailed coverage and pretty respectable bonuses.
With online sports betting, many football events have grown in popularity. Which begs the question, what are the most popular football leagues to bet on? In this article, we will answer that very question.
The English Premier League
If we focus on the seasonal leagues that take place every year, then we certainly can’t do a list like this without bringing up the English Premier League. The EPL is England’s top-tier football league, featuring some of the most popular sports clubs worldwide, including Manchester City and Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool.Of course, it is the most popular sports competition in England, but what makes the EPL special is that it gets attention worldwide. When most people consider getting into football, they don’t look at their own local leagues, but rather turn on the English Premier League instead. Naturally, that means that there is a lot of money that goes into betting on the EPL. To be precise, over 60 billion Euros were wagered on the EPL in 2021/2022. Who knows how much that amount has grown since.
The Spanish La Liga
The Spanish League, known in Spain as the Campeonato Nacional de Liga de Prima, and better known as La Liga to the rest of the world, is the second most popular football league in the world. It is to be expected, as it is the stomping ground of Real Madrid, the club that currently holds the honor of being the most popular football club in the world. Real Madrid’s greatest rivals, Barcelona, are also a staple of the league, and its current champions.Much like with the Premier League, La Liga attracts fans from all over the world. Which means it attracts bettors from all over the world. Going by the same statistical analysis done in 2022, estimates state that 42 billion Euros were spent on La Liga wagers during the 2021/22 season. Which places La Liga comfortably on the second spot on our list.
Honorable Mentions
The five major European football leagues are all incredibly popular betting events. We already discussed the EPL and the La Liga, but that doesn’t mean that Bundesliga, Serie A, Euro and Ligue 1 are any less popular. All of these leagues see upwards of tens of billions of Euros in wagers every year.Upcoming Hot Matches

QPR
Blackburn Rovers enter this clash with Queens Park Rangers buoyed by a strong run of form in November. Under Valerien Ismael, the team has found resilience after a poor start to the season, winning four of their last five matches. Their most recent triumph came in the Lancashire derby against Preston North End, where goals from Lewis Miller and Andri Gudjohnsen secured a 2-1 victory. Earlier in the month, Blackburn also recorded wins over Bristol City and Leicester City, showing their ability to grind out results both home and away. Despite injury setbacks, including goalkeeper Balázs Tóth’s absence following surgery, the squad has rallied impressively, climbing up the Championship table and restoring confidence among supporters. The club also celebrated its 150th anniversary this month, adding a sense of pride and momentum to their campaign.
Queens Park Rangers, meanwhile, have endured a more turbulent spell, struggling to find consistency under Julien Stéphan. Their November fixtures highlighted the challenge, with a heavy 4-1 defeat to Ipswich Town followed by a narrow 2-1 loss to Southampton. They did manage to hold Sheffield United to a goalless draw, but their inability to convert chances has been a recurring issue. Heading into the Hull City fixture, QPR were on a four-match winless streak, raising questions about their attacking depth and defensive stability. Rumarn Burrell has been a bright spot with five goals this season, but the team’s reliance on individual moments rather than collective strength has left them vulnerable. With trips to Blackburn and Norwich looming, the pressure is mounting for QPR to rediscover their rhythm before the busy winter schedule.

Sheffield Wed
Millwall enter this clash with Sheffield Wednesday carrying a mixture of optimism and caution. Over the past two months, the Lions have been dealing with injury concerns, but manager Alex Neil recently confirmed a triple boost with key players returning to training. Defender Jake Cooper also celebrated his 400th appearance for the club, a milestone that underlines his importance to the squad. Despite setbacks, Millwall have shown resilience, particularly in their home fixtures at The Den, where they continue to rely on a compact defensive shape and opportunistic attacking play. The international break was seen as timely, giving the squad a chance to regroup after a demanding run of games.
Recent performances highlight Millwall’s fluctuating form. They secured a gritty 1-1 draw against Preston North End, suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat away to Birmingham City, and battled to a 2-2 stalemate with Oxford United. However, their victories over Leicester City (1-0) and Stoke City (2-0) earlier in October demonstrated their ability to grind out results against strong opposition. The Lions also edged past QPR with a 2-1 win, showing their capacity to strike late and hold firm under pressure. These results have kept them in the upper mid-table, with a balance of defensive solidity and occasional attacking flair that makes them difficult to predict.

Portsmouth
Sheffield United enter this midweek clash against Portsmouth with a mixture of frustration and resilience. Over the past two months, the Blades have been battling inconsistency under Chris Wilder, who recently admitted the job has been tougher than expected. Injuries have played a part, though there was a boost with goalkeeper Michael Cooper returning to fitness. Their recent run includes a 0-0 draw with QPR, a 3-1 defeat at Coventry, and a 1-3 home loss to Derby. Earlier in October, they managed a 3-2 defeat at Preston after leading, but also secured a morale-boosting 3-1 win away at Blackburn and a narrow 1-0 victory over Watford at Bramall Lane. These results highlight a side struggling to find rhythm but still capable of grinding out hard-fought points when needed.
Portsmouth, meanwhile, have endured a similarly turbulent period since stepping up to the Championship. Manager John Mousinho has faced challenges with injuries and squad depth, though there have been glimpses of promise. In the last two months, Pompey drew 0-0 with Wrexham, lost 3-2 in a thriller at Hull, and suffered heavy defeats such as 4-0 away to Birmingham and 1-0 at home against Stoke. They also fell 2-1 to Coventry at Fratton Park but managed a spirited 1-1 draw away at Leicester, showing resilience against stronger opposition. Off the pitch, there have been discussions about transfer strategies and squad reinforcements, with fans eager to see more consistency as the season progresses. The club’s return to the Championship has been a learning curve, but the fight remains alive.

Birmingham
West Bromwich Albion head into their clash with Birmingham City in the Championship with renewed confidence after a string of solid performances in recent weeks. Carlos Corberán’s side have been pushing hard for a playoff spot, and their resilience has been evident in matches such as the 3-1 victory over Plymouth Argyle and the hard-fought 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town. In the past two months, the Baggies have also been buoyed by positive news regarding the return of key players from injury, including Daryl Dike’s gradual recovery, which has given fans hope of more attacking options as the season progresses. The Hawthorns faithful will be expecting their team to maintain momentum and capitalize on Birmingham’s recent struggles.
Birmingham City, meanwhile, have endured a turbulent period both on and off the pitch. The club made headlines in October when Wayne Rooney was appointed manager, a move that sparked significant debate among supporters and pundits alike. Since then, results have been mixed, with Birmingham suffering defeats against Southampton and Hull City but also showing flashes of promise, such as their 2-1 win over Huddersfield Town. The team has been adjusting to Rooney’s tactical demands, and while consistency has been elusive, the squad has demonstrated determination to climb away from the lower half of the table. The upcoming fixture against West Brom is seen as a crucial test of Birmingham’s ability to adapt and respond under pressure.

Bristol City
Wrexham’s rise through the English football pyramid has continued to capture attention, and their recent form in the Championship has been a talking point across the past two months. The club, backed by its Hollywood ownership, has been working hard to prove that they belong at this level. In October, Wrexham secured a gritty 1-0 victory over Preston North End, showing resilience in defense and composure in attack. More recently, they battled to a 2-2 draw against Cardiff City, a match that highlighted both their attacking flair and occasional defensive lapses. News surrounding the squad has focused on the fitness of striker Paul Mullin, who returned from a minor injury layoff and immediately made an impact, while manager Phil Parkinson has emphasized the importance of consistency as the season heads into its crucial winter phase.
Bristol City, meanwhile, have been navigating a challenging run of fixtures, with mixed results in the past two months. In late October, they stunned Sunderland with a 3-1 win, a performance that showcased their ability to counterattack effectively and punish defensive errors. However, their momentum faltered in early November when they fell to a 2-0 defeat against Leeds United, a game where their midfield struggled to control possession. The club has also been in the headlines due to speculation around young talent Alex Scott, who continues to attract interest from Premier League clubs despite his focus on contributing to City’s Championship campaign. Manager Liam Manning has spoken about the need for greater consistency, particularly in away fixtures, where Bristol City have struggled to replicate their home form.

Arsenal

Bayern Munich
Halfway through the league stage, Arsenal confirm they are title contenders. The semi-finalist of the previous edition mastered his subject against Athletic Bilbao 0-2, Olympiakos 2-0, Atletico Madrid 4-0 and Slavia Prague 0-3, each time without conceding a goal. Its results make it 2nd in the league phase behind Bayern Munich. With 3 lengths ahead of 9th place, the first qualifier for the play-offs, the Gunners are well into the race for the round of 16. Their excellent form is also reflected in the Premier League exercise which they dominate head and shoulders. Mikel Arteta's players, however, were held by Sunderland before the break 2-2 , seeing their series of 5 Championship successes come to an end, and were able to bounce back from the restart, last Sunday at home, in front of their rival Tottenham.
Bayern Munich is leader of the league phase at the end of the first 4 days thanks to a better attack than Arsenal. The Bavarian club notably remained on a success at the title holder, PSG 1-2, after having tamed Chelsea 3-1, Pafos 1-5 and Club Bruges 4-0. He has been unrivaled at all levels since the start of the season but saw a victory escape him for the first time, before the break, against Union Berlin 2-2. Before this hitch, Harry Kane and his teammates had won their first 16 matches in all competitions. They have already knocked out the competition in the Bundesliga and aimed to resume their march forward on Saturday in front of Freiburg.

Atl. Madrid

Inter
Last year, Atlético Madrid was cruelly eliminated by Real Madrid in the round of 16 in the Champions League . Eager to have a good run this season, the Colchoneros are today in 17th place in the ranking with 3 points behind the Top 8 and 3 ahead of 25th place. They lost at Liverpool 3-2 and Arsenal 4-0 and otherwise remained masters at home with successes against Frankfurt 5-1 and Union Saint-Gilloise 3-1. In La Liga, Atlético Madrid is currently 4th and is 6 points behind the leader. Authors of a sluggish start to the championship, Diego Simeone's men then found the right fuel. After having in turn dominated Osasuna 1-0, Bétis 0-2, Sevilla FC 3-0 and Levante 3-1, they traveled to Getafe last weekend. To their advantage on the continental scene in recent years, Inter reached the Champions League final in 2023 and 2025.
The Lombard team opened a new chapter this summer with the departure of the coach Simone Inzaghi and the arrival on the bench of Christian Chivu. The Champions League campaign has been simply perfect so far, as evidenced by the successes achieved against Ajax 0-2, Slavia Prague 3-0, Union Saint-Gilloise 0-4 and Kairat Almaty 2-1. It should still be noted that the schedule was particularly lenient. Also to their advantage on the national scene, the Nerazzurri monopolize the lead of Serie A. Beaten in the lair of Napoli 3-1, they then took over Fiorentina 3-0, Hellas Verona 1-2 and Lazio just before the international break 2-0. Last weekend, Inter played, in front of their fans, the Madonnina derby against AC Milan to come.

Atalanta
Beaten by Tottenham in the quarter-finals of the Europa League last year, Frankfurt is testing itself in the most prestigious club competition this season. The objective is to get out of the regular phase but the task does not look so easy. Eintracht is currently 23rd in the Champions League and one point ahead of 25th place. The teammates of former Rennais Arthur Theate launched their campaign perfectly by crushing Galatasaray 5-1 but then suffered heavy setbacks against Atlético Madrid 5-1 and Liverpool 1-5. On the last day, they showed a reaction by bringing back a good draw from Napoli 0-0. In the Bundesliga, Frankfurt currently occupies 7th place in the standings with 4 points behind the Top 4. After having played 4 matches without a setback, 2 wins and 2 draws, Dino Toppmöller's gang traveled to Cologne this coming last weekend. Winner of the Europa League in 2024, Atalanta then fell against Club Bruges in the round of 16 of the Champions League.
last year. La Dea hope to do better this season despite the traumatic departure of charismatic coach Gian Piero Gasperini last summer. The Bergamasques now occupy 16th place in the C1 with 3 lengths ahead of their opponent of the day. Severely beaten by PSG 4-0 and held to a draw at home by Slavia Prague 0-0, they otherwise won against Club Bruges 2-1 and OM thanks to a goal scored at the very end of the game 0-1. On the national scene, Atalanta is only 13th in Serie A. After a bad series of 7 games without a win, 5 draws and 2 defeats, coach Ivan Juric was dismissed. For the first time on Raffaele Palladino's bench, La Dea traveled to Napoli last weekend.

Kairat Almaty
FC Copenhagen enter this Champions League fixture against Kairat Almaty with a mixture of optimism and pressure. In recent weeks, the Danish side has been in the headlines for transfer speculation, notably their interest in Newcastle United defender Emil Krafth, while young striker Viktor Dadason has attracted attention from Borussia Dortmund scouts after his breakthrough performances. On the pitch, Copenhagen’s form has been inconsistent: they suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Tottenham in London and a 2-0 loss at Vejle in the Superliga, but they also managed a 3-2 win over Fredericia and a convincing 4-1 victory against Hobro. These results highlight a team that can be dangerous in attack but vulnerable defensively, a balance they will need to address against Kairat.
Kairat Almaty, meanwhile, have been dealing with off-field challenges as well. Just last month, fans expressed frustration after the club announced that upcoming Champions League home matches would be relocated from Almaty to Astana due to harsh winter conditions. Despite the controversy, Kairat have shown resilience in their campaign. Their recent fixtures include a narrow 2-1 loss away to Inter Milan, a 1-1 draw against Astana in the domestic league, and a goalless stalemate with Pafos in Europe. Earlier in October, they enjoyed a strong 5-0 win over Zhetysu and a 1-0 victory against Kyzylzhar, though they were humbled by Real Madrid in a 5-0 defeat. This mix of results demonstrates their ability to compete but also exposes their limitations against top-tier opposition.

Liverpool’s clash with PSV in the Champions League promises to be one of the standout fixtures of the group stage. Over the past two months, Liverpool have been in the headlines for their strong domestic form, with Jürgen Klopp’s side continuing to balance Premier League commitments alongside European ambitions. The Reds recently secured a convincing win over Bournemouth and followed it up with a gritty draw against Manchester City, showcasing both attacking flair and defensive resilience. News surrounding Mohamed Salah’s consistent performances and Darwin Núñez’s growing influence has added optimism to their camp, while injuries to key midfielders have forced Klopp to rotate his squad more than usual. This match against PSV is seen as a crucial test of Liverpool’s depth and adaptability in high-pressure European nights.
PSV Eindhoven arrive at Anfield with confidence after dominating the Eredivisie in recent weeks. They have maintained their unbeaten run in the Dutch league, with standout victories against Ajax and AZ Alkmaar, proving their attacking strength and tactical discipline. Luuk de Jong has been in excellent form, scoring consistently, while young talents like Johan Bakayoko have added pace and creativity to their forward line. In the past two months, PSV’s European campaign has also drawn attention, with their hard-fought win against Sevilla and a resilient draw against Arsenal highlighting their ability to compete against top-tier opposition. Manager Peter Bosz has emphasized the importance of maintaining composure against Liverpool’s pressing style, and PSV’s recent performances suggest they are prepared for the challenge.

Real Madrid
Olympiacos Piraeus enter this Champions League clash with Real Madrid under pressure to prove they can still compete at the highest level. In domestic action, they have shown resilience, defeating Atromitos 3–0 and Kifisia 3–1 in November, while young midfielder Christos Mouzakitis earned the prestigious Golden Boy Web 2025 award, a boost for the club’s reputation. However, their European campaign has been far less convincing. Olympiacos were heavily beaten 6–1 by Barcelona and failed to secure wins against Arsenal and PSV, drawing 1–1 with the Dutch side earlier this month. Off the pitch, the club was fined €6,000 for offensive chants during their home game against Partizan, a reminder of the challenges they face in maintaining discipline among supporters. These developments set the stage for a tense encounter against one of Europe’s most decorated teams.
Real Madrid arrive in Greece with mixed emotions following a turbulent November. Xabi Alonso’s side began the Champions League group stage strongly, defeating Marseille 2–1, Kairat Almaty 5–0, and Juventus 1–0, but their perfect run was halted by a narrow 1–0 loss to Liverpool . In La Liga, Madrid remain top of the table, three points clear of Barcelona, though their momentum was checked by a goalless draw against Rayo Vallecano. Transfer rumors have swirled around the squad, with Trent Alexander-Arnold reportedly being asked to take on a leadership role, while speculation about Ibrahima Konaté’s potential move has added intrigue. Despite these distractions, Madrid’s squad depth and consistency in big matches continue to make them favorites in Europe, and their upcoming fixtures against Girona and Athletic Club will further test their endurance.

Tottenham
Paris Saint-Germain enter this Champions League clash with Tottenham carrying both confidence and concern. In the past two months, PSG have been balancing domestic dominance with European challenges. They recently defeated Le Havre 3-0 in Ligue 1, with goals from Lee Kang-In, Joao Neves, and Bradley Barcola, reclaiming the top spot in France. However, their Champions League campaign has been mixed: a 7-2 demolition of Bayer Leverkusen and a 2-1 away win at Barcelona were offset by a 1-2 home defeat to Bayern Munich . Injuries have complicated matters, with Achraf Hakimi sidelined after a heavy tackle against Bayern and Nuno Mendes only just returning to training following a knee sprain. Luis Enrique’s squad depth is being tested, but the reigning European champions remain formidable.
Tottenham, meanwhile, arrive in Paris with a season defined by inconsistency and injuries. In the Premier League, they drew 2-2 with Manchester United after previously losing 0-1 to Chelsea, but they showed resilience with a 3-0 win away at Everton. Their Champions League form has been steady, highlighted by a 4-0 victory over Copenhagen and a goalless draw against Monaco. Yet, manager Thomas Frank has had to juggle a long injury list, including concerns over Mohammed Kudus, Lucas Bergvall, and Randal Kolo Muani, though some of these players have recently returned to training. Spurs sit fifth in the Premier League table, and their attacking options remain unpredictable, with Richarlison and Kolo Muani competing for the central role.

The Cypriot champions, who only secured their first domestic league title last year, have carried their momentum into the UEFA Champions League . In recent months, they stunned Villarreal with a 1-0 home victory and held Olympiacos to a goalless draw away, showing resilience against seasoned European sides. Although they suffered a heavy 1-5 defeat to Bayern Munich , their ability to bounce back was evident in their spirited performances.

Their recent domestic fixtures included a hard-fought draw against Lazio in the Derby della Capitale and a convincing win over Torino, where their attacking combinations looked sharper than earlier in the season. Jose Mourinho has emphasized squad rotation to keep his players fresh, and the team’s balance between youth and experience has been a key talking point in Italian media.

Young Boys
Aston Villa’s return to European competition has been one of the most talked-about stories in English football this autumn. Under Unai Emery, the team has shown remarkable consistency, with their domestic form in the Premier League complementing their Europa League campaign. In October and November, Villa recorded notable wins against AZ Alkmaar and Legia Warsaw, demonstrating their ability to adapt to continental football while maintaining intensity.

The club also made headlines recently with Douglas Luiz’s contract extension, securing one of their most influential midfielders for the long term.

Over the past two months, they have faced tough fixtures against Manchester City in the Champions League before transitioning into the Europa League knockout stages. Domestically, they remain strong, with victories over Lausanne and Lugano keeping them at the top end of the table. However, their European outings have highlighted defensive vulnerabilities, particularly when facing high-tempo sides.

Utrecht’s domestic form has been mixed, with wins over NEC Nijmegen but setbacks against AZ Alkmaar and Freiburg in Europe. Their squad has leaned on contributions from Miguel Rodríguez and Gjivai Zechiël, while defensive consistency remains a challenge. The team’s ambition is clear: to establish themselves as regular contenders in both domestic and European competitions.

Salzburg
Bologna’s return to the European stage has been marked by resilience and steady progress, and their upcoming clash with Salzburg in the Europa League is set to be one of the highlights of late November. In recent weeks, Bologna have been in the headlines not only for their football but also for local developments, such as the restoration works on the historic Garisenda tower and the city’s decision to impose a 30 km/h speed limit to improve safety. On the pitch, Bologna have impressed with a string of positive results, including a 3-1 away win against Parma, a 2-0 home victory over Napoli, and most recently a commanding 3-0 triumph against Udinese.

FCSB
Crvena zvezda enter this Europa League clash against FCSB with renewed confidence after a turbulent but ultimately encouraging run of results in the past two months. The Serbian champions have been in the spotlight recently due to their managerial adjustments and the emphasis on tightening their defensive structure following a string of inconsistent domestic performances. In late October, they secured a crucial league win against Radnički Niš, which helped stabilize their campaign after a disappointing draw with Čukarički. More recently, they faced Partizan in the eternal derby, a match that ended in a tense stalemate but showcased their resilience and ability to handle pressure. The team’s supporters have been vocal about their expectations, and the club’s leadership has promised a strong showing in Europe to reaffirm their continental ambitions.
FCSB, meanwhile, arrive with their own set of headlines, having dominated the Romanian Liga I in recent weeks. The Bucharest side have been praised for their attacking flair, particularly after their convincing victory over Universitatea Cluj earlier this month. They also managed to edge out CFR Cluj in a tightly contested encounter, which further solidified their position at the top of the domestic table. In October, FCSB made waves by announcing plans to strengthen their squad depth ahead of the winter transfer window, with rumors linking them to several promising talents from both Romania and abroad. Their coach has emphasized the importance of balancing domestic dominance with European competitiveness, and this fixture against Crvena zvezda is seen as a litmus test for their ability to translate local success into continental credibility.

Nice
FC Porto enter this Europa League clash against OGC Nice with confidence, having shown resilience in both domestic and continental competitions over the past two months. The Dragons recently secured a narrow 1-0 win away at Famalicão in the Primeira Liga, though that victory came at a cost with Jan Bednarek and Borja Sainz picking up injuries. In Europe, Porto have been steady, drawing 1-1 with Utrecht after earlier beating Crvena Zvezda 2-1 and Salzburg 1-0. Their squad has also been in the headlines, with young midfielder Victor Froholdt attracting interest from Manchester United and Tottenham, while striker Samu Aghehowa continues to impress with his scoring form. The return of goalkeeper João Costa has added depth and leadership, reinforcing the sense of unity under coach Francesco Farioli.
OGC Nice, meanwhile, arrive in Portugal under pressure, as their European form has been dismal. The French side have lost all four of their Europa League group matches so far, including a 3-1 home defeat to Freiburg and narrow losses against Celta Vigo and Fenerbahce. Domestically, Nice have shown flashes of quality, such as their 3-2 win over Lyon and victories against Lens and Montpellier, but inconsistency remains a major issue. Their most recent Ligue 1 outing ended in a heavy 5-1 defeat to Marseille, exposing defensive frailties and sparking criticism from coach Franck Haise, who openly questioned the squad’s ability to compete at European level. Terem Moffi has managed a couple of goals in Ligue 1, but overall attacking output has been limited, leaving Nice vulnerable against stronger opposition.

Fenerbahce enter this Europa League clash with Ferencvaros riding a wave of confidence from their domestic and continental form. In the Turkish Super Lig, Domenico Tedesco’s side has trimmed the gap to Galatasaray after a string of victories, including a 4-2 triumph over Kayserispor and a strong showing against Caykur Rizespor. Transfer speculation has also surrounded the club, with reports linking Robert Lewandowski and Ademola Lookman to Istanbul, highlighting the ambition of the Yellow Canaries. In Europe, Fenerbahce have shown resilience, defeating Stuttgart 1-0 and Nice 2-1 at home, while holding Viktoria Plzen to a goalless draw away. These results have kept them firmly in contention in their group, and the squad’s depth has been evident with contributions across the attacking line.
Ferencvaros, meanwhile, have been equally impressive in their Europa League campaign, showcasing their ability to compete against seasoned European sides. Under Robbie Keane, the Hungarian champions have secured notable wins, including a 3-1 victory over Ludogorets, a 3-2 triumph away at Salzburg, and a narrow 1-0 win against Genk. Their domestic form has been mixed, with a surprising 1-3 defeat to Nyíregyháza in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I, but their European performances have overshadowed those setbacks. Star forward Barnabás Varga has been prolific, already reaching double figures in goals this season, while midfielders like Gavriel Kanichowsky and Cadu have provided crucial strikes in continental fixtures. Ferencvaros’s ability to adapt tactically has been a hallmark of their campaign.

Celtic
Feyenoord’s return to European competition has been marked by a mixture of resilience and ambition, with Arne Slot’s side continuing to show why they remain one of the most consistent teams in Dutch football. Over the past two months, Feyenoord have been balancing Eredivisie commitments with their Europa League campaign, and their domestic form has been strong, including a convincing win against FC Utrecht and a hard-fought draw with PSV Eindhoven. News surrounding the club has highlighted their determination to progress deep into Europe, with key players like Santiago Giménez attracting attention for his prolific scoring record. The Rotterdam side have also been praised for their tactical flexibility, often shifting between aggressive pressing and controlled possession depending on the opponent.
Celtic, meanwhile, have been navigating a challenging period under Brendan Rodgers, with their performances in Scotland’s Premiership showing both promise and vulnerability. In recent weeks, Celtic secured victories against St. Mirren and Aberdeen, but they also suffered a setback in a narrow defeat to Hearts, which raised questions about their defensive solidity. The past two months have seen Celtic dealing with injuries to important squad members, including Cameron Carter-Vickers, whose absence has forced tactical adjustments. Off the pitch, Rodgers has emphasized the importance of European progression, noting that Celtic must learn from their Champions League experiences and adapt to the intensity of the Europa League. Their supporters remain hopeful that the team can rediscover consistency on the continental stage.

Stuttgart
The upcoming Europa League clash between Go Ahead Eagles and VfB Stuttgart has generated considerable attention, especially as both sides have had contrasting fortunes in recent weeks. Go Ahead Eagles, who are enjoying their first major European campaign in decades, have shown flashes of resilience but also inconsistency. Their recent fixtures included a narrow 2-1 victory over Aston Villa and a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Panathinaikos, but they also suffered defeats against Salzburg and FCSB. Stuttgart, on the other hand, have been more consistent, with notable wins against Feyenoord and Fenerbahçe, demonstrating their ability to handle pressure in high-stakes matches. The game scheduled for November 27 at De Adelaarshorst in Deventer is expected to be a test of stamina, tactical discipline, and mental strength.
Injury updates have also shaped the narrative leading into this fixture. Stuttgart have had to cope without several key players in recent weeks, including R. Hendriks, Y. Keitel, L. Jaquez, and E. Demirović, all sidelined with various muscle and foot injuries. Despite these setbacks, their squad depth has allowed them to maintain momentum in the group stage. Go Ahead Eagles, by contrast, have been fortunate to avoid major injury concerns, which has given them a more stable lineup. However, their lack of European experience has occasionally been evident, particularly in matches where they struggled to maintain possession against technically superior opponents. The Eagles’ reliance on home support will be crucial, as their fans have created an intimidating atmosphere in Deventer, but Stuttgart’s composure on the road has been one of their strengths this season.

Genk’s return to European competition has been marked by a mixture of resilience and inconsistency. Over the past two months, the Belgian side has faced a demanding domestic schedule, including a spirited 2-1 victory over Standard Liège and a hard-fought draw against Anderlecht. In the Europa League group stage, Genk managed to secure a crucial win against Molde, which kept their hopes alive for progression. News around the club has focused on the fitness of key striker Tolu Arokodare, who recently returned from a minor injury, and the growing influence of midfielder Bryan Heynen, whose leadership has been praised by both teammates and analysts. The team’s ability to balance attacking flair with defensive discipline will be central to their chances against Basel.
Basel, meanwhile, has endured a turbulent period in Swiss football, struggling to maintain consistency in the Super League. In the last two months, they recorded a narrow 1-0 win over Lausanne but also suffered a disappointing defeat to Young Boys, highlighting their fluctuating form. In Europe, Basel’s campaign has been equally challenging, with a recent draw against Fiorentina showing both their resilience and their limitations. Off the pitch, the club has been in the headlines due to managerial adjustments and the emergence of young talents such as Bradley Fink, who has been tipped as a future star. Basel’s experience in continental competitions remains a strength, but their current squad has yet to fully convince supporters that they can replicate past European success.

Din. Zagreb
Lille’s upcoming Europa League clash with Dinamo Zagreb on November 27, 2025, is shaping up to be one of the more intriguing fixtures of the group stage. The French side has been in the spotlight recently after their emphatic 7-1 victory over Lorient at the end of August, which showcased their attacking depth and ability to dismantle defenses. In September, they followed up with a 2-1 win against Toulouse and a narrow 1-0 triumph over Monaco, proving they can grind out results as well as dominate. More recently, Lille’s form has been mixed, with a heavy 3-0 defeat to Lens reminding them of the defensive vulnerabilities that still linger. News around the club has also focused on their ambition to secure knockout qualification, with manager Paulo Fonseca emphasizing consistency as the key to progressing deep into the competition.
Dinamo Zagreb, meanwhile, arrive in France with a reputation for upsetting bigger clubs, and their recent results underline their resilience. In January 2025, they stunned AC Milan with a 2-1 home victory, a result that sent shockwaves across European football. Just a week earlier, however, they had been comprehensively beaten 3-0 by Arsenal, showing the inconsistency that has plagued their campaign. Their December 2024 draw against Celtic highlighted their ability to stay compact and frustrate opponents, but questions remain about their attacking potency when facing well-organized defenses. Over the past two months, Dinamo have been working to stabilize their squad, with Croatian media reporting on tactical adjustments aimed at balancing their midfield and giving their forwards more freedom. This match against Lille is seen as a litmus test for whether those changes can deliver results against a top-tier Ligue 1 side.

Celta Vigo
Everything started rather well for Ludogorets in this Europa League. The club based in Razgrad had in fact launched its European campaign with a 1-2 success at Malmö on the first day. But the rest was less brilliant for this team which was beaten during the last 3 days by Bétis 0-2, Young Boys 3-2 and finally by Ferencvaros 3-1 . Logically, the Bulgarians have therefore fallen to 30th position in the ranking, 2 lengths from 24th place. In the championship, Ludogorets is also far from its best level since it is only in 5th place in the ranking after its defeat against Arda 2-3 before the international break. On Sunday, they travel to the Septemvri field to get back on track.
As for Celta Vigo, we are in a much better position to try to qualify for the rest of the competition. The Spaniards are indeed at the foot of the podium in this Conference League with 9 points taken out of 12 possible so far. If they had been dominated by Stuttgart 2-1 for their debut in the tournament, the partners of Iago Aspas bounced back perfectly by aligning 3 victories in a row against PAOK Salonika 3-1, OGC Nice 3-1 and Dinamo Zagreb 0-3 . In La Liga, the Celticos are stuck in the 2nd part of the standings, in 13th position. Beaten by FC Barcelona 2-4, the Galicians will hope to do better against Deportivo Alaves.

An end to the league phase is looming for Maccabi Tel Aviv, 34th out of 36 with one point. The Israeli champion, however, remains with serious defeats against Dinamo Zagreb 1-3, Midtjylland 0-3 and Aston Villa 2-0 since he is 4 points behind the top 24 qualifying for the play-offs. As for the Championship, Maccabi, runner-up to Hapoel Beer-Sheva, has not played since November 9, the date of a heavy defeat against its closest pursuer, Betar Jerusalem 2-6. Opposite, Lyon saw victory slip away for the first time in this league phase, at the start of the month, against Betis Sevilla 2-0.
The Rhone club, winner at the start of the campaign against Utrecht 0-1, Salzburg 2-0 and Basel 2-0, however remains very well positioned in the ranking, in 7th place. His first European blunder came in a run of 4 games without winning before the international break. OL therefore had to wake up last Sunday on the pitch at Auxerre, as a dress rehearsal for the fifth day of the Europa League.

Malmo FF
By beating Porto on the 3rd day 2-0, Nottingham not only won a small regular season match in the Europa League, it stopped a very bad series of ten games without the slightest victory in all competitions including seven defeats and four in a row against Sunderland 0-1, Newcastle 2-0 and Chelsea in the Premier League 0-3 and against Midtjylland at home in the Europa League 2-3. On the other hand, this success against the Dragons did not materialize since in the process, Forest lost to Bournemouth 2-0 , forced to share the points with Manchester United 2-2 and trapped at Sturm Graz during J4 of the C3 0-0. It was finally before the international break, in the Premier League, that Nottingham found a smile again by beating promoted Leeds at home 3-1. The Swedish championship ended and Malmö, the outgoing double title holder, did not even grab a spot among the podium and will not be European next season, unless they win a Europa League title.
And given how things are going, we are heading more towards elimination without even going through the play-offs than qualification for the round of 16. Indeed, the Swedes have still not won, having already conceded three defeats against Panathinaikos 0-1, on the pitch in Plzen 3-0 and against Ludogorets at home 1-2 . The only point earned came at home against Dinamo Zagreb 1-1.

Last year, PAOK was eliminated by FCSB in the round of 16 of the Europa League. Eager to escape the regular phase again this season, the Thessaloniki club is currently 10th and is only a small point behind 8th place. The start of the campaign was difficult with a draw conceded at home against Maccabi Tel Aviv 0-0 and a loss to Celta Vigo 3-1. On the other hand, the successes obtained against Lille 3-4 and Young Boys 4-0 during the last two days allowed them to move up the rankings. In the championship, Razvan Lucescu's men now occupy 2nd place with 2 points behind Olympiakos. Just before the international break, they ended a good series of 4 victories by losing to Panathinaikos 2-1. Last weekend, PAOK hosted Kifisia.
A nice surprise at the start of the campaign, Brann is now in 11th place in this Europa League with the same number of points as his opponent of the day. Narrowly beaten in Lille to start 2-1, the Norwegians then put together good results. Indeed, they took the upper hand, at home, over Utrecht 1-0 and Rangers 3-0 before bringing back a good draw from Bologna on the last day 0-0. On the national scene, Brann will close his championship next weekend . Winning the first two places, the Bergen-based team is currently 3rd qualifying seat for the preliminary rounds of the next C3 and is 2 points ahead of the 4th qualifying seat for the preliminary rounds of the next C4. After going three games without a win, 1 draw and 2 defeats, Brann traveled to Molde last weekend.

Sturm Graz
Last weekend's meeting on the Penserraikos pitch was decisive for Panathinaikos since before the break, the Greek club had won four of their last five matches in all competitions. In the league against Asteras 2-0 and PAOK Salonika 2-1, in the cup against Atromitos 1-2 and in Sweden against Malmö in the Europa League 0-1. To talk about this C3, the local team reacted well following its two successive defeats against Feyenoord 3-1 and GA Eagles 1-2. During the first day, Panathinaikos quite calmly beat Young Boys on the road 1-4. For its part, Sturm Graz is 25th, eliminated from the Europa League. Obviously, there are still matches to play to secure a place among the first 24 and play in the round of 16.
During the previous day, at home, Sturm held Nottingham Forest to a draw but given the form of the English club, it is not necessarily a good result, especially at home 0-0. Before that, the Austrian club lost in Scotland against Celtic 2-1 and lost in J1 in Denmark against Midtjylland 2-0. The only victory achieved took place on the 2nd day, for the reception of Rangers 2-1. In the league, before the international break, Graz showed little investment by not winning any of the last three days including two defeats against Wolfsberger 1-3 and SK Rapid 2-1 and a draw for the reception of RB Salzburg 1-1. To see if the visiting team will have been able to smile again against LASK Linz the last weekend, result to come.

Plzen

Freiburg
Halfway through this league phase, Plzen is still undefeated after 4 days. A great performance for this Czech team which did not necessarily have an easy schedule to negotiate. Held in check by Ferencvaros 1-1 for their debut, the Viktoria players then crushed Malmö 3-0 then achieved a small feat by winning on Roma's field 1-2. Finally, on the last day, they held off a great Fenerbahce team 0-0, which allows them to occupy 8th place in the ranking, virtually qualifying directly for the 1/8 finals. On the national scene, however, Plzen appears a little less to its advantage. 5th in the standings, Viktoria remains in a big setback against Slavia Prague which it will want to erase on the Jablonec pitch next weekend .
Fribourg, for its part, is almost flawless for the moment in this Europa League. If we put aside the draw conceded against Bologna 1-1 during the 2nd day, the Germans have been full so far in this competition with successes won against FC Basel 2-1, Utrecht 2-0 and finally against OGC Nice 1-3 before the international break. This very good record allows the Black Forest club to rank 2nd in the ranking of this C3. On the other hand, the Brazilians from Brigsau are not as successful in the Bundesliga where they remain in the soft underbelly of the ranking. Winners of Sankt Pauli 2-1, they will have a lot to do this weekend to hope to continue against Bayern.

Rangers

Braga
It's quite simple, Rangers have still not earned a single point in the competition and they find themselves forced to occupy last place in the standings. The top 24 is already at 5 points, two victories. Four days before the end of the single group stage, the Scots would be well inspired to win now to believe in the 16th finals. These 4 defeats were at home against AS Roma 0-2 and Genk 0-1 and away to Brann 3-0 and Sturm Graz 2-1. Rangers are also struggling in the league with no less than 9 lengths behind the leader, Hearts. Last weekend, the Glasgow players were still able to win ahead of Livingston 2-1.
5th in this league phase, Braga wanted to record a 4th victory in a row but Genk prevented it with a 3-4 defeat. Before that, the Portuguese extinguished Red Star Belgrade 2-0, Celtic Glasgow 0-2 and Feyenoord on the 1st day 1-0. In the league, the Minhotos warriors reacted perfectly after their defeat against Porto 2-1 by beating Moreirense before the international break 2-1. Last weekend, no championship on the program for Sporting but a 1/16th final of the Portuguese Cup, won quite easily against Nacional at home 4-2.

Beerschot VA

RFC Liege
Beerschot VA enter this upcoming Challenger Pro League clash with confidence after a string of solid performances that have kept them near the top of the table. Over the past two months, the Antwerp-based side has shown resilience, bouncing back from a narrow 1-2 defeat against Kortrijk on November 2 by defeating RWDM Brussels 1-0 on November 9 and then overcoming Olympic Charleroi 2-1 on November 23. Their consistency has been a hallmark of their campaign, with earlier wins against Lommel and Westerlo in October further underlining their ability to grind out results. Off the pitch, Beerschot have also been active, welcoming new signings such as Genki Haraguchi and Ali Mohamed, which has added depth to their squad. The team’s ability to rotate effectively while maintaining momentum has been one of their strengths, and their supporters are optimistic about continuing this run against RFC Liège.
RFC Liège, meanwhile, have experienced a more turbulent run of form in recent weeks. Their last six matches have produced mixed outcomes, including a thrilling 4-3 victory over RWDM Brussels on October 25 and a 2-1 away win at Lierse on October 19. However, November has been less kind, with defeats against Gent II (0-2 on November 7) and Francs Borains (0-2 on November 21) exposing defensive vulnerabilities. A 1-1 draw against Olympic Charleroi on November 1 showed some resilience, but the inability to convert chances into wins has cost them valuable points. The club has made headlines with the signing of Alexis De Sart, a midfielder who brings experience and composure, but the squad still appears to be adjusting to new dynamics. Their supporters remain hopeful that the team can rediscover the attacking flair that brought them success earlier in the autumn.

Lommel SK
The upcoming clash between Eupen and Lommel SK in the Belgian Challenger Pro League promises to be one of the more intriguing fixtures of late November. Eupen have been in the spotlight recently after their strong home form, winning seven of their last ten matches at Kehrwegstadion, which has given them a reputation for resilience in front of their supporters. Over the past two months, Eupen have faced sides like SK Beveren and RFC Liège, showing both flashes of attacking flair and occasional defensive lapses. Their victory against Beveren earlier in November was particularly notable, as it highlighted their ability to grind out results even when not at their best. With the league reaching its midpoint, Eupen’s consistency at home is becoming a key talking point among analysts and fans alike.
Lommel SK, on the other hand, have endured a mixed run of form in recent weeks, especially in away fixtures. In their last ten matches on the road, they managed only four wins, which underlines their vulnerability when playing outside of their home ground. However, Lommel have shown resilience in certain encounters, such as their hard-fought draw against RWDM Brussels, where they came back from behind to secure a point. Earlier in November, Lommel also faced Club NXT U23, a match that ended in a stalemate, reflecting their tendency to struggle in breaking down compact defenses. Despite these challenges, Lommel’s attacking unit has remained dangerous, often creating chances through quick transitions and set pieces. Their ability to generate corners and pressure in the final third has been a recurring theme in their recent performances.

Tomayapo
The upcoming clash between Real Oruro and Real Tomayapo in the Bolivian División Profesional has generated considerable anticipation, especially as both sides have been navigating turbulent form in recent weeks. Real Oruro, who currently sit in the lower half of the table, have been striving to find consistency under coach Juan Cortés. Their recent playoff defeat to Blooming Santa Cruz on November 19, where they fell 2-1, highlighted defensive vulnerabilities that have plagued them throughout the season. Meanwhile, Tomayapo, guided by Marcelo Robledo, have shown flashes of resilience, securing crucial points in tightly contested fixtures. The match scheduled for November 28 at Estadio Jesús Bermúdez is expected to be a pivotal moment for both teams as they attempt to close the year on a stronger note.
Looking at Real Oruro’s recent performances, the team has struggled to convert promising attacking play into sustained results. Earlier this month, they were edged out by GV San José in a playoff tie, further underlining their difficulty in closing out matches. Despite this, Oruro’s midfield has shown creativity, often dictating possession and creating chances, though their finishing has been inconsistent. Their last six matches have produced a mixed record of two wins, three draws, and one loss, which reflects a side capable of competing but lacking the killer instinct. The squad’s reliance on younger players has added energy but also exposed them to lapses in concentration, something that Tomayapo will be keen to exploit.

Fluminense enter this clash against São Paulo in the Serie A Betano with a mixture of optimism and caution. Over the past two months, the Rio de Janeiro side has been dealing with squad rotation issues and injuries, particularly with key players missing stretches of games. News surrounding the club has focused on Fernando Diniz’s tactical adjustments and the team’s resilience despite setbacks. In recent fixtures, Fluminense managed to secure a hard-fought draw against Internacional and followed it up with a narrow victory over Cruzeiro, showing that even when not at their sparkling best, they can grind out results. Their supporters are eager to see consistency return, especially with the season entering a decisive phase.
São Paulo, on the other hand, have been in the spotlight for their Copa do Brasil triumph earlier this year, which has given them momentum heading into the league’s final stretch. Over the past two months, the club has been balancing celebrations with the reality of maintaining form in Serie A. Dorival Júnior’s men have faced tough opponents, including a spirited draw against Corinthians and a convincing win over Vasco da Gama. The latest news has highlighted the return of some injured players, which has boosted squad depth and morale. São Paulo’s defensive solidity has been a talking point, with the team conceding fewer goals compared to earlier in the campaign, making them a difficult side to break down.

Bahia
Juventude enter this clash at Estádio Alfredo Jaconi with a mixed run of form that has kept them hovering around mid-table. Over the past two months, the club has been in the headlines for their resilience despite injuries to key midfielders, and their ability to grind out results against stronger sides. They recently managed a hard-fought draw against Corinthians and secured a narrow win over Vasco da Gama, showing flashes of tactical discipline. However, defeats to Internacional and Fluminense highlighted their inconsistency, particularly in defensive transitions. The team’s supporters remain hopeful that the home advantage will provide the spark needed to overcome Bahia, especially as Juventude have historically been difficult to beat in Caxias do Sul.
Bahia, on the other hand, have endured a turbulent period in the last two months, struggling to find momentum in the league. Their recent fixtures have included a disappointing loss to Palmeiras and a heavy defeat against Athletico Paranaense, which exposed weaknesses in their backline. They did manage to hold Cruzeiro to a draw, but consecutive defeats have left them fighting to avoid slipping further down the table. News surrounding the squad has focused on the pressure facing head coach Rogério Ceni, who has been tasked with stabilizing performances and ensuring Bahia remain competitive in the final stretch of the season. Despite their struggles, Bahia’s attacking trio has shown sparks of creativity, though consistency remains elusive.

The upcoming clash between Vasco da Gama and Internacional in the Serie A Betano promises to be one of the more intriguing fixtures of the round. Vasco have been in the headlines recently after confirming Ramón Díaz’s departure and the appointment of Álvaro Pacheco as head coach, a move that has sparked debate among fans and pundits. Over the past two months, the Rio side has been working hard to stabilize their campaign, with management emphasizing defensive solidity and tactical discipline. The team’s supporters are eager to see whether the new leadership can translate into consistent performances, especially in high-pressure matches like this one.
Internacional, meanwhile, have had their own share of newsworthy developments. In October, the club celebrated the return of striker Enner Valencia from injury, giving them a much-needed boost in attack. They also faced challenges with fixture congestion due to their Copa Libertadores commitments, which tested the depth of their squad. Despite these hurdles, Internacional have shown resilience, with coach Eduardo Coudet rotating players effectively to keep the team competitive. The Porto Alegre side has been praised for its ability to adapt tactically, balancing domestic league demands with continental ambitions, and this upcoming encounter will be another test of their consistency.

Metz suffered a cruel defeat last Sunday in Brest 3-2, conceding the goal of the final decision in the 10th minute of added time. An end to the series for the Grenats who have not stopped winning since they pocketed their first victory of the year at the end of October against Lens 2-1, 10th day. They left the red zone in the wake of other successes achieved before the break in front of Nantes 0-2 and Nice 2-1 but are now back in this one, in 17th place. Metz has the same total points as the first non-relegation team and puts itself forward with the worst defense in the elite, with 30 goals conceded in 13 games. In demonstration last Saturday against Monaco 4-1, Stade Rennais confirms its clear recovery in form and takes its place in 6th place in Ligue 1.
The truce has not cooled the Rouge et Noir, already winners of Strasbourg 4-1 and Paris FC 0-1 before the two-week break. Their coach Habib Beye can breathe easy, having seen his team go 6 games without a win until securing the first good result in this current series of 3 successes. Rennes was defeated once in its first 6 away games of the year.

Vitoria Guimarães enter this clash with a sense of renewed confidence after a turbulent but promising couple of months in Liga Portugal. In October, the club announced contract extensions for key players such as Dani Silva, ensuring stability in midfield. They also celebrated their 102nd anniversary with a series of events that highlighted their strong community ties. On the pitch, Guimarães have been competitive, securing a notable 2-1 victory against Estoril and battling to a hard-fought draw with Braga. Their defensive organization has been a focal point, with manager Álvaro Pacheco emphasizing discipline and compactness in recent press conferences. The team’s ability to grind out results has kept them in the upper half of the table, and their supporters are optimistic about maintaining momentum heading into this fixture.

In October, they confirmed the signing of several young prospects from local academies, signaling a long-term vision for growth. Their most recent matches have been mixed, including a spirited 1-1 draw against Leixões and a narrow 2-0 defeat to Nacional. Despite the setbacks, AFS have shown flashes of resilience, particularly in their defensive transitions, where they have managed to frustrate stronger opponents. The club’s coaching staff have spoken about building consistency, and their supporters remain hopeful that the team can establish itself as a competitive force in the league. This upcoming clash against Guimarães represents both a challenge and an opportunity to measure themselves against a more established side.

AmaZulu
The upcoming Betway Premiership clash between Richards Bay and AmaZulu is shaping up to be a tense affair, scheduled for late November. Both sides have had fluctuating fortunes in recent weeks, and the narrative around this fixture is heavily influenced by their recent performances and off-field developments. Richards Bay have been in the spotlight after their narrow Carling Knockout Cup semi-final defeat to Orlando Pirates earlier this month, where Tshepang Moremi’s strike ended their hopes of progressing. Despite the loss, coach Ronnie Gabriel praised his squad’s resilience, noting that the team continues to grow in confidence even when results don’t always favor them. AmaZulu, meanwhile, have been balancing league commitments with cup fixtures, and their form has been mixed, with some impressive wins but also frustrating defeats. This sets the stage for a derby that carries both pride and crucial league points.
Richards Bay’s recent matches highlight their inconsistency but also their ability to grind out results. In October, they secured a 4-1 victory over Chippa United, followed by a disappointing 1-2 home loss to Orbit College. November brought more mixed outcomes: a 1-1 draw against Polokwane City, another 1-1 stalemate with Sekhukhune United, and a goalless draw against Durban City on November 23. Their Carling Knockout Cup run ended with a 1-0 defeat to Orlando Pirates, but they had earlier beaten Durban in extra time during the quarterfinals. These results show a team that struggles to dominate but remains difficult to break down, especially at home. Their defensive structure has been solid, though goals have been scarce, which is a recurring theme in their campaign.

Elche
Getafe enter this clash with Elche after a turbulent run of fixtures that has highlighted both their resilience and their limitations. In the past two months, the Madrid-based side has been in the headlines not only for their performances but also for ownership speculation, with reports of potential investment falling through. On the pitch, José Bordalás’s men have shown flashes of solidity, notably beating Athletic Bilbao away and Girona at home, but they have also suffered narrow defeats against Mallorca and Real Madrid. Their most recent outing against Atlético Madrid ended in heartbreak, as a late own goal condemned them to a 1-0 loss despite a spirited defensive display. This inconsistency has left Getafe hovering around mid-table, a position that reflects both their ability to frustrate stronger opponents and their struggle to convert chances into decisive victories.
Elche, meanwhile, have been carving out their own narrative since returning to LaLiga this season. Under Eder Sarabia, the team has demonstrated admirable resilience, particularly at home where they remain unbeaten despite facing heavyweights like Real Madrid. Their recent 2-2 draw against Los Blancos was a testament to their fighting spirit, with Aleix Febas and Álvaro Rodríguez scoring to twice put them ahead before Jude Bellingham’s late equaliser denied them a famous win. Prior to that, Elche had drawn with Real Sociedad and held Athletic Bilbao to a stalemate, though defeats against Barcelona and Espanyol exposed their lack of cutting edge in attack. The club has also had to manage injury concerns, with winger Josan sidelined, but their defensive organisation has kept them competitive in most fixtures. News around the squad has been largely positive, with Sarabia praised for instilling belief in a side that many expected to struggle.

Sporting Gijón enter this clash against FC Andorra with a mixed run of results that highlight both resilience and inconsistency. Over the past two months, Gijón have battled through tightly contested fixtures, including a 0-0 draw at home against Las Palmas on November 2 and a narrow 2-1 defeat away to Mirandés on November 7. They bounced back with a 1-1 draw against Eibar on November 16, showing their ability to recover after setbacks. Earlier in October, they recorded impressive wins against Real Zaragoza (1-0) and Valladolid (3-2), with Jonathan Dubasin and Juan Otero proving decisive in attack. The team’s form has kept them in mid-table contention, and the upcoming match against Andorra is seen as an opportunity to consolidate their position and push closer to the playoff spots.
FC Andorra, meanwhile, have endured a turbulent period in LaLiga2, struggling to find consistency under coach Ibai Gómez. Their most recent outing on November 22 ended in a 3-1 home defeat to Castellón, despite Kim Min-Su scoring late to salvage some pride. Earlier in November, they managed a 2-2 draw away at Huesca and a goalless stalemate against Cádiz, but defeats to Albacete (1-0) and Málaga (4-1) exposed defensive vulnerabilities. On the brighter side, their Copa del Rey campaign saw them thrash Valle de Egües 5-1 on October 30, a reminder of their attacking potential when given space. Andorra’s reliance on Daniel Villahermosa and Kim Min-Su for creativity and goals has been evident, but their inability to close out tight matches has left them hovering near the lower half of the table.

Aarau
The upcoming clash between Neuchâtel Xamax and FC Aarau in the Swiss Challenge League promises to be one of the more intriguing fixtures of late November. Xamax have been in the headlines recently due to their tightly contested matches, including a 2-2 draw against Yverdon on November 7 and a narrow 2-1 defeat away to Wil earlier in the month. Their schedule has been demanding, with fixtures against Stade Lausanne and Lausanne-Ouchy also shaping their current form. The team has shown resilience but continues to struggle with consistency, a factor that has kept them hovering in mid-table rather than pushing toward the top. News around the club has focused on their need to tighten defensive lapses, as they have conceded goals in nearly every recent outing, leaving supporters anxious about their ability to handle Aarau’s attacking strength.
Aarau, on the other hand, have experienced a rollercoaster of emotions over the past two months. Once leaders of the Challenge League, they lost their grip on the top spot after back-to-back defeats, including a shocking 5-1 loss to Bellinzona on November 8 and a 1-0 home defeat to Stade Nyonnais on November 22. Despite these setbacks, Aarau had earlier shown strong form with victories over Rapperswil-Jona and Wil, as well as a hard-fought 2-1 win against Lausanne-Ouchy in October. The recent dip has been attributed to defensive frailties and lapses in concentration, but the squad remains competitive, with coach Brunello Iacopetta emphasizing the need to bounce back quickly. Their attacking players, particularly Valon Fazliu, have been highlighted as key figures capable of turning matches in their favor.

The upcoming clash between Vitória and Mirassol in the Brasileirão Série A Betano promises to be one of the more intriguing fixtures of late November. Vitória have been battling near the lower end of the table, but their recent performances show resilience and flashes of quality. In the past two months, they managed to secure a notable 1-0 victory over Internacional at home, followed by hard-fought draws against Botafogo and Palmeiras. Most recently, they stunned Sport Recife with a 3-1 away win, a result that lifted morale and gave fans hope of avoiding relegation.

Exeter
Bradford City head into their upcoming League One clash with Exeter City with renewed optimism after a turbulent autumn. In recent weeks, the Bantams have been in the headlines following the appointment of new manager Tim Cloughessy, who stepped in after Graham Alexander’s departure in October. The change was seen as a fresh start for a side that has struggled for consistency but remains ambitious about climbing the table. Bradford’s supporters have been vocal about their desire to see more attacking football, and the team’s recent performances have hinted at a shift in style. The club also confirmed the return of striker Andy Cook from injury earlier this month, a boost that could prove decisive in their push for points.
Exeter City, meanwhile, have endured a challenging run of form over the past two months, with results highlighting their difficulty in maintaining momentum. The Grecians were in the news after manager Gary Caldwell emphasized the need for resilience following a string of defeats in October and November. Their squad has been stretched by injuries, particularly in midfield, which has forced tactical adjustments. Despite these setbacks, Exeter managed to secure a hard-fought draw against Barnsley and a narrow win over Shrewsbury, showing flashes of determination. The club’s young talents, such as Sonny Cox, have been given more opportunities, reflecting Caldwell’s long-term vision even as short-term results remain mixed.

Peterborough
Doncaster Rovers approach their clash with Peterborough United under pressure, having endured a difficult run of results in League One. In the past two months, Grant McCann’s side have struggled to find consistency, with their last league win dating back to early autumn. More recently, they were beaten 2-1 away at Lincoln City and lost by the same scoreline at home to Barnsley, while also grinding out a goalless draw against Stevenage. Off the pitch, headlines were made when disorder followed the Barnsley fixture, leading to arrests in Doncaster city centre. Despite these setbacks, McCann has emphasized defensive resilience, pointing to the Stevenage stalemate as evidence that his team can frustrate stronger opponents, though attacking shortcomings remain a concern.
Peterborough United, meanwhile, have experienced a resurgence under new manager Luke Williams, who replaced Darren Ferguson earlier this month. The Posh have strung together an impressive sequence of victories, including a 3-0 triumph over league leaders Stockport County, with goals from Ben Woods, Kyrell Lisbie, and Brandon Khela. This followed a 5-0 demolition of AFC Wimbledon and an FA Cup win against Cardiff City, marking a remarkable turnaround for a side that had previously languished at the bottom of the table. Williams has spoken about the psychological boost of climbing out of the relegation zone, and his squad now looks far more confident, with attacking flair returning to their play. Even weather disruptions, such as the threat of postponement due to Storm Claudia, have not dampened the optimism surrounding the club.

Northampton
The upcoming clash between Plymouth Argyle and Northampton Town at Home Park promises to be a fascinating encounter in League One. Plymouth have been in the headlines recently, not only for their fluctuating form but also due to reports of Gareth Bale’s involvement in discussions around a potential takeover of the club, which has added intrigue to their off-field narrative. On the pitch, Plymouth’s last two months have been a mixed bag, with notable wins against Coventry and Preston, but also defeats to Leeds and Middlesbrough. Their resilience at home has been a key factor, and the Green Army will be eager to see their side bounce back strongly in front of their supporters. Northampton, meanwhile, have endured a tougher stretch, suffering heavy losses to Millwall and Norwich in the summer, though they did manage a morale-boosting victory over Shrewsbury in April. Both teams arrive at this fixture with plenty to prove, and the stakes are high as the season edges towards its decisive phase.
Looking at Plymouth’s recent run, their ability to score consistently has stood out, with goals coming in almost every match despite occasional defensive lapses. Their 3-1 triumph over Coventry highlighted their attacking flair, while the narrow 2-1 win at Preston showed their capacity to grind out results under pressure. However, defeats against Leeds and Middlesbrough exposed vulnerabilities at the back, something manager Ian Foster will be keen to address before facing Northampton. The squad has shown depth, with players like Bali Mumba and Morgan Whittaker stepping up in crucial moments. The atmosphere at Home Park has remained vibrant, and with no major injury concerns reported, Plymouth are expected to field a strong lineup. Their recent form suggests they are capable of dictating the tempo, especially against a Northampton side that has struggled to maintain consistency away from home.

Burnley
Brentford enter this clash with a mixture of optimism and concern. Over the past two months, the Bees have shown flashes of brilliance, particularly at home, where they stunned both Manchester United and Liverpool with convincing victories. Igor Thiago has been a standout performer, scoring consistently and even netting a penalty against Brighton in their most recent outing, though Brentford ultimately fell 2-1 after a late collapse. Off the pitch, the club has been rocked by the news that Fabio Carvalho suffered a season-ending ACL injury, joining Antoni Milambo on the long-term injury list. Despite these setbacks, manager Keith Andrews has emphasized resilience, pointing to the squad’s depth and the return of Josh Dasilva to training as reasons for optimism. Brentford’s form at the Gtech Community Stadium remains strong, but their away record continues to be a stumbling block, with four defeats in five trips this season.
Burnley, meanwhile, approach this fixture under pressure, hovering near the relegation zone after a string of inconsistent results. In November, they managed a spirited 3-2 win away at West Ham, but defeats to Arsenal and Chelsea have highlighted their defensive fragility. Their most recent match, a 2-0 home loss to Chelsea, saw Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernández punish them, leaving manager Scott Parker searching for solutions. Burnley’s squad has shown flashes of promise, with Loum Tchaouna and Zian Flemming offering attacking sparks, but the team has struggled to maintain momentum. The Clarets’ return to the Premier League has been challenging, and their inability to consistently score against top opposition has left them vulnerable. Turf Moor faithful remain hopeful, but the upcoming trip to Brentford represents a daunting task given their struggles against sides with strong home records.

Everton’s season has been marked by turbulence both on and off the pitch, with the club recently facing renewed scrutiny over financial regulations and the ongoing battle to secure safety in the Premier League. In the past two months, Sean Dyche’s side has shown resilience despite injuries to key players such as Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has struggled with consistency. Their recent fixtures included a hard-fought draw against Aston Villa and a narrow defeat to Manchester United, where defensive lapses proved costly. The Toffees have leaned heavily on midfielders like Abdoulaye Doucouré to provide energy and drive, while Jordan Pickford continues to be a crucial figure between the posts. The atmosphere at Goodison Park remains tense, with fans demanding both stability and results as the season edges closer to its decisive stages.
Newcastle United, meanwhile, have been riding a wave of momentum under Eddie Howe, though their campaign has not been without challenges. Over the last two months, the Magpies have dealt with injuries to important players such as Alexander Isak and Sven Botman, yet they have still managed to grind out results. Their recent matches included a thrilling victory over Chelsea and a spirited performance against Tottenham Hotspur, where attacking flair from Anthony Gordon and Miguel Almirón stood out. Newcastle’s ability to balance European commitments with domestic fixtures has been tested, but their squad depth has allowed them to remain competitive. The return of Bruno Guimarães from suspension has added stability to their midfield, giving Howe more options to dictate play and maintain control in high-pressure encounters.

Manchester City head into their clash with Leeds United in the Premier League with momentum and confidence, having continued their strong form across domestic and European competitions over the past two months. Pep Guardiola’s side recently celebrated Erling Haaland’s return to full fitness, which has been a major boost after he missed some games earlier in the autumn. City also secured qualification for the Champions League knockout stages with wins against Copenhagen and RB Leipzig, while in the league they overcame Chelsea in a thrilling 4-4 draw and defeated Bournemouth 6-1 at the Etihad. The squad’s depth has been highlighted by the performances of Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez, who have stepped up when needed, ensuring City remain firmly in the title race alongside Arsenal and Liverpool.
Leeds United, meanwhile, continue to battle for consistency in their Premier League campaign. Over the past two months, they have shown flashes of resilience but also struggled against stronger opposition. Leeds managed a hard-fought draw against Tottenham and picked up a crucial victory against Nottingham Forest, but they were undone by defeats to Manchester United and West Ham. Daniel Farke has been working to stabilize the team after their promotion back to the top flight, with young talents like Archie Gray and Crysencio Summerville providing energy and creativity.

Over the past two months, the Black Cats have been busy strengthening their squad depth, with manager Michael Beale emphasizing the importance of balancing youthful energy with experienced leadership. Their recent fixtures have shown flashes of promise, including a hard-fought draw against Aston Villa and a spirited performance in a narrow defeat to Chelsea.

Fulham
Tottenham Hotspur welcome Fulham to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in late November, with both sides entering the fixture under contrasting circumstances. Spurs have endured a turbulent couple of months, highlighted by their heavy 4-1 defeat to Arsenal in the North London Derby, where Eberechi Eze’s hat-trick exposed defensive frailties. Injuries have compounded their struggles, with key players like Mohammed Kudus and Randal Kolo Muani sidelined, leaving Thomas Frank with limited attacking options. Despite these setbacks, Tottenham showed resilience in Europe, thrashing FC Copenhagen 4-0 in the Champions League earlier this month. Their domestic form, however, has been inconsistent, with a 2-2 draw against Manchester United and a narrow 1-0 loss to Chelsea reflecting their inability to sustain momentum. The upcoming clash against Fulham is seen as an opportunity to steady the ship and reassert their top-four ambitions.
Fulham, meanwhile, arrive with their own set of challenges, hovering near the relegation zone after a mixed run of results. Marco Silva’s side did manage a morale-boosting 3-0 victory over Wolves at Craven Cottage, but defeats to Everton and Newcastle have kept them under pressure. Their most recent outing, a 1-0 win against Sunderland, offered a glimpse of their fighting spirit, with Raul Jiménez finding the net to secure three crucial points. Off the pitch, Fulham have been in the headlines as Silva has reportedly been offered a substantial contract extension, signaling the club’s intent to maintain stability despite their struggles. The Cottagers’ away form remains a concern, though, with lapses in concentration often costing them valuable points. Facing Tottenham away from home will be a stern test, but Fulham have shown they can score against stronger opposition, which could make this encounter more competitive than expected.

Toulouse
Marseille enter this clash against Toulouse in scintillating form, having recently demolished Nice 5-1 away from home and comfortably dispatched Brest 3-0 at the Velodrome. Roberto De Zerbi’s side has surged to the top of Ligue 1, powered by Mason Greenwood’s prolific scoring run and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s leadership in attack. News around the club has been dominated by their title challenge and their upcoming Champions League fixtures, including a high-profile meeting with Newcastle United. Marseille’s confidence is sky-high, and their attacking depth has made them one of the most feared sides in France this season, with Greenwood, Angel Gomes, and Timothy Weah all contributing heavily in recent weeks.
Toulouse, on the other hand, arrive in Marseille with a more turbulent backdrop. Their most recent outing ended in a narrow 0-1 defeat at home to Angers, highlighting their inconsistency in front of goal. While they have shown flashes of resilience earlier in the season, Toulouse’s campaign has been overshadowed by off-field issues, including winger Aron Dønnum being investigated for an alleged racist gesture in a match against Le Havre earlier this month. Despite these distractions, Toulouse remain mid-table, but their lack of cutting edge in attack has been evident, with only 18 goals scored across their first twelve matches. Carles Martínez Novell’s side will need to rediscover their spark quickly if they are to trouble Marseille’s high-flying defense.

Monaco welcome Paris Saint-Germain in what promises to be one of the standout fixtures of Ligue 1’s late November calendar. The Principality side have had a mixed run of form in recent weeks, with manager Adi Hütter emphasizing the need for greater defensive stability after conceding heavily in certain matches. In October, Monaco suffered a setback against Lille, losing 2-0, but bounced back with a spirited 2-0 victory over Strasbourg. Their attacking duo of Wissam Ben Yedder and Folarin Balogun remain central to their ambitions, though injuries to key midfielders have slightly disrupted their rhythm. The Stade Louis II crowd will be eager to see their side rise to the occasion against the reigning champions, especially given the high stakes in the race for European qualification.
PSG, meanwhile, arrive in Monaco with momentum firmly on their side. Luis Enrique’s team has been in strong form over the past two months, highlighted by a convincing 3-0 win over Montpellier and a hard-fought 2-1 victory against Rennes. Kylian Mbappé continues to dominate headlines, not only for his goals but also for ongoing speculation about his contract situation, which has been a recurring theme in French football media. The Parisian giants also impressed in the Champions League, defeating Real Sociedad 2-0 at the Parc des Princes earlier this month, showing their ability to balance domestic and European commitments. With Ousmane Dembélé and Vitinha adding creativity, PSG’s attack looks sharper than ever, and their defensive line anchored by Marquinhos has shown resilience.

Auxerre
Paris FC’s rise in Ligue 1 has been one of the more intriguing stories of the season. Having only secured promotion last year, they have quickly established themselves as a side capable of competing with established top-flight teams. In the past two months, Paris FC have been involved in high-scoring encounters, most notably their 4-2 defeat against Lille, where despite the loss they showed attacking flair and resilience. Their campaign has been characterized by both prolific scoring and defensive vulnerabilities, with 45 goals across their first 13 matches. The club’s ambition is clear, and their home form at Stade Sébastien Charléty has been solid, winning six of their last ten fixtures. This upcoming match against Auxerre is seen as another opportunity to consolidate their mid-table position and push further away from relegation concerns.
Auxerre, on the other hand, have endured a difficult stretch in Ligue 1 since returning to the top division. Over the past two months, their form has been inconsistent, with several losses on the road highlighting their struggle to adapt to the pace and quality of the league. They recently fell to a narrow defeat against Rennes and were unable to secure points against Montpellier, leaving them hovering near the bottom of the standings. Their away record is particularly concerning, with seven defeats in their last ten trips, and their inability to convert chances has been a recurring theme. Auxerre’s reliance on set pieces, especially corners, has been one of their few consistent attacking outlets, but their defensive frailties have often undone any progress. This clash against Paris FC represents a chance to prove they can compete against mid-table opposition, though the odds are stacked against them.

Bayer Leverkusen enter this clash with Borussia Dortmund riding a wave of confidence after a strong November. Under Kasper Hjulmand, the team has shown resilience, bouncing back from a heavy defeat to Bayern Munich with emphatic wins. They crushed Heidenheim 6-0 at home, followed by a gritty 1-0 Champions League victory away at Benfica, and most recently a 3-1 triumph over Wolfsburg. These results have kept them firmly in the Bundesliga’s top positions, while also stabilizing their European campaign. News around the club has focused on their resurgence after Erik ten Hag’s departure earlier in the season, with Hjulmand’s tactical adjustments bringing balance and attacking flair. Patrik Schick and Alex Grimaldo have been standout performers, contributing goals and assists that underline Leverkusen’s attacking depth.
Borussia Dortmund, meanwhile, have endured a more turbulent run in the past two months. Their Champions League campaign saw a bruising 4-1 defeat at Manchester City, exposing defensive frailties that have lingered in domestic fixtures. In the Bundesliga, they were held to a 1-1 draw at Hamburg and most recently played out a dramatic 3-3 stalemate against Stuttgart, where Karim Adeyemi’s late strike was canceled out by Deniz Undav in stoppage time. Despite flashes of attacking brilliance, Dortmund’s inability to close games has been a recurring theme. Injuries to key defenders like Niklas Süle have compounded their struggles, leaving Niko Kovač searching for stability. The team’s attacking trio of Adeyemi, Julian Brandt, and Serhou Guirassy has shown promise, but defensive lapses continue to overshadow their progress.

Bayern Munich enter this fixture against St. Pauli in commanding form, having maintained their position at the top of the Bundesliga table with a string of impressive results. Over the past two months, the Bavarian giants have shown consistency, defeating Borussia Mönchengladbach and Union Berlin while also securing a hard-fought draw against RB Leipzig. Their attacking line, led by Harry Kane, has been prolific, averaging more than three goals per game in recent outings.

The Allianz Arena is expected to be packed, as Bayern look to extend their unbeaten streak and reinforce their dominance in the league.
St. Pauli, meanwhile, face a daunting challenge as they prepare to meet the reigning champions.

News from the club has highlighted internal concerns about squad depth and the need for tactical adjustments to halt their slide. Despite flashes of creativity from their attacking players, St. Pauli have lacked the resilience to compete against stronger opponents, and their confidence has been visibly shaken.

Hoffenheim enter this clash with Augsburg riding a wave of confidence after a strong run of results in November. Their most recent outing against Mainz ended in a 1-1 draw, but prior to that they had strung together four consecutive victories, showcasing both attacking flair and defensive resilience. Fisnik Asllani has been in the headlines after Bayern Munich’s interest in him became concrete, with the young striker already netting five goals and two assists this season. Hoffenheim’s ability to consistently score more than two goals per game in recent weeks has made them one of the more dangerous sides in the Bundesliga, and their sixth-place standing reflects the momentum they are building under Christian Ilzer. The PreZero Arena will be buzzing with anticipation as fans expect their side to continue this upward trajectory.
Augsburg, meanwhile, have endured a more turbulent period but managed to secure a morale-boosting 1-0 win over Hamburg on November 22. That victory was crucial, as it ended a sequence of defeats and lifted them slightly away from the relegation zone. Just before that, they had fallen 3-2 to Stuttgart in a spirited contest, showing that while their defense remains fragile, their attack can still trouble opponents. Anton Kade’s goal against Hamburg was a highlight, though Augsburg’s overall scoring record remains modest at around 1.4 goals per game, while conceding an average of 2.4. Sandro Wagner’s men will need to tighten up defensively if they are to stand a chance against Hoffenheim’s potent frontline, and their away form has been particularly concerning, with several losses on the road.

Union Berlin enter this clash with Heidenheim at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei carrying a sense of cautious optimism. Over the past two months, Union have shown resilience despite mixed results, including a thrilling 4-3 away victory against Eintracht Frankfurt in September and a narrow 2-1 home win over Stuttgart in August. However, they also suffered setbacks, such as a 3-0 defeat to Borussia Dortmund and a 2-4 loss to Hoffenheim. Recent news around the club has focused on their defensive solidity at home, where they have conceded just one goal per game in their last three outings, all of which ended in draws. Coach Steffen Baumgart has emphasized the importance of tightening up at the back while maintaining attacking flair, especially with Union currently sitting mid-table and eager to climb higher before the winter break.
Heidenheim, on the other hand, arrive in Berlin struggling to find momentum. Their form over the past two months has been poor, with consecutive losses leaving them bottom of the Bundesliga standings. Matches such as the 2-0 win over Union Berlin back in January and the 3-0 triumph in May 2025 are reminders of their potential, but recent performances tell a different story. In their last four league games, Heidenheim have failed to secure a victory, recording defeats against stronger sides and a solitary draw that did little to ease pressure on coach Frank Schmidt. News surrounding the club has highlighted their lack of cutting edge in attack and defensive frailties, which have combined to create a worrying trend. With morale low and confidence fragile, Heidenheim face a daunting task against a Union side that thrives on home advantage.

FC Koln
Werder Bremen enter their upcoming Bundesliga clash with FC Köln in a period of cautious optimism. Over the past two months, the club has been dealing with mixed fortunes, including a notable victory against Heidenheim and a hard-fought draw with Hoffenheim. However, they also suffered defeats to Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, which highlighted the gap between Bremen and the league’s top sides. News surrounding the team has focused on the return of key striker Marvin Ducksch, who recently overcame a minor injury scare, and the growing influence of midfielder Jens Stage, whose performances have added stability in the center of the pitch. The squad’s resilience has been praised, especially as they continue to balance defensive vulnerabilities with attacking intent.
FC Köln, on the other hand, remain in a precarious position near the bottom of the Bundesliga table. Their last two months have been marked by struggles, including defeats to RB Leipzig and Union Berlin, though they did manage to secure a morale-boosting win against Mainz. The team has been in the spotlight due to managerial pressure on Steffen Baumgart, with speculation about his future intensifying after a series of poor results. Köln’s attacking line has been inconsistent, with Davie Selke finding it difficult to deliver consistent goals, while the defense has been exposed repeatedly, conceding heavily in several matches. Recent news also highlighted the club’s efforts to strengthen their squad depth in January, as they look to avoid being dragged deeper into the relegation battle.

Lazio
AC Milan enter this clash with Lazio riding a wave of confidence after their recent Derby della Madonnina triumph over Inter, where Christian Pulisic’s decisive strike sealed a 1-0 victory at San Siro. That win was not only symbolic in the title race but also reinforced Massimiliano Allegri’s tactical discipline, with Mike Maignan’s heroics in goal earning widespread praise. In the past two months, Milan have shown resilience, drawing 2-2 away at Parma and edging Roma 1-0 at home earlier in November. Their consistency has kept them firmly in the Scudetto conversation, with Rafael Leao and Pulisic both contributing crucial goals. Allegri’s side has lost only once in the league this season, and the narrative around Milan is increasingly one of a team that has rediscovered its winning mentality, blending youthful energy with experienced leadership.
Lazio, meanwhile, have had a more turbulent journey but arrive at San Siro with renewed optimism after their 2-0 victory over Lecce on November 23. Matteo Guendouzi and Tijjani Noslin provided the goals in that match, which was a welcome relief for Maurizio Sarri’s squad following a mixed run of results. Earlier in November, Lazio defeated Cagliari 2-0 at home, but they stumbled against Inter, losing 2-0 in a match that exposed defensive frailties. Their campaign has been marked by inconsistency, yet Sarri’s tactical adjustments and the return of key players from injury have given the team a more balanced look. The Roman side has shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in midfield, where Guendouzi and Zaccagni have been instrumental in driving forward play.

Verona
Genoa approach their clash with Verona in Serie A with a sense of stability that has characterized their autumn campaign. Over the past two months, Genoa have managed to keep themselves clear of the relegation zone, showing resilience against stronger opponents. Notably, they secured a valuable draw against Fiorentina and followed it up with a gritty performance against Lazio, where their defensive organization was praised despite not finding the net. Recent news around the club has focused on the return of Mateo Retegui from injury, which has given coach Alberto Gilardino more attacking options, though the team’s overall scoring record remains modest. The Rossoblù have leaned heavily on their defensive discipline, and their supporters are hopeful that this consistency can carry them through the winter fixtures.
Verona, meanwhile, have endured a more turbulent period, with headlines in the past two months dominated by their battle to climb out of the lower reaches of the table. The Gialloblu recently earned a morale-boosting victory over Lecce, which was followed by a narrow defeat against Juventus where they showed commendable fight but lacked finishing quality. Their struggles in front of goal have been a recurring theme, and coach Marco Baroni has emphasized the need for greater composure in the final third. Verona’s defensive line, however, has shown signs of improvement, particularly in their draw against Udinese, where they managed to frustrate their opponents for long stretches. The team’s resilience has been a talking point in Italian media, with many noting that Verona’s survival hopes rest on grinding out points in tight matches.

Cagliari
Juventus enter their clash with Cagliari in Serie A with renewed confidence after a turbulent start to the season that has gradually stabilized. Over the past two months, the Bianconeri have been in the headlines for their defensive solidity and the return of key players from injury, including the steady performances of Bremer and the growing influence of Federico Chiesa in attack. Juventus recently secured a hard-fought victory against Torino in the Derby della Mole and followed it up with a disciplined draw against Inter, showing their ability to grind out results against top opposition. The team’s focus has been on maintaining consistency, as manager Massimiliano Allegri continues to emphasize balance between attack and defense, a theme that has defined their campaign so far.
Cagliari, on the other hand, have been battling to stay clear of the relegation zone, but recent weeks have brought some optimism. Under Claudio Ranieri, the Sardinian side has shown resilience, particularly in their dramatic comeback win against Frosinone and their gritty draw against Napoli. News surrounding Cagliari has highlighted Ranieri’s determination to instill belief in his squad, with players like Gianluca Lapadula returning to fitness and offering more options in attack. Their defensive organization has been tested against stronger sides, but the team has demonstrated that they can frustrate opponents with compact lines and quick counterattacks. The past two months have been about survival and momentum, and Cagliari’s recent performances suggest they are not to be underestimated.

Udinese
Parma enter this clash with Udinese carrying both momentum and concern. The Emilian side recently stunned Hellas Verona with a 2-1 away victory, thanks to Mateo Pellegrino’s brace, which lifted them slightly above the relegation zone. Just before that, they held AC Milan to a thrilling 2-2 draw, showing resilience against one of the league’s top contenders. However, the big news from Parma in the past two weeks has been the injury to their standout goalkeeper Zion Suzuki, who fractured his hand against Milan and is now sidelined for several months. His absence leaves coach Carlos Cuesta scrambling for a reliable replacement, with the club reportedly exploring free-agent options. This situation adds uncertainty to a team already battling for survival, but their recent performances suggest they are not short of fighting spirit.
Udinese, meanwhile, arrive in Parma after a difficult stretch of results that has tempered their early-season optimism. They were beaten 3-0 at home by Bologna in their most recent outing, a match where Tommaso Pobega’s quickfire brace and Bernardeschi’s late strike exposed defensive frailties. Before that, Udinese fell 2-0 away to Roma, showing little attacking spark against a side chasing the Scudetto. Their last win came earlier in November when they edged Atalanta 1-0 at home, a result that briefly lifted morale. The Friulani have shown flashes of quality, with Nicolo Zaniolo contributing goals earlier in the campaign, but consistency remains elusive. Coach Kosta Runjaic must now rally his squad to rediscover their balance, especially with the club’s 129th anniversary looming at the end of November, a symbolic moment they will want to honor with a strong performance.

Heracles
Fortuna Sittard enter this clash with Heracles Almelo having shown mixed form over the past two months, balancing resilience with occasional lapses. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw against Sparta Rotterdam on November 22, where Kaj Sierhuis found the net to secure a point. Earlier in November, they impressed with a 2-0 home victory over Heerenveen, displaying defensive solidity and attacking sharpness. However, late October saw them fall 5-2 away to PSV Eindhoven, underlining the challenges they face against top-tier opposition. These results reflect a team capable of grinding out points but still vulnerable to lapses against stronger sides, a narrative that has defined their mid-table standing this season.
Heracles Almelo, meanwhile, have experienced a rollercoaster of results in recent weeks, oscillating between emphatic wins and heavy defeats. Their latest triumph came on November 22, when they defeated Go Ahead Eagles 4-2 at home, a performance that highlighted their attacking prowess. Just weeks earlier, they stunned PEC Zwolle with an extraordinary 8-2 victory, a match that showcased their ability to dominate when confidence is high. Yet inconsistency remains a concern, as evidenced by their 7-0 thrashing at the hands of Feyenoord in October and a 3-0 loss to Volendam. This unpredictability makes Heracles a dangerous opponent but also one prone to collapses when pressure mounts.

Alverca
Casa Pia enter this clash against Alverca with a mix of resilience and controversy surrounding their recent performances. In early November, they drew 2-2 away at Benfica in a match that sparked debate over a penalty decision, with refereeing experts later suggesting the call was incorrect. Just before that, Casa Pia endured a heavy 5-3 home defeat to Estrela Amadora, showing both attacking promise and defensive fragility. Their October run included a 4-0 loss to Braga and a 2-2 draw with Estoril, underlining inconsistency but also a capacity to trouble stronger sides. Transfer news has also kept the club in the spotlight, with players like Xander Severina joining on loan and Abdu Conté being added to bolster the squad. These developments have given Casa Pia a slightly refreshed look as they prepare for this important fixture.
Alverca, meanwhile, have been carving out their own narrative in Liga Portugal. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw against Rio Ave on November 8, a result that highlighted their ability to stay competitive even when under pressure. Prior to that, they secured a 2-0 win over Sporting at the end of October, a statement victory that boosted confidence. However, inconsistency remains a theme, as seen in their 5-1 win over Gil Vicente followed by a 4-0 loss to Braga. Alverca’s squad has been dealing with injuries and suspensions, but the team continues to show flashes of quality, particularly in attack. Their history as a club with top-flight experience is now being tested in this campaign, where survival and mid-table stability are the immediate goals.

Famalicao
The upcoming Liga Portugal clash between Moreirense and Famalicão is shaping up to be a tense and balanced encounter. Moreirense have had a mixed run of form in recent weeks, with their November fixtures including a narrow 2-1 defeat away to Braga and a hard-fought win earlier in the month against Arouca. The team has also been active in the transfer market, bringing in Vasco Sousa on loan from Porto and Diogo Travassos from Sporting, which has added depth to their squad. These moves reflect the club’s intent to stabilize their campaign after a series of inconsistent results. The fixture against Famalicão comes at a crucial time, as Moreirense look to regain momentum before facing heavyweights like Benfica and Estoril in December.
Famalicão, meanwhile, have also experienced fluctuating fortunes in the past two months. Their most recent matches include a narrow 0-1 home defeat to Porto on November 9, a solid 1-0 away win against Nacional on November 1, and a convincing 2-0 victory over Guimarães in late October. However, they have also been prone to stalemates, such as the 1-1 draw against Arouca and a goalless tie with Rio Ave earlier in the season. The team has seen some squad adjustments too, with Otso Liimatta returning from loan and Antoine Joujou joining on loan from Parma, signaling their intent to strengthen attacking options. Despite these changes, Famalicão’s challenge remains consistency, as they often struggle to convert possession into goals against stronger opponents.

Benfica
Nacional prepare to host Benfica in Liga Portugal with the Estádio da Madeira expected to be buzzing with anticipation. The home side have been battling to stay competitive in the top flight, and recent weeks have seen them struggle to find consistency. In October, Nacional picked up a valuable point against Estoril but then fell short against Braga, conceding late goals that highlighted their defensive frailties. The team’s manager has emphasized resilience and discipline, but the squad has been hampered by injuries to key midfielders, making it difficult to maintain rhythm. Supporters remain hopeful that the team can rise to the occasion against one of Portugal’s giants, even though the odds are stacked against them.
Benfica, on the other hand, enter the fixture in strong form, having enjoyed a productive run in both domestic and European competitions. In late October, they secured a convincing win over Casa Pia, followed by a hard-fought Champions League draw against Inter Milan that showcased their ability to compete at the highest level. November brought further momentum, with victories over Portimonense and a narrow triumph against Sporting in the Lisbon derby, which reinforced their title credentials. The squad has been boosted by the return of Ángel Di María, who has been instrumental in creating chances, while Gonçalo Ramos continues to impress with his finishing. The team’s depth and tactical flexibility have made them one of the most feared sides in Portugal.

Academico Viseu enter this clash with a sense of momentum after a busy November that saw them progress in the Taça de Portugal and continue to show resilience in Liga Portugal 2. Earlier this month, they defeated Lusitania Lourosa 3-2 in a thrilling contest, followed by a commanding 5-1 away win against Leixões, which highlighted their attacking depth. More recently, they edged Chaves 1-0 and overcame Gil Vicente 2-1, results that have lifted confidence within the squad. News surrounding the team has focused on their ability to balance cup commitments with league form, and their coach Sérgio Vieira has praised the squad’s adaptability. The club’s supporters are optimistic, noting that the team has been scoring consistently while tightening up defensively, a balance that could prove decisive in this fixture against Penafiel.
Penafiel, meanwhile, have had a mixed run of results in recent weeks, but they remain a dangerous opponent. In October and November, they recorded a 2-0 victory over Felgueiras and stunned Benfica B with a 2-0 away win, showing their ability to rise to big occasions. However, they also suffered setbacks, including a 3-2 defeat to Leixões and a 2-0 loss against Chaves, which exposed some defensive vulnerabilities. Their most recent outings included a 1-1 draw against Sporting B and a 3-1 win away at Vizela, results that underline their unpredictability. Ahead of their clash with Marítimo on November 23, Penafiel were in the spotlight for their resilience in away fixtures, with analysts noting their capacity to frustrate opponents even when not in peak form.

St. Mirren
Dundee FC enter this clash at Dens Park with a mixed run of form that has left supporters both hopeful and cautious. Over the past two months, the club has struggled to find consistency, suffering defeats against Hibernian most recently on 22 November with a 2-0 scoreline, and earlier setbacks against Aberdeen and Hearts. However, Dundee did manage to secure a narrow win over Motherwell in late October, which provided a brief lift in morale. News around the club has focused on manager Tony Docherty’s attempts to stabilize the defense, as the side has conceded heavily in recent fixtures. The team’s position in the lower half of the table reflects the urgent need for points, and the upcoming match against St. Mirren is seen as a pivotal opportunity to regain momentum before the winter fixtures pile up.
St. Mirren, on the other hand, have shown flashes of resilience despite their own inconsistencies. In the past two months, they recorded a valuable victory over Livingston, while also battling to a draw against Ross County. Their most recent outing was a narrow defeat to Rangers, which highlighted both their defensive organization and their struggle to convert chances at the other end. News surrounding the club has emphasized manager Stephen Robinson’s tactical adjustments, particularly in midfield, where he has sought to balance creativity with discipline. St. Mirren’s away form has been respectable, and their ability to grind out results on the road has kept them hovering around mid-table, giving them confidence heading into this fixture against Dundee.

Dundee Utd
Kilmarnock enter this fixture with a mixture of frustration and determination, having endured a difficult run of results in recent weeks. Their defeat to Celtic earlier this month highlighted defensive frailties, while a narrow draw against Motherwell showed resilience but lacked the cutting edge needed to secure three points. In the past two months, the club has been dealing with injury concerns to key midfielders, which has disrupted their rhythm. Manager Derek McInnes has emphasized the importance of tightening up at the back and rediscovering their home advantage, as Rugby Park has traditionally been a fortress for Killie. The supporters remain hopeful that the team can turn the tide, especially with the Premiership table tightening and every point becoming crucial.
Dundee United, on the other hand, have shown flashes of promise despite inconsistency. Their recent draw with St Johnstone and a hard-fought win against Ross County demonstrated their ability to grind out results, though a loss to Aberdeen exposed vulnerabilities in their defensive transitions. Over the past two months, United have been buoyed by the return of striker Tony Watt, whose presence adds much-needed firepower to their attack. Manager Jim Goodwin has spoken about building momentum and ensuring the squad maintains focus during this busy period of fixtures. The Terrors have been more effective away from home than in previous seasons, and their supporters will be eager to see them capitalize on Kilmarnock’s shaky form.

Hearts
Motherwell head into this clash at Fir Park with a mixed run of form that has kept them hovering around mid-table. In recent weeks, the Steelmen have struggled to find consistency, alternating between spirited performances and disappointing defeats. Their last two months have seen them pick up a notable win against St Johnstone but also suffer setbacks against Aberdeen and Rangers. The team’s defensive frailties have been highlighted repeatedly, with goals conceded in nearly every match, yet they remain dangerous going forward thanks to their ability to score at home. Off the pitch, Motherwell have been in the news for their continued push to integrate younger academy players into the first team, a strategy that has been praised by supporters but questioned by pundits who feel experience is lacking in key areas.
Hearts, meanwhile, arrive in Lanarkshire as league leaders, having enjoyed a strong autumn period that has reinforced their credentials as genuine title contenders. Their last two months have included a hard-fought victory over Hibernian in the Edinburgh derby and a narrow defeat away to Aberdeen, which served as a reminder that even top sides can be vulnerable. Robbie Neilson’s men have been praised for their tactical flexibility, often switching formations mid-game to adapt to opponents. Recent headlines have focused on their attacking trio, who have been in excellent form, with Lawrence Shankland continuing to deliver crucial goals. Hearts’ ability to grind out results even when not at their best has been a defining feature of their campaign so far, and they will look to extend that resilience against Motherwell.

Orlando Pirates
Durban City are preparing for one of their biggest fixtures of the season as they welcome Orlando Pirates to the Moses Mabhida Stadium on November 29, 2025. The club confirmed earlier this month that the venue was chosen again after the success of last month’s sold-out match, which drew a capacity crowd and created a memorable atmosphere. Chairman Farook Kadodia emphasized the importance of giving fans another high-profile event in Durban, highlighting the stadium’s iconic status in South African football. Durban City have had a mixed run in the Premiership over the past two months, recording a win against TS Galaxy, a loss to AmaZulu, and a draw against Polokwane. Their form has been inconsistent, but the team remains competitive, sitting mid-table with 18 points from 12 matches. Coach Zipho Dlangalala has been working to stabilize performances, particularly in defense, where the side has conceded nine goals so far this campaign.
Orlando Pirates arrive in Durban in strong form, having climbed to second place in the Premiership standings with 22 points from 10 matches. Over the past two months, Pirates have shown resilience and attacking flair, securing victories against Kaizer Chiefs and Sekhukhune while drawing against Sundowns in a tightly contested encounter. Gavin Hunt’s men have been praised for their balance between defense and attack, with only five goals conceded and 14 scored. Key players such as Evidence Makgopa and Patrick Maswanganyi have been instrumental, contributing assists and goals that have kept the team in contention for the top spot. Pirates’ recent momentum has made them one of the most feared sides in the league, and their supporters will expect another commanding performance in Durban. However, the team has also shown occasional struggles in breaking down compact defenses, something Durban City may look to exploit.

Polokwane City enter this clash with TS Galaxy carrying a mixed bag of recent performances that highlight both resilience and inconsistency. In November, Polokwane managed a hard-fought 1-0 victory away at AmaZulu, showing their ability to grind out results under pressure. Just days later, they drew 1-1 at home against Richards Bay, a match where their defensive organization was tested but ultimately held firm. Earlier in October, they suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Orlando Pirates, underlining the challenges they face against top-tier opposition. Off the pitch, Polokwane has been in the spotlight as the city prepared to host Kaizer Chiefs versus Zamalek SC in the CAF Confederation Cup, an event that brought excitement to the Peter Mokaba Stadium and reminded fans of the city’s growing football profile. These developments have kept Polokwane in the headlines, adding extra anticipation to their Premiership fixtures.
TS Galaxy, meanwhile, have been navigating a season of transition, with captain Mlungisi Mbunjana emphasizing the youthful revolution within the squad after the departure of key players like Lebone Seema and Kamogelo Sebelebele. Despite these changes, Galaxy have shown flashes of promise. On November 23, they secured a 2-1 victory over Golden Arrows, with Mory Cheick Keita scoring late to seal the win. Earlier in the month, they fell 1-0 to Mamelodi Sundowns, a result that highlighted their defensive vulnerabilities against the league’s strongest side. However, they bounced back with a convincing 2-0 triumph over Stellenbosch on November 2, proving their ability to respond positively after setbacks. The team’s upcoming rescheduled clash against Kaizer Chiefs in December has also drawn attention, as it will test their progress against one of the country’s giants. These storylines frame Galaxy as a side in flux but capable of surprising opponents.

Oviedo
Atlético Madrid enter this clash with Real Oviedo carrying the weight of expectation after a turbulent but resilient run in LaLiga over the past two months. Diego Simeone’s side has been in the headlines recently due to Antoine Griezmann’s injury concerns and Álvaro Morata’s fluctuating form, while the club also confirmed contract extensions for key defenders to secure long-term stability. Their recent fixtures have been a mixed bag: a hard-fought draw against Villarreal, a narrow win over Mallorca, and a disappointing defeat to Barcelona that highlighted defensive lapses. Despite these ups and downs, Atlético remain firmly in the hunt for Champions League qualification, and Simeone has emphasized the importance of consistency as the season heads into its decisive phase.
Real Oviedo, meanwhile, have been making waves in Spanish football, not only because of their performances in the Segunda División but also due to their Copa del Rey exploits. In the past two months, Oviedo stunned many by eliminating a top-flight side in the cup, showcasing their ability to rise to big occasions. Their league form has been steady, with victories over Racing Santander and Burgos, though they stumbled against Sporting Gijón in a heated Asturian derby. News around the club has also focused on the development of young striker Masca, who has been tipped as one of the emerging talents in Spanish football. The team’s confidence is growing, and their supporters believe they can test Atlético’s defensive organization.

Alaves
Barcelona host Alaves in LaLiga this weekend, with both sides entering the clash under very different circumstances. The Catalan giants remain in pursuit of Real Madrid at the top of the table, sitting third and still within striking distance despite some inconsistent spells. Over the past two months, Barcelona have been in the headlines for their injury concerns, particularly with Pedri and Frenkie de Jong returning gradually to fitness, while Lamine Yamal has continued to impress as one of the brightest young stars in Europe. Hansi Flick’s men have also been adapting to life at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, where they have carved out narrow but crucial wins, including a 1-0 victory over Alaves back in February and a hard-fought triumph against Villarreal earlier this month. The focus now is on maintaining momentum as the season edges closer to its decisive phase.
Alaves, on the other hand, approach this fixture with survival on their minds. Sitting precariously above the relegation zone, they have endured a difficult run of results in recent weeks. Their last two months have seen mixed fortunes: a gritty draw against Getafe, a narrow defeat to Athletic Bilbao, and a much-needed win over Granada that gave them breathing space in the standings. Luis García Plaza’s side have been praised for their resilience, but their lack of firepower in attack has been a recurring issue. Players like Samu Omorodion have shown flashes of promise, yet the team’s overall consistency remains questionable. Facing Barcelona away from home is always a daunting task, and Alaves will need to summon every ounce of discipline to keep the contest competitive.

Ath Bilbao
Levante enter this clash against Athletic Bilbao with a heavy burden of recent defeats weighing on their shoulders. In the past two months, their form has been troubling, highlighted by a narrow 1-0 loss to Valencia on November 21, where Hugo Duro’s spectacular strike sealed the derby at Mestalla. Before that, Levante fell 3-1 to Atlético Madrid and 2-1 at home against Celta Vigo, leaving them stuck near the bottom of the LaLiga table. News around the club has focused on their struggles to convert possession into goals, with Carlos Álvarez and Oriol Rey picking up cautions in tense matches that underscored their lack of composure. The team’s inability to secure clean sheets has become a recurring theme, and their supporters are growing restless as survival in Spain’s top flight looks increasingly precarious.
Athletic Bilbao, meanwhile, arrive with mixed fortunes. Their most recent outing was a bruising 4-0 defeat to Barcelona at the newly reopened Camp Nou on November 22, a match that saw Oihan Sancet sent off in frustration as the Catalans dominated. Just weeks earlier, Bilbao had managed a narrow 1-0 win over Real Oviedo at San Mamés, showing their capacity to grind out results against lower-ranked sides. However, their Champions League campaign has been equally disappointing, with a 2-0 loss to Newcastle at St. James’ Park on November 5 leaving them struggling in the group stage. Ernesto Valverde’s men have been criticized for inconsistency, alternating between disciplined defensive displays and lapses that allow opponents to punish them heavily. The club’s official communications have emphasized the need to regroup quickly, especially with fixtures piling up in both domestic and European competitions.

Osasuna
Mallorca enter this clash with Osasuna in LaLiga looking to build on a period of mixed form that has kept them hovering around mid-table. In recent weeks, Javier Aguirre’s side has been praised for its defensive resilience, particularly after holding Barcelona to a 1-1 draw in late September and securing a narrow 1-0 win over Girona in October. The team has also faced challenges, such as a tough 2-0 defeat against Atlético Madrid, but their ability to frustrate stronger opponents has been a recurring theme. News from the past two months has highlighted the return of key midfielder Dani Rodríguez from injury, which has given Mallorca more stability in possession. The islanders have also been working on improving their attacking transitions, with striker Vedat Muriqi continuing to be their focal point in the final third.
Osasuna, meanwhile, arrive in Mallorca with ambitions of climbing higher in the table after a series of fluctuating results. Jagoba Arrasate’s men recently earned a gritty 2-1 victory over Alavés, showing their ability to grind out points, but they also suffered setbacks such as a 4-2 loss to Real Madrid and a narrow 1-0 defeat against Real Sociedad. Over the past two months, Osasuna’s news has been dominated by the fitness of Chimy Ávila, who has been battling minor knocks but remains an important attacking option. The team has leaned heavily on Ante Budimir, whose aerial presence and finishing have been crucial in tight games. Their defensive organization has been questioned at times, yet they remain a side capable of troubling opponents with direct play and set-piece strength.

Dep. La Coruna
Albacete arrive at this clash with Deportivo La Coruña after a mixed run of results in LaLiga2 over the past two months. Their most recent outing was a narrow 2-1 defeat away to Las Palmas on November 21, where Manu Fuster’s early strike was not enough to secure points. Prior to that, they managed a 1-0 home victory against Andorra on November 15, showing resilience at the Carlos Belmonte. Earlier in November, they fell 3-2 to Eibar in a spirited contest, but bounced back with a 2-1 win over Huesca at home on November 1. October had been inconsistent, with a 3-1 loss to Córdoba but also a valuable 1-0 away win at Castellón. These results underline Albacete’s fluctuating form, yet they remain competitive and capable of troubling stronger sides when their attack clicks.
Deportivo La Coruña, on the other hand, have been one of the standout performers in LaLiga2 this season, stringing together impressive results in recent weeks. On November 23, they secured a 2-1 home win against Ceuta, with goals from Yeremay Hernández and Stoichkov. Just a week earlier, they dismantled Córdoba 3-1 away, and before that, they claimed a 3-0 victory at Riazor against Cultural Leonesa. Their consistency has been remarkable, as they also defeated Real Zaragoza 2-0 away on November 2, following a 1-1 draw against Valladolid in late October. Even their lone setback in recent weeks, a 2-1 loss at Racing Santander on October 19, was quickly corrected by a string of victories. Deportivo’s attacking depth and defensive organization have made them a formidable force, pushing them toward the top of the table.
