VfB Stuttgart VS Union Berlin The fundamentals are easy for everyone to learn. Stuttgart has been in excellent form recently, defeating two strong teams, Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt. They are only behind RB Leipzig in the Champions League zone due to goal difference. Just as I predicted last night, Bayern Munich never shows mercy against its competitors. They thrashed Leipzig, allowing me to gain points successfully. Nevertheless, Leipzig still maintains a two - goal advantage in the Champions League spots. Union Berlin has also been performing well. As we all know, they are very resilient. Now, let's analyze whether Stuttgart can get all three points today. From a data perspective, both European and Asian odds are reasonable. Berlin Union has an impression of being tenacious among fans and is in good recent form, so it's unrealistic to expect Stuttgart to offer more demanding odds. From the initial odds till now, Asian odds have consistently kept Stuttgart at low odds, an

Aston Villa VS Everton Aston Villa's recent form has been on the decline. In their last three league games, they only had one victory. In the previous FA Cup match, they finally defeated Tottenham Hotspur and advanced. The last two games have brought two new injury concerns for Unai Emery: Boubacar Kamara suffered a knee injury in the game against Tottenham and will miss this match. Meanwhile, Martinez got a calf injury at Crystal Palace and is also likely to be absent today. On Everton's side, former Aston Villa star Jack Grealish was sent off against Wolves and was suspended for one game. However, since FA Cup matches are also counted, he is available again today. But Michael Keane's club's appeal failed, and he is still serving a two - game suspension. Even though Villa dropped points in two of the previous games, they have always maintained their dominance. Everton, on the other hand, have been in a slump recently and failed to beat Wolverhampton. It seems like an easy win for Vill

Real Sociedad VS FC Barcelona Real Sociedad has shown significant improvement since the change of coach. They held Atlético Madrid to a draw, won away against Getafe, and then, after trailing by two goals in the Copa del Rey, they equalized and eliminated Osasuna in a penalty shoot - out, which has boosted their morale. There are no new injuries, and they still have a relatively full squad. Barcelona is on an 11 - game winning streak. Goalkeeper Joan García has been amazing. In the last game, he successfully defused a two - man one - on - one situation in the dying moments, preventing the team from going into extra time. Araújo played for one minute in the national derby, and his return may strengthen the defense. However, Raphinha will miss the game due to a thigh injury. In Barcelona's recent victories, the previous game against SD Santander and the one before against Espanyol both relied on the outstanding performance of their goalkeeper. In the game against Villarreal, it was th
