Go Ahead Eagles snatched an injury time equaliser to draw their opening league game of the season 2-2 away at Sittard last Friday. Ajax beat Telstar 2-0 at home last Sunday. Ajax won 2-0 at home when they last played Go Ahead Eagles in the Eredivisie in February.

Go Ahead Eagles have played 2 competitive games this season. They lost their first game 2-1 against PSV in the Johan Cruyff Shield two weeks ago, before drawing their first league game of the season 2-2 away at Sittard last Friday. Ajax won their first league game of the season 2-0 at home to Telstar last Sunday.

Vasteras SK FK
100 WIN
@1.53
Win
53
Third-placed Vasteras SK FK are currently just 3 points behind the top two teams in the Superettan. They have the best current form in the division. Vasteras have won their last 4 league games and are unbeaten in 5 (D1). Orebro SK are bottom of the league with 7 points from 17 games. They have drawn their last 4 but have now gone 21 competitive games without a win (D8 L13).
00:00 Juventude v Corinthians
Corinthians
100 WIN
@2.05
Lose
-100
I would recommend adding Corinthians or the Draw as a Double Chance bet to an accumulator, as I'm not 100% confident that there will be a winner here. However, if pushed to pick a winner, I would back Corinthians. Juventude are currently second bottom of the league, and on a 4 game losing streak. Corinthians are unbeaten in their last 5 games across all competitions.

20:45 FC Porto v Guimaraes
FC Porto
FC Porto were disappointing in the FIFA Club World Cup this summer, failing to win a single game and finishing 3rd in their group with only 2 points from 3 games. However, they did finish 3rd in the league last season. Guimaraes finished 7th, 17 points behind Porto. Porto finished last season strongly with 12 points from their last 5 league games, while Guimaraes only picked up 6 points from their last 5.
19:30 Trabzonspor v Kocaelispor
Trabzonspor
Trabzonspor completed the league double over Kocaelispor when these two sides last met in the 2008/09 season. Kocaelispor are newly promoted after winning the 1. Lig last season. Trabzonspor finished 7th in the Super Lig, with the 4th best home record in the league, so I'm backing Trabzonspor to kick off their season with 3 points tonight.
18:00 Elfsborg v IFK Varnamo
Elfsborg
IFK Värnamo are currently 7 points adrift at the bottom of Sweden's Allsvenskan (with a game in hand over second bottom Degerfors) with just 8 points from 18 league games. They have taken just 1 point from their 8 away league games this season. Elfsborg have won 3 of their last 4 league games.
11:00 Cerezo Osaka v Albirex Niigata
Cerezo Osaka
Albirex Niigata are currently second bottom of the Japanese J1 League, tied on 19 points and -17 goal difference with bottom of the league Yokohama FC, only above them due to goals scored (24). Niigata have lost their last 5 league games and are on a run of 6 consecutive defeats across all competitions. Cerezo Osaka's recent form has been inconsistent, with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 defeats from their last 5 games across all competitions. However, they have won 4 of their last 5 home league games (L1) and 7 of their last 8 home games across all competitions.

Newly promoted Tondela face one of the toughest challenges that they possibly could have on their return to the Portuguese top tier as they face a trip away to one of the country's top teams. Braga finished 4th last season and are currently unbeaten after 3 competitive games this season. Braga have also beaten Tondela in all of their last 4 league meetings.

17:00 Galway United v Shamrock Rovers
Shamrock Rovers
100 WIN
@1.85
Lose
-100
Galway United have taken just 1 point from their last 6 league games. Shamrock Rovers have won their last 4 competitive away games at Galway United. Rovers may be distracted by the Conference League Qualifier Second Leg game that they have on Thursday, where they need to overturn a 1-0 First Leg defeat as they host FC Ballkani of Kosovo. So it may be best to back the draw or Shamrock Rovers win in a double chance bet on an accumulator bet, but I am still tempted to back a Rovers win.

15:00 Anderlecht v Zulte Waregem
Anderlecht
Anderlecht have won both of their opening 2 league games this season, scoring 7 goals and conceding 2. Zulte Waregem have 1 point after 2 league games. Anderlecht should manage to make it 3 out of 3, especially considering that they have some breathing room for their midweek European game after winning the first leg of the Conference League Qualifier 3-0 at home against Sheriff Tiraspol on Thursday.

15:00 Crystal Palace v Liverpool
Liverpool
Premier League champions Liverpool will be expected to beat FA Cup winners Crystal Palace here, but I predict it won't be as easy as many will expect. Palace were the underdogs when they pulled off a shock 1-0 win against Manchester City in the FA Cup Final. Liverpool have also found Palace difficult to beat over the last few years, winning just 2 of their last 6 meetings (D3 L1). However, I am predicting a narrow Liverpool win.

@1.17

Last season's Eredivisie runner-up Ajax will be expected to walk this. Telstar finished 7th in the Eerste Divisie last season, and were promoted through the play-offs. Ajax and Telstar have met just 3 times previously, including a friendly in 2022, with Ajax winning on all 3 occasions.
Over 2.50
Total Goals
5 of Ajax's last 7 league games last season had 3 or more total goals scored, and 6 of their 7 pre-season friendly games also saw 3 or more total goals scored, including all of the last 5. Telstar earned promotion to the top flight through the play-offs last season. In the final round they beat Willem II 5-3 on aggregate after a 2-2 home draw and a 3-1 away win.
12:30 Aberdeen v Celtic
Celtic
Celtic have beaten Aberdeen in all of their last 3 Scottish Premiership head-to-head meetings, including winning 5-1 at home and away in their last 2. Aberdeen lost 2-0 away at Hearts in their opening league game of this season last weekend, meaning that they come into this weekend bottom of the league. Celtic won 1-0 at home to St Mirren.

PSV won their first competitive game of the season 2-1 against G.A. Eagles in the Johan Cruyff Shield last weekend. All 8 of their last 8 competitive fixtures have had at least 3 total goals scored. 3 of their 4 pre-season friendlies also had 3 or more total goals scored.

Bulgarian champions Ludogorets Razgrad are currently unbeaten in 8 games across all competitions so far this season. That unbeaten run extends to 11 games including last season, with just 1 defeat in 21 competitive games. Slavia Sofia have lost their last 2 games, and have just 1 point after 3 league games this season.
17:45 Feyenoord v NAC
Feyenoord
100 WIN

NAC Breda finished 4th bottom last season after failing to win any of their last 15 league games. So, I expect them to struggle against clear favourites Feyenoord here. Feyenoord beat Fenerbahce 2-1 at home in the Champions League qualification phase during the week.

3 of the last 4 head-to-head Irish Premier League meetings between Shelbourne and Bohemians Dublin have seen both teams score. Both teams have scored in 3 of Shelbourne's last 4 home league games.
15:30 Almere City v Vitesse
Almere City
Almere City were relegated from the top tier last season after finishing bottom with 22 points. Vitesse finished bottom of the Eerste Divisie with just 5 points from 38 league games. So, Almere City are my bet here.

Qingdao Hainiu have lost 4 of their last 5 league games (W1). Yunnan Yukun drew their last game 4-4 at home against league leaders Shanghai Shenhua, and have 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 defeats from their last 5 league games. Yukun are on a run of 3 games unbeaten across all competitions.

@1.80

Both teams have scored in the last six head-to-head meetings between Coventry and Hull. Coventry won their home fixture 2-1 against Hull last season, before the return fixture at Hull ended in a 1-1 draw. Given this recent trend, I am willing to take a gamble on both teams to score today.
12:30 Southampton v Wrexham
Southampton
Southampton have a point to prove after finishing rock bottom of the Premier League and being relegated with just 12 points and a -60 goal difference. Today's game is an ideal opportunity for them to start their Championship campaign with a win as they have home advantage and host newly promoted Wrexham.
12:00 Shandong Taishan v Changchun Yatai
Shandong Taishan
Changchun Yatai are currently bottom of the Chinese Super League, with just 9 points from 19 games, and have taken just 4 points from 9 away league games. Changchun have not beaten Shandong Taishan since 2014. In the 18 head-to-head league meetings since, Shandong Taishan have won 14 and drawn 4.

Yokohama FC are currently on a run of 6 consecutive league defeats, which began on the 1st of June when they were beaten 2-1 away at today's opponents, Urawa Red Diamonds. Urawa's recent form has been inconsistent. They have won 2, drawn 2, and lost 2 of their last 6 league games, but their performance over the course of this season is superior to Yokohama. After 24 league games, Urawa have double the points total (38) of Yokohama (19).

20:00 Larne v Santa Clara
Santa Clara
After drawing 1-1 on aggregate, Larne beat Prishtina 5-4 on penalties to make it through the last round of Conference League qualifiers. However, they face a far tougher test in this round as they face Santa Clara. Santa Clara beat Varazdin 3-2 on aggregate in the previous round.
20:00 Rapid Vienna v Dundee Utd

Rapid Vienna have won their last 5 competitive games. They beat Decic 6-2 on aggregate in the previous round of Conference League qualifiers, and they won their opening league game of the season 1-0 at home to BW Linz at the weekend. Dundee United drew 2-2 away at Falkirk in their opening league game of the season at the weekend, after progressing to this stage of the Conference League qualifiers with a 2-0 aggregate win over UNA Strassen.
19:45 St Patricks Athletic v Besiktas
Besiktas
The Turkish Super Lig is a far stronger league than the Irish Premier League, in my opinion. So I expect Besiktas, who finished 4th last season, to make light work of St Patricks Athletic, who finished 6th last season.
19:30 FCSB v KF Drita
FCSB
FCSB have won the Romanian Superliga the past 2 seasons. They were knocked out of the Champions League Qualifiers in the previous round, but should find more fortune in this competition. Here they face Kosovan champions Drita at home in the first leg, a side that the bookies expect them to beat, given FCSB are clear favourites.

AZ Alkmaar are clear favourites to win this first leg at home against FC Vaduz of Liechtenstein. AZ finished 5th in the Dutch Eredivisie and beat Heerenveen and Twente to qualify for the Conference League. They progressed through the previous round after beating Ilves of Finland 8-4 on aggregate. Vaduz play in the Swiss Challenge League and finished 6th last season.

Dutch side AZ Alkmaar beat Ilves of Finland 8-4 on aggregate in the previous round of the Conference League qualification phase. They lost the first leg 4-3 away at Ilves, before winning 5-0 at home in the second leg. AZ clearly have goals in them, and I expect them to batter FC Vaduz, a side perceived to be far weaker than their hosts.
AZ - AZ
Half Time / Full Time
AZ Alkmaar won 5-0 at home in their last competitive game, against Ilves of Finland in the second leg of the previous round of this competition. The Dutch side led 4-0 at half time. They are clear favourites to win here, so the 'Half Time/Full Time' bet seems like a good bet.

Dynamo Kyiv
Ukrainian champions Dynamo Kyiv beat Hamrun Spartans of Malta 6-0 on aggregate in the last round, winning both legs 3-0. Meanwhile, Pafos FC were fortunate to progress.

It's difficult to look past FK Qarabag for the win in this game. They are strong defensively, having kept clean sheets in 6 of the last seven competitive games, including keeping clean sheets against Irish side Shelbourne in both legs of the previous Champions League qualification phase.

FK Qarabag are solid at the back. The champions of Azerbaijan conceded just 19 goals in their 36 league games last season and have kept 6 clean sheets in their last 7 competitive games.
18:00 Hamrun Spartans v Maccabi Tel Aviv
Maccabi Tel Aviv
Ukranian side Dynamo Kyiv made light work of knocking Malta's Hamrun Spartans out of the Champions League qualification phase, winning both legs 3-0 (6-0 agg). Israeli champions Maccabi Tel Aviv were eliminated from the Champions League by Paphos of Cyprus at the same stage. Tel Aviv drew the first leg 1-1 away at Paphos. They were unlucky in the second the leg. Their new goalkeeper Yoav Gerafi was forced off with injury in the 13th minute, Dor Peretz then had his 17th minute goal disallowed for offside, before substitute goalkeeper Ofek Melika was sent off in the 30th minute. Paphos scored the only goal of the game against 10-man Tel Aviv in the 40th minute, and Tel Aviv were eliminated after losing 2-1 on aggregate. I'm backing Maccabi Tel Aviv for the win here.

Brondby last played Viborg in February and won that fixture 4-1 at home. They have won 3 of their 4 competitive games so far this season, and have taken 4 points from their opening 2 league games. Viborg have lost both of their league games so far this season.
16:30 Celtic v St Mirren

Scottish champions Celtic have not lost to St Mirren since 2022. Since then, Celtic have played 13 games against St Mirren, winning 11 and drawing 2. I expect Celtic to win this opening league game of the season.

Stromsgodset
This is a game between second bottom, Stromgodset, and bottom of the league, Haugesund. These two teams have collected just 8 points between them after playing 16 league games each. I am backing Stromgodset for the win. They have home advantage, and have also scored almost 4 times as many league goals (19) as Haugesund (5), as well as conceding 37 goals in comparison to the 42 conceded by Haugesund.
