Betis – Leganes

SPAIN: LaLiga – Round 5, September 13, 2024 Betis – Statistical Overview: Offensive Efficiency: Real Betis’ offensive efficiency has not been at its best this season.

St. Etienne – Lille

FRANCE: Ligue 1 – Round 4, September 13, 2024 Overview and Statistics: Saint-Étienne has had a particularly weak start to the 2024-2025 Ligue 1 season, having started with three defeats.

CRB – Sport Recife

BRAZIL: Campeonato Brasileiro B – Round 7, September 12, 2024 Team Form and Motivation CRB is in a tough spot, as they have gone winless in their last nine matches and currently sit in 17th place, right on the edge of the relegation zone.

Ireland – Greece

EUROPE: UEFA Nations League – League B – Round 2, September 10, 2024 Ireland’s Form and Statistics: Ireland has shown weak form recently, with three defeats in their last six matches, including a 2-0 loss against England in their most recent encounter.

France – Belgium

Nations League, September 09, 2024 France team statistical analysis: France’s first match in the Nations League ended in failure, losing 1-3 to Italy. Although Bradley Barcola’s early goal gave them the lead, their defense crumbled, especially in the second half. The most concerning statistic is their defensive weakness: France conceded 3 goals and only managed to stop 3 of Italy’s 6 shots on target. Mike Maignan’s performance was mediocre, saving only 50% of the shots, which is insufficient for a match of this caliber. France’s attackers, such as Kylian Mbappé and Antoine Griezmann, struggled to create effective chances. Mbappé took […]
