Football tips for 13 Apr 2026: analysis of 2 promising matches, Manchester United preview, today's football schedule;
On 13 April 2026, football tips highlight the Monday night fixture to follow, especially for Manchester United, the popular Premier League team. Below is the match analysis and commentary on two key games:
- English Premier League / Kick-off at 02:00 GMT+7
"The Red Devils" return to play after 24 days since their last league match, a 2-2 draw against Bournemouth. They remain confident in securing a UCL spot, as Chelsea lost 0-3 to Manchester City and still sit 6th, 7 points behind. Michael Carrick is hopeful for a permanent manager contract after leading the team to 7 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in 10 games. United have remained unbeaten in their last 18 home league matches against "The Whites." Despite missing Harry Maguire due to suspension, Lisandro Martinez may recover in time from injury.
Leeds are unbeaten in their last 4 games across all competitions, recently winning on penalties against West Ham to reach the FA Cup semi-finals against Chelsea. However, they have not won in the Premier League since 6 February (a 3-1 win over Forest), with 4 draws and 2 losses in 6 matches since. Against Manchester United in their last 3 encounters, Leeds drew twice and lost once. This season, away league form shows only 1 win and 7 losses in 15 matches. With six injured players, including key playmaker Anton Stach, Leeds appear unlikely to hold off Manchester United.
Prediction Manchester United to win comfortably.
- Italian Serie A / Kick-off at 01:45 GMT+7
"The Purple Giants" saw their 6-match unbeaten streak in all competitions (4 wins, 2 draws) end with a 3-0 home defeat to Crystal Palace in the UEFA Conference League quarterfinal first leg. However, their league form has improved with 4 wins, 3 draws, and just 1 loss in the last 8 games, including 3 clean sheets. They will miss Albert Gudmundsson and Nicolo Fagioli due to suspension, but key forwards Fabiano Parisi and Moise Kean are expected to be fit to play.
"The Sky Blues" have also performed well recently, unbeaten in their last 5 games (3 wins, 2 draws). They aim for a second consecutive away win for the first time since May last year. However, Lazio have struggled against Fiorentina lately, losing 3 of their last 4 meetings and drawing once earlier this season. Star striker Daniel Maldini faces a hamstring injury with uncertain fitness, captain Mattia Zaccagni remains sidelined, and the squad has eight players out injured. A draw seems likely.
Prediction Fiorentina to share points with Lazio.
