Date: 25 Jan 2026 GMT+7 Today's football tips This weekend offers many exciting football matches across multiple leagues, especially from Europe's top five leagues: the English Premier League, Spain's La Liga, Germany's Bundesliga, Italy's Serie A, and France's Ligue 1, among others. Here we focus on 4 intriguing matches with expert commentary as follows.
Crystal Palace vs Chelsea
The home team, the "Eagles" Crystal Palace, recently lost a key player, Marc Guehi, to Manchester City, despite ongoing rumors linking him to Liverpool. Their last 5 matches across all competitions have been unimpressive, with no wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses.
The visitors, "The Blues" Chelsea, currently sit 6th with 34 points from 22 matches. Their last 5 matches show a decent form with 3 wins and 2 losses. While not flawless, Chelsea's quality suggests they can comfortably win away at Crystal Palace.
Analysis: Chelsea looks confident.
Arsenal vs Manchester United
"The Gunners" Arsenal under Mikel Arteta lead the table with 50 points from 22 games, having won 3 and drawn 2 in their last 5 matches without a loss. Meanwhile, "The Red Devils" Manchester United, led by interim English coach Michael Carrick, are 5th with 35 points from 22 games, recording 1 win, 3 draws, and 1 loss in their last 5.
The home team holds a strong record against the visitors at home: out of 33 meetings, Arsenal has won 16, drawn 9, and United has only won 8. The last United away win against Arsenal was on 2 December 2017, a 3-1 victory. In the subsequent 7 matches, United managed only 1 draw and suffered 6 losses.
Analysis: Manchester United will have a tough match.
Barcelona vs Real Oviedo
"Blaugrana" Barcelona top the table with 49 points from 20 matches, while Real Oviedo sit bottom with 13 points from the same number of games. The gap of 18 places and recent form — Barcelona winning 12 of their last 13 matches, while Oviedo have failed to win in their last 13 meetings — suggest little chance for an upset or even a point for Oviedo.
Analysis: Barcelona looks dominant.
Juventus vs Napoli
Home team "The Old Lady" Juventus is 5th with 39 points from 21 matches. Visitors Napoli are 3rd with 43 points from 21 games. Juventus have been excellent in their last 9 matches with 7 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. Napoli remain unbeaten in their last 9, with 5 wins and 4 draws. The last meeting saw Napoli win 2-1 at home. This match could go either way.
Analysis: Napoli unlikely to lose.
