Today's football tips for 11 Feb 2026 feature analysis of four promising matches, unveiling the day's fixtures with a focus on Liverpool.
On 11 February 2026, today's football tips highlight major midweek European matches to follow. We provide analysis and expert opinions on four key games from the English Premier League, the DFB-Pokal, and the Copa del Rey as follows.
- English Premier League / Kickoff at 03:15 GMT+7
The "Reds" lost 1-2 at home to Manchester City, marking just one win, four draws, and two losses in their last seven league games. Notably, they've conceded winning goals after the 90th minute four times this season. Although visits to "The Black Cats" have been somewhat reassuring, with five unbeaten matches (three wins, two draws), the right-back position is problematic as Jeremy Frimpong and Conor Bradley are both injured, plus Dominic Szoboszlai is suspended. Curtis Jones or Wataru Endo may fill in.
However, Sunderland has struggled against Liverpool, failing to win in 14 years over the last 11 meetings (6 losses, 5 draws). Their recent form is inconsistent, with three wins, four draws, and three losses in ten games. They remain unbeaten at home this season (7 wins, 5 draws), the only team to do so in the league, but four players are injured, including key midfielder Granit Xhaka. They may manage only to maintain their home unbeaten record.
Expert opinion : Black Cats share points with the Reds
- English Premier League / Kickoff at 02:30 GMT+7
The "Sky Blues" gained full confidence after a 2-1 away win against Liverpool at Anfield and have a chance to reduce the gap to three points if they win this game and Arsenal lose to Brentford on Thursday. Their last five matches are unbeaten (four wins, one draw). John Stones returns from injury, and the attack remains strong with Erling Haaland, Rayan Cherki, Antoine Semenyo, and Phil Foden.
The "Cottagers" have faltered recently, losing three of their last four league games (one win). Their away record this season is poor: 12 matches with three wins and seven losses. They have lost all ten recent meetings with Manchester City. Despite only two injured players, Sasha Lukic and Tom Cairney, they are unlikely to escape defeat again against the "Sky Blues."
Expert opinion : Manchester City continues to dominate Fulham
- DFB-Pokal Quarterfinals / Kickoff at 02:45 GMT+7
Although the "Bavarians" have won the Bundesliga title 12 of the last 13 seasons, the cup has eluded them for six years. Their recent form includes two wins and one draw after a shock 1-2 home loss to Augsburg. In the last six games against Leipzig, Bayern is unbeaten (four wins, two draws), scoring five or more goals in three of the last four matches.
Leipzig aims to reach the semifinals for the sixth time in eight years and win their third cup in five years. Their recent form is inconsistent: five wins, four losses, and one draw in ten matches. Their league away record this season is decent with five wins, three draws, and three losses, including a 0-6 loss to Bayern. With four injured players, it seems tough to resist Harry Kane, Luis Díaz, and Michael Olise.
Expert opinion : The Bavarians advance to the next round
- Copa del Rey Semifinals First Leg / Kickoff at 03:00 GMT+7
This Basque derby comes at a good time. Bilbao has won two straight matches after three without a win (two losses, one draw), but they have conceded in 11 consecutive games. They also have nine players unavailable due to injury or suspension, relying on brothers Iñaki Williams and Nico Williams for impact.
Real Sociedad is in hot form, unbeaten in 10 consecutive games across all competitions with six wins and four draws, winning four of their last five. Their only recent draw was against Bilbao in La Liga. Their last eight meetings have been close, with three wins each and two draws. With key forwards Mikel Oyarzabal (9 goals) and Gonçalo Guedes (6 goals), they could be decisive.
Expert opinion : Sociedad aims to win away at Bilbao
