English Premier League
- Brighton vs Liverpool (Kickoff at 19:30)

English Premier League
Everton vs Chelsea (Kickoff at 00:30)
Another interesting Premier League match is Everton, ranked 8th, hosting Chelsea, ranked 6th. Everton's last five matches show two wins and three losses across all competitions, while Chelsea has only one win in their last five matches.
This game is expected to be close, but looking at the recent head-to-head record, Chelsea has the edge—winning three, drawing one, and losing one in their last five meetings against Everton.
Chelsea recently exited the UEFA Champions League round of 16 heavily defeated by PSG and are keen to return to winning ways here. Their squad boasts stronger players such as Cole Palmer, Enzo Fernandez, and João Pedro, while Everton's standout is only Iliman Ndiaye.
Prediction: Chelsea to win 2-0
German Bundesliga
Bayern Munich vs Union Berlin (Kickoff at 21:30)
Switching to Germany's Bundesliga, Bayern Munich will host Union Berlin. Bayern's recent form is excellent with four wins and one draw in their last five matches, while Union Berlin has two wins and three losses.
In their last five encounters, Bayern has the advantage with three wins and one draw. Currently confident after thrashing Atalanta to reach the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals, Bayern, led by Harry Kane in form, is expected to overpower the visitors.
Prediction: Bayern Munich to win 3-0
Italian Serie A
AC Milan vs Torino (Kickoff at 00:00)
This match is quite balanced; in their last five meetings, AC Milan and Torino each won twice and drew once. However, their current league positions differ greatly: AC Milan is 3rd, while Torino is 14th. It is believed AC Milan will narrowly win.
