RSC Anderlecht W vs Waregem W – 1

Anderlecht Women enter this home fixture in blistering form, having secured 12 points from their last five outings. They have been nearly unstoppable at home, scoring in every single match at their home ground this season. Their offensive numbers are elite, averaging 2.4 goals per game, with much of the damage coming in the second half of matches.

Waregem, on the other hand, shouldn’t be overlooked. They are currently on a four-game unbeaten run on the road and have shown a much-improved defensive resilience, keeping three clean sheets in their last five games. However, Anderlecht’s historical dominance in this fixture—including a 3-0 win last March—makes them the heavy favorites. Waregem will need to survive an early onslaught if they hope to steal a point.


Tampines Rovers vs Cong An Ha Noi – 2

This AFC Champions League Two fixture has been clouded by off-field drama. Cong An Ha Noi originally secured a 4-0 win in the first leg, but the AFC recently ruled that they fielded ineligible players. As a result, Tampines Rovers were awarded a 3-0 forfeit victory.

Tactically, Tampines has been strong at the Jalan Besar Stadium, averaging two goals per match this season. Despite the administrative win, the Stags will want to prove they can compete on the pitch. Cong An Ha Noi remains a dangerous side offensively, averaging 1.86 goals per game, but they now face a massive uphill battle to overturn the forfeited deficit. Expect a tense match as the Vietnamese side tries to chase the game from the opening whistle.


Ipswich Town W vs Charlton Athletic W – 2

This is a true “David vs. Goliath” encounter in the WSL 2. Charlton Athletic sits comfortably at the top of the table, remaining unbeaten after 15 league games. They are coming off a high-scoring 4-2 win against Durham and look every bit like a team destined for promotion.

Ipswich Town, currently fighting near the bottom of the table, has found some grit recently. They are three games unbeaten, including a vital 2-1 win over Portsmouth. Interestingly, Ipswich was the first team to take points off Charlton this season in a 0-0 draw back in September. While Charlton’s quality is undeniable, Ipswich has shown they can set up a low block that frustrates the league leaders.


Zakho SC vs Sitra Club – 1

In the Gulf Club Champions League, Zakho SC hosts Sitra in a decisive Round 6 return match. The first leg ended in a cagey 0-0 draw, leaving everything to play for in Iraq. Zakho currently tops Group A and remains the heavy favorite at home, where they are notoriously difficult to break down.

Sitra has struggled for consistency, sitting at the bottom of the group. They haven’t found much joy in front of goal lately, which is a concern against a Zakho side that prioritizes defensive structure. Expect a low-scoring affair where a single goal likely decides who advances.


Wolves vs Arsenal – 2

It is top vs. bottom at Molineux as Arsenal looks to extend their lead at the summit of the Premier League. The Gunners have been slightly shaky on the road lately, drawing their last two away games, but they face a Wolves side that has won just once in 26 league matches this season.

Wolves have shown a bit of defensive backbone recently, keeping clean sheets in their last two games, but their lack of firepower (scoring only 0.85 goals per home game) is their Achilles’ heel. With Arsenal’s title race entering a critical phase, Mikel Arteta will expect a professional performance. Arsenal has won the last nine meetings between these two, and the form guide suggests that streak is unlikely to end tonight.


Catania vs Trapani – 1

This Sicilian derby in Serie C Group C carries significant weight. Catania is currently 2nd in the table and boasts the best defensive record in the league with 17 clean sheets. They are incredibly tough to beat at home, and their recent 2-0 win over Cosenza highlighted their efficiency.

Trapani has had a rollercoaster season, highlighted by a crushing 5-0 loss to Benevento recently. While they won this fixture 4-0 earlier in the campaign, their current form is a shadow of that performance. Catania’s discipline and home advantage make them the side with all the momentum heading into this clash.


Nordsjaelland W vs Eintracht Frankfurt W

Eintracht Frankfurt travels to Denmark with one foot already in the UEFA Women’s Europa Cup semi-finals. They dismantled Nordsjaelland 4-0 in the first leg, with Rebecka Blomqvist and Nicole Anyomi putting on a masterclass. Frankfurt has won every single match in this competition so far and enters this game on a six-match unbeaten streak across all competitions.

Nordsjaelland is in their domestic off-season, which clearly showed in the first leg’s fitness levels. While they have a history of second-leg comebacks in earlier rounds, overcoming a four-goal deficit against a German powerhouse like Frankfurt is a massive mountain to climb.
