Friday, Jan. 5 predictions: there’s the Serie A advance, three FA Cup matches, two Portuguese Primeira Liga and the French Cup.
The final day of the Serie A first leg kicks off with the advance between Bologna and Genoa. The Thiago Motta-coached team collapsed in the last round against Udinese but remains in the middle of the Champions League zone and is ready to get back up against an opponent that on the road has never been able to repeat the performances it offered at Marassi, where it has a good performance and where it was able to overwhelm Roma and block Napoli, Juventus and Inter.
In the Portuguese Primeira Liga previews expected victories for Sporting CP and Porto against Estoril and Boavista.
Predictions for other matches
This weekend the Premier League will give way to the FA Cup, on the field as early as tonight. Tottenham mothballed by absences will not have to underestimate Burnley in a game to score goals, goals that should also come on time in the challenge between two Premier League teams-Brentford and Wolverhampton.
Fulham after beating Arsenal in the last round of the Premier can grant an encore with modest Rotherham.
