class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The 13-time European champions have lacked a cutting edge in their last couple of matches yet they should be able to overcome Los Pericos on Sunday

Real Madrid travel to Barcelona on Sunday to face Espanyol in La Liga with Carlo Ancelotti’s men aiming to bounce back from their midweek Champions League embarrassment.

Los Blancos were beaten 2-1 at home by Moldovan side Sheriff Tiraspol in one of the biggest upsets in the competition’s history, a result which has stalled the positive momentum Madrid had built up at the start of the season.

Espanyol vs Real Madrid latest odds

Espanyol come into the game having won just one of their seven matches so far this season and bet365 offer the hosts at 4/1 (5.00) to record an upset this weekend.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, are offered at 4/6 (1.65) with the draw available at 3/1 (4.00).

Espanyol vs Real Madrid team news

The visitors are still without injured full-backs Dani Carvajal, Marcelo and Ferland Mendy while in attack Gareth Bale remains a long-term absentee.

The hosts are also without some important players as defender Fernando Calero is missing, along with midfielder Yangel Herrera and winger Javi Puado. 

Espanyol vs Real Madrid preview

Los Blancos are the top scoring side in La Liga with 21 goals in seven matches yet their last two competitive fixtures have seen them lack a clinical edge.

The defeat to Sheriff saw them create plenty of chances which they failed to take, and was preceded by a 0-0 draw at home to Villarreal, another game which saw Madrid fail to capitalise on their opportunities.

Espanyol for their part have scored just four times this term, only two sides have netted fewer, and the Catalans have also been guilty of spurning promising openings.

Ancelotti’s men have claimed wins in their last three away matches in all competitions but have not overly convinced, needing extremely late goals to win at Valencia and Inter, while claiming a hard-fought 1-0 win at Real Betis.

Sunday’s game should be another tight encounter and opposing a high-scoring clash should appeal. 

Espanyol vs Real Madrid tips & predictions

Real Madrid to win and under 3.5 goals in the game is priced at 8/5 (2.60), while Real Madrid to win to nil is priced at 2/1 (3.00). 

You can watch La Liga live on the go with your iPhone, iPad or Android device through your bet365 account. All you need is a funded account or to have placed a bet in the last 24 hours to qualify.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With both teams in strong form at the back, Al Hain-Cole expects a tense and tight encounter between the Reds and Guardiola's men at Anfield

A heavyweight Premier League clash will take place at Anfield on Sunday, when Liverpool play host to Manchester City.

Having surrendered their title to this opposition last season, Jurgen Klopp’s men look determined to recapture their crown as they sit top of the table after six games.

Liverpool vs Manchester City latest odds

However, with just one point to their name from the last three meetings between the sides, Liverpool are 19/10 (2.90) outsiders with bet365 to make a strong statement in the title race by coming out on top against the champions.

Man City recorded an impressive 1-0 win away to Chelsea last weekend and are available at 11/8 (2.38) to underline their quality with another victory over fellow title challengers.

Just one of the last five league encounters between this pair has resulted in a draw, but there are odds of 5/2 (3.50) available on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Liverpool vs Manchester City team news

Trent Alexander-Arnold has been ruled out due to a groin injury, joining Thiago Alcantara and Harvey Elliott in the treatment room.

Ilkay Gundogan remains unavailable with the thigh injury he sustained against Southampton, while Oleksandr Zinchenko is a doubt.

Liverpool vs Manchester City preview

Having suffered a 4-1 thrashing here last season in a match that saw Jordan Henderson and Fabinho line up in the centre of defence due to injuries, the Reds will be determined to demonstrate their true quality this time out.

They will certainly expect more resilience in defence with Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip and Joe Gomez all available once again and new signing Ibrahima Konate adding extra depth.

Indeed, they have let in just seven goals in nine matches so far this campaign and conceded only once in their last five league fixtures in their own backyard.

Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola’s team have kept five consecutive clean sheets in the league, albeit scoring only twice themselves in their three most recent Premier League outings.

Liverpool vs Manchester City tips & predictions

With a much tighter encounter therefore looking likely, odds of 11/10 (2.10) look like solid value on under 2.5 goals being scored for Livepool’s 13th league home game in 16, as well as a fourth league game in a row for City.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Luis Enrique's men are missing some key players and are likely to struggle once again when they face the winners of Euro 2020 at San Siro

European champions Italy welcome Spain to Milan on Wednesday evening in the semi-final of the UEFA Nations League.

Roberto Mancini’s side are on a historic 38-match unbeaten run and are clear favourites to triumph against a La Roja team beset by injuries.

Luis Enrique’s men, however, will be out for revenge having been denied a place in the final of Euro 2020 on penalties at the hands of the Italians this summer. 

Italy vs Spain latest 0dds

The Azzurri’s last defeat came on September 10, 2018 when the side went down 1-0 to Portugal.

Since then they have recorded 28 wins and 10 draws (in 90 minutes) and bet365 offer Italy at 6/5 (2.20) to rack up another win without extra-time, while they can be backed at 4/6 (1.65) to qualify.

Spain, meanwhile, can be backed at 29/20 (2.45) to make it through to the final of the competition and are 11/4 (3.75) to win.

The draw is on offer at 21/10 (3.10).

Italy vs Spain team news

The hosts are without first-choice striker Ciro Immobile who has withdrawn from the squad due to injury.

The visitors, meanwhile, also have a number of high-profile absentees with strikers Alvaro Morata and Gerard Moreno both missing, while midfielder Pedri, who started every game at Euro 2020, is also out.

The man who was called up to replace Pedri, Celta Vigo’s Brais Mendez also had to withdraw through injury, meaning a call-up for Barcelona’s out-of-favour utility man Sergi Roberto.

Marcos Llorente and Dani Olmo are also missing through injury. 

Italy vs Spain preview

Matches between these two rivals tend to be close affairs and Italy’s semi-final triumph in July was no different.

Another similar encounter looks likely on Wednesday night although the hosts are rightly fancied to progress.

Immobile may be a key man out for Italy yet the rest of the side is pretty settled, in stark contrast to the Spain team which is constantly being chopped and changed by Luis Enrique.

Morata, Moreno, Llorente, Pedri and Olmo were all key members of the Euro 2020 squad with the latter two starting the semi-final against Italy, and Morata coming off the bench to score the side’s only goal. 

With La Roja unable to call upon the services of some of their most important players, and with the Azzurri remaining an extremely solid unit, backing Mancini’s men to record another win makes sense.

Italy vs Spain tips & predictions

The price of 6/5 (2.20) for an Italy win should appeal while under 2.5 goals in the match is offered at 8/13 (1.61) and has paid out in 11 of the last 14 meetings.

Belgium vs France: Predictions, odds & betting tips

December 30, 2021 | News | No Comments

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With both teams looking fragile in defence, Al Hain-Cole expects goals at both ends when Les Diables Rouges take on Deschamps' men in Turin

Belgium and France will go head-to-head for a place in the Nations League final when they meet in Turin on Thursday.

Roberto Martinez’s side have won all three of their World Cup qualifiers since getting knocked out of the Euro 2020 quarter-finals by eventual champions Italy, scoring nine goals and conceding three.

Belgium vs France latest odds

However, Belgium are slight 19/10 (2.90) outsiders with bet365 to make it four wins in a row by coming out on top over their neighbours.

In contrast, Didier Deschamps’ France have only won one of their last six fixtures in all competitions but are 6/4 (2.50) favourites to secure a big win at the Allianz Stadium.

Five of those last six matches have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 11/5 (3.20) on them taking this one into extra-time after yet another stalemate.

Belgium vs France team news

Thomas Vermaelen, Never Chadli, Jeremy Doku and Dries Mertens have all dropped out of the squad since Euro 2020.

N’Golo Kante is unavailable after testing positive for Covid-19, with Matteo Guendouzi in contention to make his senior debut in midfield after receiving his first call-up in two years.

Belgium vs France preview

Having thrown away a 3-1 lead to crash out of Euro 2020 at the last-16 stage against Switzerland, Les Bleus’ defence has become a real cause for concern.

Indeed, the world champions conceded six goals in their last three games at the Euros and have now kept just one clean sheet in six matches coming into this fixture.

That fragile backline is sure to be tested by Roberto Martinez’s side, which has not failed to score in their last 38 games in all competitions – averaging almost three goals per match over that period.

Nevertheless, the Belgians have their own question marks over a backline led by the 34-year-old Jan Vertonghen and a 32-year-old Toby Alderweireld who plays his club football in Qatar.

Belgium vs France tips & predictions

With Kylian Mbappe, Karim Benzema and Antoine Griezmann likely to form an irresistible French forward line, odds of 5/6 (1.83) seem generous on both defences struggling in a match that features goals at both ends.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The last few meetings between these South American neighbours have been low-scoring affairs and that run should continue when they meet this week

Copa America champions Argentina face Paraguay as the Albiceleste look to continue their strong run of form in CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying.

Lionel Scaloni’s men sit second in the table, unbeaten in their last 12 qualifiers, and take on a Paraguay side who remain in the hunt for a spot at the World Cup despite recording just two wins from nine games in the current qualifying tournament. 

Paraguay vs Argentina latest odds

The most recent meeting between the sides came in June at the Copa America with Argentina triumphing by a 1-0 scoreline.

Another win for the two-time world champions can be backed at 4/7 (1.57) with bet365.

The last time the teams met on Paraguayan soil the game ended in a goalless draw in 2015 and another stalemate is on offer at 11/4 (3.75) with Paraguay clear outsiders at 5/1 (6.00). 

Paraguay vs Argentina team news

The hosts are without River Plate defender David Martinez and Brondby full-back Blas Riveros who have both pulled out of the squad.

The visitors for their part are missing Juventus forward Paulo Dybala who picked up a thigh injury in his side’s win over Sampdoria in Serie A.

Lionel Messi is included in the squad and expected to play a prominent part having started every match in the qualifying tournament so far. 

Paraguay vs Argentina preview

Last month saw Argentina claim convincing wins over Venezuela and Bolivia, the two bottom sides in the competition, although Paraguay should provide sterner opposition.

Eduardo Berizzo’s team have only lost at home to Brazil in the tournament and will be highly motivated against their more illustrious southern neighbours.

Paraguay have shown in recent years they are more than capable of frustrating Argentina and the record in this fixture over the last five meetings is extremely even: one win apiece and three draws.

While the visitors have more quality in their squad, they are likely to find it difficult to break down an organised side and backing another tight game looks appealing. 

Paraguay vs Argentina tips & predictions

Under 2.5 goals has paid out the last five times these nations have faced each other and is offered again at 4/6 (1.65).

Combining this selection with both teams to score ‘no’ sees the odds rise to an appealing evens (2.00).

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>A one-sided affair is in prospect in Caracas where Brazil will be confident of extending their 100 per cent record in World Cup qualifying

Runaway leaders Brazil visit bottom team Venezuela for what is expected to be a one-sided contest in CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying.

Tite’s men have a perfect record in the tournament, winning all eight of their matches, in stark contrast to the north-west neighbours who sit bottom of the table with four points from a possible 27. 

Venezuela vs Brazil latest odds

The most recent meeting between the sides came at the Copa America where the five-time world champions ran out 3-0 winners.

Click Here: manly sea eagles rugby store

Another Brazil victory is priced at 3/10 (1.30)  with bet 365 while the draw is available at 17/4 (5.25) . Venezuela have never beaten Brazil in an official match with their only success coming in a 2008 friendly.

It would be a major shock if La Vinotinto could pull off a win, with a home triumph offered at 8/1 (9.00) .

Venezuela vs Brazil team news

The hosts are without some of their most important attacking players, with forwards Salomon Rondon and Josezf Martinez both missing from the squad, along with midfielder Yangel Herrera.

Brazil are without Neymar for this game through suspension, while Roberto Firmino and Richarlison are out injured.

Last month Brazil were without nine Premier League players because of travel restrictions but players based in England have now been allowed to travel. 

Venezuela vs Brazil preview

Brazil have been in stunning defensive form during this qualifying campaign, having conceded just twice in eight games and that superb record is likely to continue.

Indeed those two goals came in the same game during a 4-2 win in Peru, meaning La Canarinha have kept seven clean sheets in eight matches, recording shut-outs in each of their last six World Cup qualifiers.

Against the weakest side in the tournament, who are missing some of their most dangerous attacking players, there should be plenty of interest in backing Brazil to claim another clean sheet in Caracas.

Venezuela vs Brazil tips & predictions

The visitors are offered at 4/5 (1.80) to keep a clean sheet and if we combine this selection with an away win the odds rise to a healthy looking evens (2.00) .

Des chercheurs égyptiens sont parvenus à découvrir les secrets d’une momie royale encore dans ses bandelettes grâce à l’imagerie médicale. Celle-ci a révélé de nouvelles techniques d’embaumement lancées avec Amenhotep Ier plus de 1.500 ans avant J.C..

Ce pharaon fils d’Ahmès-Néfertari et d’Ahmosis Ier, fondateur de la XVIIIe dynastie (-1550 à -1292), est ainsi le premier à être momifié les bras en croix mais aussi le dernier dont le cerveau n’a pas été retiré du crâne au moment de sa momification, a expliqué ce mardi un communiqué du ministère égyptien du Tourisme et des Antiquités.

Analyse par tomodensitométrie

Cette momie, découverte à Louxor en 1881, est la seule dont les bandelettes enroulant étroitement le corps n’ont jamais été déroulées par des archéologues, pour préserver son masque funéraire ainsi que les guirlandes de fleurs qui l’entourent telle une chevelure. L’analyse par tomodensitométrie, le scanner des médecins radiologues, révèle en outre que ce pharaon, qui a mené plusieurs campagnes militaires au cours de ses 21 années de règne, est mort à 35 ans, apparemment pas de blessure ou de maladie.

Ces recherches ont été menées par Sahar Saleem, professeure de radiologie à l’Université du Caire, et Zahi Hawass, figure incontournable mais parfois controversée de l’égyptologie. Ensemble, ils ont soumis la momie à une technique d’imagerie médicale en 3D très poussée, la tomographie assistée par ordinateur.

Grâce à cette même technique, Zahi Hawass et le spécialiste des momies, l’Allemand Albert Zink, avait résolu en 2012 un crime vieux de 3.000 ans en découvrant la vérité sur la « conspiration du harem ». A grand renfort de rayons X et d’analyses ADN, ils avaient prouvé que Ramsès III avait eu la gorge tranchée au cours de cette conspiration ourdie par une coépouse voulant installer son fils sur le trône en lieu et place du premier-né d’une de ses rivales.

La croissance impressionnante du groupe suédois Embracer se poursuit. Après avoir récemment ajouté à son équipe de nombreux studios et entreprises liés au monde du jeu vidéo et du divertissement, Embracer Group a annoncé l’acquisition de la maison d’édition Dark Horse Media pour un montant inconnu. Elle rejoindra la société en tant que 10e groupe opérationnel, derrière Asmodee qui avait été acquis le 17 décembre dernier.

Le communiqué explique que l’acquisition de Dark Horse renforcera les capacités transmédias de la société en ajoutant une expertise dans le développement de contenu, la publication de bandes dessinées et la production cinématographique et télévisuelle.

Pour rappel, Dark Horse a été fondé en 1986 et est actuellement le troisième plus grand éditeur de bandes dessinées au monde, après Marvel et DC Comics. Au fil des ans, l’entreprise s’est diversifiée en éditant également des films et des séries télévisées. Dark Horse dispose actuellement de plus de 300 propriétés intellectuelles. Parmi celles-ci, on trouve notamment Hellboy, Sin City ou encore Umbrella Academy. Selon le communiqué, certaines de ces propriétés intellectuelles pourraient donner lieu à la création de nouveaux jeux vidéo.

Une course à l’armement

En parallèle de ce rachat, la filiale d’Embracer « Saber Interactive » a également acquis la totalité des actions de Shiver Entertainment, un studio de développement basé en Floride dirigé par les vétérans de l’industrie. Enfin, Embracer a également signé un accord pour acquérir l’entièreté des actions de la chaîne allemande de vidéo à la demande Spotfilm Networx via sa filiale Koch Media.

Si elle constitue un événement majeur, l’acquisition de Dark Horse n’est que la dernière d’une longue série d’acquisitions du groupe Embracer qui a montré ces derniers temps une volonté de se développer et de devenir une véritable référence sur le marché du jeu vidéo et du divertissement. Ces nombreuses acquisitions devraient se transformer dans les prochaines années en productions vidéoludiques et cinématographiques. Dans un récent rapport financier, le PDG de la société a déclaré que 25 jeux triple A devraient être lancés au cours des cinq prochaines années.

Plus de la moitié des concessionnaires (60 %) envisagent « des réductions d’emplois à partir du premier trimestre », en raison des problèmes d’approvisionnement qui paralysent le secteur automobile, a annoncé ce mardi le président du Conseil national des professions de l’automobile (CNPA).

L’estimation résulte de « tests qu’on vient de faire auprès des entreprises », a précisé sur BFM Business Francis Bartholomé, à la tête de l’organisme qui regroupe les concessionnaires, loueurs et garagistes. Pour éviter ces réductions d’emplois, le CNPA demande au gouvernement d’améliorer sa prise en charge du chômage partiel.

Deux années galères

Après une année 2020 plombée par la pandémie de Covid-19, le marché de l’automobile a dû faire face en 2021 à une pénurie de puces électroniques. En raison de l’explosion des délais de livraison, les ventes de voitures neuves ont chuté et s’annoncent inférieures à celles enregistrées en 2020.

Ce phénomène se répercute en bout de chaîne sur une filière qui emploie 500.000 personnes, a alerté Francis Bartholomé. Dans les concessions, des vendeurs sont déjà pénalisés par ces difficultés, leurs primes de ventes n’étant attribuées dans certains cas qu’à la livraison des véhicules. « Beaucoup de concessionnaires ont fait ce qu’il fallait pour que les collaborateurs ne soient pas trop pénalisés », a assuré Francis Bartholomé, qui évoque des compensations.
