SOCCER PICKS FOR APRIL 16, 2015

The second force UEFA Europa League enters today in quarterfinal stage. This is where the ambitious East defies the dominant continent of football West. Failing teams from the former Soviet expanse to compete with the Old Firm in the Champions League, they throw everything that is in the Europa League against the second wave Westerners.
Three teams from the East reached here to argue with five teams from the West to the trophy. All first quarterfinal matches are tonight at 22:05 pm.

Sevilla - Zenit
This is a clash between the current and three-time overall winner of the trophy Seville and a former winner of the competition - Zenith. The rivalry between the Spaniards and Russians is the first of three between representatives of the two parts of the continent in the quarterfinals. The group of Sevillians will be absent only injured goalkeeper Beto, but the youngster Sergio Rico not inferior qualities. In Zenith four goals are punished for the first match. Absence of Smolnikov, Krishito Dani and Hulk will be less serious for the leader in Russia. With a hand injury is Fayzulin.

Bruges - Dnipro
Belgians were the only team in the quarterfinals, reached this level without loss - 11 wins and 3 draws. Israeli Lior Rafaelova with 6 goals its turn is one of the leading marksmen in the tournament. Engels, Meunier, Duarte and Gedos with injuries in the team of Bruges. When the Ukrainians will be absent for this reason two - fuel oil and Zuzulya and Matthaus is questionable.

Dynamo Kiev - Fiorentina
This is the third duel East - West in the quarterfinals. Dynamo has achieved five home wins in the tournament has a margin of at least two goals. Kievchani are the team with the most goals made - 22, quarter-by. Of their composition will be absent injured Makarenko and Velozo is questionable. While Fiorentina never lost in the 8 meetings with Ukrainians. "Viola" is also in a series of 11 games unbeaten away from home in Europe - 8 wins and 3 draws. Rossi and Babakar miss the match because of injuries and Bazanta for punishment.

Wolfsburg - Napoli
Of all the quarter-Wolfsburg is the smallest European experience, having your account 60 games. So does the team is in good shape, as you can not rely solely on the injured junta. Napoli has no health problems and seek to please his mentor Rafa Benitez on the day of his 55th birthday. Neapolitans are the third team from quarter-to win this tournament, albeit under the name UEFA Cup - in 1989.



Wolfsburg - Napoli
04/16/2015 22:05
Forecast: over 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.65

In the first match of the quarterfinals of the Europa League today against each other on the green carpet face teams Wolfsburg hosts and their guests in the face of the team of Napoli. These two opponents are second and fourth in the table with the rankings of their countries today and both clubs will rely on the best of which have to gain victory. Therefore, given their attacking style of play and desire to win, my forecast is over 2.5 goals in the match.

FC Copenhagen - Esbjerg
04/16/2015 19:15
Forecast: over 2.5 goals
Odds: 2.10

On Thursday from 19:15 CET will play the match between the teams of FC Copenhagen and their guests in the face of the team of Esbjerg. The table ranking Superleague Denmark these two teams occupy respectively the tenth and second with assets of under 27 and won 46 of them at this stage of the race points. Today, however, they face each other in a match of the Cup of the football here and the ranking is not crucial, but more important motivation and selflessness on the field. Given the desire of the two teams to continue their participation and win the game, my forecast is over 2.5 goals in it.

Kashiwa Reysol - Kashima Antlers
04/16/2015 13:00
Forecast: over 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.85

In another match of the sixth round of the competition in the J. League Division 1 Japan against each other on the field will face the host team of Kashiwa Reysol and their guests in the face of the team of Kashima Antlers. These two opponents are in eighth and 12 - th place in the table ranking this level of football in the country have in their assets won at this early stage of the beginning of the tournament in 7 and 5 points. Today certainly both clubs will look to win and will put in 100% to achieve it. So my forecast for the match is over 2.5 goals in it.

Club Brugge - Dnipro
Forecast: 1
Odds: 2.00
Security: 4/10
Start time: 22:05

In the first quarter-final match of the Europa League tonight, Club Brugge take the composition of the Ukrainian Dnipro. The hosts won the regular season in Belgium, conceding only three losses in 30 games, started off as the group title with 2-1 at home over Standard Liege, but the weekend fell 0-2 in their visit to Kortrijk and advance their top in the ranking is only 2 points ahead of their pursuers Gent and Anderlecht. In the regular season Bruges not let defeat at home in the league - 10 wins and 5 draws and is still unbeaten at home this season in all competitions - 19 wins and 7 draws, including five wins and only one draw in their previous six households Europa League, eliminating the phase of direct elimination so far consistently Danish Aalborg and Turkish Besiktas after a total of 4 wins with a total score of 11-3. Guests are third now in Ukrainian Championships with 41 points (12-5-2), 8 less than the driver Dynamo Kiev, after the winter break in early March this year recorded four wins and a draw zero household weekend with Metalist Kharkiv. Dnieper is quite hesitant in an away game in Europe at the beginning of the season out of the Champions League after losing 0-2 to FC Copenhagen in Denmark, and in the next 6 away games in the Europa League managed to win only Karabakh Agdam 2-1 in the group, a tie with Hajduk Split, St Etienne, Inter Milan and Olympiakos and lost 0-1 to Ajax in Holland eighth-finals, but went ahead thanks to goals on away goals in stoppage During this match. Therefore my expectations tonight Club Brugge managed to get the victory and to go to Ukraine for the second leg with a goal at least advance.
This couple can not say that Bruges is much stronger than the Ukrainian representative, but their beautiful form leads us to the thought that they will win at least their home match. The Belgian team has 8 wins in their last 9 games. Dnipro team is also in good shape, but it is important to report the home court advantage in this clash equivalent.
Bruges is probably the best host in Europe this year, recorded only beat your account. Dnipro are a convenient opponent for Belgians to qualify for the semifinals in the Europa League. Championship of Ukraine can not yet be carried out in normal conditions and certainly guests are not sufficiently prepared for the meeting, and the hosts are in a great mood, once in the previous round turned Besiktas as a guest, to be able to qualify.

Sevilla - Zenit
FORECAST: 1
RATE: 1.80
Date: 04.16.2015 (Thursday), 22:05

Sevilla are unbeaten at home this season, while Zenit will be without five of their main players.
Defending champion Sevilla in the Europa League is one of the few teams in Europe who are still unbeaten at home in this campaign of domestic and European stage. Unai Emery boys forged an impressive turnaround for the 2: 2 against Barcelona at the weekend meeting in La Liga, before which were in great series of seven consecutive wins in all competitions. Members of Seville no key players absent, as the only experienced guard Beto is in doubt due to strain. To top attack coach Emery will choose between the leading scorer Carlos Bacca and Kévin Gameiro, who made a strong engagement against Barca, realizing one of the hits.
Here and the form and class are on the side of Seville. The hosts presented perfectly and have 7 wins and 1 draw in their last 8 matches. Equality is the last round in the Spanish Cup against Barcelona, ​​but against such a rival and the draw was a great success.
Zenit no little cause for optimism, judging by statistics. The team will not win over Spanish rival for 7 consecutive games and in their last six visits to Spain recorded 6 unanswered damage. Russians also lost 3 of their last 4 away games in Europe. Senior coach Andre Villas-Boas will Viyash must piecing composition without five of their main players. Hulk, Danny, Domenico Kriskito and Igor Smolnikov are punished, and Viktor Fayzulin is injured.
Seville, with Wolfsburg are the teams in the best shape of those who stayed in the Europa League and completely naturally are considered favorites to win the race. Domestic form of Seville is unique, as they are not lost a home game in all competitions last season. Year now their loyal fans have not seen their team lost in the final result. Zenit are also in good shape, but as guests experience some difficulty and not very convincing.
It will be a real test not only for the players of "Zenith", but for the entire guide and coach. Four leading player - Hulk, Danny, Criscito and Smolnikov not play today, and here we will see if there is enough depth in Petrograd composition or structure and change it to no one. I understand that the Hulk is difficult to replace in principle (though Dunga does not think so), but the rest is quite possible, if the same guys sitting in reserve. And the "Zenith" left sitting Kerzhakov and Arshavin. Incidentally, they flew in the "Seville" with the team. For Kerzhakova this match will be special. He still played for the "Seville" albeit briefly. Unai Emery, leading the "Spartacus" lost to a team from the banks of the Neva with indecent score 0: 5. I think today he will try to take revenge, and perhaps he will succeed. "Sevilla" is now in a big way.
Zenit often met with Sevilla in the second-largest tournament in Europe and the only time they got completely beat the Spanish club. At this point, Zenith - the leader of the championship of Russia, and it is unlikely someone will be able to move the "blue-white-blue" with their first line.
After the departure of the Champions League, many called for the team to compete for the trophy. Actually, for the first meeting each output, except that the Russian team needs this title and did not arise. On all aspects was replayed Dutch PSV, who five minutes to champion his championship. But in the confrontation with Torino Petrograders though passed on, but the second leg showed a huge problem wards Andre Villas-Boas. Perhaps this was due to the fact that the Portuguese mentor chose defensive tactics on the second leg, but toothless and unprincipled to play against a team that Zenit head and did not give raise to the home meeting - the solution is quite strange. The result of the confrontation though and had a positive outcome for the Russian club, but its effects directly impact on the team's prospects in the quarterfinals.
In the upcoming meeting of the coaching staff, "blue-white-blue" will not be able to count on the Hulk, Danny, Smolnikova and Criscito. They all received unwanted yellow cards and missed the meeting due to disqualification. Plus, can not play the injured Victor Fayzulin, which is sure to come in handy in this game. These losses are given a great chance to prove himself on the bench bored Russian players. First of all, we are talking about Ryazantseva, Kerzhakov, Arshavin and Anyukova. Therefore, it is very interesting that all the same decide André Villas-Boas. Given that the Portuguese expert very little confidence that Kerzhakov, Arshavin, he probably just try to create a powerful fist midfielders in the middle of the field, in the face of Witzel, Garcia, Tymoshchuk, Shatova and Ryazantseva, and send a powerful attack and able to cling to the balls Rondon.
Estimated compositions
Seville: Rico - Tremulinas, Carrico, Pareja, Figueiras e Covas - Iborra, Mbia - Reyes, Banega, Vidal - Gameiro
Zenith: Lodygin - Anyukov, Garay, Lombaerts, nope - Tymoshchuk - Shatov, Witzel, Garcia, Ryazantsev - Rondon
Offside
Seville: Beta
Zenith: Smolnikov, Hulk, Danny, Criscito, Fayzulin
Andalusiytsy struggling to win a place under the sun ligochempionskoy. On the eve of the "red-white" had a heroic match against Barcelona, ​​being able to recoup with 0: 2. Remembering how to begin this meeting for the Trust Unaya Emery, the result can be called and did fantastic. The result of the match with the "blue garnet" only emphasizes the strength of the Spanish team that last season just won the Europa League.
Sevilla - Zenit: the forecast readers
    Sevilla (-1) - 1.90
    Zenit (1) - 1.90
View Results
Of the injured in Seville only one goalkeeper Beto, but his good substitute for a young and promising Rico. Emery always has a place rotation, allowing each player to prove himself. Key changes must occur in the attacking line instead Vitolo should appear Reyes, and instead of Carlos Bacca - Kevin Gameiro. Reyes and Gameiro became those players who organized the second goal against Barca. Jose Antonio clocked players in midfield and put on Vidal and Gameiro has closed his cross, scoring his sixth goal after the replacement, becoming the best on this indicator among the top 5 European championships. In the core zone should appear Stephane Mbia, who missed a couple of weeks due to injury. Cameroonian likely to vary Kryhovyaka whose services are very useful in the coming round.
Zenith main chance - this underestimation by the Spanish club. Andalusiytsy now more focused on the fight for a place in the Champions League, so the match in the championship for them is no less important than the game quarterfinals. Petrograd, in turn, need to play at a high commitment and try to compensate for this lack of four players at once the basics. Given the above, for the Russian team will be a good result even minimal damage, and if you manage to catch the draw, and it does it will be possible to equate to a huge success.
Forecast the match.
PROPOSALS higher odds: Sevilla beat & Under 2.5 goals @ 3.75 2-0 correct score @ 7.00

DYNAMO KIEV - Fiorentina
forecast: 1
Odds: 2.37

Dynamo Kiev English side Everton in the last stage and only one defeat in its previous 11 games in all competitions. The players of Serhiy Rebrov are sinless home in this campaign. They won all their five households in Europe and do not know already lost 22 games before his audience. Fiorentina secure participation in the quarter-finals after "whacking" over their opponents in "Calcio" Roma. "Violet" not lost any of their last 11 visits to the continent, arriving in Ukraine in a minor mood after two defeats with 0: 3 respectively from Juventus for the Italian Cup and Napoli for the championship.
A very interesting game. Kiyani so easy away with "Everton", which would be a shame not to stop them next opponent. Of course, "violet" stronger "butterscotch" will be, but the last of their results in Serie "A" even a little confused mentor people of Kiev Sergei Rebrov. I do not think Montella told specifically to play the latest games in the championship, knowing that for the track team Kiev scouts. "Fiorentina" still refers to Dynamo as a second-class team and no match for yourself. However, we know that this is not the case. In Rebrov full understanding with the players and the fans loved his former player as a coach rather quickly. Even the great Blokhin this was not achieved. I think the game will be exciting, but the hosts do not get involved in important special attacks, not to miss, and then in Florence will br difficult.

Wolfsburg - Napoli
Europa League
Time - 22:05
Forecast - 1
Coefficient - 1.80
Security - 8/10

Flying recently Wolfsburg team tasked to deal to deal with in crisis Napoli. The hosts play great football this season and deservedly occupy second place in the ranking of Germany. They have 6 wins and 1 draw in their last 7 games. In the last round eliminated without problems another Italian team - Inter therefore klaefitsenta e 1,75 but not higher.
Napoli did have 2 wins in their last 10 games. The team is in crisis and it is serious. Wolfsburg is now much stronger team.
Wolfsburg reached the quarter-finals of the Europa League after Inter sweep with a total score 5: 2. "Wolves" do not know defeat in their last seven games in all competitions, scoring six victories in this period. Napoli ranked among the final eight of the tournament, after eliminating Dinamo Moscow 3: 1. "Albiceleste" are unbeaten in their last 7 games in the Europa League, which recorded six clean sheets. The team from Naples goes to Germany with increased confidence after success with 3: 0 victory over Fiorentina in the "calcio", which put an end to unpleasant series of five games without a win.

Dynamo Kiev - Fiorentina
Europa League
Time - 22:05
Forecast - 2
Coefficient - 3.40
Security - 5/10

You will look for success for the Italian team in this good value. Fiorentina last weekend erred favorite novels and now would be a sin not to deal with Dynamo Kiev. The level of Ukrainian football is quite far from the Italian. Fiorentina have more quality players and this is sufficient reason to believe that bet in this ratio for the visitors worthwhile.

Dynamo Kiev - Fiorentina
Europa League - 22:05
Forecast - Under 2.5 Goals
coefficient 1.65

Fenerbahce - Mersin
forecast: 1
Odds: 1.40

River Plate - San Jose

Wolfsburg - Napoli
forecast for 04/16/2015
forecast: Both teams to score
Odds: 1.75

In a meeting of the central game of the day "wolves" should try to tear "donkeys", but is simply "donkeys" to give up easily in this food chain? Napoli failed in March, up to a limit complicating their position in the fight for a place in the Champions League. Neapolitans behind Lazio and AS Roma at 8 and 7 points respectively, and play this handicap would be virtually impossible.
This, to put it mildly, not the best results gave rise to a wave of criticism of Rafael Benitez, and if in the middle of the season it could be attributed to the rumors, but now, it's most likely sentence for the Spanish coach. In particular, the press actively sends a native of the Iberian Peninsula back to Albion to a season to lead Manchester City and heat coaching position for Josep Guardiola.
Gradually emptying infirmary "donkeys" was supposed to breathe new life into the team, but the reality is a little different. Especially here it is worth paying attention to the choice of the starting lineup; Benitez's decision not only surprising, sometimes they cause some jitters. For example, in a recent crucial match with Roma remained on the bench Hamšík, Coulibaly, Strinić. Very good for Napoli that starting to get more recently injured Lorenzo Insigne. In the hospital is only Michu, who has not played ten matches in the new club and Gargano, confidence fell from the Spanish coach.
Estimated compositions
Wolfsburg: Benaglio - Rodriguez, Knochen, Naldo, Vierinya - Gilavogi, Gustavo - Perisic, De Bruyne, Kalidzhuri - Dost
Napoli: Andujar - Maggio, Albiol, Coulibaly, Strinić - Jorginho, Lopez - Callejon, Hamšík, Mertens - Higuain
Offside
Wolfsburg: Hunt
Napoli: Michu, Gargano
Against the background of the Italian club Wolfsburg looks blissful place. Dieter Hecking team plays for pleasure: to win the championship will not work exactly the same way as to fall below the second place, but the two compete for the Cup - a top priority for the young German team.
In the last round of "wolves" have not provided any chance of fighting for the survival of the "dinosaurs", confidently beating Hamburg 0: 2. A few days earlier was produced to the semifinals of the German Cup, where a difficult match was defeated another underdog championship Freiburg 1: 0.
Wolfsburg - Napoli: the forecast readers
    Wolfsburg win - 1.8
    Napoli will not lose - 2.05
View Results
1/16 LE Germans easily defeated Sporting and 1/8 broke Inter Milan, so it is quite obvious that the "wolves" - the main favorite of the Europa League. But it was Napoli, in my opinion, do follow a team Dieter Hecking. It is not necessary to remind that Rafael Benitez - one of the best-known experts in the cup battles. Valencia, Liverpool, Chelsea and now he heads Napoli, at the time won national or international cups.
One of the main weaknesses and at the same time the main force of Wolfsburg is their risky football. Of course, they may close and brilliant play on the counter, as it was in a duel with Bayern, but Napoli - Bayern is not. And besides, the Germans are unlikely to want to give the initiative in the home match, especially when at every corner talking about the power of the wards Dieter Hecking. This fact is clearly at hand Italian club, who, having in his cage very fast Kalehona, Insine or Mertens, a couple of seconds can deploy deadly counterattack. In addition, guest match for Napoli involves goal scored if he Benitez and many players who can leave Naples at the end of the season, do not want to spoil his reputation.
Forecast for the match:
Both score - 1.75.

TODAY WE HAVE 7 OUT OF 12 PICKS PREDICTED CORRECTLY.  WE HAVE -$80 PROFIT WITH $1200 WAGERED AND $1120 TAKEN.
TOTAL SO FAR WE HAVE CORRECTLY PREDICTED 944 OUT OF 1687 GAMES (55.96%). IF YOU HAVE BET $100 ON EACH YOU WOULD HAVE $163745-165600 = -$1855 PROFIT. THAT IS -1.12% PROFIT(ROI).
