As we said befre, Dynamo Kiev is not entitled to make any mistakes in this match and hardly will let Maccabi to stop them in their most important game.
Our football prediction is 1.

The team performs poorly away from home and in 14 games has recorded only one win, four draws and nine losses. There are dozens of injured and suspended players for the upcoming match.

Juventus takes out 15 million pounds for Edin Dzeko

The Management of Juventus is ready to take out 15 million pounds to secure the services of Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko, says "Mirror". The 29 years old Bosnian recently signed a new four-year contract with the "citizens", but still can`t fight for a starting place in the team of Manuel Pellegrini. For precisely this reason the "bianconeries" hope to be able to steal him from "Etihad" in the summer.

It appears that in the composition of the City will be quite serious changes after the end of the season. Stevan Jovetic will almost certainly be sold after being left out of the squad for the Champions League. It will not be a surprise, if the same thing will happened with Jacko, who was only third choice a striker after Sergio Aguero and Wilfried Bony. The "Citizens" however like to get a higher price for the Bosnian and this may be the main problem in his passage to Juventus.

At the same time it is hard talking, that Manchester City will try to bring in their composition the young defender of PSV Eindhoven - Jetro Willems. The Dutchman falls also within the sight of Real Madrid and both clubs mentioned by soccer stats will have to bid for his signature.

Manchester United is interested in a defender of Lazio

Manchester United is greatly interested in the defender of Lazio Stefan De Vrij. The Dutch is tipped for a transfer of "Old Trafford" in the summer, as the "reds" are ready to remove 24 million euros for his rights.

The 23 years old footballer is well known for the manager of "reds" Louis van Gaal. Namely he had in the national team of the Netherlands while he was head of the "tulip". Expected as early as last summer it take to United with Van Gaal, but surprisingly the defender chose the proposal of Lazio.
De Vrij however, continued to impress in his first season with the team of the "eagles". He has played 25 matches so far and left a great impression with his performances and it doesn`t remain, as van Gaal again renewed his interest in him.

The scout of the "reds" Jim Lawler traveled to Rome to watch the performances of the Dutch in the match with Verona and was satisfied with what he saw. In this game Lazio won with 2: 0 recording a "dry" net and reached the sixth consecutive victory, as firmly holds the 3rd place in the standings and even has a chance to attack the 2nd position.

Atletico Madrid vs Bayer Leverkusen

Atletico Madrid hosts Bayer Leverkusen at 'Vicente Calderon` Stadium in a rematch of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League.

Take your time and be prepared to enjoy that match to the maximum thanks to our soccer tips.
Atletico Madrid had a goalless draw with the visit of Espanyol in the Primera Division and stayed nine points away from the leader in the standings, Barcelona. So Atletico can fully concentrate on the rematch with Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League since the tournament remains the last chance for a trophy this season.
For the duel with Germans, Diego Simeone will not be able to count on the players Diego Godin and Thiago. Instead, the match will start with Raul Jimenez and Mario Suarez. Saul Nguez has an injury as he is also going to miss the game against the Germans. The young left defender Guilherme Siqueira also has a trauma, but the medical staff will lift it up for the match and he will be among the starting eleven of Diego Simeone. In attack the Argentine expert will release Mario Mandzukic and Antoine Grizman, while Fernando Torres will stay on the bench.
Bayer Leverkusen has had a 4:0 victory over VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga, which will give the team an extra self esteem before the important visit in Madrid. The team will defend a lead of 1 goal, as it will probably choose a defensive tactic to stop its hosts.
The coach Roger Schmidt won`t be able to count for the match with Atletico Madrid on the injured Robbie Kruse and Tin Jedvaj and Lars Bender is in question because of the same injury. After a penalty Omer Toprak is going back to the team of Bayer Leverkusen. He has missed the first leg in Germany, but now will start in the center of the defense of his team.
The guests from Leverkusen will opt for a more defensive tactics that will likely make it difficult to Atletico Madrid, who by tradition also love to defend. In view of this, our football forecast predicted by soccer stats is for a few goals scored on Tuesday night (actually, we think that they will be fewer than 2.5).

Although that Hull are in good shape, the players of Mark Hughes made typical strongly at home and even more, they have to make it up to their fans after they were humiliated in their last household from the visiting team of Manchester City. The team is far enough from the danger zone and far from ranking in the Top 6.

After a long drought, the team managed to win against one of their direct rivals for survival in the elite of England and before that recorded an impressive draw with Manchester City.
