205 published previews across every competition we cover.
Every preview we publish lands here, with the scoreline we committed to and, once the match has been played, whether that call came in.
Predictions are written by the editorial team rather than generated from a feed, and each one carries the byline of the writer who made the call and the date it was published.
The tip sits separately from the scoreline, with the market named and the price recorded as it stood at the time of writing.
The world's oldest professional football club meet the Class of 92's great project at Wembley on Bank Holiday Monday. One will reach League One, the other stays put.
Getafe host Osasuna in a final-day La Liga fixture with European football still on the line for the home side. José Bordalás needs a win, and a favour from Seville.
Arsenal host already-relegated Burnley in their final Premier League home game of the season, knowing a win keeps them two points clear of Manchester City with one round to play. Full preview, predicted lineups and betting tips.
Roma need a win to consolidate fifth and keep Europa League football alive. Lazio arrive battered by a Coppa Italia final defeat, with Sarri raging at the scheduling and his own future unresolved. Giallorossi to edge a tense derby.
Chelsea need a miracle at Wembley. Manchester City arrive as clear favourites, chasing a domestic cup double against an injury-hit Blues side that have not beaten them in 13 attempts. Our full preview, predicted lineups and final score prediction.
Bayern München lift the Bundesliga trophy at the Allianz Arena on Saturday, but there is still a record to set. We preview the season finale against 1. FC Köln, with predicted lineups, team news and a prediction.
Notts County host Chesterfield at Meadow Lane on Friday night holding a 1-0 advantage from the first leg, with a place at Wembley on 25 May the prize. Jayden Luker's strike put the Magpies in control, but Paul Cook's Spireites won at this ground in each of the last two League Two seasons.
Both sides go into Friday's showdown locked on 59 points. Win and you're in the Champions League. Lose and the final day suddenly gets very uncomfortable.
Saint Etienne host Rodez at a sold-out Geoffroy-Guichard on Friday night with Ligue 1 football at stake. Philippe Montanier's side must win to stay alive.
Salford City take a 2-1 first-leg lead into Friday's decider at the Peninsula Stadium. Karl Robinson's side need only a draw to reach Wembley, but Grimsby arrive fuelled by controversy and a burning belief they can turn this tie around.
The scoreline is the writer's view of the most likely result, and it is printed in bold at the foot of the preview so there is no ambiguity about what we actually think.
The reasoning above it is the part worth reading, because a scoreline on its own tells you what someone concluded without telling you why, and the why is what lets you disagree with it intelligently.
Where the data and the eye test point in opposite directions, the piece says so rather than quietly splitting the difference between them.
Form is read over the last five league outings, with cup ties and internationals weighted separately so a rotated midweek team sheet does not distort a side's league rhythm.
Standings, expected goals trends and home and away splits come into a preview whenever they are relevant to the question the writer is answering, and are left out when they are not.
How we predict sets out the process in full.
Played fixtures are marked with the outcome of the call, including the ones that missed.
A record that only surfaces the winners is worthless, and publishing the misses alongside the hits is the only version of this that means anything.
Previews are published ahead of the fixture and updated when confirmed team news arrives, which for most matches means about an hour before kick off.
The timestamp at the top of each piece tells you when it was last touched, and a preview published on the Tuesday has not seen Friday's press conference.
It is editorial opinion, not advice, and it carries no guarantee of any kind, because football produces results nobody sees coming and that is most of the reason anyone watches it.
Stake only what you can afford to lose, and treat a losing run as the cost of the entertainment rather than a debt the next bet is going to clear.

Match previews and count of it is growing. Every prediction on this page is built the same way: league table context, current form, head-to-head history, team news, and a clear, committed scoreline at the end. No hedged each-way thinking, no filler — just a researched take on what is most likely to happen and why.
The coverage spans leagues across Europe and beyond, from Premier League title races to promotion scraps in the lower divisions of France and Germany. Wherever there is a genuinely interesting game to write about, there is a preview here, and each one follows the same structure so you can find the information you actually need without wading through padding.
I write these as a football fan first. The numbers matter, but so does the narrative — a manager under pressure, a striker who has not scored in seven, a side that has not won away from home since October. Those details shape games as much as the league table does, and they shape the picks here too. Browse by date or competition below, and if you disagree with a call, the reasoning is all there on the page.
