Portugal - Super League - INFO

Nacional - Setubal 1 @1,60 (9/10)

Nacional da Madeira is in a very good shape, they won a few games in the pre-season against some high rated teams comparing with Nacional. Nacional won the Spanish tournament “Ramon Carranza” winning by 2-1 against Osasuna. This pre-season they won as well against Rennes in a club friendly by 2-0, another game that they won it was against today opponent Setubal by 2-0 and last season they won away Setubal by 3-0. This is just statistics but if Nacional play focus in this match they have everything to win at home.

Pedro Caixinha (Nacional manager) said to the press: “Nacional at home will be favourite against any team. If the team play today like the pre-season games, with quality and focus we can win”

Setubal last years had some financial problems with some players don’t getting them wages in time. But Setubal was in the past a big team in Portugal and they fight always in every game. They have a quality manger (Jose Mota) that made a brilliant job when he was at Pacos Ferreira, his teams play like that is the most important game in them lifes. Setubal have some very experienced players like Jose Pedro or Mayong but both are now above the 30’s, Jose Mota hope this more experienced players can give some advices to the youngster players that don’t have almost any experience in the Portuguese League.

Jose Mota said to the press: “Nacional is a quality team with experienced players that been playing together last 2-3 years... I hope my players play some quality football and hope that the oldest players can give some tranquillity to the youngsters so they don’t be so nervous”

In my opinion this is a game that Nacional can take easily the 3 points if they don’t start the game thinking that it is won already even before the game start. According to the Setubal manager declarations to the press he hope that oldest players can help the youngsters so they don’t play nervous, well this will be first official game and I think this will be a big handicap for Setubal. Nacional is confident, and they must be like that as they made a very good pre-season, the team is almost the same as last years, the players know each other and this can be a big advantage for the home team.

This will be the starting teams

Real Salt Lake - Los Angeles Galaxy (MLS)

Real Salt Lake will be impressive me this season. They are a very good team and booking some good results. At home they are very strong and they are coming from a away win against Chivas. They had one more day rest than LA Galaxy.

LA Galaxy was bad last weekend, also the whole season. Only the last minutes when Portland giving more space away they are creating some good chances. Only they must be happy that they won this match. I don’t know what is happen their, they are playing bad and they don’t have a gameplan. Only for this match they had the great players back in the squad.

INJURY REPORT:
REAL SALT LAKE – OUT: DF Chris Schuler (L foot bone stress response); MF Luis Gil (R knee strain); DF Leone Cruz (L hamstring strain); PROBABLE: MF Javier Morales (R quadriceps strain); DF Jamison Olave (R calf strain)

LA GALAXY – OUT: DF Andrew Boyens (L sports hernia surgery); FW Edson Buddle (R knee surgery); FW Adam Cristman (concussion); DF Omar Gonzalez (L knee surgery); MF Dan Keat (R knee surgery); DF Leonardo (R knee inflammation); QUESTIONABLE: DF Bryan Gaul (facial fracture); MF Hector Jimenez (L quad hematoma)

When Real Salt Lake playing good and concentrating they can make at least 2 goals, but the defensive of LA is the most dramatic line in this team.

PICK REAL SALT LAKE TO WIN @1,85 TRY ALSO HT/FT X/1 LOW STAKE!

Vancouver - New York Red Bull (MLS)

Vancouver Whitecaps very strong at home this season. They only lost one from the 8 matches that they are playing at home. Last weekend they are won against Colorado at home with 1-0. They are unbeaten the last 4 matches in the regular competition.

Red Bulls will be coming from a 3-1 away loss against Chicago and they are playing so bad their. There is only one reason for that loss. They are without Henry, Marquez and Tainio they all can’t also playing in this match. For the attacking line this will be a important reason, in the beginning of the season I was writing that Cooper must be playing near Henry, when that will be starting Red Bulls will be playing good, winning matches and produced some goals.

INJURY REPORT: VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC – OUT: FW Atiba Harris (R knee surgery recovery); FW Omar Salgado (R foot fracture); GK Brian Sylvestre (R knee surgery recovery); DOUBTFUL: MF Matt Watson (R ankle sprain) …

NEW YORK RED BULLS -- OUT: MF Teemu Tainio (R knee sprain); FW Jose Angulo (R knee sprain); FW Thierry Henry (R calf strain); MF Rafa Marquez (R thigh contusion)

INTERNATIONAL ABSENCES: none
SUSPENDED: VAN: Darren Mattocks (through June 20)

PICK Vancouver DRAW NO BET @1,65
