TOTW10 Predictions

Starting Eleven

Stuttgart were hosts to Dortmund for their weekend fixture where in a tightly contested match, they just managed to steal the points. Zieler their goalkeeper was the star of show, with a total of 7 fantastic saves including one from the spot, he deserves his place in these predictions, even if they scored on the rebound!

Arsenal played Tottenham in their weekend Derby and the result was one that shocked most. In a spectacular showing they almost seemed to cruise to a 2-0 victory over their rivals and Mustafi with a fantastic header to score the first and a clean sheet, is the one who takes the spot.

Schalke were hosts to Hamburg over in the Bundesliga, and due to some fantastic defensive displays they not only took the points but a clean sheet as well. Naldo was at the heart of this defence and while he may not have scored, his defensive showing was spectacular.

Zenit cruised to an easy 5-0 victory on the weekend and while there were plenty of fantastic performances, Ivanovic is the one who stood out to me. With a clean sheet, an assist and a goal, he ticks every requirement in my eyes.

It was only a matter of time until P2G cards starting making these predictions and this week sees our first! PSG beat Nantes 4-1 in their Ligue 1 match with Pastore scoring once and assisting another. There were plenty of strong performances this week, let's just hope this was enough.

Liverpool picked up what seemed like an easy 3 points against Southampton on the weekend, and if Salah hadn't already had 2 special cards he would have been here too! Coutinho had an incredible game, assisting, scoring and just doing what Coutinho does best. He deserves this card.

In a 4-1 win over Newcastle, Manchester United looked like they had found their form again, and the return of players like Pogba really seemed to influence this. With a goal and an assist from midfield, we could be seeing one insane team of the week.

Roma were hosts to Lazio in this massive league game and it was the hosts who managed to just about close it out and secure those points. A fantastic performance from Nainggolan in the midfield secured dominance, while his goal was simply the icing on the cake.

Bayern cruised to an easy 3-0 victory over Augsburg in their Bundesliga match and with this we see yet another powerhouse squeeze into these predictions. With a goal and an assist from midfield, could Vidal add his name to this ever growing list of superstars?

Chelsea travelled to West Brom for their weekend fixture and this time the journey paid off. In a comfortable 4-0 win, Hazard from a CF slot managed to score twice. This TOTW simply has no limits.

As expected, Barcelona picked up an easy 3 points against Leganes in their La Liga game. Suarez was on form again, scoring twice and possibly giving us the highest rated card of these predictions!

Substitutes

Akhisarspor travelled to Benfica for their weekend fixture and despite the force of attack thrown at them, they managed to withstand it all. Besiktas managed a total of 22 shots which forced 6 saves from Lukac, including one from the spot.

SC Heerenveen travelled to FC Twente for their weekend match, and once again it was the visitors who prevailed. In a dominating 4-0 victory, Hoegh not only ensured a clean sheet was kept but also managed to score one himself.

Ajax travelled to NAC Breda and I don't know what happened on that journey, but they were all kinds of crazy! In an 8-0 thrashing, Ligt from the CB spot kept that clean sheet and also buried 2 himself!

The 8-0 win for Ajax was simply so big that we have not one, but two players who find themselves in these predictions. Beek pulled off an incredible 3 from a central midfield spot to all but guarantee he makes the cut!

Sampdoria were hosts to the travelling Juventus in this weekend fixture and although the game looks close at 3-2, Juventus couldn't even score until the 90th+. With a dominant performance at CB and a goal to his name, Ferrari is my choice although a few others have chances for sure.

PSV were the away side for their league fixture this weekend where an incredible performance from their CB secured all the points. Keeping a clean sheet and scoring the only goal in a 1-0 win has to give him a chance at least!

Wolfsburg were hosts to Freiburg in this Bundesliga clash where the hosts pulled off a convincing 3-1 victory. Malli stole the show scoring twice from midfield and ensuring they took the points.

It's very difficult to ignore anyone who scores a hat trick when writing these predictions, and that's not going to change today. Bournemouth were comfortable winners against Huddersfield in their PL fixture and it was Wilson with 3 goals who shone the brightest. This one is surely a lock.

Istanbul Basaksehir hosted Galatasaray for their match and with it we find our second hat trick of the predictions. Picking up 3 goals in a 5-1 thrashing, Adebayor is surely also taking home a shiny new inform card too.

Spartak Moscow were away to FC Krasnodar in this Russian league match and once again the journey paid off. In a comfortable 4-1 victory, Adriano not only scored twice but assisted the third, it's almost our third hat trick!

Werder Bremen were hosts to Hannover back in the Bundesliga where a comfortable 4-0 victory was secured. Kruse not only scored 3, but also assisted the fourth making it our most impressive hat trick so far!

Our final pick his week sees an old legend renter the picks. Not only did Soldado score 3 during this 4-1 victory, but he also managed it in half the time after coming on as a second half sub. The boys still got skills!
