MARQUEE MATCHUPS

 

This game-week proves difficult to make strong, actual predictions based of logic, history, rivalry or sheer importance. Like usual, we aren't going to start including games to simply make up the numbers or fill the page and with EA being so completely random with their selection process, anything could happen right now! It is important to remember we have a lot of cup matches coming up over the next week or so and while EA usually decide to leave these out, this could be when we start seeing them sneak into selections. 

 

Lyon vs Marseille

Our first game today sees us travel over to Ligue 1 for a derby known only as "The Choc des Olympiques". The fixture gets this title due to both sides having Olympique in their name. Investments here are fairly straight forward as both teams have plenty of gold cards available and due to the recent Ligue 1 SBC, supply should be a little more limited allowing larger profit margins on discard cards. 

 

Manchester City vs Tottenham

For our second pick today, we head back over to the Premier League and while this match may not be a derby, the size of both teams and importance of the match carry this selection into our predications. Last week we saw EA ignore both the Manchester and Merseyside derbies, so a return to the Premier League seems likely. Once again, plenty of gold card investments are available so aim for solid ratings, positions, nationality and most importantly prices. 

 

KS Cracovia vs Wisla Krakow

For our next pick we move over to the Polish league where we find Cracovia hosting Krakow in a battle known only as the Holy War. Again, we are referring to Wikipedia here, but apparently the rivalry came about due to the teams being the biggest in Krakow, while the name was given by a KS Cracovia defender named Ludwik Gintel. Investing here leaves us extremely limited while searching for gold players, however when we begin to jump down a tier or two, we have plenty of discard options! 

 

Sparta Rotterdam vs Feyenoord

Our next selection sees us head over to the Eredivisie, but before we jump into discussing this pick, it is important to note that a match from this league features in the current MM and hence this match immediately becomes a lot less likely. The Rotterdam derby, is the collective name given to any match between the three sides; Feyenoord, Sparta Rotterdam and Excelsior. Once more, investing is simple with a wide variety of gold cards available for all investors! 

 

Club Brugge vs Anderlecht

While our final pick today is once again not a derby by name, it certainly holds significant importance to the fans and carries a lot more weight than another simple league match. First place Club Brugge are hosts to the third placed Anderlecht in this Pro League match. When it comes down to investments there seem to be a variety of gold card options available, however if these begin to run dry, stay away from paying too much above discard and simply move down to silver players that tick this category.
