TOTW20 Predictions

Starting Eleven

Sampdoria were away to Roma for their weekend fixture where in an incredibly tight match, they just managed to secure the points with a 1-0 victory. It was anything but smooth sailing though and took 8 incredible saves from Viviano, including one from the spot, to ensure a clean sheet was kept.

AC Milan were hosts to Lazio for a Sunday Serie A fixture and while the game was incredibly tight, one side managed to just edge the win. With a 2-1 victory for AC Milan, our nomination goes to their left back, Calabria. An assist and solid all round performance could be enough to see him recieve his first Inform too.

Bayern played hosts to Hoffenheim for their Bundesliga fixture and in a game of seven goals, it was the hosts who emerged as 5-2 victors. We have plenty of possible candidates for this TOTW, and I wouldn’t even bu surprised to see two sneak in, but our nomination goes to Boateng with a solid game and a goal.

Staying in the Bundesliga here with Schalke travelling to Stuttgart. In a comfortable 2-0 victory for the travelling side, it was Naldo who really stood out. A fantastic defensive display combined with a sensational goal will surely see Naldo cruise into the lineup.

Fulham have found some fantastic form as of late, but this man in particular is on a whole different level. Fulham beat Barnsley 3-1 on the weekend and once again, Sessegnon bagged two of them. A third Inform feels extremely possible as well as a big money summer move perhaps!

In an important match towards the top of La Liga, Real Madrid were on the road to hosts Valencia. In a five goal game, it was the visitors who outclassed their opposition with a comfortable 4-1 victory. While Ronaldo scored twice from the spot and Marcelo once from LB, they both recently had TOTY cards, so move over and give Kroos his moment!

Juventus were away to Chievo for their Serie A clash on the weekend, where in a dominating display they left 2-0 victors with all the points. Higuain bagged one of these goals, which simply won’t be enough for a second Inform here however Khedira was fantastic in the midfield and also bagged the other!

Villarreal were hosts to Real Sociedad for their La Liga fixture and in a game of 6 goals, it was the hosts who emerged as 4-2 champions! While there were some solid performances across the board, Castillejo with his one goal and assist was the player who really stood out.

We move over to the Serie A now where and in Lazio’s first game of the week they were hosts to a travelling Udinese and were also 3-0 winners too. Anderson was the man who stole the show, with a goal, an assist and an almost perfect performance, surely he has done enough to bag himself an Inform.

Over to Ligue 1 now where an on fire PSG were hosts to Montpellier. In yet another confident victory, PSG left as 4-0 winners and while Neymar was the standout superstar, his current TOTW removes him from these predictions. Instead we turn to Cavani, a goal and an assist may be enough, but if not I expect to see Di Maria!

Our final spot in this week’s starting eleven goes to a Belgium striking sensation by the name of Mertens. Napoli were hosts to Bologna for their weekend match and in a 3-1 victory, Mertens scored twice and set himself up for a potential third Inform too!
