Wigan Athletic and Millwall dropped out of Ligue 1

Wigan Athletic, whose lightning progress in English football lead to participation in the Premier League and won the Football Association Cup, will play in the third Division next season. They slipped for the second time within three years after Rotherham defeated Reading with 2:1 and ensured participation in the League Championship and in the following year.
Rotherham`s victory sent another glorious Club in the third Division Millwall.
For Wigan, relegation is considered normal, because the town is crazy about rugby and football occupies an emphatic second place in the hearts of the fans. This team would still remain in the history of the local football as the only winners of the FA Cup and in a single season. The victory for the trophy created a real shock in 2013, when the Latics prevailed Manchester City in the final match, played on the mythical Wembley.
The downfall of Wigan began with the departure of the architect of this project, Roberto Martinez. He was succeeded by Owen Coyle, who, however, left his post since before Christmas. Uwe Roesler was then less than a year the management post, and the Small Mackay held for five months. The last relegation was the one of Gary Caldwell.

Football Picks


This is a new day today and you know - a new day is granting you new incredible winning chances! No matter how exactly you will choose to bet, we have something that may catch your eye:

Moreirense vs. Sporting
The team of Sporting is quite the better team that will come out in today`s game, and it would be logical for them to win, as they have already done in 6 of their last 7 games. The form of the guests is excellent and a victory today will ensure their participation in the UEFA Champions League in the next season. They even have a chance to fight for the second place, giving the right to participate in the groups directly. The hosts are 11th in the ranking as they have won only 4 points in their last 6 home games and their chances in today`s game are too small. Our soccer forecast is 2.

Hobro vs. Midtjylland
Midtjylland has proven conclusively to be the best team in the League of Denmark. They are leaders in the standings by 11 points ahead of the second team. Each new victory brings them closer and closer to the title. In fact, hardly anyone doubts that first place will be occupied by them at the end of the Championship. Midtjylland has had 6 wins and 2 draws in the last 8 games. And in the last 4 games against the 6th team in the provisional rankings, Hobro, they have had only wins! The matches of the season have been won very easily by them - 3:0 and 5: (as a guest). Now we doubt things are going to be much different. Our football forecast is 2.

Bologna vs. Catania
Catania is in an excellent shape while the hosts are not exactly in their greatest condition. But that`s the Italian Serie B, and things don`t always happen in a logical way, and often a more convenient way. Bologna, despite their poor form, are only 2 points away from the second place, sending them directly in Serie A. The victory today is important for them to remain in the fight for that second place while the match for guests is irrelevant. They are in the middle of the table and the season is over for them. In the Italian second division, it is more often the more motivated team to win and because of this we would choose Bologna. Our football prediction analyzed by football predictions is 1.

Besiktas vs. Karabukspor
Besiktas are not entitled to a mistake against the team from the relegation zone Karabukspor. The hosts will hit the first place with a possible victory today and would have had to overcome their opponent, who has only 6 points in 13 games as a guest. So, our soccer prediction analyzed by football predictions is 1.

Free Soccer Picks

Our soccer tips via soccer-tips will be very useful to you today - play accordingly to them and you will not regret!

Fiorentina vs. Verona
Fiorentina is going to play against Verona in the last game of the round in Italy. The hosts are required to achieve a victory, since their fight for the rankings in Europe is cruel. Verona, in turn, are deep in the bottom half of the standings, but there`s no opportunity to fall out, so earning points is not at any cost to them. They have not earned a lot of points lately. They only have had one for the last 3 rounds. And in the last three games against Fiorentina, they took no even one point. Our soccer forecast is 1.

Maritimo vs. Nacional
The two teams occupy adjacent positions in the ranking, but the guests are only there because of their good performances as hosts. As guests, they are not performing very well, having earned only nine points from early season matches abroad. In the last 5 games as a guest, that team has had 4 losses and 1 draw. The hosts are in a good shape and the odds offered for their victory may easily seduce us. Our football forecast is 1.

CSKA vs. Lokomotiv Sofia
Let`s take a look now to the Bulgarian Championship, where the tragic presenter team of CSKA will be the host of Loko Sofia. The hosts not only cannot gain well and could not score a goal after the resumption of the League, for 6 games. Locomotiv has had no loss after the winter break. In the last round, they stayed undefeated even against Ludogorets. Their great appearances is the reason to go forward in the rankings and if today they win, then they will occupy the second place. The two teams met once in March, when Lokomotiv won with 2:0. Today, it seems unlikely to lose against CSKA. Our football prediction is X2.

Teplice vs. Viktoria Plzen
The 5th in the Czech Championship is going to accept the leader Viktoria Plzen. The guests are performing greatly this season, winning 19 of the 23 games played so far. They are currently in the amazing series of 10 consecutive wins. Today they will try to make their 10th consecutive victory against a team against who they have had 7 wins in the last 10 direct matches for the championship. Our soccer prediction is 2.

Borussia Dortmund - Hoffenheim (DFB Pokal)

In an interesting match of the quarterfinals of the Cup of Germany, Borussia Dortmund hosts Hoffenheim. The meeting will be played at the stadium "Westfalenstadion" this Tuesday (April 7). The odds for the game offered by the leading bookmaker bet365 are as follows: 1.40 for a home win, with a draw at 5.00 and 7.50 for the victory of the guests. The hosts have already won once against Hoffenheim with 1:0 in a match of the Bundesliga, and generally have only one loss in the last eight meetings here.

At this stage of the tournament matches are elimination type. Other pairs of teams that will compete for participation in the semi-finals are Freiburg and Wolfsburg, Arminia Bielefeld and Borussia Moenchengladbach and Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich.

In the last round of the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund failed to deal with the leader Bayern Munich and lost with 1-0. After this defeat, the mathematical chances of ranking to one of the places entitling participation in the Champions League disappeared.

The coach Jurgen Klopp again will not be able to use all of the available stock. Out with various injuries are the midfielders Kevin Grosskreutz, Nuri Sahin, Oliver Kirch and the defender Lukasz Piszczek.

Guests are not in their best shape. Hoffenheim won only three games of the last 10 played, but their good game in the first half of the season held them to the seventh in the league, or just two points from the sixth place, which gives the right to participate in the Europa League.

The last league match of Hoffenheim was grievous loss with 1:4 from Borussia Monchengladbach. The coach Markus Gisdol is not able to rely on the defender Ermin_Bicakcic.

Borussia Dortmund has only one chance to save the season and it is precisely related by winning the German Cup, so the team should not seek anything other than victory at "Westfalenstadion".

Prediction: -1.5 AH (Borussia Dortmund) @ 1.90 at bet365
