Best Football Predictions Table for today 13th August 2022.

Featured Matches

1. Barcelona vs Rayo Vallecano

Kick-off: 20:00

Barcelona acquired new players during this preseason, but it remains unclear if they will participate in this sensational match against Rayo Vallecano. After a disappointing start last season, they finished second in the La Liga table and fans are satisfied with that. With all that has happened, they will be looking forward to a good start this season. Moreover, none of their players are injured at the moment.

Rayo Vallecano started very well last season but began to struggle towards the end of the season. However, they survived relegation because of their decent performances during the beginning of the season, which helped them to accumulate good points. They too have no injured players.

Key Fact

Rayo Vallecano has seen over 2.5 goals in their last three La Liga games.

Despite the uncertainties surrounding the participation of their newly signed players, the likes of Aubameyang and Pedri should be able to help the home side secure the much-needed win. Falcao has become a goal-scoring threat against Barcelona and may open his account tonight, so I am going with Barcelona to win and over 2.5 goals.

3. Manchester City vs Bournemouth

Kick-off: 15:00

Manchester City was able to grab their first win of the season last week against West Ham. It was all thanks to their prolific striker, Erling Haaland, whose performance helped to seal that win. Bernardo Silva may not play due to the controversy surrounding his departure to Barcelona, while Aymeric Laporte is still nursing his knee injury.

Bournemouth, on the other hand, will be motivated heading to the Etihad Stadium as they defeated Aston Villa by a 2-0 scoreline last week. David Brooks will be missed due to his poor health condition.

Key Facts

• Manchester City have consistently defeated Bournemouth in their past 11 meetings.
• Out of those 11 meetings, Manchester City scored 2 goals or more to seal their win against the Cherries.

Even though Bournemouth started on a positive note this season, they have a huge mountain to climb as Manchester City have better player quality than them. My call is for the home side to win with at least a two-goal difference. That is a -1 handicap.

3. Arsenal vs Leicester

Kick-off: 15:00

Arsenal traveled to Selhurst Park last week and was able to dismantle their long-time rivals, Crystal Palace, in a 2-0 thriller. With that performance, the Gunners will be in high spirits to face Leicester City today at home. Their new players, Fabio Vieira and Emile Smith Rowe are still uncertain of being included in this match.

Leicester City played a disappointing 2-2 draw against Brentford last week at the King Power Stadium. They lost focus and gave away a comfortable lead in that match. They also had the problem of allowing their world-class goalkeeper to leave the club. Harvey Barnes and Ricardo Pereira are sidelined.

Key Fact

Arsenal have defeated Leicester City in their past 3 meetings.

The Gunners, who want to finish in the top four, can start their home match with a win. My prediction is for the home team to win at 1.61.
