Bayern Munich vs Borussia Monchengladbach preview

Bayern Munich host Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with a win securing Hansi Flick's side the league title.
Bayern had to postpone their title celebrations last time out after their shock 2-1 loss against Mainz. But Flick will want to make sure of their victory when they take on Gladbach on Saturday.
The Bavarians were on a four-game unbeaten streak across all competitions prior to losing against Mainz. It now seems inevitable that Hansi Flick's side will win their 31st Bundesliga title.
Meanwhile, Borussia Monchengladbach's recent resurgence in form has put them back in the race for the top six.
Gladbach have only lost one of their last six league games and are currently seventh in the table, four points off Bayer Leverkusen in sixth. They may have left it late, but Marco Rose could possibly be leaving the club on a high at the end of the season.
Bayern Munich could be crowned champions on Saturday, but Gladbach have the quality in their side to postpone the Bavarians' celebrations a further week.

AS Roma vs Manchester United preview

Manchester United have one foot in the final as they take on AS Roma in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League semi-final tie with a 6-2 lead.
Manchester United produced a resounding second-half performance and gave AS Roma a hiding to cruise to a 6-2 victory in the first leg. It's safe to say that they have more or less turned the second leg into a formality after putting six goals past their opponents.
Manchester United are well-rested after their derby match against Liverpool was canceled as the Old Trafford faithful invaded the pitch in protest against the Glazer family's ownership. Meanwhile, AS Roma slipped again and lost 2-0 to Sampdoria. This should be a no-contest.

Manchester City vs Paris Saint-Germain preview

The UEFA Champions League is back in action with another set of crucial semi-final fixtures this weekend as Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City lock horns at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday. Both teams have exceptional players in their ranks and have a point to prove in Europe's premier competition this month.
Manchester City are mere inches away from yet another Premier League title and may well win the league crown next weekend. Pep Guardiola has not won the UEFA Champions League in a decade, however, and has a fair few demons to exorcise on Tuesday.
Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, are embroiled in an intriguing battle with Lille for the Ligue 1 title and have been a few notches below their best this season. The French champions can be a devastating force on their day and will need to be at their best against a strong Manchester City outfit.

West Bromwich Albion vs Wolverhampton Wanderers preview

West Bromwich Albion's relegation could be confirmed if they concede a loss against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
West Bromwich Albion are hanging around in the Premier League by a thread as they welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to the Hawthorns on Monday. They looked on course to earn a sliver of hope this past week when they took a 2-1 lead into stoppage time against Aston Villa.
However, Keinan Davies restored parity for Aston Villa in the 92nd-minute turning the Baggies' hopes of surviving bleaker. They sit 19th on the Premier League, 11 points behind 17th placed Newcastle United. But they will fancy their chances against Wolverhampton Wanderers, whom they defeated 3-2 in the reverse fixture.
Wolverhampton Wanderers received a proper thrashing at the hands of Burnley last week. Sean Dyche's men beat Wolves 4-0 and Nuno Espirito Santos has claimed his side are facing a number of injury issues.
Wolves have suffered in the absence of their main striker Raul Jimenez and have struggled to mount a challenge for a European spot after a couple of solid seasons in the English top-flight.

Valencia vs Barcelona preview

Valencia will be aiming to end their five-game winless run in La Liga when they welcome Barcelona to the Mestalla Stadium on Sunday.
Fresh off Thursday’s shock 2-1 defeat to Granada, Barcelona will aim to quickly return to winning ways and keep their title hopes alive.
Valencia failed in their bid to end their winless run in the Spanish top-flight as they were held to a 1-1 draw by struggling Alaves.
Javi Gracia's men have now failed to taste victory in their last five games, dating back to a 2-1 win over Granada on 21 March.
Valencia have struggled for results this season and are currently 14th in the league table, six points ahead of the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, Barcelona squandered the chance to move into first place as they suffered a shock defeat at the hands of Granada.
Lionel Messi gave the Catalan giants the lead in the 23rd minute. But second-half goals from Darwin Machis and Jorge Molina helped the visitors turn the game on its head and claim a rare win.
Barcelona remain in third place in the log, level on points with Real Madrid and two points behind league leaders Atletico Madrid.
