Marquee Matchups Week 5 Prediction
We’ve been doing very well recently with our Marquee Matchups Predictions, predicting 2.5/4 games last week. This week features a more standard Marquee Matchups selection, with domestic football back under way.
Manchester United - Liverpool
We’re all familiar with the rivalry between these two big clubs. With Liverpool storming ahead in the league, and Man Utd somewhat struggling, could the Red Devils put a spanner in the works in Klopp’s title bid?
Borussia Dortmund - Borussia Mönchengladbach
The Borussen Derby looks to be a likely inclusion in Marquee Matchups this week, and with only 4 points separating the two teams, this could be a vital game at the top of the Bundesliga.
Atlético Madrid - Valencia CF
An inclusion from La Liga is a likelihood this week. Being top clubs, and with only 3 points separating them, Atletico - Valencia looks like a solid potential inclusion
Central Coast - Newcastle Jets
Being the oldest derby in Australian football, the D3 Derby looks to be a great potential inclusion, and would be the “lower-tier” option that EA like to throw into Marquee Matchups from time to time.
