A series of club friendlies of late against dubious opponents nowhere near Real Madrid's standards at all really should make Real even stronger favourites tonight.

87th minute winner v Inter adds a little gloss to the win. Home win v Trabzonspor. A tendency to concede since 2011 could be punished tonight.

Have always scored that away goal in recent CL matches .
An ability for Real madrid to get that away goal , so if they don't win, 1-1 could be a saver. Have Real really upped their game last 2 away matches or simply met easier opposition? Will this ability to score 2+ continue today as well as an ability to keep a clean sheet?

well the recent trend of tight matches was broken in Sept 2011.
LEAGUE POSITION - 16th v 12th. Only 3 points separate them.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Bologna
RECENT HOME FORM - LLLWLWDLWD - wins have come against 13th, 15th and 17th. Defeats against 4th, 5th, 7th, 18th and 20th. Inconsistent.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LDWDLLWDDDDW - 3 match draw sequence ended with a 0-3 win away to Inter Milan of all people. Talk about being a difficult side to read!
Recent 1-1's away to 5th and 6th, and 2 0-0's against 14th and 18th. Unbeaten in 6, but 4 of the matches were away from home.
GOAL TRENDS - 30% overs at home. 0.9 scored on average at home. 5 matches at home to bottom 7 were under 2.5 goals. Strong unders trend with 9 of the last 12 matches.Bologna have kept a clean sheet in 4 of the last 6 matches, conceding a single goal away to 5th and 6th.
STREAKS - 2 home matches without conceding. 6 overall without defeat.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - fiorentina
RECENT AWAY FORM - LDDLLLLDWD - only win away was 2nd last match 0-3 emphatic win against 2nd bottom. 2 0-0 draws v 17th and 20th, and playing 16th today. All 4 away draws were 0-0's.

STREAKS - 3 away without defeat. Clean sheet in last 3 away.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - When I was researching Bologna I thought they looked good in this match. Then I looked at Fiorentina and their record against bottom 10, and thought they were good.
Goal trends are strongly favouring under 2.5 goals, so back 0-0 initially and hope it is a tight match initially.0-0, 1-0, 0-1 possible scorelines. Bologna's recent win 0-3 v Inter is a headscratcher.

a history of tight matches in head to heads. No draw in 22 matches for Barnsley is huge. Lay the draw if you think this will continue.12 at home without a draw and Barnsley have scored in last 15 at home.In 5 matches against the top 5, Barnsley have lost 4 of them, 1-0 v 1st and 2nd.
Only 2 clean sheets in 19 for Barnsley could leave them vulnerable.
Birmingham have lost 7 of 9 matches away to top 15 and are playing 16th today. 3 of Brum;s away wins have come against bottom 5. 5 clean sheets in last 6 matches, but 4 at home. Is this a sign of an overall solid Brum of late which can be replicated away from home? A good run of 10 overall without defeat for Brum.
So what's standout? No draw in 22 Barnsley ; Barnsley losing 4 of 5 home and away to top 5;Brum 10 overall without defeat ;Brum 5 clean sheets in last 6 ( 4 at home).
Lay the draw here? Goal trends difficult as overs is obvious from the goal trends , but Brum have had 1 goal in total in last 3 matches, and 5 clean sheets recently.
745pm - Napoli v Chelsea - 2.44 home - oh dear the squatting beardy clown is turning Chelsea into a laughing stock. Clearly the way which brought riches to Porto is not translatable to the pensioners. And any negative result this evening could see Chelsea out of the Champions League and Villa " Oh, arse!" out on his, erm, arse.
Instinctually, you would argue for a very tight match with Italian opposition and a Chelsea side reknowned really for the late late show.

Can't complain. The away goal now will be even more significant. Having kept 2 clean sheets in 2 recent Seria A victories, this is an ideal foundation for what Napoli will be attempting today.

Chelsea have scored in last 5 away matches in the Champions League. That precious away goal. Score 2 against more inferior opponents to tonights. This hints that Chelsea are likely to only score a single goal tonight if they are to score. This could form the basis of any correct score speculation.
8pm - Blackpool v West Ham - 2.46 home
HEAD TO HEADS
| 15.10.2011 | LCh | West Ham | 4-0 | Blackpool FC | |
| 02.02.2011 | PR | Blackpool FC | 1-3 | West Ham | |
| 13.11.2010 | PR | West Ham | 0-0 | Blackpool FC |
Only one head to head of relevance at West Ham.
LEAGUE POSITION - 5th v 2nd. West Ham in the driving seat having 2 games in hand over Saints.Blackpool go 3rd with a win. A match of equal importance to both this evening.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Blackpool
RECENT HOME FORM - WLWDWWLWDWDWWWD - only 2 defeats at home were against 15th 0-1 and 22nd 1-2. A solid recent unbeaten run sees only one defeat in last 13 home matches. Against the top 6 at home, it's a 1-0 win against 3rd placed Reading, 1-1 draw v 4th placed Cardiff, and 2-2 draw v 6th placed Brum.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WDDWLWDWWWDW - the over 2.5 goals of the Premiership year has returned of late. Only 1 defeat in last 12 overall is as impressive as home form of late which could make Blackpool tough to beat tonight.4 wins in last 5 includes 1-3 away win over 4th placed Cardiff.
GOAL TRENDS - 53% overs at home at present but 8 of the last 9 matches have been over 2.5 goals. Blackpool have scored and conceded in their last 6 matches which could aid any overs trade this evening.
STREAKS - 8 at home without defeat, 7 overall. Have scored and conceded in last 6 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - West Ham
RECENT AWAY FORM - WWWDDLWWWWLDLWL -Hammers have lost away to 1st, 3rd, 15th and 16th. Only 4 away defeats all season, and 3 of them have appeared in the last 5 matches, which have only seen a single win. What on earth do we make of recent 2-1 loss to Derby and 5-1 mauling by Ipswich. West Ham team injuries problem? Perhaps check.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WWLLWDLWWWLWD - recent draw v Saints.Recent loss a head scratcher against Ipswich 5-1.Against top 6 home and away, West Ham have lost 3, drawn 1, and beat Blackpool home 4-0.
GOAL TRENDS - 47% overs away from home. Hammers have only conceded 5 goals in the first 1/2 hour of matches this season. West Ham have scored in 14 of last 15 matches.
STREAKS - 3 away without a draw. Have scored in last 9 overall. Have conceded in last 4 overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - 4-0 in recent head to head should hint at advantage West Ham, but Blackpool at home are a different team. Only 1 defeat in 13 at home for Blackpool and only 2 defeats at home. Unbeaten at home against the top 6 teams they have played. Only 1 Blackpool defeat in last 12 overall. 4 wins in last 5 includes a win against 4th away.
8 of Blackpool's last 9 matches over 2.5 goals.
4 away defeats for West ham, 3 of which came in last 5 matches.Only 1 win away in last 5. Last 2 losses v 15th and 16th, includes a 5-1 mauling by Ipswich. Hammers have scored in 14 of last 15 matches.
A toughie to call. Blackpool on a strong unbeaten run, a return to their over 2.5 goals matches, scoring and conceding in last 6. Hammers scored in 14 of last 15. Tough to call a winner here given the recent strong form for Blackpool. They might be able to exploit West Ham's ability to win only 1 in last 5 away.
