Borussia started the season in the Bundesliga quite worthy, having managed to create serious competition for Bayern over a long segment of the tournament distance. However, the team of Marco Rose failed to spend the entire first lap without errors, allowing the Bavarians to break away. The Bumblebees currently sit second on the table with 37 points, being six points behind the leader. The handicap before the last round was even larger, but Borussia managed to take advantage of the mistake of the main competitor in the fight for the title in the last round. In the away match against Eintracht the “bumblebees” conceded two goals in the first half and looked generally unconvincing, but gave out a powerful ending and beat the “eagles” with a score of 3:2, having obtained a second victory in the last three rounds.
Crystal Palace had a poor start in the League Cup, where they could not even get through one stage, but had a successful start in the FA Cup, where they beat Millwall with a score 2:1 last week. The team is having a good season in the Premier League, where every year the capital is gaining momentum. The glaziers entered the new championship with a new mentor, who became Patrick Vieira in the summer. Over 20 rounds the Eagles recorded five wins and eight draws, which brought 23 points and 12th place in the standings. The line of attack looks good, which differed 29 times, although the capital conceded more goals per game. In December the guests managed to beat Everton (3:1) and Norwich (3:0), while at home they shared the tournament points with Southampton (2:2). In 2022 the Eagles played one game. On January 1, the team lost in the London derby to West Ham (2: 3). Today Scot MacArthur, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to take part in the match.
