The 2017-18 UEFA Champions League is the 63rd edition of Europe’s premier club soccer tournament and the 26th since it rebranded from the European Champion Clubs’ Cup to the Champions League. Spain’s Real Madrid are the tournament’s defending two-time champions and are the pre-tournament favorites to win their third consecutive title, a feat no team has managed in the modern era. Can they defy the odds and win what would be their 13th UCL?

The Premier League is 25 years old and during those 25 years there have been more than 25,000 goals scored. While all goals are important, not every goal is created equally. Some are simple taps ins from five yards, others are 30-yard thunderbolts, here are the goals that were voted the EPL’s best ever.

The 2018 FIFA World Cup is the 21st competition in its history and takes place across Russia from June 14 through to July 15. Germany are the pre-tournament faves but do you think they will walk away with their fifth World Cup trophy this summer or can England win their first international trophy since 1966?

The 2017 UEFA Super Cup sees the UEFA Champions League winners take on the champions of the UEFA Europa League. This season’s thrilling encounter pits Real Madrid against Manchester United at the Philip II Arena in Skopje, Macedonia at 20:45 CET on August 8.

Home form is vitally important to a soccer team’s success. If you take a look through the record book, teams who have won their league, such as the English Premier League, have always been dominant on home soil. Last season, only Tottenham Hotspur went undefeated at home, can they repeat this feat during the 2017-18 campaign?

The race for the Premier League title is always exciting to watch, even if your team is not involved. Another battle that is intriguing and often more exciting than being at the top of the table is the relegation battle. Nobody wants to be relegated, but three teams will be at the end of the 2017-18 season.

Even if you are an expert when it comes to betting on soccer, it is difficult to predict which team will win the league title, especially in the EPL where at least four clubs have a realistic chance of becoming champions. Instead of betting on outright winners, some bookmakers allow you to wager on a wider range of finishing positions, which can often be the smarter bet to make.

There are few things in sport as exciting as seeing a goals scored in the soccer pitch and the scorer wheeling away in celebration with his team mates, sending the crowd into raptures. Strikers’ goals earn their team the majority of their points, but which forwards will be earning you some profits this coming Premier League season?

The 2017-18 Premier League season is shaping up to be the most exciting since the league began in 1992, some 25-years ago. Bookmakers believe this season will be a three-horse race for the Premier League title, do you agree? Who will you be betting on winning the Premier League during the current campaign?
