This week classic pools fixtures for UK 2024/2025 season, should see some close ties at both ends of the table across various leagues. Local pride will be at stake across most fixtures with what should be entertaining matches this weekend. We’ve looked through the fixtures and provided head-to-head statistics for five matches we think have the potential to end in a draw.

7 – Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea
Nottingham Forest host Chelsea in a highly anticipated Premier League clash at the City Ground, with both teams vying for crucial points in their respective campaigns. Forest, currently 7th in the league, have been a surprise package this season under Nuno Espírito Santo, blending defensive resilience with clinical counter-attacks. Their recent form (W-D-D-L-W) includes a 2-1 win over Tottenham and a 4-3 defeat to Newcastle, showcasing their ability to compete with top sides but also their vulnerability at the back.

Chelsea, sitting 4th with 14 points, are in fine form under Enzo Maresca (W-L-W-W-W), boasting a potent attack led by Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson. Their recent 3-1 win over Liverpool and 4-2 victory against Brighton highlight their attacking prowess, though defensive lapses, as seen in their 1-1 draw with Forest earlier this season, could be exploited.

This match promises fine margins, with Forest’s home unbeaten streak of four games (2 wins, 2 draws) clashing against Chelsea’s strong away record (3 wins in 5). Forest will look to repeat their 1-0 upset at Stamford Bridge in 2023, while Chelsea aim to extend their historical dominance. Given Forest’s home form and Chelsea’s attacking firepower, a draw seems plausible, especially with both teams’ recent history of sharing points. A 1-1 scoreline, with Wood and Palmer on the scoresheet, is a likely outcome in this evenly matched encounter.

Draws: 5

15 – Getafe vs Celta Vigo
Getafe welcome Celta Vigo to the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in a La Liga clash that promises a tightly contested battle between two mid-table sides. Getafe, currently 13th, have been a tough nut to crack, with their gritty, defensive style yielding three wins and two draws in their last six home games.

Celta Vigo, sitting 7th, have shown flair, with their attacking approach producing moments of brilliance, such as a 3-1 win over Girona. However, their away form is inconsistent, with only one win in five road trips this season. This matchup typically features low-scoring, cagey affairs, expect a physical, tactical duel, with a draw being a strong possibility given their history and current form.

Given Getafe’s home resilience and Celta’s inconsistent away form, a low-scoring draw is likely. A 1-1 result, with Mayoral and Aspas potentially scoring, fits the pattern of their recent meetings.

Total Matches: 34
Getafe Wins: 13
Celta Vigo Wins: 11
Draws: 10

16 – Girona vs Atlético Madrid
Girona face a formidable challenge as they host Atlético Madrid in the final matchday of the 2024/25 La Liga season at the Estadi Municipal de Montilivi. Girona, currently 15th, have had a mixed campaign following their historic third-place finish last season. Their recent form (L-W-L-W-D) includes a 2-1 loss to Getafe and a 1-1 draw with Osasuna, reflecting struggles to maintain consistency.

Atlético Madrid, sitting 3rd, have qualified for the prestigious UEFA Champions League, trailing leaders Real Madrid by just four points. Diego Simeone’s side have been relentless, with a form guide of (W-L-W-D-W), including a 2-4 comeback win over Barcelona and a 3-0 thrashing of Villarreal. Antoine Griezmann and Julián Álvarez form a lethal attacking duo.

Expect a high-intensity clash, with Girona’s attacking ambition testing Atlético’s disciplined 5-3-2 setup. Girona’s home crowd and counter-attacking threat could trouble Atlético, but Simeone’s tactical nous and squad depth make them favorites. A draw or a narrow Atlético win seems likely, with goals expected given their high-scoring head-to-head history.

Atlético Madrid Wins: 5
Girona Wins: 1
Draws: 5

29 – Torino vs Roma
Torino welcome Roma to the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino for a crucial Serie A clash on the final matchday of the 2024/25 season. Torino, have had an inconsistent campaign under Paolo Vanoli, blending moments of brilliance with defensive frailties. At home, Torino are formidable, with 6 wins and 4 draws in 18 matches, driven by Antonio Sanabria and the creative spark of Nikola Vlašić. However, injuries to key players like Duván Zapata, out for the season, have hampered their attack.

Roma, are pushing for a European spot under Ivan Jurić, who faces his former club. Their form is buoyed by a 1-0 win over Fiorentina and a 1-1 draw with Lazio, showcasing resilience despite off-field uncertainties. Paulo Dybala and Artem Dovbyk lead a potent attack, while Roma’s defense, anchored by Gianluca Mancini, has kept 8 clean sheets. Roma’s away record (6 wins, 3 draws in 18) is strong, but their historical struggles in Turin—winning only once in their last 6 visits—suggest a tough battle.

This matchup pits Torino’s physical, direct style against Roma’s tactical flexibility. Given their history of tight, low-scoring games, a draw or a narrow Roma victory seems likely, with Dybala’s quality potentially decisive. Torino’s home resilience meets Roma’s superior quality, but recent low-scoring trends and historical draws point to a stalemate. A 1-1 draw, with Sanabria and Dybala scoring, is a likely outcome, though Roma’s attacking edge could nick a 1-0 win if Torino’s defense falters.

Roma Wins: 22

30 – Udinese vs Fiorentina
Udinese host Fiorentina at the Bluenergy Stadium in a crucial Serie A encounter on the final matchday of the 2024/25 season. Udinese, have had a solid campaign under Kosta Runjaić, marked by flashes of brilliance but marred by inconsistency. At home, Udinese are tough, with 5 wins and 3 draws in 18 matches, led by Lorenzo Lucca and Florian Thauvin. However, injuries to key players like Sandi Lovrić and Maduka Okoye could test their depth.

Fiorentina, form is strong, with a 2-0 win over Cagliari and a 1-1 draw in the Conference League against Vitória Guimarães showcasing their balance. Moise Kean and Albert Guðmundsson drive their attack, while David de Gea’s 10 clean sheets anchor a defense that’s conceded just 15 goals, the joint-best in Serie A.

Udinese’s home form and Fiorentina’s European distractions make this a close call, but the visitors’ superior attack and defense tip the scales. A 1-1 draw, with Lucca and Kean scoring, is a strong possibility given their history of tight, low-scoring games. Alternatively, Fiorentina could edge a 1-0 win if they exploit Udinese’s injury-hit squad.
