Saturday’s Football Tips: Real Madrid, France & Shamrock in Action – Who Can Be Trusted?

Top football tips for Saturday: Our team of seasoned experts have analysed Saturday’s standout fixtures and delivered four carefully selected betting tips. Each prediction is backed by in-depth research, match trends, and form analysis to ensure a smart edge for punters. Below, you’ll find each tip with full rationale and expert attribution.

🇫🇷 France Women vs England Women

Expert: Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
France Women have been in irresistible form ahead of their tournament clash with England, stringing together an eight-match winning streak that includes dominant displays over Belgium and Brazil. Their attacking trio of Diani, Baltimore and Katoto have been especially dangerous, regularly creating chances and stretching defensive lines with their movement and pace.

England, while still dangerous, are not the same force that lifted the Euros in 2022. Key injuries have disrupted their defensive core, and they were beaten at home by France in qualifying. Sarina Wiegman’s side have attacking quality in Mead and Russo, but their defence looks vulnerable when put under sustained pressure.

France’s ability to transition at speed and exploit space could decide the match. Their confidence and cohesion, coupled with England’s defensive uncertainty, makes a win for Les Bleues the most sensible play here — particularly at strong odds in such an even-looking clash.

Best bet: France Women to Win

🇳🇴 Tromsø IL vs Molde

Expert: Wolfgang Shotten; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Tromsø are enjoying an impressive resurgence in the Eliteserien this season, with six successive league victories propelling them into fourth. Their balanced approach — solid defensively and decisive in attack — has made them difficult to stop. They’ve scored in each of those six wins while conceding in four, indicating a high-scoring rhythm.

Molde’s form has taken a worrying dip. Five defeats from their last seven games tell the story of a team that’s struggling for consistency. While Veton Berisha offers a goal threat, the defensive unit has looked disjointed, and they’re conceding far too many chances — including against teams far weaker than Tromsø.

With Tromsø in such strong form and Molde leaking goals regularly, the hosts should find the net. However, Molde’s attacking potential means they can still get on the scoresheet, making both teams to score the logical selection in a match likely to be open and competitive.

Best bet: Both Teams to Score

🇮🇪 Sligo Rovers vs Shamrock Rovers

Expert: Steve Harrington; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Shamrock Rovers have put together a title-worthy campaign, sitting top of the League of Ireland and boasting the division’s best attacking record. Although they were recently edged by Bohemians away, they rebounded with a controlled victory and have won nine of their last 12 league fixtures. Burke and Noonan lead a potent front line.

Sligo, meanwhile, are in a precarious position, second bottom and struggling to generate consistency. Their defence has been breached far too often, and suspensions only further limit their options at the back. That said, they have shown signs of life at home, scoring in five of their last six at The Showgrounds.

Shamrock’s superiority is clear, but Sligo’s desperation and home form suggest they won’t go down quietly. The league leaders should have too much quality, but a consolation goal from the hosts could ensure this ends up as another goal-filled victory for Shamrock.

Best bet: Shamrock Rovers to Win and Over 2.5 Goals

🇺🇸 Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund

Expert: Tyler Morris; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Real Madrid are slowly shifting through the gears at the Club World Cup and have shown signs they are ready to explode. A 5-2 demolition of Juventus last time out underlined their attacking credentials, and they’ve now hit three or more goals in four of their last five matches.

Borussia Dortmund, by contrast, have come through a relatively soft section of the tournament, failing to truly impress. They squeezed past Monterrey last round, but their defending looked shaky, particularly under pressure from fast transitions. That’s a serious concern against the likes of Vinícius Júnior, Mbappé and García, all of whom are capable of breaking games open in an instant.

Madrid have also enjoyed consistent success against Dortmund, winning each of their last five meetings. The Germans may nick a goal thanks to Guirassy’s form, but the overall class and depth of Madrid should shine through again.

Best bet: Real Madrid to Win and Over 2.5 Goals

🧲 Saturday Super Double

For our Saturday Daily Super Double, we’ve picked two fresh selections not mentioned above, but still from the same matches:

• Tromsø to Win vs Molde¹

• England Women to Score First vs France Women

Rationale:

England Women have opened the scoring in three of their last four matches and could strike first against a France side that starts cautiously. Tromsø, unbeaten in six and dominant at home, should have enough to edge out an inconsistent Molde outfit. A smart-value double with contrasting markets and strong statistical backing.
