Dragons stay two clear as Sarajevo stumble before the season’s biggest clash
BH Dragons remain narrowly in front in Bosnia and Herzegovina after thirteen rounds, but FK Sarajevo 1946 are refusing to let the defending champions escape. Dragons lead with 33 points, Sarajevo follow on 31, FC Peacocks almighty have 26 and F.C. Imperial sit fourth on 23. The leading pair have created separation, turning the championship increasingly into another direct duel.

Senad Cavkusic replied late, but the result gave Dragons their eleventh win and kept them two points clear.
FK Sarajevo 1946, however, dropped two valuable points in a 0–0 draw at Dinny. Despite entering the round only two points behind, Sarajevo could not find a breakthrough against the eleventh-placed side. Their first league draw therefore prevented them from matching Dragons at the summit.

With their direct clash coming in Round 15, the championship could swing dramatically before November begins. Peacocks and Imperial will also be watching closely, knowing any shared points between the leaders could reopen the wider title contest.

Round 14 brings For The Alliance at home against San Stefano, while Returnees host Grobari Berane. Ostrog face S.V. Werder Bremen and Nottingham meet Yellow Pillow. The leaders therefore have a difficult fixture, while their closest challenger has a chance to apply pressure.

Round 18 then brings Nottingham against Alliance, before Round 21 delivers the biggest remaining clash: For The Alliance against Returnees.
Last season San Stefano won the title with 47 points, level with For The Alliance but ahead on the final standings, while Nottingham finished third. This season Alliance and Returnees have moved to the front, with Ostrog close enough to challenge.
Montenegro remains a genuine multi-team race. Alliance hold the advantage, Returnees are only two points behind, and Ostrog, Nottingham and San Stefano remain close enough to punish any stumble. With several direct clashes still ahead, the championship is far from settled.
Grosuplje FC move top as Borussia stumble before decisive showdown
Grosuplje FC have taken control of Slovenia after thirteen rounds, moving one point clear of Borussia Dortmund at the summit.

Milan, hammertime host kfc de preistampers and Fc Bijou meet Sasboys. With so many direct clashes behind the leaders, Goldstar have an opportunity to widen their advantage.
The schedule remains dangerous later. Round 16 brings Goldstar against hammertime, Round 18 sends Goldstar to EA SERREKES, and Round 19 delivers Goldstar against THE VILLABOYS. Round 21 then brings Merchtem against hammertime, before the final round finishes with Goldstar hosting Merchtem2016.
Last season Goldstar won the title with 45 points, two ahead of hammertime. This season they again lead, but the chase behind them is far deeper and more congested.
Goldstar and Merchtem will also meet in the domestic cup quarter-finals on 3 November, adding another layer to their rivalry. hammertime face kfc de preistampers there, while Fc Bijou meet SC Betekom in another all-league tie too.
Belgium remains one of the tightest leagues below first place. Goldstar hold the advantage, yet every dropped point could pull the champions back toward a pack where almost nobody has managed to create lasting separation.
Galacticos stumble as Porto close to within one in Portugal
Galacticos C.P. remain on top of Portugal after thirteen rounds, but their advantage has been reduced to a single point. The defending champions lead with 27 points, Futebol Clube do Porto follow on 26, Sá City Futebol Clube have 23 and Sá FC sit fourth on 22. With the leading four separated by five points, the championship remains finely balanced.
Round 13 brought a surprise as Galacticos lost 2–1 away to promoted New Order. Licinio Seco opened the scoring before Antero Maximo equalised, but Karolis Paliusis struck the winner in the 72nd minute. It was only Galacticos’ second league defeat, yet it allowed Porto to move onto their heels.
Futebol Clube do Porto took full advantage with a dramatic 5–3 victory over S. C. Pena d´Alva. Rolando Mamede scored twice and Carmel Magri completed a hat-trick, although Porto had trailed 3–2 at half-time. The comeback gave them their seventh win and left them one point from first place with just one defeat all season.
Sá City Futebol Clube strengthened their challenge by beating alfistas 3–1. Anselmo Carniel levelled the match before Aristides Luz scored twice in the second half. Sá City sit four points behind the leaders. Sá FC were held 2–2 by Vale Pisão after leading 2–1, leaving them five points from first.
Elsewhere, Sumolix Stars beat FC Saense 1–0, while ODC WaRrIoRz v2 defeated Sport Machados da Surriba 2–0.
Round 14 gives Galacticos a home match against Vale Pisão, while Porto host FC Saense. Sá City face ODC WaRrIoRz v2 and Sá FC visit Sport Machados, so all four contenders have fixtures they will expect to attack.
The later schedule contains several decisive meetings. Round 15 brings Sá FC against Sá City, Round 16 sends Sá City against Galacticos, and Round 18 features Porto against Sá City. Round 20 then brings Sá FC against Galacticos, before the final round delivers Sá FC against Porto.
Last season Galacticos won the title with 37 points, finishing level with S. C. Pena d´Alva but ahead in the final standings. This season the champions again lead, but Porto have become the clearest threat.
Portugal has developed into a four-team race. Galacticos hold first place, Porto are only one point behind, and both Sá clubs remain close enough to punish any stumble. With direct clashes still ahead, the championship could change hands repeatedly before December.
Round 13 kept the Allsvenskan title race tight as Nordic Vikings and Norrlandsfotboll FC both collected huge wins against inactive opposition. Nordic crushed Wardens of the North 16–0, while Norrlands demolished BK National 20–0. Slovenia Dreamteam, however, dropped two important points in a goalless draw with Eneby BK and now sit three points behind the leaders.
Nordic remain first on thirty-one points, only one ahead of defending champions Norrlands. Slovenia are third on twenty-eight, with IFK Hägersten moving up to fourth after a 7–0 victory over ÖFK. Eneby follow on twenty-four, while Bałtyk Gdynia and Rutger Boll Klubb are level on twenty-three.
Round 14 looks favourable for the leading pair. Nordic host SuperIbra, while Norrlands travel to Uppsala Kickers, giving both strong chances to keep winning. Slovenia Dreamteam visit inactive BK National and should also take maximum points. The most competitive fixture may be Eneby BK against IFK Hägersten, with only one point separating them. Bałtyk face ÖFK, while Rutger Boll Klubb visit Wardens, so the pressure remains firmly on Slovenia to avoid another slip this time.
Steelheads Pull Clear as Four Clubs Crowd the Chase
Round 13 strengthened The steelheads’ control of Switzerland as the unbeaten leaders defeated Terror City United 6–2. Timo Astley and Luis Portal Frias both scored twice, while Petrisor Cires and Daniel Zirn found the net. The victory moved steelheads to 33 points and extended their advantage to eight.
Behind them, the race tightened dramatically. FC Albisrieden lost 1–0 to FC KOFA, with Cvijan Darmanovic scoring the only goal. That defeat left Albisrieden on 25 points, level with Fc Black Panther and NK Bugojno. Black Panther edged inactive CB Churer Öglia 1–0, while Bugojno beat HyperVibes 3–1. KOFA’s win moved them to 24 points, only one behind that trio.
Elsewhere, fc walhalla and AC TORINO drew 0–0, while FC Appenzell and fc schönspieler produced another goalless match.
Round 14 brings a major test for the leaders as NK Bugojno host The steelheads. Bugojno sit fourth and can cut the gap with a statement victory, while steelheads have the chance to push another challenger further away. Black Panther visit Terror City, KOFA travel to schönspieler, and Albisrieden face inactive Churer Öglia.
With steelheads on 33 points and Albisrieden, Black Panther and Bugojno all on 25, the title picture is increasingly split between one runaway leader and a crowded chasing pack. KOFA remain close on 24, so every slip below first place immediately changes the order. The steelheads remain in command, but Round 14 offers one of the clearest opportunities yet for a rival to slow their momentum.
MPAlger seize first as Algeria’s six-team battle tightens again
MPAlger have taken over at the top of Algeria after thirteen rounds, but almost nothing separates the leading pack. MPAlger lead with 25 points, RC Kouba follow on 24, while USM Alger and Banu Zayan FC are level on 22. Mouloudia Club Oran have 21 and M.C.Algiers 20, leaving six teams within only five points of first place.
Round 13 delivered the biggest result at the summit as MPAlger beat RC Kouba 1–0. Mohamed Mahdi Moussouni scored the decisive goal in the 71st minute, giving MPAlger their seventh league win and moving them above the defending champions. It was also Kouba’s second consecutive defeat after their 3–0 loss to EL KSEUR STARS FC in Round 12.
USM Alger continued their climb with a 1–0 victory over M.C.Algiers. Mokdad Bouchrit scored after seven minutes, and USM protected the advantage to move onto 22 points. Banu Zayan FC also reached 22 by beating The Black Pearl 3–1, with Cecil Lopes scoring twice and Jacek Filipiak adding another.
Mouloudia Club Oran were held to a 1–1 draw by USMKouba, leaving them fifth on 21 points. Elsewhere, alger united beat Itihad.Riadi.Ouled.Nail 1–0, while EL KSEUR STARS FC defeated USM.GAZA 3–2 with Fadil Karabugra scoring the winner in the 90th minute.
Round 14 offers another opportunity for movement. MPAlger host USM.GAZA, RC Kouba visit alger united and USM Alger face The Black Pearl. Mouloudia Club Oran host EL KSEUR STARS FC, while Banu Zayan meet Itihad.Riadi.Ouled.Nail.
The schedule becomes even more important afterward. Round 15 brings RC Kouba against Banu Zayan and MPAlger against Mouloudia Club Oran. Round 17 then delivers MPAlger against USM Alger, before Round 19 sends Mouloudia against RC Kouba. Round 21 brings USM Alger against Kouba, and the final round features MPAlger against Banu Zayan.
Last season RC Kouba dominated the championship with 51 points, fourteen ahead of alger united. This season the picture is completely different, with the champions now chasing and five rivals close around them.
The domestic cup adds further tension too, with MPAlger facing Banu Zayan in the quarter-finals while USM Alger meet alger united on November 3.
Algeria has become one of the tightest title races in the competition. MPAlger hold the narrow advantage, but Kouba, USM Alger, Banu Zayan, Mouloudia and M.C.Algiers all remain close enough to change the order quickly. With so many direct clashes still ahead, every dropped point now carries serious weight.
Royal Pari Stay Unbeaten as Blooming Prepare Crucial Test
Royal Pari stayed unbeaten and three points clear after a 9–1 win over F.C. LEONES del ORIENTE, while Club Bolívar kept the pressure on with a 15–0 victory over CD Jorge Wilstermann. Defending champions Blooming also won comfortably, and Juan Carlo Balón remained fourth after beating c2h5ohhh 7–0.
Round 14 brings the headline clash between Blooming and leaders Royal Pari, with the champions needing victory to close the five-point gap. Club Bolívar face inactive F.C. LEONES SANTA CRUZ, while Juan Carlo Balón visit Club Atlético Ciclón. A Royal Pari win would further strengthen their control of the title race significantly.
• Last seasons Top teams: 1st - Blooming (61 points), 2nd - Royal Pari (61 points), 3rd - Juan Carlo Balón (54 points), 4th - Club Bolívar (51 points)• Promoted this season: c2h5ohhh, F.C. LEONES del ORIENTE, F.C. LEONES SANTA CRUZ
Unbeaten Udi stay four clear as Brazil approaches a major showdown
Udi City F.C remain firmly on top of Brazil after thirteen rounds, still unbeaten and holding a four-point advantage over Nivek United. The defending champions have 27 points from seven wins and six draws, Nivek follow on 23, while São Paulo F.C. and Na Canela™ are level on 21. Avanti Palestra! sit fifth on 18, leaving the leading four with the clearest championship positions.
Round 13 saw Udi City beat Avanti Palestra! 2–1. Tulio Pinero opened the scoring after six minutes and Andrei Zevian doubled the lead five minutes later. Armanno Amoroso pulled one back in the second half, but Udi held on and extended their unbeaten league run to thirteen matches.
Nivek United were held to a 1–1 draw by Na Canela™. Duba Niteroi gave Nivek an early lead, but Aelson Da Rocha equalised in the 90th minute. The late goal denied Nivek a victory that would have kept them only two points behind the leaders, while Na Canela remained level with São Paulo on 21.
São Paulo F.C. took advantage with a 2–0 win over Atlético Potiguar, Cleber Granemann scoring both goals. Their defense has conceded only seven goals, second only to Udi. Guará E.C edged Geny F.C 1–0, Big Soccer FC beat Candal FC 2–0, and Touro do Sertão defeated Desportivo Sol by the same score.
Round 14 brings an important clash between São Paulo F.C. and Na Canela™, while Udi City travel to Guará E.C. Nivek host Geny F.C, meaning the nearest challenger has a favourable opportunity to keep pressure on the leaders.
The biggest collision comes immediately afterward. Round 15 brings Udi City F.C against Nivek United, a direct meeting that could either tighten the race or create meaningful separation. Round 17 then sends Udi to Na Canela, while Round 19 brings Nivek against São Paulo. Round 21 features São Paulo against Udi, another potentially decisive fixture.
Last season Udi City won the title with 44 points, two ahead of Guará E.C, while Nivek finished third and São Paulo fourth. This season Udi have again set the pace and remain the only unbeaten club in the division.
Brazil therefore remains a four-team race, but Udi hold the strongest position. Nivek are closest, while São Paulo and Na Canela are still within two victories of first. The direct matches ahead will decide whether Udi can defend their crown or finally be dragged into a tighter battle.
Monks and NorVan Stay Locked Together at the Summit
Round 13 kept Canada’s title race locked tight as Bulletproof Monks beat Étoile Bordjienne 2–0, with Zbigniew Zeromski scoring both goals. NorVan FC matched them with a 2–0 victory over Football club de Taher, remaining unbeaten and level on 31 points.
The Lads and Quebec Football Club shared a 1–1 draw after Pablo Lazaro equalised in the 90th minute, leaving both close behind the leading pair. FC Newmarket also collected a win against inactive Canary.
Round 14 offers fewer direct clashes among the contenders. Bulletproof face inactive North Mississauga, NorVan meet inactive Toronto Blizzard, Quebec visit inactive Canary and The Lads travel to inactive Rampe Vallee. The main active contest is Étoile Bordjienne against Football club de Taher. With Monks and NorVan level at the top, and The Lads only two points behind, every dropped point now carries serious consequences in Canada’s compressed race for the championship.
Round 13 blew Mexico’s title race wide open as Assisi Lagos Nueva Galicia beat Fc MEWA 3–2 in the weekend’s headline clash. Nedim Gencsal opened the scoring, while late goals from Garcia Gallaga and Svetomir Bukva overturned MEWA’s advantage and pulled Assisi level on 33 points.
Octopus MX moved within a single point after a 7–0 win over inactive FC United Regensdorf, while Panteras Negras UAM strengthened fourth place by beating Real Geminis 3–1 in the increasingly crowded chasing pack.
Round 14 offers fewer direct battles at the top. Panteras host Perro Loko FC in the strongest active matchup, while Real Geminis face Guadalajara. MEWA, Assisi, Octopus and Jorge Campos all meet inactive opposition and will expect three points. With MEWA and Assisi tied on 33 and Octopus just behind on 32, one slip could completely reorder the top three. Mexico’s championship fight has become a genuine three-way battle, with Panteras still close enough to punish any prolonged stumble ahead.
• Last seasons Top teams: 1st - Octopus MX (57 points), 2nd - Fc MEWA (57 points), 3rd - Assisi Lagos Nueva Galicia (48 points)• Promoted this season: FC United Regensdorf, Tigres Dorados, Brancos FC

Round 14 gives Seher a trip to Velez, the same opponent who handed them their only league defeat this season. Real Madrid visit inactive TeamScout, while Galaxy travel to Goal Diggers looking to recover immediately. SmarTeam face Telluride in another important test, and New Jersey visit FC Ironbound.
With Seher on 30, Real Madrid on 26, Galaxy and SmarTeam on 25, and New Jersey on 23, the leaders have created breathing room but remain under pressure. Real are now the closest challengers, while Galaxy cannot afford another draw. Round 14 could either strengthen Seher’s control or compress the chase again, especially with several contenders facing awkward away fixtures.
