  1. Benfica vs Inter

    Benfica will be looking to improve on their last outing here following the 1-2 Primeira Liga loss in their previous game against Porto. Nevertheless, the Eagles are comfortable on the top of the Primeira Liga table, and this match is much more important for them. Benfica has been on a persistent run of goalscoring form, finding the back of the net every time they've gone out to play in their last six games. They've hit an aggregate of 17 during that period while also conceding a total of 4. They have been quite dominant this season, and Benfica eyes the next round in the top European cup. However, Mihailo Ristić (Hamstring Injury), Gonçalo Guedes (Meniscal Injury), and Julian Draxler (Ankle Surgery) won't be available for Benfica coach Roger Schmidt.

    Last time out, Inter drew 1-1 in the Serie A tie with Salernitana. It was the Nerazzurri's sixth straight game without winning, and they go to this one in poor form. It has become apparent that Inter has suffered from a shortage of goals in their past six games, netting a disappointing return of just 3. In those fixtures, Nerazzurri have also seen the overall goal tally of opposing teams equal 6. That kind of pattern isn't assured to be sustained into this next game, though. They need to do much better in Lisbon if they want to secure a positive result from the first leg. Inter manager Simone Inzaghi has not got a full squad to pick from. Milan Skriniar (Back trouble), Dalbert (Cruciate Ligament Injury), and Hakan Calhanoglu (groin strain) won't be making appearances.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Despite their defeat against Porto, Benfica has been much more confident recently. We see them as favorites in this encounter and believe the Eagles will win in their backyard.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Inter hasn't scored more than a goal on the previous six occasions, and they now face quite a tough opponent. Therefore, we think this match could stay under a 2.5 margin.

  2. Liverpool vs Arsenal

    Liverpool goes into this game after a goalless Premier League drawn result against Chelsea. It was their fourth straight game without tasting a win, and the Reds are huge ten points behind the fourth-placed Manchester United. From their previous six clashes before this one, in 5 of them, a wager on both teams scoring would've been a losing one. Nevertheless, it remains to be seen if the trend might be sustained in this upcoming game or not. Ahead of this meeting, Liverpool is undefeated in their previous six home league matches. On the other hand, the Gunners have not registered a win against Liverpool when they have played them away from home in the previous nine league games. Luis Díaz (Knee Injury), Thiago (Problems with the hip flexor), Darwin Núñez (Unknown Injury), Joe Gomez (Muscle Injury), Calvin Ramsay (Knee Surgery), and Stefan Bajcetic (Tear in the abductor muscle) will not be able to play for Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp.

    Arsenal heads into the game following a 4-1 Premier League win vs Leeds United in their previous game. The Gunners still lead the title race with an eight-point advantage over Manchester City, who also has a game in hand. The stats don't lie, and Arsenal has been scored against in 5 of their last six games, seeing their opponents hit seven goals in total. In defense, Arsenal has clearly had some problems. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Eddie Nketiah (Ankle Injury), Mohamed Elneny (Knee Injury), and Takehiro Tomiyasu (Knee Surgery) will not be playing here.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is going to be an exciting match in which both teams will search for a positive result. However, as Arsenal has been much more confident recently, we think they might return to London with a priceless victory.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Despite having trouble finding the back of the opponent's net recently, we should expect an attacking approach from Liverpool. Also, Arsenal's defense hasn't been too tight, and we shouldn't see teams keeping a clean sheet in this encounter.

  3. Rayo Vallecano vs Atletico Madrid

    Rayo Vallecano prepares for this game after a 1-1 La Liga tied result against Valencia. Despite failing to win seven consecutive times in the Spanish top flight, the hosts lost only two games during that period. It has been a rare occasion in recent times where Rayo Vallecano has managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Rayo Vallecano has been scored against in 5 of their previous six games, shipping eight goals in the process. Nevertheless, they are still sitting in the top half of the table, in 8th place.

    Atlético Madrid will go into the clash following on from a 1-0 La Liga win over Real Betis in their most recent outing. It was Los Colchoneros' fourth straight win, which kept them comfortable in 3rd place. In their last six outings, Atlético Madrid has amassed the sum of 13 goals. Atlético Madrid has also not failed to score in every single one of those games. Over that period, they saw two goals scored by their opponents. That sort of pattern isn't assured to be carried forward here, though. Due to a fully injury-free group available to select from, Atlético Madrid manager Diego Simeone has no fitness worries to report coming into this game.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Although it is a clash of the two local rivals, Atletico Madrid didn't have many troubles beating Rayo Vallecano on the road in their previous encounters. The visitors are in a much better form, and we expect them to celebrate another success.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Their last seven league clashes stayed under a 2.5 margin, and we think the tradition might continue on Sunday evening. Therefore, the crowd shouldn’t expect to see more than two goals in total.

  4. Lazio vs Juventus

    Lazio fans will want a repeat of their previous result, the 2-0 Serie A victory versus Monza. It was their sixth straight game in the Italian top flight without tasting a defeat. Their more recent scorelines show that much respect should be given to the Lazio backline. Lazio has been stingy, resulting in the tally of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their last six outings standing at 4. We shall soon find out whether or not that trend will be continued into this next match. Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just the sole fitness concern for the Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri to contend with due to a largely intact group of players. Mario Gila (Foot Injury) won’t play.

    Previously, Juventus drew 1-1 in the Coppa Italia match with Inter. Nevertheless, Bianconeri celebrated seven times in the previous eight Serie A rounds, which returned them to the continental battle. In 5 of the last six games involving Juventus, a relatively low number of goals have gone in between them and their opponents. The overall average goals scored per game during that spell is just 2.17, with the average goals for Juve standing at 1.67. Going into this contest, Juventus hasn't been defeated by Lazio when they've played them away from home in the last two league games. Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri has a number of players out of action. Kaio Jorge (Fitness), Paul Pogba (Tear in the abductor muscle), and Leonardo Bonucci (Leg Injury) are not able to play. Moise Kean is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It will be an exciting game in which both teams have a realistic chance of picking up points. Therefore, we won’t be surprised if this encounter ends in a draw.

    Goals Market Prediction

    We expect an efficient game since both teams will go for a win on Saturday evening. That’s why we will back both sides to find the back of the opponent’s net.

  5. Southampton vs Manchester City

    Southampton will be hoping to bounce back here after the 1-0 Premier League losing effort in their last game against West Ham United. However, they will face the defending champions, who are in a title hunt. In their previous six fixtures, Rubén Sellés's Southampton has seen rewards for their attempts on goal a total of 5 times which gives them an average number of goals per match of 0.83. The Saints need a perfect display in this match to snatch valuable points in the relegation battle. Juan Larios (Unknown Injury), Arme Bella-Kotchap (Shoulder Injury), Tino Livramento (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), and Kyle Walker-Peters (Hamstring Injury) won't be able to feature for Southampton coach Rubén Sellés.

    Manchester City comes into this game following a 4-1 Premier League win over Liverpool in their previous fixture. The Citizens are full of confidence after the victory over the Reds and now go to face the bottom-placed team. Over the course of their last six clashes, Manchester City has bagged a total of 23 goals. Manchester City has also not failed to score in every single one of those games. During that period, they had 1 goal go against them. However, we will just have to wait and see whether that pattern shall be maintained here in this match. Due to a fully injury-free squad to choose from, Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola does not have any fitness worries to report coming into this game.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Manchester City enjoys a streak of four straight wins, and it would be a huge kick in the teeth if they spill points in this outing. We don't believe Southampton is capable of surprising the rival and Manchester City should celebrate a comfortable victory.

    Goals Market Prediction

    The visitors have improved their defensive work recently, and we expect them to maintain it in this encounter. Therefore, we think the Citizens will keep the clean sheet in this match.

  6. West Ham vs Newcastle United

    West Ham has been playing in solid form lately. Four points from the last two rounds lifted them above the relegation zone. Nevertheless, the Hammers need to continue in the same fashion since they are only one point away from the bottom three spots. Sunday's win over Southampton brought some fresh air to London Stadium, but a much tougher task is ahead of them on Wednesday. Over their past six fixtures, David Moyes's West Ham United has scored a total of 9 times, with that being an average number of goals scored per match of 1.5. The West Ham United manager David Moyes has no fitness worries at all coming into this match thanks to a fully healthy group to pick from.

    Newcastle United heads into the meeting following on from a 2-0 Premier League win vs Manchester United in their most recent game. It is a massive success for the Magpies since those three points returned them to the top-four zone. The numbers tell their own story, and Newcastle United has been scored against in 5 of their last six games, conceding eight goals overall. Defensively, Newcastle United has seen their frailties exposed. Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has not got a full squad to pick from. Matty Longstaff (Knee Injury), Emil Krafth (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), and Miguel Almirón (Thigh Problems) are names that won't be on the team sheet.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is an important game for both teams, and three points from it would help them achieve their goals this season. Although the game could go either way, we think the visitors are a bit closer to a victory.

    Goals Market Prediction

    West Ham's offense is one of the least efficient in the Premier League, while Newcastle United has conceded only 19 goals so far. Although neither team managed to keep a clean sheet in their last four h2h clashes, we don't expect to see more than two goals in total on Wednesday evening.

  7. Chelsea vs Liverpool

    Chelsea is playing a season to forget, currently occupying the eleventh position in the table. Continental football next season is quite far, and the Blues should focus on rebuilding their squad, even after huge investments in the past year. Graham Potter's Chelsea has netted eight times over their preceding six outings. The corresponding number of goals that have been scored against them in those games is 7. Chelsea has found the back of the opponent's net only 29 times in 28 matches, and they haven't won in the previous two rounds. Thiago Silva (Ligament Injury), Raheem Sterling (Hamstring Injury), Mason Mount (bruised pelvis), and Armando Broja (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) aren't available for Chelsea coach Graham Potter.  

    Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Manchester City in Premier League action, Liverpool will be hoping to turn things around here. It was their third straight defeat in all competitions after thrashing Manchester United 7-0. A tendency of at least one team not managing to score in games involving Liverpool has become noticeable in recent matches. A glance at their last six outings reveals that it has happened five times. In these clashes, opposing sides have hit a goal aggregate of 6 while Liverpool has scored 10. The Reds will have the tough task of finishing the campaign among the top four teams. Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has some current player fitness concerns. Luis Díaz (Knee Injury), Thiago (Problems with the hip flexor), Darwin Núñez (Unknown Injury), Joe Gomez (Muscle Injury), Calvin Ramsay (Knee Surgery), and Stefan Bajcetic (Tear in the abductor muscle) miss out here.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is going to be a tight clash of two out-of-form teams. Although it could easily go either way, we think Liverpool is a bit closer to a victory, and we are going to back the Reds.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Six of the previous seven h2h clashes of these two sides stayed under a 2.5 margin. Interestingly, neither team managed to score in 90 minutes of their last three encounters. Therefore, we don't see this game producing more than two goals in total.

  8. Everton vs Tottenham Hotspur

    Everton enters this game following a 2-2 Premier League tied result vs Chelsea. That point could boost the Toffees' confidence ahead of the crucial part of the season, where survival is at stake. Sean Dyche's Everton has hit the back of the net six times in their prior six outings. The comparative number of goals that have been scored against them in that time amounts to 10. Ahead of this clash, Everton has not emerged victorious against Tottenham Hotspur in their last four league games. Breaking that bad record would be priceless for the home side. Andy Lonergan (Knee Problems) and Andros Townsend (Cruciate Ligament Injury) won't be playing for Everton boss Sean Dyche.

    In the game prior to this, Tottenham Hotspur drew 3-3 in the Premier League match with Southampton. Despite staying in the top-four zone, the Spurs are just two points ahead of Newcastle, who also has two games in hand. Cristian Stellini's Tottenham Hotspur has converted a total of 8 times in the course of their most recent six matches. The number of goals they conceded during those same clashes equals 6. Tottenham Hotspur boss Cristian Stellini, an interim manager after sacking Antonio Conte, has to contend with reduced team options currently. Yves Bissouma (Ankle Fracture) and Rodrigo Bentancur (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) won't be making appearances.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Everton has tied three games without tasting a defeat, while Tottenham is not in good momentum. The home side might take advantage of that to pick up priceless points at Goodison Park.

    Goals Market Prediction

    The hosts' offense has been struggling this season, while the Spurs have conceded in three games in a row. Therefore, we think both teams will be able to find the back of the opponent's net in this clash.

  9. Napoli vs Milan

    Napoli is hoping to win again following the 4-0 Serie A triumph vs Torino. They are comfortable on the top of the table, with 19 points more than the 2nd-placed Lazio. A recurring feature of recent Napoli games is the number of nil scores. From their previous sextet of clashes before this one, in 6 of them, a wager on "Both Teams to Score" would have been a loser. That sort of pattern isn't assured to be carried forward here, of course. Almost everyone can be considered, as there's just one fitness concern for the Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti to contend with due to a largely intact group. Bartosz Bereszynski (Knee Injury) will miss out.

    Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Udinese in Serie A competition, Milan will be hoping to turn things around here. Rossoneri cannot be happy with their recent form after snatching only a point in the previous three rounds. During their six latest matches, Stefano Pioli's Milan has seen its goal attempts be successful a total of 6 times, thus giving them the goals per game average of 1. The defending champions have not lost to Napoli when they have played them away from home in the previous three matches in the league. However, a tough challenge is ahead of them this time.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Napoli has a much better momentum, and they look unstoppable at the moment. The only concern we have ahead of this clash is that these two teams will face each other in the Champions League quarter-finals in ten days. Nevertheless, we will back the home side in this clash.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Despite being quite efficient, Milan's defense has been very porous lately. Therefore, we believe neither team will keep a clean sheet in this encounter.

  10. Newcastle United vs Manchester United

    Newcastle United will be looking for another win after the 2-1 Premier League success vs Nottingham Forest. It was the Magpies' second straight victory after a winless period, which kept them in the race for the Champions League ticket. It has been seldom in recent times that Newcastle United hasn't conceded. The facts show that Newcastle United has seen its defense breached in 6 of their previous six matches, letting in 9 goals during that time. We will have to see whether or not that trend will be continued in this game. The hosts haven't lost in the league to Manchester United in their previous two games. Almiron (Thigh injury), Fraser (Illness), Krafth (Knee injury), and Gordon (Ankle injury) will be out of selection for this match.

    Manchester United comes into this meeting after a 3-1 FA Cup win over Fulham in their most recent fixture. However, the Red Devils failed to celebrate in the previous two Premier League rounds. Proving their fondness for high-scoring matches, the back of the net has been hit 21 times in the last six games in which Manchester United has taken to the pitch, giving a mean average of 3.5 goals per fixture. Their opponents have managed 10 of those goals. Going into this one, Manchester United remains unbeaten by Newcastle United in away games against them for the last two league matches. Van de Beek (Knee injury), Eriksen (Ankle injury), Garnacho (Ankle injury), Casemiro (Suspended), and Greenwood (Out of squad) won't feature in the selection for this encounter.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It will be an exciting game that can easily go either way. Both sides need points, so we won't be surprised if they split points at St. James's Park on Sunday evening.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Newcastle United has the toughest defense in the competition, allowing only 19 goals this season. It will be a close game, and we don't expect to see more than two goals in total.

  11. Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund

    Bayern Munich will be hoping to return to winning ways here following a 2-1 Bundesliga loss in their previous game against Bayer Leverkusen. This defeat pushed them down to 2nd place, one point behind their upcoming rivals. At least three goals per match were recorded in 5 of the past six meetings in which Bayern Munich has taken part. Their opponents scored 9 of them in this period, whereas Bayern Munich managed to get a total of 15. That pattern might not be continued into this match, though. Jamal Musiala (Hamstring Injury), Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (Back trouble), Arijon Ibrahimovic (Virus Infection), Paul Wanner (Adductor problems), Lucas Hernández (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), and Manuel Neuer (Fracture of the lower leg) won't be playing for Bayern Munich gaffer Thomas Tuchel.

    Borussia Dortmund will go into the game after a 6-1 Bundesliga win vs Cologne in their most recent game. They are full of confidence after a great run in 2023 that returned them to the title race. Demonstrating their appetite for productive encounters, we've had goals 22 times in the previous six games in which Borussia Dortmund have taken to the pitch, yielding a mean average of 3.67 goals each clash. Their opponents have got seven from this total. Borussia Dortmund manager Edin Terzić has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Julien Duranville (Muscle partial avulsion), Gregor Kobel (Thigh Problems), Jamie Bynoe-Gittens (Shoulder Injury), Mateu Morey Bauzà (Fitness), Julian Brandt (Torn Muscle Fibre) and Youssoufa Moukoko (Ruptured syndesmotic ligament) miss out here.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Bayern Munich might be a favorite in this clash, but the bookies have underestimated Borussia Dortmund a lot. The visitors have a much better momentum, and we think they could leave Allianz Arena undefeated.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Their head-to-head encounters usually bring piles of goals, and we don't expect anything different this time. The crowd should enjoy at least four goals on Saturday evening.

  12. Manchester City vs Liverpool

    Manchester City will be looking for a repeat result of the 6-0 FA Cup victory versus Burnley. However, the defending champions are eight points behind Arsenal, having one game in hand. Their most recent results highlight the fact that not much more can be done by the Manchester City rearguard. Manchester City has been miserly, seeing the number of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their last six games standing at 1. The Citizens should keep up good form if they want to continue challenging for the trophy.

    Following on from being beaten in their last game against Real Madrid in Champions League action, Liverpool and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. The Reds have suffered two straight defeats, and they cannot allow more setbacks if they want to clinch a Champions League ticket. The trend of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games featuring Liverpool has become evident of late. Looking at their last six games shows that it has happened five times. In these clashes, opposing sides have managed a goal total of 7, and Liverpool has scored 11. We shall soon see if that trend will be continued in this game. Undoubtedly, Liverpool will have a tricky challenge at Emirates Stadium.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is an important game for both teams to accomplish their current ambitions in the Premier League campaign. However, we think Manchester City is closer to a victory, and the hosts should deliver it.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Their recent h2h clashes have been pretty efficient, as eight of the past ten went over a 2.5 margin. Moreover, the BTTS Yes pick was successful in seven of their last eight encounters. We believe that tradition will continue on Saturday afternoon.

  13. Spain vs Norway

    Spain heads into this fixture after a 0-0 WC drawn result vs Morocco, after which they got knocked out after a penalty shootout. It was another unsuccessful campaign for La Furia Roja, and they made heavy changes to their national team. Their more recent scorelines show that there has been much resilience in the Spain defense. Spain has been mean at the back, resulting in the tally of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their past six matches, standing at 4. Regardless, time will tell if the trend will be replicated in this upcoming game or not. Luis de la Fuente has not been afraid to upset the big names. There is no Sergio Ramos, Jordi Alaba, or Sergio Busquets in his first squad – and he has also had to replace the injured Pedri and Gerard Moreno. Borja Iglesias could come in upfront, along with the popular Iago Aspas. Kepa Arrizabalaga could get a surprise start, while Barca defender Alejandro Balde may begin at left-back.

    In their previous game, Norway drew 1-1 in the International Friendlies tie with Finland. After missing the World Cup action, they want to secure qualification in this campaign. The stats don't lie, and Norway has been scored against in 5 of their last six games, letting opponents get eight goals in all. In defense, Norway has some weaknesses to address. The big news for Ståle Solbakken is that he will have to make do without Erling Haaland up front. The Manchester City striker has been enjoying an incredible season and could have made this one a much tougher game to call. Now Real Sociedad's Alexander Sørloth will be looked to for goals, with Mohamed Elyounoussi also asked to provide an attacking thrust.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Spain has rejuvenated the team, and we are keen to see whether those changes will bring improvements in their game. We think the hosts are set for a confident start, and they will open this campaign with a victory.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Norway has quite a talented squad, but we don't think they will enjoy much of a game in Malaga. Therefore, Spain might keep a clean sheet in this encounter.

  14. France vs Netherlands

    France enters this fixture after a 3-3 WC drawn match against Argentina. It was an epic match in which Les Bleus managed to get back after trailing 2-0, but they lost the title after a penalty shootout. It's been seldom in recent games where France has kept a clean sheet. The facts show that France has failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous six clashes, letting in 7 goals along the way. Let's find out if that trend will be continued here. Deschamps' plans have been disrupted by issues in defense, with William Saliba forced to pull out due to injury and Raphael Varane retiring from international football at the start of 2023. Mike Maignan will replace former captain Hugo Lloris in goal, but the majority of France's key names have been called up.

    In their previous game, the Netherlands drew 2-2 in the WC tie with Argentina. Like their opponents, Oranje also went to a penalty shootout, but they were not clinical enough. A run of hard-working performances from the Netherlands defenders has seen their' goals against' tally standing at four from their last six outings combined. During the same time, their forwards have managed to score 11. Koeman has confirmed his plan to revert to a traditional Dutch 4-3-3 system in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, which will begin in Paris. However, several important players will miss this encounter since they caught a virus.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    The atmosphere in the French team has been heated up in the previous months, which might impact their performances. On the other hand, the Netherlands will have severe issues with players sidelined due to a virus. That's the only reason why we will back the hosts in this match.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Both teams have an attacking approach, and that shouldn't change in this clash. It should be an entertaining encounter in which both teams should be able to find the back of the opponent's net.

  15. Italy vs England

    Italy will be looking for an improved result here following the 2-0 International Friendlies defeat in their last game at the hands of Austria. However, that game was played in November 2022, and now the Azzurri seek a new beginning after missing the World Cup. Roberto Mancini's Italy has scored eight times in their prior six outings. The number of goals that have been scored against them in those games stands at 8. Roberto Mancini has called up three uncapped players to the Italy squad, with Wladamir Falcone, Alessandro Buongiorno, and Mateo Retegui all hoping to feature in the upcoming fixtures. The return of Federico Chiesa from injury will be key, but Ciro Immobile and Federico Dimarco are still sidelined.

    Since a losing effort in their last game against France in WC action, England and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. The Three Lions finished their World Cup journey in the quarter-finals, and they want a successful start here. In as many as 5 of the previous six games involving England, three or more goals have been struck. The overall average goals scored per game in that spell is 3.83, with the number of goals averaged by England equalling 2.67. However, we'll just have to find out if that pattern might be replicated in this next match. With a fully healthy squad available to choose from, the England boss Gareth Southgate doesn't have any fitness concerns at all before this clash. Gareth Southgate is likely to stick with a tried and tested formula on Thursday and will be able to welcome Reece James and Ben Chilwell back from injury. Ivan Toney has received a call-up but is unlikely to start, with Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi also named in the squad.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Italy must show its strength at home and with the support of a full stadium. In the first match in a difficult away game, England will try to shake the hosts with counterattacks. There will be a lot of tactical outwitting of both coaches, and the prediction for this match is a draw.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Both teams have talented offenses, and we expect the hosts to attack and forget about the disappointment of missing the World Cup. Therefore, we think neither team will keep a clean sheet in this encounter.

    Barcelona will want to continue from where they left off last time out with a 1-0 La Liga success against Athletic Bilbao. That victory kept Barca's nine-point advantage against their fierce rivals intact. Under three goals per game were recorded in 5 of the last six fixtures in which Barcelona has taken part. In terms of the goal attribution from this period, opposing sides scored an aggregate of 3 while Barcelona managed the sum of 6. Heading into this fixture, Barcelona hasn't been defeated in their previous 12 league matches at home. A run that they'll hope to extend here. Adrià Pedrosa (Groin Injury) and Keidi Bare (Ruptured ankle ligament) are not available for Barcelona boss Xavi Hernández.

    Real Madrid heads into the match following a 1-0 Champions League win to beat Liverpool in their previous fixture. However, Los Blancos need to provide a serious effort to retain the La Liga title at the end of the campaign. Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid has fired home ten times throughout their previous six matches. The aggregate of goals that have been scored against them during those same clashes equals 5. The defending champions have not lost to Barcelona in away games against them for the last three matches in the league. Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has not got a full squad to pick from. Ferland Mendy (Muscle Injury) and David Alaba (Hamstring Injury) can't be considered.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    El Clasico is never easy to predict, and in their most recent clash, Barcelona celebrated in Madrid in Copa del Rey. We think Real Madrid will be more focused on winning the Champions League while Barcelona seeks La Liga glory. Therefore, we don't see the away side winning this match.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Both teams have been involved in low-scoring games lately that didn't produce more than one goal. Barcelona conceded only eight goals in the Spanish top flight, and we expect another low-scoring game on Sunday evening.

  17. Inter vs Juventus

    Inter prepares for this game after a 0-0 Champions League drawn match vs Porto. Thanks to remaining undefeated in that game, Nerazzurri secured a place in the Champions League quarter-finals. Their more recent scorelines reveal that not much more can be done by the Inter rearguard. Inter has been mean at the back, with the tally of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper during their last six games standing at 4. Going into this encounter, Inter is unbeaten in their previous three league matches at home. Regarding the selection issues, Dalbert (Cruciate Ligament Injury) and Robin Gosens (Leg Injury) aren't available for Inter coach Simone Inzaghi.

    Juventus will go into this encounter following a 4-2 Serie A win to defeat Sampdoria in their previous match. They have been in quite good form lately, and Bianconeri have returned to the top-six race. In the course of their six last matches, Massimiliano Allegri's Juventus have turned their attacks into goals 14 times - giving them the goals per game average of 2.33. Coming into this clash, Juventus has left without a victory over Inter in games played away from home for the previous two league games. Leonardo Bonucci, Paul Pogba, and Alex Sandro are all ruled out until next month, with Polish striker Arkadiusz Milik only just making a return to training.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is going to be an exciting game that can easily go either way. Inter hasn't been impressive lately, and Juventus could take advantage of that to remain undefeated. That's why we won't be surprised if this game ends in a draw.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Their recent h2h clashes at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza have been quite entertaining, and this one shouldn't be much different. Just one of their last eight head-to-head matches in Milano didn't bring a BTTS Yes bet, so we believe both teams will score on Sunday evening.

  18. Arsenal vs Sporting

    Arsenal, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 3-0 Premier League victory versus Fulham. The Gunners remained the top-placed Premier League team, being five points ahead of Manchester City. Three or more goals per game were recorded in 5 of the last six meetings in which Arsenal has taken part. Their opponents scored six times in these games, while Arsenal amassed a tally of 17. There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the lone fitness concern for the Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to contend with from an otherwise fully-primed set of players. Mohamed Elneny (Knee Injury) won’t play.

    Sporting Lisbon comes into this clash after a 3-0 Primeira Liga win in the defeat of Boavista in their previous game. The Lions have improved their form, and that was their fourth straight win in the Portuguese top flight. In their last six clashes, Sporting Lisbon has helped themselves to a total of 15 goals. Sporting has additionally got on the scoresheet on each one of those occasions. Over that period, they’ve had four goals scored by their opponents. Sporting Lisbon boss Rúben Amorim has not got a full squad to pick from. Héctor Bellerín (Unknown Injury), Daniel Bragança (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), and Antonio Adán (Unknown Injury) won’t be making appearances.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is going to be an interesting match that can go either way. However, we think Arsenal has the ability to be competitive on the continental stage as well, although the Premier League is their top priority. That’s why we are going to back the hosts to celebrate a win.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Both teams have been pretty efficient recently, and we expect them to continue that trend. Therefore, this game could also go over a 2.5 margin.

  19. Betis vs Manchester United

    Real Betis head into this game following a 1-1 La Liga drawn match vs Villarreal. They stayed in the top-four race, remaining three points behind Real Sociedad. Betis has been finding it hard to keep clean sheets of late, although they have also found ways to score goals themselves. Over their last six matches, Betis has conceded in 5 of them, in addition to managing to get on the scoresheet in 5 of those games. Since they are 4-1 down in this tie, they need a perfect display to knock out Manchester United from the competition. Regarding the availability issues, Juan Cruz (Muscle Injury) and Nabil Fekir (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will be missing for Real Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini. Martín Montoya will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

    In their last game, Manchester United drew 0-0 in the Premier League match with Southampton. They couldn't do better after Casemiro was sent off in the early stage of the game. Demonstrating their bias toward fruitful matches, goals have been seen as many as 21 times in the previous six games in which Manchester United has taken to the field, making it an average of 3.5 goals per clash. Opposition teams have managed ten from this total. Putting that to one side, we'll just have to find out if that pattern shall be maintained in this game or not. Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Anthony Martial (Hip Injury), Christian Eriksen (Ankle Injury), and Donny van de Beek (Knee Injury) are not ready for selection.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Man Utd will likely control their energy consumption in this game, given their comfortable lead and the fact that they visit Newcastle next weekend. Therefore, we think Betis can stay undefeated in front of its fans.

    Goals Market Prediction

    A BTTS Yes wager was the winning one in seven of Betis's last eight matches. Manchester United has also been involved in high-scoring games recently, and we think neither team will keep a clean sheet in this encounter.

  20. Real Madrid vs Liverpool

    Real Madrid will be looking for another win after a 3-1 La Liga victory vs Espanyol. Although they are still quite far from the top spot, Los Blancos haven't given up on defending the La Liga title. Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid has hit the target 11 times in their past six outings. The comparative number of goals they conceded in that time stands at 5. Real Madrid defends a 5-2 advantage from Anfield, and they are in a commanding position. Ferland Mendy (Muscle Injury) and David Alaba (Hamstring Injury) are not available for Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti.

    After being defeated in their last game at the hands of Bournemouth in Premier League competition, Liverpool and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. The trend of at least one team not managing to score in games involving Liverpool has been apparent of late. Looking at their last six outings shows that it's occurred five times. During these clashes, their opponents have managed a goal tally of 6 while Liverpool has scored 13. That sort of pattern isn't assured to follow through into this next game, however. Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has multiple availability issues to deal with. Luis Díaz (Knee Injury), Thiago (Problems with the hip flexor), Arthur Melo (Surgery), and Calvin Ramsay (Knee Surgery) will not be playing here.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Liverpool goes to this game after another disappointment in the Premier League. Although this game can go either way, we consider Real Madrid as a slight favorite, and they might win again.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Real's defense hasn't been too tight lately, while Liverpool should attack them from the first minute. Therefore, we see both teams finding the opponent's back of the net in this encounter.

  21. Napoli vs Eintracht Frankfurt

    Napoli, buoyed by their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after a 2-0 Serie A triumph versus Atalanta. They got back to the winning track, and Napoli marches towards Scudetto. Their most recent results reveal that huge efforts have been put in by the Napoli rearguard. Napoli has been mean at the back, resulting in the tally of goals that have gone in at their end during their previous six outings standing at 1. They bring a solid advantage from the first leg match and are in full control of this tie. Regarding selection issues, Min-Jae Kim (Calf Problems) and Giacomo Raspadori (Hamstring Injury) won't be able to feature for Napoli coach Luciano Spalletti.

    In the game prior to this, Eintracht Frankfurt drew 1-1 in the Bundesliga tie with Stuttgart. Despite failing to win four times in a row in all competitions, the German side is still in the race for a top-four finish. The stats tell the story, and Eintracht Frankfurt has been scored against in 5 of their last six matches, with opponents netting ten goals overall. Defensively, Eintracht Frankfurt has clearly had some problems. We shall soon see if that trend will end up being sustained into this next match. Eintracht Frankfurt boss Oliver Glasner has multiple availability issues to deal with. Junior Dina Ebimbe (Syndesmotic ligament tear), Ansgar Knauff (Hip problems), and Jesper Lindström (Ankle Injury) are not able to play. The players ineligible for this match because of suspension are Randal Kolo Muani, Marcel Wenig, Simon Simoni, and Jens Grahl.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    Napoli has been quite confident, and we don't have doubts they will proceed to the quarter-finals. Moreover, they should win this match as well.

    Goals Market Prediction

    The hosts have been quite disciplined in the back recently, and we expect them to sustain that trend. Although Eintracht has a talented offense, we believe this game will stay under a 2.5 margin.

  22. Manchester City vs RB Leipzig

    Manchester City will be hoping for a repeat of their last result following a 1-0 Premier League success against Crystal Palace. Thanks to that win, they remained active in the Premier League title race. Their most recent results show that huge efforts have been put in by the Manchester City defense. Manchester City has been miserly, seeing the total number of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their past six games standing at 3. After a 1-1 draw in the first match in Leipzig, the Citizens aim to meet expectations in front of their fans. The Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola does not have any fitness worries at all before this match, with a completely injury-free squad available to select from.

    RB Leipzig goes into this match after a 3-0 Bundesliga win to beat Borussia Mönchengladbach in their most recent outing. The Red Bulls have stayed in the top-four race, and they come to Manchester full of confidence. In as many as 5 out of the previous six games involving RB Leipzig, at least three goals have been struck. The overall average number of goals per match within that time is 2.83, with the number of goals averaged by RB Leipzig being 1.83. RB Leipzig boss Marco Rose has multiple availability issues to deal with. Dani Olmo (Torn Muscle Fibre), Xaver Schlager (Syndesmotic ligament tear), Christopher Nkunku (Torn Muscle Fibre), Abdou Diallo (Knee Problems), Péter Gulácsi (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), and Timo Schlieck (Meniscal Injury) won’t be making appearances.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is going to be an interesting clash, but we believe Manchester City is a big favorite in front of their fans. Therefore, the hosts should celebrate a victory and proceed to the next round of the competition.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Man City kept its net intact three times in a row, but RB Leipzig will try to score at least once. Neither team managed to keep a clean sheet in their three h2h clashes, and we expect the tradition to continue on Tuesday evening.

  23. Porto vs Inter

    Porto will be looking for a repeat result of the 3-2 Primeira Liga victory versus Estoril. That win gave them a boost of confidence ahead of this clash and a battle to stay in the top two of the Portuguese top flight. It’s been all too rare in recent games where Porto has shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Porto has failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous six matches, giving up seven goals during that time. After a narrow defeat in Milano, the Dragons need to win this match in 90 minutes. Evanilson (Muscle Injury), Galeno (Muscle Injury), and Gabriel Veron (Ankle Injury) won’t be able to feature for Porto gaffer Sérgio Conceição. Otávio cannot play in this game through suspension.

    Since being defeated in their last game at the hands of Spezia in Serie A action, Inter will be aiming to make amends here. A bad thing for Nerazzurri is that they didn’t rest their main players, and still, they lost that match. A run of resolute performances from the Inter defensive players has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 4 from their past six clashes overall. In that time, the number of goals they scored themselves is 7. Inter manager Simone Inzaghi has not got a full squad to pick from. Dalbert (Cruciate Ligament Injury) and Milan Skriniar (Lumbago) will not be playing here.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    We expect another close game since both teams have decent chances of progressing to the quarter-finals. It is never easy to play at Estadio do Dragao, and we think Porto might take this game to extra time, at least.

    Goals Market Prediction

    Porto’s defense has been pretty leaky recently, while their attacking potential is quite significant. That's why we believe both teams will manage to find the back of the opponent’s net in this encounter.

  24. Athletic Bilbao vs Barcelona

    Athletic Bilbao enters this fixture following on from a 0-0 La Liga stalemate versus Rayo Vallecano. That was the third straight winless game for them that kept them in the middle of the table. It has been all too rare in recent times that Athletic Bilbao has shown defensive steel. The reality is that Athletic Bilbao has seen their defense breached in 5 of their previous six matches, letting in 7 goals during that time. Going into this one, Athletic Bilbao has not registered a win against Barcelona in their last six league games. Unai Simón (Achilles tendon problems), Jon Morcillo (Collarbone fracture), and Ander Herrera (Hamstring Injury) won't be playing for Athletic Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde.

    Barcelona comes into this match following a 1-0 La Liga win vs Valencia in their previous fixture. Although the visitors haven't been very convincing, they are nine points ahead of Real Madrid. During their six last matches, Xavi Hernández's Barcelona has managed to stick the ball in the net seven times, earning them the goals per game average of 1.17. Going into this contest, Barcelona remains undefeated by Athletic Bilbao when having played them away from home in the previous two league games. Barcelona manager Xavi Hernández has not got a full squad to pick from. Keidi Bare (Ruptured ankle ligament) and Adrià Pedrosa (Groin Injury) will miss out on this game. Ronald Araújo is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

    Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

    It is never easy to play in Bilbao, and despite the home side's poor form, they might produce a surprise here. We think Athletic can stay undefeated in this encounter.

Fulham hasn't had any problems with scoring, hitting the target in one hundred percent of their last six games. They have hit an aggregate of 11 during that period while seeing the number of goals scored against them stand at 6. However, the hosts have not registered a win against Arsenal in their previous nine league games.
