Sheffield United vs Cardiff
John Pentin; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Sheffield United have hit a wall at just the wrong time in their promotion bid, suffering three successive losses that have left their Championship dreams in serious doubt. Their defence has looked particularly frail, with defeats to Millwall, Oxford and bottom side Plymouth raising big concerns. While a win is needed to stay in the automatic race, form at Bramall Lane doesn’t inspire confidence — just five victories from their past eleven home games.
Cardiff, despite battling to avoid relegation, have made a habit of being awkward visitors. The Bluebirds have scored in 12 of their last 14 away matches, and their draw-heavy record (11 away stalemates) suggests they’ll be competitive once more. A stubborn Cardiff, who rarely lose heavily, can certainly get on the scoresheet against a fragile Blades side. With the pressure squarely on the hosts and both teams scoring regularly in their respective fixtures, expect goals at both ends.

Oxford United vs Leeds United
Herrin Kendrick; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Leeds travel to the Kassam Stadium with momentum behind them, thanks to back-to-back victories that have steadied their campaign. Their ability to find goals from various sources is proving crucial, with Solomon and Bogle stepping up while Piroe struggles to rediscover his scoring touch. Still, Leeds have only three away defeats all season, indicating they usually find a way to get a result on the road.
Oxford have impressed at home, netting in 16 of their last 17 at the Kassam, including strong showings against Sheffield United and Watford. While Ciaron Brown’s absence weakens their defence, the hosts still offer plenty going forward with Goodhram and Harris looking dangerous. Given Leeds’ inconsistency at the back — just one clean sheet in their last four away fixtures — Oxford should breach their goal. However, Leeds’ attacking firepower makes them the likelier winners.
Best bet – Leeds to Win and Both Teams to Score
Espanyol vs Getafe
Tyler Morris; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Espanyol are rounding off their campaign with strong form at home, where they remain unbeaten in their last nine league matches. Victories against top-tier opposition, including a memorable 1-0 over Real Madrid, and draws against Athletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid underline how solid they’ve become in front of their own fans.
Getafe also come into this fixture on a high, with six wins from their past seven away games. But they now face a side that’s become extremely tough to beat on their own turf. While both sides boast form, Espanyol’s defensive organisation and narrow wins suggest they are better prepared to edge tight encounters.
With goals likely to be in short supply — seven of the last nine meetings between these teams have ended with fewer than three goals — the hosts’ blend of confidence and defensive discipline should be enough to grind out a result.
Best bet – Espanyol to Win
Rennes vs Nantes
Wolfgang Shotten; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
This local derby in Ligue 1 looks set to be an entertaining encounter. Rennes have lacked consistency at home, losing five of their last seven at Roazhon Park, but they showed their quality with a comprehensive 5-1 win at Le Havre last week. That attacking capability makes them dangerous, even if their defensive record remains patchy.
Nantes, for all their struggles, have a knack for scoring on their travels. Ten of their last 11 away games have seen both teams find the net, and they’ve scored in 22 of their 28 matches this season. They haven’t managed a clean sheet away from home since August — a run of 14 games — and that frailty makes them vulnerable.
Given both sides’ profiles — Rennes’ firepower and Nantes’ threat on the counter — it’s difficult to see either side keeping a clean sheet. A high-tempo affair with both nets bulging feels likely.
Best bet – Both Teams To Score
FC Porto vs Famalicão
Gram Dodd; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Porto have failed to live up to expectations in 2025. What began as a promising title push has unravelled, and with just one home win in their last seven across all competitions, concerns are mounting. They’ve only collected 19 points from 13 matches in the second half of the season, putting them well behind Benfica and Sporting.
Famalicão are quietly enjoying a strong run. Their 3-0 dismantling of Estoril was their fourth win in five, and they’ve scored in eight consecutive games. Their away form has also improved, and they’ll feel confident about getting at a Porto side that’s conceded in five of their last six home fixtures.
With both teams finding the net frequently in recent weeks — especially in games involving Porto at the Dragão — there’s enough evidence to back goals for both sides here. Porto may still win, but they won’t shut out a confident Famalicão.
Best bet – Both Teams To Score
Sporting Lisbon vs Moreirense
Steve Harrington; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Sporting Lisbon enter this round leading the Primeira Liga by goal difference, and their determination to stay at the summit will be fierce. They’ve not tasted defeat at home this season and come into this clash on a 16-game unbeaten league run, with five wins in their last six.
Moreirense are mid-table but not to be underestimated. They ended a five-game unbeaten spell with a 2-0 loss to Rio Ave, but they’ve improved on the road, claiming four points from their last two trips. With a couple of key players returning, they may have enough to nick a goal despite being second-best overall.
Sporting’s home dominance and need for maximum points make them likely winners, but their opponents’ newfound attacking resilience could result in a competitive match. Expect the hosts to prevail, but a clean sheet is far from certain.
Best bet – Sporting Lisbon to Win and Both Teams to Score
