Juventus vs Inter Milan
Herrin Kendrick; Sports Journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
The latest instalment of the Derby d’Italia sees Juventus and Inter Milan collide in what promises to be another thrilling contest. Juventus, despite their defensive resilience at times, have struggled to keep clean sheets in recent weeks. While their European campaign has provided moments of encouragement, their defensive frailties have been exposed, particularly from set pieces—an area where Inter have thrived this season.
Inter, on the other hand, have been one of the most dangerous attacking sides in Serie A, especially away from home. With Lautaro Martínez in fine form and the potential return of Marcus Thuram, they will look to exploit Juventus’ defensive lapses. The visitors have also been prolific from dead-ball situations, which could spell trouble for the hosts. Given Inter’s firepower and Juventus’ ability to find goals in big matches, another high-scoring affair looks likely in Turin.
Best Bet: Over 2.5 Goals
Benfica to score over 2.5 goals | |
29/20 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Benfica have netted three or more in five of their last six Primeira Liga games and face a Gil Vicente team on a seven-game winless streak. The visitors boast far superior quality and form, and another high-scoring performance should be on the cards against a defence struggling for structure and confidence.

Rennes vs Lille
Steve Harrington; Sports Journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Ligue 1 clashes between Rennes and Lille have frequently delivered goal-laden encounters, with five of their last seven meetings producing three or more goals. Rennes have been leaky at the back, conceding in two of their last three home fixtures, while Lille’s recent matches have been full of attacking action.
Despite their inconsistent form, Lille remain a team with attacking potential, having netted twice or more in 11 of their 21 league games this season. Rennes, meanwhile, have managed to find the net in eight of their last nine outings. Both teams have attacking quality but remain prone to defensive lapses, which should make for an exciting, end-to-end affair. With Rennes looking to climb the table and Lille aiming to maintain their European push, expect an open contest with plenty of opportunities.
Best Bet: Over 2.5 Goals
Lyon to win | |
6/4 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Lyon are unbeaten in their last six and full of attacking threat, while Strasbourg’s strong run has largely come against weaker sides. Given Lyon’s historical dominance and recent form, especially from Cherki and Mikautadze, the visitors should edge this contest even against one of Ligue 1’s most organised defensive units.
| |
Parma vs Roma
Wolfgang Shotten; Sports Journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Parma welcome Roma in a Serie A clash that could deliver plenty of goalmouth action. The visitors have been in fine attacking form, scoring in nine of their last ten league matches. Roma’s recent away record is impressive, having secured back-to-back victories on the road, and they will be confident of breaching Parma’s defence.
Parma, meanwhile, have been involved in goal-heavy fixtures, with their last three matches featuring at least three goals. Their defensive struggles have been evident, as they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last five league outings. Roma, despite their superiority on paper, have not been entirely solid at the back either, which should create an open game. Given Parma’s home struggles and Roma’s tendency to find the net, this fixture is likely to see multiple goals.
Best Bet: Over 2.5 Goals
Under 2.5 goals | |
8/11 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Tranmere have become more difficult to break down under new management, while Cheltenham’s recent form has tailed off. With both sides struggling for attacking fluency and favouring cautious approaches, a tight encounter is expected at Prenton Park, making a low goal count the most likely scenario in this League Two clash.
| |
Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United
John Pentin; Sports Journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Tottenham and Manchester United have both endured seasons of inconsistency, but one thing that has remained constant is their defensive vulnerabilities. Spurs have been involved in goal-filled matches at home, with all of their last ten Premier League home games seeing both teams score. Their attacking approach under Ange Postecoglou has ensured goals, but their backline remains fragile.
United, meanwhile, have been unpredictable, with their defensive structure frequently exposed. They have conceded at least two goals in three of their last five matches, and their attacking play, though sometimes disjointed, still possesses the quality of Bruno Fernandes and Alejandro Garnacho to create chances. With both teams desperate for points and neither boasting defensive solidity, this fixture has all the makings of a high-scoring encounter.
Best Bet: Both Teams to Score
Under 2.5 goals | |
4/55 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning With promotion pressure mounting, both teams are likely to play cautiously. Sheffield United have made a habit of narrow wins, while Coventry are missing key midfielders. This clash has the feel of a gritty, tactical battle where one goal could settle it, making a low-scoring encounter the most probable outcome. | |
Sunday’s Super Double
For today’s standout double, we’re backing two goal-heavy fixtures with different betting angles:
- Juventus vs Inter Milan – Both Teams to Score
- Parma vs Roma – Roma to Win
This combination brings strong value, with Roma’s superior form and Juventus’ and Inter’s attacking firepower making this a high-probability selection.
Friday’s Super Double | |
2/1 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning Benfica’s defensive improvements and Gil Vicente’s goal drought point to a comfortable win without reply, while Lyon’s attacking sharpness and Strasbourg’s recent habit of conceding late goals suggest a lively affair in France. Combining these two plays offers value from contrasting angles—dominance in one, end-to-end excitement in the other. | |
