This is a five-fold Match Result and Over 2.5 Goals accumulator, with fixtures coming from the Serie A, Liga NOS, La Liga and the FA Cup.
Bottom of the table Salernitana takes on eight-placed AS Roma in tonight’s Serie A action.
The home side are on a poor run of form, as following their 1-0 win over Verona on 30th December, they have gone on a four-game losing streak, having suffered 6-1 and 2-1 defeats to Juventus, as well as being beaten 2-1 in back-to-back games by Napoli and Genoa.
Daniele De Rossi managed to win his first game in charge of Roma last time out via a 2-1 scoreline against Hellas Verona thanks to goals by Romelu Lukaku and Lorenzo Pellegrini. Jose Mourinho’s last four matches in charge had seen Roma suffer 3-1 and 1-0 defeats to AC Milan and Lazio after a 1-1 draw with Atalanta and a 2-1 home win over Cremonese in the Coppa Italia.
Second-place Benfica travels to 14th-place Estrela in Liga NOS.
Estrela are without a win in their last five matches, having suffered 3-0 and 4-1 defeats to Vitoria Guimaraes and Arouca while drawing 1-1 with both Gil Vicente and Vizela, as well as 0-0 away at Farense.
Benfica are on a five-match winning run, having beaten Sporting Braga 1-0, Famalicao 3-0, Arouca 3-0, Rio Ave 4-1 and Boavista, culminating in them closing the gap to top of the table Sporting Lisbon to just one point.
League leaders Sporting Lisbon hosts 13th-place Casa Pia José Alvalade Stadium, with Ruben Amorim’s men expected to earn a comfortable victory.
Sporting are in perfect form, having won all of their last five matches, beating the likes of Vizela 5-2, Chaves 3-0, Estoril 5-1, Portimonense 2-1 and Porto 2-0. During this run of results, ex-Coventry City striker Viktor Gyokeres has scored four times.
Casa Pia have won two of their last five games, having beaten Chaves 3-1 and Moreirense 4-1 on either side of a 3-1 defeat to Sporting Braga. Since then, the visitors have suffered 2-0 and 3-1 defeats at the hands of Famalicao and Farense.
Getafe and Granada go head-to-head at Coliseum Alfonso Pérez in a battle between 10th and 19th in the standings.
The home side have only managed one win in their last five games, as following their dramatic 3-3 draw with Atletico Madrid, they suffered a 2-0 loss to Rayo Vallecano where Juanmi Latasa, Mason Greenwood and Damian Suarez were all sent off. Since then, they have beaten Espanyol 1-0 and been beaten 3-1 and 3-2 in back-to-back games with Sevilla and Osasuna.
Granada could be the ideal opposition though, having only accumulated three points from their last five games, as following 1-0 and 3-0 losses to Celta Vigo and Sevilla, they beat Cadiz 2-0 before being beaten 1-0 by both Real Betis and Atletico Madrid.
In the FA Cup, Blackburn Rovers will be looking to avoid a giant-killing when they face off against League Two outfit Wrexham.
Jon Dahl Tomasson’s men are in suspect form, having lost 3-2 and 4-1 to Hull City and West Brom on either side of a 2-2 draw with Rotherham and a 5-2 victory over Cambridge United. Last time out, Rovers were held to a 1-1 draw by Huddersfield Town at Ewood Park.
Wrexham have won three of their last five games, as following a 3-1 loss to Walsall at the BESCOT Stadium on 29th December, Phil Parkinson’s men managed to beat Barrow 4-1, Shrewsbury Town 1-0 and AFC Wimbledon 2-0 before being narrowly defeated 1-0 away at Newport County following an 18th-minute red card for Will Boyle.
Despite their loss on Monday to West Ham United, we still expect Newcastle United to record a victory over a Crystal Palace side who are struggling to gain momentum this season. Cr...
