Barcelona vs Alaves: Predictions, tips & betting odds

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>It has been a tumultuous week for the Catalans and the in-form visitors could add to their mounting problems when they visit on Saturday evening

Interim coach Sergi Barjuan takes charge of Barcelona on Saturday evening as the Catalans host Alaves an attempt to get back on track in La Liga.

Wednesday night’s defeat to Rayo Vallecano cost Ronald Koeman his job, and the Blaugrana this season have been extremely disappointing sitting ninth in the table after 11 rounds of fixtures.

Alaves for their part head to the Camp Nou following back-to-back wins for the first time since May, although they remain clear outsiders for Saturday’s clash.

Barcelona vs Alaves latest odds

Barca’s 2-1 loss in the Clasico to Real Madrid last weekend was their first home league defeat of the season and the hosts are priced at 2/7 (1.28) with bet365 to claim their fifth win of the campaign in their own stadium.

Alaves for their part recorded a famous win at the Camp Nou in 2016 and can be backed at 9/1 (10.00).

Barcelona vs Alaves first goal scorer

Memphis Depay and Sergio Aguero are both offered at 10/3 (4.33) to open the scoring on Saturday evening while Philippe Coutinho can be backed at 5/1 (6.00) and Gerard Pique at 22/1 (23.00).

For the visitors, top scorer Joselu is available at 10/1 (11.00) to break the deadlock.

Barcelona vs Alaves preview

It is difficult to predict the effect that Ronald Koeman’s sacking will have on the Barcelona players, who looked at their lowest ebb following Wednesday night’s defeat.

Defined by their attacking, attractive style of football of the last decade and a half, Barca are struggling this season to create chances and in their loss to Rayo in midweek they managed just one shot on target.

Indeed, six teams are averaging more shots per game than the Catalans this term which goes a small way to explaining how Barca have failed to score in three of their 10 league matches.

At home however they have netted in all of their league games, and Alaves have also been conceding plenty of shots this season, so Barca should have too much for their opponents although it could be a tighter game than expected. 

Barcelona vs Alaves tips and predictions

Alaves to win with a +1.75 Asian handicap is priced at 3/4 (1.75) and pays out in full if Alaves win, draw or lose by a single goal margin, with half the initial stake refunded if they lose by two goals.

Aston Villa vs West Ham: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>In confident spirits and boasting a strong record against Smith's team, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Hammers to come out on top at Villa Park

West Ham will be on a high when they travel to Villa Park to take on Aston Villa in Sunday’s Premier League clash.

The Hammers head into the weekend sitting pretty in fourth place and having knocked Manchester City out of the EFL Cup on penalties on Wednesday.

Aston Villa vs West Ham latest odds

Having come out on top in both meetings with this opposition last season, they are available at 6/4 (2.50) with bet365 to maintain the feel-good factor with another victory here.

Dean Smith’s men have lost each of their last three consecutive matches in the league but can be backed at 7/4 (2.75) to bounce back with a much-needed win in this one.

Five of the last 10 encounters between this duo have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 5/2 (3.50) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Aston Villa vs West Ham goalscorer

Danny Ings is the 5/1 (6.0) favourite to open the scoring despite hitting the net just once in his last seven matches, while Ollie Watkins is priced at 13/2 (7.50) to double his goal tally for the season with the opener.

Michail Antonio is a strong 11/2 (6.50) first goalscorer bet after striking in seven of his 10 appearances this campaign, with Jarrod Bowen priced at 15/2 (8.50) following goals in two of his last five matches.

Aston Villa vs West Ham preview

Having overcome EFL Cup specialists Manchester City despite making wholesale changes, David Moyes’ full strength team will be confident of maintaining their impressive form against a home side lacking in confidence following recent results.

Indeed, the guests have won seven and lost none of their last nine away games in all competitions, taking 10 of their 17 points in the league so far this season from their four matches on the road.

Aston Villa vs West Ham predictions

With West Ham boasting eight clean sheets in 11 matches and having failed to score only twice in 17 fixtures stretching back to last season, they look well worth those 6/4 (2.50) odds to overcome a Villa team they have lost against just once in the last 10 encounters.

Malmo vs Chelsea: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having failed to even register a goal in this season's Champions League, Al Hain-Cole expects another difficult 90 minutes for Tomasson's men

Malmo will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome Chelsea to the Eleda Stadion for Tuesday’s Champions League clash.

Jon Dahl Tomasson’s men are rock bottom of Group H without a point to their name after three games, having slumped to a 4-0 defeat in the reverse encounter at Stamford Bridge last time out.

Malmo vs Chelsea latest odds

Indeed, Malmo are 16/1 (17.0) outsiders with bet365 to secure their first group-stage victory in six years when they take on the reigning European champions, and priced at 6/1 (7.0) to earn even a single point.

Chelsea were beaten 1-0 by Juventus in their first away game in this season’s competition but are clear 1/6 (1.17) favourites to collect all three points in this one.

Malmo vs Chelsea first goalscorer

Kai Havertz is the 15/4 (4.75) favourite to open the scoring in the absence of the injured Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner, although Jorginho could prove the best bet at 13/2 (7.50) considering he struck twice from the spot in the reverse encounter.

Antonio Colak is the home team’s 14/1 (15.0) front runner to break the deadlock as he tops their scoring charts with 21 goals in all competitions, while Veljko Birmancevic can be backed at 18/1 (19.0) following goals in three of his last five games.

Malmo vs Chelsea preview

It is fair to say that Malmo have looked out of their depth during their first group-stage appearance since 2015, having lost three out of three matches so far – conceding 11 goals while failing to score themselves.

It is hard to see them having much to cheer about this time out against Thomas Tuchel’s team, which has conceded just six times in 15 games so far this campaign and five goals in their last 16 Champions League fixtures.

Malmo vs Chelsea tips & predictions

In fact, odds of 5/6 (1.83) seem generous on Chelsea winning to nil for their fifth Champions League game in six against a Malmo team that has lost three from three without getting on target.

Dynamo Kyiv vs Barcelona: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Catalans are enduring an extremely difficult period and there should be plenty of interest in backing a tight game when they visit Kyiv

Barcelona travel to Ukraine to face Dynamo Kyiv on matchday four of the Champions League with the Liga side knowing defeat could severely jeopardise their qualification for the knockout stages.

The Blaugrana have just three points from their opening three matches in Group E and, with games against Benfica and Bayern Munich still to come, Barca can ill afford to drop points on Tuesday evening. 

Dynamo Kyiv vs Barcelona latest odds

The Catalans scraped a 1-0 win when the sides met at Camp Nou two weeks ago but since then they have lost domestically to Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano before drawing with struggling Alaves on Saturday night.

The defeat to Rayo cost Ronald Koeman his job and, with Sergi Barjuan in interim charge of the side, Barcelona can be backed at 4/6 (1.65) with bet365 to win on Tuesday.

Dynamo Kyiv, meanwhile, are available at 4/1 (5.00) with the draw at 29/10 (3.90). 

Dynamo Kyiv vs Barcelona first goalscorer 

Memphis Depay opened the scoring for Barcelona in their last game at the weekend and the Dutchman can be backed at 15/4 (4.75) to open the scoring once more ahead of Luuk De Jong who is offered at 9/2 (5.50).

Elsewhere Philippe Coutinho is available at 6/1 (7.00) while the shortest-priced Dynamo player is Viktor Tsyganov at 7/1 (8.00).

Dynamo Kyiv vs Barcelona preview

Out of form, with vital players missing and a sense of limbo hanging over the club until the appointment of a permanent coach, Barca head to Ukraine in poor shape.

One of the startling things about the team this term is how few shots on target they have managed in the Champions League with the Catalans troubling the opposing goalkeeper just four times over three matches.

With Sergio Aguero unavailable and Ansu Fati struggling over the last few days with a knee problem Barca’s attacking threat is further diminished and there is every chance that they could be in for another frustrating evening in Ukraine. 

Dynamo Kyiv vs Barcelona tips & predictions

Under 2.5 goals in the game looks like an interesting option at 11/10 (2.10) while backing Barca to net under 1.5 goals at the same also looks like an excellent angle.

Atalanta vs Manchester United: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having staged a late comeback to beat La Dea 3-2 at Old Trafford, Al Hain-Cole expects Solskjaer's men to provide more late drama in Bergamo

Manchester United will be aiming to take a major step towards qualification when they travel to Bergamo to take on Atalanta for Tuesday’s Champions League clash.

The Red Devils are two points clear at the top of Group F, having secured a late 3-2 victory over this opposition at Old Trafford last time out.

Atalanta vs Manchester United latest odds

Despite losing five of their last seven away games in this competition, Man Utd are slight 11/8 (2.38) favourites with bet365 to open up a five-point gap over the Italians by coming out on top here.

Gian Piero Gasperini’s men have won just one of their last six Champions League fixtures at the Gewiss Stadium but Atalanta can be backed at 13/8 (2.63) to leapfrog the visitors with a victory.

The hosts’ last two matches in front of their own fans have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 29/10 (3.90) on them being held to yet another stalemate in this one.

Atalanta vs Manchester United first goalscorer

Cristiano Ronaldo is the 15/4 (4.75) favourite to break the deadlock after scoring in all three group games so far, while Edinson Cavani is priced at 11/2 (6.50) following his first goal of the campaign in Saturday’s 3-0 victory over Tottenham.

Duvan Zapata looks a strong 4/1 (5.00) first goalscorer bet after goals in three of his last five appearances, although Josip Ilicic could be even better value at 13/2 (7.50) considering he has scored six times in his last seven games for club and country.

Atalanta vs Manchester United preview

Late goals have been a feature of United’s Champions League campaign so far, having conceded in the final moments of their shock opening defeat against Young Boys before grabbing winners in the final 10 minutes of comeback victories over Villarreal and Atalanta.

There could well be more of the same against La Dea, who have seen goals scored from the 81st minute onwards in each of their last six fixtures.

Atalanta vs Manchester United tips & predictions

With Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team seeing goalmouth action after the 77th minute in eight of their last 11 games, odds of 5/6 (1.83) seem generous on them producing more late drama against Atalanta.

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With both sides in scintillating scoring form there should be plenty of interest in backing the goals to flow when they meet on Wednesday night

Liverpool welcome Atletico Madrid to Anfield on Wednesday on matchday four of the Champions League with Jurgen Klopp’s side looking for another win against the Liga champions.

Two weeks ago, these sides played out a thrilling match in the Spanish capital which ended in a 3-2 victory for the six-time European champions and another exciting encounter could be on the cards on Merseyside.

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid latest odds

The hosts are clear favourites to claim three more points and cement their place at the top of Group E, with bet365 offering Liverpool at 3/5 (1.60).

Atletico, meanwhile, are available at 9/2 (5.50) to record their second away win of the competition while the draw can be backed at 3/1 (4.00). 

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid first goalscorer 

Mohamed Salah broke the deadlock after just eight minutes when these sides met in Madrid and the Egyptian can be backed at 3/1 (4.00) to do so once more on Wednesday evening.

Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane can all be backed at 11/2 (6.50) while Luis Suarez is offered at 7/1 (8.00) to score first on his return to Anfield.

Antoine Griezmann is suspended following his red card two weeks ago which should guarantee a starting berth for Joao Felix and the young Portuguese forward is priced at 11/1 (12.00).

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid preview

Expectations are high that these two teams can serve up another entertaining encounter and their respective scoring records are encouraging.

Liverpool have netted in every competitive game they have played over the last 10 months, while Atletico have scored at least twice in each of their last six matches.

Neither side have been as defensively solid as their managers would have liked, with Liverpool keeping just two clean sheets in six home games this term in all competitions, and Atletico conceding in every away game they have contested.

Those statistics mean another open match looks on the cards with goals at both ends looking likely.

Liverpool vs Atletico Madrid tips & predictions

Both teams to score seems a solid selection at 3/4 (1.75) while over 2.5 goals is priced at 8/11 (1.73).

Combining these two options sees the odds rise to a healthy looking 11/10 (2.10).

Southampton vs Aston Villa: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>In strong form at St Mary's, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Saints to extend their dominant record against Smith's men with a win on Friday

Aston Villa will be desperate for victory when they travel to St Mary’s to take on Southampton in Friday’s Premier League clash.

Dean Smith has seen his job come under some scrutiny after a run of four consecutive league defeats, his worst spell since early 2020.

Southampton vs Aston Villa latest odds

However, Aston Villa can be backed at 13/5 (3.60) with bet365 to ease the pressure with a much-needed three points on the south coast.

Southampton have taken seven points from the last available nine and are 21/20 (2.05) favourites to compound the visitors’ misery by coming out on top once again.

Just one of the last eight encounters between this duo has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 5/2 (3.50) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Southampton vs Aston Villa first goalscorer

Che Adams is the hosts’ 11/2 (6.50) favourite to open the scoring after hitting the net in each of the last two games, while Armando Broja can be backed at 7/1 (8.0) following goals in his last two appearances.

With Danny Ings unavailable to face his former club due to injury, Ollie Watkins is the away side’s best first goalscorer option at 15/2 (8.50) after getting on target in two of the last four league fixtures and Leon Bailey is a 10/1 (11.0) outside bet.

Southampton vs Aston Villa preview

Although they go into this clash just a single point behind their opponents in the league, the Villans have struggled to hold their own in recent encounters – winning just once in 10 and losing six of the most recent eight.

It is hard to see them improving on that record on current form, having lost four consecutive matches and taken just three points from the last available 15 on the road.

Southampton vs Aston Villa tips & predictions

With Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men in confident spirits and having lost just twice in 10 league games in their own backyard, those 21/20 (2.05) odds seem solid on Southampton getting the better of a struggling Villa team yet again.

Both teams to score accumulator predictions this weekend

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>We had to southern Spain, Germany, England, as well as Italy, in search of more goals across Europe in this week's both teams to score accumulator

Goal has put together a four-fold accumulator on both teams to score across the European leagues this weekend.

Real Betis vs Sevilla – Both teams to score at 4/5 (1.80) with bet365 

The Seville derby is one of the fiercest rivalries in Europe, yet despite the enormous pressure on both sides this fixture generally provides terrific entertainment.

Played at breakneck speed in front of a packed house this game is often wild, open and keenly contested.

Both teams to score has paid out in six of the last nine derbies and looks an obvious selection. 

Juventus vs Fiorentina – Both teams to score 3/4 (1.75) with bet365

Fiorentina’s strong start to the season has tailed off a little in recent weeks but the Viola remain an exciting attacking outfit.

Juventus have been wildly unpredictable this season and have lost each of their last two matches but have found the back of the net in their last 13 competitive fixtures and should be able to do so once more on Saturday. 

Leeds United vs Leicester City – Both teams to score at 4/7 (1.57) with bet365

Leicester’s only clean sheet since August came in a Carabao Cup game at Millwall six weeks ago and the Foxes have been conceding with alarming regularity.

Fortunately for them, however, they are proving pretty handy in the final third, scoring in 14 of their 17 fixtures this season.

Leeds, for their part, can generally be relied upon to score in front of their own fans, while both teams to score has paid out in seven of the last 11 games at Elland Road.

Bayern Munich vs Freiburg – Both teams to score at 7/10 (1.70) with be365

Freiburg are the surprise package of the Bundesliga this season and have scored in 10 of their 12 competitive fixtures.

Christian Streich’s side are unbeaten this term and have beaten both Champions League sides they have faced so far, overcoming Borussia Dortmund 2-1 and Wolfsburg 2-0.

Beating the champions looks unlikely but the visitors will certainly feel they can score at the Allianz Arena this weekend.

Manchester United vs Manchester City: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Solskjaer's men still looking fragile in defence, Al Hain-Cole expects the visitors to silence Old Trafford yet again in a high-scoring victory

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be hoping to continue his rehabilitation as Manchester United manager in Saturday’s Premier League derby against Manchester City.

Reportedly given three matches to save his job following the humiliating 5-0 home defeat against Liverpool, the Norwegian coach has followed up a comfortable 3-0 win over Tottenham with a useful 2-2 draw away to Atalanta.

Manchester United vs Manchester City latest odds

However, Man Utd are 15/4 (4.75) outsiders with bet365 to really disprove the doubters by coming out on top against their rivals at Old Trafford.

Man City fell to a shock 2-0 home defeat against Crystal Palace last weekend but are 7/10 (1.70) favourites to bounce straight back with a victory on enemy territory.

Just one of the last 11 encounters between this duo has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 3/1 (4.0) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Manchester United vs Manchester City first goalscorer

Cristiano Ronaldo is the 11/2 (6.50) favourite to open the scoring after grabbing four goals in his last four appearances, with Edinson Cavani a longer 8/1 (9.0) shot despite joining him on the scoresheet against Spurs.

Gabriel Jesus, Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden are all joint 13/2 (7.50) City favourites to break the deadlock, with the latter perhaps the best value at that price after five goals in his last nine league matches.

Manchester United vs Manchester City preview

Ater looking solid in a new formation against an admittedly lacklustre Tottenham side, the Red Devils were back to their fragile selves in the 2-2 draw in Bergamo.

Having now conceded 13 goals in their last five fixtures, it is very difficult to see them putting in the kind of robust derby displays that have frustrated Pep Guardiola’s men and earned some impressive results in recent years.

Manchester United vs Manchester City tips & predictions

Instead, the visitors look more likely to follow in Liverpool’s footsteps by cruelly exposing United’s weaknesses in midfield and defence at Old Trafford, with odds of 11/8 (2.38) offering tempting value on Man City taking all three points in a match featuring over 2.5 goals.

Celta Vigo vs Barcelona: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With neither side in strong scoring form there should be plenty of interest in opposing an early goal when the sides meet this weekend in Galicia

Barcelona travel to the Estadio Balaidos on Saturday afternoon to face Celta Vigo with the Blaugrana desperate to improve their form in La Liga.

Barca have won just two of their last eight league matches and away from home they are yet to register a win, recording two draws and two defeats.

Celta, meanwhile, are also in poor form having lost five of their six home matches this term but the Galicians often make life tough for the Catalans when they welcome them to Vigo.

Celta Vigo vs Barcelona latest odds

Barcelona have won just one of their last five away games against Celta in all competitions but remain favourites at 11/10 (2.10) with bet365.

Celta, meanwhile, can be backed at 23/10 (3.30) to claim what would be their fourth home league win against Barca since 2015.

The draw is on offer at 13/5 (3.60). 

Celta Vigo vs Barcelona first goalscorer

Ansu Fati scored the only goal of the game on Tuesday night as Barca racked up a vital 1-0 Champions League win at Dynamo Kyiv and the teenager can be backed at 6/1 (7.00) to open the scoring once more this weekend.

Memphis Depay leads the market at 9/2 (5.50) while Celta’s main goal threat will be Iago Aspas who is priced at 6/1 (7.00) and the talismanic forward has an excellent record against Barca, scoring seven times in games versus the Blaugrana. 

Celta Vigo vs Barcelona preview

Last term these were two of La Liga’s most prolific sides but this season the goals have dried up for both teams.

Barca’s lack of incisiveness in the final third can of course be in large part attributed to the departures of both Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann but in Celta’s case the squad is almost exactly the same as the one which finished the previous campaign in such strong fashion.

Eduardo Coudet’s side have failed to score in four of their last five matches and the absence of top scorer Santi Mina on Saturday could be keenly felt.

Barca, for their part, have badly struggled in the final third, netting just two goals in the four matches on the road this season and opposing a high-scoring encounter looks like an obvious selection.

Celta Vigo vs Barcelona tips & predictions

Under 2.5 goals is priced at 11/10 (2.10) but opposing an early goal could be a better angle.

No goal before 27 minutes is offered at 5/6 (1.83) and seems like a terrific option.

Only two of Celta’s 12 matches this season have seen goals before 27 minutes, while Barca have scored before this mark only once in their last eight games.
