Brutal schedule to benefit home teams

Barnet have made a seriously impressive start to the season and it hasn’t gone unnoticed, as they’ve established themselves at the top end of the market to win League Two.

They’ve scored nine goals in four league games so far, and they’ve found the net in the first half in three of those games.

Chesterfield have only kept one clean sheet in their five games so far, in all competitions, and they conceded in both meetings with Barnet last season.

The hosts have allowed their opposition 1.30 xG per game on average in the league, and Barnet are more than good enough going forward to exceed that amount, which would make it very likely that they get on the scoresheet.

Bolton gave everything in their late 3-2 defeat at Sheffield United on Tuesday night, and they may carry some soreness from that outing into their trip to The Den on Saturday.

Millwall have had a wobble of late, losing 3-0 at home to Wrexham on Wednesday to follow a heavy defeat at Southampton.

But class is permanent, this is a team that came 3rd in the division last season hosting a newly-promoted side and they began the season with very impressive 2-0 and 3-0 wins over Bristol City and Norwich.

Alex Neil will be desperate for a win to get them back on track to put a challenging end to the summer transfer window behind them.

Middlesbrough have seen both teams score in all four of their Championship outings so far this season.

They’ve looked mightily impressive in the final third at times, adding some cutting edge, that they were lacking last season, in Will Lankshear - who's joint-top scorer in the division alongside Southampton’s Cyle Larin at this early stage.

QPR have seen BTTS land in 4/5 games so far this term, and they take a preparation advantage into this game having won 2-1 at home to Cardiff on Wednesday, where Middlesbrough had to travel to Burnley (1-1).

There were exactly four goals in each meeting between these sides last season.

Norwich created plenty of chances to score in their 1-0 defeat at Stoke on Tuesday night, and this trip to Bramall Lane could be something of a redemption game following that frustrating evening.

They won the xG battle 1.44-0.58 at Stoke, conceding a deflected shot from range, and Andre Brooks missed a 0.61 xG chance in the first half.

Norwich had scored six goals in two games heading into the midweek slate, where Sheffield United found their shooting boots.

Blades beat Bolton 3-2, scoring two goals or more in back-to-back games, but they’d have been disappointed with their defensive display - conceding twice and allowing a newly-promoted side 1.91 xG on their patch.

The floodgates opened for West Ham in midweek, registering their first Championship win of the season, at the fourth time of asking, with a 4-2 home win against Wolves.

4-2 probably makes it sound more competitive than it was; West Ham were 2-0 and 4-1 up in the game and the scheduling suits them in looking to go back-to-back.

This is a double away game week for Derby, where it's a double home game week for West Ham, and though Derby impressed in winning 2-0 on the South Coast at Portsmouth on Tuesday night, it will have taken a lot out of a squad that is already dealing with injuries to key players.

A win would likely see West Ham break into the play-off spots and put their slow start to the campaign behind them.

This is another team with a double home game week against a side going away for the second time in the space of a few days, and Huddersfield are rightful strong favourites to beat newly-promoted Notts County having started the season well.

Huddersfield are top with 10 points from four league games and they beat newly-relegated Oxford 3-1 on Tuesday night.

Notts County have made an impressive return to League One so far, but this is comfortably their toughest test yet. They’re yet to register more than 0.87 xG in an away league game this term.

Joe Taylor is on fire up top for Huddersfield, leading the league with five goals already and you can get nearly 5/1 on him to score the first goal in this one.

Barnet are the 2nd-top scorers in League Two after four games, scoring nine, and they visit a Chesterfield side who should benefit from playing twice at home this week compared to the visitors’ double away week.

Both sides saw BTTS land in midweek, Barnet had a long trip down to Exeter, and Chesterfield hosted Gillingham - both games ended 1-1.

Barnet have seen BTTS land in 6/6 competitive games this season, while Chesterfield have seen the bet win in each of their last two.

Across the 11-game combined sample of these two sides’ fixtures so far this season, they’ve managed only one clean sheet between them.

Roberto De Zerbi's style of football lends itself towards the goals, and Tottenham should break their goal drought at the City Ground on Saturday.

There were positives to take, in the first half especially, of their 2-0 defeat at home to Newcastle last time out - winning the xG battle 1.12-0.72 in that game despite the loss.

Nottingham Forest have conceded in all three of their 2026/27 games so far, and played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at Liverpool last weekend.

Forest have won four in a row against Spurs in the Premier League and will fancy their chances of continuing that streak, but I don't think they'll keep the back door closed.

Both sides sit on three points after four games and are outside the relegation zone on goal difference.

Both have scored more than one goal per game so far, with Cardiff stepping up well, after winning promotion last season, in the final third in particular.

This bet has won in 6/6 Cardiff games this season and 4/5 of Pompey’s in all competitions.

Pompey lost 2-0 at home to Derby on Tuesday night, but they have a preparation advantage over Cardiff as the Welsh side were beaten 2-1 at QPR on Wednesday night - more travel time and less turnaround time for this match.

Middlesbrough have seen both teams score in all four of their Championship outings so far this season.

They’ve looked mightily impressive in the final third at times, adding some cutting edge, that they were lacking last season, in Will Lankshear - who's joint-top scorer in the division alongside Southampton’s Cyle Larin at this early stage.

QPR have seen BTTS land in 4/5 games so far this term, and they take a preparation advantage into this game having won 2-1 at home to Cardiff on Wednesday, where Middlesbrough had to travel to Burnley (1-1).

There were exactly four goals in each meeting between these sides last season.

Norwich created plenty of chances to score in their 1-0 defeat at Stoke on Tuesday night, and this trip to Bramall Lane could be something of a redemption game following that frustrating evening.

They won the xG battle 1.44-0.58 at Stoke, conceding a deflected shot from range, and Andre Brooks missed a 0.61 xG chance in the first half.

Blades beat Bolton 3-2, scoring two goals or more in back-to-back games, but they’d have been disappointed with their defensive display - conceding twice and allowing a newly-promoted side 1.91 xG on their patch.

Both meetings between these sides ended 2-2 last season.

With BTTS landing after 31 and then 11 minutes, the first meeting between them this term should bring entertainment.

Ajax have scored four or more goals in each of their last three games, while PSV (favourites coming into this) have scored five or more in their last two games.

BTTS has landed in each of the visitors’ last four, and they can’t reach the top of the table this weekend unless they win in Amsterdam.

Ajax have scored two or more goals in all three of their home games so far this season, this could be one of the standout games of the weekend for goals.
