These sides have met twice already this year with BTTS landing in both matches as Stuttgart came away 3-1 and 4-1 winners.

Leverkusen may get a bit more joy here given that Stuttgart have only managed to win two of their opening seven Bundesliga matches, but their games have still been seeing plenty of goals with 23 in total so far (3.29 per game).

Neither of these sides have been good at keeping clean sheets in the early stages of the Bundesliga season. Stuttgart have kept just one shutout across their seven games, conceding an xG of 17.5 - which is the second highest xG against in the Bundesliga behind Augsburg (19.6).

Stuttgart’s early season slump is not that alarming to me, especially when considering that they’re competing in the Champions League this season - which will have had an effect on their domestic performances.

They still have the firepower to get on the scoresheet against this Leverkusen side, who have only kept out two sides in the Bundesliga this term.

Roma are one of only three sides in Serie A who are yet to lose a game, winning six of their nine matches and scoring the second most goals of any side (23), behind league leaders Inter (25).

Udinese are one of only three sides in the Italian top flight who are yet to win a game at home, losing four of their five matches in front of their own fans. 

The main concern for Udinese is that they’ve only managed to score two goals across these games - the joint lowest of any side at home in Serie A this term. 

Roma have won two and drawn two of their four away assignments in Serie A, with those draws coming against Napoli and Como. They’ve scored nine goals across these games as well, which is a scoring power that Udinese simply can’t match.

Udinese have lost six of their last seven matches ahead of this clash, only claiming a point against a Parma side who are struggling towards the bottom of the table as well in a 0-0 draw.

Betis have been really impressive at home in LaLiga this season, winning four of their five matches in front of their own fans.

The only side to beat them at home domestically this season has been Barcelona, who simply outscored Manuel Pellegrini’s side, and Betis still did well to score twice despite dropping down to 10 men in the second half of that clash.

Malaga have really struggled on their return to the Spanish top flight, failing to win any of their 10 matches and sitting rock bottom of the table. They’ve conceded 19 goals across these games, only three sides in the division have a weaker backline than the away side here.

Malaga’s firepower on the road is particularly alarming. They’ve only scored twice across five away matches, leaving them vulnerable against sides like Betis. They’ve struggled against the more established side in LaLiga, losing to nil against both Madrid sides and conceding five to Real Sociedad a few weeks ago.
