This will be a massive test for Feyenoord as they try to prise the Eredivisie title away from PSV, who have been crowned champions in each of the last two seasons.
Feyenoord have avoided defeat in all of their nine games in the Eredivisie this term, winning seven of them and scoring more goals than any other side in the division (31 - 3.44 per game).
They’ve also won all five of their away matches, netting 20 goals in the process. Their preparation for this potential six pointer in the title race couldn’t be better, but PSV will be just as motivated to ensure they don’t lose more ground in the fight for the Eredivisie title.
PSV have scored 13 goals across their four games in the Eredivisie this term, but have only managed to keep a clean sheet in one of these matches. In fact, PSV have only kept one shutout all season - most recently conceding twice and seeing BTTS against a newly promoted Den Haag side.
Inter look on course to mount another title challenge after winning the league with ease last season, and this looks like a winnable game at home against a Fiorentina side who have lost their last two matches.
Fiorentina have been in turmoil ever since they reached the Conference League final a few seasons ago. They almost got relegated after a really poor start to the season last year and have only managed to win one of their opening seven matches this term, losing five of those games.
Inter have won six of their opening seven matches, with the exception of a 2-2 draw on the road against Roma - who also look like challenging for the Scudetto this season. Inter have won all four of their games at home in Serie A this term, scoring 15 goals in the process.
They’ve beaten Fiorentina in each of the last three head to head meetings as the home side, coinciding with Fiorentina’s downturn as a club over the last few years.
Brighton have been the most exciting team to watch in the Premier League so far this season, scoring more goals than any other side in the division across their opening seven matches (23 - 3.29 per game).
Fabian Hurzeler’s side have seen 3+ goals in five of these games, covering this line on their own on four of those occasions. They also saw 3+ goals in their EFL Cup victory over United, as well as their opening game of the Conference League - beating Kauno 4-0.
Liverpool have been playing some really chaotic, but entertaining, football under Iraola so far. They’ve had to come from behind in each of their last two matches, seeing 3+ goals in each of their last four matches.
Liverpool have conceded 2+ goals in three of these matches, so there should be opportunities for Brighton to extend their impressive scoring record at the start of this season.
Hoffenheim covered this line on their own on Thursday, beating a rotated Lyon side 3-0 with an xG of 2.09 from 22 shots.
They’ve seen 3+ goals in each of their last five matches - and in every single Bundesliga game this term. Overall, Hoffenheim have seen 25 goals across their six games in the German top flight (4.16 per game).
Leverkusen come into this game in excellent form having won each of their last five matches, seeing 3+ goals in three of these matches. Their three away matches in the Bundesliga have produced 16 goals (5.33 per game), 64% of their total goals have come on the road.
This tends to be an entertaining fixture too, nine of the last ten head to head meetings between the sides have seen 3+ goals.
If you’re touching United at odds on favourites, you’re a maniac.
United haven’t kept a single clean sheet this season and were torn apart by Como in midweek.
Bournemouth have only failed to score once so far in the league and despite being thumped by Chelsea, they actually produced the same xG as The Blues in that game.
This game jumped out at me right away. These two rank second and third for average xG in the Premier League and this is a historically goal laden game, with 10 of the last 11 meetings producing over 2.5 goals.
Brighton have been incredible. 23 goals scored, the most in the league and 15 without reply in their last 4 and the likes of Kostoulas & Gross playing out of their skin.
Liverpool’s last four in all comps have produced 22 goals with The Reds scoring 4 in midweek.
