Betis played out a 7 goal thriller at the weekend and produced one of the best games of matchday 1 with a 3-2 away win in Lille where they produced a hefty 1.92 xG.

Troy Parrott appears to be getting his starts in Europe atm. The irishman scored in France and netted 4 times over the international break.

Porto struggled against City, but that’s to be expected.

Their last four league games have seen BTTS land and every game they’ve played this season has had at least two goals.

They’ve scored 20 times in 8 domestic games with an average xG of 1.84.

Roma drew 1-1 with Galatasaray in their first Champions League matches, with the sides sharing 2.44 xG.

Domestically, 4 of their 6 games have had 3 or more goals. Largely thanks to Donyell Malen, who has scored 20 times in 24 games for the Italians. 

This selection landed in Madrid’s opening European match as they beat Inter 2-1. They shipped a huge 2.48 xG that game, so it’s clear they can be got at.

In La Liga, their games have averaged 3.38 goals and six of eight have had 3+, with five of them seeing both teams score.

These sides met last year in that incredible 6 goal thriller in Paris which saw PSG win 4-2.

The Parisians netted 6 on matchday 1, but still conceded to minnows Slovan Bratislava who actually managed 0.98 xG and 4 shots on target.

City have scored 11 in their last 3 and their Premier League games have averaged 3.50 goals.

They’ve also conceded in half of their league games, including shipping 3 at home to Sunderland.

They did keep Porto at bay but PSG are a big step up in quality, especially in attack, and they will get on the scoresheet in Manchester.
