Como’s games have been increasingly high-scoring this season, producing an average of 2.8 goals per game.

This selection has been a winner in each of their last 14 games, and coming up against Napoli whose’ matches tend to be exciting affairs, it would be a surprise if we didn’t see at least a couple of goals here.

Napoli’s games average 2.4 goals scored this season. Each of their last 7 matches have seen 2 or more goals, with both teams scoring in all of their last 5. Across the entire season, this selection has been a winner in 11 of their 14 matches on the road, where their defence has been evidently impaired.

The reverse fixture between these sides was the only time they’ve met in recent history, Napoli ran out 3-1 winners on that occasion.

A 15-game unbeaten streak in La Liga has Athletic Bilbao sitting comfortably in 4th, flying under the radar as potential outsiders for the league title – as it stands, they are just 6 points off of league-leaders Barcelona.

One of the key reasons for their success in this campaign has been their results in front of their home support. At the San Mames Stadium, Athletic Bilbao boast the exceptional record of 7 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss from their 12 games so far. They are averaging 2.08 points per game, and sit 3rd in the league based on home form, behind both Madrid clubs.

Meanwhile, Valladolid find themselves anchored to the bottom of the league, having lost 11 of their 12 away games. Their form could not be any worse, with the unwanted record of 5 straight losses in La Liga. Worryingly, they have only managed 2 goals in that time, whilst conceding 15.

Bayern Munich head into this clash fresh off a dramatic last-minute Champions League qualification secured by Alphonso Davies’ late heroics. Now, their focus shifts back to domestic dominance as they look to reclaim their Bundesliga title. However, defensive frailties have emerged, offering third-placed Eintracht Frankfurt a prime opportunity to exploit as they push for their best league finish since the 1992/93 season.

Bayern boast one of the most prolific attacks in Europe, averaging 2.95 goals per game in the league. They have found the net in 16 of 17 home matches this season, with the only exception being a DFB-Pokal defeat to Leverkusen, where an absent Harry Kane and Manuel Neuer’s 17th-minute red card left them at a major disadvantage.

In the Bundesliga, Bayern have been near-flawless at the Allianz Arena, scoring in 14 consecutive home league games since last failing to do so in March last year. However, despite having the best defensive record in the Bundesliga, vulnerabilities have surfaced in recent weeks. They have conceded in 7 of their last 9 home matches in all competitions, leaving them exposed to Frankfurt’s attacking firepower.

Frankfurt arrive in red-hot form, unbeaten in their last 7 Bundesliga matches, and have solidified themselves as the league’s joint second-best attacking force, with an average of 2.23 goals per game. While their goal tally drops slightly away from home, they have still scored in 9 of their 11 Bundesliga road trips.

Defensively, Frankfurt struggle to shut out opposition away from home, managing just 2 clean sheets all season – both coming against the 2 lowest-scoring home sides in the league. Against a Bayern side that rarely fails to score at home, keeping a clean sheet seems highly unlikely.

The reverse fixture ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw, and each of the last 5 encounters between these sides have seen both teams find the net.

Cagliari have struggled in front of goal this season, averaging just 1.04 goals per game in Serie A. On just 7 occasions have Cagliari found the back of the net more than once, despite playing 25 games in the league.

Most recently, they created just 0.2xG against Atalanta, despite La Dea’s defensive vulnerabilities, which implies they could struggle to break down Juventus who have been solid at the back.

Thiago Motta’s men have conceded 1 goal or less in 19 of their 25 league games to date. Their average of 0.84 goals conceded per match is bettered only by league-leaders Napoli, this is supported by their xGA record which is the second-best in Serie A.

This selection has been a winner in 7 of the last 8 clashes between these sides and from what we’ve seen so far this season, we’re unlikely to see an anomaly here.

Real Sociedad were clinical midweek, they beat Midtjylland 5-2 in the Europa League to book their spot in the next round. In total, they amassed 22 shots with 10 on target, which amounted to 4.6 xG. Luka Sucic was the standout performer, bagging a brace on the night.

Sociedad have generally looked a lot more confident at the Anoeta Stadium, reflected in their average of 1.42 points per game at home, compared to 1.17 on the road. Goals have also been more common at home, with the Basque side averaging 2.1 goals per game at home, compared to 1.5 away.

Leganes have been less free-flowing in their approach, but have seen over 1.5 goals land in 8 of their 12 away games this campaign. This selection has also landed in each of the last 7 head-to-head meetings between these sides.
