No Lens player has registered more goal contributions this season than Florian Thauvin (17).

Thauvin recorded a goal and an assist in his most recent appearance against Lyon.

Thauvin has registered five goal contributions across his last five appearances for Lens across all competitions.

Thauvin created four chances in the most recent meeting between the sides.

Only Juma Bah (7) has picked up more yellow cards for Nice in Ligue 1 this season than Charles Vanhoutte (6).

Charles Vanhoutte has picked up a further caution across his three starts in the Coupe De France this season. 

Vanhoutte committed two fouls inside just 45 minutes of action when these sides first clashed this season. 

Vanhoutte will have to contest duels against Bulatovic (2.39 fouls won per 90) and Haidara (0.70 fouls won per 90)

Nice have failed to win any of their last four matches ahead of this final, and have an important relegation play-off to come on Tuesday which is likely to take priority. 

Lens have only lost one of their last seven matches, which was against PSG. 

Lens have scored at least two goals in every round of the Coupe De France so far.

Elye Wahi has shown promise across limited minutes in Ligue 1 this season, netting five goals across his 11 appearances from 15 shots on target (1.46 per 90).

Wahi has scored three goals across his last five starts for Nice, including netting a brace against Strasbourg in the semi-finals of the competition. 

Wahi has registered four shots on target across his two starts in the Coupe De France this season (1.61 per 90) from a wider shot output of seven attempts (2.83 per 90).

Nice have already said they will not treat this game as a priority with relegation playoff looming on Tuesday.

Nice have failed to win in their last 4 matches.

Lens have won 2 of their last 3 and looked very good even in a 2-0 loss against PSG. This match means more to them.

These teams rate 2nd and 4th for corners in Ligue 1 this season (Nice 10.79, Lens 10.35)

65% of Nice matches this term have produced at least 9 corners.

Last match between these sides saw 15 corners.

Udol ranks 5th among all Lens players for shots this season, with 1.41 per 90.

Has had at least 1 shot in 11 of last 15 matches, and all of his last 3.

Sangare is 4th among Lens players this season with 53 shots. Has 2.05 shots per 90.

2+ shots in 8 of his last 9 games.

Has had at 2+ shots in both previous matches with Nice this season. Had 3 when they met at the start of the month.

Switching focus to Sweden, where the Allsvenskan is reaching matchday nine.

These two sit 12th and 13th, having both had poor starts to the season. It’ll be a bit of a scrap, but I’d expect at least a couple of goals, with a win being important for both sides despite the early stage of the campaign.

Kalmar games have averaged 2.50 goals, with five of their eight seeing two or more scored.

Degefors game have averaged 2.63 goals, with seven of their eight seeing this selection land.

Both sides are let down slightly in this market by the start to the season. Degefors have seen over 1.5 land in each of their last five, and Kalmar have seen it in four of their last five.

Celtic will be riding high after securing the Scottish Premier League title with a dramatic 3-1 final day win over Hearts.

That made it six straight games where The Hoops have seen three or more match goals. It was also their eight successive win.

Celtic have been entertaining throughout the season, with an average of 3.00 goals per match and 68% seeing three or more.

Dunfermline average 2.56, which isn’t huge but it is the highest of any side in the Championship.

They may well nick a goal here, Celtic aren’t convincing in defence but I think there’s every side that Celtic go and sweep The Pars aside and send Martin O’Neill off into the sunset with another trophy.

Another cup final, this time it’s the DFB Pokal. Bayern should win this, given their dominance domestically this season.

They’ve scored a truly outrageous 122 goals, and their games have averaged 4.65 goals with 65% seeing BTTS which shows despite their dominance, they do leave themselves open at te back.

There is no side better suited in the league to take advantage of that than Stuttgart. They finished as the second top scorers behind Bayern and netted an average of 2.1 goals per match and 62% of their games saw this selection land.

This selection has landed in three of the last four head-to-heads, including the last match which was a 4-2 home victory for Bayern.

Huge clash on the final day in La Liga with Girona occupying the final relegation place and Elche sitting just two points above them. Girona need a win, and if they score, Elche have to respond or they could be going down - it’s an excellent bet in terms of the situation they find themselves in.

Elche boast the second highest BTTS strike rate in La Liga at a massive 70%, which rises to an incredible 83% when playing away from home.

Girona matches have landed this selection in 59% of their fixtures this season.

RSL have started the season excellently and sit fifth in the Western Conference. They are a side who perform better at home, often down to their altitude advantage - that being said, they’ve netted in four out of five away matches so far.

Minnesota have had a faltering start to the season, and have struggled defensively of late; having failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last six matches.

Zavier Gozo and Sergi Solans have started the season very well for the visitors. The two young forwards have racked up 12 goals between them already.

Adilson Malanda committed 20 fouls across his 20 starts in the Championship during the regular season (0.98 per 90) and will have an important role to play here for Middlesbrough with Hull mainly looking to play in moments of transition.

Middlesbrough exceeded their foul average in both head to head meetings with Hull this season, committing 11 fouls in both games - a significant increase on the 9.30 fouls committed per game they averaged across the Championship season as a whole.

I think quite a lot of these fouls will be concentrated in the Boro backline with Malanda being a prime candidate to commit a foul against the expected front three of Hull:

Kyle Joseph (1.29 fouls won per 90)
Liam Millar (1.27 fouls won per 90)
Oli McBurnie (1.21 fouls won per 90).

Hull have drawn at least 10 fouls from their opponents in each of their last six Championship matches, drawing 15+ fouls in two of these games. They’ll be aiming to frustrate a Boro side who boasted the highest average possession numbers in the Championship this term (59.5%), and limited Hull to just 29% of the ball when the sides last faced.

I can see Malanda getting involved in scraps with McBurnie and the other forwards, who will try to win fouls as often as they can to relieve pressure and get Hull opportunities from set pieces. Malanda could also sin in these environments, even attacking set pieces offer a chance for Malanda to be a bit heavy handed as he looks to force an opportunity.

I’ve managed to get this boosted from 1.44 to 2.0 for the Championship Play-Off Final, it’s some boost and you won’t find this price elsewhere.

We've been on a good run with these team boosts in recent weeks, we had a winner in Celtic v Hearts @ 4.50, and came just one corner away from another winning in Chelsea v Tottenham.

I'm going again for the Championship Play-Off Final, here's why I'm backing this boost 👇

Goals

The initial league meeting between these sides produced five goals as Boro ran out 4-1 winners over Hull. 

Boro have seen 2+ goals in three of their last five matches across all competitions.

Hull scored twice away from home against Millwall to book their spot in the playoff final. 

Cards 

This game takes place in a very unique context, Southampton were kicked out of the playoffs to make room for Boro following the ‘spygate’ drama and that context is likely to leak onto the field.

No side picked up more cards during the regular season of the Championship than Hull (115) - they picked up four cards in the second leg of their play-off semi final against Millwall. 

Boro ranked a lot lower for yellow cards (74), but notably saw a rise in their foul numbers in both head to head meetings with Hull.

The referee for this game is Jarred Gillet who is averaging 3.59 cards per game in the Premier League this term, the one game he officiated in the Championship this season saw him hand out 6 yellow cards.

Corners 

No side won more corners than Boro in the regular championship season (314 - 6.83 per game).

Hull are not as prolific when it comes to winning corners, but still boast a decent average of 4.50 corners per game in the Championship this term.

Hull registered eight corners in their second leg victory over Millwall, showing how their corner count can rise where the context demands. 

Hull saw 10+ match corners in 63% of their Championship matches during the regular season. 

Whittaker has had 100 shots this season for ‘Boro, at a rate of 3.36 per 90. He’s netted 14 league goals in the process which is excellent, and he’s always looking to cut in and get strikes off with his left foot.

Whittaker has averaged 1.07 shots on target per 90 minutes this season and has had seven shots on target in his last seven outings.

Finals like this can be decided on individual brilliance and Whittaker is one of the players out there who has the ability to make something happen.

He’s had five shots and two on target against Hull this season and netted in the away match against them.

Morris has drawn a ridiculous 94 fouls this season, an average of 2.56 per 90 minutes and is comfortably the most fouled player in the Middlesbrough team.

Again, expecting ‘Boro to have plenty of the ball and Hull will be on the back foot. They’re not shy of a physical battle, they committed 11 and 17 fouls in the two league meetings with Middlesbrough this season.

Matt Crooks and Regan Slater average over 3.00 fouls per 90 between them in the centre of the park for Hull, with Crooks being especially overzealous with his 2.30 fouls per 90 minutes.

Ayling’s numbers aren’t incredible across the season, but they have spiked recently and at 34 years old, perhaps this long and arduous season is starting to get to him a touch.

Ayling has committed one or more fouls in five of his last seven and has made four fouls in his last three matches, including committing two in the second-leg of the play-off semi-final.

This is of course an extremely high-pressure game, where the need to take a smart or tactical foul is far more likely. Ayling his aggressive in his tackles, but being on the outside of a three there is a chance he’s exposed in 1v1 situations.

Hull’s GK has averaged 3.16 saves per 90 so far this season and has been forced into three or more saves in five of his last seven matches. He also had to make five in the previous meeting with ‘Boro.

The bookies have Middlesbrough as strong favourites at 1.80, and I expect them to have plenty of the ball and plenty of opportunities. Hull will have to stay solid and fend them off.

The ideal scenario here would be Whittaker forcing a save from Ivor Pandur in The Tiger’s goal.

Morgan Whittaker has been brilliant for Middlesbrough this season, registering 21 goal contributions across his 35 starts in the Championship from a combined xG + xA of just 12.0.

This is a notable overachievement, but shows how Whittaker's confidence is seeing him take on speculative efforts and also suggests that his teammates are putting away the chances he creates (1.43 per 90). No Boro player has registered more goal contributions in the Championship this season than Whittaker, with the winger registering a goal and an assist when Boro beat Hull 4-1 earlier in the season.

Whittaker is one of a few players in the Championship who look ready to make the step up to the Premier League, and his impressive goal contribution numbers are supported by strong underlying numbers despite the gap that does exist between his expected totals and actual returns this time.

There's a smidge of value here too, Whittaker is priced as short as 1.8 with some bookmakers to register a goal contribution here - and this angle is covered by Super Sub.

Middlesbrough have been reinstated to the play-off final following Southampton’s expulsion from the competition.

The initial league meeting between these sides in the Championship produced five goals as Boro came away 4-1 winners.

Boro have seen 2+ goals in three of their last five matches across all competitions.

Hull scored twice away from home against Millwall to book their spot in the playoff final. 

Bayern have won each of the last five head to head meetings between the sides, scoring 16 goals and conceding just 4.

Bayern have only lost one of their last 24 matches across all competitions, which was in the Champions League against PSG.

Stuttgart are unbeaten across their last four matches, but only managed to win one of these games.

Stuttgart finished 27 points behind Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, highlighting the substantial gap between the sides. 

Girona have only kept six clean sheets in LaLiga this season (16%), they must win here to be sure of their chances of avoiding the drop.

Elche need just a point, but have the worst away record in the division - winning just one of their 18 away matches this term.

Elche have seen BTTS in four of their last five matches in LaLiga, winning two of these games.

Elche have conceded 37 goals on the road in LaLiga this season, only Real Oviedo (39) have shipped more goals on their travels.

Mallorca must win and hope other results go their way to survive in LaLiga for another season.

Real Oviedo sit rock bottom of LaLiga and have nothing to fight for having already been relegated from the Spanish top flight.

Real Oviedo have only won two of their 18 away matches in LaLiga this season, scoring just 17 goals.

76% of Mallorca’s points in LaLiga this season have come in front of their own supporters.

Mallorca rank ninth for their home record in LaLiga, losing just four of their 18 home matches this term.

Fuhrich has managed 3+ shots in each of his last three appearances in the DFB Pokal, also registering a shot on target in each of these games.

Fuhrich scored from two shots on target in the most recent meeting between the sides, and has registered 14 goal contributions across just 20 starts in the Bundesliga this term - including two goal contributions across his last three appearances for the club.

Fuhrich has taken 45 shots in the Bundesliga this season (2.38 per 90), seeing 23 of these efforts find the target (1.21 per 90). 

Stuttgart have registered 11+ shots in each of their last two meetings with Bayern Munich, and found the target on seven occasions when the sides last met as Bayern came away 4-2 winners.

ABC expert Ramis has picked out a double for the final day of LaLiga, focusing on the relegation battle.

Rayan has registered seven goal contributions across just 12 starts in the Premier League (5 goals, 2 assists).

Rayan has registered a goal contribution in four of his last five Premier League matches.

Bournemouth could qualify for the Champions League with a win here.

Fernandes needs just one assist to break the long standing Premier League record for the most assists in a single season (21).

Only Erling Haaland (35) has registered more goal contributions in the Premier League than Bruno Fernandes (28) this season.

Fernandes has registered 10 goal contributions across his last 10 Premier League appearances.

Szoboszlai has easily been Liverpool’s best player this season, recording 13 goal contributions across his 35 starts in the Premier League.

Szoboszlai has registered five goal contributions across his last five Premier League appearances, including two assists against Aston Villa last time out.

Szoboszlai registered an assist when Liverpool faced off against Brentford earlier in the season. 

Crysencio Summerville draws an average of 2.53 fouls per 90 in the Premier League this season and has been fouled at least twice in 10 of his previous 14 appearances. The West Ham forward could find himself up against makeshift Leeds right-wing back Dan James, while he also likes to drift inside where he could cross paths with Ethan Ampadu, who commits an average of 1.46 fouls per 90 in the Premier League this season.

James Garner has committed 2 or more fouls in four of his last five Premier League outings, while he has been penalised at least twice in 11 of his 18 top-flight appearances away from home this season. The Everton midfielder is likely to be up against Spurs' trio Conor Gallagher, Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Bentancur, who drew a combined total of 4 fouls between them against Chelsea on Tuesday night.

Sunderland have only lost four of their 18 home matches in the Premier League this season.

Chelsea have only won one of their last five Premier League matches, and have only managed to beat Burnley in their games against the promoted sides this season.

Sunderland could qualify for Europe with a win here.

Regis Le Bris' side beat Chelsea 2-1 when the sides met at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season.

Each of the last four head to head meetings between these sides have seen 3+ goals.

Manchester United have kept just seven clean sheets in the Premier League this season, their games tend to be end to end and produce high goal counts.

Brighton have seen 47 goals across their 18 home games in the Premier League this season, working out to an average of 2.61 goals per game

West Ham are averaging 5.28 corners per game at the London Stadium this season, a metric we can expect to increase given the context surrounding this clash. 

Nuno's side must win to have a chance of staying up in the Premier League this season, they've registered 4+ corners in both head to head meetings with Leeds this season.

Wolves have collected 75 yellow cards in the Premier League this season, only five sides have picked up more cautions than the Wanderers.

Wolves committed 12 fouls in the initial league meeting between the sides, and have committed more fouls than any other side in the Premier League this season (13.1 per game).

The referee for this game is Andrew Kitchen who is averaging 3.67 cards per game in the Premier League this season across his three appointments.

Enzo Fernandez scored a brilliant goal from outside the box against Tottenham last time out, marking his third shot on target across his last five matches in the Premier League.

Only Joao Pedro (15) has scored more goals for Chelsea in the Premier League this season than Enzo Fernandez. This is also Fernandez’s best scoring season in a Chelsea shirt having doubled his tally across all competitions this campaign.

Fernandez has scored three goals across his last five matches for Chelsea against Liverpool, Tottenham and Leeds. Fernandez had three shots on target from four shots overall when the sides met earlier in the season.

Enzo Le Fee committed three fouls and was shown a yellow card when these sides met earlier in the season, with Sunderland exceeding their seasonal foul average (10.6 per game) by committing 13 fouls at Stamford Bridge.

Le Fee has committed 28 fouls across his 32 starts in the Premier League this season (0.89 per 90). The rise in his foul average in the most recent head to head meeting would suggest that Chelsea’s midfield can force a rise in this metric.

Le Fee’s direct opponent is likely to be Moises Caicedo who was fouled twice when the sides met earlier in the campaign and is averaging 1.76 fouls won per 90 across the season as a whole. 

Chelsea registered nine corners when the sides met earlier in the season and have leaned on these set pieces as a route to goal all season - netting 13 of their 57 goals from non-penalty set pieces (22%).

Chelsea are averaging 5.22 corners per game when away from home in the Premier League, only a handful of sides in the Premier League have won more corners this season on the road than Chelsea.

Sunderland are conceding 4.83 corners per game in the Premier League at home this season, they tend to be vulnerable to high corner counts due to their impressive defensive structure under Regis Le Bris.

Robin Roefs was forced into making six saves when these sides met earlier on in the campaign, and has been one of Sunderland’s top performing players this season.

Roefs is averaging 3.15 saves per 90 in the Premier League this term, maintaining a save percentage of 70% across these matches. Only Martin Dubravka (127) has made more saves than the Sunderland keeper this campaign (107).

Chelsea are averaging 4.40 shots on target per 90 in the Premier League this campaign, and only Manchester City (70.0) have a higher expected goals tally than the Blues (65.6).

West Ham committed 11 fouls and picked up three yellow cards when these sides clashed at Elland Road earlier in the season. 

West Ham have picked up 68 yellow cards in the Premier League this season (1.83 per game).

West Ham have picked up 3+ cards in each of their last four matches, showing how the pressure of a relegation run-in is leading to a rise in their card numbers.

West Ham have committed 11+ fouls in each of their last three matches, further suggesting that the situation West Ham find themselves in is leading to frustration.

West Ham must win to have a chance of surviving in the Premier League and hope that Tottenham are beaten by Everton in the game taking place across London.

West Ham won the corner battle when these sides met at Elland Road earlier in the season, registering four corners to Leeds’ three.

Leeds have the lowest corner average of any side when away from home in the Premier League this season (3.22 per game). 

West Ham are averaging 5.28 corners per game at the London Stadium this season, a metric we can expect to increase given the context surrounding this clash. 

Ampadu was fouled once in the most recent meeting between the sides in the FA Cup.

Ampadu has been an underrated figure at the heart of the Leeds side this year, winning 35 fouls across his 34 starts in the Premier League this season (1.04 per 90).

Ampadu will face off against Mateus Fernandes (1.47 fouls per 90) and Tomas Soucek (1.58 fouls per 90), offering the perfect opponents for Ampadu to be fouled at least once here.

Ampadu has been fouled in three of his last five Premier League appearances, winning 2+ fouls in two of these games.

Calvert-Lewin is Leeds’ top scorer in the Premier League this season with 14 goals and scored last time out as Leeds clinched a 1-0 win against Brighton.

Calvert-Lewin scored from the penalty spot when these sides last faced off in the FA Cup, managing two shots on target in just 20 minutes of action on that occasion.

Calvert-Lewin is averaging 1.12 shots on target per 90 in the Premier League this season, operating with a shot accuracy of 46%.

Richarlison has been Tottenham’s most important player in the relegation run in so far, managing a shot on target in each of his last three Premier League matches.

Richarlison scored from two shots on target against Chelsea last time out, and lines up against his former club here as he looks to pull Tottenham away from the drop zone.

No Tottenham player has scored more goals than Richarlison in the Premier League this season (11), he’s scored seven more goals than Tottenham’s next top scorer. 

Richarlison is averaging 1.24 shots on target per 90 in the Premier League this season from a wider shot average of 2.82 shots per 90.
