class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Pochettino's side have an exceptional scoring record in the Champions League and we are backing them to net when they visit Camp Nou in the last-16

Barcelona welcome Paris Saint-Germain to Camp Nou on Tuesday evening in arguably the blockbuster Champions League last-16 tie.

The Catalans come into the game in strong form, having won their last seven La Liga games, and Saturday saw them beat Alaves 5-1 thanks to a brace from Lionel Messi.

PSG, meanwhile, head to Spain following a 2-1 weekend win over Nice but the Parisians have been far from the all-conquering domestic force we are used to seeing.

Barcelona vs PSG Latest Odds

Barca’s last European game at Camp Nou saw them beaten 3-0 by Juventus in December, their first home defeat in the Champions League is more than eight years.

The hosts are clear favourites to claim a victory this week, though, with bet365 pricing them at 19/20 (1.95) while PSG are available at 12/5 (3.40) and the draw at 3/1 (4.00).

Barcelona vs PSG Team News

Ronald Koeman remains without long-term absentees Gerard Pique, Ansu Fati, Philippe Coutinho and Sergi Roberto, while Ronald Araujo is a doubt with a muscular problem.

For PSG, Neymar is ruled out of this clash along with Angel Di Maria and Marco Veratti. 

Barcelona vs PSG Preview

It has been a turbulent season for Barcelona with matters off the field without doubt impacting the team’s performances, yet there have been positive signs in the last few weeks.

Indeed, the Catalans have begun to click in the final third with Lionel Messi firing on all cylinders and the likes of Ousmane Demebele, Antoine Griezmann and Pedri all combining extremely well.

The same, however, cannot be said of Barca defensively, given they have conceded in eight of their last 10 competitive matches and shipped 14 goals in that time.

PSG should be able to take advantage of that considering they have scored in 40 of their last 41 Champions League matches and despite missing some important players, they will surely be able to contribute a high-scoring game.

Barcelona vs PSG Tips and Predictions

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals looks an excellent choice at 8/11 (1.72) while both teams to score in the first half at 5/2 (3.50) could be of interest.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Premier League champions are in a horrendous run of form and our tipster isn't expecting much from them in the Champions League on Tuesday

The potentially defining week of Liverpool’s season continues on Tuesday when they travel to the Puskas Arena in Budapest, Hungary, to face RB Leipzig in the Champions league last-16 first leg.

Jurgen Klopp’s men have won only three of their last 12 games in all competitions, most recently going down 3-1 at Leicester City in the Premier League, and this continental fixture comes just a few days before the Merseyside derby.

RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Latest Odds

Although they have lost their last three games, bet365 still make Liverpool 13/10 (2.30) favourites to beat Julian Nagelsmann’s men on Tuesday.

Coronavirus restrictions means RB Leipzig have lost any semblance of home advantage and the Bundesliga side are 19/10 (2.90) to take the lead back to Anfield for the second leg on March 10.

A draw would leave this tie in the balance ahead of the return fixture and that is priced at 13/5 (3.60) with the online bookmaker.

RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Team News

Ibrahima Konate came off the bench last week after nearly two months out but Emil Forsberg, Konrad Laimer, Benjamin Henrichs and Dominik Szoboszlai are all unlikely to be available.

James Milner became another Liverpool casualty after injuring his hamstring against Leicester, joining Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Naby Keita, Diogo Jota, Joel Matip, Fabinho, Ben Davies, Divock Origi and Caoimhin Kelleher on the sidelines.

RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Preview

Things could scarcely have gone more differently for these two sides since the last-16 draw was made on December 14, with Liverpool’s tally of only 15 Premier League points from a possible 36 firmly ending their bid to retain the title.

Meanwhile, RB Leipzig’s Bundesliga challenge has gone from strength to strength thanks to six wins and two draws from their last 10 outings in the league, as well as a pair of convincing victories in the DFB-Pokal.

Nagelsmann’s side have also kept eight clean sheets in those 12 games and Liverpool look totally devoid of confidence, failing to score in five of their last nine league fixtures whilst conceding in seven of those.

RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Tips and Predictions

Liverpool’s cutting edge that has been displayed so frequently under Klopp has largely vanished in the last two months and bet365’s price of 4/5 (1.80) on the Reds scoring under 1.5 goals in this Champions League clash looks the way to go on Tuesday.

Also worth considering is the 19/10 (2.90) on RB Leipzig to take a first-leg lead, with the Germans having won their last four fixtures by an aggregate of 10-1 and their opponents on a three-match losing streak.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having struggled for cutting edge at Goodison Park in the Premier League, Al Hain-Cole can't see the Toffees posing much threat to Guardiola's men

Manchester City will be looking to open up a 10-point lead at the top of the Premier League table when they travel to Goodison Park to take on Everton on Wednesday.

Pep Guardiola’s men are seven points clear of neighbours Manchester United with a game in hand, having put together a record-breaking 16-match winning streak in all competitions.

Everton vs Manchester City Latest Odds

Having come out on top in each of the last five meetings with this opposition, City are 1/3 (1.33) favourites with bet365 to extend that run to 17 in a row.

The Toffees have taken just one point from their last four matches on home turf but can be backed at 15/2 (8.50) to bounce back with a shock victory here.

Two of the hosts’ last three fixtures have resulted in draws after 90 minutes, and you can get odds of 9/2 (5.50) on them earning a point in this one.

Everton vs Manchester City Team News

Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Jordan Pickford will hope to return after missing Sunday’s Fulham defeat, while James Rodriguez will be assessed after coming off injured in that clash and Fabian Delph and Jean-Philippe Gbamin are also doubtful.

Ruben Dias and Sergio Aguero are both in contention after making the bench for Saturday’s win over Tottenham and Ilkay Gundogan faces a late fitness test, although Nathan Ake, Fernandinho and Kevin De Bruyne remain sidelined.

Everton vs Manchester City Preview

Calro Ancelotti will be particularly eager to have top scorer Calvert-Lewin back in action as soon as possible after another toothless display in the shock home defeat to relegation-battling Fulham.

That match saw them fail to score for the third time in four Premier League home games, having netted just once the other match in that sequence.

This does not bode well for a game against the Citizens, whose watertight defence has kept 11 clean sheets over the course of their 16-match winning streak – conceding just five goals in total during that run.

Everton vs Manchester City Tips and Predictions

Having let in just one goal in their last eight matches in the league, odds of 6/5 (2.20) seem particularly generous on City consigning Everton to a fourth home defeat in five in which they fail to hit the back of the net.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Serie A holders saw their eight-game unbeaten streak ended at the weekend but our tipster is backing them to bounce back in the Champions League

Juventus continue their quest for a first Champions League title in 25 years when they travel to Porto for the first leg of their last-16 clash at Estadio Do Dragao.

The 36-time Serie A winners have reached the final of this competition five times since the last time they lifted it back in 1996, but they crashed out at this stage last season.

Porto vs Juventus Latest Odds

Juve won five of their six games in the group stage, losing only to Barcelona, and are 19/20 (1.95) with bet365 to take a first-leg lead back to Italy.

Porto have not won any of the five previous meetings between these two teams and are 16/5 (4.20) outsiders to break that run with victory here.

The Portuguese champions have drawn their last four matches in all competitions and another stalemate is 9/4 (3.25).

Porto vs Juventus Team News

Mouhamed Mbaye, Nanu, Otavio and Zaidu Sanusi are all injured for Porto, whilst Ivan Marcano is doubtful.

Juve will be without Arthur, Juan Cuadrado, Paulo Dybala, Franco Israel and Aaron Ramsey for the clash in Portugal.

Porto vs Juventus Preview

Juventus’ bid for a 10th consecutive Serie A faltered somewhat at the weekend after a 1-0 defeat at Napoli, putting Andrea Pirlo’s men eight points behind leaders Inter.

Despite the result, they will likely take heart from the performance that saw them amass 24 shots and only denied at least a point thanks to a string of fine saves by Alex Meret, with Cristiano Ronaldo going close on a number of occasions.

Given Juve were on an eight-match streak without defeat prior to Saturday, winning seven of those, they may prove too much to handle for a Porto side that has gone four games without victory.

Although two of those draws came against third-place Sporting Braga, with one meeting in the cup, the other two came against relegation-threatened pair Belenenses and Boavista.

Porto vs Juventus Tips and Predictions

Juventus should be able to claim victory over Porto, especially after beating Barcelona in their last Champions League away game, and bet365’s price of 19/20 (1.95) on an away win offers the best bet for this last-16 clash on Wednesday.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Calvert-Lewin doubtful due to injury, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Brazilian to fire past the Reds' weakened defence for Ancelotti's men

Liverpool will need to get their front three firing when Everton visit Anfield for Saturday’s Premier League clash.

Jurgen Klopp’s men have scored just a single goal in their last four matches on home turf – a Mohamed Salah penalty in their 4-1 defeat against Manchester City.

The Egypt international has actually scored seven goals in his last seven matches, taking his tally to 24 for the season in all competitions.

That return makes it no wonder Salah is priced at a relatively narrow 12/5 (3.40) with bet365 to open the scoring in a massive game in the battle for the top four, and 4/7 (1.57) to strike anytime.

Sadio Mane has been far less prolific so far this season, hitting the back of the net just 11 times in total and scoring only six times in his last 21 appearances.

However, the 28-year-old does tend to enjoy these occasions – scoring in four of his nine Merseyside derbies since joining the club – and can be backed at 10/11 (1.91) to get on the scoresheet once again.

Nobody could do with a morale-boosting goal more than Roberto Firmino, who is unlikely to attract too much attention at 6/5 (2.20) after a run of one just goal scored in 13 appearances.

At the other end of the pitch, Carlo Ancelotti is likely to have to make do without top scorer Dominic Calvert-Lewin as he struggles to shake off a hamstring injury.

In his absence, Richarlison is likely to lead the line once again after finding a way past Manchester City’s watertight defence in Wednesday’s 3-1 defeat – his third goal in three fixtures.

Considering Liverpool’s long injury list in defence and failure to keep a clean sheet in six league matches, odds of 10/1 (11.00) seem very generous on the Brazilian breaking the deadlock at Anfield – as well as 3/1 (4.00) anytime odds.

Josh King provides another attacking option following his deadline day move from Bournemouth and can be backed at 10/3 (4.33) to open his account for the Toffees with a derby goal, while Gylfi Sigurdsson is a 4/1 (5.00) shot after scoring in two of his last five appearances.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The La Liga champions are looking to continue their winning run this month and our tipster is backing them to claim another comfortable three points

Real Madrid travel to the Estadio Jose Zorilla on Saturday evening to face Real Valladolid with Zinedine Zidane’s men aiming for their fourth consecutive La Liga victory.

The Spanish champions are clear favourites against Sergio Gonzalez’s side, who have won just one of their last 10 league games to drop firmly into the relegation zone.

Real Valladolid vs Real Madrid Latest Odds

The hosts have won just twice at home all season, failing to keep a clean sheet in any of their 11 league matches in the own stadium and are priced at 6/1 (7.00) with bet365

Madrid, meanwhile, have been extremely strong on the road, losing just one of their last 17 matches and are also the top scorers away from home in La Liga.

The visitors can be backed at 8/15 (1.53) and the draw at 3/1 (4.00).

Real Valladolid vs Real Madrid Team News

Captain Sergio Ramos remains sidelined for Los Blancos along with Eden Hazard, Dani Carvajal, Fede Valverde, Rodryo , Eder Militao, Marcelo and Alvaro Odriozola.

Valladolid are also without a number of important players, including Kiko Olivas, Pablo Hervias, Marcos Andre and Raul Carnero, while January signing Lucas Olaza is suspended.

Real Valladolid vs Real Madrid Preview

After a fairly middling start to the campaign, the Spanish champions have regained some of the solidity which helped them to the title last season – recording four clean sheets in their last seven league games.

They will be confident of extending that run against such goal-shy opponents this weekend, with Valladolid averaging less than one strike per game this term.

Indeed, not only are Valladolid poor in the final third, but they have also kept just two clean sheets all term and there should be plenty of interest in backing Real Madrid to claim a win.

Zidane’s side have scored at least twice in nine of their last 12 matches in La Liga and backing them to do so again on Saturday evening makes plenty of sense.

Real Valladolid vs Real Madrid Tips and Predictions

Real Madrid to win and score over 1.5 goals is offered at 5/6 (1.83) and looks like an excellent way to back the visitors at a healthy price.

Also worthy of consideration should be backing the champions to win to nil at 8/5 (2.60).

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the Toffees prolific on the road and Klopp's men still missing their key defensive players, Al Hain-Cole expects plenty of goalmouth action

Liverpool will be desperate to make a statement when Everton visit Anfield for Saturday’s Premier League clash.

The Reds have lost three successive matches to slip down to sixth in the league, although they did secure an impressive 2-0 away Champions League victory over RB Leipzig on Tuesday.

Liverpool vs Everton Latest Odds

Unbeaten in their last 23 Merseyside derbies, they are 4/9 (1.44) favourites with bet365 to give themselves another lift with a much-needed victory here.

Carlo Ancelotti’s men are just three points adrift of their neighbours with a game in hand and can be backed at 11/2 (6.50) to pull level by coming out on top at this ground for the first time since 1999.

Five of the last seven league meetings between this pair have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 10/3 (4.33) on them cancelling each other out once again in this one.

Liverpool vs Everton Team News

Naby Keita, Fabinho and James Milner all face a race against time to recover from injury for this game, while Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, and Diogo Jota are all ruled out.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be hoping to return after the hamstring injury he sustained in the FA Cup win over Tottenham was not as severe as first though, although Jean-Philippe Gbamin and Yerry Mina are definitely sidelined.

Liverpool vs Everton Preview

October’s reverse encounter at Goodison Park is one that will live in infamy in this corner of Merseyside, having seen Van Dijk ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering a wild challenge from Jordan Pickford.

With Gomez and Matip also subsequently falling victim to long-term injury, Jurgen Klopp’s team has struggled all campaign to find a settled backline – conceding the same number of goals as 17th-placed Burnley and coming into this clash without a clean sheet in six league fixtures.

On target in all but one of their 12 away games this season and having found a way past a miserly Manchester City defence in Wednesday’s 3-1 defeat, the Toffees should cause plenty of problems for the hosts’ latest makeshift backline.

Liverpool vs Everton Tips and Predictions

Considering Liverpool have scored 17 times in their previous seven home games against Everton and looked lively against Leipzig on Tuesday, odds of 3/4 (1.75) seem a solid bet on both sides getting on target in another exciting derby clash.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Foxes have kept four clean sheets in their last five games in all competitions and our tipster expects this Premier League to be a tight clash

Leicester City are looking to continue their strong run of form in the Premier League when they travel to Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon.

The Foxes have won six of their last 11 games, including two of their last three, and can consolidate their top-four position with three points at Villa Park.

Aston Villa vs Leicester City Latest Odds

After a 3-1 win over Liverpool, bet365 make Brendan Rodgers’ men 7/5 (2.40) favourites to claim their 15th victory of the season.

Villa can do the double over Leicester after winning the reverse fixture 1-0 back in October but are 15/8 (2.88) outsiders here.

Dean Smith’s side have only drawn three matches all season and another stalemate is available at 5/2 (3.50).

Aston Villa vs Leicester City Team News

Matty Cash, Wesley, and Kortney Hause remain out for the hosts, although Smith could make some changes to the eleven that was lucky to escape Brighton with a 0-0 draw last time out.

Timothy Castagne should return for Leicester but James Justin, Wes Morgan, Ayoze Perez, Wesley Fofana and Dennis Praet are injured.

Aston Villa vs Leicester City Preview

Leicester’s aspirations of finishing in the Champions League places are still going strong after their 3-1 win over Liverpool last time out, taking their tally to five wins from eight games in 2021 – more than any other side except leaders Manchester City.

The 0-0 draw at Slavia Prague in the Europa League on Thursday means they have now kept four clean sheets in their last five games in all competitions – albeit largely against some of the lower-scoring sides in the division.

It does seem likely that Villa will find the net considering they have done so in nine of their last 11 Premier League games, but they have only scored more than once in two of their last nine top-flight fixtures.

Aston Villa vs Leicester City Tips and Predictions

Villa’s defence has also been strong in recent weeks with three clean sheets in their last four games and opposing both teams to score at 6/5 (2.20) with bet365 looks to be the way to go in this Premier League clash.

This selection has paid out in four of Leicester’s last five games and in five of the most recent seven that Smith’s men have contested.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>This London derby has provided plenty of goals over the last couple of seasons and our tipster is backing another high-scoring encounter this weekend

West Ham welcome Tottenham to the London Stadium on Sunday in a Premier League derby with plenty at stake.

Spurs’ recent poor run has seen them drop to ninth in the table, six points behind their rivals from the east of the capital, and another defeat this weekend would pile more pressure on Jose Mourinho and his side.

West Ham vs Tottenham Latest Odds

By contrast, David Moyes’ men have won six of their last eight Premier League games – a run which has put them firmly in the hunt for a Europa League place.

The hosts are offered at 13/8 (2.63) with bet365 to claim three points, with Spurs available at 17/10 (2.70) and the draw at 12/5 (3.40).

West Ham vs Tottenham Team News

Spurs are still missing Serge Aurier and Giovani Lo Celso, although Sergio Reguilon is nearing a return from his muscle problem that has kept him out for over a month and could be involved in some capacity.

Angelo Ogbonna, Andriy Yarmolenko and Arthur Masuaku are out for the Hammers, whilst Michail Antonio could return from a thigh injury.

West Ham vs Tottenham Preview

The last meeting of these two rivals came back in October when the Hammers scored three times in the last eight minutes to claim a famous 3-3 draw in north London.

Since then, the two teams have enjoyed diverging fortunes with Spurs sinking like a stone and West Ham embarking upon one of their best top-flight runs in recent years.

However, a 4-1 win against Wolfsberger in the Europa League on Thursday night may have restored some confidence to Mourinho’s men, and at the very least they should be able to contribute to a high-scoring game this weekend.

The last derby produced six goals, while Spurs’ previous two trips to the London Stadium have seen them win 3-2 and 3-1 respectively.

West Ham vs Tottenham Tips and Predictions

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals is available at 6/5 (2.20) which looks like an excellent price for what is usually an open and entertaining fixture.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The visitors to Camp Nou have been in dreadful form and we are backing them to leave Catalonia with another heavy La Liga defeat this weekend

Barcelona welcome Cadiz to Camp Nou on Sunday afternoon in La Liga with Ronald Koeman’s men aiming to bounce back from their Champions League thrashing in midweek.

The Blaugrana were beaten 4-1 at home by Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday night and look like exiting the competition at the last-16 stage for the first time since 2007.

That result makes domestic matters even more pressing and Barca cannot afford to drop any more points in La Liga, and in March they will hope to turn around a 2-0 first leg deficit in their Copa Del Rey semi-final against Sevilla.

Barcelona vs Cadiz Latest Odds

Cadiz recorded a memorable win when they faced the Catalans earlier this season but Alvaro Cervera’s side are huge underdogs at Camp Nou, offered at 12/1 (13.00) by bet365.

The hosts can be backed at 1/6 (1.16) while the draw is priced at 7/1 (8.00).

Barcelona vs Cadiz Team News

Barca are without Sergi Roberto, Ansu Fati and Philippe Coutinho, while centre-back Ronald Araujo remains a major doubt.

Defender Juan Cala is suspended for the visitors, who have Alex Fernandez, Augusto Fernandez and Jens Jonsson out injured.

Barcelona vs Cadiz Preview

After a promising start to the season which saw them beat both Barca and Real Madrid, Cadiz are beginning to slip down the table.

The side from Andalusia have recorded just one win in their last 11 league games, losing each of their last four games, and their defensive solidity earlier in the season has dissipated.

Indeed, that streak has seen them concede a total of 15 goals – having previously only shipped 24 in their first 19 games.

Things are likely to get even worse for the side from the south of Spain when they visit the division’s top scorers, and despite Barca suffering a morale-draining defeat in midweek, the hosts will be keen to bounce back with a high-scoring win.

Barcelona vs Cadiz Tips and Predictions

Barcelona to win and over 3.5 goals in the game is offered at 6/5 (2.20) and looks like the best angle from which to approach this game.

The visitors have conceded four times in each of their last three matches and Barca will fancy their chances of getting among the goals.
