Top Picks: Newcastle (Over 2.5g), Almeria, Reggina.
Additions: Villareal, Fiorentina.
Match analysis are as follows:
1) Newcastle (Over 2.5g)
Ratings: 8.5/10
Toon Army welcomes Tottenham to St James Park looking to stretch their unbeaten run to 6 matches. At home, Newcastle have scored in every match, with an average of 2 goals a match in their last 5. Tottenham are also pretty impressive on their travels lately, notching an average of 2 goals per match in their last 6 away. Its hard to choose a winner here but over 2.5 goals is definitely the call considering the attacking prowess and form of both teams.
2) Almeria (+1/4 on AH)
Ratings: 8/10
Almeria visits Sporting Gijon, with both teams currently finding themselves struggling to garner points. Sporting are weak at home, as opposed to their travels. Conceding an average of 2.25 goals per match at home, this glaring fact does not augur well for Sporting as visitors Almeria are able to score at least a goal on average away. Sporting have yet to draw in their last 17 matches, and Almeria stands to gain at least a point with their robust and defensive play.
3) Reggina (+3/4 on AH)
Ratings: 7.5/10
Purely statistical pick here as head-to-head record favours Reggina as Cagliari have never beaten them at home in their last 5 (lost 3, drew 2). Despite Cagliari's overall home strength with only 2 losses out of 7, there is an element of surprise in store as Reggina is due for at least a draw away. In addition to this, stats reveal only a 33.33% chance for Cagliari to win this after achieving 5 consecutive wins on asian handicap.
