Top Pick: Torino, Sporting Gijon.
Match analysis is as follows:
1) Torino (+3/4 on AH)
Ratings: 8/10
Lazio welcomes Torino in this Coppa Italia tie. Despite being the favourites here, Lazio have only won once at home since 9 Nov 2008. They seem to be playing better away, and this could prove to be their nemesis as Torino will be looking to defend in numbers to take something out of this match. Stats are backing the visitors at 71.43% to get a positive result to take back home for the return leg.
2) Sporting Gijon (+1/2 on AH)
Ratings: 8.8/10
Cup specialist Athletic Bilbao hosts Sporting Gijon in this 2 legged cup tie. It has been 12 matches since Sporting have drawn away, and 23 matches in total since they have last drawn at all! As i've mentioned before, something has got to give sooner or later. Receiving a handicap is definitely the best call here as there is every chance for Sporting to surprise Bilbao, who have gone unbeaten in their last 9 matches.
