Cheltenham are showing no sign of downing tools for the season and they can make it four wins in a row at home to Tranmere. Rovers are in a five-team fight for survival in League Two but have taken only two points from their last 12 matches.

Plymouth are making a strong late charge towards the playoff places with six wins in their last nine games and they have won three of their last four on the road. Bradford failed to beat 10-man Barnsley on Saturday and lost their last home match to Stevenage, so they look vulnerable.

Toulouse have conceded 10 goals across three defeats ahead of this game, and each of those losses came against the three top sides in Ligue 1. In fact, the visitors have lost all six clashes with the top three, including Friday’s 3-2 defeat at second-placed Lens. The hosts have made the semis of the cup in high-scoring fashion, scoring 12 times in four games while keeping only one clean sheet.

Brighton have taken 10 points from their last four Premier League games and look good value to win a fourth successive meeting with Chelsea, who head to the Amex Stadium having lost six of their last seven games.

Inter Milan have scored eight goals against Como in Serie A this season, including a 4-3 win earlier this month. The Nerazzurri have returned from the international break with three wins from three, scoring 12 times. The Serie A leaders have scored 2.76 goals per game at home in the league this season, with 71% of their home matches featuring three or more goals.

The Raptors lost by 13 points in Cleveland, continuing their abysmal record against the best sides in the NBA. The line has barely moved for Game 2, with Toronto aiming to keep things closer. However, the Raptors were fortunate to be that close in their opener, as Scottie Barnes and Jamal Shead combined to make eight of their 10 three-point attempts. Given the pair shoot around 30% from deep, this could easily have been a 30-point blow-out.

Atlanta will make all the necessary adjustments going into Game 2. There were some positives to take away from the opener despite an 11-point loss. Johnson and Alexander-Walker both struggled offensively. That duo can adjust and bounce back, pushing the Hawks closer at least. Atlanta also won once already at MSG this season, while their final regular-season meeting earlier this month was decided by three points. Three of the Knicks’ four wins at this stage last season came by three points or fewer, which suggests Atlanta can keep this competitive.

There were 221 points in Game 1, with the injuries that the Timberwolves are carrying impacting their scoring ability. That final number was boosted by the Nuggets getting to the free throw line 33 times and making 30 of those. Denver also looks stronger defensively than in the regular season, where their injury issues saw them struggle to keep scores down. The under landed in 55.4% of Minnesota’s regular-season games, and both sides are capable of restricting their opponent’s opportunities.

Alaves have seen both teams score in seven of their last eight games, which includes netting three goals against seventh-placed Real Sociedad and four at sixth-placed Celta Vigo. They can trouble a Real side that has conceded in eight straight La Liga matches.

The hosts have made the semis of the cup in high-scoring fashion, scoring 12 times in four games while keeping only one clean sheet.

Man City know a win will see them replace Arsenal at the top of the pile and they have been have been in strong scoring form with 11 goals across their last four games. City hammered the Clarets 5-1 in the reverse fixture and look capable of covering a -2 handicap on Wednesday.

Barcelona have celebrated their return to the Nou Camp with 16 wins from 16 home games this term. They’re expected to complete a double over Celta Vigo, following a 4-2 away win in November. Celta have suffered four defeats in five across all competitions, but they’ve scored in 13 of their 15 league trips.

Sevilla’s win over Atletico Madrid ended a three-game losing streak, but they remain only two points above the drop zone. Levante have won all three of their home meetings with the bottom six this season. They were also 3-0 winners in their visit to Sevilla earlier this term. 

Stuttgart’s two home defeats have come against Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, winning 11 of 13 matches outside of that. They’ve conceded just 14 goals, half of which came in those two defeats. Visitors Freiburg have lost all of their six visits to the Bundesliga’s top eight, failing to score in five of those.

RB Leipzig have strengthened their grip on a Champions League spot with six wins from seven. The visitors have lost five of their last seven, and nine of their 14 defeats this term have come by a two-goal margin or greater. Seven of Leipzig’s 10 home wins have been by two goals or more.

Southampton have been in brilliant form since the FA Cup third round, scoring in every game since their 3-2 win over Doncaster. City have hit top gear in recent weeks, and they are worthy favourites to make it to the FA Cup final for the fourth season running. However, the Saints have proven capable of causing problems going forward, so back them to score in a defeat.

Daniele De Rossi has made Genoa into a more open side, and his side have scored at least twice in six of their last seven home games. Cesc Fabregas has made Como into one of Serie A’s most progressive sides. His team have netted 15 goals across their visits to teams in the bottom half, but they’ve lost 4-3 to Inter and 2-1 to Sassuolo in their last two league games.

Chelsea’s loss to Manchester United was their sixth defeat in seven, and the Blues have failed to score in five of their last six. Leeds have had the Blues’ number this season, beating them 3-1 at Elland Road, before fighting back from 2-0 down to draw at Stamford Bridge.

Brighton have taken 10 points from their last four Premier League games and look good value to win a fourth successive meeting with Chelsea, who head to the Amex Stadium having lost six of their last seven games.

Wrexham have conceded in seven of their last nine Championship trips, and they’ve conceded 25 times across their 21 trips in this campaign. Oxford have yet to lose at home to a side in the top eight, with six of those seven encounters seeing both teams score.

Lincoln City are honing in on the League One title, and they head to a Doncaster side that has conceded 10 goals across their three meetings with the top two. That includes a 4-0 home defeat to Cardiff, but Donny are usually good for a goal at home, so they can contribute to a high-scoring game.

Barnsley have improved in recent weeks to achieve a safe mid-table position but they still find wins hard to come by with only one victory in their last nine games. Stevenage have taken 10 points from their last four home games and can boost their playoff hopes by grinding out a win.

Stockport conceded a costly late equaliser at Exeter on Saturday but they have won four home league games in a row and can see off Mansfield, who are now safe from the threat of relegation. The Stags have not won any of their last four matches.

Southampton are in excellent form and have won their last five games at St Mary’s. Bristol City lost at home to Norwich on Saturday and the Saints can march into their FA Cup semi-final on the back of another victory.

This is a big game for third-placed Cambridge and Grimsby, who are just outside the playoff places, and it could be an entertaining contest. There have been over 2.5 goals in five of the Mariners’ last six matches and this fixture could follow suit with both sides pressing for the three points.

Toulouse have conceded 10 goals across three defeats ahead of this game, and each of those losses came against the three top sides in Ligue 1.

Marcus Thuram scored for France in the international break, and since then, he’s scored in three straight appearances for Inter. That includes a brace against Como, and the striker has struck in both Serie A meetings between the sides this term. Thuram also found the net in last season’s home win over Como, so back him to continue his fine recent run.

Welbeck has six career goals against Chelsea, boosted by a brace in Brighton’s win in September. The forward has scored seven of his 12 goals this term at the Amex, and he has found the net in two of his last three appearances at home.

Windass has scored a team-high seven away goals this season, and he can continue his fine form on Tuesday. Windass has scored in four of his last five games for Wrexham, and he’s backed to find the net at Oxford.
