With the last 16 of both the Champions League and Europa League wrapping up this week, we have a busy week in prospect. There’s also FA Cup quarter-finals and domestic European action to look forward to, with no end to the televised matches.
Luckily we’ve ran through both TV listings and football statistics to pick out seven bets from the best daily football matches on TV this week. This continental round trip takes us from Wolverhampton to Lyon, with a 41/1 accumulator tip to enjoy in the process.
You can see our daily TV selections below, while don’t forget to see our Sports Tips section for predictions across a range of sports.
Daily TV games accumulator
Monday – Wolves vs Liverpool (Premier League)
Where to watch: Sky Sports Main Event
It’s odd seeing this Liverpool team now, given how dominant they seemed a year ago. This isn’t Jurgen Klopp’s strongest side, but the Reds look strikingly poor. Having scored just four times in their last seven league games, we expect Liverpool to fall short against a Wolves side who have suffered one defeat in their last seven.
Betting tip: Wolves double chance
Tuesday – Real Madrid vs Atalanta (Champions League)
Where to watch: BT Sport 3
Atalanta have won every away game in Europe this season. Not only that, but they won each of those without conceding a goal. They won at both Ajax and Liverpool in the last round and now la Dea head to Spain to face a Real Madrid side who lead 1-0 from the first leg. This tie is perfectly poised, but we are siding with the visitors who proved to themselves that they have nothing to fear against Real after a narrow loss while being a man down.
Betting tip: Atalanta double chance
Wednesday – Chelsea vs Atletico Madrid (Champions League)
Where to watch: BT Sport 2
Thomas Tuchel has made his Chelsea side incredibly solid, something which is hardly going to change as they look to protect a 1-0 lead. The Blues won in the ‘away’ leg against the Spanish side and they can boast home advantage here, unlike their fellow English sides in this round. The Blues will look to continue the approach which has seen their last eight matches finish with under 2.5 goals.
Betting tip: Under 2.5 goals
Thursday – AC Milan vs Man United (Europa League)
Where to watch: BT Sport 2
The 1-1 draw between these two at Old Trafford was a tough result for United to take. However, the Red Devils have done their best work on the road this season and they should head to San Siro full of confidence. Milan come into this game with one clean sheet in their last nine, while five of their last six Europa League games have seen both teams score.
Betting tip: Both teams to score
Friday – Arminia Bielefeld vs RB Leipzig (Bundesliga)
Where to watch: BT Sport 3
Leipzig are still in the title chase and they come into this game with six wins from their last seven. The visitors have won each of their last three away games 3-0. Expect another big win for the visitors here, given that Arminia Bielefeld have conceded 12 times in three games at home to top four sides.
Betting tip: Leipzig -1
Saturday – Everton vs Man City (FA Cup)
Where to watch: BT Sport 1
Everton have played out some entertaining games at Goodison of late. Their 2-1 loss to Burnley here showed their weaknesses, but the Toffees impressed in a recent 3-1 loss to league leaders Man City. However, the pick of the Goodison bunch was Everton’s thrilling 5-4 win over Tottenham in the cup. We expect more of the same in the quarter-finals.
Betting tip: Over 2.5 goals
Sunday – Lyon vs PSG (Ligue 1)
Where to watch: BT Sport 1
This is a huge clash at the top of Ligue 1 as two title contenders meet, but we still expect an exciting game. Lyon have seen six of their last seven outings finish with both teams finding the net, while PSG have struck in all but one of their last 17 games. There’s not a great deal between the two in terms of results this year, so we’re backing both to find the net to round off this week’s acca.
Betting tip: Both teams to score
