International Friendlies

Spain have won all three games in this break despite conceding in each of them. That includes a 4-1 win over Croatia in Seville, and they have seen BTTS land in 10 of their last 13 Nations League matches.

Estonia are unbeaten through their first three matches in this group, which includes a 1-1 draw in Iceland. The visitors had an unconvincing run ahead of this international break and they could slip up once again.

Luxembourg started this year with four wins from five, which included last month’s 2-1 win in Bulgaria. Clean sheets have been hard to come by for the hosts, while Bulgaria generated 1.16 xG in their 3-0 loss in Iceland last time out.

Belarus have scored 10 times across their three home matches in 2026, and they meet a Finland side that has seen BTTS land in clashes with Cape Verde, Hungary and Albania this year.

Scotland dominated Slovenia in the second half of their 0-0 draw in Ljubljana, and with the Tartan Army progressing under Sebastien Pocognoli, they can collect three points at Hampden Park.

England were 7-0 winners in Croatia last time out, and Thomas Tuchel will be demanding more of the same as they aim to put their World Cup exit behind them. Czechia have lost five of their last six competitive matches, and they were beaten 5-0 in their last visit to England.England were 7-0 winners in Croatia last time out, and Thomas Tuchel will be demanding more of the same as they aim to put their World Cup exit behind them.

Croatia should improve on their 7-0 hammering against England, but they host a Spanish side that has scored at least three times in each match in this international break.

England were 7-0 winners in Croatia last time out, and Thomas Tuchel will be demanding more of the same as they aim to put their World Cup exit behind them. The Three Lions have scored 17 goals in the four matches since their semi-final loss to Argentina, averaging over four per game.

Albania won 3-0 in San Marino last week, and they can ease to another victory on Tuesday. The hosts have won two of their three games in this break, and they were 4-2 winners over Jordan at home last October. Over the last 12 months, San Marino have suffered a 10-0 loss in Austria and a 7-1 defeat in Romania, while they lost their last match 4-0 in Belarus.

Gordon has scored in all three games during this international break, including a strike against Czechia in Prague. The winger has now found the net in his last four appearances for England.

Yamal has scored in all three matches in this break as he makes a late Ballon d’Or bid. He’s scored in eight of his previous nine matches for club and country, and he can extend that streak this week.

Slovenia have scored only nine goals in their last 12 matches, while one or both teams have failed to score in each of Scotland’s last seven games. Take the Tartan Army to win 2-0 on the correct score market.

Czechia have the lowest xG tally in this group, generating 1.7 across their three matches. England can make it three clean sheets on the bounce with a 4-0 win, continuing their fine scoring record have averaged over four goals per game since their semi-final loss to Argentina.

Lamine Yamal has been a sensation so far this season and made it four goals from three games for Spain against the Czech Republic. He has scored in eight of his last nine for club and country, netting 12 times in total in this period, and faces a Croatia side that were demolished by England last time out.

Borussia Dortmund are on a six-game winning streak which has seen them average 2.83 goals per game and they should fill their boots against a Werder Bremen side that were thrashed 4-1 at Freiburg earlier this season.

Lens are favourites for the points on Friday but they sit 15th in the Ligue 1 table with just four points from five games. They have lost three times, including to Lorient in their last home outing, while Lyon are challenging at the top of the table and head to Lens unbeaten in five.

Swansea are top of the Championship standings and look good value for a third successive win against Norwich. The Canaries are on a three-game losing streak and the Swans have won their last three home meetings with them.

Aston Villa may have ended their winless start to the Premier League season, but they have been torrid at times this season and face a Brentford side that took themselves into the top four with a 3-0 battering of Chelsea last time out. Back the Bees to emerge victorious at Villa Park.

Doncaster’s home fans are yet to celebrate a win this season and their first success of the season last time out came against the struggling Peterborough, while Burton have won two of their four league away games.

York City possess League Two’s best home record of the season, scoring 12 goals en route to four wins from four. They should be backed for another win against Northampton, who are 22nd in the standings and have lost three of their four competitive away games.

Monza’s Serie A games this season have averaged four goals per game and another high-scoring affair is expected in Rome, with Lazio having seen at least three goals in two of their last three Serie A fixtures.

Bologna have had a terrible start to the season and find themselves 18th after the opening five games. They are yet to taste victory and hosts Lecce beat Monza 3-2 in their last home fixture, while they are unbeaten in their last three home meetings with I Rossoblu.

Deportivo La Coruna have enjoyed a fantastic return to La Liga and head to San Sebastian having lost just one of their seven games. They have taken five points from three away games and their hosts on Sunday have only won one of their four competitive home fixtures.

Monaco have spent the last couple of seasons in the Champions League, losing 5-4 on aggregate to PSG in last season’s knockouts.

They’ve appointed former Flamengo boss Filipe Luiz as their new manager, and the former Chelsea defender has an impressive track record. He led the Brazilian side to their domestic title, and brought continental success in the Copa Libertadores.

Strasbourg reached the last four of the Conference League last term, and this Monaco side are capable of going even further under a highly-rated young manager.

City aren’t quite right yet under Enzo Maresca. They may well come good but Lens away was arguably the worst road trip from Pot 4 while Napoli and Leipzig represent stern tests from Pot 3. And then there’s PSG and Barcelona. Altogether a tough test.

The home game against Bodo/Glimt and trip to Slavia ought to be the bedrock of a campaign in which Dino Toppmoller’s impressive group – who have already beaten PSG in the French Champions Trophy – can emerge successfully.

Barcelona could easily lose in Paris, legitimately drop points at Galatasaray and at home to Man City. One more slip and the top eight could feasibly elude them.

Arsenal were flawless 12 months ago and should have no difficulty getting to the 16 points which are probably required.

BVB came close to the top eight last season and have a great draw this year with Betis, AEK Athens, Sabah and even Inter Milan at home looks winnable.

PSV’s hammerings of Napoli and Liverpool last term were rare highs in an otherwise disappointing campaign. This season’s draw looks far kindlier for Peter Bosz and his Eredivisie big-hitters.

Platense have lost three of their last four matches and they’ve suffered three defeats on their travels this term. Velez have won four of their five home games and they can secure another win.

Banfield have lost five of their 10 matches this season, and they should fall short against a Rosario side that are fourth out of 15 sides. The visitors have won three of their five trips this season, and they can claim maximum points once again.

Both teams have scored in all of Santa Fe’s away trips this season, and BTTS has landed in five of their last seven starts overall. The hosts have only failed to score once at home this season, while shipping 15 goals in 11 matches overall.
