Bilbao and Monaco are expected to record simple wins, plus more tips in this bonus midweek coupon...
Athletic Bilbao to beat Espanyol – {ODDS:145610798:1/2}
Athletic Bilbao have won 16 and lost just two of their 21 home games this season – against Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Ernesto Valverde’s side are also one of La Liga’s form sides, having won four of their last six league games.
Even though Espanyol aren’t in dismal form themselves, a win looks beyond them here.
Los Periquitos have mustered just one away win in their last nine attempts.
Get on Bilbao.
Monaco to beat Lille – {ODDS:148305339:4/9}
This one is an absolute banker.
Monaco have won 21 of their 24 games at the Stade Louis II this season, losing just once in all competitions.
Leonardo Jardim’s side have also lost just one match in their last 18 in domestic competition and look unstoppable.
It is difficult to offer much hope for Lille, who are yet to win against a top five side this season.
Given that they also needed extra time to get past fourth-tier Bergerac in the previous round of the Coupe de France, it doesn’t look good for them.
RB Leipzig to beat Mainz – {ODDS:145478385:6/5}
This is the longest pick of the coupon, but a safe one.
Mainz have lost three consecutive Bundesliga matches and have managed just two victories in 11.
Those results have put them third-bottom of the league’s form table and Leipzig should take full advantage.
The Red Bulls are the league’s second-best side away from home – beaten only by Bayern Munich – and have won four of their six games against the bottom four this season.
Deportivo to beat Granada – {ODDS:145608806:8/13}
Well beaten by Barcelona on Sunday, Granada have now lost four on the spin and are eight points off safety in La Liga.
That is, in part, down to their atrocious away form.
El Grana have failed to win a single game and picked up just three draws from 15 matches on the road.
Deportivo, meanwhile, have been in decent form at home – losing only twice in 10.
They also beat Barcelona and held Atletico Madrid in their last four, so this should be easy for them.
Real Madrid to beat Leganes – {ODDS:145613979:4/11}
Five straight wins and only one defeat in 14 says all you need to know about Real Madrid’s dominance.
The league leaders have only been beaten twice in La Liga this season and should make light work of Leganes.
The strugglers have only managed two wins from their last 19 and have picked up just two points in their seven matches against the top four.
Simple.
