Bet 1: Back BTTS in AC Milan v Juventus @ 8/11 - KO 17:00 BST

Two of the biggest names in Italian football meet at the San Siro this evening and I have to believe that there will be goals at both ends.

Juventus aren't dominating the domestic scene like they have done over the last few years and they come into this game sitting in third place in Serie A.

Considering their usual rock-solid defence, 10 goals conceded in 10 matches is definitely something that Massimiliano Allegri will be concerned about - especially tonight as seven of them have been shipped in four away outings.

It's quite surprising then that given that stat, Juve, have taken 10 points from a possible 12 on the road. That's because they have racked up 15 goals themselves during that period, and they will again fancy their chances at Milan.

The hosts won 4-1 at Chievo last time out, which was their first victory in five in all competitions. They have failed to find the net in their last two league games on this ground, but prior to that they had been averaging two per match.

Bet 2: Back Under 2.5 Goals in Athletic Bilbao v Barcelona @ 5/4 - KO 19:45 BST

It's not often that I suspect that a Barcelona game will be low-scoring, but this one fits that billing, and odds-against seems like a fair price for under 2.5 for their trip to Bilbao.

Barca have only conceded three times this term, which is quite surprising given the negativity surrounding them after their Super Cup loss to Real Madrid.

Athletic Club have conceded 10 in nine outings which isn't too bad for them, but their supporters must be concerned by the fact that they have only netted the same amount themselves.

José Ángel Ziganda's side drew another blank at Leganes last Sunday in a 1-0 defeat and five of their last six in all competitions on this ground have seen under 2.5 backers collect.

Bet 3: Back Leganes +1 Goal @ 7/5 - KO 21:30 BST

Little, Leganes, have been one of the stories of the season in Spain as after finishing 17th in La Liga last year, they are up in fifth this time around - having taken 17 points from their nine fixtures to date.

Their success has come from defending extremely well, as like Barcelona, they too have only conceded three goals. They are on a run of five clean sheets in the league, and they have won three of their four away matches this term.

A visit to Sevilla is a step up on where they have been so far, but the hosts are struggling at the moment. They did beat a minnow in the Copa del Rey on Tuesday, but prior to that it had been three straight defeats - to an aggregate score of 10-1.

Although Eduardo Berizzo's team have taken 10 points from a possible 12 at home this season, I can't have any faith in them at the moment - especially against a Leganes outfit on such a high.

The Acca pays approximately 17/2
