It's two from Serie A and one from the Premier League for Paul Robinson and his Daily Acca today and it begins at the Vitality Stadium. Here are his selections:

- Back BTTS in Bournemouth v Man United @ 3/4
- Back Under 2.5 Goals in Napoli v Udinese @ 13/8
- Back Torino @ 2/1

The Acca pays approximately 13/1

United to go on the front foot at Bournemouth

Bet 1: Back BTTS in Bournemouth v Man United @ 3/4 - KO 19:45 BST

The pressure is on Manchester United to get a result at Bournemouth tonight as they were dreadful in their 1-0 loss at Old Trafford to West Brom on Sunday and they have a big game coming up against Spurs on Saturday in the FA Cup semi-finals.

Jose Mourinho has been vocal about dropping players who aren't performing so nearly all of his outfield players will be aiming to impress here. They simply have to take the game to their opponents and I just can't see them firing another blank.

The Cherries have a long litany of high-scoring fixtures in front of their own fans and this selection has landed in all of their last eight in the league at home.

Don't count on too many goals in Naples

Bet 2: Back Under 2.5 Goals in Napoli v Udinese @ 13/8 - KO 19:45 BST

Napoli are still chasing the Serie A title but it looks likely that again they will be thwarted by Juventus. The Old Lady are six points clear at the top as Napoli have faltered to win just two of their last six matches.

The hosts have been struggling in front of goal of late and that has led to three of their last five ending with two goals or fewer. Even at home they haven't netted more than twice in any of their last four, and that includes narrow 1-0 wins over lower half teams, SPAL and Genoa.

Udinese are dropping like a stone as they have lost nine matches on the trot. They are in 13th, but with only a six point gap to the relegation zone, they can't afford to rest on their laurels.

Scoring goals has been the issue for them too as even in defeat, they haven't had a team put more than two past them since a 3-0 loss to Lazio way back in January, and in the and in the 11 games since, seven have gone under 2.5.

Torino to turn over Milan

Bet 3: Back Torino @ 2/1 - KO 19:45 BST

Torino are ending their campaign in good form as they put four straight losses behind them to go on to take 10 points from their last four outings. One of those victories came at home to Inter, so it's not like they have just been beating poor teams.

Their opponents this evening are AC Milan and they are in a battle with Fiorentina, Atalanta, Sampdoria and even Torino themselves for sixth place and guaranteed qualification to next year's Europa League.

Genarao Gattuso's men haven't won in four however and their last three - which were all at the San Siro - ended in draws. They actually have a decent away record, but they have lost recently at Juventus and Arsenal, and Torino have won five of their last seven at home - four of which were to nil.
