Chloe Beresford says: "Two clubs with some interesting shared history go head-to-head on Friday night as Simone Inzaghi - one of the most successful coaches in Lazio history - brings his Inter side to Rome to take on the Biancocelesti.

"There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Inter's last nine games, and the Nerazzurri have won each of their last six league games, but face a tough challenge at the Stadio Olimpico.

"Indeed, Lazio have lost just three of their last 33 home matches, and will be looking to star man Sergej Milinkovic-Savic to lead the way. The Serbia international loves playing Inter, and has scored five goals in his last seven encounters with them.

"With that in mind, the tip here is to backSergej Milinkovic-Savic to score anytime."

Chloe's bet: Sergej Milinkovic-Savic to score any time v Inter @ 4.57/2

Luton v Sheffield United: Hatters capable of blunting the Blades

Luton 3.211/5 v Sheffield United 2.546/4, the Draw 3.3512/5

Mark O'Haire says: "Luton and Sheffield United have met just four times in league competition over the past 25 years and the Blades have proven strong operators against Town, posting W2-D2-L0 in those four head-to-heads, conceding just a solitary strike.

"However, the two most recent meetings at Kenilworth Road have each ended in low-scoring draws (0-0 and 1-1). Luton have W1-D2-L2 thus far, although Nathan Jones' troops have performed better than results have suggested.

"The Hatters have fired in more shots from inside the penalty box than their opposition in four of those fixtures, winning the non-penalty Expected Goals (npxG) battle on three occasions. Town have W12-D8-L5 at home since the start of last term.

"Sheff Utd are top of the tree (W3-D1-L1) and the Blades are unbeaten since the opening weekend. Even so, the visitors' most standout displays have arrived at their Bramall Lane base, and Paul Heckingbottom's guests have returned just W5-D5-L5 on their travels during his stewardship. United were second-best at both Watford and Middlesbrough."

Mark's bet: Back Luton Double Chance and Under 3.5 Goals @ 1.865/6

Friday Football Tips: All about Aspas as Celta face Girona

Girona 2.8815/8 v Celta Vigo 2.915/8; the Draw 3.259/4

Paul Higham is focused on seeing a game full of goals and cards, and an impact from Iago Aspas as Celta Vigo visit Girona.

Paul says: "I'm taking the 6/5 on the over 2.5 goals here for Friday's Bet Builder and adding in over 2.5 cards for Celta Vigo at 4/9.

"Celta have seen seven cards in two games, both of those at home, and in their first away trip they're in for a scrap against Girona so should comfortably make that mark.

"And finally, I can't mention a Celta Vigo game without including Iago Aspas - the former Liverpool flop who has become a goal-scoring hero at Celta.

"He's scored in both games at the start of his eighth season back at Celta to make it 120 La Liga goals in his second spell, which is a magnificent effort."

Paul's bet: Back over 2.5 goals, over 2.5 Celta Vigo cards & Aspas 2+ shots on target v Girona at around 8.88/1

Patrice Evra: Ronaldo leaving "best for United"

Betfair Ambassador and Manchester United legend Patrice Evra talks all things to do with his former club and weighs in on his old teammate's future...

"The Cristiano Ronaldo saga is another issue (for United). Is he staying? Is he leaving? It's created a lot of confusion with fans. He's still here, the transfer window isn't closed but I think, personally knowing Cristiano, if he doesn't play he would like to leave. I think this would be the best for him and for United."

Premier League Predictions: Brighton's underperformance at Amex

Sporting Life Infogol's Jake Osgathorpe uses the Infogol expected goals (xG) model to highlight key trends ahead of this weekend's Premier League fixtures...

"Brighton are a brilliant team, Graham Potter is a brilliant coach, and if they sorted their home form out, the Seagulls would be a European contender.

"Under Potter, Brighton have played 39 home games and won just nine. They have won the xG battle 27 times in that span, so have out-created their opponents in 69% of home games since Potter's arrival."

Premier League Predictions: Opta Stats Number Crunch MD4

Adams last scored in consecutive league games in February, with the second of those games coming against Manchester United. Adams also scored twice more in the League Cup earlier this week."
