In Italy last night, Juve conceded a 91st-minute goal to deny us a Win to Nil winner. They bounced back themselves to find a 93rd-minute winner and beat Monza 2-1.

We've come to Portugal today for the Primeira Liga game between 16th-placed Rio Ave and 12th-running Estrela. These are two bottom-half sides but we reckon they've got half a chance of serving up a few goals this afternon.

Luis Freire's Rio Ave are W2-D1-L3 on their own turf this season. The hosts have netted in 5/6 of those games, while conceding in 4/6. Three of the last five have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in tota.

Promoted to the top flight this summer, Estrela have gone well. They're W1-D2-L2 on the road - the two defeats have came against the top two, Benfica and Sporting.

Estrela have netted on each of their last four road trips, most recently going down 3-2 at Sporting. We'll back the outsiders to help get today's game up and over the line too.
