WhoScored Tipster: The Weekend's Top Tips

 

Spring is coming, so why not take the chance to go away, even in this week's accumulator? There are plenty of options for away wins over a wide range of odds but all in all, if you're look for big figures, then La Liga is the place for you this week. 

 

LIKELY BETS 

 

QPR vs Tottenham: AWAY WIN @ 1.80 

 

With the League Cup and Europa League now beyond them, we can expect a special reaction from Pochettino's men. Loftus Road is a good place to start for Tottenham, as QPR have only won 1 game in their last 11, while Spurs have won 3 of their last 5 away matches in the Premier League. Ramsey's side have a number problems, with one factor particularly likely to affect them. They are labelled as 'very weak' according to WhoScored's characteristics when 'defending counter attacks', something that could prove to be a real issue against Spurs. 

 

Udinese vs Torino: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE @ 1.90 

 

It's been a bad period for Udinese, casting doubts over Stramaccioni's future (or present). Their motivation added to Torino's agenda being set on the upcoming Zenit fixture will influence the game, although the hosts' defence lately is just too shaky to guarantee a clean sheet, and both teams have scored in 4 of Torino's last 5 Serie A matches.

PSG vs Lens: HOME WIN (-1 HANDICAP) @ 1.61 

 

This match sees second placed PSG face second-from-bottom Lens. Seven of PSG's last 10 wins at home have been at least a 2-goal margin, while Lens' last 3 away defeats were all by at least a 2-goal deficit. Needless to say that the WhoScored.com match forecast shows a long list of ways in which PSG are likely to score. 

 

TEMPTING BETS 

 

Sampdoria vs Cagliari: HOME WIN @ 1.85 

 

Sampdoria finally returned to winning ways after 6 games last time out and it's no coincidence that it happened exactly when Samuel Eto'o and Luis Muriel seemed to gel. Cagliari are currently stuck on a 5-match winless run, 4 of which have resulted in defeat, while Albin Ekdal’s recent injury has added to their woes. The WhoScored match forecast suggests several different situations throughout the game, but only one regarding goals, which favours Sampdoria. 

 

Augsburg vs Wolfsburg: AWAY WIN @ 2.10 

 

Wolfsburg just cannot be stop, and neither can Bas Dost. The club currently have the longest undefeated streak in Bundesliga, meanwhile Augsburg are dropping away from Champions League spots having failed to win any of their last 4 games. The WhoScored match forecast lists a number of ways Wolfsburg will score.

 

Toulouse vs Olympique Marseille: AWAY WIN @ 2.40 

 

No wins in last 4 for Marseille, but fortunately for Marcelo Bielsa’s side, none of the top 5 clubs have more than 1 win in their last 4 league games. Bielsa has a tough task ahead of him, but league leaders Lyon sit only 4 points ahead of Marseille and they need a win now if they are to maintain their title challenge. If you believe in Loco, then overcoming an 18th-placed Toulouse side is a bet one can’t miss. 

 

LONGSHOT BETS 

 

Deportivo La Coruna vs Sevilla: AWAY WIN @ 2.05 

 

This is the last chance for Sevilla to mount a charge for the Champions League. Valencia are flying 7 points ahead, so the game at the Riazor could be the point of no return if they are to be defeated. Deportivo are not really a reliable side; the WhoScored database highlights 9 weaknesses for the Galicians, 6 of which relate to their defending.

Granada vs Malaga: AWAY WIN @ 2.60 

 

Few would have expected Malaga to be back in the fight to get into Europe, while Granada's fall from grace is unrelenting. They are now second-from-bottom only because Cordoba - in last place - are even worse. Granada have a shocking home record: just 1 win in 11 games since late August. 

 

Mainz vs Borussia Mönchengladbach: AWAY WIN @ 2.75 

 

Gladbach are climbing the table and now have a 4 point cushion between them and fourth place. The WhoScored Match Forecast predicts only 1 scoring situation; 'Very Likely' that Borussia will score as a result of a through ball.
