Sevilla are without a clean sheet in their last eight games and both teams have scored in their last four outings, while there have been goals at both ends in three of Alaves’ last four fixtures.

Alvaro Arbeloa has recovered from a disastrous start to lead Real Madrid to five wins from his last six games. They have won four successive home games but conceded in three of them, while the in-form Real Sociedad have found the net in 12 successive games.

Bayer Leverkusen have scored in all ten Bundesliga home games this season and both teams have scored in four of their last six matches. Leverkusen have failed to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last ten games. St Pauli’s last three matches have also featured goals at both ends, but the visitors have also lost their last three away games.

Blackpool and Plymouth Argyle both concede far too regularly to trust either defence. Plymouth have scored in 12 straight games but have also let in goals in seven on the bounce. Blackpool have shipped 44 in 30 and are without a clean sheet in three. Five of Blackpool’s last seven and Plymouth’s last three have landed BTTS, and this has all the same ingredients.
