Scott Thornton's Weekend Both Teams To Score 15/1 Acca

Sunderland has the chance to get one over on their wealthy rivals on Saturday. It promises to be a fantastic atmosphere at the Stadium of Light and the home side will want to put on a show despite being the underdogs.

Newcastle have struggled in their recent away matches. While they should have the quality to come through this test, their defence will no doubt be put under pressure. Eddie Howe’s side are conceding an average of two goals per game across their last 10 away matches in all conceptions. They have picked up just one win during that run.

Gillingham beat Charlton in the last round, and they’ve been rewarded with a home clash against a Premier League side. Stephen Clemence’s side are competing for a place in the playoffs in League Two and should enjoy the pressure being on the opposition here. The home crowd will be right behind them, and they will no doubt look to take the and to a side that is struggling in England’s top flight.

Sheffield United are yet to win an away match this season. They have lost seven of their nine games in the road and are conceding 2.5 goals per game in the process. Those matches were against Premier League opposition, but those defensive fragilities could come to fore here.

Sassuolo have struggled at home this season. They have won just two of their nine Serie A matches in front of their own fans, but they have found their scoring touch of late. Unfortunately for Sassuolo, they are also conceding a few and both teams have scored in their last four home matches in the league.

Both sides have found the net in Fiorentina’s last five visits to this ground. In fact, this bet has won in the last eight head-to-heads. Over that period, there has been an average of 3.33 goals per game.

Empoli are slugging it out in the relegation zone and have struggled for goals so far this season. However, they are taking on a shaky Milan defence and will need to throw caution to the wind at some stage. Both teams have scored the last six times that Empoli have hosted the Rossoneri and there has been an average of 4.17 goals in those matches.

Both teams have scored in seven of Milan’s nine away matches in Serie A this season. Those matches are averaging 3.67 goals per game.

These teams squared off in the league just a few weeks ago and this bet won. Arsenal has home advantage this time around and they will be looking to bounce back after consecutive defeats. The Gunners have scored in 13 of their 14 home matches in all competitions this season with an average of 2.5 per game and they will pose a threat here.

Liverpool’s attack are in fine form. They put four past Newcastle at the weekend and have failed to score in just one of their 29 games across all competitions this season. They are scoring an average of 2.41 goals per game in this campaign and both teams have scored in their last four matches against Arsenal.
