Unfortunately for fans heading to Brunton Park on Boxing Day, we do not see this one being a classic and think goals will come at a bit of premium. The lack of goalscoring threat by the hosts means that they are unlikely to put their opposition to the sword and, given that four of Bradford’s last five league matches have finished with less than 2.5 goals scored, we think backing the same result again is the way to go.

Sampdoria face a vital clash this weekend, as they need to pull off a result against Udinese to try and claw themselves away from relegation danger.

FK Gorodeya is the underdog at their stadium against Dinamo Minsk this time. This game will probably be a tight one and with few goals scored. FK Gorodeya is well underrated at the odds of 4.75 as their fair odds seem to be 3.80, so this is another game with a great value on the home win. The Draw at 3.4 would be an options of value too as I guess it's quite possible. Dinamo Minsk is overrated by the bookies at 1.80 as their fair odds seem to be 2.17. So my choice goes to AH +5 for Gorodeya.

Setubal’s home games produced an average of 0.57 goals and none of the host’s home games have produced over 2.5 goals and only 14% have seen both teams score, all of which adds weight to our prediction for a low-scoring affair this weekend. Setubal have only scored three goals at home this season but have only conceded one goal in front of their own fans while Aves have conceded 21 goals on the road compared to the 8 they have conceded at home, so it is clear to see where the visitors’ problems lie away from home.
Shahin Bushehr against Pars Janoobi Jam here, meeting of the Iranian Football League that is played tomorrow morning at 12:30.

The guests are the strongest team here and I think they will not miss this match because the hosts are from several games without a win so they will try to clinch the victory. The home team have drawn 3 of their last 6 matches and I think they will try another here.
