Premium Tips
Andy Francis leans towards Como, with goals also on the agenda.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Como or draw (Double Chance) and both teams to score | 1/1 | Cesc Fabregas has Como flying, and they head into this on the back of a superb run, winning 4-1 at Genoa and 2-1 at Napoli before a 1-1 draw at Udinese. Crucially, they have scored in every one of those outings and look tough to beat, so the Double Chance safety net of Como or the draw makes real sense on home soil at the Sinigaglia. RB Leipzig carry plenty of attacking threat but shipped three at Werder Bremen recently, showing they can be got at. With both sides finding the net regularly, backing goals at both ends alongside Como avoiding defeat is a smart play. |
| Nicolas Paz, Christopher Nkunku and Antonio Nusa over 0.5 shots on target | 15/4 | This treble backs three natural shooters to test the keeper at least once. Nico Paz is Como’s creative heartbeat, racking up 89 shots on target across 75 appearances, so he is always looking to pull the trigger. Nkunku is a proven marksman for Leipzig with 66 goals and a huge 166 shots on target to his name, a relentless goal threat. Nusa adds pace and directness from the flank, contributing 34 shots on target in his Leipzig outings. All three love to shoot, making the low bar of a single shot on target apiece a confident selection. |
