7:45pm: Juventus v Sassuolo – Dusan Vlahovic to Score and Juventus to Win
The first match in focus is Juventus v Sassuolo in Serie A, which sees both sides kick off their league campaign on Monday night.
Juventus’ run of nine consecutive title wins was halted in the last couple of seasons, with Inter Milan and AC Milan lifting Serie A on the last two occasions.
Massimiliano Allegri will be desperate to get off to a quick start this season, especially with Inter Milan and AC Milan winning their opening fixtures on Saturday.
Juventus host Sassuolo, who finished 11th in Serie A last season, so the home side will be confident of securing three points.
The match odds aren’t even worth considering so we’re adding in Dusan Vlahovic to Score to boost the value.
Vlahovic netted seven goals in 12 starts for Juventus last season and he will be the focal point of Allegri’s side.
The Serbian powerhouse is always a handful and Sassuolo will have to be at the top of their game to stop him. We like Vlahovic to Score and Juventus to Win.

8pm: Liverpool v Crystal Palace – Liverpool to Win and Over 2.5 Goals
Next up, we’re heading to the Premier League, with Liverpool hosting Crystal Palace at Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp’s men didn’t get off to the flying start they would have hoped for in their opening game, with Fulham holding the Reds to a 2-2 draw.
Crystal Palace, meanwhile, lost 2-0 against Arsenal in the opening game of the season. However, the scoreline could have been worse for the Eagles.
Liverpool have won their last 10 fixtures against Palace, scoring 30 goals in that time, and we all know how hard the Reds are to beat at Anfield.
Klopp will get his players fired up for Monday’s clash, especially with Manchester City and Arsenal at the top of the table both sitting on six points after two games.
Liverpool to Win isn’t worth backing so we’re adding in Over 2.5 Goals to boost the price.
Klopp will likely start summer signing Darwin Nunez after the Uruguayan powerhouse impressed as a substitute against Fulham. Nunez alongside Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz is a scary front three. Liverpool to Win and Over 2.5 Goals is our second selection!
8:30pm: Real Betis v Elche – Real Betis to Win and Over 1.5 Goals
Finally, we’re in Spain for Real Betis v Elche in La Liga. The home side looked set to secure a top four finish last season, however, a couple of disappointing results cost them.
As for Elche, they finished 13th in La Liga last season, winning 11 of their 38 league games.
Betis boss Manuel Pellegrini will have his sights set on a quick start in hope of finishing in the top four this season.
Elche can frustrate Betis early on but the home side should have more than enough to get the win.
We’re going with Real Betis to Win and Over 1.5 Goals to get more value as the odds on a home win aren’t enough to get out of bed for.
