AC Milan v Salernitana

Serie A match at the San Siro, Milan
TV: TNT Sports, Saturday, 7:45pm

Both Teams to Score, No

AC Milan will bring the curtain down on a season that sees them finishing as Serie A runner-ups behind their hated rivals Inter. Salernitana were banished to the Serie A a while ago now but at least they get one final day out at the San Siro before their expulsion from the top tier.

The hosts have won three, drawn one, and lost one over their last five home Serie A clashes, scoring 13 and conceding six, keeping two clean sheets. The away side won just one of their away league games this season and have drawn one and lost four over their last five, failing to score in two of them. Milan should be keeping another clean sheet here.

Christian Pulisic Anytime Goalscorer

Life without Oliver Giroud begins soon for Stefano Pioli’s side and indeed he’s been using Luka Jovic in Giroud’s stead over the last few games so we’re not expecting the Frenchman to be in the starting XI but he should come on.

Christian Pulisic has had an incredible season and for once hasn’t been dogged by injury. The American midfielder scored 12 and assisted seven goals and has scored four over his last five at home in the league. He’ll be eager to add to his tally and we’re getting some decent odds for a player in such red-hot form.

Lyon v PSG

Coupe de France Final at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy, Villeneuve d’Ascq
TV: To be confirmed, Saturday, 8pm

Both Teams to Score

Only Lyon stand in the way of PSG completing their eighth domestic cup double and many wouldn’t give them much of a shot, particularly as they’ve only beaten their Parisian rivals twice over their last 10 meetings in all competitions.

However, they’re in decent form, better than PSG and have won four of their last five matches, scoring 11 while conceding 10. Luis Enrique’s side have won just two of their last five, losing the other three, scoring five goals, and conceding six. Both Teams to Score should be landing with those records.

Kylian Mbappe Anytime Goalscorer

Kylian Mbappe has had yet another stand-out season for his hometown club, scoring 27 league games in 29 appearances, nine domestic cup goals, and eight over his 12 Champions League appearances. We saw in the World Cup Final against Argentina what he’s capable of when goals are needed and he’ll be going all out to score here in an attempt to land one final trophy before he departs Paris for Madrid.

Real Madrid v Betis

La Liga match at the Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid
TV: LaLiga TV, Premier Sports, Saturday, 8pm

Real Madrid to Win & Both Teams to Score

Carlo Ancelotti named a much-changed side for Real’s most recent game in La Liga where they drew 4-4 away to Villarreal. So he has a choice here, does he name a starting XI that are likely to line up against Borussia Dortmund in next weekend’s Chanpions League final, or does he name a rotated side insuring that no injuries are picked up?

We reckon he’s going to do with the latter as the risks are too high. Saying that, Madrid’s second-string players still make for a formidable opponent. Los Blancos have won four and drawn one over their last five, scoring 17 goals while conceding four. On home soil, they’ve won seven on the trot in the league, scoring 22 goals and conceding just two.

Betis have won two, drawn two, and lost one over their last five, while on the road have won two, drawn one, and lost two, scoring eight and conceding eight. All of the top eight La Liga positions are already decided so Betis will remain seventh no matter what happens here, while Real are obviously already champions. Against a makeshift back four, Betis should be getting at least one but the hosts won’t want to give up their winning run easily. Real to Win & Both Teams to Score has the value.
