Borussia Monchengladbach v Mainz – Draw
Bundesliga match at Borussia-Park, Monchengladbach
TV: Sky Sports Mix
Borussia Monchengladbach are Mainz are fully focused on Bundesliga action for the remainder of the campaign as they both aim for European qualification for 2025/26.
Mainz in 4th spot, are just four points ahead of hosts Monchengladbach in 8th, ahead of this key game. Both sides have lost just once in their last five in league action, and it could be difficult to split them on Friday night, and a draw looks a solid option.
Cagliari v Genoa – Under 2.5 goals
Serie A match at the Sardegna Arena, Cagliari
TV: OneFootball
Cagliari host Genoa in a mid-table Serie A clash with both teams out of form. The home side have won just one of their last six games in league action with Genoa only faring slightly better with two wins from six.
Genoa have probably done enough to avoid a relegation battle in the run-in, but Cagliari are still in danger, just three points above the drop zone.
With their respective form dropping, goals have been in short supply for the pair, with Cagliari scoring just four in their last six outings, and Genoa netting five in five.
Toulouse v Monaco: Both teams to score: Yes
Ligue 1 match at the Stadium de Toulouse, Toulouse
TV: Ligue 1 Pass
Monaco head to Toulouse looking to chase down the top three in Ligue 1 in the fight for Champions League spots with the hosts in 8th.
Toulouse recently ended a five-game winless run, which has dented their own European aspirations, with back-to-back league victories.
Monaco’s playoff exit in this season’s Champions League came in the middle of a poor overall run and they have won just three of their last five league games – all at home.
With Monaco looking a little unpredictable, Toulouse will make it difficult for them, and the home side have scored eight goals in their last two games.
Hearts v Dundee – Hearts to win
Scottish Cup match at Tynecastle Park, Edinburgh
TV: Premier Sports 1
Hearts’ form has transformed since the start of 2025 with just two defeats in 11 after a dismal first half of the campaign at Tynecastle. That has dragged them away from the foot of the Scottish Premiership table and they get a shot at cup semi final on Friday as Dundee land in Edinburgh.
The visitors have lost five and drawn one of their last six league games, so the resurgent hosts will be confident of cruising into the last four.
Norwich City v Oxford – Josh Sargent to score
EFL Championship match at Carrow Road, Norwich
TV: Sky Sports Football
Norwich need to get points on the board to revive their flagging promotion hopes in the season run-in. The Canaries have won just once in their last five in league action, but they have lost just once at home in five EFL Championship clashes since the start of 2025.
The hosts will be confident of getting that vital win with Oxford drifting in mid-table and winless in seven.
Borja Sainz’s goals have dried up at the wrong time for Norwich, as despite still being joint top scorer in the league with 15, the Spaniard has not scored a league goal since November.
However, USA international Josh Sargent has brilliantly grabbed the reins with seven goals in his last seven appearances – so he is a strong shout to find the net.
