Sporting Braga have an outside shot at winning the league title. However, the club will be happy with finishing third and qualifying for the Champions League qualification rounds.

Sporting Braga took 15 points from the last six matches, scoring 11 times. The Bishops are on a three-match winning streak in the Primeira.

Sporting CP vs Estoril

Our betting tip is to select a Sporting CP win at full-time. The Lions are chasing third place and must win to keep pace with Sporting Braga.
Hellas Verona vs Fiorentina
Hellas Verona are two points off safety in Serie A. The Gialloblu went unbeaten in four of their last five matches in Serie A, throwing themselves a lifeline in the race for survival.
Fiorentina are not safe from relegation danger. La Viola could get sucked into a relegation fight, as they go into Monday’s match a mere eight points above the bottom three. Monday’s match in Verona can be classified as a six-point relegation battle.
Hellas took eight points from the last 18 points on offer. They are still struggling to score goals, as just five were scored in the last six matches. Fiorentina are bottom of the Serie A form table. They picked up just two points from the last six matches. La Viola scored only three goals during that time.
Three consecutive matches between these teams finished with under 2.5 goals. Hellas Verona saw under 2.5 goals in their last eight Serie A matches. Five of Fiorentina’s last six matches in Serie A ended with fewer than 2.5 goals. Our betting tip is to pick under 2.5 goals.
Lazio vs Sampdoria
Lazio are unbeaten in five of their last six matches in all competitions versus Sampdoria. The Biancocelesti will hope playing at home will see them win on Monday night.
Lazio moved to fifth last weekend after a 2-0 win away to Salernitana. The Biancocelesti are chasing AC Milan in the race for the final top-four place. Two points separate Milan and Lazio in the standings.
Sampdoria are 19th in the standings and headed to Serie B. The team is on a six-match winless streak. Just two points were picked up in Sampdoria’s last six matches. The team scored three goals and conceded five times in the last six matches.
Lazio picked up 11 points from the last 18 points on offer. They outscored their opponents 10-4. Lazio have a home record of 6W-3D-3L this season, while Samp have won just two games on the road this term. They are winless in three straight away matches.
Our betting tips prediction is for Lazio to win at full-time against a woeful Sampdoria. The win could take Lazio back into the top four depending on Milan’s result against Atalanta.
Swansea City vs Rotherham
Swansea City start the weekend with an outside shot at making the promotion playoffs. The Swans are eight points off the final promotion playoff place and could pull closer in the chase with a win over Rotherham and results elsewhere going their way.
Rotherham are 20th in the Championship and staring relegation in the face. The Millers start the weekend five points off the bottom three. By the time Rotherham kick off in Wales on Monday night, they could be 21st and/or just two points off the relegation zone.
Swansea are in poor form in the Championship. The Swans took just four points from the last six matches and are on a two-match losing streak. Rotherham are fresh off a win over Sunderland by a score of 2-1.
The teams drew 1-1 earlier this season, as neither side could get the upper hand. Five of Swansea’s last six matches ended with over 1.5 goals. Three straight Rotherham matches had over 1.5 goals. Our betting tips prediction is for more than 1.5 goals.
