After a winning Premier League five-fold acca in midweek, FIRST are back with another play for this weekend’s action.

Leg 1 – Both teams to score in Juventus vs AC Milan @ 83/100 [Saturday 5pm]

We were solely focused on Premier League games on Tuesday and Wednesday but this time we’re looking into European action - and first up is Juventus vs AC Milan in Serie A.

Check out the best UK bookmakers to claim free bets worth up to £850!

It's fifth hosting seventh with both sides hoping to close the gap on the top four. Juventus are still unbeaten (won seven, drawn 13) while a win for AC Milan would leave them level on points with Thiago Motta's side.

Instead of picking a winner, there's value in backing both teams to score. It's landed in Juventus and AC Milan's last 10 games combined in all competitions!

Leg 2 – Both teams to score in Atalanta vs Napoli @ 79/100 [Saturday 7:45pm]

Serie A leaders Napoli travel to Atalanta with both sides looking for a statement win in their hunt for the title.

Napoli, who have won their last five games, are three points clear of Inter Milan in second and Atalanta are a further one point back in third.

Atalanta are winless in their last four and while it could be worth siding with Antonio Conte's side, both teams to score is the play again.

Both teams have netted in three of Atalanta's last four league outings while Napoli have scored in their last eight away games in all competitions. There's too much quality on the pitch for us not to see goals. 

Leg 3 – Barcelona to beat Getafe and over 1.5 goals @ 39/50 [Saturday 8pm]

From Italy to Spain now as third-placed Barcelona travel to Getafe in La Liga.

Barcelona have suffered a slight dip in form in the league in recent weeks and they are currently six points off leaders Atletico Madrid.

However, Hansi Flick's side have enjoyed a dominant week with Barcelona beating Real Madrid 5-2 in the Supercopa de Espana final before hammering Real Betis 5-1 in the Copa del Rey.

We’re expecting that trend to continue on Saturday night as they travel to Getafe, who are just three points above the relegation zone.

We're backing an away win as Flick's men should have far too much quality for Getafe and we're also adding in over 1.5 goals. Barcelona's games average a whopping 3.8 goals in La Liga. This should too. 

Leg 4 – Real Madrid to beat Las Palmas and over 2.5 goals @ 8/25 [Sunday 3:15pm]

Finally, we're heading to the Bernabeu as second-placed Real Madrid host Las Palmas in 14th.

Real Madrid will still be hurting from their El Clasico defeat last week and they'll be keen to make a statement against a Las Palmas side who are six points above the bottom three.

It's not worth backing Carlo Ancelotti's side to win at skinny odds of 3/25 so we're adding in over 2.5 goals to partner a home victory.

There have been three or more goals in Real Madrid's last five league games and Las Palmas' matches average 2.8 goals per outing.

FIRST's weekly acca overall odds: 7/1 with Mr.Play
