On this page
After some thrilling mid-week Champions League action, we’re back focusing on the domestic leagues and here at FIRST, we’ve picked out four value plays for this weekend’s action across Europe.

Arne Slot's side, who also boast a game in hand, can go nine points clear of Arsenal before the Gunners face Manchester City on Sunday.
It won't be easy for Liverpool as Bournemouth come into the clash on the back of 4-1 and 5-0 wins against Newcastle and Nottingham Forest respectively.
Slot's men are the most likely winners but we're siding with over 2.5 goals. Liverpool's games are averaging 3.4 goals while Bournemouth's tally is 2.9. There's too much quality on the pitch for this to be a snoozefest!
Leg 2 – Real Madrid to beat Espanyol and over 2.5 goals @ 3/4 [Saturday 8pm]
Real Madrid return to La Liga action with Carlo Ancelotti's side hoping to extend their lead at the top of the table to seven points.
Real Madrid have won their last five while scoring 20 times and it looks like that trend will continue as they face Espanyol who are sitting in the bottom three.
Ancelotti's men will have far too much quality for their opponents, so backing an away win is the move considering they've lost just once on the road.
We're adding in over 2.5 goals as Real Madrid's matches average 3.3 goals and there have been three or more goals in their last 15 outings in all competitions.
Leg 3 – Brentford to beat Tottenham and over 2.5 goals @ 7/5 [Sunday 2pm]
Brentford host Tottenham with Spurs currently 15th in the table and just eight points above the relegation zone.
Tottenham, who are suffering from an injury crisis, have lost their last four matches in a row and six of their last seven league games.
Brentford, meanwhile, have the fourth-best home form and they've scored a league-high 29 times.
Tottenham have lost seven of their 11 away games and Ange Postecoglou's side are there for the taking.
We like the look of a home win and we're adding in over 2.5 goals. There have been three or more goals in nine of Brentford and Tottenham's last 10 games combined.
Leg 4 – Inter Milan draw no bet vs AC Milan @ 33/100 [Sunday 5pm]
We go over to Italy for the final leg of our four-fold. The Milan derby, no less, as AC Milan and Inter clash at San Siro.
Inter are battling with Napoli at the summit of Serie A and lie just three points off the top with a game in hand.
AC Milan face a battle to secure a top-four finish, but the five-point gap to fourth-placed Lazio isn’t insurmountable, especially if Sergio Conceicao's side get a morale-boosting derby victory on Sunday.
Inter are unbeaten on the road (won eight, drawn two) and with this essentially being a home game for them, it's hard to see Simone Inzaghi's side not getting a result.
We're on Inter draw no bet, meaning the selection will be made void if the game finishes level.
FIRST's weekly acca overall odds: 7/1 with Mr.Play
