There is a glut of footballing action to come this weekend as every side across Europe is looking to gain a key win, whether a side is involved in a cup game or they are continuing their campaign in the league. With this in mind, we have found a number of very interesting bets for you to take a look at.
Saturday 27th January
14:30 BST RB Leipzig vs Hamburg
While Bayern Munich are currently enjoying a massive gap at the top between themselves and the chasing pack, the places behind them are hotly contested. RB Leipzig are currently sixth in the league with 31 points after picking up nine wins and four draws. They will know that a win on Saturday will see them in the mix with the rest of the teams, and they could be second in the league by the end of the weekend. Hamburg, on the other hand, have been awful this season, picking up just 15 points, meaning they are five short of safety. They have lost their last four games in a row, meaning that confidence will be very low.
Tip: Home win @ 1/2
19:45 Chievo vs Juventus
Chievo have been doing fairly well this season but they are still in danger of becoming embroiled in a relegation battle this campaign. After 21 games they have won just five matches, while in their last five they have picked up just one point. Juventus on the other hand have been superb, winning five of their last five, and losing just two games this season. With Juve looking to keep pace on Napoli at the top, do not expect the away side to take anything for granted.
Tip: Away win @ 1/3
19:45 Villarreal vs Real Sociedad
It is turning out to be another very impressive season for Villarreal as they look to take an unlikely Champions League place for their next campaign. After 20 games they have picked up 34 points meaning they are only one point behind Real Madrid in fourth. Their opponents in Real Sociedad have only won six games this season, losing their last three in a row. They need a confidence booster with a relegation battle looming, but they will be tested thoroughly by their hosts on Saturday.
Tip: Home win @ 21/20
Sunday 28th January
17:30 Sevilla vs Getafe
Sevilla are looking to arrest a slump in form that has seen them lose ground on the sides above them. While they have won 10 games this season, they have lost eight and drawn twice and they have scored 26 goals and conceded 28 times. While they have struggled to press on this season, they are still formidable at home. Getafe have been exceptionally good this season and they are looking to hunt down their next opponents. After 20 games they have picked up 27 points, meaning they are only five behind Sevilla. While they have been impressive, an away trip to play Sevilla is always very tough.
Tip: Home win @ 1/2
19:45 Chelsea vs Newcastle
There is a huge FA Cup clash on Sunday as Chelsea host Newcastle. Chelsea have been in good form of late and they are unbeaten in their last five. The Blues were knocked out of the EFL Cup in midweek and it means that they will be desperate to maintain their trophy charge in the FA Cup. Newcastle have struggled massively this year and need a distraction from the league. After 24 games they have won just six times, while they have only won once in their last five. The Magpies are struggling, but a win over Chelsea in any competition would see their confidence skyrocket.
Tip: Home win @ 4/9
