Genius tips

West Ham arrive in solid form having won three of their last four matches in all competitions, including a 3-0 victory against Derby and a 4-2 win over Wolves. They have scored in every fixture so far, averaging two goals per game in the Championship. In contrast, Bolton are on a three-game losing streak and conceded four goals at Millwall last time out. With key midfielder J. Sheehan suspended, the visitors have a strong probability of avoiding defeat.

Manchester City have demonstrated solid form with four wins in their last five fixtures, scoring multiple goals in three of those matches. FC Porto enter with five consecutive wins, but the step up in competition is significant, and the hosts are depleted by several absences including J. Bednarek, Samu, and Zaidu. Backing the visitors to avoid defeat provides strong coverage against a resilient Porto side.

Borussia Dortmund or Draw — 78% confidence

Borussia Dortmund hold positive form coming into this fixture, having secured three straight wins against 1899 Hoffenheim, HEBC, and Hamburger SV. Villarreal, by contrast, are winless in four straight matches, conceding three goals at home to Deportivo La Coruna and drawing 2-2 with Atletico Madrid and Racing Santander. Although Dortmund have several defensive players sidelined, including N. Schlotterbeck, R. Bensebaini, and E. Can, their home advantage and attacking rhythm provide a solid platform to take at least a point.

Over 2.5 Goals — 76% confidence

Both sides have consistently participated in high-scoring fixtures in recent weeks. Four of Borussia Dortmund's last five games have produced at least three total goals, driven by a potent attack that has struck ten times across their last three matches. Villarreal have also seen over 2.5 goals land in four of their last five outings, scoring two goals in four of those games while conceding eight across their last four matches. Additionally, their previous Champions League meeting produced four goals in a 4-0 Dortmund victory.

These two calls are about different parts of the match (double chance and total goals), so neither one determines the other. The figure shown is the lower of the two — a combo can never be more likely than its weaker leg.

Newcastle arrive in steady form having gone undefeated across their last five matches, including an away win at Tottenham and a high-scoring victory over West Brom. Millwall have shown volatility with heavy losses to Southampton and Wrexham alongside their wins, and a lengthy list of injuries to key personnel such as M. Luongo and R. Leonard further tilts the balance toward the visitors avoiding defeat in ninety minutes.

Cardiff or Draw — 72% confidence

Cardiff remain unbeaten on home soil in the league this season with two draws, while Stoke City have suffered defeat in both of their away league matches. Historically, Cardiff have avoided defeat in nine of the previous ten clashes against Stoke, with seven of those matches ending in draws. Given Stoke's defensive absentees and poor away record, Cardiff have a solid probability of picking up at least a point.

Yes — 76% confidence

Both sides enter this fixture with consistent scoring records and fragile defenses. Cardiff have scored in every league match this season, averaging 1.5 goals per game both overall and at home, yet they have kept zero clean sheets. Stoke City have also scored in all their league games, but their away defense has conceded seven goals in two trips, an average of 3.5 goals against per match. Furthermore, seven of the last ten head-to-head meetings between these teams have seen both teams find the net.

Watford are unbeaten in their two home Championship matches this season, recording a 2-1 win over Southampton and a 1-1 draw against West Ham. In contrast, Preston have lost both of their away league fixtures and have conceded ten goals across five matches overall. While five of the past ten head-to-head encounters ended level, covering both the home win and the draw aligns well with Preston's away struggles and Watford's resilience at Vicarage Road.

Crystal Palace showed sharp attacking qualities in their recent 3-2 win against Fulham and hold the home advantage in this cup tie, having won three of four historical home matches against Middlesbrough. Although Middlesbrough enter on a four-game unbeaten run and have scored in five consecutive matches, facing higher-tier opposition away from home remains a demanding task. Backing Crystal Palace to win or draw covers the likelihood of a tight knockout battle while accounting for recent team absences.

Bournemouth have found the back of the net in each of their last five matches, demonstrating steady offensive output even while facing demanding opposition like Manchester City and Newcastle. Lincoln have shown good away form in the competition with wins at Blackpool and Bolton, making them capable of keeping the tie competitive. Backing Bournemouth to win or draw accounts for their superior quality at home while respecting Lincoln's recent four-game unbeaten run in all competitions.

Leyton Orient have established a strong home record against Bradford, claiming four victories and one draw in their five previous meetings at this ground. Both sides have displayed solid defensive organisation in this cup run, keeping clean sheets in both of their respective fixtures.

Bergwijn sharing six goals between them, Al-Ittihad possess regular scoring threats against an Al-Fayha backline that has conceded nine goals in five matches.

Al-Ittihad hold an unbeaten league record through five matches, having collected 11 points and scored seven goals. Their historical record against Al-Fayha is commanding, winning all four previous home encounters and remaining undefeated across their past ten meetings overall. With Al-Fayha winless away from home in the league and allowing 1.8 goals per game overall, the home side holds a strong statistical edge across form, venue, and head-to-head metrics.

Head-to-head history heavily favours both teams finding the net, with 70 percent of their last ten meetings producing goals at both ends and an average of 3.4 goals per match. Al-Ahli boast an in-form striker in I. Toney, who has already scored six goals, while Al-Qadisiyah have scored ten goals in five games led by M. Retegui.

AEK Athens have been formidable on home turf, winning their last three home fixtures by scorelines of 4-0, 4-0, and 5-0 without conceding a single goal.
