Stats Picks…
The weekend is here and we have a nice big fixture list to look forward to on home shores, taking in the Premier League, Championship and Scottish Premiership. And our three European leagues are in action, too…
Leagues One & Two are on hold (barring one game) for the FA Cup 2nd Round. After this weekend, the December league schedule cranks into gear up and down the country.
Here are this weekend’s Stats Picks…
MATCH RESULTS
Away wins for Salzburg, Ajax & Inter Milan gave us a 6/1 winning treble in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
Today we have four in-form teams that make the cut on the Match Result stats:
Bayern Munich v Bayer Leverkusen – Bayern Munich to win (@ 2/7)
Germany, Bundesliga – Sat 5.30pm – BT Sport
Since sacking their manager at the start of November, Bayern Munich have won 4 straight games in all competitions – and kept a Clean Sheet each time. That includes a brace of 4-0 wins in the Bundesliga. Leverkusen have just one win from 6 league games, and have been beaten on each of their last 6 trips to Bayern.
Ross County v Celtic – Celtic to win (@ 1/6)
Scottish Premiership, Sun 12pm – Sky Sports
Celtic are the form team in the Scottish Premiership, with 5 wins in a row without conceding a goal. Including the cups, the Bhoys are on a 9-match winning streak. Ross County are 8 league games without a victory, and Celtic have beaten them 4 times in a row.
Lazio v Udinese – Lazio to win (@ 3/10)
Italy, Serie A – Sun 2pm
Lazio are No.1 in the Form table in Serie A, winning each of their last 5 games. They’ve scored 3+ goals in each of their last 4 home games. Udinese have lost 3 of their last 4 away.
Leicester v Everton – Leicester to win (@ 8/13)
Premier League, Sun 4.30pm – Sky Sports
With 5 consecutive wins, Leicester are top of the Form table in the Premier League. They’ve won their last 4 To Nil, including three 2-0 victories in succession. The Foxes have the best defensive record in the division. Everton have lost 4 of their last 5 on the road.
The acca on all four teams to win pays 2/1+.

GOALS
Three games standout in particular on the Over 2.5 Goals stats this weekend:
Brescia v Atalanta – Over 2.5 Goals (@ 1/2)
Italy, Serie A – Sat 2pm
Brescia are bottom of Serie A and 7 of their last 8 games have gone Over 2.5 Goals, including each of their last 5 overall, and 4 out of 5 at home. Atalanta are ranked joint-2nd in the division for Over 2.5 Goals, including 5 out of 7 away games ticking that box.
Hertha Berlin v Borussia Dortmund – Over 2.5 Goals (@ 4/7)
Germany, Bundesliga – Sat 2.30pm
One of the best match-ups of the weekend here, with these two sides joint-2nd in the Bundesliga for Over 2.5 Goals this season (83% records). Hertha Berlin have a 100% home strike-rate with 3+ goals in all 5 games in front of their own fans. Five of Dortmund’s 6 away games have gone Over 2.5 Goals.
