In France I like the 3 dollars on offer for Lyon to beat Lille, Lyon have only lost 3 times this season and Lille were one of the teams to beat them, however it will be hard to stop the Lyon juggernaut which has just gone from strength to strength. Having already won the competition, there is a query on their motivation, however they are a quality side and should not lose this match.

Another worth looking at is PSG to beat Ajaccio who are particularly weak away from home having won 1 and drawn 4 all season in away fixtures. Add to the equation that they come up against the leading goalscorer and it becomes apparent that this could be the banker bet this week.

Moving over to Italy, and a quick scan down the fixtures reveals Ascoli vs Lazio is rated an odds on draw. Following on from last week, where I tipped both odds on draws, I am tipping that the trend will continue with a draw.

I am trying to decide whether Inter have the motivation and squad to beat Siena, they have a great home record however last week they had 7 first team members out and got beat by Empoli. I'll probably wait until the team is named before having a go on them. Otherwise not much interest in Italy this week.

Spain now and I am looking to back Valencia who have a great home record, as they are in a dogfight with Real Madrid for that coveted 2nd spot. Deportivo @ 2.oo looks good value to beat Bilbao as well.

In England, my tip for Tottenham may seem biased, but I think that credit is due, they have held on to 4th spot this far I don't think they will let it slip away at this late stage of the comp. I will also back Arsenal to beat Wigan, Portsmouth to draw with Liverpool, Fulham and Middlesborough to draw and Man Utd to beat Charlton.
