This weekend, we are looking at teams who are still fighting for something in the season.
The selections for the weekend are below:
Real Sociedad vs Valencia
Real Sociedad have slipped away from the European places of late, failing to win any of their last six games.
Valencia will likely settle for a mid-table finish, but they’ve turned things around of late. They’ve lost just once in their last five.
When the two sides met back in August, a 1-1 draw was played out. At home, Sociedad are unbeaten in the last four meetings.
PREDICTION: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27 Odds
Atletico Madrid vs Girona
Atletico Madrid could climb to third with a victory this weekend as long as Villarreal lose. They’ve won three of their last four matches, with a fourth-place finish looking likely.
Girona remain in the relegation battle after a terrible run of form. They failed to win in their last six, sitting just one point above the bottom three.
The last time these two sides met back in December, Atletico Madrid secured a 3-0 victory.
PREDICTION: Atletico to win either halves at 1.41
Utrecht vs Fortuna Sittard
FC Utrecht head into the final day still chasing the strongest possible finish in a tightly packed battle for the European play-off position.
Fortuna Sittard, meanwhile, continue to play open and chaotic matches. Their 3-2 win over PEC Zwolle last time out ended a difficult spell, but defensive issues remain persistent.
Interestingly, recent meetings between these clubs have been more competitive than the overall historical balance suggests.
PREDICTION: Utrecht to win at 1.48
AZ Alkmaar vs NAC Breda
AZ Alkmaar conclude their Eredivisie campaign at AFAS Stadium, looking to finish a largely stable season on a positive note against relegated NAC Breda.
NAC Breda, meanwhile, already know their fate after relegation was confirmed.
Historically, AZ have also controlled this fixture comfortably in Alkmaar, winning three of the last five meetings overall.
PREDICTION: AZ Alkmar to win at 1.36
Sparta Rotterdam vs Excelsior
The final day of the Eredivisie season brings a Rotterdam derby with contrasting pressures attached to it.
Excelsior, meanwhile, have shown greater attacking life in recent weeks.
The derby element adds unpredictability, but Sparta’s stronger defensive platform and recent dominance in this fixture give them the edge heading into the final afternoon.
PREDICTION: Sparta to win either halves at 1.50
Lille vs Auxerre
A win this weekend will secure a third-place finish for Lille, and they have a strong chance of doing that, considering their form. They are currently unbeaten in the last 13 games.
Auxerre have started to pick up form at an important time as they look to climb away from the relegation zone. They currently sit in 15th place, one point above 16th.
PREDICTION: Lille to win at 1.40
Nice vs Metz
It’s a crucial game for Nice as they look to climb out of the relegation zone. They failed to win in their previous seven matches, failing to win in their last ten games at home.
Thankfully for Nice, Metz are already relegated, and they have been on a dismal run of form. They failed to win any of their last 21 matches.
When the two sides last met back in November, Metz secured one of their few victories, winning 2-1.
PREDICTION: Nice to win at 1.35
Marseille vs Rennes
Marseille could climb up to fifth if they win this weekend. They’re on a disappointing run of form, however, winning just once in their last four.
Rennes could see themselves climb as high as third if results go their way.
When the two sides last met in February in the Coupe de France, Marseille secured a 3-0 victory.
PREDICTION: GG or Over 2.5 Goals at 1.27
COMBINED ODDS = 5F5TQN7
