Picks of the Week (May 4 – May 10)

Match and Selection Odds
Manchester City to beat Brentford and over 2.5 goals 1.68
Leipzig to beat St Pauli 1.32
Lazio vs. Inter Milan – Both Teams to Score 1.75
AC Milan vs. Atalanta – Over 2.5 Goals 1.81
Barcelona vs. Real Madrid – Both Teams to Score 1.33
Total 9.27

Odds are via Sporty Bet and correct at the time of posting.

Tip 1: Manchester City vs. Brentford – Home Win & Over 2.5 Goals

Date: Saturday, May 9, 2026

Justification: Manchester City is in the final sprint for the Premier League title and cannot afford a single point dropped.

Coming off a 3-3 draw with Everton earlier this week, Pep Guardiola will demand a ruthless response at the Etihad.

Brentford is safe from relegation but lacks the defensive depth to stop City’s rotation. Expect a dominant home performance with multiple goals.

Tip 2: RB Leipzig vs. FC St. Pauli – Home Win

Date: Saturday, May 9, 2026

Justification: Leipzig is looking to secure their top-three status in the Bundesliga. St. Pauli has been a brave newcomer this season but has struggled significantly in away fixtures against top-four opposition.

Leipzig’s superior physical intensity and the atmosphere at the Red Bull Arena make this one of the most reliable bankers of the German weekend.

Tip 3: Lazio vs. Inter Milan – Both Teams to Score

Date: Saturday, May 9, 2026

Justification: Inter Milan has already secured the Scudetto, and Lazio have nothing left to fight for, which should make the game at Stadio Olimpico an open one.

While Inter is defensively sound, Lazio has scored in every home game in 2026. Expect a productive game from both sides.

Tip 4: AC Milan vs. Atalanta – Over 2.5 Goals

Date: Sunday, May 10, 2026

Justification: This is a crucial battle for European qualification in Serie A, and it is expected that both Milan and Atalanta will have a go at each other.

Atalanta’s man-marking system often leads to open, end-to-end games against elite opposition. Stats show that this specific fixture has cleared the 2.5-goal margin in 4 of their last 5 meetings.

Tip 5: Barcelona vs. Real Madrid – Both Teams to Score (BTTS)

Date: Sunday, May 10, 2026

Justification: It’s El Clásico at the Spotify Camp Nou. Regardless of the league table, this match is about pride and tactical supremacy.

Barcelona’s aggressive high line under Hansi Flick often invites counter-attacks, while Real Madrid’s frontline of Mbappé and Vinícius Jr. is built for these transitions. In 9 of the last 11 Clásicos, both sides have found the net.

Super Eagles’ coach, Eric Sekou Chelle has hinted that he will unleash another ‘surprise package’ on his team’s next opponent at this year’s ongoing Unity Cup in London, Sports247 reports.

Speaking against the backdrop of Tuesday’s 2-0 victory over Zimbabwe in the competition’s opening match at Charlton Athletic FC’s home ground, The Valley, Chelle said he was impressed with what his array of rookies were able to achieve against The Warriors.

While not singling out any of the lads for particular mention, the Franco-Malian tactician admitted he was surprised by the team’s performance, considering that most of the lads were playing together for the first time.

The former coach of Mali’s national team and MC Oran football club of Algeria further hinted that many of those who featured in Tuesday’s game justified their inclusion in the list of invitees and showed that they can even be counted on to feature in the main Nigerian squad.

With his eyes now fully set on Saturday’s final at the same venue, Chelle inferred that he may not roll out the same starting 11, considering that some of Nigeria’s Grade-A players are also in camp and were rested for the opening game in order to give the rookies their own opportunities to shine.

However, Chelle noted further that there’s a strong likelihood of the next clash being against perennial Unity Cup rivals, Jamaica, who dragged the Eagles into penalties’ shootout before Nigeria could win last year’s final at Brentford’s BTech Stadium also in London.

With that in mind, the gaffer is already thinking of tinkering his squad list for the final but, while keeping hid plans close to his chest, Chelle stressed that the enthusiasm of all the lads in camp has made it possible for him to roll out tactical surprises at will.

Chelle said, “I was truly surprised by the performance of the players against Zimbabwe. I was surprised, because they played as if they had been together for six months or one year.

“In reality, it was the first time, but they showed that we can always make surprises happen in the Unity Cup. We are now looking at the next opponent in the final.”

Sports247 gathered that there is a strong possibility that Wilfred Oyinyen Ndidi will captain the squad on Saturday, while Moses Simon and Jerome Akor Adams line out alongside new rave of the moment, Femi Azeez, in attack.
