Analysis

Barcelona are top with a perfect 5W-0D-0L record (15 pts), averaging 4.2 goals per game and having scored 21 while conceding just 4. Racing Santander are 10th with 2W-1D-2L, coming off a 2-1 home win over Alavés but facing a huge step up in class at Camp Nou.

Analysis

Sparta hold a perfect historical record against Ararat-Armenia and carry more continental pedigree, with Josimar Alcocer in red-hot form (4 goals in his last 6 appearances). It's not one-sided — Sparta have lost 4 of their last 6 away games in all competitions and go into this without suspended defender Adam Sevinsky — but Ararat's home form (2 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses in their last 6) doesn't suggest an upset is likely.

Analysis

Both sides are short on goals right now: Omonia have drawn a blank in three of their last four games and conceded only twice in that span, while Celta are winless through their first six La Liga matches and have failed to score more than once in any of them. Neither side looks capable of a high-scoring afternoon in Nicosia.

Analysis

Milan are unbeaten in 4 Serie A games (2W 2D) and have scored 11 while conceding 6 across their last five. Benfica are red-hot with 5 straight wins and 7 unbeaten across all competitions, scoring 15 and conceding only 3 in that span, with Prestianni scoring in three straight games. Both sides' recent matches lean heavily toward goals at both ends (Milan 4/5 over 2.5 and BTTS in 4/5; Benfica over 2.5 in all 5 recent games).

Analysis

Leverkusen have scored at least twice in every game across their last four, while Celje have lost 4 of their last 5 across all competitions and are now managerless after Vitor Campelos departed just days before this trip to the BayArena.

Analysis

Hapoel have conceded 7 goals across their last 3 matches, including a 4-1 home defeat to Maccabi Tel Aviv, and are further weakened by the suspension of Djibril Diop and injuries to forward Igor Zlatanovic and others. Dinamo arrive in healthier form and with more squad depth, and Hapoel are also playing this fixture away from home in Bucharest rather than at their own ground.

Analysis

Olympiacos are without El Kaabi (broken cheekbone), Joel Roca (shoulder) and suspended Konstantinos Fortounis, weakening a defence that just lost 1-0 to OFI Crete, while Jagiellonia have shown they can score against strong opposition in Europa League qualifying (past Rangers) even amid inconsistent domestic form.

Analysis

Anderlecht's last two home European games have each produced three goals, and striker Danylo Sikan has scored 5 goals in 6 Europa League appearances. Lyon are unbeaten in three, including a 2-2 draw with PSG, and have scored in every one of their last five matches even with winger Julien Duranville sidelined.

Analysis

Rennes have failed to keep a clean sheet through their unbeaten start to the season despite the results, and Sturm Graz still have Otar Kiteishvili (15 league goals last season) to lean on at home even while missing Leon Grgic and Emran Soglo to injury.

Analysis

AZ have scored 17 goals in 6 Eredivisie matches but have conceded 5 in their last 3, and Sunderland have scored in every one of their 4 competitive matches this season, albeit only once each time. AZ's prolific, increasingly leaky attack against a Sunderland side that consistently finds the net points to goals at both ends.
