Birmingham\u2019s away form leaves a lot to be desired and the Owls will be confident of a victory at Hillsborough.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win<\/p>\n<p><strong>REAL BETIS vs Valencia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Neither side heads into this one in great form but I\u2019ll be backing the hosts to win OR draw on Saturday afternoon. Betis have won each of their last two fixtures against Valencia and it will take some turnaround for the visitors to collect the three points here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win OR Draw<\/p>\n<p><strong>STOKE CITY vs Crystal Palace<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Palace have won the last five against Stoke but I\u2019ll be backing the Potters to buck that trend this weekend. Mark Hughes\u2019 men have found their feet at home in recent weeks and they should have too much for the struggling Eagles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win<\/p>\n<p><strong>SUNDERLAND vs Southampton<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Southampton\u2019s league form is worrying and the Black Cats can take full advantage at the Stadium of Light. David Moyes\u2019 side were rampant when beating Palace 4-0 last weekend and Sunderland look well placed to continue their decent run on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win OR Draw<\/p>\n<p><strong>LEEDS UNITED vs Cardiff City<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is impossible to bet against Leeds right now and I\u2019m siding with Garry Monk\u2019s men once again when Cardiff visit. The Whites are in fine form and their recent record against Neil Warnock\u2019s side is excellent; back Leeds to claim a fourth straight win over the Welsh outfit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win<\/p>\n<p><strong>PRESTON NORTH END vs Brentford<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brentford have won the last six head-to-head\u2019s between the two sides but I\u2019ll be backing the hosts to get one over on their Championship rivals here. Preston\u2019s home form is solid and the Bees may struggle to get a point at Deepdale on current form.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win<\/p>\n<p><strong>Queens Park Rangers vs HUDDERSFIELD TOWN<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All signs point towards a Huddersfield victory here. The visitors have won five of their last six Championship games whilst Rangers have picked up all three points just once in 2017. With that in mind, I have to go with an away win.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick: <\/strong>Away win<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reading vs Barnsley<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Had this game taken place three weeks ago, I\u2019d have been all over a Reading win. Barnsley\u2019s recent resurgence has tempted me to back a draw here \u2013 and with both sides drawing in their respective encounters last weekend, another stalemate could be on the cards.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Draw<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-blog-FEBRAURY.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-12999 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-blog-FEBRAURY.png\" alt=\"Pick 15\" width=\"600\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-blog-FEBRAURY.png 600w, https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-blog-FEBRAURY-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-blog-FEBRAURY-108x70.png 108w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liverpool vs Tottenham Hotspur<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Liverpool have struggled since the turn of the year but they tend to raise their game when it matters most of all. Mauricio Pochettino\u2019s men are in great form but would probably settle for a point at Anfield; it is still a very difficult place to go and win.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Draw<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wolverhampton Wanderers vs NEWCASTLE UNITED<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both sides are in decent nick and this is a pretty tough one to call. Wolves have plenty of potential but lack the consistency to challenge whilst Newcastle\u2019s credentials have been called into question in recent weeks. Despite that, I\u2019m backing the Magpies here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Away win<\/p>\n<p><strong>VILLARREAL vs Malaga<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is hard to back either team with any confidence and I\u2019m siding with home advantage in this one. Villarreal have won just one of their last six whilst Malaga are winless in the same spell. The hosts might just about scrape the win in a pretty tame affair.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rennes vs NICE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nice have a solid recent record against Rennes and I fully expect the Ligue 1 challengers to claim another crucial win in the title race. With the visitors battling at the top and Rennes in mid-table, the need for three points is much greater for the away side.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Away win<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sassuolo vs CHIEVO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Three of the last six head-to-head\u2019s have ended in a draw and that looks quite likely again this weekend. However, Chievo are arguably the stronger of the two sides and it wouldn\u2019t be a huge surprise to see the visitors snatch all three points.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Away win OR Draw<\/p>\n<p><strong>SWANSEA CITY vs Leicester City<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Swansea have found their feet since Paul Clement\u2019s appointment and the Welsh side were very unfortunate to lose at Manchester City last weekend. With Leicester failing to inspire confidence, I have to side with the hosts to continue their ascent up the table.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Home win<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lazio vs AC Milan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lazio have been in decent form as of late but Milan will provide a much sterner test than anything they\u2019ve faced since losing to Juventus in January. The visitors have struggled for form at times this season but recent improvement suggests this could end in a draw.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pick:<\/strong> Draw<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kicking off with a big game in the Championship on Friday night, this week\u2019s Pick 15 is not to be missed!
