1. Lyon v Auxerre — Ligue 1, 18:00
Lyon go in search of a fourth straight home win over an Auxerre side yet to find any rhythm in the new campaign.
Lyon — recent results
- Lyon 1-1 Le Havre (Ligue 1)
- Toulouse 0-2 Lyon (Ligue 1)
- Lyon 1-2 Fenerbahce (Europe)
- Lyon 3-0 Sparta Prague (Europe)
- Fenerbahce 1-1 Lyon (Europe)
Auxerre — recent results
- Auxerre 1-3 Angers (Ligue 1)
- Lens 5-2 Auxerre (Ligue 1)
Julien Duranville is out for the hosts with a muscle injury, while summer departure Ainsley Maitland-Niles has been replaced at right-back by Zachary Athekame. Auxerre have shipped eight goals in their opening two league matches and are further weakened by long-term injuries to Bryan Okoh and Assane Diousse.
Prediction: Lyon 2-0 Auxerre. Lyon's strong home record and Auxerre's leaky defence point firmly one way, even if the visitors should find a way to score.
2. Genoa v Como — Serie A, 19:45
Genoa are still searching for their first league points of the season, while Como arrive full of confidence after a summer of eye-catching signings.
Genoa — recent results
- Genoa 1-0 Ascoli (Coppa Italia)
- Genoa 0-2 Napoli (Serie A)
- Genoa 0-1 Lazio (Serie A)
Como — recent results
- Como 1-1 Udinese (Serie A)
- Como 2-1 Napoli (Serie A)
Genoa's last league win came back in April, and they are without Lorenzo Venturino through injury, though Stephan El Shaarawy is back at the club following his re-signing. Como have added Moise Kean and goalkeeper Robert Sanchez over the summer, and forward Tasos Douvikas has scored in five consecutive away matches.
Prediction: Genoa 1-2 Como. Como's summer investment gives them the edge in quality, though a misfiring Genoa side should have enough pride at stake to get on the scoresheet at home.
3. Ipswich Town v Liverpool — Premier League, 20:00
Liverpool head to Portman Road still chasing their first league win of the season, against an Ipswich side that pushed Manchester United close before a heavy defeat.
Ipswich Town — recent results
- Manchester United 5-2 Ipswich Town (L)
- Ipswich Town 3-1 Leicester City (W)
- Ipswich Town 2-1 Sunderland (W)
Liverpool — recent results
- Liverpool 2-2 Nottingham Forest (D)
- Newcastle United 2-2 Liverpool (D)
Ipswich have a lengthy fitness list including Jaden Philogene-Bidace, Azor Matusiwa and Jack Taylor. Liverpool's injury list is longer still — Hugo Ekitike (Achilles), Giovanni Leoni and Conor Bradley (both knee) are all long-term absentees, with Joe Gomez and Federico Chiesa also unavailable.
