5 Goalscorer Tips Across Europe for the Weekend’s Action - 20/11/21

On Saturday, top of the table PSG host 10th in the table Nantes at the Parc des Princes and come in as firm favourites to win the clash, having earned 34 points from a possible 39, seeing Mauricio Pochettino’s men sit 10 points clear of second in the table Lens.

2018 World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe is who we have chosen in this tip, as the 22-year-old is PSG’s top scorer across all competitions this campaign with seven goals and nine assists in 16 appearances, with a goal per minute ratio of 196, only bettered by the infrequently used Mauro Icardi and Pablo Sarabia, of which the latter is currently on loan at Sporting Lisbon.

In 9 appearances against Nantes, Mbappe has scored six times and assisted three, hence why he is priced at 13/5 to score first against them at the weekend.

The next tip comes from La Liga where Barcelona host Espanyol at the Nou Camp in Xavi’s first game as manager of the club he once played for.

Barca may have started the season relatively slow having picked up 17 points from 12 games, but, Memphis Depay certainly hasn’t been a player to blame, as the summer signing from Lyon has managed eight-goal contributions in 12 games and the Catalonian club will be expected to put on a show in what is a derby match.

Depay comes into Xavi’s reign as Barca boss in good form, having also netted three times in two games for the Netherlands as he inspired Louis van Gaal’s side to qualification for the world cup as he bagged a brace in their 2-2 draw with Montenegro and the second in their 2-0 victory over Norway.

In the German Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen have been going relatively well under former Young Boys manager Gerardo Seoane as they are sixth in the Bundesliga, just one point off Wolfsburg who occupy the final Champions League qualification place.

Leverkusen take on VFL Bochum who are currently 12th in the Bundesliga and have leaked 18 goals in 11 matches, meaning that there is a decent chance of goals flying in at the Bay Arena this weekend.

A player to look out for here is young Germany star Florian Wirtz who is priced at 2/1 to score anytime having found the back of the net four times and created six assists in nine appearances so far this season and has declared himself as fit to play this match, having missed out on November’s internationals with a hip flexor problem.

Tottenham manager Antonio Conte will be taking charge of his first home Premier League match as manager of the Lilywhites when they host Leeds United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.

Spurs may look back to their last home meeting with Spurs in North London, when they comfortably dispatched of the Elland Road club by a 3-0 scoreline last January, as Harry Kane opened the scoring from the penalty spot, before Son Heung-min and Toby Alderweireld completed the scoring inside 50 minutes.

Kane has had a slow start to the Premier League season, but, under a manager of Conte’s calibre, he will be keen to impress, as he did in the international break when he scored seven goals in two matches against Albania and San Marino.

The 28-year-old has scored seven times for his club across all competitions and is priced at 13/2 to score a header against Leeds at the weekend.

The final tip on this list comes from Serie A where top of the table Napoli take on the champions Inter Milan at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona looking to further extend their gap on Simone Inzaghi’s side as the Naples club are already seven points ahead.

This game will be crucial for both sides title aspirations, as AC Milan are also alongside Napoli in second-place on 32 points from 12 matches, only behind to Luciano Spaletti’s side on goal difference, meaning that there is no room for error in this match.

Two players that will be vital to each sides’ chance are Victor Osimhen and Lautaro Martinez. Napoli’s Nigerian striker Osimhen has scored nine goals in 13 appearances across all competitions this season, whilst Martinez who is an Argentina international has fired in five goals in 11 Serie A appearances this campaign.
