There's a huge clash in the Championship tonight as Leicester City host big-spending Birmingham City at the King Power.
Two divisions separated these sides last term but they now both have ambitions to be playing Premier League football next season.
Birmingham have spent big in a bid to secure successive promotions and this clash with the relegated Foxes will give us a better idea of how well prepared they are for a shot at glory.
Leicester City vs Birmingham City top betting tips
Both teams have made decent starts in the Championship, with Birmingham banking seven points from three games and Leicester sitting just one point behind them.
The squads look pretty evenly matched so I'm expecting a tight game and the half-time draw appeals at 21/20 with BoyleSports.
The midfield battle will be key and Foxes boss Martin Cifuentes will be looking for Boubakary Soumare to impose himself on the game.
The powerhouse picked up eight yellows last term but has yet to go into the book this season. A card could be overdue and that pays 13/5 at BoyleSports.
Hamburg vs St Pauli
The most exciting fixture tonight comes in Germany, where the weekend Bundesliga fixtures kick off with a Hamburg derby.
With both teams spending a lot of time in the second tier recently, this is the first time the two rivals have faced off in the Bundesliga since 2011.
That has raised the stakes even higher so sparks so fly between the bitter rivals Volksparkstadion.
Both teams made decent starts in the league last weekend, with St Pauli drawing 3-3 at Dortmund and Hamburg grinding out a 0-0 draw on the road in Monchengladbach.
Hamburg have won the last three derbies at home and that's probably why BoyleSports make them 5/4 favourites tonight, with St Pauli at 9/5.
Both keepers were busy last weekend, making four saves in their Bundesliga openers. A double on Hamburg's Daniel Fernandez making over 1.5 saves and opposite number Nikola Vaslij making over 2.5 saves pays 6/4 at Bet365.
The corner count can rack up as two local rivals slug it out and over 10.5 flag kicks appeals at 6/5 with Betfred.
Valencia vs Getafe
Valencia finished last season superbly after Carlos Corberan took charge and will be looking to push on in the new campaign to avoid another flirtation with relegation.
But the fallen giants haven't started particularly well in La Liga, taking just a point from their first two games, so Corberan will be desperate for a win when Getafe come calling tonight.
Getafe have got off to a flier with wins on the road at Celta Vigo and Sevilla so they will fancy their chances at the Mestalla.
Their record away to Valencia isn't good, though, with Getafe losing on their last four visits, including a 3-0 battering May. That makes me think Corberan's side might just edge it tonight and they're 6/5 for the win at BoyleSports.
Games at the Mestalla haven't been thrillers of late, with over 2.5 goals coming up in just one of Valencia's last six at home. That makes under 2.5 goals likely tonight but the odds are terrible at just 2/5.
Going for cards offers more value, with 18 yellows flashed across the two meetings last term. Over ?/? cards pays ?/? at ??????????.
