The big games just keep on coming in the UEFA Nations League and there's a blockbuster battle of the blues tonight as France host Italy.
It has been steady if unspectacular so far for new French coach Zinedine Zidane, with 1-0 wins over Turkey and Belgium in his first two games.
But the opposite has been true for Roberto Mancini's return to the Azzurri hotseat, with a 2-0 home loss to the Belgians followed by a 4-1 romp in Istanbul.
France vs Italy top betting tips
These nations are European superpowers, with six World Cups between them, but it's France who are very much in the ascendancy now.
The Italians haven't even qualified for the last three World Cups, although they did win Euro 2020, so it's not a big surprise to see them as big as 19/4 for a win in Paris.
France are just 9/20 at Bet365, even though they're missing star man Kylian Mbappe, and they should have too much firepower for Mancini's side.
Italy created heaps of chances against Belgium, though, and scored four times in Turkey, so I'm going to combine a French win with BTTS at 13/8 with Bet365.
Belgium vs Turkey
The other game in Group A1 tonight should also be a cracker as Belgium take on Turkey in Brussels.
It has been a traumatic start to the Nations League for the Turks, with a narrow home loss to the French followed by that thrashing from Italy.
Belgium, on the other hand, have looked pretty decent under new boss Mark van Bommel and will fancy their chances with home advantage tonight.
Bet365 make the Red Devils 8/15 hot favourites so it's tricky finding value but backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time boosts the odds to 5/4.
The Turks have collected one red and five yellows across their last two outings so backing them at -1 in the card handicap could also pay off at 7/5.
Ukraine vs Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland have made a promising start to their Nations League campaign, banking four points from games with Georgia and Hungary.
They've yet to concede and that says a lot about how hard the Irish are to break down under Michael O'Neill.
Next up is a clash with Ukraine and they've made an identical start, with a 0-0 draw and a 1-0 win in their clashes with the same two opponents.
That suggests goals might be at a premium tonight and Bet365 price under 2.5 strikes at just 8/15.
The Ukrainians are 9/10 favourites, despite this ‘home' game being on neutral territory, and they do have the stronger squad.
That class should eventually tell so I'm going to back most goals to come after the break at a best 5/4. A Ukraine win to nil also appeals at 7/4 with Bet365.
