We begin in Brazil's Campeonato as Flamengo look set to get back to winning ways against the struggling, Coritiba.
The hosts had been making a charge up the table courtesy of four straight victories in June and July, but their momentum has been checked over the last fortnight as they were beaten here by Gremio, before going on to draw at Cruzeiro and then being held again on Wednesday by Palmeiras.
Their opponents today are nowhere near the level of those three teams however and the visitors come into the game on the back of a 4-0 thrashing at Ponte Preta during the week. That was their third defeat in four and fifth in seven league matches.
This is an ideal opportunity for Flamengo to get back on track and add to their three home victories this season.
Bet 2: Internacional (AWAY) @ 2.1 (11/10)
One division below the Campeonato is Serie B and Internacional are bidding to make their stay in the second tier as short as possible.
'The Red' are currently fifth in the table, level on points with CRB in fourth, with the top four earning promotion. They have only been beaten three times so far this year, but too many draws have hindered them slightly.
Interestingly, most of those draws have come in front of their own fans and on the road it's four wins from seven attempts - including recent successes at Brasil de Pelotas and Ceara.
A trip to Vila Nova won't be a walk in the park as Mazola Júnior's side are seventh in the table, but they have now lost their last two games and won just one of their last five.
Bet 3: New York City v Chicago Fire (Over 2.5 goals) @ 1.57 (4/7)
To North America now as the goals are set to flow in the MLS fixture at Yankee Stadium between New York City and Chicago Fire.
Powered on by the goals of David Villa, New York City have netted an incredible 38 goals in 20 games. They sit third in the Eastern Conference and they could be higher if they tightened up at the back.
Patrick Vieira's men have conceded 26 times so far this term and that has led to their matches averaging 3.2 goals each time. An overwhelming 15 of their 20 have seen this selection land - including their last eight at home.
The visitors this evening are Chicago Fire and they are prone to high-scoring affairs too. Their games are averaging 2.95 goals per 90 minutes and 13 of their 19 have ended with the ball in the net on three occasions or more - including their four most recent outings.
Bet 4: DC United v Houston Dynamo (Under 2.5 goals) @ 2.0 (1/1)
One MLS match where I doubt that we'll see many goals is the fixture between DC United and Houston Dynamo at the Robert F Kennedy Memorial Stadium.
The hosts finished fourth in the Eastern Conference in 2016 but they are rock bottom this time around and are on a run of five straight defeats in all competitions.
Putting the ball in the net has been a real issue for the Black and Red, as they've scored only 17 goals, which is the lowest total out of the 22 MLS clubs.
The Texans are enjoying a much better campaign as they are in third place in the Western Conference. They are yet to win on their travels this year, but they won't get much of a better opportunity than this.
DC United have failed to score in four of their last five at home and with Houston having fired six blanks in 10 away matches this season, the under looks like pretty decent value at even money.
