Spurs vs Liverpool, Leipzig vs Bayern, and 3 Other Games Likely to Produce 'Goal Goal' This Weekend

Leagues across Europe will enter another game week as the race for the respective titles starts to take shape.

It is still early days, but many teams will be out to maintain their steady start to the season as the fixture list continues to get more congested.

Barcelona will kickstart a feisty weekend when they play Sevilla on Friday evening before Tottenham and Liverpool put their unbeaten records on the line in North London on Saturday.

With all teams hitting top form in front of goal this season, Sports Brief takes a look at the five games that are likely to produce Goal Goal (both teams to score) outcomes this weekend.

1. Barcelona vs Sevilla - 1.71

Marc Andre Ter Stegen has seemingly lost the superhuman nature he had last season. The German has only kept one clean sheet in the league so far, conceding eight goals in the process. Xavi Hernandez's side have been forced to outscore opponents this season to claim maximum points.

Sevilla, on the other hand, haven't made the best of starts, but scoring hasn't been an issue for the serial Europa League winners. Save for the goalless draw last weekend against Osasuna, the Rojiblancos have scored in every game this season - the final result notwithstanding.

2. Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool - 1.38

That this will be an interesting game for neutrals - that goes without saying. But for punters, the opportunity to reap from both teams scoring looks like a very viable possibility.

Spurs have scored in every game under new manager, Ange Postecoglou, keeping two clean sheets in the process. They will come up against a side that scores at will, with Mohamed Salah pulling the strings for the Reds.

However, Jurgen Klopp's side have been forced to come from behind on multiple occasions this season and with the danger Heung-min Son and James Maddison possess, a clean sheet looks like a forgone conclusion for them this weekend.

3. Aston Villa vs Brighton - 1.39

Aston Villa has blown hot and cold this season despite that eye-catching transfer window. They will come up against 'fellow wannabees' when they host Brighton in the early kickoff.

Apart from the 3-0 mauling at Liverpool, Unai Emery's boys have scored in every game so far this season. The Seagulls, meanwhile, haven't kept a clean sheet in the league since May 14 last season.

The odds will be on both teams to cancel out each other with the ammunition they possess in front of goal.

4. RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munich - 1.4

With only one point separating them at the top, this is a game you don't want to sleep on. Bayern will be put to seek revenge for their heavy Super Cup defeat.

The visitors are firing from all corners, with Mathys Tel joining frontmen, Leroy Sane and Harry Kane among the goals for the Bundesliga champions.

Perfectly set-up teams like Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Monchengladbach have managed to breach them this season - a fete Leipzig is most likely to replicate, considering how well Xavi Simmons has settled into the side.

5. Atalanta vs Juventus - 1.68

Heading into this game, Atalanta have kept five clean sheets in all competitions this season. They will face a different test altogether when they come up against Juventus, who are working their way back to Italy's royalty.

The Old Lady have scored in every game this season, with Federico Chiesa and Dusan Vlahovic particularly proving to be live wires.

Atalanta's goals are meanwhile scattered in the team, with Teun Koopmeiners, Ademola Lookman, and Gianluca Scammacca all having two goals apiece.
