Alexander Sorloth has scored in Real Sociedad's last three LaLiga games

There is more action across Europe's top divisions this weekend and we have picked out two games from Italy's Serie A, two from France's Ligue 1 and a solitary selection in Spain's LaLiga to form a five-fold acca.

Saturday, 5pm

Bet 1: Back both teams to score in Lecce vs AC Milan at 10/11

AC Milan have been better performers at the San Siro than on their travels this season with only four of their 11 Serie A victories this term having come on the road.

Fans of Milan have certainly been entertained this campaign with both teams scoring in 13 of their 17 league assignments.

Stefano Pioli's side have had a frustrating start to the year, conceding two late goals to draw 2-2 with Roma in their last league game before suffering a 1-0 defeat to Torino in the Coppa Italia round of 16.

Backing them against Lecce, who have beaten Lazio and Atalanta recently, could be risky so both teams to score looks the best bet in this one.

Saturday, 8pm

Bet 2: Real Sociedad to beat Athletic Bilbao at 7/5

Athletic Bilbao are winless in their last five away games in LaLiga, last winning a league match on the road against Elche back in September.

Since returning from the World Cup break, Real Sociedad have won all four of their matches in the Copa del Rey and LaLiga without conceding a goal.

Basque derbies are always fierce affairs but there is added weight to this weekend's clash between Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao with both clubs chasing top-four spots in LaLiga.

Real Sociedad, however, should have the edge given the form of Alexander Sorloth and Athletic Bilbao's poor record on the road.

Sunday, 11.30am

Bet 3: Lazio to beat Sassuolo at 23/20

Lazio have the third-best defensive record in Serie A

Only Juventus (12) have kept more clean sheets in Serie A this season than Lazio (nine).

Sassuolo have lost all three of their matches since returning from the World Cup break against Inter, Sampdoria and Fiorentina.

They have had a miserable time of it in Serie A since returning from the World Cup break and could endure another defeat at the hands of Lazio on Sunday.

Lazio were held by Empoli last time out but are in contention for the European places in Italy's top flight and are worth backing to get the win.

Sunday, 2pm

Bet 4: Toulouse to beat Brest at 19/20

Toulouse have made a strong start to 2023, winning all three of their matches and scoring 14 goals in the process.

Brest, meanwhile, find themselves in the relegation zone with only three wins recorded in 18 Ligue 1 assignments.

With four teams set to go down in Ligue 1 this season, Brest are at risk of relegation and they could suffer more misery away to Toulouse on Sunday.

Toulouse look in great nick right now, having thrashed Lannion 7-1 in the French Cup before beating Auxerre 5-0 in the league last time out.

Sunday, 4.05pm

Bet 5: Monaco to beat Ajaccio at 2/5

Monaco are in the mix for the European places in Ligue 1 with ten wins picked up from 18 games.

As for Ajaccio, they head into this contest having lost their first two league games of 2023 without scoring.

Ajaccio are hovering above the relegation zone in Ligue 1 and could be in more trouble after this weekend's clash.

Monaco drew 2-2 away to Lorient last time out but are going well in Ligue 1, having won four of their five games before that stalemate, and they should come out on top in this one.
