There are plenty of big games scheduled across the continent this weekend and we have picked out five scorers in games across, England, Spain and Italy.

Brentford have the best home record in the Premier League this season and forward Bryan Mbeumo can add to his tally for the season against Nottingham Forest.

In Spain, Osasuna look like they could move to within five points of Athletic Bilbao thanks to the help of striker Ante Budimir, while Atalanta and Juventus both look like they will pick up comfortable home wins and we have backed a goalscorer in their matches against Empoli and Monza.

Brentford have claimed an incredible 22 points at home from their eight league games under manager Thomas Frank.

They have been helped by the form of forward Mbeumo, who has scored 10 goals in 16 games.

Eight of those goals have come at the Gtech Community Stadium and he faces a Forest defence that have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last six away games.

Newcastle have been inconsistent for the majority of their first 16 games but they will be expected to beat Ipswich on the road on Saturday.

The Magpies have only lost one of their last five, and they have won their previous two games, scoring seven goals in the process.

Sweden international Alexander Isak has scored three in his last four and he should be able to punish Ipswich's leaky defence.

Osasuna are punching above their weight in LaLiga and they will be confident of giving Athletic Bilbao a game on Saturday.

Vicente Moreno's team have only lost one of their last nine in the Spanish top-flight and, while Bilbao are unbeaten in 13 games, they have only won three of their previous nine contests on the road.

Osasuna's Ante Budimir has scored in nine of his team's last 10 games in LaLiga, so he looks good value to maintain that form.

Croatian striker Ante Budimir has already scored ten goals for Osasuna in LaLiga this season.

Serie A leaders Atalanta will be confident of collecting all three points in their contest against Empoli on Sunday.

Gian Piero Gasperini's side have only lost one game since the start of October, losing 3-2 to Real Madrid in the Champions League earlier this month.

Striker Mateo Retegui has scored 14 goals this season for his club in all competitions and, while he has failed to net in his last five, he has only played 90 minutes in one of those games.

Atalanta have scored two or more goals in their last 12 home games in Serie A, so Retegui has every chance of getting himself back on the scoresheet.

Staying with the Italian top-flight and Juventus' Dusan Vlahovic looks a tasty price to net anytime against Monza.

Monza are winless in nine in all competitions, conceding 16 goals through that spell.

That does not bode well with Vlahovic in town, as he has scored in his last three games in all competitions to take his tally to 12 for the season.
