Monday specials: Accumulator Tip for March 31

Prepare for sensational football action on Monday across European teams as they continue the battle for league glory. Hapoel Beer Sheva and Maccabi Tel Aviv are fighting for the top spot in the championship round, and the outcome of this game is very important to both teams. Lazio will take on Torino, and Verona will also take on Parma. Let's analyze the teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion on the upcoming game.

Verona vs Parma

Both teams are having a tough time in the Italian Serie A and this game is an opportunity for both teams to get a positive outcome and steer off the relegation zone. Verona secured a shocking 0-1 victory against Udinese in their last league game while Parma is without a positive outcome in their last three league games. The first time they met, Verona stole the show in what ended in a 2-3 scoreline. Both teams came all out for goals in that game and the game produced a total of 5 goals. We envisage a similar outcome here with both teams finding the net. 

• Bet: At least one team to score over 1.5 goals

Lazio vs Torino

Lazio suffered their second-biggest defeat of the season to Bologna last week after that sad 0-6 defeat to Inter early on in the season. Lazio was totally outclassed by Bologna in that game and they’ll be hoping to secure a positive outcome against a very tactical and defensive Torino side on Monday. Torino on the other hand is unbeaten in their last four league games and the last time they lost a league game was also against Bologna. Lazio has emerged victorious in their last three meetings against Torino and we think this trend might not continue given Torino’s current impressive form and Lazio’s poor form of late. My prediction for this game is a win or draw for Lazio. 

• Bet: TO (9) corners

Hapoel Beer Sheva vs Maccabi Tel Aviv

Hapoel Beer Sheva and Maccabi Tel Aviv will clash at the Toto Turner Stadium for the second game in the Championship round. Both teams scaled through the regular season but the fight for the Championship glory now deepens as they have only a few games left for the Israel Champions to be crowned. Hapoel Beer Sheva sits pretty at the top of the league table but is only a point away from second-placed Maccabi Tel Aviv who were the Israeli Champions last season and are looking to make a back-to-back win. Maccabi Tel Aviv on the other hand is closely watching Beer Sheva and Monday remains the perfect time for Tel Aviv to take the lead over Beer Sheva. I expect Monday's encounter to be even more daunting as both teams cannot afford to lose, not at this critical point. Both teams will find the net or the game will end in a full-time draw.

• Bet: TO 2.5 goals
