Spezia vs Verona – Verona to win (90 mins)

In a straight shootout for Serie A survival, Spezia and Hellas Verona contest a relegation playoff at Sassuolo's Mapei Stadium on Sunday.

After the teams finished level on points after 38 matches of a gruelling season, they must now fight it out to decide who will retain their top-flight status and who will drop down into Serie B.

Only once has a Serie A relegation playoff been decided by a penalty shootout - in 1995, Genoa were demoted on spot-kicks - and in the event of a tie at the end of 90 minutes this Sunday, the game would go straight to penalties without extra time.

Neither team has been sharp enough in the final third this season, so after a low-scoring draw in Sassuolo but we fancy Verona to edge this game.

FC Twente vs Sparta Rotterdam – FC Twente (90 mins)

FC Twente and Sparta Rotterdam will renew hostilities at De Grolsch Veste for the second leg of their Eredivisie European playoff final on Sunday afternoon.

The two sides played out an eventful 1-1 draw in Rotterdam on Thursday, meaning that we are no closer to knowing which club will qualify for next season's Europa Conference League.

Twente head into the second leg on an eight-game unbeaten streak, having ended the regular season with a run of four straight wins before sealing back-to-back victories over Heerenveen to reach the European playoff final.

When you look at the bigger picture, the Pride of the East have lost just one of their previous 14 encounters, picking up nine victories while scoring at least three goals on nine occasions.

It is also worth noting that Twente have been immense at De Grolsch Veste this season, suffering a solitary defeat in 22 home games across all competitions, so they will be confident of completing the job this weekend.

Following Thursday's stalemate, FC Twente and Sparta Rotterdam have now played out three draws this season, although the Tukkers could – and probably should – have defeated De Kasteelheren last time out.

Sunday's showdown looks destined to be another closely-fought battle, but we expect Twente to edge Sparta this time around, as the Pride of the East have won 16 of their 22 home games this term.

Fenerbahce vs Basaksehir – Fenerbahce win & over 2.5 goals

An all-capital contest in Sunday's Turkish Cup final will see established giants Fenerbahce meet upstarts Istanbul Basaksehir at Gursel Aksel Stadyumu.

The teams meet in Goztepe after finishing second and fifth respectively in this season's Super Lig, with a decade having passed since Fener lifted the trophy; Basaksehir have never before won the national cup.

A week after losing their final league fixture of the campaign 3-0 to fierce foes Galatasaray, to finish some eight points behind in second place, Fenerbahce have a chance of redemption on Sunday evening, when they seek an end to their 10-year drought in the Turkish Cup.

Though the pressure is piled high on their shoulders, Fenerbahce have a clear advantage in terms of both attacking options and squad depth, which could prove the difference in Goztepe.

Having also seen off Basaksehir twice in the past few months, they will know what it takes to secure a win that brings silverware back to the club after several years.
