On February 27, there are English League Cup Final, Italian League Championship and Italy Championship matches. We have chosen the best picks for the best odds in our accumulator tip!

Chelsea vs Liverpool: Opponents won't risk

Chelsea have a six-match winning streak. Along the way, the Blues have won the Club World Cup, picked up a couple of victories in the EPL, also advanced to the next round in the FA Cup. They beat Lille 2-0 in the Champions League last week in the last 16. Chelsea beat Tottenham 3-0 on aggregate in the EFL Cup semi-final.

Liverpool come into the final after nine wins in a row. They have won games the EPL, the EFL Cup, the FA Cup and the Champions League. In the last leg, the Reds beat Inter 2-0. As for the EFL Cup semi-final, Liverpool beat Arsenal 2-0 on aggregate.

We don't think it's necessary to single out a favourite in this match - it's a trivial three-way tie. With a trophy at stake and both teams' defences being very good, it is understandable that no one will risk going on the attack from the first minute.

• Bet: Total Under (2.5)

Lazio vs Napoli: Expect an exchange of goals

Lazio have only one win in their last five matches - a 3-0 victory over Bologna. The Romans also drew 1-1 with Udinese, they lost 0-4 to AC Milan in the Italian Cup, and they also played two games against Porto in the Europa League. In the two encounters, they put up a decent fight but lost by one goal (3-4) on aggregate. After this round, Lazio are sixth in Serie A with 43 points, but they can easily lose their place in the Europa League zone.

Napoli have also picked up only one win in their last five meetings (2-0 against Venice). Since then, the Neapolitans have drawn three times against Inter, Cagliari and Barcelona in the Europa League. In the return leg against the Catalans, however, Napoli played poorly and were relegated with a total of 3-5. They are sitting in third place in the Italian league table with 54 points behind top seed AC Milan and have a good chance of scudetto.

We want to start our betting on goals in this meeting. We expect them to be numerous - the opponents are very good offensively and score decently, and both teams need three points like clockwork. In general, we are betting on an exchange of goals.

• Bet: Both teams to score

Barcelona vs Athletic: The Catalans will secure their place in the top 4

Barcelona are making good progress as they have won four of their last six matches and drawn two. In this period, the Catalans beat Atletico (4-2), crushed Valencia (4-1), and beat Napoli 5-3 on aggregate in the Europa League. Barcelona are fourth in the Spanish table with 42 points, but opponents from below are breathing down their necks.

Athletic are also in high gear, with only one defeat in their last seven matches. They only lost to Mallorca (2-3), but they made amends last time round when they thrashed Real Sociedad 4-0. Athletic are eighth in the table, with 37 points, and, in theory, have a chance of breaking into the Eurocup zone.

The bookmakers' experts reckon Barcelona are favourites, and we agree with them. The Catalans will be on a high after their victory in Naples, and they will want to please their fans at the Camp Nou. Athletic, of course, are good, but mostly on the home field - they perform noticeably worse on the road. We suggest a clean win for the home side as a bet.
