Premier League: Arsenal 0-2 Aston Villa
- HT/FT: Half of Arsenal's home games against top-half teams since 05/06 have ended with a D/W (7/26) or L/D (6/26) and it is over half (6/16 D/W & 4/16 L/D) against the non-Big Four sides in the sample. Under O'Neill, Villa have had four W/Ds on the road in 22 games at top-half sides (two D/Ls) — with two W/Ds in nine games at Big Four teams.

Premier League: WBA 0-3 Chelsea
- Chelsea clean sheet: Chelsea's dominance is largely thanks to a defensive record that has seen them keep clean sheets in over 70% (27/38) at non-Big Four sides since 06/07 and in 15 of 20 at promoted teams (including their last eight in a row).

Championship: Birmingham 3-2 Charlton
- -1.5 goals, -2.5 goals: Birmingham have faltered recently but their games this season have been consistently low scoring. Six of the Blues' eight home matches have contained either one or no goals and seven have had fewer than three. In all league games, 12 of their 16 matches have had fewer than three goals - which has also been the case in 20 of Charlton's last 26 on the road (10/26 fewer than two goals).

Championship: Southampton 1-2 Wolves (HT 1-2)
- Match Outcome, HT/FT: Wolves have the best 20-game away record in the league (W10-D5-L5) as well as the most W/Ws (seven) while Southampton have the worst home stats (W5-D5-L10) over that period and the most L/Ls (also seven). Wolves have now moved six points clear at the top of the table, having won 12 of their last 15 matches and five of their last seven away. Southampton have lost four of their eight at home this season.

League Two: Rochdale 1-1 Macclesfield (HT 0-0)
- 1st half outcome, HT/FT: Since the start of last season, 59% of Macclesfield's away games have been tied at the interval (17/30). This matches up nicely with Rochdale's record of going into the break level in half of their home games over a similar period (14/28). When this is combined with the home team's overall match outcome record, the chance of a D/W double result is increased. They have won 11 of their last 15 at the Spotland Stadium, with six D/Ws.

Serie B: Livorno 0-0 Treviso
- HT/FT: Livorno have climbed to within two points of the top after starting to turn draws into victories. They are unbeaten at home following their relegation and have won their last three, all by the double result. Treviso are without a win on the road this season (W0-D2-L4) and last season failed to win until their last two trips of the season. In total, since the start of last season, they have gone W2-D9-L16 with 13 L/Ls and have scored just 11 goals in their last 23 on the road. Against top-half sides they are W0-D2-L8 with seven L/Ls since the start of last season.

Ligue 1: Le Havre 1-3 PSG
- -1.5 goals, -2.5 goals: PSG's away games under Paul Le Guen have been very low-scoring, with two thirds (24/36) featuring no more than two goals and nearly half (17/36) one or none. It is even more pronounced against teams in the bottom-half; 14 of 17 seeing at most two goals (including all four this season) and nine of those having fewer than two. Le Havre's games against top-half sides have been generally low on goals as well, with five of seven overall - and three of four at home - yielding at most two goals (3/7 one or none, 3/4 at the Stade Jules Deschaseaux).

Ligue 1: Nancy 1-1 Caen
- Match outcome, correct score: Nancy have lost only once at the Stade Marcel Picot since the start of last season but their form has dropped off of late. After winning seven of their first eight at home last season, they have gone W8-D9-L1, including five draws out of seven this season. Six of their 10 draws since the start of last season have been 1-1 — second only to Sochaux's 10. Caen picked up just their second away win of 2008 in their last away game and have a W4-D10-L11 record on the road since their promotion. They have drawn three of their six this season, two by a 1-1 score line and their six away 1-1s in the last year is the most in the division.

Ligue 1: Lille 3-0 Saint-Etienne (HT 2-0)
- 1st half outcome, HT/FT: Lille's propensity to open the scoring at home have led them to nine first-half wins in their last 15 at home (trailing only Lyon's and Marseille's 10) while Saint-Etienne have lost a league-worst 13 first halves on the road since the start of last season — including five of six so far this season. Lille have failed to convert just one of their last 37 half-time leads at home into wins, recording nine W/Ws in their 17 home matches dating back to this fixture last season, while les Verts have recorded five L/Ls already this season.
