Aston Villa v Sheffield United

Aston Villa's winning streak at home in the Premier League now stands at 15 and they should continue that fine run against basement boys Sheffield United, who have lost seven of their eight away matches this term.

Cambridge v Exeter

Neil Harris has enjoyed an unbeaten start to life as Cambridge boss after drawing with Charlton and beating Blackpool in his opening pair of fixtures and, with the U's having won five of their last six home matches, he could be set to add another three points. His team host Exeter, who have lost five of their last seven away games including a 7-0 drubbing at Portsmouth.

Crewe v Barrow

Barrow are second in League Two and, having won their last four away matches, they should be backed to get the better of Crewe, who have failed to win any of their last four matches despite playing bottom-six sides Grimsby and Sutton in that period.

Salernitana v Milan

Milan recorded an exceptional 2-1 win over Newcastle in their last away match and they should have no issues in taking on Serie A basement boys Salernitana, who have lost their last three matches by an aggregate score of 9-2.
