Luton v Middlesbrough

These two sides could meet again down the line in the playoffs, but there's unlikely to be much between them when they clash at Kenilworth Road on Monday. Luton have lost just one of their last 17 games at home, while Boro make the trip to Bedfordshire off the back of two impressive wins over Hull and Norwich.

Atalanta v Roma

Atalanta's home form has held them back this season, winning just six of their 14 matches at the Gewiss Stadium, and they are worth opposing when hosting Jose Mourinho's Roma, who have won four of their last five games and kept a clean sheet in four of the last six Serie A outings.

Bordeaux v Grenoble

Bordeaux can move into the promotion places in Ligue 2 with a win over Grenoble and that should be enough motivation to chalk up a fourth win in their last five home outings.

Guimaraes v Sporting

Sporting will have been disappointed to have been eliminated from the Europa League by Juventus last week but should put that behind them with a fifth away win in their last six road assignments in the Portuguese top flight. Guimaraes' season is threatening to peter out after five games without a win and they appear vulnerable.
