Best Tip: Both teams to score

Here is a pair of strong, attacking groups going head-to-head and, as such, we are predicting both of them to score at least 1 goal during the 90 minutes. Can respective bosses Fabien Dagneaux or Patrick Videira find a tactical plan to top their opponent? Recent form statistics and historical head-to-heads, as well as the latest odds from the bookmakers, suggest that's unlikely.
