Out of the 17 matches, SportPesa’s blog has a look at a select few that feature in this weekend’s Mega Jackpot.

WATFORD vs LEEDS

Both these teams are battling to remain in the top flight by the end of the season and a win is necessary for either side.

The home team are 19th on the log with 22 points, while Leeds are in 16th place with 30.

The visitors are unbeaten in three games but Watford are coming into the game on the back of a 2-0 defeat to title-chasing Liverpool.

Leeds recorded a 1-0 win over Watford when the two teams locked horns at Elland Road earlier this season.

Emmanuel Dennis will return to the starting XI to boost the hosts, while a return for Kalvin Phillips is also on the cards for Leeds.

A draw could be the most likely outcome.

STRASBOURG vs LYON

Strasbourg have the chance to jump into the top three of Ligue 1 if they can record a victory against Lyon this Sunday.

The home team are unbeaten in 8 league games and are in fourth place with 51 points.

Lyon come into the game after a nervy 3-2 win against Angers left them in 9th place with 45 points.

Lyon came out as 3-1 winners in the reverse fixture in September and will be looking to repeat the same success.

Moussa Dembele has scored 12 goals in the Ligue 1 this season and will lead the visitors attacking line.

The hosts are however tipped to come out on top, despite it being a very tricky encounter.

BRENTFORD vs WEST HAM

Brentford pulled off a remarkable 4-1 shock demolition of Chelsea to move them nine points clear of the relegation zone.

Meanwhile, the Hammers beat Everton 2-1 to move them to sixth place with 51 points.

Jarrod Bowen is back and in the goals for David Moyes’ side and this will be a huge boost for the visiting team.

The hosts were 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture at the London Stadium earlier in the season.

The away team are favorites in this game but we cannot write off Brentford, they could indeed battle it out for a draw.

NORWICH CITY vs BURNLEY

The Canaries are without a win in their last 8 matches and remain rooted to the bottom of the table with 18 points after 30 games.

It seems unlikely that they will survive the axe and are now playing for pride before the dreaded return to the Championship.

The visiting Burnley are also fighting relegation but boosted their chances with a hard-fought 3-2 win against Everton last time out.

Sean Dyche is likey to choose the same starting XI from that win as they look to make it back to back league wins.

Despite their horrid run of form, the home team could actually get something from this game, possibly a draw at best.

ELCHE vs REAL SOCIEDAD

Sociedad are fresh off a laborious 1-0 victory over Espanyol that left them in sixth place with 51 points.

Elche, on the other hand, were beaten 2-1 by Athletic Bilbao, making it only one win in their last five matches.

They are six points off the drop zone now to give a sense of safety but they cannot afford any complacency going forward.

Both teams are expected to score in this game but a draw could be the most likely outcome.
