This all-South African opening panel is short on attacking sides in top gear, with four of the six matches involving teams who have failed to win in their last three outings. Orlando Pirates stand out as the one genuine form side on the card against a struggling Sekhukhune United, while the remaining fixtures look set for tight, low scoring contests.

| M6 | Nottingham Forest | 21:00 | Leeds United | L W W | W W D | X2 Under 2.5 |
Orlando Pirates stand alone as the clear banker on this panel, unbeaten in three against a Sekhukhune United side low on confidence. The rest of the card is defined by winless home sides across South Africa’s domestic fixtures, making away doubles and draws the safer route, with Kruger United vs Durban City the round’s most likely stalemate.
This English and European mix leans towards the road sides, with Hull City, Sheffield United and Celtic Glasgow all unbeaten in their last three matches against hosts carrying recent defeats. Ipswich Town and Bodo Glimt provide the round’s clearest home bankers on the back of perfect recent runs.

Ipswich Town and Bodo Glimt’s perfect recent runs make them the two clearest bankers on this pool, both facing opponents with a loss already in their last three. Hull City and Celtic Glasgow add further value as the round’s strongest away picks, while Blackburn Rovers vs Sheffield United looks the most balanced fixture given both sides remain unbeaten.
This all-Americas card spanning Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Mexico and the United States is headlined by Independiente del Valle and Leon’s perfect recent runs at home, both facing opposition with clear gaps in form. Botafogo SP and Atletico Mineiro’s own steadier away results add further value on a card with several closely matched fixtures in between.
