European soccer clubs are back in action after a lengthy COVID-19 hiatus, providing lots of opportunities for soccer betting. We have predictions and picks for the biggest La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A games this weekend. Only the Spanish soccer league still has its title up for grabs, but there's still plenty of games that offer great soccer odds. 

Here are our top La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A betting predictions for June 26-28:

European Soccer Predictions for June 26-28

Sevilla vs Real Valladolid (Friday, 4 pm ET)

Sevilla are taking it one game – and one point – at a time as they look to remain locked into the final automatic Champions League spot, entering a Friday date with visiting Real Valladolid. Sevilla have drawn each of their previous three matches and four of their last five, remaining four points ahead of fifth-place Getafe (who have drawn three straight themselves). Valladolid are probably safe from relegation, but have just one win in their last six games.

Valladolid are sputtering to the finish line offensively, with one goal over their previous three matches, and could struggle to find their offensive footing against a Sevilla side that has allowed the sixth-fewest goals in La Liga (32 in 31 league matches). Sevilla has also limited Valladolid to just a single goal while winning each of the previous four head-to-head encounters. We don’t see Valladolid doing much on offense, which sets the stage nicely for a home-team shutout.

Pick: Sevilla clean sheet (-138)

 

Augsburg vs RB Leipzig (Saturday, 9:30 am ET)

Leipzig might be without their leading scorer next season, but Timo Werner is still a member of Die Roten Bullen through the remainder of 2019-20 – and he’s in great position to add to his impressive goal total Saturday against host Augsburg. Werner, who ranks second in the Bundesliga with 26 goals, is making his final handful of appearances for Leipzig as he’s set to bolt for the English Premier League next season after having his contract purchased by Chelsea.

Werner would love to make his current and future teammates happy, and is heavily favored to do just that against an Augsburg club that has been mostly responsible on the defensive end since returning from hiatus (six goals against in four games), but dropped a 3-1 decision the last time these teams met on Dec. 21. Werner didn’t score in that one, but you can bet he’ll look to atone for that this time around. It’s bold, but we like the brace prop here.

Pick: Timo Werner 2+ goals (+162)

AC Milan vs Roma (Sunday, 11:15 am ET)

Even in victory, Roma fans have to be frustrated as the sixth-place club in the Serie A standings look to extend their winning streak to four against host AC Milan on Sunday. Despite their recent hot streak, Roma remains six points back of fourth-place Atalanta in the race for the final automatic Champions League spot. AC Milan, meanwhile, might be stuck with a Europa League play-in game as a best-case scenario in what has been a forgettable season.

Oddsmakers have this one virtually even, so we’ll go in a different direction here and lean on the recent history between the clubs. Both teams have scored at least once in each of the previous three head-to-head meetings, while AC Milan have had both sides score in three of their last four games and Roma in three straight. Both sides are in the top half of the league in goal prevention for the season, but we like each team finding the net in this one.

Pick: Both Teams to Score: Yes (-163)
