European soccer is back in full swing with the EPL, La Liga and Serie A all in action this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pre-weekend narrative: <\/strong>Tottenham looks like a serious contender to make noise at the top of the Premier League table. The undefeated Hotspur host Bournemouth on Saturday. On Sunday, Inter Milan looks to build on a dominant start while taking on Udinese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out this weekend’s best European soccer predictions for games beginning on Aug. 30, 2025, featuring a pick on Real Madrid vs. Mallorca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soccer predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tottenham vs. Bournemouth<\/strong> (Aug. 30, 10 a.m. ET)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best bet: Tottenham to win (-134)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hotspur have been thriving so far under new manager Thomas Frank. Fans have boasted about the new tactics and rightfully so. Tottenham is 2-0 with two clean sheets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the wins was over Manchester City, 2-0, and the side sits at a +5 goal differential It’s a very impressive start that I don’t see slowing down at home against Bournemouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The away side has a 1-1 record with the win coming against 0-2 Wolverhampton. Even then, Bournemouth scraped by with a one-goal win despite the Wolves going down to 10 men early in the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The club’s also seen the lowest of lows. On Matchday 1, the Cherries were blown out at home, 4-0, by Man City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This feels like a battle between teams on different tiers. Tottenham should control this match at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key stat:<\/strong> Through two matches, the Hotspur have the highest average match rating in the EPL, per Fotmob (7.35).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La Liga best bet<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Matchup: Real Madrid vs. Mallorca<\/strong> (Aug. 30, 3:30 p.m. ET)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read Madrid over 2.5 goals (-112):<\/strong> Bernabeu Stadium will be rocking this weekend with Los Blancos returning home after a 3-0 road win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Madrid has yet to concede this season, but I want to tap into that offensive potential we saw on Matchday 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The side had 26 shot attempts (10 on target) against Oviedo. Kylian Mbappe led the way, scoring a brace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mallorca played a top-tier opponent in Barcelona already this season and got stifled 3-0. It had the benefit of playing at home for that game, which won’t be the case on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite scoring four goals through two matches, Madrid has actually left production on the table, missing three big chances (tied for third most in La Liga).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serie A prediction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Matchup: Inter Milan vs. Udinese<\/strong> (Aug. 31, 2:45 p.m. ET)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inter Milan halftime\/fulltime (-112):<\/strong> Milan looked dominant in its Serie A debut, battering Torino 5-0 last Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just take a look at its offensive stats from the match:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
