Hannover is 3rd with 57 points, battling for promotion, while Preussen Munster is last 18th with only 28 points and a very slim chance of avoiding relegation, so Hannover should be winning this one.

Randers is 10th with 31 points, sitting 1 point above the relegation zone, while Vejle is last 12th with only 18 points and has already been relegated. Randers is undefeated in their last 15 H2H meetings, with 11 wins, and with 2 tough rounds to conclude the season, this is a huge game for the hosts, who should be the far more motivated side and find a way to get all 3 points in the end.

Jiménez earned 10 yellow cards in 30 games played this season. He always plays on the edge and commits fouls, which could see him booked again here.

Muñoz picked up 7 yellow cards this season. He makes a lot of small fouls and often slides into challenges, which tend to be late sometimes, so got to fancy him for a card here.

Adams earned 7 yellow cards in just 21 appearances this season and playing in defensive midfield its his job to make fouls which could again see him booked.

Bournemouth is earning 2.4 cards per game, while Crystal Palace is earning 2.2 cards per game. The referee will be Jones, who is averaging 4.3 cards dealt per game in 16 matches he officiated this season. They combined for 4 cards or more in the last 5 H2H meetings, of which 4 went over this total, so got to like the over on total bookings in this one.

Milan is 3rd with 67 points, looking to secure a place in the Champions League, while Sassuolo is 11th with 46 points and doesn't have much chance to move up or down before the end of the season. Milan won 4 of their last 6 road games, while Sassuolo is 2-2-3 in their last 7 matches. Milan is undefeated in their last 8 visits to Reggio Emilia, with 6 wins, so got to give the visitors an edge and back them to win this one.

Chacarra has been playing very well of late, notching a runner-up finish at the Hero Indian Open when defending his title from last year. He was T9 in Mexico at the Tulum Championship on the Korn Ferry Tour before flying across the globe to China, where he was a solid T33 given the circumstances. He is in fine form, and the more stern test this week near Antalya should serve him well, so he could easily fight for top spots on Sunday afternoon.

Kimsey has been playing some really good golf this year, with 5 top-12 finishes in events he played in, highlighted by T5 at the Magical Kenya Open and T6 last week at the Volvo China Open, where he fired all 4 rounds in the 60s with only 5 bogeys in those 4 rounds. He led the field last week for Driving accuracy and sits th overall for the whole season on the DP World Tour in that same category, so if the putter warms up slightly more, Kimsey could easily be around the top of the leaderboard fighting for the win this week in Turkey.

Kitayama is in very good form of late, with results of T2 at The Genesis Invitational, T18 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and T8 on his last outing at the RBC Heritage among the last 6 events he played in. Kurt won the 3M Open last year, which has similarities to this week's Blue Monster with many water hazards in play. He plays some of his best golf in these smaller-field signature events, so got to see nice value backing him to be right in the mix come Sunday afternoon.
