These games each test a strong visitor against a home side with a live second supply. Stoke's compact shape and Inter's pressure can interrupt the first pass, but Blackburn and Feyenoord have recently reached dangerous receivers after midfield recoveries. The next ball and the box touch will shape both contests.
Blackburn can find Cantwell between Stoke's midfield and back three, then bring Guðjohnsen into a finishing position. Stoke's recent away wins came while Derby and Bolton created plenty of shots, and Galbraith's new suspension removes a recent supplier who played the full Preston match. McGlynn remains a direct Stoke outlet, but Cantwell's home delivery and Guðjohnsen's recent finishing give Blackburn the stronger route to the decisive home touch. I'm siding with Blackburn.
Feyenoord's Hadj Moussa carried and finished against PSV, with Valente and Ferri offering another receiving chain and aerial second ball. Inter can supply through Çalhanoğlu and Dimarco, but Bastoni is absent and their recent goals include less repeatable final contacts. I expect Feyenoord's home response to keep the score tight through a second delivery. That's why I'm siding with Feyenoord.
