I've not been too succesful on Saturday's recently and I put that down to the sheer volume of football that there is to consider and while I will continue to look at most of the fixtures, I will be looking to focus on a smaller group of matches. There are 16 matches from my 4 favourite European Leagues and at a first glance, I will probably study the stats for about 5 or 6 and with 18 games in England to look at as well, it's difficult to find the time to actually analyse to a level that I am comortable with. Still, I know what I'm looking for and as ever, it's goals, goals, goals. Here are my predictions and best bets for Saturday afternoon's European football. Evening fixtures to follow. Bundesliga
15:30 Bayer Leverkusen vs Hannover 96- Prediction 2.0- Best Bet - Leverkusen -1 to win @21/20 Should be a routine home win here for an on form Leverkusen against a distinctly off form Hannover. Stats back this one up. 15:30 Hoffenheim vs Bayern Munich - Prediction 1.2- Best Bet - BTTS @ 8/11 Bayern are suddenly in a bit of a mess following a 3.1 thumping at Porto on Wednesday and with their chief doctor and his medical team resigning in the face of public criticism by Pep, it really has been a troubling week for the defending champions and particularly for Guardiola. While the title should be in the bag, I expect them to struggle with the challenge of a Hoffenheim side that know how to score goals at home. The Hoff have scored in every home game bar 1 this season and in previous years they have found the net against Bayern in 4 out of 6 home games and given the week that Bayern have had and with plenty of first team regulars missing, i expect the BTTS market to appear here @8/11 odds. 15:30 Borussia Dortmund vs Paderborn- Prediction 2.0- Best Bet - no bet 15:30 Hertha Berlin vs FC Cologne - Prediction - Best Bet = no bet 15:30 Freiburg vs Mainz 05 - Prediction - Best Bet - no bet La Liga 16:00 Barcelona vs Valencia - Prediction 3.2- Best Bet - Barca to win 3.2 @28/1, BTTS @10/11, BTTS and over 2.5 goals @6/5 One of my favourite ever fixtures as Barca welcome Valencia and I'm thinking of the famous 3.2 victory back in 1999 when Rivaldo's sensational hat-trick, secured with a last minute bicycle kick of extraordinary beauty sealed a Champions League place for a struggling side, and secured one of my favourite ever bets (3.2 correct score @25/1) Of course times have changed but what price of a repeat today? 28/1 and I'm on it! BTTS and over 2.5 goals is my best bet here. *I've just checked whoscored.com and they fancy 3.2 as well! I AM ON IT! Bo's Best Bets Hoffenheim v Bayern - BTTS @8/11 Leverksuen -1 to beat Hannover @21/20 Barcelona v Valencia - BTTS@10/11, BTTS and over 2.5 goals @6/5 Bo's Bonkers Bet Barcelona v Valencia, final score 3.2 - 28/1 Comments are closed.
