Well it was another frustrating day for bobreaksbookies as my big bet Atletico narrowly lost 1.0 to Real in a game that was changed by the dismissal of Arda Turan who could have no complaints with the red card. In the other tie, Juventus and Monaco played out a 0.0 draw which did bring up my under 0.5 goals first half at 5/4 but sadly Atletico's defeat at the death cost me most of all. Today we have the remaining Europa league quarter final 2nd leg ties and I'm looking for goals to try to get us back on track for the weekend although following my losses this week, it seems sensible to keep stakes low. Here are my short previews and best bets UEFA Europa League (first leg scores in brackets)
21:05 (0.0) Dnipro vs Club Bruges - Prediction 0.0- Best Bet Under 2.5 goals @7/10 It was a pretty tense affair in Belgium last week and a repeat could be on the cards here but I'm not too keen on this fixture as I expect a low scoring match that could go either way. Brugge are unbeaten in 16 Europa League fixtures but Dnipro have home advantage and looked the more dangerous side in the first leg. I think this one is best avoided although under 2.5 goals @7/10 would probably be my strongest pick here. 21:05 (1.2) Zenit St. Petersburg vs Sevilla - Prediction 1.1 Best Bet - BTTS @8/13 Hulk, Domenico Criscito and Danny all missed the first leg in Spain through suspension last week, but should return for Zenit tonight as they look to turn around a 2.1 deficit from last weeks first leg. The Russians were close to winning the first leg until 2 late Sevilla goals turned the tie around to leave the Spaniards favourite to progress at 1/2 odds but despite some excellent form at both home and abroad, I'm not convinced that Seville should be that short to make it through so I'm going with goals as I expect BTTS here at 4/5 odds. Should be a close one and the visitors will do well to qualify. 21:05 (4.1) Napoli vs Wolfsburg - Prediction 2.1- Best Bet - Napoli to win @6/5 This tie looks to be over as a contest and the information coming from the Wolfsburg camp is that key men such as De Bruyne, Schurrle and Luis Gustavo have injury concerns and may be rested ahead of a big weekend fixture with Moenchengladbach. I fancy Napoli to wrap up the tie tonight and having scored 10 goals in 3 games, they are coming into form at the perfect time of the season. Team-news will be important here and BTTS has a chance as well but I will take a chance on Napoli at 6/5 odds. 21:05 (1.1) Fiorentina vs Dynamo Kyiv - Prediction 1.1 - Best Bet - BTTS @5/6 and Kiev not to lose at 11/10 Really difficult tie to call with Fiorentina a litlte bit off form and Kiev not the best travellers. I think I will avoid this one for my main bet but I do like the 11/10 on Kiev not to lose in 90 minutes. Comments are closed.
