3 games for us to look at tonight from Scotland, Germany and Holland, and they all come in the shape of first leg play-offs with Rangers hosting Motherwell in the first leg of their promotion play-off final with Motherwell while in Holland we have another first leg, this time for the Europa Leage play-offs as Heerenveen plays host to Vitesse. In Germany, we have another relegation play-off with Hamburg from the Bundesliga taking on Karlsruhe from the division below. The season is winding to a close but we should see some exciting action in the matches we have remaining from the major leagues (I know Scotland doesn't really count) and these 3 matches tonight should prove to be no different. Here are my brief previews, predictions and best bets! 20.30 - Hamburger SV vs Karlsruher SC - Prediction 1.1- Best Bets - Draw @12/5
It's the Bundesliga relegation play-offs and there will be plenty of tension in this fixture between never before relegated Hamburg and 2nd division hopefuls Karlsruher. The home side have picked up lately and will have taken confidence from their weekend win over Schalke but this will be a tense affair so I don't expect too many goals. Karlsruher have lost just 2 of their last 12 on the road but have drawn a number of those fixtures (3 of their last 6) and something similar might happen tonight with so much to play for and Hamburg drawing 3 of their last 7 at home as well. It's not gonna make it into my best bets but you might wanna try a draw on a more ambitious double or treble. 20.45 - Rangers v Motherwell - Predictions - 2.0 - Best Bets - Rangers to win @8/11 I'm backing Rangers to get the win tonight @8/11, but I have my reservations as you would imagine with the Gers playing their 5th play-off game in 19 days. Motherwell are not in the best of shape and having finished 2nd bottom, obviously come into this fixture without too much confidence and a trip to take on Rangers in front of 50000 fans is going to be tough when you consider their form and that they haven't won at Ibrox in 18 years. I'm beginning to believe again in Rangers and in Haris Vuckic they finally have a player that looks capable of producing a moment of quality when you need it most and I fancy the Gers to get the job done tonight with the impressive Solvenian at the heart of it. 20.45 - Heerenveen v Vitesse - Predictions 2.2- Best Bets - BTTS 8/15. The stats make a strong case for BTTS when these 2 meet tonight for the first leg of their Europa League play-off. 5 of Heerenveen's last 7 have seen BTTS while the same ratio applies to Vitesse's last 7 on the road while both sides have seen BTTS in 6 of their last 7, be it home or away and I expect the same here @8/15 odds. Bo's Best Bets! Bo's Deadly Double Total Staked - 3.5 Points Potential Returns - 9 .2 Points Rangers to beat Motherwell @8/11 Heerenveen v Vitesse - BTTS @8/15 Bo's Bonkers Bet Heereenveen 2 v 2 Vitesse @12/1 Other selections Haris Vuckic to score first @5/1 Hamburg v Karlsruher - draw @12/5 Comments are closed.
