EUROPA LEAGUE WEDNESDAY: We preview Wednesday’s game between St Etienne v Man U (kick off 5pm) with a recommended BETDAQ bet.
ST ETIENNE V MANCHESTER UNITED
5pm This tie is basically over after United won 3-0 in the first leg at Old Trafford, however that doesn’t mean that there wont be good bets on the game. St Etienne suffered another loss the weekend against Montpellier, meaning that they have now lost three of their last four. There’s no doubt that there will be a lot of backers of United here at 2.3 – but you have to think about how much effort they will put into a game that they don’t need to win, or even draw!
The above point is especially important given that they have the EFL Cup final to look forward to at the weekend too. They comfortably beat Hull in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-final, only to lose to them in the second leg – their only loss in a while. So you might see a similar type story here, and that is the main thing that puts us off backing 2.3. However, with the gulf in class we don’t feel that 2.3 is a good value lay either. The shrewd move is to stay away from the match odds and focus on the goals market. We feel that under 2.5 goals is good value at 1.8, in what could be a quiet game – it’s certainly in United’s interests to make this a boring affair and Mourinho is particularly good at getting those type of jobs done, so the unders appeals.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Under 2.5 goals at 1.8.
