MRF TopTips Generic Ozil

WE move seamlessly from the Europa League to the Champions League but the one consistency is no fans.

I watch the Bayer Leverkusen vs Rangers game and it was a bit of non-event. There should have been 8500 Scots in the BayArena and I'm sure their noise would have ensured a better game.

Rangers went down tamely to a 1-0 defeat but well done to Wolves who edged out Olympiakos to reach the last eight.

My treble was a loser but well done to all the winners on Thursday and good luck on Friday.

On paper we have two good games – Man City vs Real Madrid with the English side 2-1 up – and Juventus trying to overturn a 1-0 defeat in Lyon.

I've picked out a double and the reasoning for the bet is on my preview.

Our guys have also posted previews on the big games so check them out.

    St Johnstone will likely go off at 1/2 against Aberdeen on Saturday as a result of Aberdeen’s Covid outbreak which will subsequently see them
    without 8 first team players + Cosgrove and Considine

    Unless you were able to get on Aberdeen at 2/1 to evens i certainly wouldn’t be backing us at 1/2

    We will likely win but I wouldn’t be backing as short as that – value has gone

      Greg club have only confirmed 2 first team players will be missing. The other 6 are just listed as players. Theres a photo and a list doing the rounds but neither match up.

      Strange game goes ahead if so many players may be out.

      GregBrowning 4 years ago

      Yeah seen the list and when you add Cosgrove and Considine is a fairly substantial loss of personal

      That said – Aberdeen will still be able to field a decent enough side. Hoping money continues to comes in for us as it could open up some
      Good value on Aberdeen on the Handicap and corners markets

      Surely St Johnstone should be able to beat them when they are missing 8 players. Maybe Sless can confirm but they only have one central midfielder and a squad of 16 first team players left and 3 of them are keepers. The handicap markets against Celtic should be interesting next week.

      I’m not about to get into naming players as this is only speculative at the moment, but out of the 11 that started against Rangers, it looks likely as few as 4 of these players will start against St Johnstone. That said, with the exception of a couple of youngsters being brought in, I still wouldn’t completely write them off. Will be interesting to see how the bookies price the market for this game.

    • Avatar of Ross Hunter
      hunter 4 years ago

      My predicted starting 11

      Lewis
      Hernandez Taylor Hoban Hayes
      McLennan Campbell Hedges Wright
      Mcginn
      Edmondson

      Midfield looks to be the biggest issue but Starting 11 should still be capable enough.

    • Avatar of sless1903
      sless1903 4 years ago

      From the list I’ve seen 5 on it were starters against Rangers. However the list is unconfirmed and I’ve heard this morning that some players on it are available to play so until the club confirm the players involved I’ve no idea what to believe.

    Belarus for me today
    Homework Is complete and I am going for shakhter to win @ home to dinamo brest
    Shakhter has won 4 out of 5 and unbeaten in 15 games
    I expect them to win against a brest team with mixed form their last 5 games read 2 wins 1 draw 2 defeats of which the 2 wins were at home and the others were away from home
    My main stat for this bet is brests form away to the top half teams and only seems like blatant tactics to keep it tight and see if we can pinch something out of the game
    4 losses out of 5
    Lost 1-0 won 2-0 lost 2-1 lost 2-0 lost 1-0

    Shakhter to win under 3.5 13/8 NAP✅✅
    Shakhter to win under 2.5 7/2✅
    Shakhter combination correct score
    1-0 2-0 2-1 9/4✅
    Napped the under 3.5 cause it covers the 3-0 a braver man would nap the correct score and as you can see both of these would’ve won 4 out of 5 and the under 2.5 3 out of 5 times

    Well done all winners

    Cristiano Ronaldo
    No introductions necessary this man thrives on the champions league
    To score is very skinny @ 8/13
    To score first is also very skinny @ 2/1
    I can definitely see these coming in but far too much risk for a first goalscorer at those odds
    I like all the shots on target bets with skybet 3+ @ evens and 4+ @ 5/2 in particular
    However this man has burnt my fingers before with these bets and I’m undecided whether to take these on yet
    Even when hes not hitting the target though he is always trying and for that reason i am taking the total shots market
    7+ @ 10/11 NAP
    8+ @ 7/4
    10+ @ 5/1
    My confidence in these bets really comes from i believe Juventus will be chasing the game for the whole 90mins which leads to more shots
    I wouldn’t put anyone off going for shots on target rather than total shots as I think they are both just as good value
