ANTOINE GRIEZMANN showed just why Barcelona are desperate to sign him with a double in Atletico Madrid's Europa League cruise against Marseille.

My Super Single was Griezmann to score and I also tipped Atletico to win and to win to nil but didn't believe it would be as easy as it was.

Marseille paid the penalty by gifting Atletico the opener and their hopes died when Dmitri Payet limped off inside half an hour.

It was a good night for most and well done to Jordan for his winner in Denmark.

Thursday's another quiet night with the Premiership play-off final 1st leg between Livingston and Partick Thistle and the second leg of the League One semi between Exeter and Lincoln.

I've posted a separate preview on the Scottish game and I expect a tight first leg and possibly a draw.

Exeter have lost just one in 15 at home and are 23-25 with Marathonbet to reach the Final after a 0-0 draw away.

Ex-Aberdeen striker Jayden Stockley is top scorer and has netted four in his last five at St James' Park. He is 5-1 at Black Type to break the deadlock and 29-20 at William Hill to net.

There are German and Dutch play-offs as well as Scandinavian games but for the top tips it's a no bet day for me.

Wolfsburg face Holstein Kiel in the Bundesliga play-off after winning a year ago against Eintracht Braunchsweig. Divock Origi helped them to a morale-boosting 4-1 defeat of Cologne last week and ironically Holstein's manager Markus Anfang will be in charge of them next season.

Holstein enjoyed a fantastic campaign and are bidding for back-to-back promotions but Wolfsburg's experience should see them through. Coach Bruno Labbadia saved them last season and kept Hamburg up through the play-offs in 2015.

Wolfsburg are evens at McBookie to win tonight's home leg and that looks a fair price.

      Always folk on them in every bookies when a go in and get coupons/put daft bets on on ma way up the rd. Wonder if they’ll start doing it with online slots/roulette now as that’s just as easy to access as FOBTs. We’ll probably see bookies shutting down shops now, 3 Ladbrokes in the space of half a mile in Bathgate plus WH & PP next door/across the rd from main one.

      Almost all staff are now cashiers. It’s like buying a pint of milk.

      Just back from the golf. I reckon many bookies will close down because most of the takings are through the machines.
      If not close down they’ll reduce their hours – opening from 9am to 10pm is nuts.
      I think the stake had to be reduced but people with problems will still have problems.

      Just read that Sports Betting is about to be legalised over in the United States, a lot of the major bookmakers will be competing for a sizable market share over there and no doubt be offering a series of enticing promotions in order to gather a huge customer base. Primary focus will no doubt be over there in the meantime……..

      As Matt Chapman said on itv racing the betting shops are gonna have to go back to being bookmakers which is going to be interesting, sponsor money for sporting events will suffer but we got by pre 1999 before the fobt were introduced.

    • Avatar of mark edley

      I can’t see how it will affect sponsorship in any form at all,if anything it should have the opposite effect as bookies will do there upmost to drive one another out.

    Djurgarden vs Orebro SK – Djurgarden over 3 second half team corners

    England League 2 19:45
    Exeter vs Lincoln City – over 5 second half corners

    Treble 3.6/1 Paddypower **NAP**

    Djurgarden’s home 2nd half team corner stats this season are 6, 4, 4 and 6. Orebro’s away 2nd half corners conceded stats are 8, 4, 2 but its the eight conceded to Sirius in their previous away that holds weight here as Sirius are routed to the bottom of the table and Djurgarden comparatively are the better side to them.

    3 out of the 3 times that Exeter and Lincoln have encountered each other this season there have been more than 5 second half corners awarded in each match. In August at St James Park there were 7, in March at Sincil Bank there were 11 and last week in the first leg of the play-off at Sincil Bank there were 6. With the tie standing goalless its very likely there will be a good few second half corners again.

    Good luck all

      Its usually a good bet to play if hes up against someone who aint as prolific on them but Smith can be deadly when he gets into a grove so personally I wouldn’t take it. Anderson over 99.5 average could be a good bet to go with because it will take into account all the 180’s, 140’s and other ton plus scores he hits Anderson has also cleared the 99.5 average numerous times this campaign.

    Afternoon Gents

    SPL playoff 1st leg action for me tonight

    Livingston v Partick Thistle 7.45pm

    If David Hopkins gets this Livi side promoted it would have to go down as one of the greatest ever promotion achievements in Scotland. They host Partick Thistle who did just enough to avoid auotmatic relegation to the championship.

    I don’t think there will be much between the sides and I agree with Mr F that Thistle would be happy with a draw given they have struggled on the road and Livingston are strong at home.

    That said, I do believe Thistle are still a better team that Livi and have the experience all see them through this tie and secure their safety. Be interesting to see who Thistle Manager Alan Archibald selects up front between Sammon and Doolan, I just feel thistle will grab a goal here. Thought about Thistle just to win at an attractive 6/4 but have opted to go for Thistle goal time. This isn’t based on stats as Thistle have been stinking away from Home and scored just 11 goals from 18 away games. Just a feeling the difference
    in Legaues will show

    Back Partick Thistle to score before 58 mins 5/6 (Bet365) (NAP)

    Surprised that Almere are underdogs at home tonight in the 1st leg against De Graafschap. Almere may hold a world record (exaggeration) for both teams scored this season, but they have held up their form at home over the last few weeks, even knocking out the Eredivisie side in the last round. De Graafschap have one clean sheet in their last 13 games on the road, with their last clean sheet at Almere coming in 2010 (6 times). BTTS & Over 2.5 is vert short, so Over 3.5 Goals looks like the only ‘safe’ pick here. This is not a league where defensive strategies come to mind. Can see this being quite a big aggregate score come the end of the second leg. My pick is as follows.
