After tipping up yet another winner in his featured column on Tuesday, SlipsTips is back with a Bet Builder for Ferencvaros' Europa League clash with Celtic on Thursday night.
Ferencvaros vs Celtic (Thursday, 20:00)
Celtic kept their Europa League qualification hopes alive with a 2-0 victory over Ferencvaros at Parkhead and they will look to repeat the trick in Thursday's return match at the Groupama Arena.
After successive defeats in Group G, Ange Postecoglou would have been relieved to get three points on the board at the expense of Ferencvaros.
The Hungarian hosts, on the other hand, have lost each of their opening three pool fixtures and have much work to do if they want to progress in Europe beyond Christmas.
The Bhoys will have their backers in Budapest at 6/5 and better but I'm going to steer clear of the 1×2 betting and instead back each team to hit three or more corners and over three match cards, a 4/5 (PaddyPower) Bet Builder.
Peter Stöger's side are now in must-win territory and given the dynamics of the section, I'm more than happy to back the Green Eagles to hit a minimum of three corners on Thursday night.
Unsurprisingly, Ferencvaros are averaging a league-high 7.10 corners in the Hungarian top-flight this term, but they did manage to rack up seven flagkicks at Celtic Park a fortnight ago.
Given that the high-octane Hoops are averaging a healthy 8.17 corners per-game in the Scottish Premiership this season, I'll happily throw over two Celtic corners into the equation.
With both teams desperately seeking points to put themselves back in contention in Group G, I'm going to round off the Bet Builder with over three match bookings.
Over 3.5 cards has copped in four of the of the pairs collective six section outings and it's worth noting that referee Fabio Verissimo has flashed a minimum of four cards in nine of his 10 assignments this season so far.
What's more, the aforementioned combination clicked in the reverse fixture at Celtic Park and I see no reason to oppose the same formula when the pair reconvene on Thursday night.
