SlipsTips takes a look at the Bet Builder market ahead of PSV's Champions League third-round qualifier with Monaco on Tuesday night.
PSV vs Monaco (Tuesday, 19:30)
PSV and Monaco meet in the second leg of their Champions League third-round qualifier at the Philips Stadion on Tuesday night.
This tie is delicately poised following a 1-1 between the pair at The Stade Louis II last midweek, with the winners set to face either Rangers or Union Saint-Gilloise in the playoff round.
These two teams have since commenced on their respective league campaigns, with PSV dishing out a 4-1 pasting to FC Emmen, while Monaco secured a 2-1 win at Strasbourg.
There isn't a huge amount of appeal in the 1×2 market here but backing each team to hit 3+ corners and each team to receive 10+ booking points looks like a nice alternative at 4/5 with SkyBet.
Both clubs are renowned for their forward-thinking styles and that should lead to an entertaining encounter between the pair on Tuesday night.
Unsurprisingly, PSV were prominent in the corner rankings last term, averaging 5.85 per game the Eredivisie, not to mention they covered the 3+ flag kick in each of their six continental clashes on home turf.

As for Monaco, they were averaging 5.79 corners per game in Ligue 1 last season, and it’s also worth pointing out that they hit three corners at this venue in the Europa League last season.
To round off the selection I'm going with each team to receive 10+ booking points in what should be a closely-fought contest under the Philips Stadion lights.
Both teams picked up two bookings apiece in the first leg and given what's at stake here, Spanish referee Jesús Gil Manzano – who averaged north of four cards per game across all competitions last season – should be kept busy.
With all that in mind, the 4/5 (SkyBet) on each team to hit 3+ corners and each team to receive 10+ booking points makes plenty of appeal given that we have all the necessary ingredients required for an entertaining encounter in Eindhoven.
