Graham Alexander bought himself some time with a top-six finish for Motherwell last season and things got even better for the under-pressure gaffer when he guided his side to a European spot despite just three wins in their last 18 league matches.
But the heat is on once more after a 1-0 home defeat to Sligo Rovers, only their fifth win ever in Europe, in last Thursday's Europa Conference League qualifier and by his own admission tonight's tie at The Showgrounds is “do or die”.
The visitors might be better after another week's training under their belt but Sligo are well into their Irish league season and that sharpness was evident last week. Only a win will do for ‘Well and they're even money to get the result they need but it would take a brave man to back them to turn things around.
NS Mura could be worth a punt tonight at 10/11. Nine months ago they stunned Spurs with a 94th-minute winner in Slovenia which all but knocked Harry Kane and co out of the Europa Conference League at the group stages. They host Dubliners, St Patrick's tonight and the tie is all square at 1-1.
The visitors lie 4th in the Irish top flight and have won four of 11 on the road, but all four have come against the bottom four teams in the league so they'll need to produce their best away performance of the season to progress but Mura should be better for their European exploits last season and that experience can help them to victory tonight.
Early first-half goals paid dividends for us last night as Bodo/Glimt raced into a 4-0 half-time lead and it could be a similar story for Slavia Prague tonight. The Czechs lead Gibraltar's St Joseph's 4-0 from the first leg and should rack up a few more tonight. Over 1.5 first-half goals pays 8/13.
Double that with Over 1.5 Goals at Newtown v Spartak Trnava. The Welsh side trail 4-1 from the first leg and there could be more goals tonight as they chase the game to try to stay in the tie.

Egyptian League 8pm
Future FC versus Zamalek
Zamalek to WIN 2-1
8/1 @ WH.
——————————-
This is a FUTURE result which has happened already.
I am 55 yrs of age born 08/03/2167
I have returned to follow up on my family history and the Egyptian match has some relevance to my journey.
Be bold,be wise & Win Tonight.
I will be returning to my own timezone in 1 hour from this post.
How was that mushroom soup you had for lunch Sasa 😬🍄🍄
Hahahaha…..you’re not a million miles away Hull
2-1 to Zamalek is happening..Keep an eye out !!!!!!!
So the best you can give us is an 8/1 correct scoreline? I’d ask when Spurs next win the league but, like you said, you were born in 2167 🙂
Try Slavia Prague to win 7-0
Why should people even be liking a fake prediction of someone who doesn’t know the year in which he was born? 🙄
@delatech07…it was my thoughts/prediction,and if you cant laugh at a joke post,then just F*** off ya ret*rd
Delatech – he was having a laugh! Sasa is a good, regular poster 👍
Nothing doing on the goals-front last night for my bet…should have gone for corners – there was 14 in the 1st half 😂
Onto tonight and fancy the following from Brasil’s Serie B:
VASCO DA GAMA VS. CRB (11.00pm)
I can see why goals are priced so high but I think there could well be a couple with CRB getting in on the act at a great price:
CRB OVER 0.5 TEAM GOALS
(1/1, bet365) NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE &OVER 2.5 MATCH GOALS
(11/4, bet365) NB ⭐️⭐️
CRB OVER 1.5 TEAM GOALS
(5/1, bet365) LONGSHOT ⭐️
Best of luck with all bets!
Your NAP is on my short list hull, which is probably a bad thing 😂
Great minds…or empty vessels – time will tell 😂
Good luck pal 🤞
Levadia vs Hibernians
Levadia over 1.5tgs @ 1/1 (bet365) Nap
The odds on this have been changing a bit from 5/6 last night to 5/4 today and now evens but can’t find anything to put me off them repeating what they managed in the first leg, and should go for it with them trailing the game on aggregate.
Sligo vs Motherwell
Each team 20+ booking points @ 1/1 (bet365) Nb
Small stake
Double on above @ 3/1 (bet365)
Good luck 🤞

Vasco da Gama v CRB
23:00
Brazilian Serie B
CRB to score (EVENS) 🇧🇷 NAP 🇧🇷
Vasco only conceded 2 In ten home games which isn’t clever for this bet.
CRB though have only lost 1 of last 13 games and that was away to leaders cruzeiro.
CRB have seen BTTS in 7 of last 8 games.
5 of last 6 head to head seen BTTS.
Over the last 10 league games these have both played 10 and accrued 17 points.
Only 1 of Vasco’s 10 home games gone over 2.5 goals and only 1 gone BTTS so if this bet comes in the most likely score could be 0-1 or maybe 1-1

Colombian Cup
Quarter final 1st leg
Magdalena to score 6-5 🇨🇴 (NB) 🇨🇴 UNIBET.
side bet
BTTS 13-8 (UNIBET)
This match is priced up on last season’s efforts as Magdalena finished bottom but Magdalena’s form has turned round since a 1-1 draw with equidad in may .
After 4 games this season Magdalena lead the league with 3 wins and 1 draw while equidad have 3 draws and 1 defeat.
In this season’s cup Magdalena have won all 4 games with BTTS
