As weeks go they don't come much bigger for Rangers, a European semi-final followed by a trip to Celtic Park in what could be a season-defining week.
The odds are stacked against the Gers in their quest to retain the Premiership (9/1) and the bookies give them even less of a chance (10/1) over 90 minutes in Germany tonight where they face RB Leipzig.
Leipzig sit fourth in the Bundesliga but of course Rangers have already won in Germany this season, beating Borussia Dortmund 4-2 and subsequently 6-4 on aggregate, so they won't fear a trip to the Red Bull Arena.
Until Saturday's defeat at the hands of Union Berlin, RBL had been in formidable form, their only loss this year had been at Bayern's Allianz Arena so will the 2-1 defeat at the weekend prove to be a wake-up call for Domenico Tedesco's side or the start of a decline in fortune?
Rangers have shown great resilience at times this season and have harnessed the atmosphere at Ibrox on European nights to power themselves to the semi-finals. If they can leave Germany still in the tie they'll have a fighting chance back in Glasgow next week and could yet deliver on the 7/2 odds of them reaching the final.
In six away games in Europe this season Rangers only win was that one against Haaland-less Dortmund but they deserve more respect than those 10/1 odds. Sparta Prague, Braga and Red Star all beat them with a one-goal margin, the latter to late meaningless goal when Rangers were 4-1 up in the tie.
They can be backed on the Asian Line with a +1.5 start at 1.930 (a shade over 9/10) and that will be popular with Gers fans who would cash in even they lost by a single goal.
West Ham also face German opposition in the other Europa League semi-final in the shape of Eintracht Frankfurt. The Eagles pulled off the result of the last round when they eliminated Barcelona thanks to a stunning win at the Nou Camp.
Remarkably that victory is their only win in their last eight and they occupy a mid-table position in the Bundesliga.
As for the Hammers, their form has been quite patchy too (W4 D2 L4) and look like they've blown their chance of a top four Premier League finish. That adds extra incentive tonight and they look a good price at 10/11 to take a first leg advantage.
There may not be enough room at King Power Stadium for the egos of the two managers tonight. Brendan Rodgers was once head of youth at Chelsea under Jose Mourinho's tenure so the two gaffers go back a long way but they'll be equally desperate to add UEFA's newest piece of silverware to their list of honours won at the end of the season.
The return of Jamie Vardy could prove timely for the Foxes but he's unlikey to play the full 90 minutes otherwise odds of 6/4 on him finding the net would be tempting.
But there could be goals here. Roma have scored in 29 of 34 Serie A games this season and have scored 25 times in 10 Conference League matches so far. They could help us along the way to BTTS at 4/5.

🇮🇸Vikingur Reykjavik v Keflavik🇮🇸
🔘Bet 1: 11+ total match corners: 8/11 (Skybet)
💰5 points NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🔘Bet 2: 12+ total match corners: 11/10 (Skybet)
💰3 points NB ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Icelandic Premium league is still in its infancy but already patterns are starting to emerge – noticeably corner numbers.
Even though we are only in week 3, some insanely high corner counts are starting to show in Iceland.
Vikingur’s first home game of the season saw an incredible 23 corners. They hit 11 and conceded 12. They followed that up with another 15 in their first away game of the season, scoring 10 and conceding 5. End to end stuff!
Keflavik matches have both seen 11 corners in which they’ve contributed 6 and 3 and conceded 5 and 8. Both of those games were against top quality opposition (1st and 3rd) so you’d think they’ll contribute a few more at mid table Vikingur R. Keflavik conceded 8 on their travels last game and it’s hard to oppose them conceding plenty more to a team who are single handedly averaging 11 corners per game.
It’s still very early in the season, but it’s impossible to ignore the corner numbers in Vikingur R games and 8/11 and 11/10 for 11 and 12 match corners is well worth taking on in my opinion.
I might have another bet for the Lillestrom game as well. Will post later if I can finalise an angle I like. 👍🏻
I agree with you. I went with over5.5 first half corners myself.

💰5 points NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❌
🔘Bet 2: 12+ total match corners: 11/10 (Skybet)

No joy with these but with 7 corners in a bright first half, cover was readily available which I’m sure people would have taken. Losses all covered. 👍🏻
Well done all winners.
Leipzig v Rangers – 3+ corners & 1+ cards each team
Man Utd v Chelsea – 3+ corners & 1+ cards each team
Uni Catolica v Flamengo – 9+ corners
27/10+ wi PP
I’ll be on a couple of goals bets tonight
Man U v Chelsea – Chelsea over 1.5TG, 21/20, Unibet
With Man United at home and several players out the expectation will be for them to attack but that will play into Chelsea’s hands, who are more than capable to hit them on the counter. Chelsea are capable of hitting 3 or 4 here so happy to take the double your money on two away goals.
RB Leipzig v Rangers – Rangers over 1.5TG, 9/2, Unibet
BTTS and overs is probably a safer bet but the 9/2 on offer for two Rangers goals is overpriced IMO. Who can forget what Rangers did at the Signal Iduna.

Rangers fan and praying we can get a result tonight to at least keep the tie alive until next week, but…..betting is betting and I just can’t believe Leipzig are 10/11 -2 corners. Rangers ain’t getting much possession tonight and this is a serious step up in class for us. Be amazed if this doesn’t land.
Not seeing odds like this anywhere. Who’s this with? 👍

Macca – I’m ignoring your comments once again, like Hull said. Don’t forget your the guy that thought Norwich would get something at Old Trafford 😂
Oh well….Never mind.
“Like Hull said” – what exactly?
Ghapmaster – I’m saying nothing on this one but I think the number of thumbs up to Macca’s post indicates that your subterfuge has well and truly blown off without anyone having to out you.
It did amaze me that some who I thought would know better by now were readily accepting your lavish well dones 🤷♂️
Do you mean me hull in that last paragraph.
Guilty as charged in that case.
He said thanks for a winner last week so I replied in kind, I’m not a psychologist or handwriting expert and don’t know who is behind the names they use.
To be honest I would do it again unless they are abusive, I will leave the espionage to those who run the site, if it’s 100% confirmed the poster is a bad egg then I won’t engage in dialogue after its confirmed here.
Basically I just post here, have the odd bit of banter and then sulk when my bets go down 😁, not got time to second guess who other contributors are.
I didn’t mean anyone in particular Elvis? Just said I was amazed some hadn’t sussed out what was going on.
Not sure where your going with espionage and if it doesn’t bother you then that’s fine by me.
All I know is that a bad egg I can cope with…someone who constantly undermines the hard work that goes into this site and who connives, divides, lies and spews horrendous insults about members dying of cancer and worse, then that I don’t forget and I will always have an issue with.
Not saying it doesn’t bother me if you read my piece hull.
Of course it does, and if confirmation is posted here chances are they will change names and start posting again and I won’t engage with such people
Like I said I’m not a detective and if a new name thanks me for a tip, what am I to to ??, Ignore the post ?.
Elvis, I’ve got way too much respect for you as a a great picker of bets and also as a very sound person to get into any negativity with you – I apologise if my post came across as such – that was not how it was intended at all.
We’ve both been on here for a very long time and the common denominators for us both have always been to post some bets, pick some brains and have a bit of a laugh…I like that so let’s not ever lose it.
Like you, I’m pretty passionate about the community that we have all built up under Paul’s tenureship and I’ll protect the integrity of the site as best I can from folk who consistently look to abuse it at a serious level.
Not morons, I can let that pass, I’m talking about the one or two who have consistently looked to undo all of that good work by defaming characters, abusing posters and stealing tips for significant financial gain…for that I make no apologies.
Anyway, enough of this – let’s stick to the tips…win or lose, we are all in it together 👍
Small stake longshot for tonight
Leipzig over 2.5mgs
West Ham & Leicester over 1.5tgs
