IF anyone knows what it takes to win a European Trophy, it's Jose Mourinho.
The Portuguese gaffer has tasted European success on no fewer than four occasions (two Champions Leagues & two UEFA/Europa Leagues). Tonight he can add a new title to his list of honours when his AS Roma side take on Feyenoord in the Europa Conference League final in Tirana, Albania.
Sitting in the other dugout will be the relatively inexperienced Dutchman, Arne Slot. The 43-year-old is yet to win any kind of silverware in his managerial career but this is only his first season in charge of the former European Champions following a successful, if brief, stint in charge of AZ Alkmaar.
Slot led Feyenoord to third place in Eredivisie this season, 12 points behind champions Ajax, and their run to tonight's final saw them dispose of Marseille, Slavia Prague and Partizan Belgrade after they topped a group, which also included Slavia as well as Union Berlin and Maccabi Haifa. Despite only scoring 11 goals in the group stages they outgunned the opposition in the knockout stages winning 8-3 (v Partizan), 6-4 (v Slavia) and 3-2 (v Marseille).
Roma dug deep to carve out their route to the final. A 6-1 defeat at Bodo/Glimt in the group stages rasied some eyebrows, and some laughs at Mourinho's expense, but his side recovered to top Group C, scoring an impressive 18 goals in their six matches.
The knock-out stages required some Mourinho-esque performances as the dug deep to squeeze past Vitesse (2-1 on aggregate) and Leicester (also 2-1) either side of handing out some revenge to Bodo/Glimt with a 4-0 win in Rome after the Norwegians beat them for a second time in the Arctic Circle.
So which Roma can we expect to see tonight? In 2010 Mourinho delivered a masterclass when his Inter Milan side knocked out out peak Barcelona before beating heavily-fancied Bayern Munich in the final. Tonight his team carries the weight of favouritism at 11/8 to win inside the 90 minutes much like in his other three European final successes.
It might be a third tier European Competition but there's no doubt that Mourinho would love to add it to his CV and for the Italians it's the chance to win their first continental trophy since 1961.
Feyenoord can be backed at 21/10 to win in 90 minutes and the draw can't ruled out at 23/10 either, we've seen plenty of those already this season's finals in the Carabao Cup, FA Cup, Europa League and Scottish Cup so far.
Roma look to have slightly more quality in their squad than the Dutch side and if push comes to shove the Mourinho-factor can't be ignored at 7/5.

Goal in both halves in all the Norweigan top flight games 6.5/1
Adding the two matches tomorrow 18/1
sky prices better using bookies who have acca boost
Morning all,
I put this bet up yesterday so people could get on the price before it inevitably falls. Annoyingly, bet365 voided the initial bet of 0.0 bodo Asian corner handicap claiming the price was wrong. Fortunately, I managed to find a similar bet at 17/20 with 888sport and that hasn’t been voided so they’re standing by it, which is more than can get said for bet365.
??Bodo/Glimt v Strømgodset??
?Bet: Bodo most corners/Bodo over 4.5 corners – bet builder: 17/20 (888 sport)
?NAP and NB combined ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It’s a shame the bet365 bet was voided by them as not only was it amazing odds but we had the security of money back if the corner count was equal.
However, 17/20 for Bodo most corners/over 4.5 Bodo corners is also too good to turn down and a more than adequate replacement. If Bodo get get the most corners, you’d think they’ll get over 4.5 corners.
Bodo have won the corner count/hit over 4.5 corners in all 4 home games this season, against mainly top teams:
• 5-2 v Tromsø
• 17-3 v Lillestrom
• 8-2 v Vålerenga
• 6-3 v Rosenborg
Whereas Strømgodset have lost the corner count in 3/4 away games. Two of the most recent were absolute hammerings:
• 12-6 v Kristiansund
• 10-0 v Viking
• 7-5 v Haugesund
• 2-9 v Jerv
I watched their game at high flying Viking and they put 11 men behind the ball, lost the corner count 10-0 and ground out a 0-0. I think they’ll do exactly the same against double reigning champions Bodo.
Finally, Bodo have only lost the corner count and had less than 5 corners in only 2 games in 2 and a bit seasons so I’m more than happy to put all my eggs in this basket tonight.
Good luck everyone ??
?? Couple of bigger priced bet builders mate for smaller stakes after a look.
Over 3 first half corners and a goal for Bodo/Glimt first half that’s 88% when playing at home looks decent…It’s 21/10.
Over 4 corners with the goal is 4/1 for a long shot.
GL with your bet, I might have a small play later .
Not sure where you found this
Best I could see was bobo o5.5corners & most corners 1/2
Wow – the odds have been slashed right down to 3/10 with 888sport for this bet. Hopefully others got on at 17/20.
Recoba – I like the sound of that Bodo bet builder. Good luck ??
Hornetboy – unfortunately the price has been slashed. I always screen shot the odds and put them (and my tips) on Twitter as well as on here. @K_R_Jones – always worth checking as I try and get screen shots up a few days in advance on there. That’s not always a possible on here due to the layout of the daily tips and inability to add screen shots.
Good luck all
Gloryhornetboy ‘bet builder’ is Bet365 but I should possibly have stated that and I’ve only just seen yer post. Apologies.
Kris Jones I had a wee win on the horses so stuck £7 n change on the long shot as for 1 extra corner it’s a big difference. Both landed anyway with Bodo/Glimt getting 4 corners by the 28 minute mark but not another corner since with 78 mins gone? ?
There’s home teams 5th corner now on 81 mins?
Strange the old corners at times ,not a huge fan although Alves and Hullshaker amongst others on here do well….then there was always Celtic this season. Least the first 3/4 of the season
Cheers for pointing it out Kris Jones I’m glad I looked in. ?
I’m glad that landed for you Recoba.
To be fair, everything that could have gone wrong in my Bodo corner bet (Bodo scoring early, stromgodset going on the attack out wide) did go wrong but it still just about landed.
I love corner betting, it’s probably been the most profitable aspect for me.
Cheers mate glad yours got there.
Celtic corners was almost a banker bet most weeks along with a goal or 2 in the games for bet builders then they went off the boil but certainly more into them thus season. ?

One more from me today:
??Lillestrom v Valerenga??
?Bet: Lillestrom double chance/over 4.5 Lillestrom corners: 20/23 (Bet365)
?NB ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Top of the table Lillestrom are having an amazing start to the season (played 8 W6 D2 L0) and that’s even more impressive when you see the teams they’ve played. They came away from Bodo with an impressive 1-1 draw, have beaten Molde away 1-2 – hitting 6 corners and have won all 4 home games without even conceding a goal.
At home they boast a perfect record of 4 wins from 4. 8 goals scored and 0 conceded. Impressive. Valerenga, however, are no mugs and despite a poor start by their standards they should pose a few problems which should result in a few Lillestrom corners.
As well as winning, Lillestrom are hitting decent corner numbers. In their 4 home games thus far they’ve hit 7,5,9 and 6. The games where they hit 5 and 6 corners were easy wins which reflects on the slightly lower corner numbers. I can’t see Lillestrom hammering Valerenga here so hopefully that’ll keep things fairly competitive, which should hopefully bring about corners.
I was tempted to have Lillestrom to win at 19/20 but double chance and over 4.5 Lillestrom corners at a shade under evens is a fantastic price and has a 100% record of landing in Lillestrom home games this season.
Going with similar to Bodo/Glimt bet here Kris Jones. ;)
Bet builder Bet365.
Lillestrom to score first half and over 3 corners for the home lot in first half. 9/2.
GL
Oh well it was an effort should’ve just done corners in 1st half?
Hopefully your double chance lands.
Conference League final tonight,man in the middle is Romanian whistler Istvan Kovacs who likes a card now and then. He’s officiated 12 European or international matches season 21-22 and produced a yellow card 55 times including 11 Seville v Lille & 9 Slovakia v Scotland.
Mourinhos sides have been known to enjoy the dark arts and their disciplinary records this season in Seria A were incredibly consistent over the 38 games…
There was 215 yellows in their 38 games. They finished 2nd in the yellow for department 109Y at 2.87 per match & sat top of the yellows against 106Y at an average of 2.79
There were a league high 16 reds in their 38 ,they were 2nd on both reds for and reds against with 8 each
Given the ref likes a card and Roma attract cautions ill have a stab at…
Roma to win BTTS, 3+ corners & 2+ cards each 10/1
Norwegian interest
Lillestrom win & 2+ match goals
Viking win & 2+ match goals
Bodo v Stromsgodet. BTTS & o2.5gls

They made me sweat but late corners are great corners! The perils of corner betting is when your team go 2-0 up early but they kept attacking, fair play to them.
