ALL eyes are on Dublin tonight as Bayer Leverkusen bid to continue their perfect season by beating Atalanta to get their hands on the Europa League trophy.
The new German champions have gone 51 games unbeaten during a remarkable campaign and now stand on the brink of the most remarkable treble in European football history.
The bookies make them heavy favourites to defeat an Atalanta side sitting fifth in Serie A but Gian Piero Gasperini's side have already upset the odds by dumping Liverpool in the quarter-finals.
So the Italian outfit will be confident of upsetting the odds once more to get their hands on a European trophy for the first time in their history.

Atalanta vs Bayer Leverkusen Top Betting Tips
With the likes of Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, Roma and West Ham unable to get the better of Bayer Leverkusen this season, it's no surprise to see Bet365 pricing them at just 2/5 to lift the trophy.
But this is a one-off game and the Serie A side shouldn't be rank outsiders so there might be a bit of value in backing Atalanta in the double chance at 19/20, given few teams are often that price for a European final.
Going for goals is probably safer as both managers like to play on the front foot, although nerves can often make finals a disappointment. Over 2.5 match strikes is 10/11 and combining that with BTTS boosts the odds to 13/10.
Gianluca Scamacca has been Atalanta's main man in Europe, netting six times. Kevin Mac has flagged him up at 16/1 to score a header in his match preview for the final and that looks worth a long-odds punt.
In a European final it's often a smart move backing a keeper to get booked as they can pick up yellows for time-wasting if their side is in front. Atalanta's Juan Musso is 9/2 in that market while Leverkusen's Matej Kovar is 6/1.
VPS Vaasa vs KuPS Kuopio Top Betting Tips
There's some action in Finland before the main event tonight and first plays third in the Veikkausliiga as VPS Vaasa host KuPS Kuopio.
After six games only three points separate the top six and VPS lead the way by a point from champions HJK Helsinki and KuPS after winning four of their matches.
Both teams have been involved in some thrillers so far, with BTTS failing to land in just one of their matches for each. That makes backing both to score appealing tonight at 10/11 and adding over 2.5 goals to that boosts the odds to 6/4.
With both sides making good starts it should be a close game and the half-time draw pays 21/20.
HJK Helsinki vs Gnistan Top Betting Tips
HJK Helsinki have made a decent start to their Finnish title defence and sit second but have played a game more than most of their title rivals so they need a win at home to Gnistan tonight.
Seventh-placed Gnista flew out the traps by beating FC Inter then defeating Ilves Tampere 6-4 in a thriller. But they've gone five games without a win since then so it's no surprise to see HJK Helsinki as 2/5 hot favourites tonight.
Backing the champions to be winning at half-time and full-time boosts the odds to 11/10. Over 10 corners also looks good at 6/5 as that bet has landed in HJK's last three at home, with 18 in their last match against VPS.

Spurs v Newcastle
Spurs to win at 27/20
I’m not sure what this friendly is all about but It means more to the Spurs boss than it does Newcastle. Ange won’t want to lose this match. Newcastle players can’t be happy with flying all that way after a hard slog all season and with the Euros coming up.
Best of luck

Good to see you back pal.
A couple of bets for next season,
Crystal Palace top four finish at 28/1 skybet
Man City to be relegated at 25/1 skybet
Best of luck
I can think of over 100 reasons why the man city bet is a runner
I see it like this 115 charges, they will have good lawyers so you could half that and it’s still an astronomical penalty. The Premier League won’t want to look silly.

Seacoast Phantoms v Boston City
23 May 00:00
Boston to score 7-4 BETWAY
BTTS and over 2.5 goals 23-10 HILLS.
Boston are utterly shite and finished bottom last season.
They have though scored in 8 of their last 10 away games losing heavily most times and even lost 10-1 at home on one occasion 😭
Seacoast won the league the last 2 seasons comfortably and started this season with a 6-1 win
Oddly the last 2 meetings here both ended 3-1.
And
Seacoast have seen BTTS in their last 11 home games with 10 BTTS and overs.
Prediction 6-1
