Best betting tips to bank on for Saturday
Another weekend of club football is upon us, and exciting football matches are to be played across Europe. Out of the abundance of matches, we’ve selected three as usual which can be banked on by punters for returns.
LEEDS vs MAN CITY
Manchester City fell for a thrashing at the hands of Leicester last time out. At home, Pep Guardiola’s men were soundly defeated by Jamie Vardy and co. with the scores standing 5-2 at the end.
That result has now turned the tide in favor of Liverpool now to go after another EPL crown. Before the season, punters had clearly favored the Citizens to lift the trophy at the end of the campaign.
Suffice to say that Pep Guardiola is in limbo at the moment. He no longer seems to have the aura of invincibility surrounding him, and after back-to-back collapses in the Champions League, it’s only a matter of time before fans would start to call for his head.
He needs to make a statement, and now. And just as if it was written, he has the perfect opportunity coming up.
His team is pitted against the Peacocks, who have been promoted to the top flight after a gap of 16 years. They are clearly inexperienced, and do not have the world-class talent the 2018-19 champions possess.
Moreover, Marcelo Bielsa’s men already have shown some glaring weakness in their defense as well.
As such, if Pep plays his chips right, he could secure a huge win this weekend.
However, he needs to understand the offensive potential of a team coached by Marcelo Bielsa. Underestimate them, and Pep perhaps would be handed another embarrassing defeat.
The Peacocks recorded a 0-1 win on the road the last match-day, against Sheffield United. Despite being a newly-promoted team, they have impressed fans as well as pundits alike. Even in their opener, the team gave title-holders Liverpool a run for their money, and that too at the Anfield.
Considering the attacking prowess of both sides, we are backing both teams to get on the score sheet. The BTTS is priced at 1.57 Odds by 1xbet.
ATLETICO MADRID vs VILLARREAL
Atletico Madrid is trying to build on their stellar form from the last season of La Liga. To be frank, they have been doing an excellent job in that so far after two unbeaten league appearances in the schedule.
They fired up their start to the new edition with a 6-1 win at home against Granada. However, their previous encounter was on the road and finished in a goalless draw with Huesca last time out.
Villarreal cannot complain as they have lost only one of the four clashes so far this term. But that only loss came in their only outing in the league this season.
Their loss on the road came against Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid does not differ from them. However, The Yellow Submarine will visit on the back of a 3-1 win at home against Alaves in the schedule.
Diego Simeone and his men have lost none of their last 17 La Liga fixtures in their overall schedule. So, when Villarreal visits Wanda Metropolitano, they will be up for a task.
There is no doubt that the home win in full-time is the most expected result of the match. As mentioned earlier, Atletico Madrid has lost none of their last 17 league clashes. Besides, they are unbeaten in the past four h2h meetings with the Yellow Submarines.
Based on these stats, it is clear that the tip for Atletico Madrid to win will probably be a suitable option to consider for the upcoming match. The home to win odd is priced at 1.57 odds by Betwinner.
UDINESE vs ROMA
After that bizarre administrative mistake, Roma have lost match to Hellas Verona by default 3-0 even though the game ended without a winner. Now they are looking for the first win of the season at Dacia Arena against Udinese.
The hosts have been struggling as well, so we are surely going to see two very motivated sides who wish to end the bad cycle. As expected, the visitors are favorites for the win.
Udinese and AS Roma have met 56 times in the past and previous stats are heavily going in favour of team from the capital. Roma were victorious in 30 encounters, Udinese in 16.
The Zebras completely shocked and surprised the opposition last season though at Olimpico, winning the match 2-0. That duel took place in early July this year.
If we ignore above mentioned loss, Roma were victorious against Udinese six times in a row as hosts. Situation is a little bit different when it comes to Dacia Arena though.
The Zebras are looking completely clueless on the pitch, so it might be time for manager Luca Gotti to make some significant changes. Both strikers Okaka and Lasagna are not even getting an opportunity to score so far.
Roma on the other hand looked just fine against the reigning Serie A champions. They had the lead in two occasions, but The Old Lady came back twice thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo’s goals. Jordan Veretout was a bit silent in the previous campaign, but the French midfielder opened this season with two goals.
Paulo Fonseca’s team definitely has the quality and we feel it’s time for their first win. Roma to win at full time is priced at 1.61 odds by 22bet.
