What a beautiful match week that was in UCL, I took down a total 4 - 2 team parlays, which gave the bankroll another nice pop. I see Bason is in agreement on these plays below which is always nice, and he is trending hot right now as well. I like the situational , and the statistics on these:
REAL BETIS/BAYER LEVERKUSEN OVER 2.5/3 -115
This line has caught some major steam, the price above is around -140 now, the 2.5 is juiced to -175. From a situational play we get 2 teams fighting for the top spot in the group. Bayer comes into this after getting pasted 5-1 by Bayern Munich in Bundesliga. I think they will be eager to get back on the pitch. I don't care if its pick up sticks, or professional football, when you get smashed like that you want to right your wrongs quickly! Sometimes these Europa matches are tough as you don't know the motivation levels of the teams , and how much they care. I don't see that issue in this one. Bayer has found the net in 13 straight games in all competitions, with 8 of those games being multi goal games. In total 8 of the last 9 games featured at least 3 goals. Real Betis has scored in 7 of their last 8 contests, scoring 17 goals in that time frame. During that same period they have given up a total of 10 goals, and have only kept 2 clean sheets. Both teams play free flowing, attacking football. In the Europa League this matchup pits the #1 (Betis) and #2 (Lev) ranked goal scoring teams, and they are #1 (Lev) & #4 (Betis) in Shots on Target. Given the attacking propensity of these teams, and their goal scoring consistency I think we will have plenty of chances of them finding the net!
PSV/MONACO OVER 2.5 - 125
This is getting bought up as well, the number is up to -138. I am a fan of PSV, they are very nice on the eyes as far as style goes, and are a fun team to watch. The team from Eindhoven has scored in 17 of their last 18 games, they have 2 goals or more in 7 of their last 9 games, and all 9 of these games have gone over the total of 2.5. Over this period, PSV alone has 22 goals scored. One can't overlook the home supremacy of the Dutch squad, they have only lost 1 game at home since January of 2021, they have built a fortress at their home park. Now Monaco comes to town , a team that doesn't travel well, and is not in the best form. Monaco may be at the top of the Europa group, but they have been piss poor in their domestic league sitting in 10th place. At least 3 goals have been scored in 4 of the last 5 Monaco games, and Monaco has let in at least 1 goal in 12 of their last 14 games played. This pits the top 2 teams in the group fighting for the lead. I think PSV finds the net in bunches in this one, and Monaco is capable of pitching in for the cause with 1 as well. This has the makings of a 3-1 game to me.
GOOD LUCK , LETS KEEP MAKING MONEY!
