Stoke City vs Derby County
Wednesday 28th November 2018
SkyBet Championship, BET365 Stadium

Live on Sky Sports Football – Kick-Off: 20:00 GMT

Stoke City will host promotion hopefuls Derby County in midweek SkyBet Championship action.

Stoke are still struggling to climb up the table despite the strength of their squad. Meanwhile, Derby are also trying to find some consistency to put pressure on the top two.

Stoke are priced at 11/8 to win this Wednesday evening. The Potters have become a frustrated outfit so far with four draws in their last five matches. The odds on yet another draw in this match are 23/10. They have not been the most exciting team to watch either with seven of their last eight matches having under 2.5 goals. The odds on another under 2.5 goals match is 8/11.

Going forward, Stoke will be hoping Benik Afobe can add to his tally this week. The striker is currently on 4 goals and two assists for the season and is 4/1 to score first. Gary Rowett’s side have taken a while to warm up in matches, with four of their last six goals coming after the hour mark. SkyBet are offering 11/10 for more goals to be scored in the second half.

Derby are priced at a tempting 2/1 to get three points away from home. The Rams will be looking to make it two back to back wins as they continue to put pressure on the top spots. Jack Marriot has been the shining star in Lampard’s squad and has scored six goals in his previous eight games. The Striker is 7/4 to score anytime.

Despite their impressive attacking efforts with 27 goals in 18 matches, their defence has not been up to the same standard – especially on the road. With 21 goals conceded this season and no clean sheet away from home this season, I’d say backing both teams to score would be a clever bet. For Derby to win and both teams to find the net, you can get odds of 11/2.

The referee for this match will be Darren England. The official has averaged 38.6 booking points in his 11 Championship matches.

Stoke City vs Derby County will be televised on Sky Sports Football HD and kicks off at 19:45.

Prediction: Stoke City 1 – 2 Derby County

– Both sides seem to cancel each other out but with form, you have to tip the visitors.

Paris Saint-Germain vs Liverpool – Match Preview

Paris Saint Germain vs Liverpool
Wednesday 28th November 2018
UEFA Champions League – Group C Qualifier, Parc de Princes

Live on BT Sport 2 – Kick-Off: 20:00 GMT

Paris Saint-Germain vs Liverpool – Two titans of European football clash in UEFA Champions League action as Paris Saint-Germain host Liverpool.

The result will have a dramatic outcome for both clubs’ chances of progressing through the group stages. With just one point between the two teams and Napoli leading the group, all is at stake in this huge Group C match.

PSG are priced at 23/20 by SkyBet to win in front of a home crowd. The Ligue 1 leaders are tearing things up in the domestic competitions and have their eyes firmly set on European glory. Their attacking force could take a possible hit with both Neymar Jr and Kylian Mbappe both injury doubts ahead of the match. Edinson Cavani will be the talisman in their possible absence and is priced at 9/2 to break the deadlock.

Their defensive capabilities have been really tested in Group C, with seven goals conceded in 4 matches. That’s the same amount of goals they’ve conceded over 14 league matches. They face a frighteningly potent attack and are priced at a huge 4/1 to win to nil – worth backing if you think Klopp’s men will have an off day.

Liverpool are priced at 2/1 to come out victorious on Wednesday night. Klopp’s men will hope to repeat their performance in their last fixture against PSG where they ran out 3-2 winners. While they still boast an unbeaten record in the Premier League, their European campaign was slightly soured by a 2-0 loss to Red Star Belgrade in their last outing.

Roberto Firmino was on the scoresheet last time against the French outfit and is 2/1 to score anytime. With Mohammed Salah and Sadio Mane also fit and reading for the match, they will be dangerous – especially on the counter attack.

When these two lock horns expect plenty of action and goals. SkyBet are offering 1/2 for over 2.5 goals and 2/5 for both teams to score. If you fancy some longer odds then both teams to score in both halves is 9/2.

The referee for this match will be Szymon Marciniak. With so much riding on the outcome of this fixture, it could turn into a feisty encounter.

The match will be televised on BT Sport 2 and kicks off at 20:00.

Prediction: Paris Saint Germain 3 – 2 Liverpool

– Home advantage could be key as they must get a result. A reverse score line from the reverse fixture.

Suggested Tips – Paris Saint-Germain vs Liverpool – (BET365)

  • Correct Score – Paris St Germain win 3-2 – (link no longer available).

Suggested Tips – Paris Saint-Germain vs Liverpool – (SKYBET)

  • Both Players to score – Edison Cavani and Mohammed Salah to both score – 4/1.
  • Popular RequestABet – Neymar to score from outside the area and Liverpool to score a penalty – 100/1. 
  • @FootyAccums RequestABets – Neymar & Firmino to score and Marquinhos & Henderson to be carded – 125/1.
  • Price Boost – Player to score outside the penalty area – Neymar – 12/1.

Burnley vs Newcastle United – Match Preview

Burnley vs Newcastle United
Monday 26th November 2018
FA Premier League, Turf Moor

Live on Sky Sports Main Event – Kick-Off: 20:00 GMT

Burnley will entertain Newcastle in Premier League action this Monday night.

Both sides are struggling for form this season and have just two wins each so far.

The hosts are priced at 9/5 by SkyBet for this encounter. The Burnley faithful will be hoping for a solid performance despite their lacklustre results at home. With just one win in five home matches they will have to tighten up defensively as they have conceded an average of two goals a game. They enter the match on the back of a clean sheet and have a confident Joe Hart between the sticks. Burley are priced at 15/8 to keep a clean sheet.

Going forward the hosts have found difficulty identifying their talisman. Johann Gudmundsson has two goals and four assists to his name so far this season. The Icelandic international is 3/1 to score anytime. Another attacker who is yet to showcase his full potential is Chris Wood. Always an aerial threat, Wood is priced at 14/1 to score a header – very good odds.

Newcastle are priced at 17/10, as the bookmakers struggle to find a favourite. Rafa Benitez has come under a lot of scrutiny this season however his team have begun to yield results. They managed their first and second victory of the season in their last two outings. Summer acquisition Salomon Rondon has finally found his feet in black and white and managed a brace in their last match against Bournemouth. The Venezuelan target man is priced at 11/2 to open the scoring.

However, Newcastle’s away form makes for dire reading. With 3 draws and 5 losses on the road, they are going to have to rely on their rigid defence to hold out the hosts. The Magpies have the best defence in the bottom 8 and are a tough side to crack. SkyBet have priced them at 10/3 to win to nil.

The referee for this match will be Anthony Taylor. The official has averaged 35 booking points in his 12 Premier League matches thus far.

Burnley vs Newcastle United will be televised on Sky Sports Main Event and kicks off at 20:00.

Prediction: Burnley 1 – 1 Newcastle United 1

– It’s hard to split these two sides who are both defensively minded.

Suggested Tips – Burnley vs Newcastle United – (BET365)

  • Correct score – Draw – 1-1 – (link no longer available).

Suggested Tips – Burnley vs Newcastle United – (SKYBET)

  • Price Boost – Player to score a header – Chris Wood – 14/1.
  • Popular RequestABet – Rondon to score a header and Burnley to score a penalty – 100/1.
  • Scorecast Boost (Double Chance) – Chris Wood to score first and either Burnley to win 2-1 or Draw 1-1 – 20/1.
