BATE Borisov vs Chelsea
Thursday 8^th November 2018, Haradski Stadium
UEFA Europa League – Group L Qualifier

BT Sport 2 – 17:55 GMT.

Chelsea will travel to Belarus to face BATE in the UEFA Europa League.

The hosts are hoping to keep their hopes alive as they currently sit on three points from as many matches. The visitors will be looking to continue their perfect run and confirm qualification with a win on Thursday evening.

BATE are priced at 13/2 to pull off a big surprise on home turf by SkyBet. BATE are running things this season in the Belarusian premier League but have struggled to convert that into their European campaign. They currently sit bottom of Group L with one win that came against Videoton. Jasse Tuominen was amongst the scoresheet in their opener and is their biggest goal threat to Chelsea’s defence. He is priced at 7/2 to score anytime.

They will have a tough test trying to keep out a Chelsea attack that is flying in the Premier League. For them to, somehow, pull off a clean sheet SkyBet are offering 7/1.

Chelsea are heavy favourites for this encounter with a price of 2/5. Their dominance of Group L is clear with nine points from three matches. In their previous outing against BATE, Ruben Loftus-Cheek was the hat-trick hero as Chelsea came out 3-1 victors. Whilst Maurizio Sarri’s selection is up for debate, Loftus-Cheek is likely to feature and is 6/1 to score first. The presence of Eden Hazard is still unsure as he returns to full fitness.

The goal from their last match against BATE is the only they have conceded so far in the tournament. Their depth and strength at the back is one of the reasons they are one of the favourites to win the whole tournament. SkyBet are offering great odds of 5/4 for Chelsea to win to nil and odds of 2/1 for Chelsea to win both halves.

BATE Borisov vs Chelsea will be televised on BT Sport 2 and will kick off at the earlier time of 17:55.

Prediction: Bate Borisov 0 – 2 Chelsea

– The visitors will want to confirm qualification that night and have too much quality for BATE.

Juventus vs Manchester United – Match Preview

Juventus vs Manchester United
Tuesday 7^th November 2018, Allianz Stadium
UEFA Champions League – Group H Qualifier

BT Sport 2 – 20:00 GMT

Manchester United will travel to Italy this Wednesday to face Juventus in the group stages of the UEFA Champions League.

Mourinho’s side will be looking to avenge the 1-0 loss they suffered at Old Trafford a couple weeks ago. Meanwhile The Old Lady will be hoping to keep their perfect record of maximum points and no goals conceded.

The hosts are priced at 8/13 to win on home turf by SkyBet. They are the current league leaders on Group H with three wins from three. Their vast plethora of talented players is frightening and no more frightening than Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese attacker didn’t manage to get his name on the scoresheet on his emotional return to Old Trafford but is still favourite to score this Wednesday. SkyBet have priced him at 11/4 to score first.

Their defensive record is rather impeccable. They are yet to concede two or more goals at home all season and have kept a clean sheet in 36% of their league matches this season as well as not conceding a goal yet in the Champions League. SkyBet have priced them at 6/4 to win to nil and EVENS to keep a clean sheet.

Manchester United are priced at 5/1 to cause an upset in Turin. United have not had the ideal start to both their league and European campaigns. Mourinho is yet to find any consistency and much bad press is circling the club. One shining star of recent has been Anthony Martial. The Frenchman has found his way back into the starting eleven and is playing some fine football. Having found the back of the net recently, he is priced at 7/2 to score anytime.

Striker Romelu Lukaku has been struggling as of late and is in need of a confidence boost. He is priced at 3/1 to turn his form around and score. Manchester United are going to have a tough time away from home however they have the players to give Juventus a tough test. If you fancy them, you get great odds on Manchester United to win and both teams to score at 11/1.

The referee for this match will be Ovidiu Hategan. This game has the potential to become rather feisty, so I’d expect a few cards on both sides.

Juventus vs Manchester United will be televised on BT Sport 2 and kicks off at 20:00.

Prediction: Juventus 2 – 0 Manchester United

– Juventus are one of Europes strongest sides, especially at home. Man Utd will have to improve on recent performances.

Suggested Tips – Juventus vs Manchester United – (BET365)

Correct Score – Juventus to win 2-0 – (link no longer available).

Suggested Tips – Juventus vs Manchester United – (SKYBET)

Both Players to Score – Cristiano Ronaldo & Anthony Martial – 8/1.

Cristiano Ronaldo to take 3+ shots on target – 1/1.
Popular RequestABet – Ronaldo & Pogba both to score and be carded – 100/1.

Manchester City vs Southampton – Match Preview

Manchester City vs Southampton
Sunday 4^th November 2018
FA Premier League, The Etihad Stadium

Kick-Off: 15:00 GMT

Manchester City and Southampton will lock horns this weekend in Premier League action.

Both sides are operating at different ends of the table. The hosts currently top the league, with eight wins from ten matches. Meanwhile the visitors are checking their shoulders with only one win all season so far.

Manchester City are clear favourites for this one, priced at 1/9 by SkyBet. The league leaders will also have the added advantage of playing in front of a home crowd, an advantage that has seen them score twice or more in every home match this season. Amongst the goals has been Sergio Aguero. The striker has already scored six goals this season and was unfortunate to not score in their last outing. The Argentinian is 9/4 to open the scoring.

Their impressive home form has seen them score 18 goals from five matches. The score 3+ goals, SkyBet are offering odds of 4/9. In those five home matches they have also only conceded twice. City are at great odds to win to nil priced at 8/13.

Southampton are priced at a huge 20/1 to win this Sunday. They are currently only two points from the drop zone and have been their usual frustrating selves for since the opening day. With their only win coming away at Crystal Palace and goals looking scarce, the saints will be hoping for a confidence boost. Most likely to bag for his side and having scored 50% of all their goals this season is Danny Ings. The ex-Liverpool man has scored three goals this campaign and is 10/3 to score anytime.

Southampton have failed to score in their last five matches and have conceded eight in the process. City have slaughtered a fair few teams already with big score lines and I could see this weekend being another visit to the slaughterhouse. If you think the Saints are capable of pulling off a miracle then you’ll be tempted to back Southampton to win and both teams to score at 50/1.

The referee for this match will be Lee Mason. The official has averaged 38 booking points from his five Premier League matches.

Manchester City vs Southampton will not be televised in the UK and kicks off at 15:00. Highlights can be watched tonight on BBC 1 Match of the Day 2.

Prediction: Manchester City 4 – 0 Southampton.

– They have far too much quality to drop any points this Sunday.
