Benfica vs Leverkusen betting tips by Gustav

With a narrow 1:0 defeat away against Zenit two weeks ago, Benfica unfortunately lost all the competitive motives in the group having nothing to play for in the last round. Five matches in Champions League, they got one victory, a draw and two defeats, which won’t be enough even for a Europa League ticket race.

As for domestic league, things are looking much better, with the team having four victories in a row, improved morale and first position with three points more than their biggest rival from Porto. Home side will be without suspended Benfica will be without the suspended central defender Luisao (5/0) who was sent off against Zenit in last round and defensive midfielder Andreas Samaris (5/0) as he picked up third yellow card in the competition. Left back Eliseu (3/0) and defender Silvio (no appearance this season) both remain absent with injuries. With nothing to play for, Benfica is almost sure to give some playing time to youngsters in order to get much needed experience.

Leverkusen, on the other hand, might feel like robbed in the previous Champions League game, as the team had more of the ball possession and much more chances created, but still suffered a narrow 1:0 home defeat against Monaco, French side that actually had only two good chances in the match.

Even so, Germans remained at the first position in the group and in case of a victory here, they have a chance to secure
the first position disregarding the outcome of other match. In any case, they also can’t end up third and playing in Europa League. Generally, in domestic league they aren't showing their full potential, with the team being currently only fourth, behind Bayern, Wolfsburg and Augsburg. Right back Giulio Donati (11/) is doubtful, while Roberto Hilbert could again start at his position. Castro will play in midfield with Stefan Reinartz (12/0) still injured. Central defender and sometimes defensive midfielder, Kyriakos Papadopoulos (5/1) is still out injured as well.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Benfica’s last 3 games in the Champions League. If Benfica had something to play for here, they would probably be close favorites, but in this case, they will probably end up with with a negative result. Leverkusen has much bigger motivation in this one and is now much closer to get the victory, even though the draw still can’t be excluded.

Bet: Leverkusen 0 Asian handicap

Galatasaray vs Arsenal betting tips by Neuro

Galatasaray disappointed a bit in their 2:0 loss away to Anderlecht two weeks ago, as the team had a chance to get the Europa League ticket with a victory here, but showed very little positive things in fourth consecutive Champions League game.

Team completely under performed for whole competition, with the only point being taken at home against Anderlecht in 1:1 draw in the first round –game that should have been won in case the team was aiming for the first two positions. Anyhow, their turned their attention to domestic league already weeks ago, but the team is yet to reach their fullest potential – currently they are second with a point behind leaders from Besiktas. Home side has central midfielders Selcuk Inan (16/0) suspended and Blerim Dzemaili (11/) sidelined due injury, so the team will have certain changes in the middle. Up front, Umut Bulut is expected to attack together with Burak Yilmaz and
supported by Wesley Sneijder behind them.

Arsenal took a 2:0 victory at home against Dortmund in the previous round, even though the team had secured their ticket for the next stage already after first four rounds. Sanogo and Sanchez were goalscorers at the start of each halftime, while the Germans actually played better in both periods, but without scoring any.

Their injury list seems to be getting longer and longer, with coach Arsene Wenger having constantly out midfielders Mesut Ozil (8/1), Jack Wilshere (12/1) and Abou Diaby (no performance yet) and goalkeeper David Ospina (1/0) fixedly out injured. Forward Olivier Giroud (6/2) is not eligible to play in Champions League, while Wenger confirmed that confirmed that Alexis Sanchez and Laurent Koscielny will both be rested, so Calum Chambers and Lukas Podolski will get the starting positions. Defensive midfielder Mikel Arteta (10/1), play maker Tomas Rocisky (5/0) and central defender/left back Nacho Monreal (14/0) are recovering from injuries and probably won’t play here.

Galatasaray have lost their last 4 matches in the Champions League. Galatasaray have conceded at least 2 goals in their last 4 matches in the Champions League. Arsenal have scored at least 2 goals in their last 4 matches in the Champions League.

Open and relaxed game is expected from both sides here. Turkish side will surely want to leave a better impression in the last match, especially cause they are awaiting very well known and strong club with great reputation. Arsenal, on the other side, will surely field up some youngsters who will do anything to prove their worth to Arsene Wenger.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Basel vs Liverpool betting tips by Neuro |

Liverpool is playing far away from the potential they have and something that the fans would expected them to, but tonight they have a chance to make amends and give some more meaning to their season in case the team gets a victory here and get the second position for the next phase of Champions League.

After five rounds played in European best competition, they have only one victory, a draw and three defeats, record that would mean exclusion in many other groups, but as for this one – they are two points behind second placed Basel and need a victory now to continue their run in Champions League. As for Premier League, team is unimpressive so far, but at least they now have three matches undefeated run having two victories and a draw. Coach Brendan Rodgers may opt for more experienced players as this seems to be their most important game of the season. This could mean that left back Jose Enrique might be given a start, while striker Mario Balotelli (11/1) remains injured, but given the way he plays in this season – this might no be a blow for the Reds.

Basel didn’t manage to make a surprise in a home game against Real Madrid before two weeks, suffering a 0:1 narrow defeat. However, thanks to a draw between Ludogorets and Liverpool, they still remained second at the table and now need only a point here in order to progress to the next stage.

Despite a defeat there, they actually left a very good impression as the team didn’t look like weaker at all in comparison to Spaniards. Generally, it could be said that the Swiss team is in a very good form, as they have six victories in a row in domestic competition, combined with a good performance against Real and 4:0 home crushing of Ludogorets. Important striker Marco Streller (12/6) is already out for quite sometime, same as central defender Ivan Ivanov. Midfielder Giovanni Sio had some problems but should be in contention here. Matias Delgado scored twice this weekend and might be given a start ahead of youngster Breel Embolo. Players like Suchy, Frei and Safari were
rested this weekend.

Open game is expected here, at least it simply has to be open as the time progresses, no matter of the score. Liverpool has problems in attack, but they will have to start offensively from the first minute, something that should open up the game and leave many empty spaces for visiting side to threaten them.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Manchester City v Everton Betting Tips and Predictions

Football betting tips for Manchester City v
Everton in the Premier League on Saturday 6th December with expert free football tips. The last four days have proved to be very useful in determining the plausible outcome of this fixture.

Neither side has been particularly convincing this season on the whole, but a narrative is now starting to take shape. Seven goals on the road have supplanted Man City into second position ahead of their south coast pretenders, while Everton twice scored first but only took a combined point from Spurs and Hull.

Don’t be surprised if Everton repeat the trick at the Etihad on Saturday evening. They’ve scored 13 of their 24 goals this season in the first half and Romero Lukaku has contributed 5 of them. Considering this, selecting the Beast from Belgium himself to score seems like a good move. 

Despite Everton’s goalscoring prowess, Man City are clear favourites to win this match on Saturday evening. Sure, Everton haven’t failed to score away from home in the league since April. And sure, their sole away league defeat between that 2-0 defeat to Southampton and Sunday was only courtesy of Tyler Blackett’s derrière at Old Trafford in October. But Man City will almost certainly score more. The last time Everton played the Saturday evening fixture was that crazy 6-3 defeat to Chelsea and, while there won’t be nine goals this time around, expect a fair few.

Newcastle v Chelsea Betting Tips and Predictions

Newcastle vs Chelsea predictions and football betting tips for the Premier League match on Saturday 6th December. Newcastle will be looking to become the first team to beat Chelsea this season when the two sides meet at St James’ Park on Saturday.

A run of six consecutive wins in all competitions by the Magpies ended last weekend with a 1-0 away defeat at West Ham, followed by a 1-1 draw with Burnley on Tuesday. After a poor start to the season, Newcastle now sit 10th in the table and the pressure it would appear is off Alan Pardew for the time being. A surprise win over Chelsea would do the Newcastle manager’s job security no harm, although seems unlikely given the Magpies ever growing injury list.

Tim Krul, Gabriel Obertan and Siem de Jong are key absentees, although Captain Fabricio Colo ccini returns from injury. Alan Pardew will also be able to recall Moussa Sissoko and Jack Colback after the pair missed the draw at Turf Moor through suspension.

Similarly, Diego Costa missed Chelsea’s 3-0 midweek win against Tottenham through suspension and returns to the side. Chelsea’s goalless draw with Sunderland last week was the first time the Blues have failed to score this season. There’s plenty of attacking firepower in the side to cause Newcastle damage, but a possibility the Magpies may respond with at least one goal of their own.

Newcastle have won the last two fixtures between the sides at St James’ Park, although Chelsea won 3-0 the last time the teams played in February at Stamford Bridge. Eden Hazard scored a hat-trick that day and has scored four goals in three games against Newcastle.

Rennes vs Montpellier betting tips by Isaiah

Rennes celebrated their fourth consecutive victory just a couple of days ago against Nice on the road, taking a fairly deserved 2:1 three pointer. Not many offensive phases were seen on the field, but the visiting players did look like much more concrete and determined on the field.

N’tep has scored the opening goal in 12th minute, while Konradsen added second in 49th minute. Hosts were only able to reduce near the end of the game in 83rd via Cvitanich, but without threatening further more. In last nine matches Rennes has seven victories and two draws, as their great run saw the team climbing up to fifth position, just two points away from third placed Lyon. Midfielder Gelson Fernandes (15/0) comes back from suspension, but suffered a knock in training session and is doubtful for tonight’s game. Hosts rested few players during midweek, so Pedro Henrique, Ola Toivonen and Abdoulaye Doucoure will be well-rested for this match. Offensive midfielder Kamil Grosicki (9/0) is already counted as long term absentee.

Having in mind their quality, style of football and overall club’s potential, it seems that the mid table table for Montpellier will be everything they can achieve this season. Team comes from a home loss against St Etienne few days with a 0:2 result.

It was a match where the hosts showed very little, or better to say, almost no positive things, not being able to attack properly even once they had a man more when Diomande got excluded in 78th minute. Anyhow, as said, their objective goal is mid table team and it seems that they will end up their without much problems, but also without really being competitive against any stronger side, especially away from home where they have only one victory out of eight matches and only one goal scored. Midfielder Jean Deza (2/0) is suspended for tonight’s game, while first choice goalkeeper Geoffrey Jourdren (14/0) remains injured.

Rennes have kept a clean sheet in their last 4 home matches in Ligue 1. Rennes have won their last 4 home matches in Ligue 1. Rennes have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 home matches against Montpellier. Rennes plays close to perfectly at the moment, especially at home. They are surely aiming for a victory here and very poor travelers from Montpellier have slim chances to stay undefeated again such an in-form side.

Bet: Rennes Wins

Hannover vs Wolfsburg betting tips by Gustav

Hannover had another entertaining game last weekend, however unfortunately for them they stood without a point earned, coming from a 4:3 defeat away to Hoffenheim. Overall, it was a very open and attacking game in which, actually, the visitors have created more chances and had more of the ball possession.

However, once again the team got punished due too many defensive gaps, as they continue to have very unreliable last lineup, having conceded eighteen goals so far – generally big number for Hannover comparing to previous seasons. They have earned much more points at home, having four victories and two defeats and there is no doubt their target this time will be three pointer, even though they meet against very strong and in-form side. Goalkeeper Markus Miller and central defender Andre Hoffmann are both without performance this season and both continue to be sidelined with long term absentees. Defensive midfielder Leon Andreasen (6/1) and right back Marius Stankevicius (1/0) both remain out injured.

After two consecutive defeats, against Everton in Europa League and away to Schalke in Bundesliga two weeks ago, Wolfsburg managed to bounce back to winning ways with a narrow 1:0 home victory against Gladbach last weekend. Only goal was scored in 12th minute by Knoche.

Even though there were no goals scored till the end, the game remained very open, with both teams having many chances to score, as it seems that the fairer result would be 3:2 or 3:1. They kept the second position, with three points above Leverkusen, while the target for this game surely remains a victory. They have scored ten goals in last three away matches as it generally seems that the team likes to play away from home, probably having less pressure. Left back Ricardo Rodriguez could return here coming from injury. Defensive midfielder Luiz Gustavo comes back from suspension too, while defensive players Patrick Ochs and Felipe Lopes both remain long term absentees.

Hannover have won their last 5 matches against Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg have won 7 of their last 8 matches in the Bundesliga.
Hannover have scored at least 2 goals in their last 5 matches against Wolfsburg. Both teams will enter the game in order to win, both with attacking tactics.

Wolfsburg will search for a victory, but the
hosts are more than dangerous in front of their own crowd. Over goals remains valuable choice here, as it can come even after the first time easily.

Bet: Over 3 goals
