Football Betting Tips

Lyon look the best bet away at Angers. The hosts are in a poor spell, losing five of their last six league games, and their defence is leaking, with no clean sheet in five of the last six and six straight at home. Lyon are fourth and usually do well in this matchup, losing only one of the last ten meetings. Even if Lyon are not flying, Angers look fragile enough to exploit.

Bologna look the best bet away at Cremonese. They are in strong form on the road, winning four of their last five away league games and arriving on a run of three straight away wins. Cremonese are struggling badly, winning one of their last ten at home and losing seven of their last nine overall. They also lack goals at home, often failing to score, which plays into Bologna’s hands.

Livingston haven’t won a game since August and are destined for relegation this season, so they could fall foul of a Hearts side looking to topple the Old Firm. The visitors have won three of their last four games and have won their last five meetings with Livi.

Union Berlin look the best bet at home to St Pauli. The visitors are dreadful away, losing five of their last six trips, and they struggle to score, averaging 0.71 goals per away game and failing to score more than anyone in the league. St Pauli are also leaking goals, with clean sheets rare, so Union should have enough to win.

Charlotte are unbeaten on their own patch this season and they should be supremely confident of seeing off Philadelphia. The Union have lost their opening five games of the campaign and their dismal start looks set to continue.

Inter Miami won 3-2 at New York City last time out, and they host an Austin side who have scored in defeats at Real Salt Lake and Charlotte this term. The hosts have conceded a lot of chances this term, and they host an Austin side that has created 4.9 xG in five games.

New York City should come out on top of this clash at Yankee Stadium. The hosts have won three of their last four in MLS, while St Louis have failed to score three times in the same period and look to be up against it.

There looks a strong chance that both teams will score in this one. That has happened in four of the Red Bulls’ last six matches and it’s four MLS games since Cincinnati last recorded a shutout.

Volendam have lost four of their last five matches, but they’ve put up a fight against the top teams this term. The hosts have seen both teams score in all six of their home meetings with the top seven, with four of those featuring three or more goals. Feyenoord have seen over 2.5 goals in 69% of their away trips, so this should be an open affair.

Heerenveen have taken 10 points from their last four matches, and they host bottom side Heracles, who have lost 12 of 14 away trips. The visitors have conceded four goals in five of their last six away trips. The hosts have scored 22 goals in their clashes with the bottom six this term, while Heracles have shipped 26 goals in eight visits to top-half teams.

Huesca have conceded 13 goals across their last four games, losing three and drawing once. They head to play-off chasing Las Palmas, and the hosts’ fine home form should see them trouble Huesca. The visitors have lost 5-3 at Malaga and 4-2 at Granada across their last two trips, so back goals to follow in this clash.

Westerlo have won five of their seven home meetings with sides below them in the standings this term, including a 2-1 victory over Charleroi in February. The visitors tailed off with six defeats in seven, and they conceded 16 times in that run.

Aaron A: Lyon have won their last six meetings with Angers and the trend is taken to continue with the hosts having lost their focus with little left to play for. Angers have suffered defeat in five of their last six league fixtures, which includes back-to-back home losses to nil against Lille and Nice.

Ian: Cremonese ended a run of 15 Serie A matches without a win when they saw off Parma 2-0 before the international break, but they could still be vulnerable against Bologna on their own patch. Bologna look set for a mid-table finish but they have won four of their last five away games.

Joe: Eintracht Frankfurt need a strong end to the season if they are to secure European football. The hosts have won their last three home games and should be too strong for a Cologne side who have won just one of their last nine.

Aaron: Hosts Pisa are without a clean sheet in nine at home, while the visitors have conceded in visits to Lecce, Fiorentina, Genoa, and Parma this season. These two sides shared a 2-2 draw in Turin earlier in the campaign, so back more goals here.

Alex: Inter have failed to beat Atalanta and Bodo/Glimt in their last three home games, while Roma have only lost two of their last nine games.

Jack: Monaco won six in a row heading into the international break, and they meet a Marseille side that have failed to win four of their last five on the road.

Back both teams to score when Valencia host Celta Vigo. Celta are reliable in attack, scoring in 13 of their last 15 league games and in seven straight, and their recent matches keep landing BTTS. Valencia are strong at Mestalla but rarely keep clean sheets there, failing in nine of their last 11 home league games. The head-to-head also leans heavily towards goals at both ends, with BTTS landing in five of the last six meetings.

Metz and Nantes have struggled defensively, conceding 60 and 45 goals respectively this season, making clean sheets unlikely. The sides are closely matched in the table, separated by three points, and Nantes arrive on a poor run with 11 defeats in 13 games, increasing the chances of both sides finding the net.

Back both teams to score when Dundee host Celtic. Celtic are the league’s top scorers and regularly hit two, while recent matches suggest they are not always watertight, especially away. Dundee keep conceding at home, without a clean sheet in six straight, but they can contribute too. BTTS has landed in seven of Celtic’s last nine league games and in four of their last five away trips, so goals at both ends look likely.

West Ham drew 2-2 with Brentford in the last round of the cup, and they followed that with a 1-1 draw against Man City at home. The last four meetings between these sides have seen BTTS land, and with the pair expected to rotate, back both to concede.

Sevilla look the best bet away at Oviedo. The hosts are bottom, short on confidence and struggle badly for goals, especially at home. Oviedo average just 0.43 goals per home game and have failed to score more than anyone in the league. They also concede regularly, with no clean sheet in ten of the last 12. Sevilla are not flying either, but they have more quality and should take advantage.

Westerlo have won five of their seven home meetings with sides below them in the standings this term, including a 2-1 victory over Charleroi in February. The visitors tailed off with six defeats in seven, and they conceded 16 times in that run.

Inter Milan need to recover from their recent blip, but the hosts have only kept one clean sheet in their last seven home matches across all competitions. The Nerazzurri have struggled to keep clean sheets at home to the top sides in Italy, but they meet a Roma side who have lost four of their five visits to the top seven.

Monaco have won seven of their last eight Ligue 1 games, and they’ve put together a four-game winning streak at home. They host a Marseille side that has lost all five visits to the top seven this term.

Balogun failed to score on international duty with the US, but he has seen his form for Monaco step up. The striker has scored in six of his last seven appearances for his club side, finding the net in their last three home games.

Roma have suffered back-to-back 2-1 defeats on their travels, and all 10 of their defeats this term have come by a single goal. Inter have conceded exactly once in their previous three Serie A matches, so back them to secure a 2-1 win.

Monaco have conceded in four of their previous six victories, while the visitors have scored in five of their last six Ligue 1 games. The visitors have suffered four defeats by a single goal on their travels this term, and Monaco have scored at least twice in six consecutive Ligue 1 outings.

Monaco have won seven of their last eight Ligue 1 games, and they’ve put together a four-game winning streak at home. They host a Marseille side that has lost all five visits to the top seven this term.

Woking fell to defeat at promotion hopefuls York City at the weekend, but they have won five of their last six at Kingfield Stadium and should coast to victory against an Altrincham side with nine defeats from their last 12 away fixtures.

Burgos are pushing for promotion to the Spanish top flight and hold the third-best home record in the division. They have taken 16 points from the last 18 available at Estadio El Plantion, and another three-point haul is on the cards against Ceuta, who have lost five of their last six trips.

Both teams to score has landed in eight of Bahia’s last nine home games and more goals should be on the cards when Athletico PR visit Salvador, with the visitors scoring in ten successive away games but only keeping three clean sheets in that run.

Barracas Central are worth taking at odds-against to beat Sarmiento Junin, who have lost all five away games in the Argentina Liga Profesional this year. The hosts have won their last three home games by an aggregate scoreline of 6-2 and can take the points on Thursday.

Millwall are closing the gap on the automatic promotion spots in the Championship and they can upset the odds to add to their points tally against second-placed Middlesbrough on Good Friday. Boro are winless in their last four home games and face a Lions outfit with 13 points from the last 15 available on their travels.

Norwich have won seven of their last eight Carrow Road assignments  and can keep their faint play-off ambitions alive against Portsmouth. The visitors have only taken one point from their last six games and were demolished 6-1 at QPR last time out.

Elche are the only La Liga side yet to win away from home in the league and the division’s worst travelling side could receive another blow in their battle against relegation. They have lost their last six away games on the spin and hosts Rayo Vallecano are unbeaten in their last four home league games.

Manchester City lifted the EFL Cup before the international break and should keep their FA Cup hopes alive against Liverpool. The Reds have lost three of their last four away games and were beaten 3-0 here in November, while Pep Guardiola’s side have won seven of their last nine at the Etihad.

Verona are nine points adrift from Serie A safety and their situation is unlikely to improve against a resurgent Fiorentina outfit. La Viola are unbeaten in five games and look set to inflict a sixth defeat in seven games on their struggling hosts.

Monaco are only three points adrift of Marseille going into gameweek 28 in the Ligue 1 season and they are chasing a seventh successive league win. They have beaten Lyon, Lens, and PSG in this time and Marseille, who have lost three of their last five away games, could be Les Monegasques’ next victims.
