FEB 20: MONDAY FOOTBALL TIPS
THEY make odd bedfellows but tonight they could provide you with a nice double act.
I’m talking about Brentford and Nantes who look decent-priced homes against Carlisle and Metz respectively.
So let’s start with the buzzing Bees. They were well tipped for promotion at the start of the season and can still make it to the play-offs despite a run of one win in nine.
They beat Wycombe 5-2 in their last home outing and before that went down 3-2 Huddersfield after leading 2-0. Carlisle were thumped 4-0 at Hartlepool on their last trip and held 0-0 by Tranmere last time out.
In fact Carlisle’s last four defeats have been away from home and tonight they’ll be without banned top scorer Lee Miller.
Brentford have netted eight in their last three games and if they can make chances they should outscore Carlisle. Back the Bees at 6-5 with Coral.
Nantes have won seven out of eight at home, with five clean sheets, as they bid to win promotion back to the French top flight.
They are 1-1 with Paddy Power and Bet365 as they chase victory against a lowly Metz outfit who have taken just one point in their last 12.
Best bets of the night could be Benfica at Guimaraes. Benfica are bidding for nine league wins in a row and interestingly have scored in every game they’ve played this season.
I was thinking about them -1 but Guimaraes are unbeaten in five at home and Benfica have won three of their last four away by a goal. So simply back Benfica at 3-5 with BetVictor.
If they win by one the man to get the goal could be Oscar Cardozo who has netted 12 in 11 games. He is 4-1 at Bet365 and BetVictor to break the deadlock.
There is one game in La Liga between two strugglers, Real Zaragoza v Real Betis. It’s a tough one to call and draw at 23-10 at BetVictor could be the way to go. Zaragoza are 13-8 at BetVictor with Betis 9-5 at Stan James and Ladbrokes.
Zaragoza are unlikely to escape the drop zone but won last time out at Espanyol after improved performances against Vallecano and Real Madrid. Betis also won last time out against Athletic Bilbao but it was their first in five and consistency had been their problem.
Recommendations
Brentford
(6-5, Coral)
Nantes
(1-1, Paddy Power, Bet365)
Cardozo to score first
