After delivering winning selections in each of his last three featured columns, SlipsTips is back to share a Booking Points double from the Bundesliga on Sunday.
Bochum vs Cologne (Sunday, 16:30)
Bochum will be bidding to snap a six-game losing run in the Bundesliga when they come up against Cologne on Sunday afternoon.
That wretched start to the season prompted the hosts’ hierarchy to relieve Thomas Reis of his duties this week, with Heiko Butscher taking temporary charge for the time being.
In contrast, Cologne have tasted defeat just once across the opening stretch of the season, with Steffen Baumgart ‘s side going down 1-0 at home to league leaders Union last Sunday.
I successfully sided with cards in the Billy Goats’ aforementioned loss last weekend and I’m going to take a similar approach here by siding with 30+ Booking Points as the first half of an even-money (SkyBet) double.
These two slides are both averaging 1.83 yellow cars per-game this season, with nine of the pair’s 12 collective German top-flight tussles this term yielding a minimum of 30+ Booking Points.
What’s more, referee Bastian Dankert has dished out six cards in each of his last two domestic assignments, and it’s also worth noting that the German whistler has covered the 30+ line in 11 of his last 15 top-tier outings.
Hoffenheim vs Freiburg (Sunday 18:30)
Both Hoffenheim and Freiburg will be looking to continue their positive starts to the Bundesliga season when the pair lok horns at PreZero Arena on Sunday night.
Die Kraichgauerhave made a strong start to life under new boss Andre Breitenreiter, winning four of their opening six league games, a return that sees them occupying a place in the top-six.
As for Freiburg, they continue to punch above their weight under Christian Streich’s astute management, with the Black Forest outfit surveying the standings from the lofty heights of third-place.
With a closely-fought fixture between two clubs in fine fettle anticipated, I’ll complete the wager with 30+ match Booking Points in this Sunday night showdown.
Hoffenheim’s 2.83 yellow cards per-game tally is the second-highest in the Bundesliga after six rounds of fixtures, while four of Freiburg’s last five league games have featured at least three match cards.
With this in mind, as well as the fact that referee Deniz Aytekin has dished out 3+ cards in six of his last seven Bundesliga outings, I’ll happily round off the even-money (SkyBet) double with 30+ match Booking Points.
