Bet of the Day
Dynamo Kyiv to beat Rangers @ 11/10
Rangers get their Champions League qualifying campaign with a trip to Poland to take on Dynamo Kyiv in the first leg of a third qualifying round contest and it looks a seriously tough ask for the Gers.
It’s been a messy summer at Ibrox, with ground renovations delayed, a lack of new signings and players trying to find a way out of the club.
It was no surprise to see the Gers struggle in their Scottish Premiership opener against Hearts at the weekend and Philippe Clement’s men look inadequately prepared for their clash with Dynamo.
Hearts won the shot count 19-9 at Tynecastle on Saturday, they created the better goalscoring opportunities and the Jambos were clearly the better side.
Of course, a strong case can be made for Hearts being the third best side in the Scottish top-flight, but Dynamo look at least a couple of spots above that level.
The Ukrainians hammered Partizan Belgrade 9-2 on aggregate in the previous round of Champions League qualifiers and 11/10 on offer about a Blue and Whites win at the Arena Lublin looks a huge price.
Longshot of the Day
Ludogorets to beat Qarabag @ 19/5
Ludogorets have successfully negotiated the opening two rounds of Champions League qualification and the Eagles look a good big-priced option in their first-leg contest at Qarabag.
Georgi Dermendzhiev’s side collected their 13th straight Bulgarian title last term and there have been some useful additions to the Ludogorets squad.
The Eagles have lost their two away games in this season’s Champions League, but they fixtures have come after Ludogorets had already taken a first-leg advantage and Dermendzhiev’s men were certainly the better side in a 1-0 defeat to Dinamo Minsk last time out.
Special of the Day
Over 2.5 goals in FCSB v Sparta Prague @ 4/5
There have been 26 goals in Steaua’s last eight matches and getting long on goals looks the play when FCSB travel to Sparta Prague.
Iron Sparta have seen the net bulge 18 times in their last five games and there were eight goals when Lars Friis’ men took on Shamrock Rovers in the previous round of the Champions League qualifiers.
Backing over 2.5 goals looks like the bet at the epet ARENA.
