Two Europa soccer picks - 07/02

[Wilforth]

The New Saints +0.5 (+110) LOSS
The New Saints (TNS) of Wales travel to Iceland to take on Fram. Given the potency of TNS' offense, an outright TNS upset can't be ruled out here. But since a TNS defeat is very highly unlikely, let's go with the TNS spread at plus value.

Motherwell/LLanelli UNDER 3 (-105) WIN
Motherwell are supposed to be the favorites in this game but they're currently severely depleted. At least 7 of their season regulars are out of his one. On their part, Llanelli are a decent road team with a modest defensive unit. Given Motherwell's current travails and Llanelli's decent road form, one expects this game to be much closer than many would anticipate. With a set total of 3, the UNDER is the call here.

Ive also got the New Saints today. i took the ML at +350. Ive also got
HALADAS @ -280. A Hungarian squad vs a Kazakhstan squad. Hopefully Haladas is a gimme cause i need it to close out an 8 teamer. GL

Phillth,

To be honest with you, I find these two very tempting:

The New Saints +350
Motherwell/LLanelli draw +450

But I think TNS +0.5 is almost "guaranteed". And I don't see more than 2 goals in the Motherwell game. So I'd just do with what I've posted.

Damn ... Decided to tail the TNS game and held off the Motherwell game. Of course you can guess what the outcome was.

1-1 -0.05.

What a day! TNS fooled me when they took the lead early in the game.
Somehow I felt Llanelli was capable of upsetting Motherwell. But I thought it could end in a draw rather than an outright upset. Now, we missed Llanelli +1000.

Motherwell screwed me pretty hard. Wish I had seen they were missing a ton of starters before I put them in a 7 team parlay. Won the rest of the games... I don't know why I still bet parlays

They were missing many starters and that's what informed my Under pick in that game. With more courage, I could have gone for the +1000 upset!
