2021/22 LaLiga/EPL/SerieA/Bundesliga/Ligue1 Picks

235. Manchester United/Burnley UNDER 2.5 @ 2.25/+125 (ENG) 1u Marathon
This is a form play for me as the past 4 games all under their new manager have ended under. In that stretch even though they are undefeated they have yet to score more than 1 goal in a game. Burnley on the other hand have had their last 3 games go under and they have not scored a goal since Nov 20. Head to head wise 3 of the past 4 ended under 2.5 goals and in 3 of those games Burnley have been shut out. Missing Pogba to injury and Bruno Fernandes also does not help for the home side.

234. Chelsea win to Nil @ 2.20/+120 (ENG) 1u Bet365
The past 4 head to head games between these sides at Chelsea ended 2-0,2-0-2-0 & 0-0. Brighton got shutout in all 4 games. This season Brighton's matches average only 1.94 goals per game. Chelsea have the leagues 2nd best GA with only 13 allowed. Finally this prop is back at plus money which is a play in my books.

that was a dirty beat mate u were almost there

236. Valencia ML @ 1.82/-120 (SPA) 1u Pinnacle
I like the home side for 2 reasons. First; form wise Valencia have won 5 games in a row, where as the visitors Espanyol come into the match with a 5-4-1 record. Second the head to head record, where last year Valencia did the double over Espanyol with 2-1 & 1-0 scorelines. The last time Espanyol won a game in Valencia was in 2007. Since then they have 0 wins 2 draws & 11 losses in Valencia.

241. Sampdoria/Cagliari OVER 2.5 @ 1.85/-117 (ITA) 1u Pinnacle

I like my numbers backing this total in the early game. Form wise both sides have had 3 of their past 5 games go over. Head to head 5 of the past 6 games have gone over the total including the last 2 from last season, ending with 3-1 & 2-2 scorelines. Both sides are also very poor at the back with Cagliari allowing 40 GA this season which is the leagues second worse. Sampdoria are not to far behind with 35GA that being the leagues 5th worse.

**DiamondJack** · 01-05-22, 05:06 PM

242. Juventus/Napoli UNDER 2.5 @ 1.92/-108 (ITA) 1u Marathon
I was hoping this line would move towards even money but it still looks like a solid play. I have been on Juve unders for a while now and its been the only thing making any money for me in Italy. Juventus come into this match with 7 straight unders, while Napoli have had their past 3 games go under 2.5 goals. 3 of the past 5 head to head meetings have also gone under the total. Both these sides do not concede many goals. Napoli only 14 GA which is the leagues best and Juventus 17GA which is second best. In League play, Juventus matches average 2.32 goals per game & Napoli's 2.52 which is 2nd & 3rd lowest in the league.

**DiamondJack** · 01-07-22, 09:36 AM

243. Bayern Munich Total Cards UNDER 3 @ 1.88/-114 (GER) 1u Bet365

Once again any time you have a game played in front of no fans the card number leans to the Under. Also this match is not a derby and the last 2 times these sides met there were 2 cards issued. Another trend for under cards is a clear favourite any team laying -400 or better.

**DiamondJack** · 01-07-22, 01:31 PM

244. Levante/Mallorca OVER 2.5 @ 2.17/+117 (SPA) 1U Marathon
The home side Levante have the leagues worse defense with 41 goals against. Mallorca are not to far behind having the 4th worse GA in the league conceding 28GA so far this season. Form wise Lavante have had their past 4 games go over the total and Mallorca have had 3 of their past 4 also go over. Head to head 3 of the past 5 meetings also go over. Getting this total at plus money is value.

**DiamondJack** · 01-07-22, 01:45 PM

245. Freiburg/Arminia Bielefeld UNDER 2.5 @ 1.92/-108 (GER) 1u Marathon
Freiburg have the best defense in the league allowing only 16 goals against this season. Bielefeld are 5th best allowing only 22 GA, however their problem is scoring goals as they have only managed to score 14 GF which is bottom of the Bundesliga. Form wise Bielefeld have had their past 5 games go under. Head to head wise the last 3 meetings have also gone under the total.

**DiamondJack** · 01-07-22, 02:11 PM

246. Lens/Rennes to DRAW @ 3.58/+258 (FRA) 1u Marathon
Both these teams are coming off of mid week cup matches that went the distance to penalties. Only 4 points separate them in the table. The past 2 head to head meetings ended level. I expect a share of the spoils especially with rain forecast for a cold night in Lens.

**DiamondJack** · 01-07-22, 02:40 PM

247. Valencia +1.5 @ 1.92/-108 (SPA) 1u Marathon
Real Madrid at home is always overpriced. I think Valencia give them a game. The last meeting Real Madrid won 2-1. Th past 7 head to head Masdrid wins 4 loses 2 and draws one. The home side will be without Bale, Carvajal & Jovic. I had this game pegged at around -150 as Madrid are rightfully favoured but -286. I'm getting spotted a goal and a half I'll take it.

**DiamondJack** · 01-11-22, 09:16 AM

254. Brentford +0.5 @ 1.80/-125 (ENG) 1u Marathon
Both teams are in decent form as Brentford is coming in to this match off of back to back victories ans Southampton is unbeaten in the past 4. With only 2 points separating these sides in the table I expect a close game. The reason I'm backing Brentford is their great away record. Brentford only lost 3 away games this season and the Saints are awful at home where they won only 2 games this season. Thinking a Draw here, but I would not be surprised at an away victory.

**DiamondJack** · 01-11-22, 09:24 AM

255. Cagliari/Bologna to DRAW @ 3.34/+234 (ITA) 1u Marathon
The home side Cagliari have drawn 4 of their past 9 games and I'm hoping that trend continues today when Bologna come to town. Bologna have not played since before Christmas and I expect them to be rusty in this fixture. I think both sides would be happy with a point.

**DiamondJack** · 01-14-22, 12:57 PM

256. Borussia Dortmund Total Cards Under 3.5 @ 1.91/-110 (GER) 1u
Once again I'm playing my lower card total on a big favourite when there are no spectators in the stands. If you go back to last season when most of the leagues had no fans 2 things happened; home advantage disappeared and there were fewer cards issued. Keep that in mind this weekend in the Bundesliga.

265. Osasuna +0.75 @ 1.97/-103 (SPA) 1u Pinnacle

**DiamondJack** · 01-19-22, 11:02 AM

266. Sevilla PK @ 1.87-115 (SPA) 1u Marathon
Sevilla are second in the table and are away at 10th place Valencia who they have defeated the last 5 times they played. Valencia only managed to score one goal against Valencia in those past 5 head to head. Sevilla have only allowed 5 goals against in their past 1o away meetings. Form wise Valencia have lost their last 2 league games where as Sevilla are undefeated in their past 6. Going with a narrow away win here for a side still very much alive in the title race.

**DiamondJack** · 01-20-22, 06:05 PM

267. Watford/Norwich OVER 2.5 @ 1.94/-106 (ENG) 1u Bet365
An early relegation battle with both sides seeking the full 3 points so I expect both teams to open it up and go for the win. The last meeting ended 3-1 in favour of Watford. Numbers wise this season Norwich's matches average 2.62 goals per game & Watford's the leagues 4th highest at 3.16 gpg. Form wise Norwich come into the match having 3 of the past 5 go over & Watford have had 7 of their past 9 go over the total. What iIlike the most is the poor Norwich defense that had allowed a league high 45 goals against.

**DiamondJack** · 01-20-22, 06:11 PM

268. Lyon/St Etienne UNDER 3 @ 2.01/+101 (FRA) 1u
Decent value here at plus money for the total set at 3 goals. Lyon have had their past 5 games go under 2.5 goals and their matches average 2.75 goals per game in league play this season. The visitors St Etienne have had 3 of their past 5 go under 2.5. The last meeting between these two sides back in October ended level at 1-1. I see a narrow low scoring win for the home side.

280. Lyon/Marseille UNDER 2.5 @ 1.96/-104 (1u) Unibet
Lyon come into this match on a streak of 6 consecutive unders. Marseille have had their past 4 games also go under the total. The game will be played in an empty stadium ans both sides are missing key players and you almost feel like both would gladly take a point. Marseille just played on Saturday and will play on Friday. The past 3 head to head meetings all went under 2.5.

**DiamondJack** · 02-03-22, 02:39 PM

281. Hertha Berlin/Bochum OVER 2.5 @ 2.07/+107 (GER) 1u Pinnacle
The average numbers of goals in the Bundesliga this season is at 3.13 goals per game. These two sides combined average 2.80 goals per game. Form wise the last 2 games for Hertha have gone over 4.5 & the last 2 for Bochum have gone over 3.5. The last head to head meeting ended with a 3-1 scoreline in favour of Hertha. Getting plus money here is value.
