I kept a rather low profile betting wise yesterday in the match between Club Brugge and Galatasaray and managed to make a bit of profit after lowering the risk on my pre-game position early on in the match. It ended in a fair 0-0 Draw. Two matches today from Belgian Teams in the Europa League and I already took a couple of bets early on.


Standard vs Guimaraes

Standard is a team with a lot of potential this season but they still don't seem to be at full force just yet. Record Transfer Vanheusden is back from injury but is still on the bench along with some others. Key Player Lestienne is in great form and they managed to somewhat break their bad away reputation last week with a 1-4 victory which puts them on top of the table in the Belgian League. Somehow I don't fully trust them just yet. The situation is somewhat similar to Club Brugge yesterday who played against their (on paper) direct opponent at home in the first match. Guimaraes is currently 10th in the standings in Portugal having taken 6 points in 5 matches (1W-1L-3D) and they come off a 4-1 home victory. They finished 5th last season and went trough 3 qualifying rounds to reach the Europa League. According to Transfermarkt their player base is worth 53 Million which is close to the 78 Million Standard is supposed to be worth. They are said to be a well-organized team that doesn't easily concede goals. It is really hard to put a number on this match and the first goal will probably be key along with the form of the day from Standard. If they are up for it I might be willing to back them live.

AA Gent vs Saint Etienne

AA Gent has a great squad this season along with an excellent bench and have been the best playing team in the league even though not always as reliable. St-Etienne took a poor start in the French league and are only 15th with 5 points. Their players are worth 119 Million on Transfermarkt compared to the 90 Million for AA Gent so it should be a first real test for the home team. I do highly value form and confidence when it comes down to the bets that I end of taking. in this regard, AA Gent is in a good spot and also free-scoring while there are also signs that they might have some difficulties defensively against good sides. The 3 bets I took early and posted Tuesday are AA Gent Team Total Over 1.5 @ 2.15 (Now 1.980) | AA Gent vs St-Etienne Over 2.5 @ 1.910 (Now 1.826) and AA Gent -0.25 @ 1.910 (Now 1.793) and I'm quite pleased with all of them especially since the lines have moved a bit (always a good sign). I also took some extra in BTC on Sportsbet on the first option and could not resist taking a tiny bet on Over 3.5 @ 3.2+. Overall i'm 1.5 units invested in this match and have a little bit of room to take extra live and might take a lot more in case one of the positions is in the green in-play. Should be an interesting match.
