Been out for a while with food poisoning last week and then having to catch up with a ton of work. Finally done with that and hopefully today's parlay will go as well as the last one.

Khimki vs Olympiakos

Khimki had a terrific 2017 and are looking to build on that success and have a good run in Europe this season. If their opening two games in the VTB league are anything to go by, the 2018 season could be a very good one for Khimki.

The last four times these two played each other, the home team won and by a huge margin every time.

Kostas Papanikolaou is listed as a doubt for the match and without him, i don't think the rest of the Olympiakos team can contain Alexey Shved. If Khimki do win this, i think it'll be a blowout and not a narrow one. If they do lose, i think it'll be a narrow loss. Which is why i'll get them on the Asian Handicap instead of the ML.

Pick: Khimki - 3 @1.80

Rungsted vs Herlev

Table topping Rungsted is taking on 4th placed Herlev tonight. Rungsted has a fantastic record against Herlev - winning 15 of their last 16 encounters. They met last week and Rungsted beat them 6-2.

Sofascore has Rungsted beating the odds at 84% while Herlev are at 9%. Based on form and H2H, i agree with that assessment. Rungsted did have an unexpected loss last week before they faced Herlev, but barring any freak accidents, it should be an easy win.

Pick: Rungsted ML @ 1.38

Overall: 2.484

comment: If betting on Danish hockey is degen-ing it a bit too much, i think picking Belgium-1 in the Nation's League is a good bet as well.
