Borussia Dortmund vs Club Brugge

Club Brugge currently are not in their best form. Vormer has been nowhere near his form of last year and Vanaken now also played a poor match last weekend against Zulte-Waregem. They can be sure to qualify for the Europa League before the start of the match if Atletico managed to win against Monaco. Coach Leko tends to put importance on these kinds of matches though despite the important league match against Standard next weekend. He already stated that he does not plan to 'park the bus' and wants his team to believe it is possible to take home a result. Dortmund is currently going strong on top of the table in the Bundesliga. They probably overestimate Club Brugge a bit based on the fact that they won rather undeserved in the first leg and they saw Club Brugge win 0-4 against Monaco. So the home team is the obvious favorite and I'm tempted to take a bit pre-game on -1.5 @ 1.82. I do expect a motivated start from the visitors though and will look for a potentially better deal live. I do also expect goals in this match. No Pre-Game Bets

Early Europa League Info

Anderlecht is already eliminated from the Europa League, suffers a lot of injuries and has an important match against Genk during the weekend. Because of these reasons, coach Vanhaezebroeck will likely field a very experimental team in the EL match against Trnava and a lot of youngsters along with players who have not played a lot and came back from injury might be fielded. The line has not really moved a lot and I took some on Trnava +1 @ 2.200 with the hope this team news moves the line being able to take some guaranteed profit before Kick-Off.

Late team news might change my views on these matches. I take all my pre-game and live bets at Sportmarket Pro which are a European Betting Broker that are aimed towards more serious Sports Bettors. They always offer the best odds on the market with high limits and do not restrict winning player. On some of the bets, I take a bit extra in BTC. All these bets are shared exactly as I take them right after having placed them on Nitrogensports which means the odds should be available to follow for those who want.
