Den Haag vs Graafschap

There is an interesting match in the Eredivisie between two of the teams occupying the bottom of the table. Den Haag has been hoping for a better start, but the reality is that they are playing well bellow the last year's level. The main problem is that are not able to keep the clean sheets and that is really troublesome. Graafschap is already out of the running even thou it's only 8 rounds in the championship. This team will certainly be relegated this year. What I find interesting is the goal line set by the bookmakers. Odds for over 2.5 are way too high and this is a pure value bet for me. Medium stake for this one. Good Luck.

Due to a mistake by the bookmakers who gave the wrong odds, this bet was voided.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs Borussia Moenchengladbach

Eintracht is in trouble and they've lost 2 out of last 3 and won only one out of 5 games. That seriously damaged them in the standings and all the good work they've put in the season-opening is washed away. Afer scoring 6 against Koln, they have been a bit inefficient which is a problem if the team is offensive minded one. Monchengladbach is surging with 9 points from 3 games and 9 goals scored. They are heading towards the zone leading to Euro Cups and I expect them to continue with good games. This will be an extremely entertaining game and I expect both sides to score at least once. There is a lot of value in over 2.5 goals bet so i will go with medium stake. Good Luck.

Bursaspor vs Antalyaspor

Home team is in the rebuild process and they are doing a very good job. When you look at the standings you can already notice that this team is performing a bit better than expected considering the situation they are in. They start off this season a bit slower but picked it up with 3 wins out of las 4 games. And the coach had time to train the young player during the international break and I thin they will come out of the gate storming. The away team showed some inconsistency in the last couple of games and they are in trouble here. There is a thin value here I and I will go with a smaller stake for this one. Good Luck.

New Jersey Devils vs San Jose Sharks

Home team is not in the zone and they lost 3 out of last 4 and even that one they had to go to overtime to get it. San Jose Sharks, on the other hand, are playing phenomenally and they are in the super hot zone with 12/1 goal difference in the last 3 games and won 7 of last 9 games. The odds here a bit confusing since New Jersey isn't exactly in a competitive form and it is possible we see a shift as the game draws near. I would go with a smaller stake for this game, but still a value bet. Good Luck.

Lokomotiv Kuban vs Panathinaikos

An interesting game takes place in Russia, where Lokomotiv Kuban Krasnodar meets Panathinaikos Athens. Panathinaikos guard Nick Calathes, who was named Eurocup MVP with Lokomotiv as he led the club to the 2013 Eurocup title, is all too familiar with the arena. The hosts head coach, Georgios Bartzokas, knows Panathinaikos well from his days on rival Olympiacos Piraeus’s bench. But Panathinaikos has a new coach, Djordjevic who significantly strengthened the team and is expected to lead them to a place in the Euroleague this year. The reason why I am pulling towards the away side is that they are going to be extremely motivated under a new coach and with experienced players they will have the edge in this game, regardless of the home court advantage of Lokomotiv. Smaller stake for this one. Good Luck.

Golden State Warriors vs Houston Rockets

Preseason is heating up and lots of teams already played a couple of games and got a sense of where the players are fitness wise. Houston Rockets did a solid job during the summer, but the key point for them is staying healthy. Howard has been sidelined a lot last year and played a career-low 41 games. With the Beverly injury in the post-season, Harden was the one that picked up all the weight of the team. He was leading the League in minutes played. Well both of them are out for tonight's game. They won't even travel do San Francisco for this game and I see that as a huge handicap. Golden State is looking healthy and even if they play their second unit a lot tonight, they should win comfortably tonight. Lower stake for this one. Good Luck.

Zvezda 2005 Perm vs Stjarnan

Champions League Women is in the 1/16-finals stage and today an interesting rematch is being played in Russia. Zvezda is hosting Stjarnan and I think the odds are shifted here for no apparent reason. Zvezda won the frist game 1:3 away from home and it was a game where they dominated hard. Now the AH line is unexpectedly high for me in this rematch. I believe that there was an apparent oversight by the bookmakers for this game and for me this is a pure value bet. Another interesting thing to mention is that all previous meetings between these teams, Zvezda won in a commanding fashion. Medium stake for this one. Good Luck.

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Toronto Raptors

There is something interesting in the Minnesota squad. They roster astounding 17 players, 14 of which played last game against the Raptors. They lost that game 112-105, but it was incredible to watch the rotations of the Timberwolves bench. None of the players played mora than 20 minutes in that game. Toronto kept te core of the squad around and added DeMare Carroll, who had a breakout season with the Hawks last year. The reason I am backing Minnesota in this is the fact they were better in almost every stat category. More assists, better fg%, less TO, fewer fouls. The only area they were behind was defensive rebounding, which they have the athleticism to dominate, just need to put a bit more effort. And the sole reason Raptors won that game was Lowry. 40 points in 28 minutes is really spectacular, but I doubt he will replicate it in this game. I would estimate that these teams are about even money in this game, so when I found the 2.90 odds offered, I couldn't resist. If you want to play it safe, cover with AH +5.5 on Timberwolves but I will go with h2h win with a medium stake for this one. Good Luck.
