European Football Thursday Group Stage Previews


These are previews from matches involving Belgian Teams with all the latest on team news, player form, and injuries along with my personal betting angles, ...

I'm clearly in a bad streak at the moment with things just not going my way as Brugge was better on Tuesday yet they once again managed to screw it up while I hesitated just too long as I was able to fully hedge out after they got a red card. Yesterday I also ended taking some on Bayern 1H +0 @ 1.8+ right after the 1-0 which was unbelievable that that ended up a loser. So I'm extra cautious right now and I'm waiting for things to turn around. 4 Matches today in Europe from Belgian Teams...


Vikingur Reykjavik vs Cercle Brugge

This match has an early kickoff and the main news is that Cercle Brugge (57M) Left some A-Squad players at home because they fear the relegation in the league after a poor start. Their style of play simply doesn't allow the busy schedule and one of the reasons why they lost many points already is the schedule. So the board made the call to see the conference league as a side competition while the coach doesn't really like this. They will be without 11 players as Ravych, diakaté, Minda, Van Der Bruggen were left at home while Utkus and Nazinho will be rested for Sunday. nunez andKakou aren't allowed to play in Europe while Warleson, Magnéé and Brunner are injured. Mainly in the defense which already was an issue they look weakened. The good thing however is that they Play Vikingur (3.5M) who on paper are not on their level while the first match in the conference league against st Gallen (26M) they crushed it in a very open match which ended in a 6-2 score. Vikingur does not play in their home station while it's only 5 km away and they have a good record in Europe in Iceland with only 1 defeat in their last 10 which needs to be put in context as it all were weaker opponents. Against Omonia (19M) away in the first round they lost 4-0 with 3 goals after minute 80 and most of their matches look high-scoring. Given how Cercle Played at home in their 1st week match combined with their defense which looks questionable while their quality should be in the offense I would say there is a good chance for the match to see goals. I'm going into this match with a lean on the favorite and the over and see no need to get in now as I will just wait to see how it goes first. No Pre-Game Bets


AA Gent vs Molde FK

AA Gent (68M) is a team that this season took better results than what they actually deserved based on their play. At the same time based on the +1 line they got away against Union over the weekend which ended 0-0, it's not that they are overrated on the betting market. They generally play with the same team and have no injuries or missing while they tend to perform better at home. They got trashed by a Chelsea B-squad in week 1 of the group stage even though the score was only 4-2 and now play at home against Molde FK (32M) who on paper should be a top 6 team in Belgium. They are 3rd in the Norway league and come off a 0-1 loss against one of the bottom teams while in the 1st week of the group stage they won with a 3-0 score against (4M). Molde also lost last 5 European matches they played in Belgium. So while I want to oppose AA Gent, the fact that they are in a 'lucky results' streak combined with the fact that their handicap this weekend was high makes me skip. No Pre-Game Bets


FC Midtjylland vs Union SG

Union SG (82M) plays matches with a similar intensity and mindset compared to last seasons but their overall quality isn't as good which results in a situation where they simply don't create enough. This just makes them hard to trust as it also showed in the first match against Bodo/Glimt which ended in a 0-0 while they were the better team. Midtjylland (63M) is in 2nd place in the Denmark league coming off 2 losses while they won with 0-2 away against Maccabi Tel Aviv in Europe and played 1-1 at home against Hoffenheim. Union in the league has yet to win an away match and are near the bottom in the 1H away standings. The only bet that kind of temps te is Midtjylland 1H +0 but I want 1.8+ odds to really be willing to take the gamble. It's another match where I will just wait and see what happens. No Pre-Game Bets


Anderlecht vs Ludogorets

Anderlecht (109M) so far took 6 on 6 in Europe after wins against Ferencvaros (2-1) and Sociedad (1-2). in the league they have been rather average at times pushing away their opponent but unable to keep that up for longer than 20 minutes. Ludogoretz (52M) so far in Europe lost 0-2 against Slavia Pregue (100M) and they took a 0-0 draw against Plzen (41M). In their league they are now after 11 weeks with 10 wins and just 1 draw. One of the weak points of Anderlecht has been the defense after Vertonghen got injured as Zanka is showing not good enough. This forces them now to play with finding a solution by playing someone out of position. Anderlecht is also 1W-4L at home this season against the asian handicap which makes me lean on Ludogorets as too big of an underdog. I split between 3 bets which I each took with 0.1 unit. Ludogorets 1H +0.25 @ 1.952 (Anderlecht only won 1 first half at home out of 6 this season), Ludogorets +0.75 @ 1.820, & Ludogorets Team Total Over 1 @ 2.120

IMPORTANT !

Past results don't guarantee Future Results. There are very few people who are equipped financially and psychologically to handle the ups and downs of gambling on a daily basis. If you're not a professional, every instinct you have will attempt and probably will sabotage your success. Human nature runs completely contrary to being successful at gambling. These bets are posted as a way to help myself in order to stay disciplined, always hold yourself accountable if you end up following. Proper Bankroll Management can highly decrease the risk of heavy losses!
