In the new accumulator we will consider the upcoming matches of the English Premier League and the French Ligue 1. What to bet on today at the bookmaker?
Leeds-Manchester City
Soccer. English championship
Pep Guardiola, before the World Cup, was repeatedly panicked by the fact that at the end of December, due to personnel problems, he too should have entered the field. But the hysteria was in vain.
Manchester City almost beat Liverpool in the League Cup last week – 3:2.
One of the three goals was scored by Erling Haaland assisted by Kevin De Bruyne. By the way, the Belgian later made another effective pass.
In general, Guardiola, as usual, made a lot of noise, but everything turned out to be not so scary. But something still bothers him. Arsenal, after a classy victory over West Ham, extended their lead over City to eight points.
That is, the current champion should never lose points in the next game. But this, most likely, will not happen. As the meeting with Liverpool showed, Manchester City are well prepared for the winter part of the season.
To evaluate: Manchester City win + over 1.5 goals for 1.44.
Brest-Lyon
Soccer. French championship
Lyon played five friendlies simultaneously in December. And the results have not always been encouraging.
For example, last week Laurent Blanc’s team lost to the Italian Monza (1:2), and before that there was a draw with Sochaux.
Positively, we can note the victory over Liverpool (3:1). True, there is one nuance here. After the break, the Reds played almost as a reserve team.
Although Brest are close to the relegation zone, in this case it is better not to charge the favorite. Fact: Lyon have lost five of their previous six away games.
Therefore, the best option would be to bet on goals. Lyon will not only score but also concede.
To evaluate: Both teams score 1.65.
«Paris Saint-Germain» — «Strasbourg»
Soccer. French championship
PSG’s starting lineup is the main intrigue of the upcoming match. Lionel Messi will definitely not play: the captain of the Argentina national team continues to celebrate the victory at the World Cup. Kylian Mbappe is also likely to miss the next game.
But there are Neymar, Marco Verratti, Carlos Soler, Sergio Ramos, Marquinhos and Fabian Ruiz. In any case, “Strasbourg” awaits a difficult test.
By the way, the guests spent the autumn part of the season very badly. Strasbourg sit second bottom in the table, gaining just 11 points from 15 games.
This season, the main problem of “Strasbourg” was the game in defense. Julien Stéphane’s team have conceded 11 goals in their last five away games.
PSG are unlikely to miss the opportunity to score three more points and one step closer to the Scudetto.
To evaluate: PSG win + total over 1.5 per 1.35.
The overall coefficient is 3.21.
