EUROPE: Europa League - Group Stage

Celta vs Standard over 2.5   ft 1-1

Celta started the Europa League campaign with two draws and a victory, but with the teams defeat away to Holland against Ajax in the fourth round, they are now sharing the second position with Standard Liege and are nowhere close sure participants of the knockout stage. Morever, the team needs a victory here in order to be sure and that’s what they are aiming at for sure. As for the Primera, Celta comes from a bit unexpected defeat away to Eibar last weekend, conceding the only goal in 9th minute via Rico, while the visiting players remained a bit better during the match, however without being concrete enough in attack. Moreover, they made the things worse towards the end of the game, since two players of theirs were red carded. After this defeat, Celta remains in the middle of the table with seventeen points earned, which is four less than Europa League placed Atletico Madrid. Forward Fabian Orellana (5/2) should be doubtful for this one with an ankle injury.Standard Liege didn’t have much of chances to progress further after three rounds played, but their victory on the road against Panathinaikos in the previous game played changed a lot for them. The game itself was quite slow one, but the visitors looked way more concrete in the second halftime and deservedly celebrated victory thanks two goals from Belfodil and Cisse. As for the domestic league, team is nowhere close to their good old form, since the team currently stands only at nineth position with only twenty-two points earned out of fifteen matches. Moreover, they are having three defeats in last four rounds, coming from a 2:1 defeat away from home against KV Mechelen last weekend, even though they looked like a better opponent for the most of the game. Sa Orlando brought them into the lead in 26th minute, but lack of concentration towards the end of the first halftime, goal via Rits and at the beginning of the second half, via Verdier, cost them a lot this time. Standard should miss midfielder Mamadou Diarra (5/0) who probably will not be risked here due ankle injury. Whenever one team scores, the game should be wide open. Celta remains a favorite and should get the victory here, but knowing that the Spanish side plays against Panathinaikos in the last round, players of Standard will need to attack here from the off and search for a three pointer. All the value is with the goals in my eyes.

SCOTLAND: Championship

Raith Rovers vs Ayr   1   Ft 1-1

Raith Rovers, 4-1-1 in home matches, are currently sitting in 4th place, in today's match host Ayr knowing a victory would propel them into third in the Championship table, they come into the game unbeaten in their last five matches; about team news Def/captain Thomson 5/0 is injuried. Ayr will be looking to get back to winning ways after three League defeats in a row, are sit just three pts above the red zone and for this one, as well as in the last home defeat, will have a depleted midfield as Ross Docherty 12/0, Jamie Adams 8/2+1g and Brian Gilmour 10/1+2g are all ruled out through injury.

MACEDONIA: First League

Pelister Bitola vs Shkupi 1   Ft 2-0

Two totally different minded teams, Pelister always at home playing on 3 points, this season team is having high ambitions and wants to finish higher possible on table and catch European ticket. they are doing pretty well till now, they have now new coach Sensoi with who Pelister is having good results, i dont like their gameplay, coach dont like it too but now he said on press that they worked hard on that plan and should be positive things. Finally Pelister is having back some of their key members and for this game just couple of guys missing who are long term absences. On other side is Shkupi, another tipical home team, when they play at home they always play on points because of big support from their fans and big pressure on referees and away team players Shkupi took points at home but away from home all they do is waiting in defence on counters and always wasting time happy with 0-0 and draws... Now Shkupi have little weaker roster than last year and they have some troubles... for this game plus they have some absences, They have troubles with scoring goals and now added to that they will miss Kadriu(att 12/0), Demiri(att 6/0) and Traore(att 9/1) all of them starters, according to some infos which i got from some fans important midifler Janevski(11/0) is having some small injury and could miss too If we compare the rosters there is huge advantage on Pelister's side, also playing at home, big fan support, better atmosfhere, better form. And I think first game this season Shkupi 1-0 Pelister was fixed so now Shkupi should let Pelister but that are just city rumours. anyway Pelister better team and should win here, gl

POLAND: Ekstraklasa

Pogon Szczecin - Wisla Krakow   1   Ft 6-2

Wisla will be without - susp. def. Jovic 10app./0 goals (+3 assists) - susp. str. Malecki 15/4 (+2 assists) - inj. str. Ondrasek 12/2 (+ 2 assists) - inj. def. Pietrzak 9/1 Especially Malecki and Ondrasek are important offensive players who will be missed. Pogon has a strong squad. And is playing very good football lately. I think fair odds here should be -0.5 1.90-1.95 so we get -0.25 here for this.

ROMANIA: Liga 1

Pandurii - Poli Timisoara   2   FT 2-2

Pandurii Targu Jiu are in bad moment right now, the players are unpiad from several months, they make a funny strike against CSU Craiova. Several foreign players already left team : Jordy Buijs (DF 7/0 ) Christian Obodo (MF 9/1 ) Gordan Bunoza (DF 9/0 ) Another 2 players will leave next days : V.Alexandru (att 9/2) G.Tucudean (att 12/5) Problems dont stop here , because B.Ungurusan (DF 7/0) is suspended. ACS Politehnica Timisoara are not so bad team, they play very good football despite the last 2 bad results. They had a very hard period with many games , I expekt that team to win this game after a good break. All in all I think that ACS Politehnica Timisoara have first chance to win this game. NOW PRESIDENT GOT FIRED (NARCIS RADUCAN) ! THE SITUATION IS CRITICAL NOW ! Correct odds should be 1.70-180 for away win !

ASIA: World Cup - Qualification - Third stage

Syria vs Iran   2   FT 0-0

Syria never managed to reach World Cup final tournament and now have a chance to achieve that but after four rounds in group A of qualifications they are at 4th spot, with only four points, five points separates them from second position and direct placement on World Cup but that will be a really hard to reach. In 5th round of these qualifications they will host leaders of this group Iran and it will be extremely difficult to achieve some positive result and avoid defeat here. Hosts have negative record in meetings with Iran, in last three games suffered three defeats last one was five years ago with one goal margin and i just doubt that now will manage to achieve different outcome. This is their 14th head to head match and Syria celebrated only once 43 years ago, now i really don't believe that will manage to overcome strongest team in this group which are in pretty good shape at this moment. Hosts are coming to this match after victory over Singapore in friendly match five days ago while before that were defeated in previous round of qualifiers by Qatar about more than month ago with narrow result, in those four rounds they celebrated only once and victory came in third round over China away from home with narrow result, i just doubt that here can do something and earn points, in four rounds scored only one goal and showed pretty poor goal scoring skills, defense wasn't that bad but still i don't believe that will manage to avoid defeat in this game. Iran on the other hand are in really great form, they are coming to this match after victory with seven goals margin in friendly match against Papua New Guinea. In qualifications for World Cup did a pretty good job so far and after four rounds collected ten points and now are at leading position, they are only undefeated team in this group and so far kept a clean sheet in all four rounds, for sure are main candidates for first spot and direct placement on major tournament in Russia and i believe that will manage to achieve another victory here and extend their great unbeaten run of 17 matches. Last defeat guests suffered last year in March in friendly match against Sweden and at this moment are in really great form, they seems very confident and i have no doubts that can overcome not so great hosts here and secure their position. In last 11 matches they achieved 10 victories and got only one draw against China away from home, they will for sure achieve great results if continue in same manner, most important thing for them now is to keep current form. Visitors won their placement on previous World Cup in Brazil but there couldn't confront to a strong teams and after three rounds in group earned only one point and were eliminated, now I'm sure that can reach World Cup once again and in this match have a great chance to get one step closer to their goal. Visitors must win this game, they are having only one point more than second placed Uzbekistan but i have no doubts that will manage to collect all three points in this game. Hosts didn't showed some impressive performances so far and judging by their results i presume that will miss another World Cup, already are five points behind second placed team and i doubt that will do better results in next rounds while guests are for sure strongest team here and I'm pretty sure that will achieve another victory here to secure that leading spot.

ATP - SINGLES: World Tour Finals - London (World), hard (indoor)

S. Wawrinka vs K. Nishikori   1   Ft 0-2

Well Im gonna make prediction too from this final tournament of ATP, although I dont think there's that much good valuebets here. First of all I have a feeling from this that Stan is going to show good game here. I know his end of season at indoor courts have been very disapointting, at Basel and in Paris. BUT I know he knows how to play against the japanese, and he is more big tournament player to me. Stan has also won last two meetings in Grand Slam's which I can compare the stakes in here although this is best of 3 setters but Stan was clearly better end of this season at US Open and won 3-1 against Nishikori. He is also leading h2h 4-2. And in last three years when Wawrinka has played here, he has everytime been in semifinals and has played in really high level, last year beating Murray and Ferrer. So I think Stan has the edge in this one and the value is on his side cause I cant see him as an underdog!

ITALY: Serie B

Carpi vs Avellino   1   Ft 1-1

Italian Serie B match between Carpi and Avellino being played at the Stadio Alberto Braglia in Modena. The visitors have lost 7 out of their last 8 away games and scored just a single goal while they conceded 12 times. Carpi are currently in 8th place with 20 points from 13 games with a 14:11 goal difference. Avellino have the worst away goal difference in the league and second worst on the away table, the hosts have lost just once (Serie A against Lazio) in their last 10 home games and only failed to score twice. I would be surprised if the visitors can make any sort of impression and won’t go home empty handed, their away record is just shocking and that simply is enough to bet for Carpi to win this match even their current form is far from impressive. Odds of 1.60 are high enough to bet on a home win against a team that is horrible on the road.

ENGLAND: League One

Coventry vs Schunthorpe   over 2.5   FT 0-1

Coventry comes from a 4:2 victory away from home against Wycombe on Wednesday evening in Checkatrade Trophy game. Thanks to this victory, the team managed to reach the qualifications to the next stage from the first position, as they ended up this round with all three victories, three points above second placed Wycombe. It was quite a competitive and nice to watch game, with Wycombe being better for almost sixty minutes and taking the double lead thanks to goals from McGinn in 32nd and Scott in 53rd minute. However, visitors started playing much better from that minute on and needed only ten minutes in order to revert the scoreline completely, thanks to two goals from Haynes in 57th and 60th and Thomas three minutes later. Finally, Bigirimana sealed the victory in 86th minute. Coventry drew away to Morecambe in FA Cup game last weekend and are awaiting returning leg, while they come from fourth consecutive match without a defeat in League One, winning over Chesterfield in the most recent game 2:0 on 1st November. After sixteen rounds played, Coventry is just above the relegation zone with nineteen points earned, three more than relegating placed Swindon.Scunthorpe, on the other side, took a 2:0 victory away from home to Cambridge United last Tuesday evening in Checkatrade Trophy third round, with which they secured the first position in the group, recording all three victories, over Middlesbrough U23, Shrewsbury and already mentioned Cambridge United. Previous to that, they were excluded in FA Cup game away to Charlton suffering 3:1 defeat, but the team is anyway mostly focused on their League One performances where they still hold the first position and are doing great so far – having three points more than second placed Bolton and already ten more than teams ranked outside of the play-off places zone. Additionally, the team comes from two consecutive victories in League One, against Swindon and Chesterfield and are surely aiming for another one. I expect a very open game from both sides, meanwhile Scunthorpe remains slight favorite here, I won’t be going after their victory since Coventry remains a home team plus they are in a decent form on themselves as well. Both teams should be able to create enough threatening situations in order to reach three goals line more than easy, maybe even after the first halftime.

EUROPE: World Cup - Qualification

England - Scotland   over 2.5   Ft 3-0

England disappointed once again, that curse on major tournaments seems that just can't stop following them, after were struggling to reach knockout stage on previous Euro in France during last summer they were eliminated in 1/8 finals by biggest surprise on tournament Iceland. That was their only defeat in last ten games and they for sure have one of the strongest national teams in the World, placement on World Cup shouldn't be a problem to win, they are strongest team in this group and currently are at leading position where should be able to stay until the end of qualifications, in previous qualifiers for Euro achieved ten victories in ten rounds, scored 31 goal and conceded only three, i'm pretty sure that will manage to achieve similar results in this one. After three rounds in group F they collected seven points, in first two rounds celebrated over Malta and Slovakia while most recently in last round about a month ago earned one point after goalless draw on their travel to Slovenia, in that match showed some pretty poor performances and draw was fair outcome in the end, they must show more, three goals in three rounds against not so strong teams don't seems so convincing and they must show improving in order to achieve some great results on World Cup, however there is still time for that, now in 4th round will host Scotland and must go for another victory. In last two meetings with Scotland achieved two victories and i believe that this time will be the same, England have strong team and just must try to find the right form, new coach Sam Allardyce replaced Roy Hodgson and he will be under pressure for sure, good results are something what everybody are hungry for, tonight are facing with decent side and it won't be easy, they must show some better performances than in last game but i believe that will manage to collect all three points. As for absent players only defender Daniel Drinkwater will stay out of action for this match. Scotland missed European Championship which was held in France this year, they didn't impressed with results in qualifications there and ended up at 4th spot at the table, now after three rounds are again at 4th spot in group f and it will be really hard to achieve some good results here. After really convincing victory over Malta in first round they failed to celebrate over Lithuania in second round while in previous duel with Slovakia suffered convincing defeat. Now have really hard task to avoid defeat and earn some points in duel with strongest team in this group, they have negative record in meetings with England and must show some really remarkable performances to confront to them now and celebrate, they see their opportunity in not so convincing game of hosts on start of these qualifications and will give their best to surprise and achieve great victory, i'm not so sure that will mange to achieve that but for sure will attack and in my opinion they have enough quality to break opponents defense. It can't be said that Scotland is in some great shape, they celebrated only once in last five matches, suffered three defeats and got one draw, they must show significant improving in order to join race for spot on major tournament. In that previous round against Slovakia they were decent but lack of accuracy caused that convincing defeat, they now must show much more but here are coming highly motivated and i'm sure that this will be a great clash. Good news for the team is that they have no absent players. England must improve their form, they achieved decent results so far but much better performances and more convincing game is expected from them, here must win, that is only possible outcome for them, however that will open space for Scotland and will give them chance to score from counter attacks, this should be a great and open match with plenty of excitements and goals and over 2.5 goals to be scored somehow seems like a logical choice for this one and odds are decent.

• Dundee United have seen under 2.5 goals in 7 of their last 8 home matches against Dunfermline.

ENGLAND: Checkatrade Trophy

Exeter - Swindon   over 2.5   Ft 1-1

Middle of the table in previous season was maximum for Exeter, they must show some much better skills in this campaign that in last one to reach play offs for promotion, however after 15 rounds in English League Two are at 19th spot at the table and didn't impressed with performances, they are only one point above relegation zone and to secure their position must show some better performances than so far. In third round of Checkatrade Trophy are welcoming Swindon tonight and it won't be easy at all against side from League One, last time they met last year in English League Cup and managed to celebrate away from home, both goals in that match scored in first half and in the end managed to defend successfully and conceded only one what led them into next round but there were eliminated after convincing defeat against Premier league team Sunderland. Hosts are now coming to this match after elimination from FA Cup by Luton, before that in previous round of League Two celebrated over Morecambe with convincing result, they scored three goals there without conceding and once again all their goals were scored in first half. They can achieve better results for sure and here aren't without chances but simple are struggling to fin the right form, in this season they achieved only two victories in a row, variable form is their main problem and something must be changed in order to find consistency and reach higher spots at the table. 16 points out of 15 rounds doesn't sound as impressive achievement, they scored only 16 goals and must improve goal scoring skills while defense neither was great, all in all here will have a chance to achieve positive outcome in front of their crowd since guests aren't in some great shape neither, keeping a clean sheet seems like a quiet hard task but i'm pretty sure that will manage to break opponents defense. Swindon on the other side similar as hosts didn't showed some great performances so far in this season in League One, after 16 rounds collected 16 points and stands at 21st position at the table in relegation zone. Last season guests ended 13 points above relegation zone at 16th spot but battle for surviving in this one will be pretty hard unless they don't show some significant improving of their form. In first two rounds of Checkatrade trophy they managed to celebrate, in first round were better than Chelsea U23 while in second managed to overcome Oxford United after penalties and with five points earned are at leading spot in group 11. Most recently they got a draw against Eastleigh in FA Cup and will be seeking for further progress in rematch, before that in League one suffered two defeats and their form isn't good at all, in last six matches in all competitions they celebrated only once, now are facing with not so great hosts but i'm not so sure that will manage to celebrate. In 16 rounds in league scored 16 goals while conceded 23 and despite opponents aren't some strong effective side i doubt that will avoid conceding while scoring of some goals shouldn't be a problem. In last six year this is their 6th meeting with Exeter, in previous five have negative record with two defeats, two draws and only one victory five years ago, here for sure have a chance to end that win less streak but it won't be easy at all. These two sides are in bad shape, this match should be open one with plenty of goals, guests are slight favorites but it's very hard to predict winner of this game, it would have positive affect on morale of both sides to celebrate but my pick here is over 2.5 goals to be scored and i'm quiet sure that this is a safe bet.

ENGLAND: Premier League

Leicester vs WBA   1   Ft 1-2

After a bit sloppy start in the season, it seems that Leicester is now picking up in their form and the team should be able to get the position at the upper part of the table in the end. The team is doing more than well in Champions League with three victories and a draw and can’t be more happy with it, but they’ll need to impress some more in the Premier League. The team is undefeated in last four matches in official matches (two in Champions League, two in Premiership), coming from a 1:1 draw away from home against Tottenham last weekend. They were limited to a defensive role which was natural style for such a game, as the Spurs scored only goal from a penalty kick, while the visitors managed to respond in 48th via Musa, with the home team remaining better team till the end of the match, but defensive lineup of Leicester stood really well for the whole time. Vardy and Slimani should lead their attack in 4-4-2 formation as usual. Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel (8/0) is injured and out, same as central midfielder Nampalys Mendy (1/0) who didn’t have much of influence on Leicester’s performances so far. Attacker Islam Slimani is having some problems, but should be ready for the game.

West Brom, on the other side, comes from their second straight defeats, since the team couldn’t do much more in their 0:4 defeat at home against Manchester City. Citizens were way better for the whole game and completely deserved the victory, while the home team virtually had no chance to match them, doing very little in attack as well. Aguero brought the visiting team into the lead with two goals inside the first halftime, while Gungodan scored two goals more inside last ten minutes of the game. After this defeat, players of West Brom are standing just above the relegation zone, having ten points earned so far, which is only three points more than red zone placed Hull. Visitors should be playing in their usual 4-1-4-1 formation with Rondon as central striker. Offensive midfielder/forward James McClean (9/1) is suspended for this one, while injured remains other offensive midfielder, Nacer Chadli (7/4). Forward Saido Berahino (4/0) is probably not ready yet, similar to central defender Jonas Olsson (4/0). Leicester have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 matches against West Brom. Leicester is doing way better in front of their own crowd and the team will be aiming a three pointer here. I have no doubts that the home team will be much better here and are fully up to the task to win against mediocre West Brom that isn’t anywhere close to their full potential – Leicester seems to be going into right direction now.Leicester vs WBA   1

Key stats of the day

GERMANY: Regionalliga Sudwest

Kassel vs Saarbrucken   1X   Ft 0-0

Hessen Kassel hosts Saarbrucken in round 18 of the Regionalliga Sudwest. Saarbrucken is placed as huge favorites in this one but I really can see it. True that Saarbrucken is second on the table and are very strong at home but away from home they can be exploited. Hessen Kassel is sixth on the table with 25 points while Saarbrucken is second with 34. First two places lead into the play-off so Saarbrucken is there,now they need to keep it. Hessen Kassel has 4-2-2 at home and all seson long are very hard to break down. They put on a defensive front and many teams have cracked their teeth on this ground. Hessen is also in decent form lately losing just 1 of the last 6 matches. Last year the teams were very close in the upper part of the table so generally the difference between the teams isn`t big. Saarbrucken is valued a bit more. Saarbrucken has 6-3-0 at home but 4-1-3 away from home. From the last 4 away matches they lost two, won against poor hosts Kickers and drew 3:3 against average Homburg. The losses came against 17`th Teutonia and first Elversberg. Hessen won 3 of the last 4 against Sarbrucken while the visitors managed to score 1 goal. If Hessen can keep Schmidt from Saarbrucken (who is the scoring machine with 14) in check they got half the job done. The visitors have the second scorer Behrens(16-6) questionable while the defender Chrappan(14-2) is suspended. Hessen has Giese and Brandner available after suspension.

POLAND: Ekstraklasa

Termalika - Korona   1  Ft 1-3

Korona another crisis with players, where midfielder and 2nd top scorer Palanca (12/3) - suspended. Also striker and 1st top scorer L. Sekulski (10/5), midfielder J. Kiełb (10/1) and defender E. Diaw (8/11) injuries. As I said many times, Termalika in Polish Ekstraklasa is something like "black horse" -this is very unpredictable team. For example they won 3:0 against Legia Warszawa in last season. For this moment Nieciecza is 2nd best team at home in league with balance 4/3/0 and best defend line 9:4! Their main aspect is home field. - Good news for Termalika! Their newcommer David Guba from AS Trencin back to squad after longtherm injury. Three month out and he back few weeks ago to trainings. Last week he was played for reserves Termalika against Szczucin where he score hattrick! From other side we have Korona with balance away from home 1/1/5 and 23 lost goals! This matchon paper looks like Goliath vs David. Few month ago Termalika win 1:0 against Korona so why not this time? Korona come here without four regular players and their key defender E. Diaw is stil injury, in addition two of their top scorers out.. Termalika should win this clash. GL!

POLAND: Division 1

GKS Katowice - Ol. Grudziadz   1   Ft 1-0

In summer transfermarket GKS Katowice sign for example : B. KALINKOWSKI from Wigry Suwałki, top scorer A. PROKIĆ from Stal Mielec with 12 goals, D. ABRAMOWICZ from Puszcza Niepołomice, P. MANDRYSZ from Rybnik, Polish Extraklasa player L. ZEJDLER from Cracovia,M. LEBEDYŃSKI from Wisła Płock, S. NOWAK and T. FOSZMAŃCZYK both from Termalika, interested youngster E. SOBKÓW from Zagłębie Lubin, another one player of Ekstraklasa M. ABRAMOWICZ from Slask Wroclaw. Great shopping in my eyes and great players for this level. Could this help them? Yeah! GKS for this moment in TOP3 I Liga and they are great candidates for promotion. City help them with money for sure! Also I need to add GKS Katowice have very, trust me very great support from stands. Grzegorz Goncerz like always is thier top scorer, but for this moment only 5 goals on his account coz he miss three penalty's.. GKS is strong home team where their balance at home is 4/3/1. I need to add they have best defence in league, where they lost only four goals! Head 2 head is history and this is nothing for this time. GKS rebuild their team and they have ambitions for promotion. As u know guys, I always have some important information about missings but not this time. This pick based about my opinion and stats. Polish local bookies have too similar odds around 1.80, but I suggest you guys to take it. GL!

EUROPE: Europa League - Group Stage

Astra vs Plzen over 2.5   FT 1-1

Astra didn’t start their Europa League campaign well with two defeats, but the things improved a lot in the previous round when Romanian side managed to get a 1:2 victory on the road to Plzen and are now looking very competitive in a race to get the knockout phase in the end. Especially in case the team manages to fight out a victory tonight against the same opponent. It was a very interesting game back in Plzen, since both teams looked quite offensive, while the Romanians looked very dangerous in their fast counter attacks they were showing almost for the whole game. Plzen had more of the ball possession and looked like dominating one, but the guests scored against the flow of the game in 41st via Alibec, while they doubled up the result with an own goal from Horava in 64th minute. Hosts didn’t give up and managed to reduce the deficit near the end of the game, but without being able to completely revert the scoreline. Astra comes from a 2:2 draw against Dinamo Bucuresti in the domestic league, but are nowhere near the desired standard of form for now, being only at tenth position with fourteen points out of fourteen matches played. Home side has midfielder Damien Boudjemaa (3/0) remains injured.Even though Plzen is yet to record a victory in Europa League group stage, thanks to two draws (against Austria and Roma) they are also having chances of reaching the knockout phase, but they will need to get a positive outcome here. A victory here would change everything for them and the team will super boost their chances as well. As already said, the team was more dominant and looked like at the beginning they will be the ones who will get more out of it, but in the end stood defeated and still without a victory. Their road is easier in domestic league, with the side coming from a narrow 1:0 victory over Dukla Prague, as they reside at the first position already, with 9-2-1 record and three points more than first followers from Mlada Boleslav. I see both teams aiming a victory here and not being particularly satisfied with a point taken only. It’s something that should open up the game completely, similar to the one we already saw couple of weeks ago. My call is over goals with both teams being surely able to score more than once.

ATP - SINGLES: Paris (France), hard (indoor)

Jack Sock vs Dominic Thiem   2   Ft 2-0

Jack Sock (7/10 form) beat Kohlschreiber on previous round, but I saw a monotone game play from both players there, not interesting match for sure. Jack Sock totally rely on his bug serve to control the game, that's all; fortunate that Kohlschreiber wasn't in his best shape lately, so Sock can grab his won. Today he will meet Dominic Thiem (5/10 form) whose has more creative game play than Kohlschreiber, and sometime can do a good break point as returner; especially they recently met on Indian Well 2016 when Dominic Thiem won in 3 sets game, which make Thiem leading 2-1 on their H2H record. I fancy an interesting match here and expect Thiem be on his best form; so that I can expert some rally from them and I believe when it is happen Thiem should be more reliable to get point (break point) as returner.

EUROPE: Champions League - Group Stage

Benfica vs Dinamo Kiev   1   Ft 1-0

Benfica played really good football in the last matches. They are now playing with quality but even when they werent they were still winning because they have great players and great depth in the squad. Benfica score a lot of goals even without their topscorer Jonas since the start of the season. Benfica will play with the same squad that won in Kiev. They had a little bit of luck in that match but this Dinamo is a lot weaker than the Dinamo that last year won against Porto. Yarmolenko is injured and I believe he is a great missing for them. Tuesday its holiday in Portugal and Benfica will have a lot of people in the stands. Must win match for both teams but Benfica looks a lot better and at home they will be more dominant and I think they can repeat the score of Kiev..
