The leagues in the Europa League will be decided on Thursday.
RB Leipzig faces Real Sociedad. AOP
The most interesting game of the day
There will be a number of top-notch encounters in the Europa League on Thursday in the second half of the match. The biggest robbery in the opening round was handled by Real Sociedad, claiming a 2-2 draw from RB Leipzig after practically playing under the roller all the time. Leipzig held the ball with an 64 percent possession, winning 20-3 goals and 2-1 goals.
After that, the teams performed in their own series over the weekend, following the previous trend: RB Leipzig actually crushed Hertha in Berlin away 6-1 and Real Sociedad lost as much as 0-4 in the Basque derby to Athletic Bilbao. The results also describe the teams’ playful mood quite well.
The line-ups are also strongly in favor of RB Leipzig today, with the team missing the last one Willi Orbanin. After Orban’s return, Leipzig will reach the match with practically the best possible line-up. The home team, Real Sociedad, are missing the defense Diego Ricomidfield Mikel Merino and Adnan Januzaj as well as the attack Ander Barrenetxea. Also of paramount importance Alexander Isakin gameplay is a mystery.
After all this, I think that RB Leipzig should now be considered a favorite against Real Sociedad. In terms of betting, the most tasty search for the Real Sociedad – RB Leipzig match is RB Leipzig’s odds of 1.83. Veikkaus’ offer is very competitive in this category. The match starts at 19.45.
The best bet of the day
Thursday’s best long haul search can be found in the snooker European Masters tournament. Jordan Brownin and Graeme Dottin in the encounter, I disagree with Veikkaus about the game’s favorite. Veikkaus has made Graeme Dott a favorite (like any other market). 44-year-old Dott’s best times in snooker date back to the early 2000s, when he won the 2006 World Snooker Championship and the 2007 China Open, among others.
Since then, Dott has no longer made significant gains. Of course, it is worth noting that Dotti will be in the finals of the World Grand Prix in 2020, for example. Still, the very best blade feels like missing a Scot.
On the contrary, Jordan Brown, 10 years younger than Dott, is on a strong rise in his career. Brown’s current ranking of 24 is the highest in his career. In the current European Masters, Brown has played hugely well after winning as an underdog Mark Selbyn (5–3) and last Xiao Guodongin as many as 5-0.
Dottkin has won two of his opening games in the tournament, but a slick 5-4 win Mark Davis and Yuelong Zhou are not too convincing. Personally, I now consider Brown a favorite against Dott and the Northern Irishman is eligible for the coupon with his very competitive 2.08 odds. The game by Jordan Brown and Graeme Dott is scheduled to start at 4.30pm.
Games of the day: Jordan Brown – Graeme Dott 1 (odds 2.08).
Total balance of the year’s games: 19/27/127%
