European Football Match Betting Tips 26^th feb to 27^th Feb 2010  Archive

European football betting is a great way to give your soccer betting that Continental flavour each weekend.
There are so many football matches to bet on throughout the sports betting markets that surely there is one
great bet to take advantage of in each league? We aim to find that in this weekly tipping guide. Using the
football betting odds from bwin here are my picks for the best match of the German, Spanish, Italian and
French football league match schedule. There is even a suggested bet you may wish to place.

Bundesliga - VFB Stuttgart 11/20 Draw 11/4 Eintracht Frankfurt 97/20

Betting on the Bundesliga is tight this week with many marginal matches. Stuttgart are the heavy favourites
for this match but two places below Frankfurt in the league which makes me interested in betting on this
match. They drew 1-1 with Barcelona in the Champions league which was a good performance. Frankfurt is
doing well in the league and had a goalless draw against Hamburger SV recently. I think this match will be
drawn at 11/4 with Eintracht fans certainly getting a bit of value for the away win which is possible given
the teams league positions.

La Liga – Getafe 4/5 Draw 12/5 Real Zaragoza 33/10

My main reason for taking Getafe for this bet is the league positions of the respective teams. Getafe is eighth
in the league whilst Zaragoza is one place above the relegation places. Playing at home, Getafe are the
obvious favourites for this match. Zaragoza lost to Sporting Gijon in their last match playing at home and
will not relish playing away to a side expecting to avenge an away loss to two David Villa goals against Valencia. Certainly a sensible bet is on Getafe with odds of 4/5 offering a decent return for the winning
football bet.

Serie A – Napoli 8/5 Draw 11/5 Roma 8/5

Despite Roma playing away they are on a five game winning streak and up to second in the league beating
Palermo, Catania and Fiorentina in the process. Napoli has struggled for victories recently in the league
matches and has drawn three and lost one of their last four games. As Roma have excellent league form I
think they will prove very difficult to beat despite being away. At 8/5 I like their chances of victory in this
match which could see them move to within two points of league leaders Inter Milan if Jose Mourinho’s team
fail to pick up any points this weekend.

Ligue 1 – AS Nancy Lorraine 13/20 Draw 5/2 Grenoble Foot 38 21/5

Grenoble is at the foot of France’s Ligue 1 with a sorry ten points for the season. Nancy is hardly flying but
has thirty two points for the season and despite being in fourteenth place they are safe from relegation.
Playing away from home is hard for any team in relegation trouble, but Grenoble have drawn two and lost ten
of their twelve away matches this season, not registering even one victory so their chances of victory here
are very, very small. Even at 6.5/10 this is a decent bet for me as I would expect less than 1/2 for a home
victory here. Take advantage of the odds reflecting the league position rather than the chances of victory
and back Lorraine to win at 13/20.

My treble bet this week consists of backing Lorraine to win at 13/20, Roma to win at 8/5 (my favourite bet of
the week if you only want a single bet) and Getafe at 4/5. If you placed a £10 treble on these selections your
total return including your stake would be a nice £77.22.

Good luck with your football betting during this weekends European Football fixtures.
