We've now had 3 consecutive double wins so far this week but the fixtures today are making it very difficult to pick something which stands a good chance of winning. I have however found a decent looking double for today, however i haven't been able to find these selections anywhere other than
888sport, so apologies to those of you who don't have an 888 account, but i would highly recommend you opening an account with them as they have one of the best football sports books available.
Double:
Trakai v Utenis - Total goals by home team (Over 1.5)
Italy U19 v Turkey U19 - Draw no bet 1st half (Italy U19)
At time of posting, odds were 1.83
(Fairly early kick-offs of 2pm and 4pm for these selections)
These matches can be found in the Lithuania League, and the European Championship U19.
Our first selection (Trakai - over 1.5 goals) are one of the stronger side in Lithuanian football, they finished runners up last season, and this season they sit in second place currently also. They are generally very strong at home, with just 1 loss at home for the whole of last season, and that was against Champions Zalgiris. Last season they scored 52 goals in 18 home games and conceded only 10. So far this season, they have played only 4 games, but already have 3 wins, with the 1 loss coming against Zalgiris again. Their opponents today (Utenis) have lost all of their first 4 games this season, scoring just 2 goals and conceding 6. Last season they finished mid table, but still a massive 42 points behind Trakai. Trakai should have more than enough quality to get a couple of goals at home today.
Our second selection (Italy U19) are currently topping their group, level on points with today's opponents Turkey U19. Both are good sides, and their is an element of danger to this selection if Turkey U19 get an early goal. However, i believe Italy U19 have the greater quality and should come out on top in this match but the odds on "Draw no bet" over the full match time were just not good enough, so had to go for the half time pick. Italy U19 are definitely the harder side to beat, losing just 1 of their last 14 games, which included wins against teams like Spain U19. Turkey U19 on the other hand have recorded wins against some of the weaker teams, but struggled against the better quality teams, suffering heavy defeats against Spain U19 and Portugal U19 in the last year. Italy U19 should have the quality to be able to avoid being a goal down at half time, and hopefully they will go into half time leading.
