Friday's Fixtures.
Single #5Nimes v Tours -
Draw no bet (Nimes)Odds: 1.40 Bet365 (at time of posting)
League: France Ligue 2
Single #5 (Draw no bet - Nimes) should have a good level of safety. Nimes are going through a good patch of form, which is something we saw last season around this time. They have gone their last 6 league games without defeat, winning 4 of them, and have managed to score 2 or more goals in 5 of those 6 games. Even though they didn't start the season well, they are still only 3 points off the promotion places, so there is everything to play for at this stage of the season. Their home form has been frustrating, picking up 7 draws as they have failed to convert into wins some of the games they have dominated. They are still difficult to beat however with only 3 losses from 12 home games. Their opponents tonight (Tours) are bottom of the French Ligue 2, have managed just 4 wins from 23 games this season, and have conceded more goals than any other side. On top of that, their head2head with Nimes is very one sided, with Nimes winning each of the last 6 encounters, including 3-1 away from home earlier this season. Nimes are a decent side, and with the draw covered and their good recent form, this selection should stand a good chance.
Single #6Napoli v Genoa -
Asian handicap (-1 Napoli)Odds: 1.43 888sport (at time of posting)
League: Italy Serie A
Single #6 (Asian handicap -1 Napoli) seems fairly good value odds when you consider the quality and form of both teams, and the home advantage of our selection. Napoli come into this match with a home record of 8 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss, scoring 28 goals and conceding 14, and more recently they have won 10 of their last 12 games in all competitions, so they are in very good form. Their last game was an incredible 7-1 away thrashing of Bologne, which included hat-tricks from Marek Hamsik and Dries Mertens, and with Arkadiusz Milik back from injury they are spoilt for choice regarding attacking options. Genoa on the other hand are on a terrible run of form, with 2 draws and 6 losses from their last 8 games in all competitions, which has even affected their usually strong home form, so their confidence must be really low right now. Away from home Genoa haven't managed a win for over 4 months, when they narrowly won 1-0 to 10 man Bologne. So away to a a very strong and in-form Napoli will be a massive task, therefore a comfortable home win should be on the cards tonight.
