Botev Plovdiv vs Pirin Blagoevgrad

Botev continues to struggle, as the hosts have won only three points from the last five rounds (1-0-4 3/7).


However, Botev is a team with enough potential at least for a place in the middle of the standings in this league and what is also important to be noted: the hosts had really difficult schedule in the previous five rounds (0-2 vs. Litex, 1-2 vs. Ludogorets, 0-1 vs. Levski, 1-0 vs. Montana and 1-2 vs. Lokomotiv Plovdiv), while now Botev will face the team with the lowest potential in the league.


Pirin is the only team in the league still without a single win since the beginning of the new season, as the guests lost eight times in the previous twelve rounds, while the other four encounters ended with draws (0-4-8 2/14).


In the matter of fact, the guests showed decent play in defense in most of their games so far this season, but the attack is obviously Achilles’ heel of this team: only two goals in the previous twelve rounds and not a single goal in the last three games against Cherno More (0-1/away), Slavia (0-0/away) and Beroe (0-1/home).


In addition to that, the guests will travel to Plovdiv without three important players in Toni Tasev (d / 10-0), Yulian Popev (d / 10-0) and Dimitar Blagov (m / 6+0), while Aleksandar Kolev (f / 11+2) is the only player, who will miss this match for the home team.


Botev excels Pirin in terms of quality of the players and experience, while home court advantage is also an important factor in such games.

England vs Estonia

VS

 England welcome Estonia to Wembley on Friday night and really should get a convincing win. Roy Hodgson’s men are comfortably the best team in the group and are more than capable of winning all their remaining games considering the poor opposition. Qualifying for tournaments is not an issue as the pressure is off – if England slip up once then the probability is they will win the next game and still qualify. The problem comes when the pressure is on during the actual tournament and a bad result makes it difficult to progress.


Reporting for England duty will be a relief for the players, and allow them to escape from the poor performances of their clubs in the Premier League. This is an unusual situation for the players, as usually reporting for international duty seems to be a hinderance rather than something to look forward. I expect England to enjoy this match and put on a performance. Rooney should start in a central striker position and I expect a strong starting line up and a few goals. England to cover a two goal handicap is the bet that takes my eye, and I will be backing this at odds of 2.20.


England -2 @ 2.20
