Pretty much all of the matches hit the shortlist mark today bar Levante's match. A good selection of short priced favourites could produce some in-play angles this evening. An encouraging Monday coupon!

GERMAN BUNDESLIGA

19:30 - Dortmund v Augsburg - 1.48 Dortmund

• 1-1, 1-1, 1-2 Dortmund in the last 3 head to heads.

Dortmund (2nd)

• 5 wins and 3 draws in the last 8 matches.
• 3 consecutive wins.
• Failed to score in only 2 matches.
• Only 1 0-0 at home.
• Only 2 0-0's at halftime at home.
• Scored 2+ goals in 8 of their last 11 matches at home.

Augsburg (10th)

• Only 1 win in 5 matches.
• Conceded in their last 6 away matches.
• Only 1 0-0 away.
• 2 0-0's at halftime away.
• 3-3-1-2-2-2 conceded away v teams above them in the league.

Conclusions

• On form, Dortmund should be scoring 2 goals at least today in a win.
• Augsburg may score without winning.
• Dortmund seem to have found an able replacement for Aubameyang so a hope they continue with their goals record at home.
• I would lay the 0-0 in the halftime score market.

ITALIAN SERIA A

19:45 - Cagliari v Napoli - 1.35 Napoli

• 3-3-3-5-3-3 goals scored by Napoli in recent head to heads.

Cagliari

• Only 2 wins in 12 matches.
• Only 5 clean sheets.
• No 0-0 at home.
• 4 0-0's at halftime at home.
• All defeats v top 5.
• 7 defeats and a draw at home v top 16 teams.

Napoli (1st)

• 9 consecutive wins, 5 away.
• No defeat in 12 away.

Conclusions

• It does all look rather straightforward today (but then so did Bayern Munich and Ajax this weekend!).
• Any Cagliari lead should be taken on.

SPANISH LA LIGA

20:00 - Levante v Betis - 2.48 Levante

• 3 consecutive Betis wins to nil in head to heads.

Levante (17th)

• Only 3 wins all season.
• Conceded 2 goals at least in 6 of their last 7 matches.
• Only 1 0-0 at home.
• 4 0-0's at halftime at home (1/3rd of matches).

Betis (11th)

• 2 wins in 3 matches.
• Scored 3 goals in defeat to Real Madrid last match.
• 5-3-0-2-2-1-3 goals scored recently.
• No draw in 11 and in 7 away.
• 3 home wins and 2 away wins and a loss v teams 16th and lower.

Conclusions

• For me, if Betis continue scoring their goals as they have done recently, that would be enough. Yes, they have had 1-0 defeats away v 15th and 18th and that may signal the cautious market.
• I would have to lay Levante if Levante scored first. They may win 1-0 but have conceded 2 goals at least in 6 of their last 7 matches and play a Betis full of goals as I mention above.

PORTUGEUSE PRIMEIRA LIGA

19:00 - Braga v Tondela - 1.4 Braga

• 2-0 Tondela and 2-1 Braga last 2 head to heads.

Braga (4th)

• 7 wins in 9 matches.
• Failed to score in only 3 matches.
• No draw in 12 and in 12 at home.
• Scored in their last 10 at home.
• 2 0-0's at halftime at home.
• Only home losses v the big 2.
• Not conceded a 2nd goal at home outside of the top 2.

Tondela (12th)

• 4 losses in 5 matches.
• No draw in 7 away matches.
• No 0-0 away.
• 2 0-0's at halftime away.
• All defeats v top 5.

Conclusions

• Lay the 0-0 in the halftime score market.
• Tondela are unlikely to score 2 goals today so lay them if they lead.
• Braga should be eyeing the win today. Both teams are avoiding draws of late so you may want to take on the late draw.

21:00 - Sporting Lisbon v Moreirense - 1.19 Sporting

• 2-3 Sporting and 1-1 in the last 2 head to heads.

Sporting Lisbon (3rd)

• A critical match for Sporting who have a game in hand over the top 2 but are 8 points shy of Porto, reduced to 5 with a win today.
• Only 1 loss, a shock loss, v Estoril.
• 6 consecutive home wins.
• No defeat in 12 at home.
• 6 consecutive home clean sheets.
• Unbeaten at halftime at home.
• 5 0-0's at halftime at home.
• 100% home wins v 5th and lower, with 8 clean sheets in those 10 wins.
• Scored first in 11/12 at home.

Moreirense

• Only 1 win in 7 matches.
• Only 3 clean sheets.
• No draw in 10 away matches.
• Conceded in their last 8 away.
• Only 1 0-0 at halftime away.
• All away defeats v top 7.

Conclusions

• Moreirense drew 0-0 with Porto and lost to Benfica recently so really should struggle today.
• 100% wins at home v 5th and lower plays 100% defeats away v top 7 so it should be a straightforward win for Sporting Lisbon.
• The halftime stats are incongruent. 5 0-0's at halftime at home for Sporting, only 1 for Moreirense.
