The visitors Marseille have managed to keep only 2 clean sheets in league away games this season, their last one coming against St Ettiene back in November 2016. Since that game they have played 14 league games and 13 of them have been over 1.5 goals. Lille are similar in the respect they don’t keep many clean sheets either, only 2 shut outs in their previous 13 games and 5 of their last 6 games have been over 1.5 goals. The previous meeting finished 2-0, I’d take again today.

Two sides near the foot of League One meet in this one but it’s the away side Shrewsbury who arrive in better form after collecting 5 points from their previous 3 games. Port Vale are in big trouble, they’ve won only 1 of their last 11 league games and that came against Swindon in a 3-2 victory. Port Vale haven’t managed a clean sheet since the first week in January and today they face a Shrewsbury side who have failed to score only once in their last 12 league games. I think over 1.5 goals is a decent bet considering all of Port Vale’s last 10 games and 7 of Shrewsbury’s last 9 games have been over 1.5 goals.

We head over to Ireland now, where no doubt there will be plenty of guiness sunk throughout the day, even more so if they manage to win the Gold Cup at Cheltenham this afternoon. There isn’t a lot of form to go out as both of these side are only 3 games into their season but both of these sides are usually good for goals I thought over 1.5 goals would be significantly shorter than it actually is. All of Wexford’s 3 league  games have been over 1.5 goals and 2 of UCD’s 3 league games have been over 1.5 goals.

Home advantage counts a lot with Metz, it’s a good job really because they are useless away from home. Thankfully they play Bastia today at the Stade Saint-Symphorien and I think they are slightly over priced by bookmakers. Metz are just under EVS to win against a side who have only won once away from home all season and that was against bottom of the league. Metz are undefeated against teams ranked 7th or below in the table when playing at home. Bastia are without four players due to suspension and Metz can take this at a nice price.

Another side who I think are over priced slightly in France this evening, Chateauroux. They lost last weekend against Sedan but before that they had won 5 on the bounce. They are are 10 points ahead of todays opponents Paris in the league and have already beaten them 1-0 in the reverse fixture. Paris are mid table and have won only 1 of their last 4 games. They haven’t managed a single win against any side above them in the league when playing away from home and at just under EVS I think the home side are value to make it back to back wins against Paris.

PSV Reserves complete the treble, another side who I think are good value for their price. They’ve won 6 of their last 8 games and come into this one on the back of an impressive 5-0 thumping of Eindhoven. Helmond on the other hand are in dire form. 0 wins in their last 8 league games and no clean sheet on the road since November. Helmond have failed to score in 47% of their away games and at 8/13 PSV Reserves must be backed.
