Stuff Tottenham i wouldn't back them with a bargepole, but yes they are ALWAYS an overs bet. Here is my banker of the day. As good as Red Star! And i do like backing Greek teams lately.
Aris v Braga
Aris need to win here to make sure they qualify before going away to the tournament favourites Bayern Munich. They beat Red Star easily enough at home and were desperately unlucky to concede an equaliser in the 93rd minute away at Bolton (by Giannokopoulos of all people!). That is the only goal they have conceded in the group stages. Braga could take their place in the knockouts if they win here after two 1-1 draws with Bolton and Bayern, coming from behind both times. Braga are no pushovers but Aris are a different team at home. They have not been beaten in European competition at home since the
UEFA competition started in 1970, an amazing run of 17 games, and they have played much better teams than Braga in that time. The most telling one for me was the 1-0 defeat of Zaragoza in September of this year to put the quality Spanish side out on the away goals rule. That has persuaded me they can’t lose this. Domestically the only home defeat so far was to leaders and champions AEK 1-0, and they have only conceded four goals in all ten matches.
Braga are currently sixth in Portugal and have won only one away game, since then they have played 5 more 0-2-3, with a GD of 2-8, so they are not very good travellers.
I was very impressed with the way Aris attacked Bolton in England, playing fast and confident football. Netto especially was outstanding, and the linking up with Calvo, the goalscorer, was exceptional. Considering they are a very hard team to score against and the quality of the attack force. I just have to back the home team.
Betsafe are giving me 2.05.That will do me!
