6th Nov 2014 | Europa League
Encore Une Fois
St Etienne have drawn all 3 of their Europa League matches 0-0 and Group F has averaged a meagre 0.67 goals per fixture overall.
Group F in the Europa League may eventually go down as the dullest in the history of the competition. Here are the results so far:
Quarabag 0-0 St Etienne
Dnipro 0-1 Inter
St Etienne 0-0 Dnipro
Inter 2-0 Quarabag
Inter 0-0 St Etienne
Dnipro 0-1 Quarabag
Remarkably, St Etienne have managed to play three matches without a single goal going in at either end and the others haven’t exactly been vibrant!
Tonight the French side host Inter and it’s very tempting to take the best price 7/1 (BetVictor) on yet another 0-0 outcome. However, the second half between these two was pretty open a fortnight ago and you can’t help but think that something has to give eventually.
We can therefore slightly hedge our bets by taking the best price 33/20 (Sportingbet) on under 1.5 goals in the match and that way we profit nicely if either side nicks it or if it’s goalless again.
