Our safe matches today are:

Coventry to win or draw against Swansea

Fc Viikingit to beat Fc Kiisto

Molde to beat Aalesund

First match is English Championship league. Coventry have had a decent start to the league sitting in 4th with 2 wins and 1 draw. Swansea is second last with 1 draw and 2 lost. Swansea have had the tougher competition in the first three matches and their last game was a draw with Reading on home field. And Swansea have some decent results against the top teams. One problem is, that they are not scoring any goals. One goal so far in the league and 5 against them. Coventry could have somewhat the similar story. They are scoring a few goals. 4 goals in 3 matches and only one has gone in against them but it has been against weaker teams. Between these two teams the usual score is a draw. And less than 2.5 goals. So there might be another bet for you. And I also think this is going to be close. But Coventry is at home and they are a good team. Swansea is looking for a win, but I do not think it will come against Coventry. A close match. Perhaps with a 1-0 or 0-0, so we have taken the win/draw option.

The next match is from 2nd division in Finland. Viikingit is second in the league and are playing 3rd last in the league. Viikingit has the extra motivation. By winning they can go up and take the first place in the league. Their home record is also good. 6 wins, 2 draws and 1 lost. Goalscore of 15-4. Kiistos away form is 2 drawn and 5 lost with a goalscore of 4-16. Kiisto has not won a match in a long time and their morale must be going down and they seem to be able to loose to every team, no matter of league placing. Kiisto is performing well and should have the high grounds and take this one.

Last match is from Norwegian premier league. 2nd place Molde is playing 12th place Aalesund. There is not really any doubt this season, that Rosenborg will take first place. They have not lost a match this year. Except to Molde in the Cup match. Important thing to notice. Molde is the only team to have beaten Rosenborg this year. And they did it by 5-0. Top performance. They did loose to Viking last round, but I do not believe it will tell us anything. Aalesund played 3rd place Odd Grenland on home last week and lost 2-1. Today they are up against a better team AND on away terms. I cannot see anything other than a victory for Molde.

Odds on these 3 matches are 1.99 and I am betting 10.

I will be posting a couple of accums later.
