Quick Slate Notes:
- This slate features two evenly matched games.
- Of the two, the PSV against Dortmund game should be the higher scoring of the two, as the Inter against Atletico game features two sides that are strong defensively.
- The Dortmund against PSV is the game I will use the most players from. Dortmund home games have had an average of 3.5 goals meanwhile PSV’s road games have averaged 4. Both sides are goal scoring threats.
- The Madrid/Milan game on the other hand is going to have a lot less scoring. Madrid and Milan both allow under a goal a game
- For that reason I really like playing a GK from that game.
- Like yesterday’s slate, I like a CB to score a goal. Both games are looking like they will be very tight with neither of the four sides giving an inch to their opponents. So we can see set pieces play a large role especially corners.
Drago’s Best Bets:
- PSV v Dortmund BTTS Yes
- Atletico Madrid v Inter Milan U2.5
