• Europa League Betting Preview: Wolfsburg v Fulham

    They may have been formidable at the Cottage this season but Fulham have a terrible away record and they will have to be at their best if they are to keep the German champions at bay. Richard Aikman selects the best bets. “How Fulham can be expected to beat the resurgent Germans is a mystery. Fortunately, they don’t have to and a draw 4.0 would appear to be their best chance of progressing.” Life would be a great deal easier for Fulham had they not conceded a last-minute goal against Wolfsburg and their abysmal away record suggests a draw 4.0 is the best they can hope for in the return leg. Goals by Bobby Zamora and Damien Duff put the Cottagers in the box seat last week, but Alexander Madlung’s late effort has left the tie hanging in the balance. It’s not that Wolfsburg should hold any particular fear for Fulham, even if they did hammer Hoffenheim 4-0 at home on Saturday with Edin Dzeko scoring twice, but their woeful travel sickness is their greatest enemy. Fulham have not won on the road in eight attempts, and that victory came against Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup back in January. Worse still, the Londoners’ other away scalps this season number just three: Basle, Vetra and Portsmouth

  • Champions League Betting: Bordeaux v Lyon

    Tobias Gourlay expects Lyon to down a less-than-vintage Bordeaux. Recommended Bet: Back the Draw at 3.5 Wednesday’s quarter final between Bordeaux and Lyon is guaranteed to give France its first Champions League semi-finalist since Monaco six years ago. Lyon , who lost at this stage in 2004, 2005 and 2006, are 1.26 favourites to progress as they take a 3-1 lead to Bordeaux’s Stade Chaban-Delmas. After a seven-year reign, Bordeaux deposed Lyon as French champions last season. Their lack of European experience was expected to count against them in this competition, but they were prepared well by Laurent Blanc and thus far have won all four of their home matches. They do not, however, have very good recent form, losing matches in three different competitions in the last 10 days. Captain Alou Diarra has recognised that, ‘The team is affected morally,’ which doesn’t sound good. Certainly, they have been weakened by the absence of central-defender Marc Planus .
