DRAW OF THE WEEK
Here is the best of the best draw tips for the week.
Belgian Second Division – Club Brugge B v Anderlecht B
ODDS – DRAW $3.40
FORM / STATS – They may be B sides in the second division in Belgium, but this is an A Grade game for a draw. Three of the last four games between these sides ended in a draw. All score draws for those who love a draw and a goal, or two. And for good measure, Club Brugge B drew their last game at home.
Turkish 1 Lig – Genclerbirligi v Goztepe
ODDS – DRAW $3.00
FORM / STATS – Two games ago these teams fought out a 0-0 draw, which may be of little interest to either sets of fans but is maximum interest for draw fans. Genclerbirligi’s recent form gives confidence of a stalemate this weekend. They have drawn four of their past five in the league and drawn three of their last four at home. Goztepe may not have the draws on the board this season – one each home and away in seven matches, but they have only conceded three goals in all their away games this season.
Hungary NBII League – Tiszakecske v Kozarmisleny
ODDS – DRAW $3.25
FORM / STATS – The last time these teams met at Tiszakecske it ended up in a draw. So that box is ticked nicely. 50% of Tiszakecske’s home games have ended in a draw too.
Polish – GKS Jastrzebie v KKS Kalisz
ODDS – DRAW $3.25
FORM / STATS – GKS Jastrzebie drew at home three games ago. Which means our draw draft is off to a slow start. And GKS Jastrzebie had their last draw 4 games ago. So not much draw form but the odds say draw.
UK DRAW SPECIAL OF THE WEEK
With so many divisions, there should be so many draws to choose from. Frankington Stanley chooses his draw from any and every division in the UK.
National League South – Taunton Town v Farnborough
ODDS – DRAW $3.25
FORM / STATS – So no draw in the last six meetings between these sides, but never fear, the draw is lurking in each team’s form. Taunton Town have drawn two of their last four home games and Farnborough have drawn four of their 10 away games this season. Looking deeper than just the league Taunton Town have drawn three of their last four in all competitions.
BIG FIVE LEAGUE DRAW SPECIAL OF THE WEEK
Some have accused us of picking easy leagues for our draws. First of all, how dare you, secondly we introduce of Big Five League draw of the week, where we scan the five biggest leagues in Europe for the finest draws. It could be Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 or the Premier League, but what it will always be is a quality eye for a draw.
Serie A – Salernitana v Bologna
ODDS – DRAW $3.25
FORM / STATS – Bologna were included in the Big Five League Draw of the Week last week, and they duly saluted with a solid 1-1 draw with Lecce away. That made it six draws out of seven away games this season so far. So why wouldn’t we stick with them. This week they play Salernitana who have a modest three draws from seven home games this season but are dead last on the overall Serie A ladder so might settle for a draw.
Good news too, that the last three games between Salernitana and Bologna ended in a draw. What more do you need or want?
