The Joker's Bet of the Day: Dynamo to power ahead early

Alon Turgeman got the only goal of a turgid game in Israel last night. But, no matter, a winning bet's like being paid to watch. Even if the football's bad, there are worse ways to eke a living.

You can be fairly sure that Dynamo Kiev are going to win this evening. That's just what they do at home in the Ukrainian league - doing it for years, in fact. Domestically only Shakhtar can match them. Dynamo have won 11/12 at the Olimpiysky and been ahead by half-time in five of their most recent eight successes. Tavriya are the visitors this evening and they've been behind at half-time and full-time on nine of their last 11 trips to the Big Two.

Recommended Bet: Back Dynamo Kiev/Dynamo Kiev @ 1.608/13 v Tavriya
