"The Joker's Bet of the Day: Lay Slavia Sofia at [1.74] to beat Sportist Svoge"

Try to make up a name for an Eastern European football club, and you might come up with Slavia Sofia. The Joker had never heard of them either, but someone thinks they are quite good because they are [1.62] favourites to beat Sportist Svoge this evening.

Is that someone right? Possibly not.

Recommendation: Lay Slavia Sofia at [1.74] to beat Sportist Svoge
