The Betfair Football £10 Bet of the Day
Day 69: We're backing Legia Warsaw to beat Arka Gdynia at [1.51]
It's been a successful week for our daily £10 wager, with three wins out of four so far earning £18.40 to spend over the weekend. We're not finished yet though and are hoping to make it four from five with a similar bet to yesterday's.
Once again, we're putting our faith in a fairly convincing favourite in a foreign match that Betfair customers can watch live at 7pm courtesy of Betfair Live Video, sticking our tenner on Legia Warsaw outclassing Arka Gdynia in the Polish Ekstraklasa at the highly respectable price of [1.51].
The eight-time Polish champions Legia haven't made a brilliant start to the season as they chase their first title in five years, triumphing in seven of their 13 games yet losing the other six, however their home form has been solid, claiming victory in four of their six at the Stadion Wojska Polskiego.
Their opponents, master escapologists Arka Gdynia, are heading for yet another relegation battle and, given that they are unbeaten at home, the blame for that position lies solely on their away record.
They've picked up just two points on their travels so far and haven't even found the net, last winning away in March. Arka have also lost five in a row against the capital club without scoring and seeing as Legia don't do draws, it's difficult, if not impossible, to look beyond the home win.
Our bet: We're backing Legia Warsaw to defeat Arka Gdynia at [1.51], meaning that - before factoring in commission - we stand to win £5.10. The same punt pays only £4.44 with Ladbrokes and Paddy Power. Sign up for a new account now and have losing bets up to a total of £30 refunded for a week.
