The Betfair Football £10 Bet of the Day
Day 20: We're backing Cottbus to defeat Karlsruhe and Crotone to draw with Modena in a double at [5.66]
There's plenty of football to bet on this week and we're going to kick it off with a double combining the second-tier fixtures taking place in Germany and Italy tonight.
Over in the Bundesliga 2, Cottbus have sustained the form that saw them lose just one of their final seven matches last season by winning their opening two this time around against Fortuna Dusseldorf and Arminia Bielefeld, both teams who finished above them in 2009-10.
They're just shy of evens to get the better of Karlsruhe in front of their own fans, and as the visitors' first away game of the campaign was a comprehensive 4-1 loss to Greuther Furth, and they've triumphed in only one of their last seven against Cottbus, it looks a sound bet.
In Serie A, draw specialists Crotone host high-flying Modena in a match that screams spoil-sharer. Neither club have been beaten so far and though Modena are higher in the table, Crotone have lost only three of their last 63 home ties. This one is live for Betfair customers to watch on Betfair Live Video.
Our bet: We're backing Cottbus to beat Karlsruhe and Crotone to draw with Modena in a double at [5.66] - so without considering commission - we stand to win £46.60. Sign up for a new account now and have losing bets up to £30 refunded for a week.
