Basel v Thun
Sunday 15:00
Orebro beat Ostersunds 2-1 in Sweden yesterday to deliver our fifth win in six bets this week.
Our shift finishes in Switzerland, where one of this afternoon's three Swiss Super League games pits FC Basel at home to Thun. Both teams have scored in each of their last six meetings at St Jakob Park and we fancy they will deliver more goals when they meet today.
Both teams have also scored in each of Basel's first five matches of the new season (home and away). At St Jakob Park, Raphael Wicky's hosts have won their first two matches 4-2 and 3-2. Going back into last term, 5/6 games there have delivered Over 3.5 Goals and that's our bet for today.
Marc Schneider's Thun have also seen both teams score in 5/5 Super League games this season. On the road, their last two matches have brought a 2-3 defeat then a 5-1 win. Since Schneider took charge, more than half of their away matches have produced at least four match goals (11/20), which makes today's odds-against price on Over 3.5 Goals a generous one.
