Football Bet of the Day: Things won't get Messi for Sporting Gijon

Barcelona might not have everything their own way in Gijon tonight

"Sporting are W3-D4-L4 at El Molinon this season and just one of those defeats has been by more than the odd goal"

Back Sporting Gijon +2.0 & +2.5 on the Asian Handicap @ 2.1011/10 v Barcelona

Tobias Gourlay's putting his neck on the line and going against the European and world club champions in Spain tonight

Sporting Gijon v Barcelona
Thursday 17:30

In very un-Christian spirit, the Minstermen of York City failed to share the goals around last night, beating Exeter 2-0 and leaving us one short of our target.

We're heading back to the Continent today for a bonus Spanish Liga game. European and world champions Barcelona are headed north to Gijon.

Their hosts are W3-D4-L4 at El Molinon this season and just one of those defeats has been by more than the odd goal.

Luis Enrique's Liga leaders are W6-D2-L2 on the road. Only one of those victories has come with a margin of victory of more than two goals. Since Enrique took charge, the Blaugrana have won only 6/29 road games by more than a couple of goals.
