Tomas Rincon: Card machine

"In his last 62 away starts in Serie A, Rincon has been carded on 26 occasions."

Our football props column heads to Serie A on Saturday night and has an 11/2 shot for Inter Milan's home meeting with struggling Sampdoria...

  • Barella on song for goals and assists
  • Rincon carded in 26 of last 62 away games
  • Bet Builder double at around 11/2

Sadly, it's been another week of getting plenty right in this column without being able to generate the profits we're here for.

One of the right angles we had was for a big win for Inter in midweek only for Nicolo Barella to miss out on a goal or assist despite a strong midfield performance.

Still, like many of the suggestions we make, Barella is worth following again with Inter likely to score a few more against lowly Sampdoria on Saturday night.

Following that 4-0 success over Viktoria Plzen on Wednesday, Inter have now scored 15 goals in their last five games. Here they play host to a side sat in the relegation zone and one which has conceded multiple goals in three of five away games so far this season.

Barella has scored or assisted in seven of his last 12 games and at 7/5 in that market is worth another shot.

I'm happy to try that again, alongside a card for Samp's Tomas Rincon.

The Venezuelan midfielder has long been a man to follow in the card market, particularly away from home.

In his last 62 away starts in Serie A, he's been carded on 26 occasions.

More recently, Rincon has also been booked in two of his last three games (in all competitions).

With referee Luca Massimi averaging 4.5 yellow cards and 0.75 reds per game so far this season, Rincon gets the vote in game where Samp may well struggle to contain the hosts, at least by fair means.

The Bet Builder double pays around 11/2.
