Booking Tips: Three defenders to be shown a card on Champions League Wednesday
Matchday 3 in the Champions League continues on Wednesday night and our specials bookings tipster Marc Morrison (@TheMarcMorrison) is back again following a winning debut last Wednesday with three more players to be booked put together for five different football predictions!
Adrien Rabiot obliged for me last week picking up a booking in Juventus's defeat at home to Barcelona on Matchday 2 at odds of 11/4 and I'm hoping to follow that up on Wednesday with three defenders up against tough opposition whom I think are overpriced.
First up, Benjamin Henrichs will be up against it with the pace of PSG as his RB Leipzig side look to bounce back from last week's humiliating 5-0 defeat at Old Trafford. With the French champions playing a front three and getting the ball wide this should see plenty of the action down the German's side of the pitch and he looks a big price at 7/2.
For my second two tips I've gone to the Istanbul Basaksehir v Manchester United clash and first up I like the look of a familiar name in Martin Skrtel who is 9/4 to be booked at Bet365.
From his time in England we saw how rash Skrtel can be, also he is coming to the end of his career and lacks the pace to keep the likes of Rashford, Martial and Greenwood quiet. He will be right up for this game against United with his Liverpool connections and I'm hoping an over-zealous challenge could get him in trouble.
Add to that another Basaksehir defender in Boli Bolingoli Mbombo, who is a slightly bigger price for a card at 13/5.
I watched Boli play for Celtic last season a few times, I don’t think he is of Champions League level and he will be up against it with United’s quick, young counter attacking front line.
I think this will bring a few cards for the Turkish side so I'm happy to add these two players to a bet builder with Bet365 which works out at an 11/1 shot . Double that bet up with the Benjamin Heinrich to be carded selection and we've got a nice 53/1 chance for all three to be booked on Wednesday night.
Good luck!
