I know some other tipsters give out early prices and I am not normally one to do it but there's a game on Saturday where bet365 offer 4.75 and other firms have a far more realistic 3.75. As I'd done the write-up I thought I may as well get this out in the open.
Real Zaragoza v Recreativo Huelva (spain – sat 8pm local time)
Last weekend Recreativo gave Barcelona a run for their money and it was interesting to see the first choice Barça rearguard being given the runaround by former Liverpool striker Sinama-Pongolle and Villareal loanee Rubin. Recre have lost 3 of their last 10 matches but those defeats were against Real Madrid with some dubious ref decisions, a crazy 7-1 defeat at Mallorca and a loss away at 5th place Santander. None of these a disgrace and it’s a bit of a surprise to see them at such a long price against a Zaragoza team in crisis. Zaragoza have taken just 5 points from a possible 30. They have won just once in the last 10 games, losing 7 of those and are on their 3rd manager of the season. The fans have been on their back and stayed behind after the last home game, a 3-0 defeat by Betis, to scream abuse at each player as he got in his car. This game is a relegation battle and with Zaragoza in the bottom 3 and Recre one place above them but 3 points better off it is the classic 5 pointer and a Recreativo win would put Zaragoza at least 5 points from safety. The pressure is all on Zaragoza and Recreativo are the team in better form and the price on offer looks crazy.
