Can Porto Withstand The Blues

Written By: admin on February 21, 2012 No Comment

On Thursday night, we see the Europa League title holders, FC Porto take on Manchester City. Sports betting on this match is very evenly matched with most bookmakers not really knowing which will it will go. The two sides never played against each other, unless you count a friendly in 2006 pre-season. Porto have not been defeated in seven European home games, and look strong contenders for the title again.

This season, with the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, Valencia, Stoke and Lazio etc in the competition, bookmakers have a complete range of markets to bet online. Every match this week, has the full set of betting that one is accustomed to in the Premier League.

Paddy Power Bet, one of the leading bookmakers in the industry, has not only a wide range of betting on the Europa League, but has also fashioned a Money Back Special on the Porto VS Manchester City game. Briefly, it states if Manchester City lead the game at half time but fail to win Paddy Power will refund all losing 1st/last goalscorer, correct score & scorecast singles on the match.

Anyone who knows me, will confirm that I love these types of sports betting specials. They provide the customer with the chance of getting something back, and the bookmaker is always admired for taking on some more risk.

My bet online with the Irish Bookmaker will be a £40 WinCast, With Porto to win and Kleber to score anytime, priced at 9/2.
