S.P.Read Esq: Man City v Juventus
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the Champions League match at 7.45pm tonight between MAN CITY v JUVENTUS and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
Nice and easy profit last night with the recommended Star Spreads supremacy bet on West Ham against Newcastle.
As much as I have been impressed with Man City in the Premier League this season I’m not getting too carried away as the main story has surely been the abject form and consistency from their rivals? Notably, Chelsea of course.
That said, they will relish the chance to take on last year’s finalists Juventus tonight at the Etihad as the two teams couldn’t be in more contrasting form heading into the first match of the Champions League Group phase.
The Sky Blues are sky high and unbeaten in the Premier League but Juventus have made their worst ever start to a Serie A campaign with just one point from three matches.
With that in mind – many punters could well get drawn in by a special market tonight on Star Spreads…….
“EASY STREET”
The special market makes up as follows…….
50 points Man City Win Match
50 points Man City Clean Sheet
50 points per Juventus Red Card
50 points per penalty awarded to Man City (doesn’t need to be scored)
50 points per Man City goal scored in last 10 minutes (goal times 80.01 to end of match)
(Yes, Man City scoring a penalty in last 10 minutes would score in both categories)
The Easy Street special is trading at 74-80 at the time of writing.
Man City will be without striker Sergio Aguero will after he injured his knee during City’s 1-0 win at Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Manuel Pellegrini’s options are boosted though as Raheem Sterling has recovered from a hamstring problem and David Silva is available after ankle trouble.
City haven’t always converted their domestic form to the Champions League (fifth Champions League campaign but never progressed past the last 16) but are surely well placed tonight to get the Group phase off to a winning start which they may well need to as Group D looks one of the tougher groups.

The Star Spreads Easy Street special makes some appeal on the basis I think City will win, so with 50 points up for grabs that immediately mitigates the down side. There must be a good chance of a clean sweep too and anything else really would be a bonus.
