Europa League preview

I wrote a 2,000 + word email for subscribers about the Europa League today, including a 25-1 outright selection and three match previews. I spoke about one team that I suspect might have booked the wrong training facilities, turning up at Stalag 13 instead of the Ritz ! Another who seem sure to tire badly due to the training they have done and a third where I believe one team has very questionable motivation for the match.

clubgowi tweets for tonight's Champions and Football League action ....

Paris SG are 8-1-0 in their last nine Ligue 1 starts, where they have enjoyed an average of 60% possession and a 21-1 goal difference, Ibrahimovic has scored eight of those, but I like the fact that eight other players have got on the scoresheet over this sequence.

Valencia are vastly experienced at this level and they are unbeaten in nine home Champions League starts, but they are a bit of a flat track bully at Mestalla and tend to perform less well against the really big name teams.

French Ligue 2 Betting Preview: Le Havre v Dijon

Big game for Le Havre, they are hopeful of getting into the promotion hunt and are "going" for results at present, if they lose the odd match along the way then so be it, but they are no longer so fearful of losing. They collected a hard earned win on that terrible pitch at Ajaccio last week and sit just six points off the promotion places, this is the first (and easiest) of four starts in a row against top seven teams and they will be targeting maximum points today, ahead of a trip to Monaco next week.

Big game for "our " Watford tonight, as they would move up into second place in the Championship (which would give us the top two) with a win at Bristol City.
