I am breaking my vow to stay away from France forever...funny how often I make and break this vow. Taking Grenoble to win at -125, could have had it for better odds before I went to bed last night but too much
.
Anyway, my real pick for today:
Soccer - Libourne/Bastia - total Over 2½ (+116)
for the regulation time held on Sep 14 at 1:00pm [pending]
Libourne is a team I usually take with a O 2 line at poor odds, and when I saw this I thought I'd go for the plus money. Libourne is the best overs team in Ligue 2, though they are coming off a stretch of low-scoring games (goals in their games this season, in order: 4, 3, 4, 2, 2, 1). Bastia has a horrid defense, allowing 2+ in four of their six games this season. Two other things speak to overs here: Bastia is in 16th, Libourne in 19th, so both need to start winning. And the head to head is something to see: Last season Libourne lost at home to Bastia 2-4 and 2-3 on the road.
