Europa League picks provide 70/1 Correct Score Double win

Our tips & results

Roma 2-0 Salzburg
Manchester United 2-1 Barcelona

We used our score predictions for Manchester United’s huge showdown with Barcelona and Roma’s clash with Salzburg for our Correct Score Double on Thursday to land this huge bet.

Roma raced into a 2-0 lead with two goals inside seven minutes towards the end of the first half but that proved to be the end of the scoring in Italy as the Serie A side recorded a 2-1 aggregate victory.

Robert Lewandowski put Barca ahead from the penalty spot in the first half at Old Trafford but Fred and Antony responded as United claimed a 4-3 aggregate win over the Catalan giants, and saw our bet over the line.

10/1 Acca & 9/2 overnight treble wins

We enjoyed further success across the Europa League and Europa Conference League as a 10/1 fourfold accumulator landed.

Roma’s win and both teams to score at Old Trafford were combined with victories for Rennes and Lech.

Rennes saw off Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 and then triumphed in extra time, while in the Europa Conference League Lech claimed a 1-0 win over Bodo/Glimt to secure their place in the next round.

Our expert tipsters also covered the action in Costa Rica and Mexico last night to pick out a 9/2 treble and a best bet.

We opted for a Municipal Perez Zeledon double chance (win or draw) result and they played out a 1-1 draw with Guadalupe FC, and goals markets provided the other legs as both teams scored in Puntarenas meeting with Sporting San Jose and Toluca won 5-0 at Santos Laguna for an over 2.5 goals selection.

NBA & NHL provide further wins

The NBA returned after the All-Star break and we landed a Point Spread double as Philadelphia 76ers beat a -3.5 handicap in their 110-105 win over Memphis Grizzlies and Dallas Mavericks thrashed San Antonio Spurs 142-116 to beat a -14 handicap.

The LA Lakers -5.5 in the Point Spread provided our NBA best bet win with a 13-point win over Golden State Warriors, while a Money Line win for Vancouver Canucks over St Louis Blues was our NHL best bet and those two selections also provided us with a US Sports Best Bets Double success.

Finally, our NHL Double landed with the New Jersey Devils beating LA Kings and over 6.5 goals being scored in Vegas Golden Knights’ 4-3 win over Calgary Flames.
