Level 1 Bet Builder Tip

🏆 Girona -1 Handicap

📈 Odds: 1.57

Slovan Bratislava have conceded nine goals in their two Champions League games so far - only Dinamo Zagreb have conceded more. That includes shipping five goals at Celtic Park. They conceded 16 shots and nine big chances, totaling 3.79 xG. In the proceeding game against Man City at home, Slovan were defeated 4-0. Again, the Slovakian side leaked chances, conceding 3.72 xG from 28 shots, and eight big chances. Although Girona find themselves in a bit of a rut of poor form, this is an ideal opportunity to take advantage of an extremely poor Slovan defence, particularly in front of a home crowd. Girona will need to utilise this opportunity to register their first points in the Champions League, pushing for the playoff spots.

🎯 Arnaut Danjuma to have 1+ Shots On Target

📈 Odds: 1.17

With Victor Tsygankov ruled out with a thigh injury and Bryan Gil doubtful, Arnaut Danjuma is expected to shoulder a large attacking responsibility in this game. He started the previous game in a more advanced attacking role on the left wing, able to invert into central positions as Miguel Gutierrez was able to hold width. Because of that, Danjuma often found himself in the left half-space, an ideal position for shots. In that game, he managed two shots on target. Being right-footed as well, the angles were favourable for Danjuma to shoot - he should operate in a similar zone on Tuesday. Given that Danjuma now faces one of the poorest defences in Europe, he is one to target in the attacking third.

🧤 Slovan Bratislava GK to make 3+ Saves

📈 Odds: 1.30

Slovan goalkeeper Dominik Takac has made 17 saves across the two European games, which is the most of any keeper in the Champions League so far. He made seven saves at Celtic Park in round one of the Champions League, before a massive ten saves against Man City at home. Considering he has also conceded nine goals on top of that, highlights how leaky the Slovan defence has been, and that trend seems set to persist against Girona. The Spanish side have drawn at least three saves from the opposition goalkeeper in each of their last four games. Last time out in the Champions League at home, Girona lost 3-2 to Feyenoord. In that game, Feyenoord keeper Timon Wellenreuther made four saves.

🛑 Ivan Martin to Commit 1+ Fouls

📈 Odds: 1.40

Ivan Martin has made a foul in six of his last seven games for Girona, operating in a defensive midfield role alongside Yangel Herrera. He has played the full 90 minutes in each of his last five, a testament to his importance under manager Miguel. Slovan Bratislava are a fantastic matchup for drawing fouls, given that they were fouled 23 times in their most recent game against Spartak Trnava in the Fortuna Liga. Tigran Barseghyan, Kyriakos Savvidis and Artur Gajdos drew a combined 12 fouls, and should feature in a similar zone of the field to Ivan Martin. Slovan drew just eight fouls from Man City in a tough matchup, but they were fouled 16 times against Celtic in their other European match.

Level 2 Bet Builder Tip

🚩 Over 5.5 Girona Corners

📈 Odds: 1.44

Celtic accumulated 11 corners against Slovan Bratislava in their opening Champions League game, as the Slovakian outfit mustered up just 39% possession. Man City also cleared this line comfortably, racking up 15 corners in Bratislava. Girona are a team who look to dominate the ball, which marries up nicely with Slovan’s tendency to sit deep. In Girona’s previous game against Feyenoord, the Spanish side accrued 66% possession, and registered 11 corners. They should look to dominate this game in a similar manner, making corners a target. Girona are averaging 5.5 corners per game at the Montilivi Stadium this season, with six or more landing in each of the last three games.

🛑 Yangel Herrera to Commit 2+ Fouls

📈 Odds: 1.20

Since returning from injury, Yangel Herrera has been a mainstay in the Girona eleven, starting each of the last five games. He has committed 13 fouls in that time, averaging 2.6 fouls per game. He has also picked up four yellow cards in that set of matches. This season, Herrera has an average of 2.99 fouls per 90, comfortably the highest in the Girona squad, which highlights his willingness to duel strongly in midfield. That average increases to 3.46 fouls per 90 when playing at home, with at least two fouls in all five games in all competitions. He now draws a fantastic matchup against Slovan Bratislava, who have drawn some notable foul counts this season.

🎯 Yangel Herrera to have 1+ Shots On Target

📈 Odds: 1.44

Yangel Herrera is also one to target for shots in this game, as he tends to push forward into advanced areas, with Ivan Martin generally happier to sit deep. His role should be analogous to that of Ilkay Gundogan for Man City. When playing against Slovan, Gundogan managed three shots in total, with two on target and one goal. Yangel Herrera has registered a shot in eight out of nine games this season, including each of his last four home games. Given that Slovan have conceded 25 shots on target in their two games so far, preferring to sit deep in a low block, Girona should have plenty of chances in the final third with Herrera able to get forward.

🚀 Kevin Wimmer to have 1+ Shots

📈 Odds: 3.30

Kevin Wimmer plays as a left back for Slovan Bratislava, but has a tendency to push forward to join Slovan attacks, creating numerical overloads. The Austrian has seen an uptick in shots recently, managing at least one effort in five of his last seven appearances. Notably, Wimmer registered a shot in both Champions League games so far, including a goal against Celtic. He also accounted for one shot out of just three efforts in total for Slovan against Man City. With that in mind, his price at 3.3 to repeat that looks too large on the surface. Wimmer tends to fancy himself from distance, which also is useful given that clear cut chances might be less common against Girona.
