Atletico can prove they're the Real deal

By
Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid
Saturday 19:45 (Live on BT Sport Europe)
Real 2.54, Atletico 3.35, The Draw 3.20
Match Odds
Since 2001, 6/15 Champions League finals have gone to extra-time. That too suggests the draw is generously priced at 3.20. With both sides at full strength and bringing solid defences to this weekend's jamboree, we're expecting another close encounter. Low-scoring games (see below) are more likely to be drawn, so we're bracing for a 2016 Champions League final that's short on goals and long on duration.
Over/Under 2.5 Goals
Since April last year, there have been four Madrid derbies. Between them, they've produced just four goals. Going back to February 2014 again, 8/12 meetings have ended with two goals or fewer, and Under 2.5 Goals is a firm favourite for this weekend.
Method of Victory
Instead of just backing the draw, back both teams to win on penalties to level stakes - both at10.50 - and, in the event of a draw followed by another goalless extra-time, you'll be paid out at odds of 5.25.
Best Bet
Back the draw @ 3.20

Tottenham’s Dele Alli eyes Premier League debut at Manchester United

By
It was quite the opening statement. Dele Alli, 24 minutes into his first start in a Tottenham Hotspur shirt, suckered in Luka Modric of Real Madrid, nutmegged him and accelerated away. The 70,000 sell-out crowd at Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena roared at the 19-year-old’s sheer impudence. "We had a laugh about it in the tunnel afterwards; he was very good about it,” Alli said. "He shook my hand and said to me: ‘You little bugger’ – or something like that. I didn’t shout ‘nuts’ when I did it. I used to do that when I was young and get told off for it." As Alli spoke at the Allianz after Tuesday’s 2-0 Audi Cup victory, some of Real’s galácticos filed past. This time last year the midfielder was preparing for MK Dons’ League One season opener against Gillingham. His previous competitive game was for MK against Yeovil in May. Alli says “unreal” and “surreal” on a number of occasions and it is little wonder. This is a young player of conviction. If the nutmeg on one of...

Biggest ever UEFA international qualifying scorelines in history

By
In light of UEFA footballing minnows Andorra, Gibraltar, Malta and San Marino all taking on much higher-ranked opponents Portugal, Belgium, England and Northern Ireland respectively this international break, that got Coral writers thinking. Goals galore are expected in each of those fixtures, so we find out some of the biggest scorelines in the history of World Cup and Euro qualifying from European nations. England 8-0 Turkey (1987) We start off with England and, although their 8-0 win is not the biggest scoreline on the list, it was against one of the most high profile – Turkey. Ahead of Euro 1988, the Three Lions battered the Turkish outfit, thanks to a hat-trick from Gary Lineker and a brace from John Barnes, while Bryan Robson, Peter Beardsley and Neil Webb also chipped in. Spain 8-0 Liechtenstein (2016) Most recently, Spain hammered tiny territory Liechtenstein 8-0 too this current World Cup 2018 qualifying campaign, thanks to braces from Diego Costa, David S...
