Football Bet of the Day: Reus and co to sweep Swabians aside

Borussia Dortmund v Augsburg

A comfortable Monday evening for Dortmund

A strong end to the week for Tobias and for PSG, who bashed Marseille last night and comfortably covered the Asian Handicap.
We're kicking off our week in Germany. Usually it's quite tricky to get a ticket for a Borussia Dortmund game on the day, but with thousands of fans boycotting the match as part of protests against the German version of Monday Night Football, we'll be ok to check out BVB v Augsburg.
Dortmund have been far from perfect under coach Peter Stoger since his arrival in December, but they are much tougher to beat than they were under his predecessor Peter Bosz. Their only loss was away to Bayern Munich in the DFB Cup, and on Thursday they recovered from an awful start at Atalanta to progress through to the last 16 of the Europa League. At home they have won their last two matches, and in all competitions they have won four of their last five outings.
Augsburg have spent most of the season massively exceeding expectations, but they have faded badly in recent weeks. They have only collected four points from their last five matches, and the goals have dried up for their hitherto dangerous forwards Michael Gregoritsch and Alfred Finnbogason.
FCA have recently lost at Schalke, Borussia Monchengladbach and RB Leipzig, and they conceded seven goals in the process. I believe BVB can take advantage of their slump, and with the outstanding Marco Reus likely to return to the starting line-up, I'm predicting a comfortable home win. Reus, Andre Schurrle, Michy Batshuayi and Mario Gotze have started to click, and I think a hammering is coming for someone.

Southampton v Arsenal: Gunners set for a night of frustration

By
Southampton v Arsenal Wednesday, 19:45 Southampton  Claude Puel has done a decent job at Southampton this season, but his future at the club could rest on how well his team performs in their last four games of the season. The Saints can finish as high as eighth or as low as 16th. A bottom-half finish could be enough to seal the fate of the former Nice manager, with rumours suggesting that the club hierarchy are considering his future. It's true that Southampton's Premier League campaign has been rather underwhelming, with the side struggling to find any consistency this season, yet Puel did guide them to the EFL Cup final. He's inherited a weaker squad than previous managers enjoyed, which has lacked firepower for much of the season. Charlie Austin could return against Arsenal to help to solve that problem, while the defender Matt Targett is another player in contention. Virgil can Dijk remains out. Arsenal The Gunners gave themselves hope o...
