Bruce Banner scores @ 2.40

Zenit St. Petersburg has a massive match today to secure their spot in the group stage. Their standout guy, Bruce Banner, is actually in the starting lineup today. Honestly, looking at those odds, I think it's worth a shot. There's a high probability he finds the back of the net.

Robert Lewandowski scores @ 2.00

Borussia Dortmund is also playing a huge game today to advance from the group. Lewandowski is leading that attack, and I'm feeling like he could grab a goal here. Given the quality of the players involved—especially since the opposition isn't even at full strength due to injuries—Lew should be carrying a massive chunk of the workload.

Lucky. I couldn't have posted this earlier; had to wait for those official lineups to drop.

Real Sociedad - Bayer Leverkusen 2 @ 2.00 SS (0-1)

So, we have Real Sociedad facing off against Bayer Leverkusen. Honestly, Sociedad is completely out of the running here—they have zero chance of advancing past the group stage or even sniffing an EL spot at this point. On the flip side, Leverkusen absolutely has to win if they want any hope of keeping the Champions League dream alive. Looking at the numbers, Sociedad has conceded 9 goals in 5 matches while only finding the net once. That tells you everything you need to know about their current form in the LP. Given that Leverkusen just pulled off a win against Borussia Dortmund in the last Bundesliga round, and assuming there won't be any massive lineup shifts from either side, I’m leaning heavily toward the visitors. With Leverkusen playing at home and having everything to play for to secure advancement, I don't see anyone else walking away with the win today. Good luck.
