talkSPORT betting tips – Best football bets and expert advice for Thursday 19 December
Tottenham and Manchester United meet for a place in the Carabao Cup semi-finals on Thursday evening. Ange Postecoglou and Ruben Amorim go head-to-head, both off the back of morale-boosting weekend wins. Elsewhere, there is a full round of games in the Conference League including Chelsea hosting Irish side Shamrock Rovers at Stamford Bridge. GET £30 IN FREE BETS WITH TALKSPORT BET Bet of the Day Vitoria Guimares vs Fiorentina Both teams to score & over 2.5 goals – 13/10 Portuguese side Vitoria Guimares enter this sixth round of games behind only Chelsea in the Conference League standings with four wins and a draw. Both teams have scored in all five of their games so far and that should be the case again when Fiorentina visit. La Viola are a point and a place behind their hosts in the table and have scored 17 times in their five games. They have conceded four times in two away games. This sets up as another game with plenty of goals and both teams finding the net. Special of the Day Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers Over 4.5 goals – 13/10 Chelsea have scored 21 goals in the Conference League so far, with 12 of them coming in two games at Stamford Bridge. They put eight past minnows FC Noah after an opening 4-2 win over Gent here. Enzo Maresca and his side now face Shamrock Rovers, champions of Ireland four years in a row before they surrendered that honour last month to Shelbourne. Stephen Bradley’s side have done incredibly well so far and remain unbeaten after five games but facing the likes of Larne, TNS and Borac Banja Luka has been kind. They likely will face a Chelsea shadow team here but the Blues fringe players haven’t spurned chances to impress so far in this competition. They have, though, conceded in three of their five games and Shamrock Rovers could also net. They will do well not to succumb to Chelsea’s quality, however, and over 4.5 goals may land as it has in three of Chelsea’s five Conference League games – with the other two falling just one shy.
