Sheffield Utd vs Aston Villa - EPL Monday - great spot for Sheffield here off of two wins at Watford and home to Charton and playing very strong defense at home all season. Their three home losses were to only top-7 clubs (Man U, Chelsea, Reading) and they should relish this Monday night fixture. Villa on a downtrend now wotjpit a wom om 4 games and just two wins in 10. Their lone road win, at Everton, was not at all deserved but then again they've only lost at Liverpool. Gareth Barry is a really important missing for Villa and as Villa drops to midtable I like Sheffield to grab this one. Sheffield United level ball 3/10 @2.01 (pinn)

I like that side as well. Am I crazy for laying the juice and taking +0.5? Was leaning towards doing that because I expect a defensive game, and Villa has been a draw machine, especially away from home.

depends on how much juice...would be really high I assume, but sure the +1/2 is a good option

Braga vs Grasshoppers - UEFA cup - good stats play though a meaningless game for Grasshoppers. Braga are 5-1 overs in domestic league at home with last three games ending 4-2, 3-2, 1-4 and they've also gone over in 5/6 overall domestically. GC getting pounded in the cup games, losing 0-4, 1-4, 2-5 in the group. Last weekend they allowed 3 goals in domestic match against very poor Schaffhausen so a 3 goal output from Braga seems likely. Braga/GC over 2.75 goals 3.5/10 @2.01 pinn
