Europa League football is back from its winter break and one of the last 32 ties of the round pits Scottish Premiership champions Celtic against Spanish La Liga side Valencia this Thursday (kick-off 20:00 GMT).
Brendan Rodgers’ Bhoys entertain Los Che at Parkhead in the first leg and bring a 100 per cent football record across all competitions in 2019 after a perfect seven wins.
These two teams have met before in the old UEFA Cup back in 2001. Both won their home legs 1-0 before Valencia edged past the Hoops on penalties.
Cetlic top scorer Scott Sinclair has struck in four of those seven successive wins and netted as many goals as he’s played matches this year.
Off the back of hitting a hat-trick against St Johnstone last time out, Sinclair looks well work backing in a 13/2 enhanced wincast with William Hill.
Ten of his 16 goals across all competitions have come in the last nine games, so Sinclair really is in scintillating form.
Hoops keeping it clean
Valencia are in Glasgow off the back of three consecutive draws and drew a blank at the Mestalla against Real Sociedad when last in action.
They have failed to win 24 games already this season and now travel to a buoyant Bhoys outfit who have responded to that Old Firm defeat over Christmas in the best possible way.
Another encouraging stat is Celtic have won all of their matches this year so far without conceding. Their defence as well as Sinclair at the other end should be high in confidence here.
The 7/5 with Betfair for a Bhoys victory is greatly enhanced by adding Sinclair to get a goal anytime. This is one price boost you should seriously consider.
Backing Sinclair just to score in this game is 100/30 at betway, so combining the two outcomes really does make sense at the odds on offer.
Bet of the day: Enhanced Sinclair wincast at 13/2 with William Hill.
