1X2 Tips for Today
Fredrikstad vs Crystal Palace
Tip 1: Crystal Palace to win
Reason for the tip: As they travel to Norway to play Fredrikstad with a slim 1-0 lead, Crystal Palace still has some work to do to advance to the Conference League main draw.
With a road win on Thursday, the Eagles should be able to complete the task and secure their league phase berth. The best wager appears to be to support the Premier League team to win without giving up.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.60.
Rayo Vallecano vs Neman Grodno
Tip 2: Rayo Vallecano to win
Reason for the tip: In the second leg of their Europa Conference League playoff match against Neman Grodno, Rayo Vallecano returns to Madrid with a slim lead. Although the scoreboard most likely doesn’t accurately reflect their comfort, Inigo Perez’s team won the opening leg 1-0 in Grodno.
On what should be a memorable occasion at Vallecas, the La Liga team should have much too much quality for their opponents as they make their 25-year comeback to Europe. For the first time in their history, Neman is also trying to make it to the European competition’s group stage.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip, the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.50.
FC Differdange 03 vs Drita
Tip 3: FC Differdange to win
Reason for the tip: It doesn’t look like Differdange will make it to the Europa Conference League. Their current inconsistency makes things difficult, and the Drita team’s 2-1 victory over Differdange in the first leg makes it even more difficult. However, if this first-leg victory is separated from their recent run, the Drita team appears much weaker. Five losses in the previous six games demonstrate Drita’s poor play and their drop from Champions League qualifying to ECL qualifying.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.60.
Sporting Braga vs Lincoln Red Imps
Tip 4: Sporting Braga to win
Reason for the tip: Braga are heavy favourites in this matchup, boasting a much stronger squad and home advantage. Their attacking power is far superior, and they rarely slip up against lower-ranked opposition. Lincoln Red Imps have done well to reach this stage, but facing Braga away is a huge step up, making a home win the most likely outcome.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.60.
Over 2.5 Goals Tips for Today
Virtus vs Breidablik
Reason for the tip: This game appears to have the potential to grow rapidly. While Breidablik are far too daring to adopt a defensive stance, virtues are too brittle to hold out if they put their everything into it.
Given that both teams are likely to score, it seems reasonable to opt for over 3.5 goals, but the visitors should win because of their superior offensive capabilities.
Once more, Tobias Thomsen is the clear danger guy. The areas he loves to run into will be there if Virtus push high, as he scored for the Icelandic team in the first leg. If he increased his total, it wouldn’t be shocking.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.60.
Hibernians Paola vs Birkirkara FC
Reason for the tip: This is one of the biggest clashes in Maltese football, and such games rarely end quietly. Hibernians and Birkirkara both have quality strikers who can change the game, but their backlines have not been perfect. Expect an entertaining contest with goals flowing, making over 2.5 goals the ideal prediction.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.70.
Dinamo Tirana vs Jagiellonia
Reason for the tip: Both teams’ recent results clearly suggest that at least three goals are likely to be scored in this match. While Jagiellonia’s past ten games averaged an outstanding 4.0 goals, highlighting their free-flowing style and unwavering desire moving forward, Dinamo Tirana’s last ten games averaged 2.9 goals per game, demonstrating their balanced blend of attack and vulnerability. Fans should anticipate another open competition where goals come easily with these trends.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.70.
Fiorentina vs Polessya
Reason for the tip: In the first leg, the class divide was evident, and Fiorentina should once more prove to be too formidable. The Viola are in a strong position to win easily and advance with authority thanks to their superior attacking options and tactical balance.
Considering Polessya’s defensive shortcomings, another high-scoring performance is likely. Fiorentina’s propensity to produce chances in bulk should result in over 2.5 goals, but their organized backline is likely to keep control against limited attacking threats.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.70.

BTTS Tips for Today
Besiktas vs Lausanne-Sport
Reason for the tip: This game promises goals as Besiktas are very strong in attack, but they also tend to concede, especially in European fixtures. Lausanne-Sport have been consistent in finding the net even against tough opponents. With both sides likely to create chances, BTTS looks like a strong option.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.80.
Legia Warsaw vs Hibernian
Reason for the tip: Hibs must overcome a one-goal deficit against Legia in Poland on Thursday if they hope to advance to the Conference League league phase.
The Edinburgh team has worked hard to advance to a European competition’s main draw. They defeated Serbia’s Partizan in their most recent Conference League qualifying match and played well against Denmark’s Midtjylland in the Europa League qualifying match, losing that match in extra time.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.80.
FH W vs Thróttur Reykjavík W
Reason for the tip: In the Icelandic women’s league, FH W and Thróttur Reykjavík W both score regularly but rarely keep clean sheets. Their attacking style of play ensures plenty of chances for both sides. Expect both teams to get on the scoresheet in this encounter.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.80.
Linfield vs Shelbourne
Reason for the tip: Linfield, who are behind 3-1 overall, have a lot of work ahead of them as they visit Shelbourne in the second leg of their Conference League play-off. With four goals, Linfield’s dismissal in the first half, and two missed penalties, the first leg was not without drama. Even while this leg won’t be as dramatic, it should still be fun to watch. In their last two encounters, both teams have scored. They should have another thrilling game with both teams having chances to score, since their last game ended with four goals and two missed penalties.
Odds: As of the time of writing this tip the average odds for this tip in most South African bookies is 1.65.

Understanding Football Predictions
Football predictions are popular for all types of bettors. Whether you are a small-time punter or someone who bets with bigger stakes, it is important to understand how betting markets work. The last thing you want is to win a bet but then realize you placed the wager on an incorrect betting market.
Before placing any bets, you must understand the different football betting markets. Our team at Topbets has provided some FAQs on common questions that most bettors have. These questions cover all popular football betting prediction markets, such as 1×2 betting markets, BTTS, draw no bet, and correct score predictions.
What is 1×2 betting?
We’d say this is where the must-win picks are listed. Regardless of the team, you may support, it all boils down to their form or winning percentage. What makes Liverpool win a ten game streak? It surely can’t hurt that they are pitted against a team that has yet to win. That should be enough to place a very clear home win bet.
The 1×2 betting market is the easiest type of bet as there are only three possible outcomes. Either a home win (1), an away win (2), or a draw (x). Today’s soccer predictions (accumulator/multibet of the day) always include 1×2 betting tips.
What is BTTS betting?
Both teams to score (BTTS) are a favorite among bettors who love goals. This is a two-way betting market, where you predict whether or not both teams in a match will score. If two big teams are playing, who are both free-scoring, for example, Liverpool vs Arsenal, the BTTS – Yes market will be a popular soccer betting prediction for the game.
What is Over 2.5 goals?
Like the BTTS market, over 2.5 goals predicts the outcome of a game’s total number of goals. Generally, the odds on these markets are around 1.60, but if you want a safer betting option with lower odds, the over 1.5 goals market is popular. You can also bet on team totals; for example, if you think Arsenal will beat Chelsea 3-0, you can beat Arsenal to score over 2.5 goals. These odds are higher than the over 2.5 match goals since you need the Gunners to score 3 times.
What is Handicap betting?
Handicap betting is also known as spreads betting, so don’t get confused if some betting sites have different terminology. Handicap betting evens the playing field when a game has a short-priced favorite. The underdogs are given a head start with a virtual +1.5, +2.5, +3.5, etc lead. For example, if Man City were playing Ipswich at the Etihad, the 1×2 betting would be Man City at 1.15. The handicap line would be Man City -2.5 at 1.90.
This means that Ipswich is given a 2-goal head start, so for your bet on Man City -2.5 to win, the team must win by three goals. If the game ends 3-1 to City, you bet loses because Ipswich won the virtual handicap line 3 – 3.5 (1 goal scored plus the +2.5 handicap line).
What is Draw No Bet?
We mentioned 1×2 betting markets, and the draw no bet is similar, but it provides insurance on the draw option. If the match ends in a draw, your stake is refunded. The odds on draw no bet markets are lower than the 1×2 betting markets.
How to bet on Corner Kicks?
Corner kicks are not a common betting market, but you will find these at several betting brands. You can place wagers on the total match corners in a game and how many corners each team will take. Corner kicks betting is a two-way betting market, so you are betting on the overs or unders. You should study the style of play for teams, and generally, teams that attack from wide instead of through the middle of the pitch tend to get more corners.
What are Correct Score predictions?
The correct score predictions are always mentioned whenever you search for today’s football predictions. A correct score means predicting the correct final score in a game. This betting market requires careful consideration of various factors, such as team news, head-to-head results and the form of the teams. The betting odds on the correct score are always high, but these markets are more volatile than others, like the 1×2 betting markets and the BTTS markets.
Anytime Goalscorer
An educated guess based on a player’s current form and the defenses difficulties should be taken into account. An example would be backing a striker against a poor defense.
So what are those ticks ✅ and crosses ❌ on the “Yesterday’s Results” section?
A history of results.
All of our posted tips are tracked, and the results speak for themselves. A check mark means the bet landed whilst the cross mark means it did not.

In the case a tip is marked wrong, we evaluate it, figure out the cause, and then make changes for the future. Long term winnings stem from having a smooth strategy rather than lose-chasing. This is why every tip that is posted is tracked, so our members know what works and what doesn’t.
