The Friendlies Continue To Play Out In Surprises: Accumulator Tip for July 03

Club Friendlies shows us how important it is to test the waters before league activities resume full force. Today’s accumulator coverage spans pre-season games across various leagues as Greek side Panathinaikos test the pitch against Cypriot’s Pafos. Austria Wien (Vienna) would also shoot blanks against Romanian side Sepsi OSK as Polish side Jablonec plays Israel’s Osijek.

If anything is proven from the recent Club friendlies, these two sides are well-prepared for their respective league seasons. With their last meeting in 2022 ending in a placid 2-2 stalemate with neither side budging, the opportunity for either side to prove dominance rears its head again.

Panathinaikos played SV Union Haus last week in their first Club friendly, slapping them to a 14-0 victory. On the flip side, Pafos has relished their first three friendly games against Uion Craiova (2-1), IlIrijia 1911 (5-0), and Legis (1-0).

We expect goals from this game, with both sides registering on the scoresheet at full-time.

Austrian Bundesliga clashes with Romanian Superliga as Vienna plays Sepsi. The two sides have played their friendlies, neither registering victories nor defeats, sustaining gridlocks with hopes of exerting a win from their second test.

Austria Wien played DAC 1904 last week to a full-time draw in an uneventful game that saw neither side push for victory despite numerous goal attempts. Conversely, Sepsi OFK pushed their luck in a home game against Unirea 04 Slobozia in a 1-1 stalemate. Their second friendly exhibition saw them on the road against Ferencvarosi, where fur goals could only afford them a subsequent draw in the 4-4 encounter.

For the two sides, this will be the first time they will battle it out on the pitch, and as such, we expect the visiting side to instigate scoring, with Austrian Wien sure to contain the blowback.

The Czech Super League lends a friendly hand toward the Croatian Football League as Jablonec plays Osijek. In a few words, Osijeki has been the more fortunate side, playing the last five domestic games with one loss while winning four. However, their recent friendly match against HNK Bilje ended in a 13-0 victory. Jablonechas played three games here, with a win, a loss, and a stalemate concluding their recent form- unpredictable. Not much is expected to augur here as there is a wide disparity between the quality of both squads. Our bet is a landslide win for the Croatian side.
