Friendly picks from friendly club games: Accumulator Tip for July 26

European clubs are already beginning to intensify their preparation for the new season. With this, I bring some of the best games scheduled for Friday, with Nurnberg set to host Juventus, RW Essen will lock horns with Bundesliga champions Leverkusen, and Leicester will entertain Palermo. Below are analyses of these games and acca banker odds.

Nurnberg vs Juventus

Juventus will kickstart their preseason friendlies against Nurnberg in Germany. We might not see players like Federico Chiesa, who was said to have reported to J Medical to undergo fitness tests and will be granted rest. With the squad likely to feature prospects, it will be too risky to bet on Juventus winning. Instead, I will go with both sides, finding the net and seeing 3+ goals. Despite not having a good season last season, Nurnberg have scored in each of their previous eight games. They defeated Hersbruck 13-0 in one of their recent clashes and got a 2-1 win in their last game against Blackburn.

RW Essen vs Leverkusen

Bundesliga champions will start their preseason clash against third-division side RW Essen. RW Essen finished last season 7th in their division, and they already appear to have nothing to fight Leverkusen. With most of Leverkusen’s players back in camp, I expect them to run riot on RWE. It should be noted that Leverkusen lost just one match in the whole of last season.

Leicester vs Palermo

After being crowned English Championship champions last season, Leicester have won all their two preseason clashes. First, they got a 2-1 win over Villarreal before another 2-1 win over Shrewsbury. On the other hand, Palermo missed out on a chance of getting promoted into Serie A after losing 3-1 on aggregate to Venezia in the semifinal of the playoffs. However, with the risk of staking on any side getting a win in a clash like this, I will opt for both sides to score and 3+ goals.
