FERNANDO TORRES FAVOURED TO OPEN THE SCORING IN LIVERPOOL VS STEAUA BUCHAREST

Liverpool take on one of Hungary's top sides today in Europa League action and it is clear to pretty much everybody that something is amiss at Anfield. Roy Hodgson is dampening expectations and declaring that the club needs new owners if they are going to win trophies going forward. 
They are the distinct favourites in today's contest and you can lock in a 2/5 price on the outright victory with Bet365. Steaua Bucharest's odds to beat Liverpool are trading at a 15/2 price tag while the draw is available to be backed at 10/3. 
Fernando Torres has looked one of the main reasons why Liverpool are struggling and it just doesn't look like the Spanish striker can be bothered these days. Bet365 are confident that he turns it all around in this fixture and he is odds-on to score anytime, with an 8/13 price, while a listing of 12/5 is available for anybody who wants to back him to score first. 
Torres' odds to score first are distinctly sharper than anybody else in the fixture and the closest available option looks to be David Ngog, who is priced at 11/10 anytime and 4/1 first or last. 
Joe Cole is supposed to be available for this one and will likely return following a European ban. Joe Cole is priced at 8/5 to score at any point in the match and he's at 11/2 to score first or last. Hopefully he's not taking penalties today. 
Steven Gerrard is priced identically to Joe Cole here and that looks to be a real vote of confidence from the bookmakers towards the new signing. 
Fernando Torres' odds to grab two goals or more are trading at 13/5 with Bet365 while his odds to score a hat-trick against Bucharest are trading at a 10/1 price.
Torres to score first and Liverpool to win is trading at a very solid 12/5 and you can also lock in a price of 6/1 on Steven Gerrard to score first and Liverpool to win the match.
