LIONEL MESSI VS SAMUEL ETO’O IN THE BATTLE OF THE NOU CAMP
It’s going to be a showdown of superstar goalscorers today as we see Barcelona vs Inter Milan kicking off at 19:45 in just a few hours. Needless to say, all eyes are going to be on Lionel Messi for this one and he is considered the heavy favourite to score at any point in this match. He also boasts one of the shortest prices on a hat-trick I’ve ever seen.
The Argentine Wonderkid Messi is listed by William Hill at 4/7 anytime and 5/2 to score first or last. He’s a slim 3/1 to get 2 goals or more and 12/1 to get a hat-trick against Inter. This is basically what Barcelona need- it would be very hard to deal with an in-form Messi and you know that if he can put three past Inter then the rest of the Catalan side will chip in with a few goals. The more goals there are in this match- the better it is for Barcelona.
I think that Samuel Eto’o is a man on a mission and will be looking to make a big statement on his return to Camp Nou. The former African Footballer of the year trades at 9/4 to score anytime and 15/2 to score first or last. He is 14/1 to score two or more and a massive 50/1 to score a shock hat-trick. What a moment that would be!
There’s a few other interesting bets going on and you can back Messi or Eto’o to score first (together) at 6/4. You can also take Messi and Eto’o to both score at any time for a very solid 9/2 price with William Hill. There are all sorts of interesting anytime goalscorer pairings available for this big fixture.
You can back Lionel Messi to score anytime and Barcelona to win at a 5/6 price. Messi to score first and Barcelona to win trades at 16/5. Samuel Eto’o to score anytime and Inter to win pays out at 6/1 while Eto’o to score first and Milan to win (not out of the question) pays out at a hefty 18/1.
