For those of you looking to stick on a Monday flutter, we have searched the continent for some of the most attractive European betting markets.
Monday, March 9th
BST 17:00 Kayserispor vs Trabzonspor
Embarking on what has become quite the domestic romp, Trabzonspor are riding a major wave of momentum. Getting March underway with a 4-2 Turkish Cup victory away at Basaksehir, Faith Tekke’s side have won all of their previous three showdowns against Super Lig opposition by an aggregate score of 9-4.
Currently sat in bronze medal position and with the mood around Papara Park at a red-hot high, Monday’s guests are cruising their way towards a lucrative European return.
In fact, despite falling to an action-packed 3-2 loss against historic rivals Fenerbahce on February 14th, Trabzonspor have won each of their other five domestic appearances across all competitions.
Likewise, Tekke’s European chasers have suffered just a sole defeat from any of their last 10 straight outings.
Claiming that empathic 4-0 romp when they welcomed Kayserispor to Papara Park for their reverse Super Lig meeting back in October, the former Alanyaspor boss will be dreaming of a repeat display here.
While Kayserispor might have signed off February with a much-welcomed 1-0 victory against Antalyaspor, it appears that was just a minor boost for the Anatolian Star.
Despite dragging themselves over the finishing line last season as they clung to their Super Lig status, it is no secret that Erling Moe’s men are pencilled in as a standout relegation candidate in 2026.
The former Molde boss has seen his downbeat squad register just a single victory from any of their previous 11 consecutive appearances across all competitions – a rut that stems all the way back to November 29th.
Monday’s hosts have also failed to find any kind of clinical edge in the final third. It should be highlighted, Kayserispor have registered just a sole strike in over 280 minutes of Super Lig action.
Hit with a 4-0 drumming when they met Trabzonspor for their reverse top-flight showdown on October 3rd, Moe’s men will be more than aware that they face another stern examination here.
Betting Tip: Trabzonspor win @ 12/11
19:30 Almeria vs Cultural Leonesa
While Almeria might have suffered play-off heartbreak last season, La Union haven’t shown any signs of a hangover this time around.
Enjoying what has been a stellar Segunda flurry, Rubi’s men currently find themselves sat in bronze medal position and they have their sights firmly set on clinching a famous La Liga return over the next couple of months.
Smelling what is a golden opportunity when they return to Andalusia on Monday night, the former Real Betis boss should find the mood in his camp at a continued high.
Last seen in front of their own supporters clinching a 2-1 win against Cordoba, Almeria have registered 13 points from their previous five Segunda appearances and they are rightfully installed as a standout contender here.
Enjoying what has become their most fruitful spell since back in November, Rubi’s camp have also impressed with their free-scoring performances in the final third. Notching 53 Segunda goals this season, La Union hold the second-best tally in the division.
Although Cultural Leonesa might have only made their iconic Segunda return this season, the Whites are already planning for life back in Spain’s third-tier.
Last seen getting completely blown away on home soil as they slumped to a routine 3-0 drumming at the hands of Las Palmas, Ruben de la Barrera’s side are currently sat five points adrift of safety.
Facing what looks set to be another stern examination when they travel to Andalusia on Monday night, the one-time Deportivo La Coruna boss has not seen his downbeat squad register a single win from any of their previous 11 consecutive appearances across all competitions – a rut that stems all the way back to December 17th.
It should also be highlighted, Cultural Leonesa have lost all of their last three competitive showdowns against Almeria by an aggregate score of 5-2.
Betting Tip: Sergio Arribas to score anytime @ 29/20
20:00 Espanyol vs Real Oviedo
Signing off 2025 in the midst of a sensational five-match La Liga winning run, Espanyol had rightfully received a string of public praise from across the continent.
However, despite getting the New Year underway in the midst of a record-breaking domestic romp, Manolo Gonzalez’s camp have largely come crashing back down to earth over recent times.
Suffering last-gasp heartbreak away at Elche last time out as they eventually had to settle for a 2-2 stalemate, the Parakeets have also seen their European dreams take a real blow.
In fact, Espanyol have now failed to win any of their previous nine consecutive La Liga appearances (six defeats, three draws). With that rut stemming all the way back to December 22nd, Monday’s hosts will have some real pressure on their shoulders here.
It should also be highlighted, including a 2-1 loss against Alaves on January 30th, Gonzalez’s side have shipped a pair of goals in all of their last four straight La Liga showdowns in Catalonia.
While Real Oviedo might have only made their iconic La Liga return this season, Guillermo Almada’s men are already planning for life back in Spain’s second-tier.
Sat rock-bottom of the table and only putting 17 points on the board from their 17 La Liga appearances this season, the Blues have continued to show some glaring issues at both ends of the pitch.
Last seen getting March underway with a routine 3-0 drumming away at Rayo Vallecano, the Asturias-based outfit have recorded just a sole win across any competition since the end of September.
The La Liga strugglers should also be concerned by their mos recent showdown against Monday’s opponents. Oviedo slumped to a toothless 2-0 loss when they welcomed Espanyol to the Estadio Carlos Tartiere for their reverse La Liga showdown on October 17th.
Including another 3-0 defeat against reigning Spanish champions Barcelona on January 25th, Oviedo have shipped 29 goals on their travels so far this season.
