The dark cloud of the European Super League is hanging over the world of soccer right now with so many fans angry, sad and wondering what the world of soccer is going to look like in the near future. Despite all of that, we have a flurry of mid-week fixtures in the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A and La Liga.

The European soccer calendar is so congested at the moment with Champions League, Europa League and mid-week domestic matches taking place next week, managers might be rotating their squads to rest some players. It would probably be a good idea to wait until starting lineups come out an hour before kickoff before placing a wager.

You can use these projections to identify betting value on current lines, plus follow me in The Action Network App to see any bets I make throughout the week.
