Last week I came very close, correctly tipping 4 out 5, with Dinamo Zagreb’s failure to beat Gorica in the Croatian top-flight putting me out of my 11/1 multiple. But as the old saying goes, if at first you don't succeed, try again. Follow me this week as I take a look at the less popular leagues in Europe and pick out a five-leg multiple bet.
HNK Rijeka 11/20
Draw 3/1
HNK Gorica 17/4
(18:55)

HNK Gorica 17/4

Zenit 2/11

Krylia Sovetov 13/1
(19:30)
In Russia's Premier Liga, it’s top versus bottom as table-toppers Zenit entertain bottom side Krylia Sovetov. In Zenit’s last two games, they beat Ural 7-1 and CSKA Moscow 4-0. You can include the champions on the (-1) Handicap at 11/20.

Saturday 27 June
I’ll definitely be including Shakhter in my bets this weekend. They’re second in the Belarusian Premier League, four points behind table-toppers BATE, and should win comfortably against a Minsk side that has lost three on the trot. Take them on the (-1) Handicap at 21/20.
BATE Borisov 13/20
Minsk 6/1
Draw 32/10
Shakhter 4/10

Shakhter 4/10

BATE Borisov 13/20
Draw 26/10
Dinamo Minsk 4/1
(19:30)
Staying in the Belarusian Premier League and BATE Borisov are once again a top bet this weekend. They’re in great form – unbeaten in 12 league games with nine wins and in that hot streak was a 3-0 victory over Dinamo Minsk in November. They also beat Minsk twice in the Belarusian Cup to win 5-3 on aggregate. Jump on the home win at 13/20 and thank me later.

Dinamo Zagreb 7/10
Draw 26/10
NK Osijek 38/10
(20:00)
Now, I know Dinamo Zagreb let me down last week and I probably shouldn’t look at them, but the 7/10 looks too good to pass up, especially as the champions elect are at home where they’re unbeaten with 14 wins from 15 games. Their opponents Osijek are a good side, but aren’t the best travellers.
