Maccabi Tel Aviv v Stoke City Betting: Potters well equipped for away win

After kicking their season off in bright fashion Stoke City have gone off the boil a bit over the past couple of weeks, losing their last three games in all competitions. They will be looking to bounce back against a Maccabi Tel Aviv they beat at home in the Europa League 3-0 as recently as a fortnight ago. Bearing that result in mind, the 13/8 that StanJames.com are offering about Stoke looks a bit big, and for several reasons.

Stoke’s three recent losses are possibly not as bad as they might first appear. If Stoke had lost against three lowly teams then it might be panic stations for Tony Pulis and his men, but the fact is Stoke’s losses came against a resurgent Arsenal, high-flying Newcastle, and an in-form Liverpool. Stoke were long odds-on when they played Maccabi Tel Aviv just four matches ago, so is there any reason to believe the Israeli team can overturn a three goal deficit?

Maccabi Tel Aviv are one the most successful club in Israeli football history, but they have not won their domestic league since 2003. In their favour against Stoke is that they have yet to meet with defeat at home in any competition so far this season. Maccabi Tel Aviv are the same price with StanJames.com as Stoke – odds of 13/8 - to win the match. Against Maccabi Tel Aviv, though, is the knowledge that Stoke will qualify for the next stage of the Europa League should they win this match.

Stoke are unbeaten in the Europa League this season, too, winning an excellent six times, and giving them added incentive to leave Israel with a positive result.

The formbook surely suggests a Stoke win is the value bet.
