Bet of the day: Bale to bag brace or more in Real’s opening CL clash with Sporting Lisbon

Lee Gormley | September 14, 2016

Coral’s bet of the day

• Gareth Bale has started season in fine form for club and country
• The Welshman bagged a brace in opening La Liga win of term
• He has netted four goals in as many outings to date this campaign
• Real Madrid have never lost to Sporting Lisbon in Europe
• Bale has become Real’s key man after recent Cristiano Ronaldo injuries

Bale to score two or more 4/1

After the welcomed return of European football, the Champions League action continues tonight, and it’s from the tasty match-up between Real Madrid and Sporting Lisbon that Coral’s latest bet of the day comes from.

Zinedine Zidane’s Galacticos will begin the defence of their European crown in a Group F encounter against Portuguese giants Lisbon, and their Welsh wizard Gareth Bale is a tasty 4/1 to dispatch a double anytime during proceedings.

The Wales international ace came into this current campaign on the back of a star showing for his country at Euro 2016, firing in three goals as the Dragons incredible reached the semi-final stage on French soil, losing out to eventual champions Portugal.

With the Los Blancos attacking ace in fine form, read on to find out exactly why it’s worth backing Bale to score two or more goals in this latest outing at the Bernabeu…

In-form Bale to sink Sporting

With Cristiano Ronaldo having sustained injury this past summer and being gradually drafted back into proceedings by Zidane, Bale has become the star man in Madrid, and he showcased his ability to flourish in that role in recent weeks.

The 27-year-old scored the club’s first goal of the season just two minutes in against Real Sociedad, going on to claim a double in that victory, before bagging another brace for his country against Moldova in a 2018 World Cup qualifying clash.

With four goals in as many outings so far this season for club and country, make sure not to miss out on the promising 4/1 price on Bale to score two or more again tonight!
