BAYER LEVERKUSEN V AS ROMA - TIME OF LAST LEVERKUSEN GOAL (SETTLED AT 90)

We start with the football betting action from the midweek UEFA Europa League and it was a historic night in Germany on Thursday as Leverkusen produced yet another incredible comeback and in the process set an outright record of a 49-match unbeaten run, surpassing the achievement of Eusebio's Benfica side in 1965.

Leading 2-0 from the first leg, Leverkusen looked to be forced into extra-time after two penalties from Leandro Paredes put their record into critical jeopardy, but the 'Neverlusen' late-late show again culminated in a last gasp comeback for Xabi Alonso's men.

Considering Leverkusen's knack for scoring late this season, football spread betting punters had joy buying on the Time of Last Leverkusen Goal market. With the opening spread standing at 55 - 58, the final make-up of 90 meant a profit of 32x punters' opening buy stake!

PUNJAB KINGS v ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE - WIDES SQUARED (SETTLED AT 100)

We move on to the IPL Cricket action and an incredible batting display from Virat Kohli with a scintillating knock of 92 off 47 balls, at a strike rate of a massive 195. With the victory, Bangalore are still in the IPL play-off hunt.

Rajat Patidar (55 off 23) and Cameron Green (46 off 27) also played crucial knocks after Punjab Kings' stand-in captain Sam Curran won the toss and opted to bowl first. Chasing that mammoth target, Punjab Kings were bowled out for 181 in 17 overs.

For punters who placed a sell bet on the Wides Squared market at a starting spread of 191 - 216, a settlement of 100 meant a return of 91x their opening wager.

ARTHUR RINDERKNECH v FRANCESCO PASSARO - X-COURTS (SETTLED AT 119)

And finally, we end with the tennis action from the Rome Masters as Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech took on home hope Francesco Passaro in what turned out to be an incredible comeback after several rain delays in the Italian capital.

Passaro has so far had a fairly unheralded start to his young career but took part in the Next-Gen Finals and has shown some promise on clay courts - albeit at the Challenger level - and looked to be down and out as he faced match points at 7-6 5-2.

However, the Italian then managed to stir a comeback and was serving for the second set at 6-5 before a break in play. When they returned, the deciding set went the distance to a tie-break where Passaro faced another match point before finally getting the job done.

For punters with the foresight of a tightly-contested and lengthy match, buying on the X-Courts market at an opening spread of 55 - 60 and a settlement of 119 yielded an impressive return of 59x for successful buy bets.
