Player assist bet of the day

RB Leipzig v Rangers BT Sport 2, 8pm Thursday

Leipzig have plenty of attacking threats for Rangers to worry about and flying wing-back Angelino is a tempting 3-1 with Paddy Power to claim an assist. He has set up four goals in eight starts in the Champions League and Europa League this term as well as recording five assists in the Bundesliga.
