Man C v Hamburg handicap betting: are these good odds?

[Nottseagull]

I 'm going to join Jaxx https://www.jaxx.com/agp/WebObjects/JXCApp.woa/wa?navigateTo=%2FSportsbet%2FOverview&partnerId=4014&partnerID=4014&dispatched=1239842593455&locale=en_GB_JAXX&PID=1699685&AID=10536831&SID=344018x36185057#
and for my first bet I'm considering Manchester City to beat Hamburg at home, but they are odds-on. I think City will go all out for goals tonight, and could well get a 2-goal victory. On the handicap list with a goal start for Hamburg, City are 49-20 against winning. Do you think this is a good bet?

Not if you think they'll get a 2 goal victory
That sounds as if it's for them winning the match, rather than going through. You have to becareful with that one.

You are confused, City are 9-10 to win the match but 49-20 to win by at least two goals, by virtue of the handicap list that gives Hamburg a goal start. The "going through" odds are irrelevant.

I've got £10 on City to win 2 - 0 @ 7/1

Is that because you think they are particularly good odds? This scoreline is 13-2 with Jaxx, but I am still tempted.
