I'd stay away from friendlies if I were you. Finish and Norwegian soccer on the other hand, some money to be made on that.

The issue is that the lines are made based on the assumption that each team would field its strongest squad. But big teams tend to use friendlies to assess their lesser known players. So they often field below-strength teams. It's not advisable to bet in friendlies.
