Fulham v Liverpool

Fulham seem to be recovering their home form so draw no bet to win against Liverpool today. Straight win is 4.0 but DNB seems value at 2.75.

Friday 30 October 2009

Scunthorpe v Swansea

Scunthorpe look overpriced at 2.6 to beat Swansea in The Championship on Saturday.

Thursday 29 October 2009

Peterborough v Barnsley

Barnsley to win at Peterborough on Saturday at a value 3.5 bet. Posh are flaky at home, Barnsley had been on a mini-run of form before meeting Forest and Bristol City.

Wednesday 28 October 2009

Carling Cup - Arsenal v Liverpool

Generally I try and avoid the Carling Cup cos team selection is unpredictable but I reckon Arsenal are value at 2.1 to beat Liverpool tonight. Depending on the starting line-ups of course!

[Bet was placed at 9:00. Odds of 1.91 avail now - 18:30]

Tuesday 27 October 2009

Bristol Rovers v Leeds United

Just about worth going on the skimpy value of 2.3 on offer for Leeds to win away at Bristol Rovers in League One tonight.

Monday 26 October 2009

Reading v Leicester

Leicester to win away at hapless Reading in the Championship tonight @ 2.87.

Sunday 25 October 2009

Real Valladolid v Deportivo La Coruna

Real Valladolid to get beaten at home by Deportivo La Coruna in La Liga @ 2.75

Saturday 24 October 2009

Burnley v Wigan

Burnley won last 3 home plus Wigan lost last 3 away = Burnley home win. Odds of 2.5 = value.

Friday 23 October 2009

Sheffield United v Cardiff

A value 2.87 on Cardiff to win away at Sheffield United tomorrow in the Championship.

Thursday 22 October 2009

Hull v Portsmouth

Portsmouth to win away at Hull in the Premier League on Saturday at value odds of 2.8 with bet365.

Wednesday 21 October 2009

Tuesday 20 October 2009

Notts Forest v Barnsley

The two form teams of the Championship meet but surely Barnsley shouldn't be priced as long as 4.75. I go for the draw no bet (DNB) on Barnsley at 3.4 w/ bet365

Monday 19 October 2009

Blackpool v Sheff Utd

On-form Blackpool to beat Sheffield Utd @ 2.4 w/ bet365. Value written all over it. Now cursed...

Sunday 18 October 2009

La Liga - Deportivo Xerex v Villarreal

Bottom v second bottom in La Liga & I go with home team Xerez to score a second goal this season and beat Villarreal @ 2.75 DNB (Draw No Bet).

Saturday 17 October 2009

Sheffield Wednesday v Coventry City

Draw no bet on Coventry to beat Sheff Weds at 2.62 - I can see plenty of goals in this one, and the away team could shade it.

Friday 16 October 2009

Aston Villa v Chelsea

Villa to win with draw no bet v Chelsea at a great value 3.03

[Update 17/10/09 - bet placed at an even better value 3.75]

Thursday 15 October 2009

Portsmouth v Tottenham

Pompey surely overpriced @ 4.6 to beat Spurs. I'm going draw no bet on the home win for a value 3.3

Wednesday 14 October 2009

World Cup Qualifying Uruguay Argentina

Uruguay to win a repeat match of the first ever World Cup Final against Argentina. Good home form equals value @ 2.4

Tuesday 13 October 2009

Monday 12 October 2009

Tranmere v Stockport

Tranmere to emerge victorious from the Barnes McAteer reign at home to Stockport @ 2.37

Sunday 11 October 2009

Snooker Grand Prix Final - Robertson v Ding

Ding Junhui @ 1.91 to beat Neil Robertson in the Snooker Grand Prix Final in Glasgow.

Saturday 10 October 2009

World Cup Qualifier Group 3 Czech Republic v Poland

Value odds of 6.5 on Poland in a must-win game (for both sides) in Prague against the Czech Republic. This would keep their slim chances of second place alive in a congested group.

Friday 9 October 2009

World Cup Qualifier Group 2 Greece v Latvia

Still open in group 2 of the World Cup Euro qualifying, and with all to play for Latvia have a chance of beating Greece away. More than the odds of 8.0 anyway.

[Edit 09 Oct 09 Bet actually placed at improved odds of 10.0]

Thursday 8 October 2009

World Cup Qualifier Group 6 Ukraine v England

Ukraine need to win. England don't. I'm gonna back the draw at a value 3.6. Given that England probably won't lose, I am avoiding the tempting 2.7 for Ukraine.

Wednesday 7 October 2009

English Premier League Outright Winners

Man City to win the Premier League at 11.0 in what looks like being a topsy turvy season. Given that they could easily be reinforcing their squad come January, as long as they stay in touch with the leaders until then they are in with a chance.

Tuesday 6 October 2009

Premier League Relegation

West Ham to be relegated from the Premier League this season. 7.5 with willhill.

[Edit 8 Oct 09 - The theory is that there are all sorts of rumours about West Ham's finances, their current form and league position is not great, their main striker is Carlton Cole, and other teams such as Portsmouth are starting to look up. It all depends how many worse teams there are, obviously.]

Monday 5 October 2009

Aston Villa v Man City

After another bet win yesterday, today I'll go with the marginal value on offer at 2.5 for Man City to win at Villa.

Sunday 4 October 2009

Sevilla v Real Madrid

Sevilla home win v Real Madrid @ 3.4, was also tempted by Fulham at West Ham (3.4) but la liga bet just shades it.

Saturday 3 October 2009

Peterborough v Notts Forest

I fancy on-form Forest to win at Peterboro @ 2.8 is a good value bet.

Friday 2 October 2009

Wolves v Portsmouth

Despite their financial problems and results Portsmouth have been improving, and could beat Wolves away. Certainly value at 3.50 odds.

Thursday 1 October 2009

Cricket ICC Champions Trophy Outright Winners

Already on Australia, so let's hedge, England are value at 5.00 for ICC Cricket outright winners.
