Weekend Football betting tipsby Ben, last updated 2009-01-02 00:37:07FA Cup betting.2 January 2009 20:00 Tottenham (1.83) Draw (3.5) Wigan (4.5) The honeymoon period for Spurs is over. Can't see Spurs are odds on for this. Spurs are still in a relegation battle. Wigan are a decent side (no Heskey though) and have won their last 3 games. I think Bruce will be well up for this. Looking at the price, I have to back Wigan. Price is 4.5 at Paddypower. 3 January 2009 13:00 Hartlepool (4.3) Draw (3.5) Stoke (2) Only 1 away win this season for Stoke. That was in the Carling Cup against Cheltenham. Going to back them for a win though. They are the type of premiership team that won't be phased by the lower division Hartlepool side. Best price is even money at bet365 who own Stoke. I guess they'll be gutted if this comes in from a betting perspective but their team will be through to the next round. 15:00 Arsenal (1.22) Draw (7) Plymouth (17) Arsenal should walk this but can't back them 1.22. Too many let downs this season. No Bet. 15:00 Chelsea (1.11) Draw (9) Southend (29) I cannot set an upset here. Odds are very low though. Maybe one for the combos. Can't bet at 1.11. Win to nil odds is 1.53 at Paddypower. 15:00 Hull (2.4) Draw (3.4) Newcastle (2.9) Heart ache for Hull the other day against Villa. So unlucky to concede in the 88th minute. Newcastle got battered by Liverpool last time out. No strong opinion on this one but looking at the prices, the draw is the best price and just as likely a home or away win. Price is 3.4 at bet365 15:00 Macclesfield (11) Draw (5.5) Everton (1.36) Away banker. Macclesfield are a mid table league 2 side. Price is low but I think I have found value bet of the weekend. Everton have kept 5 clean sheets out of 6 in their last premiership games. So when I checked the prices for win to nil, I am was surprised that bluesquare are offering 2.2 for Everton to win to nil. I was expecting something more like the 1.73 offered by Skybet. 15:00 Manchester City (1.36) Draw (5) Nottingham F (10) Home win. Only danger is that Forest have a new manager. Can't see them troubling Man City though. Price is 1.36 at Paddypower. If he plays Robinho will surely get a goal. Price is evens at for him to score anytime. 15:00 Middlesbrough (1.2) Draw (8.5) Barrow (17) Unpredictable Boro. Cannot back them at 1.2. I prefer backing them at big odds. No bet. 15:00 Portsmouth (1.73) Draw (3.75) Bristol C (6.5) Potential upset here. With the transfer window open I can see a few Pompey players not wanting to be cup tied and getting injured before kick off. City have been on a little run beating Watford and Palace. Big price (6.5) for Bristol City at Paddypower. 15:00 Sheffield W (3.5) Draw (3.4) Fulham (2.25) 4, 0-0 draw on the road for Fulham. Wednesday don't concede very much at home. A highly speculative bet but I think no goal scorer at 10.0 at Sportingbet is worth a go. 15:00 Sunderland (2.3) Draw (3.4) Bolton (3.25) Tricky one this. In the league, this fixture ended 1-4. Sunderland have improved and Bolton have come off the boil a bit. No bet. 15:00 West Brom (1.62) Draw (3.8) Peterborough (7) Another upset maybe. West Brom are in a relegation battle. Maybe they don't want a cup run. are offering 7.0 on the away win. 15:00 West Ham (1.53) Draw (4) Barnsley (8) Barnsley were last years hero (or villains depending on how you look at things). Maybe another upset here. 17:25 Preston (8) Draw (4.5) Liverpool (1.53) Liverpool should win this on paper. Can't trust Benitez though. They have a good chance of winning the league this year and going out of the cup may be a blessing. Preston are no mugs and could well make it in to the Premiership next season. Price is 8.0 at 4 January 2009 13:30 Gillingham (9.0) Draw (4.5) Aston Villa (1.4) Villa have bad form in the FA Cup due to the fact that they always seem to get Man U. Villa were lucky to beat Hull the other day. I think their priority is the league. A big price on the home win here. Really need to see the team sheet but at the moment 9.0 at Ladbrokes for the home win is tempting. 16:00 Southampton (13) Draw (5.5) Manchester United (1.3) Southampton look like they are going down this year. Man U should win comfortably. Saying that, they should have beat Stoke and Boro comfortably. The win to nil odds is 1.91 at Paddypower. 5 January 2009 20:00 Blyth Spartans (15) Draw (8) Blackburn (1.23) Away win but have no interest at these prices. One for the combos. ← Prev 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 188 189 190 191 192 193 194 195 196 197 198 199 200 201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 211 212 213 214 215 216 217 218 219 220 221 222 223 224 225 226 227 228 229 230 231 232 233 234 235 236 237 238 239 240 241 242 243 244 245 246 247 248 249 250 251 252 253 254 255 256 257 258 259 260 261 262 263 264 265 266 267 268 269 270 271 272 273 274 275 276 277 278 279 280 281 282 283 284 285 286 287 288 289 290 291 292 293 294 295 296 297 298 299 300 301 302 303 304 305 306 307 308 309 310 311 312 313 314 315 316 317 318 319 320 321 322 323 324 325 326 327 328 329 330 331 332 333 334 335 336 337 338 339 340 341 342 343 344 345 346 347 348 349 350 351 352 353 354 355 356 357 358 359 360 361 362 363 364 365 366 367 368 369 370 371 372 373 374 375 376 377 378 379 380 381 382 383 384 385 386 387 388 389 390 391 392 393 394 395 396 397 398 399 400 401 402 403 404 405 406 407 408 409 410 411 412 413 414 415 416 Next → |
