24 October 2009
Wolverhampton (3.6) Draw (3.4) Aston Villa (2.2)
A local derby but not as much passion as in the Wolves/ West Brom or Villa/ Birmingham ones. Wolves come to this off 2 losses and last week they got a credible point against Everton. Villa look like they have found form again since losing to Blackburn. The Chelsea result last week was well deserved. They actually sit 2nd behind Man U in the current form table and 6th overall. I can't really believe the odds here. Any of the top 4 and you'd be getting maybe 1,4 but you get 2.2 at bet365 for this in form Villa side.
Birmingham (2.9) Draw (3.4) Sunderland (2.6)
Birmingham are still injury hit. Last week, they ruined my Arsenal to nil bet but still went down 3-1 in the end. Only 1 win in their last 6 and that was against Hull City. Sunderland had a bit of luck with a beach ball last weekend but out played Liverpool and deserved to win. Previously, they were minutes from beating Man U at Old Trafford. This is a strong Sunderland side in good form. Its got to be the away win again. Its 2.6 at .
Burnley (2.5) Draw (3.4) Wigan (3)
Unlucky for Burnley last week. They came back strong in the second half and maybe could have drawn if they scored their second goal with more time left on the clock. Burnley are a true Jekyll and Hyde team home and away. Their record reads home, played 4, won 4. Away, played 5, lost 5. Wigan are a hot and cold side. A nice draw against Man City last week at home but the game before that a loss to Hull away. I suppose I am going to have to go with the home win here. 2.5 is a nice price at Skybet for the Burnley win.
Hull (2.63) Draw (3.4) Portsmouth (2.9)
Dire performances from Hull recently. They were rightly beat 2-0 at Fulham. I still can't for the life of me work out how Hull managed to beat Wigan. Portsmouth, didn't get anything from the Spurs visit but that was expected. Second half when Defoe was sent off they had a realistic chance of actually getting something though. Previously, they got their first win of the season against Wolves. I am going with Portsmouth here. Their team is better and if they are going to survive which I think they will, they will win games like this. Its 2,9 at Totesport
Tottenham (1.5) Draw (4.3) Stoke (8.5)
Spurs were quite lucky to hang on against Portsmouth. They did have Defoe sent off for a stupid stamp though. He will be missing this game but Spurs have enough quality strikers to fill in the gap. Stoke won last time out against West Ham. They've drawn their last 3 away games too. There could be some value in the draw but for me this is a Spurs win. Price is 1.5 at Boylesport
Chelsea (1.2) Draw (6.5) Blackburn (19)
Chelsea won 4-0 midweek against Atletico Madrid. Looks like a demolition but in reality, it was even first half and Atletico just gave up second half. I'm not totally convinced that you should be backing Chelsea at 1.2. Blackburn have been scoring recently. 3-2 against Burnley, 2-1 against Villa and losing 6-2 to Arsenal. Sportingbet have both teams to score at 2.4. Much better value than 1.2 on the home win. Chelsea look vulnerable at set pieces.
25 October 2009
Bolton (2.8) Draw (3.4) Everton (2.7)
An extremely tricky fixture this one. Bolton came back strong against Man U last week. Game before that was a good 2-2 draw against Spurs. 2 draws on the bounce for Everton in the league but a 5-0 thrashing at Benfica tonight. Good teams usually pick themselves up after a thrashing like that though. 1X for me but not one I am going to bet on.
Liverpool (3) Draw (3.3) Manchester United (2.5)
Liverpool are on a terrible run of form. Gerrard and Torres are injury doubts for this game. Last season they beat Man U without Gerrard and Torres but this team their overall team is weaker. Man U still riding their luck. Just doing just enough to win. This time the odds are good on Man U. I suppose this takes in to account they have had a long journey to Moscow. Very rare you get 3.0 for Liverpool at home but I don't see them winning. Man U for me, 2.5 generally available. Check out our Bookie Bonus page
Manchester City (1.45) Draw (4.5) Fulham (8.5)
Two draws on the bounce for City so they really need to win this. They probably would have beat Wigan if they had kept 11 men on the pitch. Fulham have had a hard European night against Roma, letting in a late goal to draw 1-1. They always seem weaker after a European game. This is an exact replay of the Carling Cup game earlier in the year when a second string Fulham team took City to extra time. A very costly night for punters. I do think this time City will win though. 1.45 at
West Ham (7) Draw (4.3) Arsenal (1.53)
Terrible run of results for West Ham. That first day of the season win seems so long ago. I really can't make a case for West Ham here. Arsenal will be too strong here. I do actually think there is some value in this 1.53 at Skybet. Opposing West Ham has been profitable this season and I can't see it changing this weekend.
