Premiership Weekend Betting tips
15th - 16th October 2011
15th October 2011Liverpool (3.1) Draw (3.3) Manchester United (2.62)
Liverpool captain Gerrard looks like he will start this game. That will be a welcome boost for Liverpool who are looking their 3rd win on the bounce. They got a little help from the referee when Everton got a man sent off. Carroll got his first league goal and Suarez scored late on to make sure of the win. After a few games of the season I came up with a fool proof betting system - just back Manchester United every game. I am not too sure now. They were lucky to beat Norwich and before then lucky to get a point to Stoke. I don't rate Rooney as much as everyone else does. All eyes will be on him after the European antics. Its a tricky one to call this. If United play at their best, they should win but I can't be sure that they will turn up. Liverpool have been playing good football recently and do up their game when United come to town. I am thinking goals in this game. Pre-match, you can get 1.91 at bluesquare for over 2.5 goals. I think I'll have that bet in running though. After 10 minutes the price for overs is usually better than evens and the early kick offs do sometimes take a while to get going. As a fun bet, I am going to have Rooney to be sent off too at 33/1 at VC Bet.
Manchester City (1.36) Draw (5) Aston Villa (10.5)
City beat Blackburn 4-0 in the last round. Another win and another clean sheet for them. At the movement they look unstoppable. We'll have to wait until the big game next week to see if Manchester United can stop them. The only downer on City is that they had many players, playing in the European qualifiers and won't be as well rested as Villa. Amazingly, Villa are still unbeaten this season. Most of their games have ended in draws though. Only 2 wins in all that and both of those at home. They haven't played any of the big teams yet though. Agbonlahor and Bent do look like they have gelled and scored a goal each against Wigan last round. They could cause City some problems but I think they class of City will shine through eventually. 1.36 looks a bit on the low side but thats all you'd get if this was Chelsea or United so 1.36 is about fair. It's 1.36 at most Bookmakers

Norwich (2.25) Draw (3.3) Swansea City (3.5)
Norwich were impressive at Old Trafford last round. They could have won that if they took their chances. Not many teams can say that. They were impressive in the game before that beating Sunderland 2-1 and before then beating Bolton 2-1 at the Reebok. I am not sure about this Swansea side. Dyer, Sinclair and Graham aren't strikers that would scare any defense. They have won 2 games, both at home but when the opposition wasn't in top form. Even though they are on equal points and equal goal difference I have been much more impressed with Norwich overall. I'll give them the edge here as they are the home side too. Norwich are 2.25 at Totesport.
Chelsea (1.4) Draw (5) Everton (11)
Chelsea look like they have found their scoring boots. 4-1 and 5-1 in their last 2 games. Torres is still suspended. Sturridge, Drogba and Mata are a formidable strike for though. Lampard managed to get a hattrick last game so may have rediscovered his form of 3 years ago. Everton were unlucky to get Rodwell sent off against Liverpool and went on to lose that game 2-0. That red card was rescinded so he'll be able to start this game. Cahill is a doubt. I guess if he doesn't play, then the odds for Chelsea will drop significantly. I still wonder how that Everton team pick up points. Its Chelsea all day long for me here. 1.4 at William Hill. I would also be tempted with 3 or more goals at 1.7 at bet365. Chelsea haven't kept a clean sheet since the first day of the season.
16th October 2011
Arsenal (1.5) Draw (4.5) Sunderland (8.5)
Who would have thought that Arsenal would be just 1 point ahead of their opponents at this stage of the season. They sit in 15th on 7 points. To be fair they looked pretty good against Spurs last round and it really could have gone either way. Van Persie is class player but he's been on international duty, playing twice for Holland in the last week. Maybe some tiredness there. Sunderland are club that look like they will be fighting it out at the bottom. They won't have Bendtner for this game due to not being able to play for his parent club. Sessegnon doesn't really cut it as a striker so its hard to see where Sunderland's goals are going to come from. Last season they did manage a 0-0 draw with them though. On current form, I can't be having Arsenal as such heavy favourites against anyone. They may win this but until they show some consistent form the 1.5 on the home win is a joke. Sunderland +1 on the Asian Handicap is 2.15 at VC Bet. (With the Asian Handicap +1, you get your money back if its a handicap draw, ie Arsenal win by 1 goal exactly).
Newcastle (3.1) Draw (3.4) Tottenham (2.5)
Another win for Newcastle last round. From looking like an outside relegation candidate, they are in that 4th Champions League spot. They can't possibly keep this up all season though. You can't fault their hard work or the fact they have found and goal scorer in Ba. Spurs beat arch rivals Arsenal last round. It was a pretty even game and it was a later wonder strike from Walker that settled it 2-1. You can't argue with the fact they have won their last 4 in a row though and look like strong contenders for that 4th place. For this game, Adebayor and Lennon are doubts. I am not going to be opposing Newcastle while they are on this fantastic unbeaten run. Away from home, Spurs have only beat Wigan and Wolves this season who are not exactly stellar opposition. This will be a big test for Spurs. I will opt for the draw here. It does look like one of those 1-1 games. Its 3.4 at VC Bet. Get £25 free when you sign up.
