Football Betting Tipsby Ben, last updated 2010-09-02 22:15:12International qualifiers aren’t really a thing I get excited about. I’d much prefer a weekend of Premiership action. Anyway, UEFA have the qualifiers for the Euro 2012 this weekend, strangely with most games on the Friday night. Euro 2012 QualifiersEngland (1.33) Draw (5.0) Bulgaria (13.0) On paper this looks like a formality for England. I’m not too sure. Lots of changes in the England side. Its needed as they were shocking at the World Cup and in the last game only a brilliant few minutes from Gerrard saved them from embarrassment. Its pretty hard to see who Capello is going to turn this England team around. The ‘golden generation’ is old now and there aren’t obvious successors. I still think Rooney is well over rated and its hard to see where the England goals are going to come from. Maybe Gerrard can step up again. No Berbatov for Bulgaria and in current form that’s a loss. In the past he has been a liability for them though. The didn’t do too badly last World Cup qualifying campaign. They came 3rd after Italy and the Republic of Ireland. They only lost 2 game in all. It could be argued they were in a very weak group though as Italy did worse than England in the World Cup and Ireland didn’t manage to beat France to get to South Africa. The last time I bet on England they cost me quite a bit losing to Germany. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. I’ll not be backing them this time. 1.3 is just way too short. I suppose that’s all you can expect for England against a smaller European side but it doesn’t appeal me to at all. The draw is probably the best option for value punters but I’ll skip this game. Slovenia (1.62) Draw (3.75) N Ireland (6.5) We know a bit Slovenia as they were the only team England managed to beat in the World Cup. It was 1-0 and that was enough to knock Slovenia out. They played a decent enough game though. Recall, they did knock Russia out to get to the World Cup. In the last friendly game they beat Australia 2-0. Northern Ireland are having problems scoring. No goal in the last 7 games. They are really a class below Slovenia in terms of world football. N Ireland can get results at home but away from home, like most mid-ability sides, struggle. 1.62 seems a fair price to me. I do prefer the win to nil market on this though. Its 2.4 at Totesport. More than double the payback for more or less the same bet in my opinion. ← 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 → |
