Football Betting Tipsby Simon, last updated 2010-02-26 02:22:03Premiership Betting Tips - 27th - 28th February 201027 February 2010 Chelsea (1.5) Draw (4.8) Manchester City (8) Top of the league Chelsea can go 4 points clear with a win here. Midweek, they lost to Inter Milan. They dominated but Inter scored with their only 2 meaningful attacks of the game. Chelsea have a strong home record with only 1 draw and the rest wins. City seem to have gone off the boil with no Tevez. They drew midweek with Stoke in the FA Cup replay and eventually lost 3-1 in extra time. If this game was earlier in the season I would be tempted with a Man City win. As it is, I can't see past a Chelsea win now. City beat Chelsea at Eastlands earlier in the season. Time for some revenge I think. Its 1.5 at Boylesport Birmingham (2) Draw (3.4) Wigan (4.5) Birmingham's European push probably ended last weekend with the defeat to Fulham. They were actually winning at half time but two second half Fulham goals meant that Birmingham have only take 4 points from their last 5 games. Recent home form is still pretty good though. Wigan are sliding fast. They were unlucky with the first goal conceded against Spurs last week. Defoe was miles offside. It was pretty even until then and the 3-0 scoreline was flattering to Spurs. Still, it doesn't change the fact that Wigan haven't won a game in 6. I back Birmingham. Its even money at Bolton (2) Draw (3.4) Wolverhampton (4.3) Only one point seperates these sides. Bolton have had a a bad time since Owen Coyle came to manage. They have played 8 and the record reads 1-2-5. Some tough fixtures in there but the overall lack of goals is worrying. Wolves are a team that once in a while throw up a surprise. They played well against Chelsea and made Cech make some fine saves. Away from home though, they have struggled. I cannot pick a winner here. My bet will be under 2.5 goals. Neither side are scoring and the odds of 1.8 at bet365 seem high. Burnley (2.2) Draw (3.4) Portsmouth (3.75) Burnley need to rediscover that early home form if they are to avoid relegation. Laws hasn't had an easy time since taking over, lots of away games which they have all lost. Last home game they did managed to beat West Ham and before that it was a late goal that allowed Chelsea to take all 3 points. Portsmouth are certain to be relegated if they go in to administration this week. There's a strong case even without the 10 point deduction. Since beating Liverpool, on 19th December, Portsmouth haven't won a league game. I'm backing Burnley to win this. Odds are 2.2 at Stoke (5.5) Draw (3.75) Arsenal (1.73) Stoke don't mind playing Arsenal at home. Last season they won 2-1 and this season in the FA Cup, they won 3-1. Stoke knocked Man City out of the FA Cup this week too. Last league game, they snatched a late win despite being down to 10 men. Despite beating Liverpool and Sunderland in their last 2 league games I am not convinced that Arsenal are as strong a team as their league position suggests. They desperately need a striker. Looking at the odds, I can only go with a Stoke win. They played 120 minutes midweek but 5.5 at William Hill is a cracking price. 28 February 2010 Tottenham (2) Draw (3.4) Everton (4.2) This is a good opportunity for Spurs to cement that 4th place. I don't think they'll do it though. Spurs seem to bottle it every time they get close. They managed to lose to Wolves a couple of weeks ago and were fortunate to get that first goal against Wigan last weekend. Everton played in Europe this week with a strong squad. Unfortunately for them, they lost 3-0 and are out of the Europa League. That's disappointing considering they went in to the game off the back of beating Chelsea and Manchester United. Tough one to call this. I would have gone Everton if it wasn't for the midweek result. Instead, I will go for the draw its 3.4 at bet365. Liverpool (1.4) Draw (4.8) Blackburn (10) Liverpool made heavy work of their Europa Cup tie against Unirea. They conceded an early goal but eventually won 3-1. They are currently on a 5 win streak at home. Away its been a different matter but at Anfield they are performing. Blackburn have been poor away from home this season. Big Sam targets his winnable games very well and as a result generally win the winnable games. I can't see him putting this down as one though. Liverpool win for me. Its 1.4 at Boylesport Sunderland (2.25) Draw (3.3) Fulham (3.6) Sunderland seem to have gone in to free-fall since beating Arsenal way back in November. No win in the 13 games after that. A lot of draws in that run though, especially at home. Fulham have picked themselves up after a dreadful January. 3 wins and a draw so far in February. Plus they knocked Shakhtar out of the Europa League, its been an excellent month for Fulham. They do have problems winning away from home though. Its got to be the draw for me. Sunderland don't seem to win whereas Fulham don't seem to win away from home. Odds are 3.3 at William Hill. ← 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 → |
