Weekend footy betting (2nd>4th)

silentbob

Right, a long weekend this week & it starts right here. Most selections will be posted up later today but for starters I'm going for a Friday special on these 3:

West Brom to beat Leicester (H) @ 8/13
Millwall to beat Brentford (H) @ 1/2
Norwich to beat Tranmere (A) @ 8/11

These 3 pay 3/1 so a cheeky tenner to get the ball rolling for the weekend sounds good to me.

West Brom are one of the form teams of the Championship at the moment with only 1 defeat in their last 8 home & away. At the Hawthorns they've won their last 6 straight. At a quick glance Leicester's away form actually doesn't look too bad with victories against Doncaster & Palace in their last 6. However, they've lost their last 2 at Derby & Cardiff & West Brom should be too strong for them at The Hawthorns knowing that 3 points here will edge them a little closer to the top flight whilst putting a little more daylight between themselves & the chasing pack.

Only Norwich have a slightly better recent home record in League 1 than Millwall. It's now 11 league games since they lost at The New Den & in their last 10 there they've won 9 of them (Southampton are the only team to take a point from there in this run). Brentford have been doing reasonably well on the road of late winning 3 of their last 6, however they have lost 3 of their last 4 away from Griffin Park & I think it's highly unlikely they'll be able to stop that becoming 4 from 5 tonight.

Tranmere are battling against relegation & the last thing they need tonight is a visit from league leaders Norwich who are tearing the division up. Tranmere have lost 2 & drawn once of their last 3 at Prenton Park & have a few injury & suspension worries too. Norwich pretty much have a clean bill of health & are fast closing in on an instant return to the Championship. Norwich have only lost once on the road in their last 12 away from Carrow Road which came at Millwall back in February.

On to tomorrow's games & three different bets for me.

Main Acca:

Man City to beat Burnley (A) @ 8/13

Newcastle to beat Peterborough (A) @ 4/7

Rochdale to beat Chesterfield (A) @ 5/4

Notts Co to beat Bury (H) @ 8/11

Inverness to beat Raith (H) @ 4/9

These 5 pay 13/1

Both City & Burnley need the points for different reasons here but Burnley are struggling & look to be down already. Despite starting the season strongly at home winning 5 of their first 6 at Turf Moor, they've won there just once since then (unfortunately that single victory came against us!). That victory is also Burnley's only victory in the last 21 home & away. City are unbeaten in their last 4 away from home including impressive victories at Fulham & Chelsea.

New castle can clinch an instant return to the top flight with Victory at Peterborough tomorrow if Forest lose at Bristol City & I certainly expect them to uphold their end of the bargain. Newcastle have lost only once in their last 10 home & away whilst Peterborough have just been poor all season. They could also be relegated tomorrow if they lose & results go against them.

Chesterfield have been a bogey team for my acca's of late losing games they should've won & conceding last second equalisers. This time I'm sure I've got it right with them. Their recent form is equal to bottom side Darlington with only 1 win in their last 6. Rochdale are the form team of the division winning their last 5 on the bounce.

Fortunately for Chesterfield, they're not the most out of form side in the division. That accolade goes to Bury who face a very tricky trip to Notts Co.  Bury have 1 win in their last 8 home & away and have only picked up 2 points from their last 12 on the road. County have the 2nd best recent form record in the division winning 4 & drawing 2 of their last 6 home & away. In fact, they're unbeaten in 9 anywhere. They currently sit 2nd with games in hand over their promotion rivals & will be looking to put some more space between themselves & Bury who currently occupy 6th place. County are unbeaten in their last 6 at home, winning 4 of them.

Inverness are currently 4 points clear at the top of the Scottish 1st division & they come up against a Raith side who are only 3 points clear of the relegation play off spot (albeit with games in hand).

Handicapped Acca:

Man City (-1) to beat Burnley (A) @ 7/4

Bristol City (+1) to beat Forest (H) @ 8/15

Swindon (+1) to beat Leeds (A) @ 4/5

Charlton (+1) to beat MK Dons (A) @ 1/2

Rangers (-2) to beat Hamilton (H) @ 11/8

These 5 pay a healthy 26/1

As I touched on earlier, Burnley are all but down now & with Tevez in form this game won't help their goal difference. Bristol City have picked up since Gary Johnson left & considering Forest's recent away form 8/15 with a goal start is big. Leeds have not only let top spot slip from their grasp but are now in serious danger of ending up in the play offs again. They've dropped points at Elland Road to lesser teams than Swindon who have picked up again after a sticky patch. Charlton are only 3 points off 2nd spot but face a tricky trip to Milton Keynes. Charlton beat the Dons 5-1 at the Valley earlier in the season but they're tricky customers at home. Rangers have all but won the league & have already beaten Hamilton 4-1 at Ibrox earlier in the season. For all intents & purposes Hamilton have very little left to play for now as well. They can't finish in the top half & are pretty safe from relegation being 11 points clear.

Long Shot:

Man Utd to beat Chelsea (H) @ 13/8

Stoke to beat Hull (H) @ 4/5

Spurs to beat Sunderland (A) @ 11/10

Reading to beat Ipswich (A) @ 7/4

Huddersfield to beat Wycombe (A) @ 11/10

These 5 are paying a big 56/1 so a small dabble is the order of the day here.

Man Utd at home & not odds on? OK, I know they're playing Chelsea but still, 13/8 is too big to ignore. Stoke really should be beating a Hull side who have yet to win away from home all season. I mean, even we beat them at Upton Park! Spurs haven't won at Sunderland since 2001 but they know anything less than 3 points here means missing out on 4th spot (considering the other games in their run in as well). Sunderland have picked up a bit of late so this one is gonna be tight. As a side note, it might even be worth a punt on Darren Bent scoring the first goal @ 5/1. He'll be up for this game make no mistake. Reading are one of the form teams in the Championship having lost only once in their last 8 & they very nearly took the points against West Brom last week too. However, Ipswich have drawn 18 of their 40 league games so far & this could easily finish in another stalemate. Huddersfield are very hit & miss & currently sit outside the play offs by just 3 points. If they do miss out it'll be down to their away form. Wycombe are currently 7 points from safety & picking up points at home will be crucial if they're to survive.

Good luck with all your bets over the weekend.

silentbob

Why do I get the feeling it's gonna be one of those days where you get so close but not quite close enough?

silentbob

Seeing as City are 3-0 up after 7 minutes it looks as though I'll make a couple of quid back from my main acca on the 4-folds. Once again Chesterfield have sc rewed me over for the 3rd time in quick succession. I will not bet on their matches for the remainder of the season.

Unfortunately only Rangers let me down on the handicapped acca too only winning 1-0.

However, all is not lost. I've got a small treble on tonight:

Roda JC to beat RKC Waalwijk (H) @ 4/11

Gronigen to beat Vitesse (A) @ 5/4

Barcelona to beat Bilbao (H) @ 1/6

The treble pays 5/2.

There's a full football league & conference programme on Monday so I'll post up my selections during tomorrow.

achill

ok guys i'm £44 up but have decided to try and get a little more.

£20 double man city win, cardiff/swansea under 2.5 goals pays £50.

 

silentbob

Nice work achill. The City game's already a winner but the Cardiff/Swansea one's a tough call. Hope it comes in for ya.

dubmaster

what a disaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! try again monday gl all with your bets

35suited

Just loaded sky bet up fancied another bet, picked out

Az alkmar
Roda JC
Heerenveen
Sevilla
Montpellier
Barcelona
Porto

Only wnated a small 5 quid bet, but this only paid 9/1!!!!! i just know one is gonig to loose so closed it down without putting bet on, so of course now I nkow it will come in you wait and see.

achill

oh sugar. 92 minute.

Was going to have just a £50 single bet on man city but talked myself out of it.

That's it i'm never listening to me again.

edit. just won £30 in plo mtt so not been to bad a day. 

edit 2. just put £22 on haye to win in rounds 1-9 any method @ 8/11

unknown_username

Not been a good week for me since collecting some winnings last weekend.
After placing these two bets my account is now empty so I'm praying at least one of these returns!

Ajax
Madrid
PSV
Villareal

This is 4/1 so although there are no certainties as we have found out, I'm relying heavilly on it and put 10 quid on. Dare I say it's my banker!

Everton
Celtic
Valencia
Villareal
Mallorca
Real Madrid
Marseille
Auxerre
Hamburg
Ajax
Feyenoord
Heracles
PSV

This is a very long shot at around 480/1. Put my last 50p so please be lucky!

A bit cautious about putting certain teams in both bets aswell as a few teams who have played midweek in Europe. It can often be very risky picking teams inbetween European games but I need to take the risk to avoid me making a trip to the bank to refund my account! Which is probably inevitable after results this week.

Good luck everyone and lets hope we can all end the weekend on a high with some winnings!
