    Fair enough then Derek. It's just that the way some posters go on you'd swear they were millionaires raking in the dough. Very low success rate on the advice given here I'm sure you'll admit. Apologies if I caused any offence. Everyone is entitled to an opinion.

    I've got a fairly good success rate partly thanks to this thread, just looking at my bet365 records there, I've about tripled my invested in terms of depositing 720 euros, withdrawing 2057 euros,

    I'll get ya screen shots when i'm home.

    BTW your names not Coughlan by any chance?

    Here is a 100% sure bet - Madrid will beat Barcelona

    Barcelona has seven wins and three draws against only one loss to Madrid in all competitions under Pep

    Of course Mourinho could park the bus and grind out a win but i think to call it SURE BET is comical.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,621 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    R Van Persie to score in 90 minutes and Arsenal to win the match 6/5 is a pretty interesting bet

    He's on fire at the moment and Arsenal are all rested up for the match too


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭Srooney03


    Torquay at 5/6 win later are very tempting

    The bet of the weekend to me looks like Charlton away to Walsall at 5-6.

    Serie A looks bright this weekend too with Lazio away to Lecce @ 10-11, Milan away to Bologna @ 1-2 and Udinese at home to Chievo @ 1-2.

    There aint many times you see Barca at 2-1 for a match so that has to be taken as well in the game of the weekend.

    Other notables are West Ham away to Reading @ 7-4. They play much better away from Upton Park.

    Gone for Jones to be booked anytime for Schalke 13/8

    He's only back from a suspension which was caused by 5 yellow cards :pac:

    Its a bit dodgy betting on him for this game because I dont know can Herta cause Schalke trouble

    Can anyone see a market up for players to be booked in WBA Wigan?Theres talk of both Odemwingie and Long starting which if is the case I can see them causing a lot of trouble for both Alcaraz and Caldwell.

    Braga (-1) at 21/20 on 365 looks a very decent bet tonight. Braga have covered the (-1) in 4/5 home games this season in the league. Their other result was a 1-1 draw at home to Benfica. Pacos de Ferreira have scored two goals away from home this season and have let in 10 in their 5 games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,621 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Iv read that Braga are missing players

    Make sure on them before ya commit


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,642 ✭✭✭Luap


    Norwich V Newcastle

    Expecting goals here. Newcastle missing defenders S Taylor & Coloccini, and defensive midfielder Tiote is not expected to be back. Newcastle's defence has been fairly solid this year, but I think I am right in saying the back 4 were ever-presents, and so to now miss arguably their 2 best defenders is a big blow.


    Some stats:
    -In Norwich's 7 home games, there have been 22 goals.
    -In their last 3 homes, there were 12 goals – For 6, Against 6.
    -Norwich have yet to keep a clean sheet in 14 games.
    -Both teams to score has landed in 12 of the 14 games.
    -Failed to shut out QPR, Sunderland, Swansea & WBA - all struggling for goals this season.
    -After opening clean sheets away to QPR & Sunderland, Newcastle have failed to have a shut out in their last 5, with both teams to score landing in all 5.

    Over 2.5 (8/11) and both teams to score (4/7) look to be solid bets.

    I went for Braga to win to nil @ 2.10 . Braga have one of the best defenses in the league while Ferreira have only scored 2 goals in there last 5 away match's

    edit : if only i had seen headshots post earlier , here's hoping

    sounds like someone lost alot money
    never said it was a sure thing, just looked at home form v away form- and bet looked good. And comparing the form, a home win was not a "ludicrous bet"

    Gonna follow you on this HS. I miss Jones playing in prem, his card record last season was literally second to none!

    Hopefully the Luiz performance was only a blip and he'll be back to his usual self against City. In fairness he didn't get much of an opportunity to put his foot in against Valencia.

    Who you gonna back in Barca/Real? Alonso, Di Maria and Pepe for Real are the standouts. Pique, Mascherano and Alves for Barca. I wonder would Paddy quote a price on accum for all on them:pac:

    yeah PP's odds are unbackable, Unibet is a bit better but still not great. Alves is 6/5 on unibet and 1/2 on PP. Busquets is 1/5 on PP and 15/13 on unibet. Some difference in price.

    Hopefully VC gets worked tomorrow anyway!

    Hertha Schalke under 9 Asian corners @ 9/10 worth a look

    Hertha average 3 corners p/g at home. 6 out of 7 home games under 9.
    Schalke average 4 corners p/g away. 4 out of 7 away games under 9.

    Had a punt on Braga -1 @ 21/20


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,071 ✭✭✭✭wp_rathead


    Reading v West Ham

    Reading score 91.4% of their goals in 2nd half
    West Ham score 56.1% of their goals in 2nd half
    My bet: Most Goals in 2nd half @ 21/20 or Over 1.5 Goals in 2nd Half @ 11/10

    Stockport V Stalybridge

    Stalybridge Celtic are in 2nd place in league below Stockport, who are a team in terrible form (haven't won since 18th October, and has got only 1 point from last 8 games) and facing almost certain relegation. Stalybridge will target this game as a scalp.

    Nice one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 624 ✭✭✭gudede


    No doubt I probably won't be able to repeat last weeks showing but here's my picks for tomorrow

    Burnley v Portsmouth – Burnley @ 21/20
    Portsmouth have lost 6 out of there nine away games his season, in fact they failed to score in six of them (five out of there last six away games). Portsmouth definitely prefer to play at home this season. Burnley for there part are abit up and down at home but they do score goals at home (scoring in every game bar two) I feel Portsmouth's away form is so bad that I think there is value in Burnley.

    Leicester v Peterborough – Leicester @ 4/6
    Leicester have won 60% of their home games this season (6/10), where Peterborough have lost 60% (6/10)...Peterborough have a terrible habit of leaving goals in and Leicester have a good defence (kept five clean sheets in their 10 games)

    Middlesbrough v Brighton – Brighton @ 7/2
    Brough won their first game in five last week, I just feel they don't score enough and there is value in Brighton @ 7/2. Brighton have turned a corner in the last couple of weeks (three game win streak).

    Reading v West Ham – 1st Half Betting Draw @ EVS
    Reading have drawn 16 out of 20 games at half time this season. Alot of these have been nil all, West Ham for there part have only drawn 3 at half time on the road but there is normally only one goal scored in the first have of there away games (5 out of 10 games)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 542 ✭✭✭clearodara


    Valencia away to Betis tomorrow look a savage price @ 5/4. Betis have lost four and drawn one of their last five games. Valencia have won 4 and lost one of their last 5. 5/4 on the away win looks a serious price, considering Valencia were knocked out of the Champions League mid week and will want to get a foot hold in the league with the two big sides playing tomorrow aswell. In the previous six meetings between Valencia and Betis it's worth noting that Valencia have won the previous 6.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,351 ✭✭✭magherakid


    Treble

    Walsall v Charlton
    Charlton 4/5 are the inform team with Walsall only picking up 2 points in there last 6 games

    Falkirk v Hamilton
    Falkirk 4/5 are unbeaten at home in the league

    Stranraer v East Stirling
    Stranraer HT/FT 21/20 should win here, East Stirling are yet to win away from home

    Hibs +1 tomorrow against der hun is 13/8.

    Very good value imo, baring any dogdy referring decisions I think it has a good chance of coming through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,172 ✭✭✭NaiveMelodies


    Is it just me or is Barca 9/5 or Barca DNB 11/10 is amazing value?
    All form has to go out the window tomorrow night. Barca defence may be shaky, but Real can't do a bloody thing if they don't have the ball? Can see Barca winning this well. Ridiculous value imo.

    Who in their right mind would have Real at 7/5??

    Just noticed Real are 6/4, dunno why I though 7/5, regardless, Barca should be favs.

    Line is more than likely gone. I didn't think it would even last to this morning but must have lasted most of the day. I backed it though so wait for the cleanest El Classico in history.

    I quite like the look of Wimbledon to draw at home to Accrington Stanley tomorrow (12/5 VC):
