14 Feb 20:05 / UEFA Europa League / Round of 32 / 1st Leg / Newcastle United vs Metalist Kharkiv / Total Goals (Metalist Kharkiv) - Over 1 @ 1.93
14 Feb 20:05 / UEFA Europa League / Round of 32 / 1st Leg / Stuttgart vs Genk / Total Goals (Genk) - Over 0.5 @ 1.59
14 Feb 20:05 / UEFA Europa League / Round of 32 / 1st Leg / Basel vs Dnipro / Total Goals (Dnipro) - Over 1 @ 1.59
14 Feb 18:00 / UEFA Europa League / Round of 32 / 1st Leg / Sparta Prague vs Chelsea / Total Goals (Sparta Prague) - Over 0.5 @ 1.63

Anyone know if you can bet on a goal from a set piece in Real v Utd, and what the definition of a goal from a set piece includes?

Did you find a way to get on this? I doubt such a market exists and the closest is probably "method of 1st goal" - shot, header, free kick, penalty etc.

Anyone want to have a guess at the Scottish third division games this weekend? I've started enjoying putting my weekly tenner on this league as its a little bit more predictable cause all the teams are terrible. Plus the looks you get when you check up the scores in the pub.

Annan Athletic V East Stirling
Montrose V Elgin
Peterhead V Sterling
Queens Park V Berwick

Like the poster above who does scottish football, I wll do a couple of singles and a low stake double. The games are poor with no consistancy. These teams can be losing all the time then they go off on a winning streak, then start losing again

Ayr to win @ 13/5, they have been banging goals in quiet a lot lately and could nick this game .

Hamilton to win @ 9/2, Their opponents Brechin are a bit hit or miss and Hamilton can be good at times.

Two singles on above and a small stake double @ a tasty just over 19/1.

Hamilton play Partick

Celtic to win, Dortmund DNB, Middlesbrough DNB and Marseilles DNB
€1.50 returns a potential €166

I prefer when it goes wrong like this than when 1 lets me down! Seems easier to take for some reason!

Had a stonker of a night myself, fancied Marseille, Dortmund big time! Oh well

Dear Paddy Power, I think it is a pointless exercise slow trading an in-play market and opening the book after 20 mins when a team is already 3-0 to the good. There is zero value in the markets being traded.

Gone big on man united this weekend vs Norwich. Norwichs win Last week will have taken the pressure off them and I feel united will be looking for a good performance before Madrid.
€200 @ 4/11

With a 12 point lead in the league and a huge game on Tuesday night, possibilites Ferguson plays a reserve side. Would you not wait to see the team he names? 4/11 with those risks is too short for me.

Even with a few players being rested I can't see united not getting 3 points.
Granted it's a bit of a gamble but I'm a united fan and I've faith in fergie.

All I'm saying is wait till the team is announced, it could affect the price to your benefit.

Treble over 2.5 goals
Sparta Rotterdam v De Graafschap 4/7
Veendam v FC Volendam 4/9
Maastricht v FC Emmen 4/9

is betting on under 2 goals in the same as betting on 0 or 1 goals in the total goals market? stupid question probably but there is a difference in price
