Spurs have won four and lost none of their six Premier League trips to Carrow Road.

Ricky van Wolfswinkel and Johan Elmander have produced just one goal and six shots on target between them this season, despite playing a combined total of 1961 minutes in the Premier League.

Only Chelsea and man city have more points than spurs while norwich linger in the bottom 3 form table.

That's why you never see a bookie on a bicycle.

What do we make of Tottenham? 23/20 with B365, think it's a bit of a crazy price given Norwich's form in general and Spurs away form.

They are Spurs of course, and there is the mid week game but with Adebayor and Eriksen coming back into the squad it will add a lot more to them going forward.

Anyone else got any thoughts?

I hate this club a lot.

Lyon DNB @ 2.10
Lyon double chance @ 1.60
Lacazette wincast @ 7.50

- Lyon rested almost their entire team in the Europa League to prepare for this game
- Lyon badly need 3 pts as they want to get the final CL spot (3rd place), and they're 5 pts behind St Etienne (3rd). Lille are level on points with St Etienne
- Lyon are in good form, and have won in difficult grounds like Bastia, Reims and Nantes
- Lille are nothing special imo
- Lille are missing Basa - their strongest CB

Lyon didn't lose!

Think Hull are a decent price tonight home against Brighton(4/5 pp). Long and Jelavic are cup tied but they were still getting good results before these signings. Bruce will fancy a good cup run I think as his side are relatively safe. Fryatt and Sagbo should be keen to make an impression after losing their places. Brighton only 1 point off championship play offs but I'll take nearly evens for a decent premiership side at home to championship team any day off the week!

I agree with this, they should have enough at home. Ive put them in a treble with Utd 6-5 and Real 4-9 in the CL. Real could hammer Schalke and Utd are doing well in Europe this season

francie81 · 24-02-2014 08:25PM

Lad's am all over Benfica on this basis maybe a -1

I took this , 5/1 with boyles
1 down 2 to go

Dartford to beat Aldershot (9/4)
Dartford and draw (8/11)

This is a massive price for the home side. Dartford are in great form at the moment, winning 4 and drawing 1 of their last 5 matches and those wins were against some top teams in that division like Cambridge, Kidderminster and Wrexham. Aldershot have only won 3 of 16 away games this season and are winless in 4 games. Their last game was a 2-2 draw against Hyde who are the whipping boys of that division.

Have to take Man Utd at 5/4 against Olympicaos. I dont see much quality in the Greek side at all. A good chance for United to put their PL woes to one side

Avfctom · 25-02-2014 12:11PM

Don't fancy Dortmund at all today been poor most part of the season can't touch them at odds on can see hulk causing problems have gone for a double of

Zenit or draw 10/11
Man United 5/4
Double

Also had the van persie wincast as 4/1 is a great price

inforfun · 25-02-2014 12:45PM

Not doing anything with St Petersburg before i have seen the pitch.

mike65 · 25-02-2014 01:01PM

Have to agree, Dortmund are impossible to predict - the result could be anything from 3-0 to 0-3. It'll probably be a slog on horrid "turf" in any event.

SheldonC17 · 25-02-2014 02:42PM

Dortmund game is impossible to call with their form and also the fact it is Zenits first game in 2 months.

My bets for tonight are Man Utd win 5/4
Utd to win by exactly 1 11/4

Agree. Best around is 5/2 so this is a nice enhanced price from Paddy.

If your using that reasoning for Dortmund being hard to call whats your reasoning for United to win having only won 1 of their last 5 away? Olympiakos have won 18 out of their 20 home games this season losing only to PSG.

Won't let me stake on this now. Says its over. Good value considering he seems to be on peno's now as well.

A lot of people must have got on. It might come up again later.
I managed to get 20 on.

looks like everyone and their mother has gotten on united for tonight (myself included) ,
we heading for a downfall here ?

I can't see any reasoning for betting on United by people other than blind faith. As per my post above Olympiakos are very strong at home (although against weaker oposition in general) and United have been weak away recently other than beating Palace.

I'm staying clear of the game but think that Van Persie wincast had value before it disappeared.

I am backing Dortmund though (depending on pitch news) which seems to be against some general thoughts also. Their away form is very strong other than losing at the weekend.

Stop trying to discombobulate us with your thoughts on Utd. :pac:

Olympiakos V' Man United under 1.5 goals 2/1 with Paddy power.

Good shout, can probably trade out at half time if it's looking hairy.

in fairness , Uniteds away form in the champions league this season has been very good (probably the brightest parts of the season so far) , so i would ahve to disagree with "blind faith" .

its just reminding me of Athletic Bilbao from 2 weeks back , everyone and their mother backed at home (and rightly so ), but then they lost ,

On the unders bet as well, im expecting a fairly tight game. United drew two of their three away group games, one at a poor Sociedad side and a middle of the road Skakhtar. Olympiakos are very strong at home. Draw and Unders look decent to me.

Lasagna Diarra · 25-02-2014 04:06PM

The last 7 games between Bangor City and Airbus have gone under 2.5 - http://int.soccerway.com/matches/2014/02/25/wales/premier-league/bangor-city-fc/airbus-uk-fc/1642747/head2head/

small bet on under 2.5 @ 2.00

Small bet only cuz I found out that Bangor have a new GK - signed from Nantwich Town... a 7th division English club, how bad is Welsh football lol?

Winning one out of three wouldn't exactly be very good. The Leverkusen game they won came as a complete shock to everyone at the time

Shane St. · 25-02-2014 04:25PM

I'm staying clear of both games tonight.

magherakid · 25-02-2014 04:53PM

Luton v Wrexham
Luton to win & over 2.5 goals 6/5
Luton scoring for fun lately and unbeaten at home, Wrexham got rid off their player manager yesterday.

Slimseamie · 25-02-2014 05:06PM

What do people think of the enhanced power player of Bordeaux and Celtic to win at 3/1? Bordeaux have won 8 out of 13 home games while Lorient have won just 3 out of 13 away and Celtic are playing away to Aberdeen, tough enough game (Aberdeen are 2nd) but you would definitely expect Celtic to win, double seems good value although French mid table teams do scare me and have a feeling that they could draw

mike65 · 25-02-2014 05:36PM

Too many imponderables for me but here are the teams

Zenit:
Lodygin, Criscito, Lombaerts, Neto, Anyukov, Shatov, Fayzulin, Witsel, Hulk, Arshavin, Rondón.

Subs: Malafeev, Hubočan, Smolnikov, Luković, Zyryanov, Tymoshchuk, Kerzhakov.

Dortmund:
Weidenfeller, Friedrich, Papastathopoulos, Piszczek, Schmelzer, Kehl, Reus, Şahin, Grosskreutz, Lewandowski, Mkhitaryan.

Subs: Langerak, Sarr, Durm, Hofmann, Jojic, Aubameyang, Schieber.
