ST MIRREN let me down on Saturday but I'm praying St Etienne do me justice on Sunday.
St Etienne are in great form having won six in a row and head for Stade de Reims full of belief.
The run has lifted the sleeping giants to fourth in the table and they must be targeting a challenge for a Champions League spot.
Reims have won just one in six and are struggling just above the drop zone and this should be an away win. St Etienne are a biggest 11-10 at BetVictor.
I'm staying in France and adding PSG at Sochaux. PSG are beginning to move clear at the top of Ligue 1 and showed their quality by beating Valenica away to stand on the verge of a Champions League last-eight slot.
Zlatan Ibrahmovic will be banned for the second leg after being sent off but can show his importance to the side with a goal at Sochaux. Bastia, who lost 3-1, are the only French side to score against PSG in recent weeks and Sochaux's chances don't look good having netted just two in four games.
Ibrahimovic is a biggest 5-2 with the likes of William Hill and Paddy Power to score first while PSG are 27-20 at Betway to win to nil.
Complete the treble with Vitesse who are at home Groningen. Vitesse have lost just once at home this season and look rock solid despite a couple of away defeats.
Groningen have won just once in six visits to Vitesse and lost 3-0 at home to their opponents earlier this season. They have won their last two in the Dutch league against sides below them but could struggle here. Vitesse are 7-10 with the likes of BetVictor and remember this is an early 11.30 kick-off.
For my Super Single I'm taking a chance on Swansea at Liverpool. The Reds were dire on Monday as they lost 2-0 at home to West Brom and missed Daniel Sturridge more than they should have.
Liverpool huffed and puffed for most of the game and the defeat seems to have ended any hope they had of grabbing a Champions League slot.
Swansea are up against former boss Brendan Rodgers so many players will want to do well and already have a 3-1 win at Anfield in the Capital One Cup tucked under their belts this season.
The Welsh side ended a poor run of form with last week's 4-1 hammering of QPR and that will have lifted confidence. They look too big at 5-1 (various) and you can even have the Swans minus one at 6-4 with Skybet and Betfred.
Michu netted in that win over QPR and he is 8-1 with the likes of bet365, Paddy Power and Betway to score first.
Anyone who fancies Liverpool will be looking at Luis Suarez who is 7-2 at the likes of BetVictor and Paddy Power.

Villarreal betis double pays just over 7/1
Sorry Muzz..Velez Sarsfield…posting this 10 mins from end..watching stream…one of those ridiculous matches that had Independiente player sent off after 22 mins then getting pummeled ti death since scoring a goal from a speculative cross that looped in at the far corner on ht and have hung on..Velez shood scored a walk in goal after 55 mins..too good to be true n managed to fuck up…one of those ridiculous games that just dunt make sense unfortunately..havna been oota their own half in the 2nd period??…fucking cashed in after the sitter miss/just knew..unbelievable stuff..thatz sport…unfortunately!!
No probs Guido that’s the gamble! You are the expert in that market in my eyes – I haven’t got a clue so don’t say sorry
:-( just one of those games…cood be playing til now and widna score…frustrating..Independiente weren’t out of their half in 2nd half,,the goal was a freak cross that dropped in at far post!!! Thunderstorm helps dull the pain ther tho :-) did single n doubled it with the one u said in the next race…
Fingers crossed mate – me too!

Bonkers Bet – Huddersfield 3 – Wigan 2 @ 33/1
I’m going for fa cup Chelsea to win is 1/6 but Cahill to score anytime looks tempting and Chelsea win 7/1 worth a tenner
Does anyone know the price of PSG think they will win easy
Marco, they’re about 1-2 and on my treble. Check best prices for any game at betrescue or oddschecker.
Couple of Bundesliga tips for 2day……..
Nurnberg 2 beat Hannover. I don’t really rate Nurnberg but they’re in decent form and r good at home. Hannover r poor away from home.
Ibisevic(Stuttgart) anytime. Although Hoffenheim have improved quite a bit recently,I can still see Stuttgart scoring and I fancy Ibisevic against his old team.
psg best price 1/2 wi ladbrokes betvictor and SJ, not the best price away fi home but should win. ht draw/ft psg for me

Pd the first line is any 3 and all 4
What does anyone think off them ?
Tam, not convinced about Bordeaux or Wigan -1 and haven’t looked at the Swiss. Wigan will probably play a weakened side.
Yeah lyon a goal up already , everytime I take them to win they get stuffed., thought I would oppouse them this time
I just think wigan’s class should show 10/3
Minus 1
Thanks for the response
Agree with ya on Swansea Paul..5/1 to big to ignore…adding Catania and Cagliari..Trixie n single on Swans
Avioding French teams like the plague after last weeks fiasco…never touching them ever again! :-(
few correct scores Trixie…3-1 Fiorentina, 3-1 Ajax, 4-1 RMad
nothing special yesterday but everyone should be on Nuremburg to beat hannover 96 at even money
nuremburg have been imprisive in some of the games i have watched and in truth betted against them and couple of times been unlucky like last week they were all over frankfurt and deserved to take all points back home but came away with a point
nuremburg are up against a side (hannover) who have lost 8 and won 2 away this season while nuremburg display an avergae home record however there last 5 at home is 4 wins and 1 draw
Also hoffenhiem look a better side under new management and they will be focused on these home games to get out of the relagation zone and what an oppertunity than to be at home to a stuttgart side that looks in trouble itsself
so also go hoffenhiem to beat stuttgart (13/10)
Liverpool 1-0 @ 8/1
Liverpool to win by 1 goal @ 3/1
Ht Draw Ft Liverpool @ 7/2
Steven Gerrard First Goal @ 7/1
Liverpool fan by any chance Chris :-)
Really tempted by Swansea.
7/1 Swansea win And Swansea plus one 15/8 at paddy power. Good luck lads
No Ryan just fancy them to win.
TBH Chris, with Michu on the bench, so do I now
Well done chris with Stevie g
GERRARD !!!!! well done chris, much did you put on him mate?
£100 David. Cheers man nice with the penalty. Hoping it stays 1-0 too. £800 back so delighted. Was going to back him anytime but he was only like 9/4 so decided to go first. 7/1 best price with Skybet.
Chris, you are the official first goal scorer KING!! Anytime I do it I always come a cropper
Seamus thanks, I wasn’t going to put anything on the game but decided early afternoon to back them. Missed out on draw/Liverpool
But don’t care about that cos I’ve made a healthy profit already and my other 2 bets look good mate.
Good man! now I hope the swans pull wan back at least, got them on +1
Nice one mate. Hopefully you can keep up this rich vein of form into your head to head.
I will be routing for my fellow tim :-) LOL
Catania n Cagliari in for double…Swansea no looking good for treble tho…
Udinese just missed an open goal with the last kick of the game….unreal
Peter, that doesn’t make me feel any better re the btts line. 2 out of 3 up so far so need 2 more for a bit of profit.
Its one if those Muzza, win some, lose some mate. Its always been one if my fav bets. I used to back last goalscorers too but started to get fed up with the player being substituted in 67th minute lol.
Hate when iPhone predicts the word of to be if
LOL same with iPad!
Game over Liverpool game
Sure is. Got Wigan st etienne and fenerbache treble with my betis Villarreal double as well. Here’s hoping, st etienne 1-0 up just now
Game over Liverpool game. Regardless of outcome now still up £500. Only hope for more winnings is if Swansea pull a few back but doubtful.

Liverpool are something else…coodna hit a barn door when everyone backed them in midweek…today they lead 5-0 when I bodyswerved them?? FFS
Not suggesting its a cert but at 3/1 I fancy Valladolid to beat Athletico Madrid…they don’t impress me on the road. Canna resist 3/1 on a side that’s tough to beat.
What time does that KO Guido?
Get 10’s on them now Guido……..
Watched first 15 mins Muzza…loked like the whole Valladolid team hadn’t met each other before…pish!! Think I’ll refrain tform backing them further…never know..they might turn it round?
Guido here’s the actual meaning of Liverpool
1. Displaying or marked by a lack of consistency, especially:
a. Not regular or predictable;
b. erratic: inconsistent
Seamus….I coodnt have put it any better if I had a dictionary in front of me:-) hahaha
Very good Seamus
For anyone looking for an extra tip for tonight.
Espanyol have won 4 in a row at home, also won 4-0 away from home last week at Atletico Bilbao.Real Betis have failed to win in 4 games including 2 away defeats in a row.
Espanyol at 21/20 to win so might be worth a wee bet. Betis have also not scored in the last two away defeats so a Win to Nil might also be worth a little bet.
Andy – good spot there. Espanyol look a good shout…on a good run. Might be another oneworth considering there Muzza
Bets for tonight’s games.
Xabi Alonso to score anytime 11/1 @ Betfair or 7/1 @ Coral.
Real Madrid to be winning after 15 mins @ 21/10
Benfica to be winning after 15 mins @ 2/1
£10 double returns £93 @ Ladbrokes

My advice would be to get on all 4 doubles or whichever ones you choose
Valladolid ko 6pm Muzza.
9p Newells Old Boys to beat Lanus at 6/4 in Argentina tonight…good home record.Probably be a closish match but Lanus lose a few away, Newells a good home team/ru in Apertura in Dec..Lanus 4th I think
Looking at the league positions I am not going to risk much on it pal. I think it will be a draw
Cheers Paul, I know its a pity but looking forward to some betting on man utd tomorrow
lads , done abet today in the city game over and over . Thr ref gave a corner which got my bet up , but blew the whistle before they took it . My opinion the corner counts . Any ideas ?
Spuddie, not sure, depends on each firm’s rules.
Good stats there Andy. I put betis Villarreal double on last night. Betis do have second best away form in la liga, do here’s hoping it was just a blip LOL.
Just need fenerbache to win and etienne to hold out as Wigan is now safe.
Valladolid..a pony at 3/1. Must have a chance. see how it goes maybe do Espanyol n Newells later
Just done a small bet on a match in the portuguese 2nd division, home team had scored 13 and conceded 13 in the last 6 games, it ended O-O…i was very surprised at that
Sods law unfortunately John :-(
lads , done abet today in the city game over and over . Thr ref gave a corner which got my bet up , but blew the whistle before they took it . My opinion the corner counts . Any ideas ?
Think corner has to be taken for it to count Spuddie.
Need another at etienne goal. Fenerbache 2-0 Wigan 3-1. So c’mon LOL
Spuddie I would argue that it should be a winner as the decision was still made during the game play.
Chris, it will be black and white with whoever he bets with because it’s not that rare. If he tells me which firm I’ll try to find out.
Chris, some start for Ramos. Scored, booked and sent off in the first 18 minutes.
Waiting on PSG , Real Madrid and benfica for a big Acca win 13 teams in total ten have already won. Slightly nervous what you reckon my chances are ?
Only one oota that 3 that wid bother me slightly Steven wid be PSG…but Im not a fan of French fitba!!
Steven, they are all short price favourites so you should be OK. I know the 8pm Sunday French game has thrown up a few shocks but PSG have been pretty solid recently so shouldn’t let you down. If one team is struggling you’ll be able to hedge your bet inrunning depending on what you’re due back.
Bad luck Steven :-( French fitba….avoid it at all costs
Guido, it’s the curse of the late French game again. At least there were goals but result was a surprise because PSG have been dominant in the league recently and not been conceding goals.
Paul, u promised urself a few times tp
o avoid it!! ;-) hope Stevem zt least laid it off somewhere…Benfica 95th min pen to win as well…suppose that’s the beauty of a perm..1 doon still nice..maybe he cashed it in running as well?….
Guido, I said I wouldn’t take it for btts although there have been goals now the last two weeks. But PSG looked good from all angles but again its just one of those results. Would have been tough for him to do anything with the accer in running with both PSG and Benfica letting him down until that pen.
I know Paul was a sickner just lucky 15 1st scorer did me tonight..
Falcao (up)
Ronaldo
Imbrahimovic
Cardozo
Took real psg benfica to be winning at 30mins
Took real benfica minus 1 at h/t plus psg minus f/t
Minus 1 full time with psg on second line wrote there guys. Good luck Peter and Steven i think your laughing mate – never a thing as a cert but would be surprised if it didn’t come in. Good luck lads
Cheers seamus iv got everything crossed good luck to yourself
Thanks. Must be a big win with a 13 acca, am sure you will be sound mate
Newells Old Boys 6/4, Espanyol EVS and Inter 10/3 (depends which Inter turns up fickle bunch but 10/3 a nice price) TRIXIE
I know its just one poor result but wondering if its time to start backing against Swansea.
When Norwich and West Broms bubble burst earlier in season i thot they would turn it around.
By the time i started backing against them i was obviously getting worse prices.
They should take care of Bradford in final next week but after that they play Newcastle who are 3.40 and seem to be improving after transfer window. Gonna keep an eye on both teams next week as Swansea have not got a huge squad with strength in depth so surprised they have kept up this run for so long. A good display from Geordies next week at home to Southampton could make my mind up.
Knottsy, as you say they should win the Final but I think you’ve got to take this one game at a time. You can’t really plan that far ahead.
knottsy, thats the unbeatable thing about competing in your sport, Swanseas lows today will be subtituted by the highs that will come back along very shortly. When you are competing regularly on a fitness level its an impossibility for the body to be robotic best all the time,
Spuddie flash scores shows it was 8-3 to city on corners.
Does anyone know what price liverpool are to quailfy against zenit europa league? Ok got beat 2 nil in first game but they could have beat them on the chances they made!
Alex, the price will be on any bookies site or comparison site.
Ladbrokes quoting 100/30 for Liverpool to qualify Alex
Aye a realise that Paul gonna keep an eye on both teams next week.
One thing tho – in two weeks time if Newcastle beat Swansea and you have it as your super single i at least want a mention!! :)
Knottsy, no worries but it’s one day at a time for me.
Thanks guys. Am a red and can see a great nite at anfield. Fancy us strongly! Not just we hammered a not full swansea team . Its our last chance to keep the season going!
Alex, I think only the staunchest Red would back Liverpool to qualify. Zenit will give it their best shot, no messing with line-ups, and if they score one Liverpool will need four. I’ll be surprised if Zenit go out.
Agree with ya ther Paul…Zenit will defo ko Liverpool…Liverpool are too inconsistent. If it were 3-1 they mita had a slight squeak 2-0 no margin for error…oot they go!
Another Jekyll n Hyde show from Inter tonite again…
I cant believe laudrup played a low key team today. 7 days before a cup final after taken his team to dubai for 5days and its only a div 2 team there playin in the final. Bet a lot of big gamblers won a lot today after seeing the swansea line up!
Alex, today was a good day to bet after seeing team news. I’m always going on about but if you can see the starting line-ups before betting it’s an advantage although you might miss a price.
Ah cheers guys I worry about PSG too only 1 1 at half time and Madrid look safe but down to ten men thanks to Ramos
alex, have you not bein in the position of underdog?????
rest assured that the lowly div 2 team will be scratchin at the doors just now to get out there and the same applies for the Swansea guys . todays defeat will be well out there system by now
Mr f zenit are no mugs. But liverpool get that early goal and anfield will be rockin! If i get 4to1 to quailfy am going to bite thd hand of it! My only concern is that sturridge cant play. But after the chances they made over there i think we can go to the next round! One game am lookin forward to this wk is arsenal u bayern munich. Could be a cracker!
Alex, the problem is which Liverpool will turn up: the one that lost to West Brom or the one that beat Swansea? It’s not one for me but I’m not saying it can’t happen.
The one that turned up against w brom were only a pen miss away from winning that game to. We have played sme great stuff this season. But have had a problem puttin the ball in the onion bag. And thats what counts!
Guido there is maybe only parkhead better on a european nite than anfield. 1 nil at half time and the reds will be in the next roumd!
I’m sure it is Alex…but in the old days Liverpool had teams that were capable of winning euro tournments..Zenit have been successful euro campaigners for a good few years now, they have a big advantage, I don’t see them folding tbh.
Park head and OLD TRAFFORD!!!! ;0)
Anyway the dutch 2nd division is back on tomorrow night, 3 games sort of look decent, Helmond Sport v De Graafshap, MVV v Veendam and Dordrecht v Den Bosch, shame their on late as my local bookie will be closed and i LOVE a bit of live betting :-)
Muzza your havin a laugh. You can hear a pin drop in there! Dont you remember the prawn sandwich mob! Yes they still go!
Lol “shit pit” compared to Trampfield???
Come back when you have one the premier league pal…. …
i can see there some bitching :0
Ask anyone and they will tell you that anfield has a better atmosphere than old trafford has for big games! FACT!
LOL – is it a RAFA FACT??
Hi Dave! Yeah, I think so…Rio de la Plata to win. :-) If ya want to boost ita bit maybe add Colo Colo in running?.. 0-0 approaching ht…mite get 4/5 soon?
Colo 4/5 on PPower Guido – worth a punt? And River Plate 10/11
Might do the double?
Think n hope so Muzza…
Gone for it £50 double. Going bed now & hoping for a nice surprise in the morning again
Laters pal
Guido you are the man! Nice little double there – the “sleeper bet” is back!! Hahaha
hahaha :-) I’ve got relatives in Liverpool…but appreciate the joke there!! :-) My cousin has a hoose (had it for years) that overlooks Melwood…umpteen people have offered to buyit off him for over the odds £s but hez refused…just an ordinary 3 or 4 bed hoose if I remember..many moons since Ive been in it.
Only friendly banter, no love lost!! ;0)
Muzza, beats the Old Firm hatred but let’s keep away from the old cliches about Scousers etc.
No probs Mr F
Benfica 1-0 95th min penalty…one of Mr Mileseys teams..wonder if he had a whack on/traded oot??
What the hell has rafa got to do with liverpool now? Your livin in the past mate. He left yrs ago-
You obviously don’t do sarcasm Alex?
Never mind only 26 points behind us again this season mate! Good night!! ;0)
zenit will defo win liverpool are as good as out
Think yer right Gunner…over and OOOOT!!! No hearing from Mr Milesey tonight…must be busy counting hiz winnings! :-)
We will see gunner! We will see!
