RESULTS on Sunday weren't great and I doff my hat to anyone who won with more than singles or doubles.
Not many would have backed defeats for Man City, Juventus and Real Madrid and the two in Italy and Spain beat my Super Single.
City not scoring downed the both to score treble and shock results for Lyon and Nice completed a full house of losses on the Top Treble.
While I had a disappointing day after a couple of good ones Jordan and Greg both saw their main bets win so well done to them.
My best shout was suggesting RB Leipzig -1 at 10-11 to beat Rangers if they fielded a strong team and they did as they won 4-0.
Monday's fairly quiet with no UK senior games and one in Italy as Torino entertain AC Milan. In Spain it's Malaga v Sociedad.
Ivory Coast take on Togo and DR Congo face Morocco at AFCON where three of the first four games have been score draws.
I said I couldn't pick a scorer between Riyad Mahrez and Islam Slimani yesterday and it was Mahrez who hit a double as Algeria were surprisingly held 2-2 by Zimbabwe and later Liverpool's Sadio Mane netted first in Senegal's 2-0 win against Tunisia.
Having looked closely at today's games I've decided to go with just a Top Treble. Braga, who have dropped two points at home, seem the safest bet on the coupon at home to bottom dogs Tondela and a best price of 2-5 at Stan James is tempting.
To them I'm adding both to score at Torino and Malaga. The last four meetings between Torino and AC have seen both score and Torino have netted 21 in nine home outings this season. Milan though are favourites here and should score even though. They've netted just two in four games but they were against three of the top six and improving Cagliari.
Malaga's new boss Marcelo Romero makes his home debut in the dugout and his first job is to tighten up the defence. That won't happen overnight and his first game ended in a 3-1 defeat at Celta Vigo.
Four of Malaga's last five have gone over 3.5 goals as have four of Real's last six. My only concern is if Sociedad, who have a doubt over striker Carlos Vela, play a weakened side ahead of Thursday's cup contest with Barcelona.
If they do rest players – and that's not been confirmed – Malaga should be taken at 38-25 with Marathonbet.
I like the Ivory Coast and wouldn't put people off adding them to the treble. However, three of the first four AFCON games have been draws with favourites Algeria and Gabon being held so there is potential for a surprise.
Ivory Coast are the holders and boast forwards such as Wilfried Bony, Jonathan Kodija, Salomon Kalou and Wilfried Zaha as well as Man Utd's Eric Bailly at the back. Togo's top man is Manny Adebayor and while Ivory Coast haven't been in good form they should win.
Pierre-Emerick Aubeyemang, Mahrez and Sadio Mane have been three of the first scorers out of four games so who's next. if he starts consider Bony at 4-1 with William Hill and others or Zaha at 6-1 at Paddy Power.

Purely Stat Based BTTS YES Treble
In La Liga, Malaga have scored in 7 of their 8 home games so far this season and entertain Sociedad, themselves finding the target in seven of their eight away matches so far. In the past year they’ve met three times and each game has gone YES.
Curzon Ashton, in the National League North, have a fine YES record (8/10 home games) and have conceded 23 goals in those ten games.
In the Dutch Eerste Divisie, Utrecht’s last five homes have seen YES while NAC Brada’s last 4 aways have seen them potting 9 and conceding 14, also with YES in all games.
Utrecht v NAC (7pm)
Curzon v Worcester (7.45pm)
Malaga v Sociedad (7.45pm)
BTTS YES (3/1 Coral)
Night Owl 2:
Quick post as this has just kicked off now…see if can’t end the day with a winner!
Mexico Segunda and that means goals…shedloads between the two and BTTS/OVERS rife in both team’s recent games…

Morning gents,
Relatively quiet card on Monday but there’s a few games that could well offer up a bit of value for the discerning punter.
My focus will be on the solitary match being played out in the National League North between the 16th and 17th placed sides…
CURZON ASHTON VS. WORCESTER CITY (19.45 KO:)
Forgive my crude figures as they may not be perfectly accurate but they’re about right: of the last 30 games played by ‘Nash, around 68% have seen both teams scoring.
Approximately 30% of those games have seen a remarkable BTTS & Over 3.5 goals home and hosed…some figure that!
Worcester – in their most recent 5 games – have managed to achieve a rare NLN feat…keep games under 3 goals and that is my one sticking point. To be fair, prior to that, goals were much freer and with a visit to CA’s Tameside Stadium, things ought to revert back to normal.
The last 3 H2Hs featured 3-4-4 goals – all coming in games that saw BTTS & OVERS broached and two of the three being BTTS & OVER 3.5 goals.
Four selections to consider:
BTTS…1/2
????
OVER 1.5 FHGS…6/4
??
OVER 3.5 MGS…29/20
???
BTTS BOTH HALVES…8/11
?
Good luck with all bets

Probably fairly popular picks on a quiet card.
Breda Over 1.5 Team Goals
Braga Over 1.5 Team Goals
8/5 @ Betway – 2.5 points
Sound like a pair of twin prostitutes you’d pick up in eastern Europe. (Exclude that from the write up if you wish).
Mr O posted about Breda the other night and I had already flagged them up for today. They face a Utrecht youth side who like our good friend Oss, have been decent for goals this season. Breda have been naff away from home recently but they are the much better side here and should put a couple past the reserves. Recently signed the young prospect from Manchester City, Manu Garcia on loan.
Braga face bottom feeders Tondela who have conceded 2+ in 6 of their last 8, and 6 of their 8 away games (3 in their last 3 away). Braga have scored 2+ in 6 of their last 7 at home.
Cyriel Dessers leads Breda with 11 goals this season, has scored in his last two and in the 4-1 reverse tie.
Cyriel Dessers (Breda) Anytime @ 11/10 @ 888Sport – 2.5 points
Good luck with Breda and Braga…nearly spat my tea out when I read that ??
After yesterdays mishap im hoping for a clearcut Braga win tomorrow against bottom of the table Tondela that boast the worst away record in the division. Braga are very strong on there home patch winning 7 out of there 8 home games and should find tomorrows fixture fairly comfortable. Braga are averaging 2.5 team goals in there home fixtures and I expect more of the same (if not more) against lifeless Tondela. Think ive found a spot of value past the 4/9 offered for the straight Braga WIN.

Same to you mate, only game that really took my fancy when digging for value through the card. If all goes as planned, should have some tidy profit at the end of the night but anything can happen in football. Id be entirely flabbergasted if this finished 1-0 to Braga and thoughts of Tondela coming away with anything haven’t even entered my mind.

Good morning gents, some nice selections above which i think i will look into for tonight. As for some afternoon entertainment at work then head to Kuwait where the top two play each other in the cup final. Just started work so a quick short write up.
The game originally scheduled for christmas day changed, for reasons unknown, i was looking forward to it then as i was working christmas day and it would of been a nice christmas bonus.
So what should we expect from todays final? Both teams are able to beat each other but Al Kuwait are in better form coming into this game. As we all know form counts for nothing but when the two come together goals are normally expected.
They have had one meeting against each other this season which finished 2-2.
Al Qadsia v Al Kuwait (Kuwait Crown Prince Cup Final, 14:50KO)
Both Teams To Score + Over 2.5 goals – 20/21 – 2pts
Prices are dropping on Braga / Breda games so have locked in the following before the odds shorten further later in the day
Breda should win and can see the reasoning behind selections for goals for them but Utrecht youth like a goal at home too so hopefully both will have their shooting boots on tonight and see the O2.5

Anyone care to tell me why zakalou are 9-2 ??.
If anyone can’t fill me in, I will be on double chance and dnb.
They are both as bad as each other from what form I can find.
yes thats a mystery, as you say, both in rank bad form, too big a discrepancy not to have DC at least?
zakakiou ahead very early on, hopefully a very good spot there elvis!
bookies still making limassol favorites tho!!
well 2-0&7mins gone,looks a great spot but loads of time to go
2-1 ahead now, after going 2-0 up, and still the bookies make away team favourites
2-0 now !!!!!!?

Malaga V Real Sociedad O1.5 Match Goals
Sporting Braga O1.5 Team Goals
11/10
There was a penalty awarded in the two African cup games yesterday and i am going for much the same today
a penalty to be awarded in Ivory Coast v Togo game and the D.R Congo v Morocco game, i am adding one to be awarded in the Malaga v Sociedad game for a trixie. 7/2 . 4/1. 11/4. @ Williamhill.
Malaga V Real Sociedad
Malaga have seen BTTS in 5/5 of their last home games, with 4/5 going over 3.5 mgls. Sociedad have scored in their last 5 aways, 3 seeing BTTS. Can’t see any team news to dissuade me that this is good value, but any input welcome. Last 3 H2H have seen both score, but the games were a while back so it’s of limited interest. I’ll split my main stake between BTTS and o2.5, with a little on the double. Good luck all!
O2.5 mgls @ Evens
BTTS @ 4/5
BTTS and overs @ 13/10
Saw a piece saying Sociedad would rest players ahead of cup game with Barca on Thursday but don’t know how accurate that was.
If it’s true Malaga are a good bet.
Thanks for info MrF – I think Malaga will probably sneak it but they have conceded in something like 9 out of 10 home games, so I reckon BTTS has a really good chance. Nice to see we are on the same page – I’ll be on the treble…..good luck!
Doesn’t look like Malaga are going to score.
Could just about have covered the stake 10 or 15 minutes ago but I was still out.
Anyway it’s only 1.1pts so fingers crossed.
Malaga, Torino, Utrecht BTTS 3.6/1

Good morning guys,
I will be in Glasgow in the last weekend of January. We will go to the Celtic game on Sunday, but we are also looking for some entertainment on Saturday afternoon. Our plan was to visit the Motherwell v Rangers game, but unfortunately there is no matchday and online sale. I saw there are some games in the area like Kilmarnock v Ross County, St Mirren v Falkirk, Ayr v Morton
Can one of you Scottisch guys give me some advice? What is a good ground/game to visit that Saturday?
Hi mate you should be able to pick up Motherwell v Rangers tickets for the home end as they never sell out. This would be the best game to attend for quality and entertainment.
As has been said you should be able to get Motherwell v Rangers tickets.
I’ll see if Ladbrokes have any spare freebies but their allocation might have gone.
Of the games you mention I’d say Ayr v St Mirren simply because you’ll have a better day out down there than going to Kilmarnock or Paisley.
If you are in Glasgow the St Mirren game is closest and should be a decent game.
I’ll be at Maryhill v Clydebank in Glasgow – that’s Scotland’s equivalent of the National League I suppose.
Not sure what you’d make of that but there is a bar and it costs a fiver to get in.
Email me at mrfixit@dailyrecord.co.uk re the Motherwell tickets and I’ll see if there are any comps left. Also tell me how many you need.
Thanks for your advice Nazalus, that’s the plan for the rest of the trip J
@fraser51 I phoned the Motherwell ticket office. But it’s only possible to get tickets at the ticket office in person, prior to the game. We are arriving on Saturday morning and they are closed on matchday, because it’s an all ticket game.
Thanks for your answer Mr F. I don’t think I can get the rest of the guys to a national league type of game. I will send you an e-mail
OK, on the email tell me how many you need.
There is also a chance I could speak to someone at Motherwell who under the circumstances can take your order and leave you tickets somewhere.
That would be great Mr F. I have send the e-mail
OK, have emailed Ladbrokes and Motherwell – will let you know if I have any luck.
Norwich U23 v Fulham U23 Over 2.5 match goals…. Thoughts guys?????
Was close to tipping it but the Aston villa u21 game looks way better for goals tonight, have a look.

Fiorentina vs Juventus:
Bet To Consider – Juventus Over 1.5 goals
This line is offered with wrong odds IMO…direct away win is priced at 1.85 while we get this odds for Juventus to score twice and i take this one with high confidence…Guests started the year with two wins…3-0 at home against Bologna and 3-1 in cup match against Atalanta…they play with Dybala Higuain duo upfront supported by Pjanic and that is some trouble for any opposition…But importnat factor also for this bet is problems Juventus have in defence…Alex Sandro should have recovered from his injury, but Massimiliano Allegri might not want to rush his return. This, combined with Patrice Evra probable departure, Stephan Lichtsteiner’s suspension and Dani Alves’ injury, will mean Allegri has some tough decisions to make in both full-back positions. Medhi Benatia and Mario Lemina are away at the Africa Cup of Nations…This IMO gives Fiorentina higher chances to score at least once and i dont see guests winning this 0-1 so i had intensions to back Juventus and will take the line with higher odds and covering more different scenarios like 2-2… Fiorentina does not impress this season but at home they are able to play solid enough football against any opposition and especially in attack…Napoli was forced to find injury time equalaiser to take most recent 3-3 draw here…Nikola Kalinic is still rumored to be in talks with a Chinese club, but he played in the Coppa Italia and should feature here as well… H2H shows that in last two seasons Juvetus won here 2-1 and 3-0 and now also most logical outcome i see here is 1-2 for guests but even if this match goes crazy we will have nice chances to cover this line…
***** LOST *****
Lazio vs Atalanta :
Bet To Consider – Lazio to Win
I expect some tired legs from Atalanta after the 3-2 against Juventus in the Italian Cup. 3rd match in one week, without Gagliardini (transfer to Inter) and Kessie (African Cup) 2 very important ball winning midfielders. Lazio are a good value for this.
*** WON ***
Cagliari vs Genoa :
Bet To Consider – Double Chance Cagliari
I can’t understand this odds in favor of Genoa. Cagliari present fairly solid at home with only 2 losses in 9 games.
Genoa are at the other side with only 1 draw and 5 losses in their last six visits. The Griffins made two very serious sales that will inevitably shaken the team. Pavoletti was sold to Napoli and Rincon goes to Juventus.

It’s a grey day in the North so I’m looking for a bit of inspiration and a mid-afternoon trip over to the Middle-East…
AL QADSIA VS. AL KUWAIT (14.50 KO):
3rd place plays 1st place here and with both teams in sparkling form, we could see a decent game with the promise of goals
Al Qadsia have drawn two, lost one and won their opening 10 games with the majority of games averaging 2-3 team goals.
Al Kuwait’s form is even sharper: the same number of wins, one loss and two draws but a much better g/d. They have scored a similar number (2-3) in most games but have hit 4, 5 and even 9 in one game alone.
Three selections to consider:
BTTS & OVER 2.5 MGS…4/5
???
BTTS 1ST HALF…11/4
??
BTTS BOTH HALVES…9/1
?
Good luck
?
just getting on btts and overs pal. Good luck had picked this one out for btts myself so happy for overs combined
Mr Hull glad you are joining me, Kuwait is a fav league on mine to bet on.
The leagues top two teams will hopefully provide us with goals.
Only downside possible is it’s a cup final.
Sorry Frastar…totally pinched your game without so much as a name-check- had only read from bottom of thread before posting so hadn’t seen yours.
Good luck sir – on the plus side, we’ve both picked it out independently (and Hampy) so bodes well.
PS – if they lose, it’s all your fault ???
I’ll take the full blame, it is a cup final though so hopefully not much caution and they go for it, they both love a goal.
Noticed kick off delayed by 30mins
You may be right with that downside, fraser. Went over 1.5 mgs first half but nothing doing so far with ’41 gone.
Have sent @admin an email that is fairly urgent @mr-fixit. Just wondering if you could give them a nudge. Cheers.
Yeah will do.
Sorted. Cheers.
Main stakes on the Braga game have been tipped by others, but I also think the folowing offer value and will put a bit on some of them:
Braga exactly 1 fhgl @ 6/4
I’m edging towards Fonte for this one, but any input is much appreciated:
Fonte to outscore the oposition @ 13/5
Eduardo to outscore the oppostion @ 7/2
Horta to outscore the opposition @ 7/2
I also quite like Braga to win to nil but many people don’t like that bet.
Mixed 7-fold:
Everton U23 vs Reading U23 – over 2.5 MG’s
Congo DR vs Morroco – over 0.5 FHG’s
Malaga vs Real Sociedad – over 2.5 MG’s
Malaga vs Real Sociedad – over 4.5 first half Asian corners
Wurzburger Kickers vs FC Vaduz – over 2.5 MG’s (15:00 friendly)
Ivory Coast vs Togo – over 4.5 first half Asian corners
Torino vs AC Milan – over 2.0 goal line
43/1 Bet365
Good luck all
Afternoon gents
Yesterday made it 7 NAPs from 10 in 2017 and overall it’s been a really good start to the year!
Nothing taking my fancy today and couldn’t see anything from
The friendlies so it’s a No bet day from me
Good luck to everyone with their bets ??
NAPTASTIC ?
Nice percentage ratio there. A no-bet day is never a bad day.
Afternoon Matrix, hope you are well pal.
Agree about potential in the Villa U23 game tonight but one game screams ‘goal-fest’ louder than any other for me…
EVERTON U23 VS. READING U23:
The most recent H2H back in October finished with 9 goals (6-3) and there has been plenty more in both teams’ recent games to back it up.
In fact, 3 of Reading’s last 4 have seen a stonking 6 match goals!
Don’t want to tempt fate but this one has the potential to be a little goldmine and prices look way too big…
Sensible stakes but I’ll be on the following:
OVER 3.5 MGS…27/20
????
OVER 4.5 MGS…3/1
??
OVER 5.5 MGS…7/1
?
BTTS 1ST HALF…10/3
??
BTTS BOTH HALVES…11/1
?
Good luck ?
Good right up hull lad,que the 0-0 lol
Haha Macca – won’t be the first time that’s happened…noticed Everton’s U23 play out at Southport?
Yeah they do but also play at finch farm it varies.
There having a new ground built especially for the youths until then they keep playing where they are.
What website for prices? 365 only got O2.5 this now
Fraser…limited on 365 but Coral have 47 markets inc goals ?
Prices already been cut
O3.5 – 6/5 – 2pts
O4.5 – 27/10 – 1pt
Just want to post a bet up for the weekend,i know its early but imo its an absolute no brainer
Man City v Spurs
Spurs to win at 13/5 this price surely will not last and spurs should rightly be favourites for this game,i expected man city to get beat yesterday as Everton have picked up and are in some good form especially at home not many top sides go there and get anything (only Liverpool who are over hyped),anyway back to spurs if anyone can give me a reason why spurs should not thrash man city i am willing to listen but i expect the money to be pouring in on spurs and city will get hammered imo spurs are solid defensively and as good as or better than most going forward.
Looks a good shout – it’s such a big price you can look at Spurs draw no bet too or Spurs to score 2+.
They will hammer man city mr f unless city suddenly become good defensively which i cannot see.Big big price
Nothing’s that certain no matter how poor City were.
Spurs have only won four away from home and City have lost just once away.
That’s why I’d keep the draw on side.
Not a bad spot. I think come the weekend the bookies would probably view it towards a draw. I’d definitely look at Spurs to net at least twice if you can get similar value.
I have stuck 50 on straight win for spurs just cannot see what pep can do to stop them in this form city are at a very low ebb the pressure is on them and yaya is to slow for the likes of ali and kane.
Tonight is a deliberation of over 2.5 goals or BTTS accumulators as I can’t seem to get both of them combined. I’ve decided to go with the latter as the bookies are giving me slightly better odds and stats wise there are more likely to be a 1-1 than a 3-0 for these three games.
BTTS Treble:
Jong v Breda (Dutch), 19.00
Curzon Ashton v Worcester, 19.45
Torino v AC Milan, 19.45
2.8/1
Betway
I believe I’ve spotted a bit of value in the African Cup of Nations:
Ivory Coast v Togo, 16.00
BTTS and over 2.5 goals
9/4
Coral
Ivory Coast should prevail but it should be recognised that traditionally defences and sometimes irrational goalkeeping is a major weak point at these competitions. When odds of this price become available it should definitely be backed. We’ve had one clean sheet in four in the opening two days and theres no reason why we can’t expect similar drama today.
40 or more booking points in the DR .Congo v Morocco game is 11/10 @ skybet.
Ivory Coast v Togo
SkyBet request a bet
BTTS, each team 4+ corners ans 20+ booking points each team @ 20/1
This is usually between 4/1 – 8/1 for most games. Chucked a couple of quid on it, and also Btts & 3+ corners each @ 3/1
In-play:
Ivory Coast (Win and Under 3.5 mtch goals) 19/20
Surely got a good chance?
Also to win and under 2.5 is 9/5
A 1-0 or 2-0 looks the likeliest outcome to me?
Good luck all today!
Bloody Nora – this Kuwati game is drier than Ghandi’s flip-flop. 0-0 with 30′ to play ?
Stats count for alot but sometimes instinct is best, cup final, tight game, one goal to win it.
This has to be one of the worst refereeing performances in the Ivory Coast game. He’s stopping for everything and not giving the game a chance.
Watched some of it – looks to be one of the worst games ever.
With all that talent though how can’t Ivory Coast score?
That’s 4 0-0 draws in their last 6 games now.
That alone was a warning that goals could be in short supply
They’ve not been in great form but it’s the tournament finals, they’re the holders and should be ready.
Can’t win it on that showing. I’m off to walk the dug in disgust.
Hate to say but wouldn’t be surprised if that game was rigged. A couple of occasions a player went through and appeared to trip himself up. Very few attempts on goal (can’t recall any on target) and a very bizarre refereeing performance where if a player touched another player he brought it back (even when the team who was allegedly fouled had the ball). I was looking forward to the AFCON and even watched the end of the Morrocco game where they were playing the last ten minutes plus six minutes of stoppage time against 9 and a half men and barely created anything. Shocking, shocking showing by a lot of the sides so far. I certainly won’t be placing any more bets on it.
My treble also failed with Jung Utrecht missing a penalty and failing to net at home for the first time this season which cost me my BTTS treble..Disappointing night.
@hullshaker hahahaha
I also lost heavy on it
Evening Kieran, no heavy losses here but still a disapointing game.
The btts 1st half and both halves were always speculative hence the 1/5 and 2/5 confidence rating but did think, like Fraser and Hampy, the Btts & Over looked good.
Shot or two at redemption tonight…on we go – good luck pal.
you shouldnt be laughing buddy?,you should really bet level stakes as no bet is guaranteed,also stake accordingly as some leaugues throw up funny results

@mr-orange if you are unable to get tickets for motherwell v rangers I can highly recommend a trip to paisley for the Falkirk game, close to Glasgow and ground close by both train stations on the direct line from Glasgow central, st james station is rite outside the ground, my local the Alamo bar is the closest pub to the ground and owned by my mates father in law and is well attended before and after matches also lays on traditional scotch pies for the supporters, quite an unusual pub as is done out like a Mexican cantina with cowboy hats, tomahawks, bow and arrows etc behind the gantry (always thought that a bit risky in a paisley bar lol) more than happy to meet you there for a pint and introduce you to the locals………….
@mr-fixit how dare you recommend Ayr over paisley as a better day out……….. lol
7 Party invites to politely decline:
1. Hannibal Lecter’s Mixed grill BBQ.
2. Charles Manson’s country barn dance.
3. Blue Oyster ‘fun night’
4. Henry V111’s Wife Swap night
5. Dom77’s Charity Race Night
6. Joseph Fritzezl’s basement party
7. Craneguy’s Mexican themed ‘Scotch Pie/Glasgow kiss’ pub invite “its got axes on the wall…you’ll love it”
Be afraid Mr O…be very afraid ?
Haha that’s some list Hullshaker!
Worked many moons ago in Paisley and Ayr so I should know.
Had my car nicked in Paisley but not in Ayr. That’s how I judge it – also better golf courses down that way.
Cheers @craneguy if we decide to go to the St Mirren game I will let you know!
I hope they don’t have Mexican food, because I will need some icecubes when having a s*** the next day
It’s Paisley – they don’t have anything quite as exotic.
You will get a botulism supper though.
Fonte ags 9/4

Was so bad haha defender awful attempt at clearance on the floor straight to the striker, keep we grts a limp hand on it and it goes in

Well done lad !
Cheers kyle b
Thought it would be a little safer going for 1.5 match goals instead of the 2.5 i usually go for…….
Well done man!
Has been quite tough for goals recently
Great work seamus – well done pal..the over 1.5 market is a cracker to double and treble up ?
Am starting to believe ovr last few weeks and especially tday where the bookys hav cleaned up AGAIN.that the ovr 1.5 match goals is the way ahead.short odds u do need to risk a few games but the way footys been of late tryn to get evn 3 games going ovr 2.5 is fr very little reward and SOO DIFFICULT TO LAND. Wel done Seamus ur in a rare position of managing to beat the bookie lol.
By far the safest market in anticipation of goals and covers so many avenues.
@robbie c, you have to drop games more often. Nice analysis and I’m a proud winner courtesy of you..???
hull, very, very cheeky fae ye am ragin…………
mr f, yer motor tanned in paisley na never lol……………….
crane, how’s the new car going? ?
Aye, the fossils among us will remember XR2s. Cracking little car but after I got it back I couldn’t afford the insurance because of the claim and to trade it in for a bloody Vauxhall Nova.
remember them well mr f loved ma fast fords back in the day and a few got nicked too had them all from a mk1 rs3100 capri throo to sierra cosworths far too many to list on a betting forum

Well done again mate, nice double!
Nice one Damo!
Cheers Hull! On your u20s game, good luck!
The Night Owl sees me in Brasil as we enter the final stages of the Youth Tournament and it’s well worth reflecting that for the most part, games have been pretty good money-spinners and well worthy of a place in the notebook for 2018.
Tonight’s game sees two of the more established youth set-ups come face to face and that affords us a rare extended insight into how the teams may fare against one another…
CORINTHIANS U20 VS. INTERNACIONAL U20 (22.00 KO):
At times it’s a pointless excercise to attempt to glean information from H2Hs but in other situations, it shouldn’t be ignored.
These two have met 6 times within the calender year 2016 with the following match goals: 5-3-3-1-2-7 – it is also worth noting that in 50% of these games, both teams found the back of the net!
Worth having a look in more detail to see how each side have performed within the 5 tournament games so far below is a list of match goals and team goals for each game, the latter being denoted by brackets:
COR: 6-4-5-5-3 (6-4-3-5-2)
IND: 2-5-4-6-1 (2-5-3-6-1)
So, it’s clear both teams are able to score goals but this one will come down to the sharper defensive set-up – the bookies favour Corinthians but I’ve a feeling that both sides will play a part in what ought to be a cracker!
Four selections to consider:
OVER 2.5 MGS…4/6
???
BTTS…4/7
????
BTTS 1ST HALF…3/1
??
BTTS BOTH HALVES…10/1
?
Best of luck

One for the morrow.
Besart Berisha (Melbourne Victory) Anytime @ 7/5 @ PP – 2.5 points
Was sent off on the weekend but had it overturned. Six in his last four against the Phoenix including a hat-trick in the 6-1 thumping in October. Marco Rojas scored twice with two assists in that one, but Besart will take the penalties, which is more likely to happen when you mismatches like this. The Victory have Wellingtons number, and even though Krishna returns from suspension, they’ll do well to beat a side who are chasing Sydney FC at the top after their draw on the weekend.
Ooft…bit harsh that Mr F – 2017 City of Culture don’t you know.
Shouldn’t laugh but the yoof of Hull were up to no good on the weekend – managed to change one of the big ‘Hull – City of Culture’ signs into ‘Hull – City of Vultures’ ?
Crane, I’ll have you know this ankle jewellery is ‘de rigeur’ in Hull – big hit with the ladies and can open my bottles of Stella with it now the teeth have gone…
?
Glasgow was City of Culture too – they’ll give in to anyone these days.

U not fancy Melbourne for the win Jordan ?
Hello folks. Braga match stuffed me tonight.
Tomorrow morning in Australia sees Wellington Phoenix v Melbourn Victory.
Or as the A league’s website says “Berisha v Smeltz” The leagues top and second top scorers in history. Berisha plays for Victory and scored a hat-trik the last time these teams met. It was 6-1 to Melbourn (home). Regular scorer and an odds against 10/11 any time.
Wellington now have a new coach and have only one defeat in their last 6, against table toppers perth 2-1. They have failed to score once in a 0-0 draw with Adelaide (90 booking points)
The bets.
The temporary lay bet is bookings.
Ill check free kick stats for the first half as that is usually a better indicator as to what will happen in the second half. Plus the odds are always much tastier. Often one first half booking can end in over 60 points due to the reff having had enough and any followers of the league know that reds are also common depending on the reff. ( Kris Griffiths-Jones ) just over 50points per match average. And a red in over a third of his games.
60+ booking points is only evens as i write this. Red is 2/1 or a second half red is a more apealing 3/1 should you fancy a pop.
Both Berisha v Smeltz to score is 4/1 1 point
Btts is a poultry 1/2 but Phoenix like an early goal of late so im taking btts in the first half at 11/4
1 point
Due to the above reasoning Victory to win from behind is 9/1 which i cant ignore. 0.5 point
Other bets at lower odds on those markets should help out with accas or big hitters but i’ve tried to find some reasoned value.
Skybet didnt offer the acca which is fair doos i suppose. Hopefully the write up helps whether you want to try my bets or not. Good luck with tomorrows gambling folks ?
Melbourne. Appologies?
