MONDAY was a no-bet day for me and while it's boring there's no point in losing money for the sake of it.
It will be different story on Tuesday with six Champions League qualifiers and 15 Betfred Cup ties as well as games throughout the continent as well two more women's Euro finals matches.
I've posted a Betfred Cup preview and put up my usual moneyback fivefold which has seen one win, one loss and one void in three rounds.
In the Champions League games include Qarabag v Sheriff, AEK Athens v CSKA Moscow, Partizan Belgrade v Olympiakos and Vardar v Copenhagen.
The Vardar game is an interesting one as the Macedonians beat Malmo 4-2 to on aggregate in the previous round. After a 1-1 draw in Sweden they triumphed 3-1 at home although home was Strumica and tonight they'll be back in their own ground in Skopje so that's a boost.
Copenhagen have some injury concerns and have played just two games in the league – winning one and drawing the other. I don't think a side who beat Malmo should be 4-1 at home and I'm backing Vardar draw no bet at 12-5 with William Hill, bet365 and McBookie.
Well done to everyone who found a winner on Monday and I've now added a Betfred Cup goals treble while Greg has also posted tips from the tournament.

Good luck all
I’ve tweaked my bet a little and opted for over 8 corners and over 1.5 tmg’s in the Sau Paulo v Gremio game. Pays just over evens.
Any pre season tips? Are you going to run a post for your thoughts
I’ve been drawn in to Gremio also but feel like the bookies know something we don’t, as its not long into the game and they’re 8/11 just to score?
Isn’t stranraer playing livingstone mr F?
Yeah it’s say in the write-up. Fixed the tips.
Exactly , cheers
Gremio score just as I predicted ???
For those who missed my tip – ??????
*** PLEASE NOTE: – Get on Gremio OVER 1.5 TEAM GOALS now in-play at 5/6 ***
*** São Paulo v Gremio – Brazil Serie A – Kick Off: – 12am – GREMIO OVER 1.5 TEAM GOALS – 2/1 @ Bet365 ***
It’s second place São Paulo v Gremio who don’t look very pretty sitting currently in 18th place.
The hosts have conceeded atleast 2 goals in 4 of there last 5 games. Gremio however are not shy of hitting a few themselves having scored three goals in there last two matches.
2/1 for Gremio to score two goals tonight is my MAIN TIP for you all. Good luck – Let’s bash them bookies.
I don’t often post on here, but follow some great tipsters. Hullshaker being one of them (Keep it up mate)
When I do see a potential winner, sharing my tip with you all is a pleasure. Maybe the bookies have priced this wrong, but it’s worth a punt at 2/1 without a doubt.
Come on now….Gremio, let’s get them two goals your well capable of doing ????
Seen it mate, appreciate the heads up on it but played it safe as per above, saw my little evens double come in after 75 mins, 2 goals and 9 corners sorted me for the night.
Just ran out of steam on that one mate. FYI, I’ve noticed as I watched the corners pile in, bet365 are crediting corners given just prior to the whistle, even though it appears they’ve not been taken. Its occurred on the last few matches I’ve seen when ones been awarded. They used to only credit the corner if it was awarded AND taken. Ref’s are ONLY supposed to allow play to carry on past allocated injurytime for penalties only. Nothing else. But then again, it takes a very brave ref to blow the whistle on a game when a team is right on the cusp of scoring . ie, dangerous attack/freekick etc.

Good work mate. Will keep an eye on the corner markets. I did large stake on OVER 0.5 goals and got it at 1/7.
I also covered for a tidy profit when gremio scored ?
My last 5 tips have all delivered, so going for a 6th on the bounce.
Yes, its a friendly, yes its on Derby to beat Northampton away tonight @ 10/11 but we’ve had an excellent pre-season and there have been many changes to how we have gone about our build-up.
I’ll try to keep it brief and stick to the facts:
Derby sold Hughes and Ince, along with Christie ( right wing back ). We’ve replaced Christie with Andre Wisdom who is a more flat back 4. Forsyth on the other side is back from injury and is having a great pre-season. We needed to trim the squad, we still do and midfield is an area where we have some great players but not enough presence/dominance. We brought in Huddlestone ( who we sold to Spurs ages back ), he’s now very much matured and is giving us that ” I’m taking the ball off you ” mentality. He also has a great long pass in him. Martin is back and scoring up front and last Saturday, Bent did his hamstring in taking a penalty in a game against 2nd tier Bundesliga Kaiserslautern – we won 2 nil but it should of been more flattering. Bent out till xmas. Oh well, we have lots of attacking options up front including Nugent, Weimann, Anya, Vydra. Thorne is still a good month from resuming training, I’m sure he’ll be wrapped in cotton wool until September/October.
We’ve won all pre-season matches this year apart from a draw 1-1 away to Doncaster, it was a night when we sent 2 teams out playing 2 sides at the same time. Port Vale were the other. Martin is on the goals, set pieces seem to be improving and this match away to Northampton is the penultimate friendly.
The team know that some of them won’t be Derby players much longer and that will give them extra impetus to impress the boss.
We’re out to win this game to build some momentum for when we face off against Sunderland for the opening game and the players on the shortlist to leave the club are running out of matches to keep their shirts.
We’re not yet the finished article, we still have some niggles to tweak and the boss is not afraid to get rid of big names if it improves the squad. He’s looking for more central midfield dominance and a rigid back line. It is likely that 4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3 will be our main 2 formations this year.
10/11 Rams win against Northampton with bet365 is top drawer and hopefully, should see a great chance to make it 6 solid tips on the bounce. I’d like to see a clean sheet, but if we go a few goals clear, we might even let one in for the opposition to savour the moment. But I’m steering clear of over complicating this.
I’m also avoiding corners and cards until I see some consistency.
I did say I’d share if I saw something worth sharing.
Keep it simple guys. Best of luck.
Also forgot to mention, pre-season holidays were cut short by 2 weeks and the squad were all given a ” holiday ” fitness/diet programme. We were back in full training a full 2 weeks before the majority of teams up and down the country, so we are about at match fitness – nice and early.
Good write-up – makes me want to back Derby even if it’s a friendly.
Bossing the stats but 1 nil down. 15 mins to play to salvage it.

Chelsea to win at 2/1 backed this even without seeing team news as you would expect the english champions to go strong,even if Bayern go strong the champions should be beating them or not losing at least,its been a poor showing the last few years from the premier league’s elite clubs got a feeling that is all about to change.I think we are well overdue a european cup winner and it would be good to see an all english final this year.

For anyone backing Hibernian tonight I can see the temptation, great odds for goals for Scotlands second best team but as I said last time it’s only a pre-season warm up
Got to agree with Lenny, against Ross County we were outstanding, there was a massive gulf in class
Tonight will see another makeshift team but hopefully Olly Shaw will get a full game as he is our missing piece of the jigsaw
We have the second best squad in Scotland but with probably the best group of youngsters

Scotlands second best team
Evening gents,
Posting from tropical Filey and not sure the interweb has penetrated this far into Yorkshire so here goes…
UTC CAJAMARCA VS. UNIÓN COMERCIO (2130 KO):
Tight affair in the Peruvian top-flight with only 6 points seperating these two who sit 4th and 11th respectively…seems no single team wants to break free of the pack and that may play into the punter’s hands.
There have been 3 or more goals in 10 of Comercio’s last 13 games whilst Cajamarca have seen the same in 4 of their own last 7 but perhaps more notably, in 70% of their last 10 home games.
7/10 with 365 and 4/6 with Coral for Over 2.5 MGS which tempts but I’m siding with a better price for both to score given the two 2016 H2H’s ran out 1-1 draws.
BTTS…19/20

Best of luck ?

With no live coverage, just written live updates, just going back through the match, Derby have been very wasteful in the final 1/3. Big chances missed and the biggest culprit being Nugent who’s effort was ever to slightly off target ( out of the ground ).
Typical, I ignore all the pre-season matches, then see consistency, then drop my bet on my own team brimming with confidence and we get undone on 20 mins by Northampton.
Apologies guys, no 6th tip on the bounce. I shall start my hunt again.
No worries – always beware of friendlies.
Can’t believe the result derby are the fittest side in the world and have an amazing midfield…. Why poor old forest beat a side going to be in the same league as Barcelona and Real Madrid this year…. it must be cobblers! Oh that’s right league one Northampton.???

I’m sure everyone who puts an acca on, gets that sixth sense that they know what team will bugger it up, yet you still put it on.
My head was screaming at me to leave Hearts out, yet I went with it.
I give Cathro 10 league games before he gets the boot…
No excuses – they can’t be losing to Peterhead.
Great stuff tonight Mr F ?
Although its a friendly I like Tottenham at evens to pick up where they left off, after beating PSG in Orlando 4-2.
All bets lost, fingers burned.
Sticking to mls until the real season starts.
Sorry my Motherwell/Corners bet won which brings the loss down for the night.

Thanks for the tips Greg – some goals in Scotland tonight. Hard lines for anyone who had the Dumbarton game – there’s always one

BET 2 I am still on the Brazilian seria B
ABC VS BRASIL DE PELOTAS. Brasil have conceded in their last & league matches and conceding 27 goals this season ABC on the other hand have conceded in their last 14 league games and have conceded 24 goals this season sitting 4 places under brasil who are a better team goin forward. My safest bet for this match is goin to be over 0.5 H/T goal. alternatively home team not to kip a clean sheet . Gd luck
Night Owl and a touch of Copa SudAmerica action…
CHAPECOENSE VS. DEFENSA Y JUSTICIA (2315 KO):
Totally going against the general concensus here and backing goals with lower stakes – I understand the bookies high pricing but just suspect this 2nd leg won’t emulate the narrow 0-1 1st outing.
Chape can’t afford to play a closed shop set-up and always carry a threat up top as do the Argentine visitors.
Two selections to consider with the latter being ultra-speculative but a huge price in a competition that very often sees early goals:
