Selectabet’s 210-1 Correct Score Treble Tips
It's international week so that can only mean one thing; Selectabet is back with his correct score treble bets, which this time round could pay a huge 210/1!
June 10: World Cup Betting Preview
NORTHERN IRELAND continue to impress under Michael O'Neill and now they have a goal machine in the shape of Liam Boyce. The Premiership's top scorer raised his profile even more with the winner in last week's friendly against New Zealand and is set to start with James Ward and...
June 10: Scotland v England Betting Preview
SCOTLAND must beat the Auld Enemy to keep their World Cup hopes alives but could face a Kaning. I'd love to tip a win for Gordon Strachan's side – or even a draw – but my heart says we're not good enough. My two main reasons for pessimism are:...
Selectabet’s 365-1 Correct Score Treble Tips
THERE'S one last hurrah for the football season this weekend as World Cup qualifying takes centre stage and as ever I'm looking for an international correct score treble to finish the season in style. Those of you who follow me on these type of bets will know my modus...
Mar 26: England v Lithuania Betting Preview
ENGLAND don't have any worries about World Cup qualification and should sweep aside Lithuania with the minimum of ease. The Baltic nation will come to Wembley looking for a point and may be difficult to break down. To win the home men are no bigger than 1-8 at bet365 but...
Mar 26: Scotland v Slovenia Betting Preview
IT'S D-Day for Scotland who must beat Slovenia at home or write off yet another qualifying campaign after just five games. Gordon Strachan's men have taken just one point from nine and are uneasy favourites to win at Hampden against a side unbeaten in seven. Slovenis have started Group F well...
Mar 25-26: Selectabet’s International Correct Score Tips
IT'S World Cup qualifying time so that can only mean one thing – another go at backing the minnows to be beaten without them scoring. It's my only bet when these fixtures come around, simply because it's the best value to be found. The gap between the smaller nations...
Mar 24: World Cup Betting Preview
WALES have turned into draw specialists since reaching the Euro 2016 finals. Chris Coleman's men have drawn their last three and a fourth is on the agenda when they face the Republic of Ireland in Dublin. A stalemate will suit the Irish after a barnstorming start to Group x....
Nov 12: World Cup Betting Preview
GARETH BALE’S reacted to his bumper pay rise with three goals in two games – and that’s good news for Wales. The Real Madrid star briefly became the world’s highest-paid player before Cristiano Ronaldo was handed a £500k-plus weekly deal. But when you play for Wales cash isn’t the...
Oct 7-8: Selectabet’s International Correct Score Tips – Members Only
BUT for Spain scoring two more than predicted against Liechtenstein Selectabet would have landed a spectacular 326-1 treble during the last round of World Cup qualifying fixtures so he's back again to give it another go in the hope that the minnows of UEFA take a beating once more…...
Sep 6: World Cup Betting Preview
I WON'T have many better World Cup nights with six out of seven winners and the other void on Monday's preview post. Hoping for a similar hit rate on Tuesday but of course it won't be easy. My recommended bets last night were Gareth Bale to scorem Serbia v Ireland...
Sep 5: World Cup Betting Preview
REMEMBER Euro 2016, remember Gareth Bale … remember how good he was. Bale was one of the stars of the tournament in Wales' amazing run to the semi-finals and will be expected to lead his men to Russia 2018. Wales kick off at home to Moldova tonight and are...
Sep 4: World Cup Group F Preview
IT seems as if we're still getting over Euro 2016 and now we're hit with the World Cup 2018 qualifiers. There are nine ties on Sunday in Groups C, D and F with F of course featuring England and Scotland. Scotland must kick off with a win in Malta...
Sep 4: Selectabet’s International Correct Score Tips – Members Only
INTERNATIONAL weekend always fills me with dread from a betting perspective but over the years I've found a way to make profit from these qualifying games. It involves backing against those international minnows who seldom get themselves on the scoresheet. The likes of San Marino, Andorra, Gibraltar and Liechtenstein,...
WORLD CUP 2018: BETTING LATEST
PUNTERS and bookies have time to digest the draw for the World Cup 2018 that was made on Saturday. After the initial fury among the Tartan Army at being paired with England comes the realisation Scotland have been handed a tough task to qualify for Russia. As well as...
JULY 13: WORLD CUP FINAL BETTING PREVIEW
IT'S been a marathon rather than a sprint but overall punters have fleeced the bookies even if it's been with the help of moneyback offers. Bet365 alone handed back £10 million after 10 0-0 draws and that stat is amazing when you consider the goal-laden start to the tournament....
JULY 12: BRAZIL v HOLLAND BETTING PREVIEW
I WOULDN'T normally back a side who'd just suffered a 7-1 bruising – and Germany admitted taking it easy in the second half – but I reckon Brazil will restore a bit of pride in Saturday night's third-place play-off against Holland. It's the game no one wants but Dutch...
JULY 9: HOLLAND v ARGENTINA BETTING PREVIEW
AFTER Germany's sensational 7-1 win against Brazil you have to wonder if Argentina and Holland want to face them in the Final. I know Brazil were poor but on that display the Germans will lift the trophy no matter who they face in Rio on Sunday. And they'll probably...
JULY 8: BRAZIL v GERMANY BETTING PREVIEW
IT'S down to the last four and the World Cup that couldn't stop giving at the start is determined to keep taking away. First up it's Brazil-Germany tonight followed by Argentina-Holland tomorrow and without wanting to sit on the fence it's clear both games could go either way. A...
JULY 5: HOLLAND v COSTA RICA BETTING PREVIEW
HOLLAND are the only short-priced favourites in the last eight – and that's understandable. The Dutch strolled through their group then survived a massive scare against Mexico when they needed two goals in the final few minutes to qualify. Next up it's shocktroops Costa Rica who have raised their...
JULY 4: BRAZIL v COLOMBIA BETTING PREVIEW
ONE of the toughest last-16 matches to call was Brazil-Chile and Brazil-Colombia in the quarters is just as difficult. In the end I made the right assumptions in the last round by tipping Brazil to qualify but advising a back to lay bet on Chile. This confused some people...
JULY 5: ARGENTINA v BELGIUM BETTING PREVIEW
I TIPPED Argentina to win the World Cup at the start of the tournament but they've not impressed me – but then neither have Brazil who I backed to reach the Final but they're 90 minutes away. Lionel Messi's four goals guided Argentina through the group stage then a...
JULY 4: FRANCE v GERMANY BETTING PREVIEW
FRANCE are just behind Colombia in teams who have lit up the tournament and can beat Germany (5pm) if their rivals defend like they did against Algeria. The Africans exposed Joachin Low's defence time after time but their finishing was woeful and Manuel Neuer excelled in his keeper/sweeper role....
JULY 1: ARGENTINA v SWITZERLAND BETTING PREVIEW
JAMES RODRIGUEZ is being branded the new Lionel Messi – but the Argentine star is determined to show he's far from finished. Messi arrived in Brazil with doubts hanging over his halo after Cristiano Ronaldo snatched his World Player of the Year crown and Barcelona won nothing. Five goals...
JUNE 30: FRANCE v NIGERIA BETTING PREVIEW
FRANCE have shrugged off the loss of Franck Ribery in much the same way as Colombia have reacted to Radamel Falcao's injury. Where James Rodriguez has stepped up to the plate for Colombia it's Karim Benzema who has filled the void for the French. Benzema's contributed three goals –...
JUNE 29: COSTA RICA v GREECE BETTING PREVIEW
WE expected goals at Brazil-Chile last night and got them – but not many are predicting a high scorer when surprise guys Costa Rica and Greece meet for a place in the last eight. Greece have a reputation for defensive football but conceded three in their opener to Mexico...
JUNE 29: HOLLAND v MEXICO BETTING PREVIEW
HOLLAND set the tone for a World Cup full of bangs and shocks when they trounced Spain on day two. The Dutch set down a marker with their 5-1 romp but failed to match that display when given a scare by Australia before winning 3-2. By their third match...
JUNE 28: BRAZIL v CHILE BETTING PREVIEW
BRAZIL haven't found top gear and without Neymar would have struggled through Group A. They are under massive pressure to go all the way and the more defensive style instilled in them by Felipe Scolari has its critics but home advantage is still a factor. Chile have been superb...
JUNE 28: COLOMBIA v URUGUAY PREVIEW
COLOMBIA are one of the dark horses of the tournament and have done well to recover from the loss of star striker Radamel Falcao to stroll through the group stage. Monaco's James Rodriguez has been their star turn with Juan Cuadrado not too far behind and I expect them...
WORLD CUP: LAST-16 VERDICTS
WE now know the last-16 line-up and while the World Cup has been excellent so far this is where the excitement is cranked up a notch. It all starts on Saturday with two potential crackers – Brazil v Chile at 5pm followed by Colombia v Uruguay at 9pm. On...
WORLD CUP: MR FIXIT’S ANTEPOSTS UPDATE
BOOKIES have clawed back some of the cash they lost on the World Cup in week one – but punters remain just ahead. The unexpected goal glut has helped punters who'd rather back overs than unders and yes to both to score than no – and the match resukt...
JUNE 21: GERMANY v GHANA BETTING PREVIEW
GERMANY have been the outstanding team of the tournament but that's judging them on one performance against a 10-man and out of sorts Portugal. I'm not sure if the Germans were brilliant or Portugal awful but we know Joachim Low's side thrive on confidence and will feel they can...
JUNE 19: URUGUAY v ENGLAND BETTING TIPS
WE tagged Group D the Group of Death pre-tournament and that was without taking into account Costa Rica could live with the big guns. It was supposed to be two going through from Italy, England and Uruguay but at the moment it's Italy and Costa Rica in the driving...
JUNE 17: GROUP H BETTING PREVIEW
FIRST up on Tuesday it's Belgium v Algeria and it will be interesting to see if the winners of Scotland's qualifying group live up to the hype. Some people (not me) have talked them up as potential winners but in a European sense I don't put them in the...
ENGLAND v ITALY IN-PLAY BETTING TIPS
WE'RE just about ready for the big one – England v Italy – and I'm expecting loads of comments and in-play tips on the game. So for this one I've created a special thread and I'd ask anyone to put up in-play thoughts and advice on the match here....
JUNE 15: IVORY COAST v JAPAN TIPS
THERE have been goals galore at the start of the World Cup with many games unexpectedly going over 2.5 goals. One that cries out goals, goals, goals is Ivory Coast v Japan in the early hours of the morning – and wouldn't it be ironic if this is the...
JUNE 14: COLOMBIA v GREECE BETTING TIPS
GROUP E gets under way at 5pm today with Colombia v Greece and it's followed in the early hours of the morning by Ivory Coast v Japan. The popular bet on any Greece match will be no scorer and my call is 0-0 a 1-0 Colombia win a possibility....
JUNE 14: GROUP D BETTING PREVIEW
ENGLAND kick off their World Cup campaign tonight and the jury's out on Roy Hodgson's side with expectations low having been paired in Group D with Italy and Uruguay. It really is any two from three to go through and when it comes to the knockout stage anything can...
JUNE 12: BRAZIL v CROATIA TIPS
ALL eyes will be on hosts Brazil tonight as they kick off World Cup 2014 against Croatia. I believe Brazil will go all the way to the Final even though the silky skills of great past teams have been replaced by a dogged defence … Neymar. The Barcelona striker...
WORLD CUP 2014: GROUP BETTING
I'VE put up my top scorer tips and touched on my choice as winner and runners-up. There are loads of antepost betting opportunities and of course one punters will focus on is group betting. For many teams it will be vital to finish top to avoid a tougher last-16...
WORLD CUP: ENGLAND BETTING LATEST
SOUTHAMPTON boss Mauricio Pochettino reckons skipper Adam Lallana would make the World Cup squad of every nation that's qualified for Brazil. England boss Roy Hodgson watched the midfielder net two in the 3-0 win at Fulham at the weekend and surely he'll agree. Ladbrokes have cut Lallana's odds to...
WORLD CUP 2014: THE DRAW AND BETTING
ROY HODGSON was advising punters to back England to win the World Cup – but I'm glad I chose Brazil. Well, slightly pleased but they too drifted with the prospect of a last-16 clash against Spain or Holland. England have been handed a tough draw and you can bet...
NOV 13: WORLD CUP PLAY-OFF TIPS
THERE are two David v Goliath ties tonight as football giants Uruguay and Mexico attempt to take a giant leap towards the World Cup finals. Both have suffered poor disappointing qualifying campaigns but have a second chance with play-offs against minnows Jordan and New Zealand respectively. The Uruguay game...
OCT 15: MR FIXIT’S WORLD CUP PREVIEW
IT'S the European finale as far as World Cup qualifiers go with four top spots still up for grabs. Belgium, Italy, Germany, Holland and Switzerland are through while Russia, England and Spain and almost certain to join them with wins on Tuesday night. The closest fight for first place...
OCT 11: ENGLAND v MONTENEGRO TIPS
ENGLAND need two wins to guarantee a trip to Brazil – and should claim the first of them tonight against Montenegro. Roy Hodgson's side are taking the qualification battle to the wire after a lacklustre campaign that's seen them beat only Moldova and San Marino. However, the table-topping English...
WORLD CUP: FORSTER FOR ENGLAND?
CELTIC keeper Fraser Forster could find himself on a plane to Brazil if England qualify for the World Cup after punters backed him into 4-1 from 5-1 to make the tournament. Forster, dubbed “The Great Wall” by the Spanish press after his performance against Barcelona in the Champions League...
SEP 10: MR FIXIT’S SOUTH AMERICA WORLD CUP PREVIEW
IT'S a big night in South America and Argentina are looking to equal a record run of 26 matches and book their Brazil ticket by winning in Paraguay. Colombia and Argentina are level at the top and Colombia can clinch their spot with a draw against Uruguay in Montevideo....
SEP 10: MR FIXIT’S WORLD CUP PREVIEW
INTERNATIONAL cards are always tough but the second half of a double header should provide punters with more chances to win. It's handy seeing sides in action then being able to bet on them just four days later. Last week was the first time most teams had played a...
WORLD CUP 2014 BETTING LATEST
BRAZIL easily beat Spain in the Confederations Cup Final and the pair are 10-1 with bet365 to lock horns in the same stadium in the 2014 World Cup Final. Player of the tournament Neymar is 8-1 with the firm to finish as top scorer in his home country next...
JUNE 19: USA v HONDURAS TIPS
THIS could be the longest I've sweated over a treble. It started with Laura Robson who played in the Eastbourne women's tennis tournament at 2.15pm, continued with Spain Under-21s and finishes in the early hours of the morning with the USA. However, any winning treble's worth waiting for so...
WORLD CUP: MILESEY’S MULTIPLES
Croatia v Scotland (7.15pm) Croatia host Scotland in Zagrab as they try and steal a march on group rivals Belgium in Group A. The Croats are on a great run of form as they look to cement their claims to a winner's spot. Since bowing out of Euro 2012...
MARCH 22: SAN MARINO v ENGLAND BETTING TIPS
World Cup qualifying Group H, Bologna, 8pm FOR England it's not if they win away to San Marino – it's how many they'll do it by. Roy Hodgson's men are unbackable at a best 1-50 and even on the handicaps you have to look at England -4 or -5...
MARCH 22: SCOTLAND v WALES TIPS
World Cup qualifying, Group A, Hampden, 8pm FOR me this game is all about Gareth Bale. If he plays well Wales have a chance but if he doesn't turn up Scotland could win. Bale missed three days training this week with a virus and also has an ankle knock...
OCT 12: WORLD CUP BETTING
SCOTLAND and Wales face off in a Battle of Britain clash that features two nations who have made disappointing starts to their Group A campaigns. Wales have lost twice and Scotland drawn twice so nothing less than a win is required in Cardiff. The Tartan Army's spirits have been...
SEP 11: WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS
IT was almost a perfect night for me last Friday as all my bets bar one came up. Hopefully I'll produce a repeat performance in round two of the World Cup qualifiers. However, as is often the case with these matches teams who are well fancied are priced up...
SEP 8: SCOTLAND v SERBIA TIPS
World Cup Group A, Hampden, 3pm, live on Sky Sports 1 SCOTLAND launch their Group A campaign hoping to get off to a flier from two home games in four days. Serbia today is the tougher of the two outings and Levein’s side are a best 7-4 at Ladbrokes...
SEPT 7: WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS
IT'S Fabulous Friday as the Road to Rio kicks off with almost a full set of World Cup qualifiers. There are bound to be a few draws and few closely-fought games as countries size each other up as they start a marathon journey towards Brazil. Nations such as France,...
WORLD CUP 2014: BRING IT ON
FOR those who didn't get their hands on my Daily Record column today, I took an early look at World Cup 2014 qualifying and outright prices. When you have two pages to fill and deadlines to meet, sometimes needs must. However, although it's still two months before the start...

ENGLAND have been cut to 14-1 by Coral to win the World Cup after being handed a favourable draw. Skybet stick on 16-1 and Coral make them 1-6 to qualify for Brazil 2014 and 2-5 to win Group H after being paired with Ukraine, Poland, Montenegro, Moldova and San...
