football handicap betting tips

There's some Friday night football in the Premier League this week and high-flying Bournemouth have the chance to move up to second with a home win over Fulham.

I thought the Cherries might struggle to match last season's form after losing keeper Kepa and almost their entire defence over the summer.

But after an unlucky defeat at Anfield on day one, they've gone five games unbeaten in the league and will be confident of keeping that run going against a Fulham side who have blown hot and cold.

AFC Bournemouth vs Fulham top betting tips

Fulham have been a picture of mid-table consistency in recent seasons and that's where they find themselves once more after two wins, two defeats and two draws.

Their performances have perhaps merited more this season and Marco Silva's team have the firepower to hurt any team on their day.

Bournemouth drew 2-2 at Leeds in their last outing and Fulham have fired a blank just once all season so we should see goals at both ends tonight.

BTTS pays just 7/10 at BoyleSports but adding on over 2.5 goals boosts the odds to 6/5.

Only one of Bournemouth's home games this season has hit double figures for corners and that makes under 9.5 flag kicks worth a look at 13/10 with BoyleSports.

Wrexham vs Birmingham City

There's a blockbuster game in the Championship tonight as Wrexham renew their rivalry with Birmingham City.

These sides both won promotion from League One last season after heavy investment from their famous American owners.

They're finding things a bit trickier in the Championship and the Blues sit 11th, with Wrexham two points and four places behind them.

Birmingham had the edge in last season's meetings, with a home win and a draw in Wales, so that's why they're 13/10 favourites tonight.

Going for cards could be a good option as one of those games last term produced seven yellows and a red.

Over 42.5 booking points pays 11/8 with Betfred tonight and the Blues are 21/20 with the same firm to pick up most booking points.

Hellas Verona vs Sassuolo

Verona are still searching for a first win of the Serie A season and they'll be desperate to get that monkey off their back when Sassuolo come calling.

Paolo Zanetti's men sit fourth bottom after five games but they've drawn three of those matches and could offer some value tonight at 13/8 with home advantage.

Sassuolo have made a decent start since winning promotion, with two wins and three defeats. However, both those victories came at home and they've yet to pick up a point on the road.

Serbian veteran Nemanja Matic should be in the Sassuolo midfield and he's 16/5 at BoyleSports to pick up a second card of the season.

    Fancy cards in the Wrexham game too. Bit of bad blood from last season. Might try and pick to players to see yellow, will stick up later if so. Tripping over ourselves on here with posts these days…. Looks like Elvis has also left the building 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Ullern vs Frigg
    Sat 12:00

    Over 4.0,4.5 Asian line @ 1/1 (bet365) Nap/Nb

    Last two bets haven’t been great but going in for this one. Over 4.5mgs is 23/20 so isn’t too much of a difference. Ullern at home have been excellent to bet on this season, and do not sit in and defend. 65 goals in 11 home games (averaging 5.9 per game).

    Frigg are decent scorers and are pushing the top of the league, netting multiple goals against better teams than Ullern. In the same vein Ullern have seen much poorer teams than Frigg come to their ground and put 2/3/4 past them. Would also be looking at taking over 5.5mgs if it becomes available. Both teams should contribute and I am surprised this isn’t set a goal higher for the line which has been the case in Ullerns last 4/5 home games, so on this all day long.

    Would be cautious taking games in Scotland, between the wind and the rain will be a few postponed or played in dreadful conditions.

    Good luck 🤞
