IT was a tale of two trebles on Saturday with a nice 17-5 winner followed by a loser thanks to demolition Derby.

I needed Derby after wins for Blackburn and Cardiff and they put on one of their worst shows of the season to lose 4-1 at home to Sunderland.

Friday felt a better day than it was as I was one goal away from a both to score treble while I plumped for Fulham and btts rather than just Fulham to win.

Elsewhere there were plenty of winners from Jordan, Desmond and Greg so well done guys and to all the others.

As you know it's a disjointed English card with most of the lower-league games played on Friday but there's a full Scottish card and plenty of European games to choose from so check out our French, German, Spanish and Italian tips that have been posted.

I've posted separate Scottish and English previews where most of my bets are reasoned.

My Super Single is another 4-1 shot with Clyde too big to win at Peterhead as Damian Walker said in his first-scorer thread. In a 50-50 game Clyde draw no bet at 4-1 is worth a look.

    @mr-fixit is the super single Clyde draw no bet or just straight up win? On sky bet there 4/1 to win like the odds you’ve mentioned but 3/1 draw no bet? Just wanted to clarify what your recommending? Cheers ??

      It’s draw no bet as is stated in the copy and on the tip.
      That was 4-1 when I placed it – best price is now 7-2.
      They were 5-1 to win but best price is now 9-2.
      It’s only a good price if it comes in but no doubt it’s too big.

    On the betting front it has been successful week, full mls card this weekend to look forward too.

    Toronto
    Atlanta DC

    6/4 – Banker Treble

    Toronto kicks off at 1am

    Toronto have had a mix start to the season, they are now in the champions league semi final but domestically they have lost two out of two and sit bottom of the league.
    Tonight they play at home, they simply need to win, no game next weekend as they are resting in between the double header of champions league semi final midweeks. Then the following two MLS games are away from home. Play Real Salt Lake tonight who have had a mixed start to the season, were embarrassed 5-1 by new side LAFC but beat NYRB the following week. They are a side which are fast in attack, Toronto will need to watch out for the counter attack.
    The defending champions will be eager to get 3pts on the board before focusing on the champions league, they will be far too strong for RSL tonight

    In the two games Minnesota and Atlanta played against each other last season there was 12 goals, both teams starts to the season have featured goals and i can’t see this game being any different, i was going to back O2.5 goals but decided i am going to back Atlanta double chance. Since their opening week spanking they have been very impressive in their two home games, confidence will be high and i can see them going to Minnesota and getting the job done.

    NYCFC have had an impressive start to the season. Losing key layer Jack Harrison has not affected them and they look even stronger. Scoring two goals per game, they will get on the scoresheet no problem against San Jose who have conceded 3 goals in each game they have played this season

    Everything I tipped or suggested landed yesterday, but I’m no religious man so I’ll put it down to lady luck. Hopefully the luck continues with Burnley heading to West Brom. The Baggies are in real trouble having lost seven in a row and are now 10 points from safety, while Burnley, if they keep producing, may be in with a sniff of European football next season. They could have done without the winter break with two wins against the struggling West Ham and Everton, and are undefeated in their last six. Burnley look a big price on the WDW, but the value lies in their goal price. Burnley have conceded first in six of their last eight, with West Brom not keeping a clean sheet in 10. I never back this market, but Burnley to win from behind could be in with a shout.

    Double the Burnley goal with another away side heading to a struggler. Southampton travel to London in a massive 6 pointer. West Ham have conceded 3+ in four of their last five, two of those teams are Swansea and Brighton who are two of the worst scoring teams in the league. The Saints, despite their table position have been tough to beat away from home in recent week and I fancy them here. They’ve scored away at West Ham in every game dating back to when Michael Carrick was still playing for the Hammers (2002). Charlie Austin is set to return for the Saints, but whether he’ll start is another story.

    Burnley
    Southampton

    Well just in from the Wolves game at Boro.

    Didn’t put up a preview as I didn’t have any recommended bets. Placed a few Sky RABs… all lost.

    Didn’t fancy it from a betting point of view as we hadn’t won up at Boro in forever. It’s been a proper bogey game for us.

    Summary… awful referee. Simply the worst refereeing performance I’ve ever seen. Even a lot of Boro fans on their forum have said the same thing. I think it answers the question why no English refs are going to the World Cup lol.

    Even against 12 and going down to 9 we showed some tremendous character. I’d say the only competitors we have for top spot would be Cardiff and they’ll push us all the way.

    Next game is Tuesday night. Hull at home. I think we will win this and will be throwing us into Accas with
    Wolves Win 8/15
    Wolves 2+ goals 8/11

    Wolves win and over 1.5 wolves goals …. 20/21 NAP (3 points).

    Then onto Friday night away at Cardiff. I won’t recommend a bet here as I’m just not sure. I’ll be on the lookout for less risky value and might look around bookings. Truth be told I would snap your hand off now if offered a draw in this game. My gut feeling says Cardiff will win this

    • Avatar of Fraser M
      fraser51 7 years ago

      Don’t think you could argue with the ref, your players weren’t helping him with some stupid rash challenges.

      Not seen alot of Wolves this season but i was impressed the way they battled once down to 9 men

    • Avatar of Rich Bastable
      richb20806 7 years ago

      Agreed that our players didn’t help themselves.

      First half there were a few rash Boro challenges which I think the ref could have stamped out but didn’t. Then second half when Helder was through on goal and Friend just clipped his heel. Yes minimal contact but when your running at that pace the slightest contact will put you on the deck. Should’ve been a free kick and on the basis of some of the cards given a red. If the ref didn’t think Helder was fouled then should have penalised him for the dive.

      But ultimately still 3 points and another game closer.

      Yeah the way they battled was quality. I think this is our season

    Although sulking in a corner is not an open, backing them might just be the way in two of the EPL’s headline games:

    PALACE VS. LIVERPOOL:

    LIVERPOOL OVER 6.5 CORNERS…5/6
    ???

    EVERTON VS. CITY:

    Morning all.

    Frustrating day yesterday with just the one winner from three. Not too much harm was done with the half stake loser, but surprised by 0-0 at Galway.

    Equally frustrating is that in my (slightly not sober) stupor, I thought I’d posted my picks last night. I had an Aussie double this morning that, as is always the case, landed – but I was surprised to see I hadn’t posted it! Muppet.

    Onto what is left of the day. Another tricky-ish card where I’m once again placing a lot of faith in the third tier of Scottish football.

    Morning gents – it was good Friday for us punters and let’s eat into those bookies coffers some more and make it a super Saturday

    I’ll be focusing mainly on the Scottish games but there are also the usual euro games with a full Seria A card thrown into the mix

    Aberdeen v St Johnstone

    7 points Feom the last 9 has ensured the Perth Saints won’t be involved in the play relegation fight. We’ll just miss out on top 6 which isn’t bad considering we’ve had a really poor season and have been hammered by injuries

    We travel to Aberdeen to play a dons side battling it out wit Ranges for second spot. They don’t lose many at home and only Celtic have left with three points in their last 10 home matches. Derek McInnes has plenty of talent at his disposal in the likes of Chrisite, McKay- Stevens, and McGinn and despite our recent up turn in fortunes I think the Dons are over priced for this. They are 19 points ahead of us in the league and their extra quality going forward should see them edge this

    Back Aberdeen to Win 20/23 (Boyle) (NAP)

    ***************************

    Raith Rovers v Albion Rovers
    Peterhead v Clyde

    Over 2.5 match goals double 6/4

    ****************************

    West Ham v Southampton

    Be interesting to see what impact Mark Hugjes had on this team but your tend to find teams get a lift from a new manager coming in and given West Ham don’t keep too many clean sheets at home we should see both sides scoring here leading us to goals

    Premier League Previews

    Premier League

    12:30 Crystal Palace vs Liverpool – Prediction 1.3

    Current Form

    * Palace have seen BTTS in 9 of their last 12 home PL matches
    * 8 of those 9 also saw over 2.5 goals scored
    * Palace scored 2 goals exactly in 8 of those games
    * Palace have seen BTTS in 6 of their last 8 PL matches
    * Liverpool have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in 6 of their last 11 away PL matches
    * Liverpool have scored 2 goals or more in 10 of their last 12 away matches
    * Liverpool have kept only 4 clean sheets in their last 15 away PL matches

    Past Meetings

    * Each of the last 6 meetings at Selhurst Park has seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored
    * 12 of the last 14 meetings (86%) have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals.
    * Liverpool scored 2 goals or more in 4 of their last 5 matches at Palace

    Final Verdict

    Goals and an entertaining contest is usually the order of the day when these two sides come face to face in London and that’s the outcome I expect here with Palace welcoming back some important players to their squad for the visit of a Liverpool side that will be desperate for another 3 points as they look to stay in touch with 2nd placed Man United.

    Each of the last 6 meetings at Selhurst between these two sides has seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored with a whopping 25 goals scored in those 6 fixtures. With Palace scoring 12 of those 25 goals, we can be confident of the hosts scoring again here, particularly if the influential Wilf Zaha is passed fit to make a return for the hosts following injury layoff.

    While Palace did fail to score in recent home matches with Man City and Spurs, they were missing plenty of key players for those contests while their most recent effort at home saw them perform much better, despite losing 3.2 to Man Utd having lead 2.0. I expect another decent effort from the home side here but with Liverpool in such strong form, it’s hard to look past the visitors for all 3 points.

    Mo Salah is, of course, the talk of the country following his sensational debut season for the Anfield side and having scored against Portugal with Egypt during the International break, he will be confident of adding to his impressive goals tally here but it is at the back where Liverpool still have problems finding a natural partner for Virgil van Dijk.

    With Joe Gomez ruled out and Dejan Lovren doubtful for this contest, the out-of-form Joel Matip may get the nod to partner the £75 million man Van Dijk at the heart of the Liverpool defence and with that, you would expect Palace to cause the Anfield side some problems with Zaha such a threat this season for the Eagles.

    BTTS @4/5 looks likely in a fixture that should also go over 2.5 goals @4/7 as well with 13 of the last 15 meetings seeing that outcome so the double @20/21 also makes sense with Liverpool still vulnerable defensively while those past meetings indicate a strong propensity for goals in this lunch-time kick-off from the Premier League.

    Best Bets

    BTTS @4/6 – 3.5 stars
    BTTS and over 2.5 goals @20/21 – 3 stars

    15:00 Brighton vs Leicester – Prediction 2.1

    Current Form

    * Brighton have only lost 2 of their last 17 home matches (all comps) (against Liverpool and Chelsea)
    * Brighton have won 5 of their last 6 home matches (all comps) including each of the last 4
    * Brighton have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in 6 of their last 7 home matches (all comps) including each of the last 4
    * Brighton scored 2 goals or more in those 6 matches
    * Brighton have scored 9 goals in their last 3 home league matches (against West Ham, Swansea and Arsenal)
    * Leicester have seen BTTS in 10 of their last 11 away PL matches
    * 9 of those 10 also saw over 2.5 goals scored
    * 30 goals have been scored in Leicester’s last 8 away league matches (3.75 average per game)
    * Leicester have lost 4 of their last 5 away PL matches. They had gone unbeaten in their previous 7 on the road
    * Leicester have only won 3 of their last 13 PL matches
    * Leicester have seen BTTS in each of their last 6 PL matches

    Past Meetings

    * Leicester won 2.0 in the reverse fixture back in August

    Final Verdict

    Brighton certainly do their best work at home having won only 1 of their last 11 away PL matches, scoring only 3 goals in the process but at the AMEX, Chris Houghton’s side are an increasingly tough side to beat with only 2 losses in their last 17 and 5 wins from their last 6 and given that form, they will be confident of another 3 points against Claude Puel’s Leicester.

    Indeed, Brighton have now won their last 3 successive home matches in the Premier League to move the south-coast side into mid-table and 6 points clear of the relegation places and I fancy them to give Leicester plenty of problems with the visitors losing 4 of their last 5 away in the PL and struggling for form generally with only 3 wins in their last 13 in the Premier League.

    BTTS is big @19/20 and I do expect both to hit the net with Leicester only failing to score in 1 of their last 11 away PL matches and Brighton scoring 9 in their last 3 at home while a home win has to have a good chance so I’ll take the DNB option @5/6 odds.

    Best Bets

    BTTS @19/20 – 3 stars
    Brighton DNB @5/6 – 3 stars

    WILSTERMANN VS. GUABIRÁ (2000 KO):

    Looking good for a Wilstermann side who I’ve been raving about for the last 12 months and they’ve proven they can mix it with the Bolivian big boys with results against The Strongest and Bolivar under their belts in that time.

    Guabira aren’t a bad side on home soil but are a different proposition on the road – this could be a step to far for them as they head to a Jorge side who beat them 1-3 away just last month.

    Two selections worth a look:

    WILSTERMANN OVER 2.5 TGS.. 10/11
    ????

    WILSTERMANN OVER 3.5 TGS…12/5
    ?

    all three games over 4.5 goals at 92/1 and also on the three singles,these games all should be goal laden,Seville way out of their league against Bayern who are quite capable of destroying a poor Seville side,Roma have no experience at this level and are way out of their depth v Barcelona which should be a very comfortable home win.I was going to go with the Liverpool game been a tight match but i have changed my mind and this could be a swashbuckler of a game also with neither defence being that great when tested which both will be here.
    best of luck.

    Well after Sevilla went 2-0 I thought that was that with only 5 mins to spare but Barcelona you beauties kept the accas alive with a 88 and 89 minute goals ??

    Two early evening accas for me;

    Over 2.5 mgls
    PEC Zwolle v Sparta Rotterdam ❌ (2-0FT)
    Vitesse v Roda ✅
    Bayern Munich v Dortmund ✅
    Sevilla v Barcelona ✅
    Las Palmas v Real Madrid ✅
    7/1
    1 POINT
    *lost – goal short in PEC game*

    Team goals – 2+
    Bayern Munich ✅
    Barcelona ✅
    Real Madrid ✅
    Benfica ✅
    PSG ✅
    4.22/1
    2 POINTS
    **WON** ?

    Have also done this and added;
    City ✅
    Juventus ✅
    For 11.83/1
    Free £30 bet staked
    **WON** ?

    Almost 3 of 3 winners but a goal short in PEC Zwolle game but I’m absolutely not complaining, well happy with the 4.22/1 2 POINTER and especially the 11.83/1 £30 FREE bet landing.
    Brings up around 40 POINTS profit today. Loving Easter weekend so far.
    Well Done all winners there’s been a fair few!!
