THE FA Cup round of 16 starts with two games on Friday – Chelsea v Hull and Leicester v Sheffield United. Both should be homes as long as the Premiership sides field strong sides and that pays 9-10 at Sky Bet.

In Germany it's Hertha Berlin v Mainz while in La Liga Girona tackle Leganes while Monaco entertain Dijon.

There are the usual Jupiler League and French Ligue 2 games so watch out for goals bets from the likes of Greg and others.

My focus as usual has been on the weekend card so while my time is limited I've picked out one treble. While I'd prefer to see Leicester's team they'll probably go strong and target a cup run so back them at a decent 8-13.

Hertha Berlin should beat a Mainz side that's suffered five defeats in six including the last four by two or more. Add Monaco and over 2.5 goals at home to Dijon. Monaco have won their last three scoring nine goals and face a Dijon side who are decent on their day but who conceded too many – including eight recently at PSG.

Last night it was all about goals in the Europa League. Unfortunately my btts treble was a Zenit goal short and that was a surprise. Celtic don't keep many clean sheets in Europe but played well and deserved a win that could have been more convincing.

Well done to all the winners and for Greg with his over 0.5 first-half goals in the early games which all went over 2.5.

    Had a really good run in the last round of the A-League, here’s hoping for some more!

    Western Sydney Wanderers v Newcastle Jets:
    Wanderers enter this one with a bit of momentum, but putting it into context, it was against the worst two sides in the comp. Today they face the second best team in the league, in the form of the Jets, so it’s an entirely different proposition. Cejudo is back from injury at long last, and Ikonomides as I predicted two weeks ago, is having an immediate positive impact on this side, alongside a fine coach in the form of Gombau.

    Jets were solid against Victory after a few minor wobbles in the prior rounds, and have goalscorers all up and down their squad. Roy O’Donovan looked decent last round after his long injury layoff, and Petratos, Nabbout and Rodriguez are equally all capable of scoring. Georgievski is back from suspension as well, with the only absence being Vargas.

    This one looks like it might be a cracker for goals. Both sides are in fine scoring form lately, and Wanderers have everything to play for, as they attempt to stave off Roar’s recent successes, and hold onto their playoff spot. Whilst at the other end, Jets are still the only team mathmatically in the race for the title against Sydney, and will be keen to stay competitive, as well as at least retain second place at the worst, as they run towards the finals playoff.

    Only 5 of the 30 Europa League teams in action last night failed to net. I picked two of them in my main bet! Sums up my form at the minute – it’s been a bit of a patchy month so far. I imagine there were a few winners around last night though, so well done to those who landed some.

    Onto today.

    Any recommendations for decent online bookies to try?

    Always use bet365 and Skybet and to be honest used to swear by bet365 but of late the loyalty bonuses and offers have been awful and nowhere near what they used to be. Used to get regular £50 risk free and regular £5/£10 bonuses as cash in the account.

    Now lucky to get a £5 betcredit once per month.

    In contrast sky seem to offer more than ever before.

    Only downside with Skybet is the markets offered are less varied.

      @richb20806
      With you on that mate.
      bet365 in my opinion, were the best out there.
      I’ve missed loads of great bets with other bookies over the years, because I hate spreading my money, and their bonuses were pretty good. Not now though.
      Used to be offers of big bonuses, but now I’m down to a fiver bonus every fortnight. Pretty pathetic!
      Got a free £10 bonus from Betfair today, who I have not used for quite some time.
      If tonight’s bet lands with them, I can see bet365 getting binned.
      If it doesn’t, I can see me heading back to skybet…

    • Avatar of Rich Bastable
      richb20806 7 years ago

      Yeah I’ve considered using my Betfair account for weeks but been waiting on a bit of an offer bonus to start using the account again.

    • Avatar of clydeman
      clydeman 7 years ago

      B365 have turned crap, really poor, hardly any bonuses anymore. Skybet offers are great.
      I love Betway for the bets I do. The betclub is great, bet over £25 a week on trebles or more over 2/1 and you get £10 free – no brainer really.

    • Avatar of danny higgins
      cockerspaniel 7 years ago

      Must agree about bet365. Sky offers are way ahead of them at the moment. SKY get a bad press sometimes but at the end of the day all bookies are the same.

    No joy last night with 3 out of the 4 legs landing but a certain Spanish team against Lyon beat them in the race to 5 by getting 5 in the first 20 minutes or so they only average just over 3 in the La Liga away from home! I guess thats why we hat the Europa League!

    On to tonight and as ever hoping for big things:-

    Girona Under 11 match corners
    Hearth Berlin Under 11

    Heidenheim Under 11
    Kaiserslautern Under 11

    Valenciennes Under 11
    Sochaux Under 12

    3 x 1 point doubles and a hlaf point 6 fold pays 8-1

    Vallaodoid Over 8 Match corners
    Cremonese Over 8

    Ajaacio Over 7
    Konyasopor Over 7

    2 x 1 point doubles and add these to the unders 6 fold for a 10 fold acca Half point stakes pays 33-1

    Im also having a lucky £1 on all of these selections on the asian line pays about 400-1

    Afternoon gents – Celtic’s ability to keep a clean sheet ultimately downed two bets last night but pleased to have landed another 12/1 winner on first half goals in the Europa League

    Two bets from me tonight + the usual specials

    France Ligue 2

    It’s been a bit patchy the last few weeks here in that there isnt any really strong insight / results, goals and trends to go on. Have picked out a treble Which should be there or here abouts

    Valenciennes v Ajaccio
    Sochaux v Le Harve
    Bourg v Nancy

    Over 1.5 match goals treble 7/5 (Marathonbet) (NAP)

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

    8 matches from the Dutch Jupiler league tonight – all look string candidates for goals

    Have picked out two I like the look of

    Helmond v Utrecht II
    Almere v Go Ahead Eagles

    Back over 2.5 match goals 5/4 (Ladbrokes)

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

    French Ligue 2

    All 8 matches a goal in the first half 20/1

    All 8 matches over 1.5 goals 12/

    Dutch Juplier

    Looks a good card tonight for goals and you always get a couple of matches that see 5/6+ goals which always gives this bet a chance

    27+ goals to be scored 1/1 (Skybet)

    No Falcao for Monaco tonight. Not sure if he is injured or what?

    But I will take the price on his replacement netting Jovetic @2.05

    Managed two last time out in the nr. 9 position. This should be an open game.

    Had a bit of luck backing pens in Monaco & Lyon games.

    So Monaco to score a pen @5.00
    Monaco to miss a pen @13.00

    Same bets for the way team. Small stakes of course.

    Good luck tonight.

      Last read Falcao was a doubt through injury but if he doesn’t make Stevan Jovetic will play.

    • Avatar of Phillip Windle
      philwindy 7 years ago

      He isn’t in the 19 man squad @Mr fixit. Strong midfield should create a chance or two for Jovetic.
