Top Football Tips

I COULDN'T blame Saturday's losers on any MPs but I was done by a crazy Ayr day.

Ayr's draw at home to Stranraer beat my Top Treble and Raith's failure to score at Highland League champions downed the both to score treble so it was 2pts lost and after a recovery I've still got to work to do to recoup July losses.

Well done to all the winners including Scott with a nice 9-5 double on the members bet – he's been consistently putting up winners all summer.

Sunday sees a raft of friendlies, the final two Betfred Cup group games and some league games across the Continent. I'll have a closer look and try to put up a double or treble later or in the morning.

In the Betfred Cup Dundee v Inverness is a Group D decider with ICT leading their rivals by one goal. A draw puts both teams through to the last 16 so this could go to penalties and if it does the team who win the shootout will top the table. Queen's Park v Clyde is a dead rubber so I wouldn't go anywhere near that.

Vincent Kompany makes his competitive dugout debut at home to Oostende and his team are 4-11 at bet365 to pick up the points. Other games are Charleroi v Gent and Eupen v Antwerp.

    Mr f or anyone else can you give me some guidance please.

    I placed a bet on Betfred at 6/5 £350. It won and I went to check my bet and nothing there and stake returned. I contact the degenerate on live chat and he feeds me some **** that the bet was voided because of an obvious pricing error. The actual odds should have been 4/6. I asked how the **** is that an obvious pricing error and why wouldn’t you at least settle at the supposed correct odds. He then fed me some more **** and said I agreed to this in the terms when signing up before cutting me off and ending the chat.

    Is there anything I can do or you suggest that I can do next? Apparently the bet was void at 6:30 and it started at 7 but why would they not email or contact me to tell me they’ve voided? I’m rather appalled to be honest.

      I got stung by mansionbet last week on 2 Italian friendlies. Lazio and Atalanta were the teams had both -2 handicap and Atalanta won 6-0 and Lazio was 4/5-0 too. They voided the Atalanta game saying it was cancelled and paid out a single,wasn’t particularly happy about it tbh 😂

      Lazio finished 5-2,both kicked off at same time hence I had the double on

      What a shambles this turned out to be. Cheers for the responses gents. I sent a lengthy email at 9 this morning basically asking them to correct their error or close my account. Get back home just now, try logging on and it’s closed hahaha, I gave them so much money aswell I do not see why they’d do that. Oh well, good riddance to them.

      Also I see no comments on twitter page? What are they relating to?

      I think you should report it to IBAS. Firstly they’re wrong to wipe the bet without telling you and it’s a bit harsh to close the account it because you complained. As you say you might be better off elsewhere.

    Basketball matches are 17/20 to finish with an even overall score, when it has a 66% chance of coming in?

    Even + even = even 33%

    Wee double for me the day again. Japanese 3rd tier and Russian Premier

    Orenburg v Zenit

    Surprised at the prices for goals in this game. Orenburg scored in 24 of 30 league matches last season making them 6th highest scorers in the league. That included both meetings with Zenit. They’ve started this season the same way by finding the net in 2 defeats away from home. Zenit generally score in domestic games and managed this in 26/30 games last season and both matches this season,however they conceded in 10/15 aways last season including the 2-1 win at Orenburg. Orenburg just too score is 10/13 and BTTS is 11/10 which is going in the double

    BTTS 11/10

    Gamba Osaka u23 v AC Nagano Parceiro

    Going on the home sides goals record here,they score and concede regularly. They’ve scored in 28 of their last 32 home games and conceded in 25 of those,23 of those 32 seen a minimum of 3 goals. 9 of their last 10 this season have seen BTTS & o2.5gls….

    4-1,1-2,1-2,2-1,3-1,0-1,2-2,3-1,1-3,3-1

    Away side are rock bottom and goals record ain’t great but the home side are capable of 3 on their own.

    O2.5gls 20/23

    29/10 double

    Cupla quid on both favourites to win & BTTS

    Zenit & BTTS 3/1
    Gamba Osaka u23 & BTTS 23/10

    12/1 double

    Good morning all the Danish 1st league starts up today and as my home town team is in this league I show I fair bit of interest.

    I will look at the ins and outs and post later.

    For now (hopefully) a straightforward double
    FC Nordsjaelland O1.5 tgls
    Slavia Prague O1.5 tgls

    @2.08

    FC Nordsjaelland play their first home game of the new season here and Esberg will be up against it after only playing in Belarus 3 days ago losing 2-0 UEFA Qualification.

    Salvia Prague are flying and 2 goals here should be a bare minimum.

    O2.5 tgls for the Prague outfit looks good @1.80 too!

    Best of luck today

    Over 4.5 goals at 11/4 (NB)
    Over 1.5 first half goals at 5/4*****
    Napoli to score in the first half at 1/1
    Although this is supposed to be a friendly i’m pretty sure it will have a competitive edge as English and Italian games usually do,with Salah,Firmihno and Mane all on holiday i fully expect Liverpool’s defence to be put under unusual pressure therefore taking Napoli to score in the first half looks good value indeed at 1/1 as does over 1.5 fhg’s,best of luck.

      Strong line up from Liverpool,also from Napoli,Mignolet in goal for the reds so i can see a mistake or two at some point in the game,Harvey Elliot is 11/2 to score anytime but he doesn’t start and i have no idea if he will get game time today,my opinion is he will at some point as i’m sure Klopp will want a good look at him,if he does come on i will be on him to score anytime which will be a better price than 11/2.Best of luck

    Quick post from me. Lechia Gdańsk v Wisła Kraków ko 4.30.
    Lechia Gdańsk to win and over 1.5 match goals 1.95 Ladbrokes
    Reasoning for this.
    Wisła are a club in turmoil with financial problems and many players playing today are from lower levels or not very experienced. Lots of changes in Wisła Kraków. Lechia Gdańsk should win this but odds of 1.65 not enough Vue so drop in over 1.5 match goals for decent odds of 1.95

    My Rangers pick came in I see. They left it late but a late goal brings up a winner. Last night they were priced at 9/10 with bet365, but just before kickoff, I saw it up to 23/20. I also see that although there were not the typical high number of attacks you would see in a regular fixture, Rangers did dominate on the shots. I guess the result is about how I expected it.
    Meanwhile back at Hockenheim…….. wa .. waa.. waaaaaa – definitely a race for those who love to cheer on the safety car !!! Highlights on regular terrestrial tv in a few hrs. Worth watching for the drama.

    Hi guys,

    Wanted your thoughts on this, it’s the time of the season to he thinking about season bets, I always put a silly one on, for some loose change.

    Most likely wont come in, but if it does it’s a very nice holiday next summer. Last season I was a Peterborough top 6 finish away from 2k!

    Leicester top 10
    Fulham top 6
    Portsmouth top 6
    Mansfield top 6
    Fylde top 6 (this might be top 7)
    Aberdeen without celtic/rangers
    Dundee united
    Falkirk
    Leipzig top 4
    PSG
    Juventus

    10 pound pays nearly 4k!

    Like I said, highly unlikely but you never know!

    • Avatar of Mr Fixit
      Mr Fixit 5 years ago

      I’ve only looked at the Scottish leagues so far – Aberdeen should finish third probably ahead of Hibs.
      Dundee Utd and Falkirk both shortish-priced favourites but no guarantees with either. United will have fierce competition and Falkirk will be under massive pressure to get out of League one at the first attempt.
      HullShaker will give you thoughts on Fylde while Leicester and PSG are pretty safe bets.

      Can’t see top 4 for Leicester – so hard for anyone to break into that top 6. Seventh place is like winning the league for the smaller sides like Everton, Wolves and Bournemouth.

    Liverpool are knackered. The players that is, obviously. Them lads just want a break. But the big dollar signs force them to do these tours of Asia, America and the likes to boost the coffers the owners seek. Arsene Wenger would fight tooth and nail not to go on such exploits. Instead, he’d be just happy with pre season games against the likes of Barnet n Leyton Orient or the local likes. Finishing off with a couple of games in Austria maybe. Even Wenger succumbed to the hierarchies demands. But he knew the effects it could,and would have, on the coming season, after such physical and mental exertions. The Liverpool, City, Utd lads will go home to their loved ones and they’ll be asking when are they going on holiday. What’s a holiday? Will more than likely be the reply! Mad. But $$$$ True.

      @jos,i agree 100%,the problem for Liverpool FC was UEFA’S stupid decision to move the Champions League final 3 weeks after the season had finished,i mean if it had been played as normal then the players would have had their normal holidays,I’m not unduly worried though about Liverpool’s performance because all it’s about is fitness and with Allison,Mane,Firmihno,Salah all on holiday a well oiled machine will not function as it should without it’s parts,i do think this will make Klopp look into the transfer market as money is absolutely no object,i’m just surprised he hasn’t made any additions yet apart from the youngsters he has signed,but yeah it’s all about money.

    Unfortunately it is about the Dosh, Macca. Not just Pool but most of the club’s going on these end of season “safaris” hunting the extra green backs. Their gonna be extinct before long them poor green backs! I had to wean myself off how much players earn per week for the last couple of years to enjoy watching football again without been over critical of so and so. Doesn’t do any good. Just watching Pool today , the score doesn’t matter one iota, they were dead on their feet. Not surprising after last season’s heroics. Then more or less packing bags to go on the pre season jaunt. As said, not just Pool. It’s got to be detrimental to the club’s that slave their players. Just my observations.

      Everything you say is true and money rules.
      I prefer watching the level Clydebank are at because mostly players are doing it for the love of the game.

      Try having to play 8 games just to get to the champions league group stages while teams like Leipzig walk straight in,a Leipzig team that were put out of Europe last season by Celtic. Callum MacGregor played more minutes than any other footballer on the planet last season

    I love the National league, Paul. Teams striving for the football league “proper”. Dunno where proper comes from. The “higher echolans” supposedly of the tiers. Usually ending in tears because it’s so cut throat. What a cynic! But I do like the semi pros having that dream.

    Mr H. There’s something sadly wrong with how the governing body’s get to the conclusion that Celtic need to be in the qualifying stages to the groups. Baffling. Just a bunch of bodies!

      False advertising the champions league,spurs? Haven’t been champions in 90% of their supporters lifetime but automatically qualifying

    Decent day of profit but could’ve easily been an amazing one. I was one corner short on the NAP in Russia from getting the max payout, for the NB Michael Smith missed numerous darts for his 2nd 100+ checkout to bring in the bet and on the 5-fold I was one corner short from getting the max 20/1 payout after the first half produced 6 corners and the second only two. Well done all winners
