Top Football Tips

PORTO beat me all ends up on Thursday with all of my other tips winning.

On recent form the Portuguese giants were surprising 2-0 losers at Feyenoord who had gone down to Rangers on matchday one and had been conceding freely on the domestic scene – but that's the Europa League for you.

Well done to all the winners on what looked a decent night with the likes of Greg and HullShaker doing the business as usual.

On Friday there are two UK games to look at – Alloa v Dundee United in Scotland and Birmingham v Middlesbrough south of the border.

Prolific striker Lawrence Shankland will be all the rage for first scorer after his Scotland call-up but the prices are a bit shocking. Shankland, unusually for a lower-league player, will join up with Steve Clarke's men next week after starting his Tannadice career with 15 goals after netting 34 in 41 for Ayr last season.

I tipped him for first scorer last week and he sealed his Scotland spot with a hat-trick against Morton. Tonight it's top v bottom in front of the cameras on a plastic pitch in miserable conditions so it might be as easy for Dundee United as the odds suggest.

Still I can't look past Shankland to score first at 12-5 with betfair. An alternative bet is Shankland to score in a United win at 11-10 with Paddy Power – just to net he is as short as 4-9 and no bigger than 8-13.

Big games on the Continent include Real Betis v Eibar, Hertha Berlin v Fortuna Dusseldorf and Amiens v Marseille.

There are the popular lower-league games in France and Holland and the usual suspects will post tips.

As is the norm at this time of the week I'm focused on Saturday's card and I've not had time to add other bets. However, I'm putting up a Super Single for Saturday as Swansea's price to beat Stoke at home looks too big.

      Good morning harruni, I read somewhere that PSS will play today with 6 missing players including their first choice gk and first choice scorer. Is it true?

    • haruni 4 years ago

      morning too… The only missing player is Brian and he shall be playing only this one out due to disciplinary actions but next week he is available too…Unless anything has changed of which I haven’t heard of

    Morning lads
    Saturday Tips
    Brighton v Spurs
    Spurs to win at 19/20*****
    Spurs to win -1.5 asian handicap at 5/2
    I fully expect a reaction from Spurs after their midweek game,it’s a must win and with Brighton in bad form themselves i think Spurs will win this with some to spare.
    correct score 1-3
    Norwich v Villa
    Over 3.5 goals at 11/8*****
    Over 4.5 goals at 10/3
    Over 5.5 goals at 7/1
    Norwich come into this game in poor form indeed they have lost 5 out of their last 6 games and that win v Man City seems a distant memory,just goes to show how harsh the Premier League can be,to be fair to Norwich though they have had 3 tough away fixtures and now they are back at home i expect them to get going again with goals a plethora of goals.
    Best of luck

    • Mr Fixit 4 years ago

      On any other day I’d take Spurs but something doesn’t seem right there and I can’t touch them this weekend.

    • gaz1105 4 years ago

    • maccathered 4 years ago

      Spurs just doing what Spurs do wdw market should be just fine.

    • cockerspaniel 4 years ago

      I think there will be bookings in this match — both teams with something to prove .

    • maccathered 4 years ago

      I didn’t tip Rangers one off,i just said they will get beat and they did narrowly.

    • Mr Fixit 4 years ago

      Cmon, you said Rangers would be hammered. A defeat’s a defeat but they gifted to Young Boys with two bad mistakes.

    Morning all,

    It’s top versus bottom in the Scottish Championship tonight when Alloa host Dundee United.

    United have won six out of seven so far and Lawrence Shankland has scored in all of those successes.

    An Arabs win at Alloa with Shankland scoring is currently priced at 5/6 with Bet 365

    Good luck with all of your Friday flutters 🤞

    • grantheaney 4 years ago

      I also really like the look of Dundee United 2+ goals and Alloa 20+ booking points at 11/8 with Sky Bet

  12. andymac1980 4 years ago

    RWC – South Africa v Italy
    Big match today for Italy after 2 easy enough bonus point wins and top their group but now they face the might of South Africa and then New Zealand! South Africa need to win today to progress in the group and they will do so. They are a huge team and my personal pick for the RWC pre-tournament. This game will be won brutally in the forwards and the lightening quick backs pulling Italy apart in the 2nd half, although Italy will empty the tank for this match. Finding value again is tricky. South Africa are well worth the 26 point handicap in dry conditions but it’s hot and humid again, with a chance of thunderstorms and so I’m inclined to take Italy on the handicap.

    Italy +26 points @ evens
    Handre Pollard anytime try @ 13/5

    Punt – Handre Pollard to score a try, conversion, penalty and drop goal @ 22/1
    All with Paddy Power

    • andymac1980 4 years ago

      Finally found the market so also on a drop goal to be scored with Sky Bet @ 4/1

    • sasaharv62 4 years ago

    • andymac1980 4 years ago

      Cheers Sasa, same to you. That red card has changed everything though. Had that on my list at 8/1 and din’t take it annoyingly!

      Winners – I’d be careful pal after the Italy red card.

    • winners are grinners 4 years ago

      I did it at HT before the red

    • andymac1980 4 years ago

      Poor morning betting wise with all downed. Game went as expected but Italy losing 2 tight head props, leading to uncontested scrums, was bad enough until the crazy red card, which should have been 2, killed all chances. South Africa roll on to the quarter finals now.

    Mr F, plastic pitch granted but probably the best 4G pitch in the country, as for the miserable conditions what do you know, 13 degrees & cloudy pretty tropical for Alloa in October!!!

    • Mr Fixit 4 years ago

      Any time I’ve gone to Alloa it was miserable!
      Through the west it’s been wet and windy for a couple of days so we’ll send you some.

    • 4 years ago

      Your cordially invited over Mr F for a couple of pre match beers to quell your misconceptions 😂, as usual we hope for the best & fear the worst, one thing despite our threadbare squad & part time status we never lack for fitness.
      P.s – what about the Ochil Hills in the background of The Recs!!!

    • Mr Fixit 4 years ago

      Been to the ground a few times down the years. Don’t what age you are but a guy I work was still cursing Alloa tonight for beating his 10fold about 30 years when Alloa won 7-2 at Clydebank having gone there without a point. Form went out of the window a bit like tonight.

    • 4 years ago

      Nudging 50 Mr F can mind the benches at Kilbowie, we were brilliant last night totally deserved 3 points.

    • Mr Fixit 4 years ago

      Yeah me too. I can remember that 7-2 game like it was yesterday. Just a crazy day where we dominated and you guys scored every time you attacked.

    Fiday goals tip
    QSL
    Al Shahaniya v Umm Salal
    Al Khor v Al Arabi
    BTTS double 8/5 bet 365

    al shahaniya have lost every game so far this season and have netted in only 2- but they were against al arabi and al sadd 2 of the best 3 teams in the league. after 5 defeats on the spin they will have earmarked this match as 1 they can pick points up in but crucially so will umm salal. I expect on open attacking game here with both sides finding the net. The second match sees al Khor take on high flying al arabi and again I can see an open attacking game. both sides will be desperate for the points for their own reasons and have managed 1 clean sheet in 9 games between them. after the first few rounds of action the league has sprung into life and is more like the usual goals fest we have become accumstomed to. after a slow start round 3 saw 4/5 matches btts, round 4 saw 4/6, round 5 saw 4/5 and so far round 6 has seen 2/2.

    Everybody has seen how organised Sheffield United are,they gave Liverpool a game albeit they were at home,they beat Everton 0-2 away and now face basement boys Watford who quite frankly are rubbish at defending.I think the price on Sheffield United to win is because they are a newly promoted team and Watford are Premier League regulars,for me Sheffield United look a solid bet at great odds.

    Evening gents,

    It’s Friday and it’s Night Owl territory!

    Not too many games at this time of year but I like the look of a speculative both teams to score double on the following:

    DEPORTIVO TÁCHIRA VS. LLANEROS DE GUANARE (11.00pm)

    FIGUEIRENSE VS. OESTE (11.00pm)

    Argentina and Brasil respectively and although neither the Superliga or Serie B are hotbeds of goals, there’s just enough in historical and current form to draw me in!

    Both teams to score double
    (33/10, bet365) ⭐

    Best of luck!

    Not the best place to go for goals but they tend to come in the first half at good prices. The double pays 11/8
    Over 0.5 fhgs
    Los Andes v Sacachispas
    Newells v Barfield
    Highly optimistic
    GL if ya follow 👍
