GOALS were at a premium in the World Cup qualifiers as six days of games ended in a whimper.

Only Spain netted more than two and their landslide against Liechtenstein was expected.

Wales finally found a way through against Moldova and then to my great surprise landed the Super Single with an injury-time second from Aaron Ramsay. I required another Italy goal for the double as they won 1-0 at home to Israel.

So after six days of battling the bookies it's possibly honours even with a magic Monday followed by a less than terrific Tuesday.

It was a different story for Greg who steered clear of the European World Cup ties and posted two winning goals bets so well done to him.

I'm quite pleased to see the back of the internationals because the toughest task isn't picking winners but finding value – whether that bet overs, handicaps or whatever.

It could be two no bet days for me ahead of a return to UK league action on Friday.

There will be plenty of tips on some of the more obscure games from site regulars but I'm going to concentrate on Saturday's card.

Already I've put up a Super Single shortlist and Scottish and English both teams to score trebles.

    Man City v Liverpool
    Liverpool to win at 3/1 (NAP)
    The bookies got this one wrong 3/1 for Liverpool to win is massive,i cannot fathom why Liverpool are so big to win this game they have been playing some of the best football in the league thus far and are way ahead of Man City in terms of fitness and team gelling etc etc,Yes there has been an international break and players will be fatigued but Man City have south american players in aguero,jesus,danilo etc etc all will be fatigued by international travelling will they be able to handle a fast paced Liverpool??no way take the 3/1 for the away side,the bookies are not giving Liverpool any respect so we shouldn’t give the bookies any by taking the massive 3/1.
    good luck folks!

    Macca do you think Liverpool’s usual fast past will be affected by fatigue also? Salah, Mane & Firminho all been on international duty in Africa / South America. Makes it very difficult to bet on I’ll probably ignore as could either be a goal fest or a bore draw, but will keep a close eye.

    • Avatar of mark edley

      nah Mane and Salah are fitter than a butchers dog.Man City players are just well overpaid nancies i’m quite happy to take the 3/1 on offer outstanding price imo.

    Macca, don’t take the 3/1 as a personal dig against your team mate, it happens a all the time. Liverpool wilregardless of how well they are playing will always be priced big away at City, United etc purely because they are away from home and the advantage is seen to be with the home team in the bookies view

    We are the same when we travel to Rangers and Hearts

    • Avatar of Mr Fixit

      The price looks quite big on Liverpool but for me they do their best work at Anfield and as has been said much will depend on players’ fitness after the internationals.

    • Avatar of mark edley
      maccathered 7 years ago

      On the contrary Sir Greg i don’t take it personal,3/1 is great considering there is nothing between the two sides,i am biased but for me i think Liverpool are the better team collectively and also have the better manager who has shown he has a plan b and even a plan C.Liverpool to top the prem come 2.45 saturday dinnertime.Well done yesterday also greg.

    • Avatar of Elvis Parsley
      elvis parsley 7 years ago

      Klopp has no plan b.
      Several times last season he let games drift by not changing from the pressing game when it wasn’t working. Changing players but still using the press when its not working isn’t plan b.
      Swansea and man utd home to name 2.

      I agree about guardiola though, he has always had ready made players .
      How many players has he improved since being at city ??.

    • Avatar of mark edley
      maccathered 7 years ago

      Of course Klopp has a pan b did you not see that against hoffenheim??since when has Liverpool ended a game with less possession than the opposition.

    • Avatar of Elvis Parsley
      elvis parsley 7 years ago

      They were always ahead in the tie against hoffenheim so no plan b needed.
      If he did try plan b why ?, when you are ahead.

    Morning gents

    Slim pickings today – just one match I like for goals and it comes form the Scottish development league (West)

    Queen’s Park v Clyde KO 7.45

    It’s been a solid start for Queens 2 wins from 2 ( 5-1 and 2-1) and they host a Cmude side who have already shipped 7 goals in their opening two defeats. Clyde and Stranraer are likely to be the whipping boys in this league again and there’s usually goals when these two sides meet – should be home win with goals

    Back over 3.5 match goals

    No prices yet – will appear inplay ( likely to be around 5/4

    G’afternoon all, a couple of rugby bet for tomorrow morning (8.35am KO):

    Counties Manukau v North Harbour:

    North Harbour Over 2.5 Team Tries @1.85

    North Harbour Over 11.5 1st Half Team Points @1.85

    NH have 3 wins from 3 so far and have been impressive with their smart rugby and how well they control the tempo of the match. Their last 2 matches they have managed to rack up 13 tries and i see no reason why they can’t add 3 more to that total. As for 1st half points, they have managed to cover the 12 points in all 3 of this year’s matches, and with Gatland’s kicking prowess, this should be a straightforward win. On the other hand Counties have lost 2/3 matches so far, and have let in 5 and 4 tries in those 2 losses.

    Also reminder of my Saturday bet of Saracens -3 handicap ;)

    Aside from England failing to cover the -1 straight handicap that I thought, betting-wise, I’ve been kinda missing from the action.
    I did say that England were very much a 2nd half side , and those able to bide their time might consider taking the win result if it remained all square at ht. That delivered but my bank was tied up on the -1 h/c, so I decided not to place a 2nd bet.

    Anyway, pre-Mayweather/MacGregor , I gave you guys a heads up on a ” little ” boxing match involving a guy who I’d not personally heard of. Mid September – Gennady Golovkin. My buddy over in Texas is big into his boxing and he told me about this fighter maybe 6 weeks back. I think if memory serves me right, he mentioned a weight division change for his opponent to make the fight happen and that his opponent was essentially told by the boxing organisation ” You’re going to fight Golovkin “. My buddy reckons the opponent body-swerved it around 18 months back and it got the backs up of the boxing organisation. I think his opponent is having weight issues at the moment. Not only does he have to get to the right weight, but he’s also got to adapt his style to accommodate this change.
    My buddy reckons Golovkin will have him on the canvas.

    What with the awful weather over in Texas this past 10 days, its kinda played havoc right across the state. Fresh water probs, major fuel shortage, high winds, power outages, yet my buddy living in Fort Worth has kinda just had the tail end of it rather than the full frontal ” rip your neighbourhood ” type of weather. High winds, mass fuel shortages and power/interweb outages are the things he’s dealing with but slowly the state is starting to straighten itself out.
    This is the main reason I’ve not been able to get a full email from him about his fight summary. I’ll do my best to get that for you with as much time to spare as possible, but keep this boxing match on your radar. We could end up on to something nice here. I’ve promised his i’ll split my winnings with him if his prediction comes true.
    Will keep you all posted.

      If Golovkin boxes at mid range behind the jab like he did against Lemieux he’ll win but but he cant employ his usual pressure game because Canelo will just be waiting with counters all night and he doesn’t want to be getting hit by someone who rehydrates well into the 180’s on fight night!
