Top Football Tips

IT'S another big weekend and it started with Liverpool beating Wolves to seal top spot in the Premier League for Christmas Day.

I put up a site treble but it needed Wolves to score and while they had chances Liverpool's win was well deserved.

Some good winners as usual with HullShaker's corner bets on Liverpool possibly the pick of the bunch.

On Saturday the action kicks off with Arsenal v Burnley then we have Man City v Crystal Palace and the evening live TV game sees Ole Gunnar Solskjaer make his dugout debut for Man United at former club Cardiff. Should be tasty.

I've previewed the game and there loads of other previews of big matches from kevinmac and Scott Allot so check them out.

It's nice to have a win before Xmas but keep stakes to your usual level and make sure you're not relying on winnings to buy late pressies or booze.

My VIP tips – mostly long shots – are on another post for members only so check them out.

Desmond posted a Xmas contest with £100 up for grabs so have a go – and watch out for my Secret Santa giveaway over the weekend.

    Morning gents,

    It’s been a tight card all week so more than happy with the return since the weekend but it really has been slim pickings for selecting games.

    Saturday sees a much restored bumper card and although that’s not always a blessing, there are a good number of matches that have a tick next to their name!

    I’m taking on 3 bets; one single that I think represents great value, a 10-fold with a difference and a 10-fold for the mentally unstable…

    BILLERICAY TOWN VS. WOKING:

    I’ve written much about the Essex Boys both before and since the advent of the current campaign; they were my big antepost fancy and thus far they have kept me on my toes – a side with great capacity but one that are certainly not without their dramas whether it’s managerial sackings, big wins, cup exploits or seemingly random disappointing results.

    Woking will put forward a real challenge and without quoting their away form in too great a detail (2-4-1-1-4-1-2 team goals in their last 7 away games and an 100% scoring record in their last 10) I think this is potentially the best value bet in the English lower leagues given both sides current flightpath.

    The most recent H2H finished 2-1 with the honours going to Woking back in September and I just cannot see the match finishing with at least one goal in both nets.

    Not a fan of multiple permutations no matter how odds-on the singles are but there is a very good chance of all 10 sides scoring here:

    ARSENAL
    CHELSEA
    CITY
    BRENTFORD
    BORO
    BURY
    FYLDE

    BRENTFORD
    BORO

    Shortee’s NAP
    •3pm NAP

    📊3 games over 1.5 goals

    • Stoke v Millwall (championship) 3/10

    • Ipswich v Sheff Utd (championship) 1/3

    • Wycombe v AFC Wimbledon (league 1) 3/10

    📍Well we start with stoke v millwall and what more should I even need to say about millwall in this group. Millwall are the 2.5 kings of championship and last week they helped land us £819.99 as their game v preston was included in my 2.5 goals. The price this week is generous for 1.5 never mind 2.5 goals. Last 5 stoke all over 1.5
    2-2
    2-0
    2-2
    2-1
    2-2
    Millwall same
    3-2 (v preston last week)
    2-2
    1-1
    0-2
    1-1
    First pick justified for why.

    📍Next up is a mismatch in the tractor boys v the blades. 5th vs 24th (last)
    Blades scoring over a goal a game (22 games 35 goals) and have3rd best away record. Tractor boys sit bottom only 18 goals scored and 37 conceded over 1.5 a game. Can see sheff utd winning this easily 2-0 or greater but again value in 1.5 as we want 2 goals and don’t care who scores them. Last 8 from 10 for both have seen 1.5 achieved.

    📍Last up is Wycombe are on a great run in league 1 with no loss in 5 and scoring 9 goals in the process and only 1 loss in 7 at home where they have defeated 3 top teams. Up against them is a side who have second last worst away record with only 4 goals scored in 11 games and a massive 15 conceded. They have also lost their last 8 from 10 away from home with 7 seen 1.5 achieved.

    📌I’m happy to take these 3 as my NAP with reasoning.

    The combined price is effectively 5/4 or 1.25/1

    💰£50 pays £112.50💰

    💎 GOODLUCK all 👍

    Morning lads
    Arsenal v Burnley
    Burnley double chance at 10/3
    Burnley come into this game in poor form having won only once in ten games and if your a stats person then this bet isn’t for you.Arsenal have lost their last two games and i’m just wondering if the old Arsenal is still there,the one that usually bottles it at this time of year.This game won’t be easy for Arsenal as there are signs that Burnley are getting back to their old selves being difficult to beat,they ran Spurs close away from home in their last encounter almost picking up a point but lost it in the dying minutes.Arsenal had a lively encounter v Spurs midweek and Burnley have had all week to prepare for this clash,i reckon Burnley could keep it tight and snatch a draw here.This is a risky once hence the odds so small stakes.

    City v Palace
    Over 3.5 goals at 10/11*****
    Over 4.5 goals at 2/1**
    Best of luck

    Ayr price moving out, anybody know why?

    Top tip today – Livingston 15/4 bet365

    Hibs looked really drab against rangers and will be tired coming into the game today. Such a large price (granted they are away) for a team who in their most recent game managed a 5-0 humping of Heart and 3-1 win over St.Mirren. They seem to rally in the bigger games and I think this will be another opportunity to show that they aren’t mugs.

    If the straight win is a step too far, double chance and +1 pays 21/20.

    Despite having no fit strikers available I’m still very confident of a resounding Celtic win today with the likes of McGregor, Rogic, Sinclair, Forrest, Johnson,& Morgan available in attacking positions. Dundee have the worst defensive record in the division conceding 41 in 18 at an average of 2.27gls per game & that rises to 2.44gls on away days & today they are the visitors too a Celtic side that’s put 23 past the 8 teams who’ve visited already at an average of 2.88gls per match. Its no very often ill disagree with Mr F but you can’t be betting joint top scorers Celtic & u3.5gls at home against that defence, that’s a goal total that could be had by HT with or without a natural striker. Dundee have lost four of their past five away Premiership games (D1), losing 15 goals in the process.
    Dundees record in Glasgow is tragic and have lost 19/23 visits to Celtic winning just once, they’ve conceded 67 times in 23 averaging 2.91gls conceded per match. Dundee have failed to net in 10/12 against Celtic with 2 solitary strikes in 2-1 defeats breaking the run. Celtic should be winning this by 3+ in my opinion but would be surprised if there’s 4/5 in it and that’s the road I’m going down. Depending on team news I’ll be having a punt at Rogic too score, the big man’s due one but he might warm the bench with Pittodrie in mind

    Morning Gents

    Aussie A League Melbourne Derby

    Victory have been the team to watch this season with their very exciting open and attacking football. Scoring plenty of goals, in fact their last 5 games have seen them score 4,2,4,2,4 it doesn’t seem to matter if they are home or away. Big but tonight however, is that key man, playmaker and goal scorer Honda is out injured and he usually plays a major part in all victory’s attacking moves.

    Tonight they face a City side who have only been beaten at home this season by Sydney FC. They are generally very difficult to beat at home and do not concede many goals.

    I think Victory will struggle to breakdown City’s good defensive unit without Honda. The question will be whether City can do enough to win the game, this could easily end a draw, and on that basis I’m happy to go with the following;

    Melbourne City draw no bet 11/10

    Good luck

    Going on faith here. Both teams are poor defensively, moreso Brisbane on the road, and in Australia, it seems more a contest of who can hit harder. Let’s hope for an open game with a 2-1 or a 2-2

    back to league action for torquay united after a hard fought extra time defeat with ten men , and nine for the last part,at boreham wood last weekend.

    This is the first game of a busy period, We go into this game lacking players due to suspensions (keating three game ban, cameron one) and injuries.

    Sendles White should start in place of Cameron, the excellent Asa Hall should come into the side and move Andrews out wide ti fill keating’s berth. Then probably keep the rest the same.
    Nabi and Koszela, Essuman, Burton come in on the bench. Our starting 11 is good enough to win the game.

    hampton and richmond beat welling last time out, so are no kugs, but we should be good enough to beat them with our full time fitness, could be a close victory, so my NAP will just be away win 5/6 (betway)

    Morning gents

    THE busy festive card starts today and I’m
    Focusing on the Scottish games to boost the Christmas funds.

    Hibernain v Livingston

    After wins against Hamilton and Celtic, Hibs held Rangers to a draw midweek and whilst it was hardly vintage stuff form Neil Lennons side it was a good point considering Rangers dominated.

    7 points from those three games is a good return and nothing but three points today will do.

    Hibs have only lost once at home in the last 12 months but they really need to start winning against the sides they should be beating. 2-2 draws against St. Mirren and Dundee simply isn’t good enough.

    Livingston have had a terrific season but its worth pointing out all of their good work is done at home on their plastic pitch.

    Away from home they have been poor and have only collected 5 points on their travels which makes me think Hibs are a decent price to win this.

    Hibs are in good shape and have refound a bit of form. Livi are a good side but not away from home and that’s why I’m taking the Hibs to collect another three points.

    Recommended Bet:

    Hibs to best Livingston
    17/20 (Coral) (NAP)

    Scottish Division One BTTS treble

    Arbroath v Raith Rovers
    Brechin v Airdrie
    East Fife v Forfar

    It’s a cracking league for goals Division one especially for both teams to score.

    There are three games today I like with a top of the table at Arbroath in a match Raith have to win.

    Nothing between the other sides – this shouldn’t be far away.

    Recommended Bet

    Both Teams to Score Treble
    3/1 (Ladbrokes)

    Hartlepool v Havant and Waterlooville

    Rule of thumb when it comes to Havant playing away from home – back goals.

    9 of their last 10 games have seen over 2.5 goals and on the road most of those goals have been scored at the wrong end.

    They have the second worst away record in the league with just 6 of their 24 points gained on the road and they make the long journey up to Hartlepool to play a side who can’t buy a win at home. They’ve lost their last 5 with all 5 seeing over 2.5 goals and both sides scoring. Same again today

    Recommended Bet:

    Over 2.5 match goals
    9/10 (Bet365)

    Will also be on the usual Goal specials in English league 1 and 2

    Goal in the first in all matches 55/1 and 66/1

    Over 1.5 match goals 28/1 and 35/1

    Good luck with your bets today 👍🏼⚽️⚽️⚽️

    Josh Warrington VS Carl Frampton

    🌟NAP—🌟
    Carl Frampton Win @ 1/2 @Paddypower

    Make no mistake…this is world class vs domestic. Completely priced wrong…Frampton should be 1/10.

    If Carl Frampton turns up to even a fraction of what he has and can do it will be an easy nights work. Warringtonbeat a poor and malnourished Selby…that’s about it. Frampton is world class (Elite) level.

    looking at the markets for arsenal & burnley

    the bookies have arsenal to score 5+ at 5/1 and whilst i think its very possible those odds are ridiculously low for a premier league game

    the bookies are obviously anticipating a pasting for burnley and from what I’ve seen of them this season i agree

    theres not much value to be had but i think arsenal win to nil looks like decent value along with -2 handicap @11/8

    burnleys away form has been poor this season failing to score at spurs , palace , leicester , city , wolves and southampton

    arsenals defence is more than capable of a banana skin but at home they have been getting better at picking up clean sheets against lesser oposition

    watford , everton and huddersfield all failing to score at the emirates so far this season

    May try to get down to the game at 3PM.

    National League North – 3PM

    Altrincham v Darlington

    The Robins have been the team to follow the past few weeks and have been in cracking form. Discounting last weeks 1-0 Cup defeat – weather was awful/man sent off before half time/wasn’t strongest 11 – Alti have been a formidable force.
    Phil Parkinson has done a wonderful job so far at the club and really turned the season around, the team have been strengthened in defence which was the weak point and they have put in a run of 5 league wins in a row jumping up from the bottom half of the table to 3rd place.

    Alti sit just 4 points off the top spot, behind leaders Chorley, so today is an important game with all to play for. They face a Darlington team who sit 3rd from bottom of the table in 17th place, and have lost the last 4 games in a row.
    Last time these two played each other was in August, where Alti put 3 goals past Darlington at their ground – without return.

    The squad is pretty much at full strength barring Jordan Hulme – who’s on a 3 game suspension following the red card last week v Stockport.

    I feel the odds are fairly generous here;

    Altrincham to win
    11/10
    **NAP**

    Have also double this up with Wycombe, who should do the business v a poor Wimbledon side;

    –Double–
    Altrincham
    Wycombe
    7/2

    Best of luck with your bets today everyone.

    Hearts/Hibs challenge week 12
    ————
    After weeks 5-10 of no returns (some close calls, last weekend brought things back into profit thanks mainly to Hibs win v Celtic- that plus the 5 Livi goals brought £73.13 back from the £5 stake; 11 weeks in; £110 staked, £120.04 returned.

    Today….
    A’deen v Hearts
    Hibs v Livi

    Hearts win/Hibs>2.5 mgls – 8.4/1
    Hibs win/ Hearts>2.5 mgls – 4/1

    £5 on each @ Betway (slightly better odds than Ladbrokes.
    ————
    Hearts have Naysmith back after the injury against Celtic in the league cup, but may take him some games to get to match sharpness. His all round presence in the side has been sorely missed, (as well as his goals) as his constant vocals to his teammates keeps them going or gives them a shake. He is also great with the younger lads giving them support. Yes, he is an annoying ***** from oppositions fans point of view, but if he is in your team you enjoy that. Interestingly Zlamal our Czech goalie is replaced by Rep of Ire international keeper Doyle. Although Zlamal has some important stops in the first half v Livingston he was to blame for the penalty, is vulnerable to crosses and doesn’t command his box well; the whole defence, Smith apart had a horror show v Livi, especially Hughes; not only colliding with Zlamal for the 3rd goal but looked like bambi on ice throughout and he is out today as well; Olly Lee starts after a spell on the bench which is another plus as he tries to capture early season form.
    Aberdeen are on a good run after a stutter, and put Dundee to the sword midweek. Dons fans have been frustrated after an indifferent start but such is the nature of the league the 3 game winning streak has sent them above Hearts and within touching distance of the top.
    Record v Hearts under McInnes is W4 D3 L2 since he took over in March 13. Hearts last win there was in 2016.
    Since 2000 HDH at Pittodrie are fairly even HW 10 D12 A11 in all comps. Only 52 goals scored in 33 matches, though.
    No doubting Aberdeen’s threat and confidence coupled with Hearts recent poor form points to a home win, but we are starting to get the influential players back from injury, and by end January we will have more or less a full squad back (barring any new ones) we also have David Vanecek arriving from Czech side Teplice, who will play from January. Injuries have hit us harder than anyone to knock the early season momentum and so expect to see a big improvement early next year.
    ———-
    Maybe Heart ruling head again by singles for me

    Hearts away win (3/1)
    Hearts Double chance (4/5)
    Hearts Win and >2.5 mgls (13/2)

    All Scottish League 1 & 2 matches over 1.5 mgls

      mr h 6 years ago

      If I could compare his style with someone I’d say he’s in the McGeady mould. Quick and great feet with an eye for goal. He’s still a bit lightweight and scrawny, could be doing with bulking up. He’s highly rated at Celtic and big things are expected from him. He’s a talented prospect with it all to do

      Question is are you confident away to Aberdeen and Rangers with him if Edouard not fit?

    • Avatar of Brian Hendry
      mr h 6 years ago

      Definitely confident fraser, I’d rather have Edouard in the team and he’ll be fit for Ibrox at least. However we’ve lost just once in 25 matches against Aberdeen and Rangers and have the best points per game ratio against top 6 opponents this season. Realistically there’s only 1 team that can afford to lose next Saturday, the pressures all on Rangers. The question is are you confident of taking maximum points before Celtics arrival and then avoiding a potential killer blow on Derby day

    Limited card oversees this evening but the later game in Antigua holds some appeal…

    GRENADES VS. ASTON VILLA (2300 KO):

    Grenades sit 2nd top to ‘Villas’ 2nd bottom standing and have hit 3 team goals in their last 2 at home – I reckon they could go one better against a team in poor shape.

    The visitors were beaten 1-5 at home a few weeks back by top side Hoppers but interestingly, Grenades actually came out 2-1 winners against the same side in November.

    Small stakes stuff but it’s not a bad price in a game that ought to see a few goals:

    OVER 3 MATCH GOALS…EVENS

    Best of luck 👍

    Warrington was brilliant, he made Frampton look poor.
    I would pay to see him fight Gary Russell Jr that would make a great fight with Russell Jnrs hand speed.
