Top Football Tips

MY National League swatting didn't pay dividends but I assume Dover's defeat at Aldershot was a bit of a shock.

Goals were probably the way to go and well done to Greg for his Nap and any others who picked winners.

We're still a day away from the start of the Euro qualifiers so it's another quiet night with the Germany v Argentina friendly possibly the highlight.

There is one National League game – Stockport v Hartlepool – and some Under-21 qualifiers.

I've picked out a Thursday Super Single which is Russia -1AH against Scotland and the match preview guys have started posting this week's big games so check them out.

Daniel Stendel, sacked by Barnsley, has been installed as 4-1 favourite with Coral to be the next Sunderland manager after Jack Ross was axed. Mick Harford is second in the betting at 9-2 while Roy Keane 5-1 to return to the club.

Ross did OK but paid the price for not winning promotion last season and overall too man draws. His stock remains high in Scotland though and you can be sure he'll be in thoughts of one or two Premiership clubs.

Remember to check out welovebetting for their video tips and chat.

    Potenza v Rende in the Seria C Cup should be a one sided affair. Both sides are from Group C and are in contrasting positions,Potenza sit 2nd and Rende are stone cold last and winless with just 3 goals to their name in 8 outings. Rende are a youthful side with 22 of their 34 players 21 or under,they’ve have shipped 10 in 4 aways and netted just once. Potenza beat them 1-0 away a couple of weeks ago, there’s been 4 H2H meetings and Rende have failed to register a goal.

    Trying to find a bit of value is tough,win to nil is priced at just 4/7. Betbuilder is an option if taken with over 6 match corners which should be achievable and HT/FT. Rende have been behind in 5 of 8 league outings.

    RWC – Scotland v Russia
    Nothing else but a bonus point win for us this morning. 14 changes as we look to rotate the squad and keep our best team fresh for the game on Sunday against Japan. Russia be playing their 4th game in 2&1/2wks and may tire after all their hard efforts but haven’t been hammered in any game. I can see us running away in the 2nd half though winning by about 30 points and -35 points is the handicap.
    Seeking value again for me and conscious of ref Wayne Barnes being very hot on the officiating:
    Darcy Graham to score in the first 10mins @ 10/1
    George Horne to score 1+ try’s in each half @ 10/1

      Good work on Adams there Gibby. Was screaming at Davies to go over himself for the 2nd though!

    RWC – Wales v Fiji
    Apologies as I got stuck in a meeting and thought it was a later KO so have missed the value tips. Seeing Fiji play some great stuff already and should have been a red card for Wales there. Great game and if Wales can get a grip they should win this but still odds on so no value in play. Jonathan Davies is one of my favourite players and a regular scorer so going with him in-play:
    Jonathan Davies anytime try @ 15/8
    Jonathan Davies 2 of more try’s @ 16/1

    • Avatar of Andy McPhail
      andymac1980 5 years ago

      Davies goes off. No try’s, should’ve had 1, but 2 assists. Great game this and still in the balance.

    Spare a thought for two lads here in my home town of Wigan. 9 months ago, I’ve just read, they chucked in £50 each on a double of Salford rugby league to finish in the top 5 and Jackson Hastings of Salford to be named Man of Steel of the RL season. Both obliged. The lads thought they were picking up a cheque for £23,500 yesterday. But no! Hills are saying it’s a related bet and was struck in human error by one of their shop assistants, who claims he must have been half asleep at the time. Yet Hills are willing to pay out as if it were two singles. What!!!! I’ll leave it there as I don’t want to turn the thread blue….!!!

      It’s probably what’s in the rules but really they should have paid this one – going to be such bad publicity.
      At worse pay the double at reduced odds. Hope they take it to IBAS.
      Problem with counter staff is many are just trumped-up shop assistants there just to take the money.
      In the, ahem, old days staff were more knowledgeable than the punters.

      Had this problem when I used to work in one, regular monitored customer came in and placed a £1000 treble, first two horses won at EVS going onto an 8/1 antepost, staff member struck the bet but before sent to BAC (bet authorisation) and they accepted the bet, months later the antepost bet won and when it come to paying out they refused and said it shouldn’t have been taken, long story short they paid him out after 3 months of him being on their back because of ‘bad publicity’ yet the damage had been done for the 3 month prior ?

    Hi Mr F and other guys, sorry for a newbie question, but wondered best approaches to staking and bankroll management. Are there any decent sources I can read? Do you fix stakes or another method? Appreciate a detailed topic but any advice greatly appreciated.

    • Avatar of Mr Fixit
      Mr Fixit 5 years ago

      I’ve said it before but I’d suggest starting with 100 points – a point is what you can afford.
      Risk to lose no more than 10 per cent a day and never chase losses. Stakes depend on strength of confidence about a bet.

    For the second time in a week, I have placed 2 accas (the first which won) and they have voided the biggest odds leg of the bet citing change of venue. Brought my winnings down hugely. Second time tonight, with Scotland u19s the last leg to play (win and btts) again the biggest selection of the acca bringing my winnings down once again!!!! How is that fair, to make it even worse the selection was still listed INPLAY at the same odds!

    ANGOSTURA VS. MONAGAS (9.00pm):

    Cup action here and I’m hoping it’s not a case of Angostura bitters for my game choice!

    The two sides may not have met for a while after the hosts drop from the top flight, but when they met more regularly, there were certainly a few goals in the offing!

    It’s looking likely that Angostura will make a return this campaign and it could be an interesting match up with plenty of appeal for both sides to net:
