I'VE had a couple of days without a bet and make no apology for that.
However, I do feel something's been missing from my life and I'm backing England on Thursday as they bid for a Women's World Cup semi-final slot.
Phil Neville's side have four wins out of four and been improving as the tournament progresses.
Their last-16 defeat of Cameroon was shrouded in controversy and skipper Steph Houghton is out after being the victim of a horror tackle. Millie Bright has also been ruled out so Neville will be forced to make two defensive changes to key players.
It's up front though where England look most impressive and should have too much firepower for a Norway side that lost to France in the group stage then scraped past Australia on penalties.
England look a fair price at 11-10 with Ladbrokes and William Hill while Norway are a best 11-4 at sportingbet. Without Houghton and Bright Norway's chances of scoring increase and maybe btts instead of an England win is the way to go.
Elsewhere Copa America continues with Brazil v Paraguay in the early hours of Friday morning and you have to fancy the hosts after their 5-0 defeat of Peru. Brazil though are short so consider them -1 at 1-2 with bet365.
And in the European Under-21 Championships, that have produced loads of goals, Germany tackle Romania and France face Spain at the semi-finals stage.
There are six Europa League qualifers with some unknowns and some little knowns. Progres Niederkorn, who beat Rangers two seasons ago, are in there and are 3-10 with BetVictor to beat Cardiff Met Uni in Luxembourg.
It's Wales v Northern Ireland as Barry Town entertain Cliftonville and going by prices it should be close.
Ballymena are also in action at home to Runavik and it's really Greg we need here as he's an expert on some of these teams having followed St Johnstone at this stage for a few years.
A match kicking off in the early hours of Thursday is USA v Panama in the Gold Cup. I watched the highlights of USA's 6-0 defeat of Trinidad & Tobago and it was impressive stuff – fast attacking moves and quality goals.
That's 10 in two games for Gregg Berhalter’s men and they should seal top spot in Group D with another win against a side who also have six points.
For a double add both to score at Germany v Romania. The Germans conceded in all three group games while Romania hit eight in two before settling for a 0-0 against France with both through.
Well done to all the winners last night including Scott with another members bet on the Egypt game.

Would agree with you Mr F but have heard there was a virus in the England camp,not sure if that refers to ”Womens problems” or a dose of the runs.
Maybe it’s on their laptops 😟
Bit of sickness bug apparently but should be OK.
Biggest problem will be the heat but that will hit both teams.

One that has caught my eye for tomorrow and I’m going to do my preview on it now as it’s my daughters birthday tomorrow and I won’t have time
📅Thursday 27th
🇸🇪 Sweden division 1 – södra
⚽️Lindome vs Skovde AIK
⏰6pm kick off
I highlighted the weakness of Lindome previously when playing Tvaakers back on the 6th. Since that defeat not much has changed. They are winless in 10 games conceding 18 goals on the process and 1 on extra time. They have played 14 games in division 1 this campaign and scored 17 goals and conceded 19 and picked up 16 points.
Their opponents are Skovde who sit 2nd with the best defence in the league in playing 14 games scoring 21 goals and only conceding 11 and sit joint top with Trollhattan who are a great side.
Lindome are bottom of the “form” table in that they have scored 3 in last 5 and conceded 13 with picking up 1 single point.
Skovde AIK are 4th in form table scoring 8 goals in 5 games and conceding 2 picking up 11 points.
When I saw the prices for this game I was shocked even with Skovde away from home where they are also doing well (13 points from 21)
Skovde last 11 games have seen them score 16 goals and only defeated 1x with 5 wins and 5 draws and most recent a 4-0 humping off atvidabergs who are much better than Lindome.
A few bets I am on for this game tomorrow will be as follows :
•Skövde AIK over 1.5 team goals 6/5
•Skövde HT-FT 11/4 (HUGE PRICE IMO)
•Skövde DRAW NO BET 4/6 — NAP
Hope this helps anyone following 👍
Wow Wayne Rooney has just scored absolute belter for D.C bit like David beckhams years ago well worth a look

Well the Nordic acronym goals treble landed in the end!
I was snoring like a congested Walrus by half time in the Icelandic game! It was 0-0 at the time but thankfully the game finished 1-3.
In Finland there was a further 11 goals with score lines of 3-3 & 1-4.
Again, happy with that on a difficult card.

Double 23/10 Bet365 **NAP**
For anyone looking for a solid single I’d recommend taking over 4.5 first half Asian corners at 10/11 Bet365 in the Women’s World Cup. Norway Women are a team who concede and acquire corners in equal measures. ALL of the matches in their World Cup campaign have seen at least 5 corners by HT and as you can see from the following stats both teams have contributed to them:
Norway vs Nigeria (3-3) HT
France vs Norway (5-3) HT
South Korea vs Norway (3-2) HT
Norway vs Australia (5-1) HT
Good luck all

Luckily I’m good with flags so was able to work out where some of them are from 🙈
Would be guessing – San Marino and Andorra not my speciality haha.
This season the teams from Andorra and San Marino will go further than Saints.

England team to play Norway: Bardsley, Bronze, Bright, Houghton, Stokes, Walsh, Scott, Kirby, Parris, White, Duggan.
Norway is no novice outfit when it comes to women’s world cup, Winners in 1995 and finalists in 1991 is a decent pedigree. Yes, Norway is without there star player Ada Hegerberg but to be brutally honest England star player Fran Berry may have well stayed at home for what she has contributed so far.
My best bet is going to be on Caroline Graham Hansen to score at any time for Norway @ 5/2 and some loose change on her to score two or more @ 14/1.
