Top Football Tips

THERE'S an argument FA Cup replays should be scrapped and certainly this week's ties bordered on the boring.

Fourteen replays and just two that went over 2.5 goals including none out of four on Wednesday.

It was a no bet day for me as I feared the worst but well done to any winners including maccathered who tipped all four to go under 2.5. And what about HullShaker whose goals bet in Venezuela won with four goals in the final six minutes.

Thursday's another quiet one so that gives me extra time to study the weekend card and hopefully pick out some winners.

Antwerp v Gent is the one decent game in Belgium while in Denmark it's Fremad v Kobe.

    That’s certainly the advantage of doing the weekly podcast, all my weekend selections have been made. A case of sitting back and watching the odds tumble

    We advocate this every week but there really is a lot to be said about looking at Saturdays games as early in the week as possible to ensure the best possible price before the weekend Acca betters bring the prices down.

    A no bet day for me – good luck if you’re having one

    I’ll be looking at Fridays card

      Greg I usually have my weekend bets shortlisted by Tuesday and placed by Wednesday and like you say it’s good watching the odds tumble I have had a profitable cash out offer a few times by Saturday due to the odds shortening , the only downside is that team news sometime makes the odds go the other way but I would rather take the chance on them shortening, great tipping this month by the way and love the podcasts , I had the Hibs game down for goals and have done Hibs and over 2.5 MG

      If you bet in shops you have to do it on a Wednesday. Price differences between when the printed coupon arrives and Saturday are incredible.

      I’m not sure I agree with that. I’ve seen loads of teams from the likes of League 1 and 2 play weakened teams and most Championship teams too.

    • Avatar of mark edley
      maccathered 5 years ago

      Hardly mr f,unless teams are going for promotion,they can’t afford not to take it serious,for example if Darlington or any other league 1 or league 2 side get into the third round and say draw Liverpool away then the payday is immense and can make a big difference to a football club,darlington being on tv last night for example will keep the club in money for a while yet.Team usually only make changes when they are playing lesser sides.

    • Avatar of Mr Fixit

      We’ll see. I agree they should be looking at the possible cash down the line but so many clubs now just want to focus on the league.

    Mr F I honestly can’t remember the last time I actually placed a bet in a shop , got fed up with them saying to me there is price changes ( Ladbroke the worst for it imho ) after I had handed over my coupon , at least online you see the prices and know what you are getting , independent bookie I used to bet with was great he would give you the best prices from the racing post , unfortunately he closed due to increased costs for showing live racing

      I probably do it because I walk the dog down there but I never place a bet over the counter.
      The betting terminals are usually better than shop prices but don’t have as many markets as online.

      I used to be in betting shop 4 or 5 times a week picking up coupons and doing footy bets BUT now ever since joining b365 I haven’t been in bookys once in the last year and I’m sure this is the same for many…in years to come betting shops will be a thing of the past.

    Obviously managers keep their starting teams under wraps for as long as possible but when exactly do they have to reveal their first eleven. A day before kick off? An hour? Whenever?

    Europe Friendly 16:30
    BK Hacken vs Norrby IF – over 2.5 MG’s

    International Match 19:00
    Guatemala vs Antigua & Barbuda – over 7 total corners

    Double 13/10 Bet365 **NAP**
    —————————————————————————————
    Iceland Pre-Season Cup 17:00
    Vikingur Reykjavik vs Grotta Seltjarnarnes – a goal in both halves

    Belgium First Division A 19:30
    Antwerp vs Gent – over 21.5 multi corners

    Double 7/4 Paddypower **NB**

    Wouldn’t normally use friendlies in a main bet but Hacken have conceded goals to lower tier Swedish opposition from the Suprettan and 1st division in the two friendly matches they’ve played since the Allsvenskan finished. They themselves are very capable in front of goal and will face a Norrby side whose last competitive match was a high scoring 4-4 draw with Orgryte.

    The corner line for the international match between Guatemala/Antigua & Barbuda is set quite low. Six from eight of Guatemala’s previous matches have gone over 7 corners while five from eight of Antigua’s previous matches have gone over 7 corners. Guatemala’s last match at home was in the CONCACAF Nations League four days ago against Puerto Rico and they racked up 11 team corners themselves with 18 total corners altogether.

    Good luck all

    Weekend Tips
    Brighton v Leicester City
    Leicester City to win at 1/1****
    On paper this looks a solid away win but Brighton tend to do their best work at home,however given how Leicester are playing at the moment and the fact they are second it should give them the edge and they are hard to ignore at a generous evens.
    correct score 1-2
    West Ham v Spurs
    Spurs to win at 3/4
    A tricky game this one for Spurs especially with it being Mourinho’s first game in charge,they haven’t won away in the league since January but i reckon with Mourinho’s tactics he can grab their first away win in what will be a hard fought game.

    Man City v Chelsea
    Over 3.5 goals at 1/1******(NAP)
    Over 4.5 goals at 12/5****
    Over 5.5 goals at 9/2
    Over 6.5 goals at 10/1
    Should be goals a plenty here,Chelsea are doing well but defensively they ship a lot of goals but also score plenty add to that Man City’s problems then we should see a fest.
    correct score 4-3

    Sunday
    Sheffield United v Man United
    Sheffield United to win at 5/2*****(NAP)

    Hamilton v Rangers
    Under 3 Hamilton corners. 13/8 Skybet
    Over 2. 05 Hamilton corners 1/1 Bet365
    100 on unders gets you 262 .50
    130 on overs gets you 260
    So for a outlay of 230 you get a minimum of 260 back . I am using these figures as an example, you could of course put more on . There are other little tweaks you could do to guarantee profit. This is a no brainer imo .

      This is called arbitrage betting and if you do it regularly then you will have restrictions placed on your betting accounts. I know from first hand experience, I now only have about 3 accounts that I can properly bet with. Bet365, Betfair, Skybet have all restricted me. It’s not worth it….

    After a disappointing result on the Ipswich u23 match I’m heading back to Brazil Serie B for a corners bet.
    Sao Bento vs Londrina
    Both teams get plenty of corners, Londrina have got 13 and 12 on their own in the last 2 away games!! Looked at over 11 @ 6/5 with bet365 but prefer the less risky over 11 Asian corners at Even money.
