JAN 18: REAL MADRID v BARCELONA

Posted on: 18 Jan 2012

Bernabeu, Wednesday, 9pm, live on Sky Sports 2 WEAKENED sides are usually played in Spanish Cup ties but not when Real Madrid and Barcelona clash. These rivals are meeting as often as the Old Firm nowadays – this is the eight game in seven months – but it’s still a mouthwatering prospect with quality such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo […]

JAN 18: SCOTTISH CUP REPLAY

Posted on: 18 Jan 2012

Dunfermline v Inverness, Wednesday, 7.45, live on Sky Sports 1 INVERNESS have failed to beat Dunfermline this season but should get the better of them tonight. Terry Butcher’s men have been held three times by the SPL bottom dogs but will feel they’d have won the tie at home but for an early sending-off for Kenny Gillet. With 11 men […]

JAN 17: SCOTTISH CUP REPLAYS

Posted on: 17 Jan 2012

KILMARNOCK and St Mirren slipped up against First Division opposition in the Scottish Cup and hope to get it right at the second attempt. The Rugby Park men were a penalty kick away from exiting at Dundee while Saints failed to break down a stubborn Hamilton defence at home. Killie have home advantage as they try to book a last-16 […]

JAN 16: NAPOLI v BOLOGNA TIPS

Posted on: 16 Jan 2012

THERE were plenty of surprise results in Serie A at the weekend but hopefully it will all go to plan in Naples. Napoli are a best 1-3 at bet365 and William Hill to beat a Bologna side who have improved lately but still sit one place above the drop zone. That 1-3 isn’t the most attractive price but one thing […]

JAN 16: WIGAN v MAN CITY TIPS

Posted on: 16 Jan 2012

DW Stadium, Monday, 8pm, live on Sky Sports 1 MAN CITY travel to Wigan tonight and need a win to stop a slump turning into a mini-crisis. The title and a consolation Europa League run could be all that’s left for Roberto Mancini’s men if they fail to overturn a Carling Cup deficit to Liverpool. City have lost three of their […]

JAN 15: EUROPEAN TREBLE

Posted on: 14 Jan 2012

I STARTED my both teams to score treble with the Milan derby and it’s a match I think AC will win. The Serie A leaders are eight points clear of rivals Inter who have recovered from a shocking start with seven wins in eight. However, AC are unbeaten at home having conceded just four goals all season and look too […]

JAN 15: PREMIER LEAGUE TIPS

Posted on: 14 Jan 2012

IMAGINE being a Swansea fan and looking at the opposition teamsheet and seeing the names of Robin van Persie and Thierry Henry. It would be enough to make you spring a leek! Only Man Utd have left the Liberty this season with three points but with that man and Robin up front who would bet against the Gunners. Arsene Wenger […]

ENGLAND: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

Posted on: 13 Jan 2012

BLACKBURN have been unlucky since they beat Man United but have scored in successive defeats to Stoke and Newcastle. Rovers still haven’t kept a clean sheet this season and both teams have hit the target in their last six games. The trend should continue against a Fulham side who followed up their defeat of Arsenal by hitting Charlton for four […]

SCOTLAND: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

Posted on: 13 Jan 2012

I SAID I would leave Airdrie out when they let me down on this line but they’re back in favour. They netted the goal last week that brought up the fivefold – and for good measure went on to score two in the last five minutes in a 6-2 Scottish Cup defeat at home to Dundee United. Now they travel […]

JANUARY 14: SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 13 Jan 2012

LAST weekend we helped pay for all those Christmas presents with a winning SFL treble that returned around 4-1. So let’s hope we can make it a double and beat the January blues by beating the bookies for a second week in a row in the Scottish Football Leagues. We kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and focus on […]

JAN 13: MR FIXIT’S TOP TREBLE

Posted on: 13 Jan 2012

TUESDAY: Real Madrid, Sheff Utd, Fleetwood. WEDNESDAY: Spurs, Espanyol, Roma. THURSDAY: Barcelona, Napoli, Athletic Bilbao, Academica. Three days, three trebles and a fourfold. All correct. I’ve been on a good run and wouldn’t it be great to make it four in a row. Normally I wouldn’t put a treble up with it being such a quiet night but four in a row […]

JAN 13: HAMILTON v PARTICK TH

Posted on: 13 Jan 2012

SCOTTISH football continues its Friday night experiment with a game from the First Division that’s tough to call. Hamilton and Partick Thistle had contrasting results in the Scottish Cup last week but in the league it’s the Jags who have looked better. However, with Accies welcoming back keeper Tomas Cerny who has been a big miss and skipper Alex Neil they […]

JAN 12: EURO FOOTBALL TIPS

Posted on: 12 Jan 2012

IT’S been a decent week highlighted by two Super Singles and two winning top trebles. Buoyed by that success I’m taking on the four games in Spain, Italy and Portugaland Italy tonight and offering up another Super Single and treble. Barcelona are in Spanish Cup action away to Osasuna but how will Pep Guardiola approach the match with his side leading […]

CARLING CUP BETTING LATEST

Posted on: 12 Jan 2012

LIVERPOOL are 1-3 with William Hill to reach the Carling Cup Final after beating out-of-sorts Man City 1-0 at the Etihad. Kenny Dalglish’s men are 4-7 favourites to win the trophy with City out to 5-2. City are 9-4 to come back and qualify for the Final at Anfield and 7-2 to win the Cup and Premier League. Meanwhile, Spurs […]

JAN 11: MAN CITY v LIVERPOOL

Posted on: 11 Jan 2012

Etihad, Wednesday, 7.45pm, live on BBC1 MAN CITY’S fortress Etihad was breached by Man Utd in the FA Cup on Sunday – and they’ll be determined to avoid a repeat against Liverpool. After 15 home wins a row and a year unbeaten, United blitzed their neighbours with a three-goal salvo before hanging on after the break. Premier League leaders City are […]

JAN 11: ENGLISH FOOTBALL TIPS

Posted on: 11 Jan 2012

THERE is one game in the Premier League with Spurs a biggest 6-10 with William Hill to beat Everton at home. Spurs can move level on points with Man United if they win and it’s a great chance for Harry Redknapp’s men to put down a marker as serious title contenders. David Moyes’ Everton will battle hard but don’t score enough – […]

JAN 10: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

Posted on: 10 Jan 2012

I HAD some decent success on this market at the weekend so hope to follow up with another win. There aren’t too many games in England and Europe tonight so I’m settling on a fourfold. I’m going to start with the Blue Square Premier and the clash between Cambridge and Grimsby. Both teams are in good scoring form with Grimsby hitting […]

JAN 10: ENGLISH FOOTBALL TIPS

Posted on: 10 Jan 2012

CARDIFF go into Tuesday’s Carling Cup semi-final at Crystal Palace hot favourites to reach the Final but they may have to settle for a first-leg draw at Selhurst Park. The all-Championship showdown looks close to call but I’d slightly favour the Welsh who have been more impressive in the league so far this season. The Welsh side are a best […]

JAN 9: ARSENAL v LEEDS

Posted on: 09 Jan 2012

IT could be all about Thierry Henry when Arsenal take on Leeds in the FA Cup. The Gunners legend recently had a statue unveiled outside the Emirates but the Leeds defenders can be sure he won’t stand and admire it. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has said 34-year-old Henry will play some part but hasn’t confirmed whether he will start so […]

QPR BOSS LATEST ODDS

Posted on: 08 Jan 2012

MARK HUGHES is already the odds-on favourite to take over at QPR according to Ladbrokes. The bookies make Hughes a 1-2 shot to replace axed Neil Warnock with Gianfranco Zola 4-1. Steve Bruce is 6-1 chance to return to top-flight management. Ladbrokes betting: Hughes 1-2, Zola 4-1, Bruce 6-1, Dave Jones, Roy Keane 10-1, Gordon Strachan 12-1, Lee Clarke 14-1. William […]

JAN 8: SCOTTISH CUP TIPS

Posted on: 07 Jan 2012

THERE weren’t any Scottish Cup shocks on Saturday barring a couple of draws and there won’t be any on Sunday. Celtic and Rangers travel to Peterhead and Arbroath respectively and ahead of the ties William Hill were offering 8-13 on one of the big two lifting the trophy. That sums up their dominance and a Celtic v Rangers final pays […]

JAN 7: SFL TREBLE

Posted on: 06 Jan 2012

IT’S a mixed bag for the Scottish Football League this weekend with some clubs on league duty while others take part in the Scottish Cup fourth round. But that hasn’t stopped us from doing our homework as we look to bash the bookies with a winning treble of SFL teams. We kick off in the Irn-Bru Third Division and focus […]

SCOTLAND: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

Posted on: 06 Jan 2012

IT’S Scottish Cup weekend but I’m kicking off with a Division Three game. Montrose and Stranraer have met twice this season with a 6-0 win for the Blues at Links Park being followed by a 4-4 draw on the south-west coast. Last season both teams scored in all four meetings between the sides including a 5-4 win for Stranraer and […]

JANUARY 4: PREMIER LEAGUE TIPS

Posted on: 04 Jan 2012

MAN CITY bounced back well from defeat at Sunderland by thrashing Liverpool and Man United will be looking to do the same at Newcastle tonight after thier Blackburn shocker. The Reds are unbeaten in 18 against Newcastle and have kept five clean sheets in a row away from home. You can have 3-4 with Paddy Power on an away win […]
