WIMBLEDON: DAY 8 TIPS

Posted on: 27 Jun 2011

IT was a day of drama in the women’s singles with the Williams sisters and world No.1 Caroline Wozniacki all being knocked out. As a result Russian Maria Sharapova is clear favourite for the title at 2-1 with Ladbrokes ahead of Petra Kvitova at 5-2. Victoria Azarenka is third favourite at 4-1 but the girl they might all have to […]

DE GEA’S DREAM DEBUT

Posted on: 27 Jun 2011

DAVID DE GEA looks set to sign for Man Utd and the Spanish keeper is 5-4 with bet365 to keep a clean sheet in the Premier League opener against West Brom and 33-1 to save a penalty. He is 16-1 to concede a penalty and 66-1 to be sent off. De Gea is 12-1 with Ladbrokes to win more Premier […]

WIMBLEDON: DAY 7 TIPS

Posted on: 26 Jun 2011

BOOKIES are expecting a day of frenzied tennis betting as the last 16 in the men’s singles take to the courts. Ladbrokes and other firms are braced for a busy day with most of the turnover expected to be on the Andy Murray v Richard Gasquet. Murray is a biggest 2-7 with the likes of Ladbrokes and Stan James to […]

GOLF: BMW OPEN 2nd Rd

Posted on: 23 Jun 2011

HENRIK STENSON is just 4-1 with William Hill to win the BMW International Open after starting with an eight-under 64 in Munich. The Swede is one clear of George Boyd who I marked out as an 80-1 dangerman pre-tournament. English ace Boyd is now 14-1 with the likes of Hills and bodog, with Retief Goosen 12-1 after his 68. Sergio […]

WIMBLEBON: DAY 5 TIPS

Posted on: 23 Jun 2011

ROGER FEDERER and Novak Djokovic were easy winners on Thursday and Andy Murray should follow with a straightforward success against Ivan Ljubicic on Centre Court on Friday. Murray is a best 1-10 with Ladbrokes to beat the former world No.3 who has never been past the third round of Wimbledon in 11 attempts. Paddy Power expect Murray to cruise to […]

GOLF: BMW OPEN

Posted on: 22 Jun 2011

RORY McILROY quite rightly has taken a week off after his US Open power show. That at least gives someone else a chance of glory at the BMW International Open in Munich. Home hero Martin Kaymer is title favourite at a best 10-1 with Paddy Power but his recent form hasn’t been impressive and he finished down in 39th at […]

WIMBLEDON: DAY FOUR TIPS

Posted on: 22 Jun 2011

I HAD to settle for a single on Wednesday after tipping a double. Confused? Well let me explain. Andy Murray duly beat Tobias Kamke 3-0 but Milos Raonic retired hurt in his opening set against Gilles Muller so that part of the bet was voided. I’m hoping for better luck on Thursday with a treble on the men’s singles. Understandably […]

CHELSEA BOSS SPECIALS

Posted on: 22 Jun 2011

ANDRE VILLAS-BOAS is 3-1 with Ladbrokes to guide Chelsea to Champions League glory within the next three years. But the bookies don’t expect him to see out his contract at 1-3 (2-1 he does) and it’s 5-6 he wins a trophy in his first season in charge. It’s 5-1 he beats his old club Porto in the Champions League in […]

WIMBLEDON: MURRAY HURRY

Posted on: 21 Jun 2011

ANDY MURRAY has been forced out to Court One for his second-round clash with Tobias Kamke. But the Scot shouldn’t be too concerned at the snub by Wimbledon organisers as he shouldn’t have linger around for too long. The Scot needed four sets to see off Daniel Gimeon-Traver in the first round but won 15 games in a row after […]

CONCACAF GOLD CUP SEMI-FINALS

Posted on: 21 Jun 2011

I TIPPED a USA v Mexico final at the start of the CONCACAF Gold Cup and that looks a certainty. Mexico have been the outstanding side of the tournament so far but it would be foolish to write off hosts America. Their semi-final is first up at midnight (BST) and they’re aiming for revenge against a Panama side who beat […]

RORY McILROY SPECIALS

Posted on: 21 Jun 2011

FOLLOWING Paddy Power’s €1.7million payout on Rory McIlroy’s maiden major victory at the US Open the bookie has opened betting on how great the Northern Irish wizard will go on to be. One man who must have been sweating almost as much as the bookies would have been an absent Tiger Woods with McIlroy now more than a threat in […]

TEAM GB BETTING

Posted on: 21 Jun 2011

WILLIAM HILL rate Team GB & NI as 8-1 shots to win gold at the 2012 Olympics. The bookies think at least 12 squad members will be English and it is there are more Scottish players than Welsh (5-4). The current favourite to manage the team is Gareth Southgate at 7-2 with Martin O’Neill 7-1 and David Beckham 20-1. Meanwhile, […]

UEFA UNDER-21 CHAMPIONSHIP

Posted on: 19 Jun 2011

IT’S been a slow start by England in the UEFA Under-21 Championship – but they’ll have to make a move on Sunday. After draws against Spain and Ukraine, Stuart Pearce’s men must beat the Czech Republic and are 6-5 with Paddy Power to do so. England have drifted to 7-1 with Chandler in the outright betting for the tournament but […]

WIMBLEDON PREVIEW

Posted on: 18 Jun 2011

THERE are only four men worth talking about when the action starts at Wimbledon on Monday. Bookies fear the big four and they’re the players everyone wants to back. Outside of the world’s top four the fifth favourite is 20-1 shot Juan Martin del Potro so you can see why I’m focusing on Rafa Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and […]

UEFA UNDER-21 CHAMPIONSHIP

Posted on: 18 Jun 2011

SWITZERLAND have been one of the most impressive sides in the UEFA Under-21 Championship and should chalk up their third win in a row on Saturday night. Victories against Denmark and Iceland should be followed by another against a Belarus side still with a chance of making the last four. The Swiss are a best 4-5 at Stan James. Hosts Denmark […]

MATCH OF THE DAY BETTING

Posted on: 18 Jun 2011

MAN UNITED’S trip to West Brom is likely to be the first game shown on Match of the Day according to Ladbrokes. The bookies make the match their 5-2 favourite to be the first highlights of next season with rivals City’s game against newly-promoted Swansea the 3-1 second favourite. Wigan v Norwich (16-1) and Blackburn v Wolves (20-1) look like […]

ALEX McLEISH SPECIALS

Posted on: 18 Jun 2011

ALEX McLEISH has completed his controversial move to Aston Villa and Paddy Power have opened betting on how he will fare in the new season. The former Birmingham manager will be determined to silence his critics and Paddy Power make Villa 12-1 to land a trophy and just 5-4 to last his first season in charge. But should the wheels […]

SCOTTISH OUTRIGHTS: EARLY LOOK

Posted on: 10 Jun 2011

THERE’S just 42 days to the start of the season and the first Scottish ante-posts are out. McBookie.com and Coral were first to complete the full set of leagues – followed quickly by Paddy Power and Ladbrokes  – and as far as they’re concerned next season’s champions will be Celtic, Hamilton, Brechin and Alloa. With the transfer window still to […]

US OPEN: TIGER WOODS OUT

Posted on: 07 Jun 2011

WILLIAM HILL are refunding all bets placed on Tiger Woods following his withdrawal from the US Open. Hills now have joint favourites with Lee Westwood, Luke Donald and Phil Mickelson all 12-1. Spokesman Rupert Adams said: “Tiger’s withdrawal will probably be excellent for turnover as without him the field looks open and punters will not be looking over their shoulder […]

WIMBLEDON COUNTDOWN

Posted on: 06 Jun 2011

DAVID JACK gave everyone a cracking lift in the French Open final by predicting the correct set score. He made a compelling argument for Rafael Nadal to beat Roger Federer by three sets to one at 14-5 and now punters will be desperate to hear his Wimbledon tips. That tournament is bit away yet but there are plenty of markets […]

ENGLISH FOOTBALL LATEST

Posted on: 01 Jun 2011

WEST HAM have appointed Sam Allardyce as boss and bet365 have opened a market on when the Hammers will return to the top flight. To be promoted in 2011-12 they are 7-4, 2013 pays 7-2 and 2013-14 is 7-1, Any other season 6-1. Bet365 spokesman Steve Freeth said: “Allardyce is more than capable of getting the Hammers back up at […]

BLATTER BACKED

Posted on: 31 May 2011

PADDY POWER have made FIFA chief Sepp Blatter heavily odds-on to serve a full term of presidency assuming he is re-elected unopposed in Wednesday’s surreal one candidate vote. Blatter is just 1-5 not to be ousted or forced to step down in his next term as the head of football’s organising body and 3-1 that the increasing allegations of bribery, […]

PLAY-OFF PERFECTION

Posted on: 30 May 2011

IT was three out of three for me on the Swansea v Reading game – and five out of five on the play-offs. I tipped Swansea for promotion, Stephen Dobbie to score and both teams to hit the net so it was a great day all round. And Swansea completed a nap hand for me in the play-off finals after […]

MAY 30: SWANSEA v READING

Posted on: 29 May 2011

MY record is four out of four on the Scottish and English play-offs – and I’d love to make it five. So far I’ve tipped Ayr United, Albion Rovers, Stevenage and Peterborough for promotion so will it be Swansea or Reading at Wembley on Monday? It’s billed as world football’s richest game with anything up to £90million at stake and […]

BACK BARCA FOR 2012

Posted on: 29 May 2011

BARCELONA are the 3-1 favourites to defend their Champions League trophy – and I’ll tell you right now they’ll be difficult to beat. There’s no sign of the side being broken up yet and coach Pep Guardiola will be at the Nou Camp for another year at least. Runners-up Manchester United are 6-1 with Ladbrokes and it’s 4-7 they progress […]
