CHAMPIONS LEAGUE: BAYERN MUNICH V INTER MILAN

Posted on: 14 Mar 2011

WHEN your team racks up six unanswered goals in a sizzling home display, you’d expect the atmosphere among your fellow supporters to be a jovial, bouncy one. You wouldn’t, for example, expect to see 300 members of the Bavarian-based police force clash with 100 enraged Bayern Munich fans. Half a dozen goals wasn’t enough to sate the anger of Die […]

EUROPA LEAGUE TREBLE

Posted on: 10 Mar 2011

IT’S the final night of a packed European treble but there’s a chance it could be the most entertaining yet. There’s the general feeling that the Europa League throws up ties that are better balanced than its elite counterpart and I think that much is true with this round of games. Bayer Leverkusen v Villarreal Bayer Leverkusen go into this […]

VALENCIA v SCHALKE BETTING TIPS

Posted on: 09 Mar 2011

WITH the tie poised at 1-1 after the first leg, the big talking point ahead of tonight’s match is the fitness of Schalke frontman Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and whether he’ll recover from a knee injury. If the Holland star doesn’t make it, he’ll be a massive loss for the Bundesliga men with his runs in behind causing Valencia all sorts of […]

MARCH 2: EUROPEAN BETTING

Posted on: 01 Mar 2011

WHEN your manager decides to tell the press there’s a good chance you might get humped in the next match you have to question whether turning up is a good idea at all. Valencia boss Unai Emery told his troubled stars they’ll be “cannon fodder” if they allow Barcelona to dictate pace and possession at the Mestalla tonight. Tackling those […]

WEEKEND EUROPEAN TIPS

Posted on: 26 Feb 2011

Our European football expert, Paul Watson points us in the direction of of some good looking bets across this weekend’s fixtures. Bayern Munich v Borussia Dortmund IF Borussia Dortmund win today I reckon the league title will be all but in the bag. A revitalised Bayern Munich will prove a stern test and with the season reaching “squeaky bum time” […]

EURO FOOTY TIPS & GOALS GALORE

Posted on: 19 Feb 2011

HERE are my top tips from around Europe plus some games where I think both teams will score. Borussia Dortmund v St Pauli A little bit of wobbling from Dortmund as they hit the New Year jitters but their fantastic run before Christmas has created more than enough room for error. St Pauli are on a great five-match unbeaten run […]

GOALS GALORE IN EUROPA LEAGUE

Mr Fixit has already given us his best bets for both teams to score tonight, now it’s our European Football expert, Paul Watson’s turn. Basel v Spartak Moscow – Both teams have fallen out of the Champions League and will be looking to go on an extended run in the Europa League. Basel are having the better campaign while Spartak […]

EUROPEAN GOALS GALORE TIPS

Posted on: 12 Feb 2011

Both Teams to Score  is one of the most popular markets going right now and due to demand, we’ll be taking a look at some matches around Europe that will hopefully help punters score big on the accumulator. The key is two-fold – you want a pair of teams that score a lot of goals and also concede just as […]

SATURDAY’S EURO TREBLE

Posted on: 05 Feb 2011

Our resident Euro football expert, Paul Watson give us his top treble for this weekend’s action across Europe. Osasuna v Mallorca Osasuna shocked Real Madrid last week with a 1-0 win, only the second team to beat Jose Mourinho’s side this season, and they’ll be out to build on it against Mallorca today. I reckon they’ll do it – Michael […]

JUVENTUS v UDINESE: BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 30 Jan 2011

It seems like Juventus have well and truly knackered their season. After being demolished 4-1 by Parma (at home, no less!) at the start of the year, the Old Lady’s confidence looks completely shot. With no hope of lifting the Scudetto at the end of the current campaign, all hopes were quickly pinned on success in the Italian Cup…only to […]

INTER MILAN v PALERMO: BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 30 Jan 2011

Sunday’s European action is very Italian-centric with an almost full Serie A card taking precedent. In arguably the match of the week, Inter Milan are at home to Palermo (who have popped up in my tips a few times recently) and even on paper it’s a tight one. The Sicilians come into this match in seventh spot and unlike most […]

GERMANY AND ITALY: TOP TIPS

Posted on: 29 Jan 2011

IT’S a big day for Ryan Babel who will make his Hoffenheim debut at Schalke after his move from Liverpool. However, he’s joining a team who haven’t started 2011 well and were knocked out of the German Cup in midweek. I reckon the Dutchman will be a debut loser so back Schalke at 4-5 with Ladbrokes. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar is on […]

EUROPEAN FOOTBALL: SPANISH TIPS

Posted on: 29 Jan 2011

Our European football expert, Paul Watson gives us some insight into tonight’s LA Liga fixtures Hercules v Barca A fascinating statistic from this one is that in the last three La Liga meetings between these sides … Hercules have won all three. In fact, it was their win at the Nou Camp at the start of the season which set […]

EURO WEEK AHEAD

Posted on: 23 Jan 2011

WE’RE in fits and spurts this week in Europe so punters looking at an accumulator might have to hold their nerve until Friday. Monday Our first pick is tonight’s clash between Athletic Bilbao and Hercules. The home side have won seven of their 10 league games at San Mames and climbed up to eighth with a big win over Racing […]

SATURDAY’S EURO ACCUMULATOR

Posted on: 22 Jan 2011

I’VE had a quick look at Saturday’s card and picked some hot homes for an accumulator bet. First I’m heading to Germany where runaway leaders Borussia Dortmund simply won’t be caught by anyone, including Bayern Munich. With the title out of the question, the best hope for Bayern is a Champions League spot and they need every point as they […]

FANCY A SPANISH DOUBLE?

Posted on: 08 Jan 2011

LET  me start off by wishing everyone a Happy New Year ­- hopefully 2011 will prove to be your best at the bookies yet. The winter break is still underway for a lot a lot of the European cards, so we’ll head to Spain and start with Barcelona’s trip to Deportivo La Coruna. I ran out of adjectives to describe […]

ARRIVEDERCI RAFA?

Posted on: 11 Dec 2010

RAFA BENITEZ will be lucky to still be wearing his funny socks in Inter Milan’s dugout come Christmas. He’s taken an all-conquering Nerazzurri from Champions League winners to fifth in Serie A and as the Spaniard continues to spin out of control the axe looks set to fall. It’s reminiscent of his last 12 months on Merseyside, where a bumbling, […]

EL CLASICO: BARCA v REAL PREVIEW

Posted on: 29 Nov 2010

YOU could forgive Pep Guardiola for feeling the heat. When Jose Mourinho’s appointment was confirmed by Real Madrid there will have been a slow burn moving inside the Barcelona coach. Perhaps a loosening of that infamous slim-cut tie. A wipe of the brow as a bead of sweat escaped the effortlessly cool exterior of Senor Guardiola. His mind would have […]

MILAN DERBY BETTING PREVIEW

Posted on: 14 Nov 2010

IT’S derby day in the fashion capital of the world but the two teams set for action in the San Siro will be walking tightropes rather than catwalks this evening. Reigning European and Italian champions Inter have struggled since Jose Mourinho left and Rafa Benitez took charge. I know. You’re probably just as shocked as I am… While that might […]

THE ROONEY EFFECT

Posted on: 23 Oct 2010

Our resident European Football expert, Paul Watson, takes a look at the fall-out of Wayne Rooney’s u-turn and identifies 5 strikers who should be on top of Sir Alex’s wish list. I POINTED out the other day that Wayne Rooney would have little choice but to back down over his demands to leave Manchester United in the upcoming transfer window […]

WHY ROONEY MUST STAY

Posted on: 18 Oct 2010

THERE’S been much talk this week on Wayne Rooney’s bust-up with Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson. It’s no real surprise. Step back far enough and it becomes a matter of replacing the grumbling, too-big-for-his boots Englishman with any number of past Old Trafford stars. He’s often seen as the pinnacle of British football management but there’s just as many […]

EURO TIPS: HUNTELAAR WILL SHOW HIS KLAAS

Posted on: 16 Oct 2010

MAINZ are today on the cusp of history. Not content with an absolutely stonking start to the campaign, the Bundesliga shock troops are going for the best opening ever. If they somehow maintain their phenomenal form and beat Hamburg at home, they’ll move onto eight straight wins and surpass the previous record first set by Bayern Munich in the 1995/96 […]

ATLETICO MADRID v BARCELONA PREVIEW

Posted on: 18 Sep 2010

IF I was to ask what lies in the heart of Madrid, plays home to one of Spain’s greatest sides and has been a graveyard for close to a decade for Barcelona … what would your answer be? The Santiago Bernabeu and Real Madrid would seem they obvious answer. However, it might come as a surprise to learn that the […]

Guest columnist Paul Watson brings his European football expertise to the Mr Fixit table. ITALY Serie A gets under way this weekend and it’s all change at two of the country’s biggest teams.
