All of the markets surrounding a high scoring game when Bremen visit White Hart Lane in the Champions league tonight are pretty short on value, over 2.5 goals at 4-9 and no goal scorer at 16-1. This is high scoring spurs at home to dire Weder Bremen. Spurs haven’t kept a clean sheet in 17 and have scored 3 against Arsenal and four against Blackburn in recent weeks, in the Champions league they shared 11 goals over 2 games with [...]
France look good value at 13/5 as they looks to continue the rebuilding process since their world cup disaster. . The French have recorded three straight victories to Group D of Euro 2012 and are full of confidence. Fabio Capello announced nine new names from the group of players initially called up for last month’s Euro 2012 qualifier against Montenegro. You have to wonder if England can play as a cohesive team against a French side who are beginning to [...]
Betting on Carling Cup matches is always difficult, very rarely does a premiership team put out its best side and Chris Hughton will rest several key players ahead of their derby clash with Sunderland at the weekend as the league remains the Magpies priority. Arsenal have a great pedigree in the early rounds of the Carling Cup and would have won it more often if wasn’t Arsene Wenger’s policy to continue to play the reserve team in the semi final [...]
The inaugural Korean Grand Prix takes place this weekend and provides a controversial backdrop to a red-hot championship race. Taking every available second they had, the organisers just about got the circuit ready for the weekend. Just. In practice the Red Bulls have had a slight advantage, but not by the same big margins as in Suzuka. This means that with a good performance on the day the Mclarens and Alonso’s Ferrari have a decent chance at victory. With Hamilton [...]
Blackburn entertain Sunderland at Ewood Park in what looks like a tight game. The bookies make Blackburn favourite at 15/13 – a shade over evens. With Sunderland 14/5 and the draw 23/10 the value appears to be in the draw. Both teams have eight points with almost identical goal difference having played seven. Sunderland have already beaten Manchester City and held Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal in league combat this term, however they rate lower than Blackburn in Gambling Man’s [...]
Shaky Arsenal vulnerable to high scoring Chelsea.
Gambling man has made good money this season opposing Aston Villa but for once I intend to go their way. Despite playing poorly they are doing well in the league and have a good track record in this competition, out of Europe and probably with little chance of making a Champions League slot, this competition was made for teams like Villa to gain a trophy and a European slot as they showed by making the final last year. Blackburn on [...]
I intend to split my bet 3 ways and back all of the outcomes.
Despite not winning the Carling cup since 1993 compared to a Spurs record which includes 4 of the last 12 finals and 2 victories I fancy Arsenal to progress at Spurs expense in the Carling Cup this week. Arsenal haven’t won a trophy for five years and I think a League Cup win could inspire this high quality Arsenal squad to win other trophies. It seems there is a mental block with Arsenal’s at the moment. They keep coming close, [...]
Manchester United entertain Liverpool and both teams are probably disappointed with their progress so far this season. United are unbeaten but two sloppy draws including throwing away a two goal lead against Everton mean they are already drifting for the title and playing catch up to Chelsea. Add that to the dull goal less draw at home to Rangers in Europe. Sir Alex will be bringing all the big guns in for this game which contrasts with Liverpool who have [...]
