Odds William Hill
 
I don't look at the premiership much, but Swansea look big - they're above Everton, who only have two wins at home. I know Swansea seem to be better on their own patch, but they've picked up some decent draws on thier travels - can anyone talk me out of draw/Swansea at about 5/4? The stats suggest evens or shorter.
 
Your'e right mate, Everton are simply unbackable at that price. Ridiculous
 
I might have an interest in Albion as well. The wheels are coming off at Newcastle & theyve had some poor results recently. One to look into
 
A £2 Trixie for me..

Bolton draw
Sunderland
Spurs
Composite odds of 55.03

Blackburn v Bolton - The bottom two, a derby, a six pointer. I fancy this as a 0-0 or 1-1, neither will want to lose and Bolton have still yet draw a premiership game this season, this could be the one.

QPR v Sunderland - I think the Martin O'Neill appointment will take effect in this winnable game. Signs in todays game at WHL that they're happier, enthusiastic and good enough to win this. Value @ 11/5

Spurs v Chelsea - Night game at WHL, I fancy Spurs with their best team out. Chelsea are inconsistant away, being held by Wigan and beaten at QPR on their travels this season.
 
I wouldn't argue with any of them Punter allthough they're all tricky picks. Its another tough set of fixtures.
I've been quite confident the last few weeks with my picks but fcuk me come Sunday evening most have bombed and I'm left scratching my head, barring the top 4 or 5 sides it gets neigh impossible for any of the other teams to get a decent run together, Stoke being the exception lately as they have put a decent run together allthough I can't see them getting much out of City at the Etihad but they will be one of the first on my list in the next round of fixtures at home to Villa.

I wouldn't even know where to start with Blackburn and Bolton Punt, looks to have draw written all over it but as we know it's not usually the case, being a derby won't help either as it puts a lot of pressure on both sides but more so Blackburn and Keane, and when he's up against it he usually produces, its an impossible game to call.

If QPR play like they did against United then Sunderland stand every chance but somehow I don't think they will, they will be a lot more confident against Sunderland, whethrer it's enough though is another thing and they are struggling to score goals and like you mention; now Oneill is in charge of Sunderland they could come on leaps and bounds, they certainly have the players to do well, in all truth I can see a draw here in what looks like a low scoring game.

I'll go along with Spurs too, more so at white hart lane, something just doesn't feel right about Chelsea, this 'togetherness' looks false to me and they look like they could implode at any moment.
My only reservation is that this is Spurs first game against a decent side since the beginning of October but saying that they have beat Fulham away which is no mean feat, on current form I'd find it hard not to back Spuds.
 
Arsenal look a decent price too, if they can put in another performance on the road like they did against City then they stand every chance against a Villa side low on confidence, even more so if Bent is still out Injured.

Big game for Manu too, It won't be easy at Fulham and this will be a real benchmark to see how much they have improved lately, It's not one I'll be touching mind allthough i do have an incling for the draw.
 
I agree about Arsenal at 1.80. Villa are just poor against the top teams.

It might be worth looking at the goals market for this game too. I have a feeling Villa are on to a hiding some time soon. Spurs could have scored far more than two and the same could be said for Liverpool at the weekend. I think this is the first time Arsenal have played against an Alex Mcleish side since they were humiliated in the league cup final so if they are up for revenge this could be the game.

(I remember a game in the early 1980's where tony woodcock scored five for Arsenal at Villa Park in a 6-2 win. The record for number of goals in an away win in the top division is I think Ted Drake who scored seven for Arsenal at Villa Park. We all Know the form Van Persie is in :lookaround. Just saying like)
 
They are all tough Slick but what else do you go for this midweek?
Of the three shortest prices on the coupon, the bankers are Man City, Man Utd and Liverpool, all three should win but i think at least one will be held to a draw, which one i'm not sure (probably us). So i've left those, it's not a winning treble for me.

I thought i'd look at odds against chances and these are the 3 that suits my bet this week. Chancers admittedly.
A £2 trixie = £8 staked, at those odds i only need two right to at least double my money, if its the outside two then its over £20. Getting none or one right isn't going to hurt my pocket to badly but 3 right pays over a ton. I'm out of form of late so the odds against trixie is a cheap bet.

One other bet that's a standout even money shot is the corners market in the Spurs game. I think there will be at least 14 corners in this game, Bet365 are going evens that there will be 12 or more, i'm waiting for other bookies to put their odds up and i'll be staking a bit bigger here.

I can't see them getting much out of City at the Etihad but they will be one of the first on my list in the next round of fixtures at home to Villa.

I have to admit i backed Villa for relegation yesterday @ 12/1, reason being i cant see them getting any more than 3 pts from their next 3 games. They are only 6pts clear of the bottom 3.
0 and 1pt are a real possibilty. Arsenal (H), Stoke (A), Chelsea (A)
I reckon i'll be laying it at around 5 or 6 in 12 days time.
 
I've taken a Sunderland and Swansea double - it's my crazy christmas bet :dance

On a more sensible tone, I've backed an Arsenal and Swansea or draw double.
 
I fancy swansea, i think theyre a mad price. taken a draw double tonight with fleetwood thrown in on the draw as well, doubles & up

I'm tempted into a DNB bet on the baggies. 2/1 is a big price
 
The Suarez ban doesn't kick in tonight, but the reaction will...

Man City v Stoke

Both teams Not to score @ 1.83 [Ladbrokes]
 
Maybe it's a bit too early in the morning for me and I'm missing something Topdog but wouldn't you get better odds predicting a 0-0.
 
Unlucky with Suarez Punt, should work out that he misses all the City games.:)
 
Pah, we still have Andy Carroll...he scored two passed you last season, yeeaaaaah Andy's the man now!!
:help:help:help

I think he means he's taken the "no" option on both teams to score
 
Oh colbro! Don't give the game away.
It's better to keep slick confused. Gives him something to do all day.

Edit your post quick before he reads it. :lol
