Not convinced about sunderland to be honest swansea have enough about them to pick up wins at home.

[QUOTE=Thefonze;390139]

I'm going for a trixie
Everton 9/4
Not sure about Everton, they look clueless at the moment and this is coming from a supporter!

I think Everton as the best prospect of a bad bunch, don't rank Blackburn ATM at all.
Everton have a much better squad and will be looking at this game to kick off their season IMO. Wouldn't take too much notice of last weeks result after their delayed start.

Agreed, not a game to be backing this week

[The Situation]

laying Villa at 2.1 in the opener against Wolves. Don't rate this Villa side much this season and think they could struggle in what will be a bruising derby that'll suit Wolves' style more. Think Villa are particularly weak in CM, Petrov nice with a bit of space but can't see him getting much here today. Bent obv their ace in the pack and his goals should keep them safe this season. Wolves confidence should be sky high after great start and as I said last week they're just a really solid well balanced side that work tirelessly for each other.

Can't see much else this weekend, half tempted to back West Brom tomorrow as they could be a little under rated after opening losses, but thought both performances were excellant despite this. They're recent head to head record with Stoke is slightly worrying though so I'm thinking of swerving it.

Am I reading it right the Scunthorpe have to travel to play Sheff Weds today after playing Newcastle (120 mins) on Thursday night?? Even Newcastle dont play until tomorrow?

If it is today Sheff Weds at 1/1 has to be the weekend banker, Played 2 at home won 2 at home so far scoring 4 conceding 1.

[Percy007]

Both to score in the Villa game at 8/11, kicks off 12-05

[Dice75]

Brighton
Derby
Boro
Millwall

4 homes pays just under 11/1

My bet for the day.

Having a little piece of this

Gonna bet biggish on Derby too at 7/5 VC
They have a poor record against Burnley the past 4 games but they are the only stats in their favour.
Derby County

• One of two clubs holding a 100% record in the Championship, in unison with leaders Southampton.

• Aiming to replicate their start to the 1905/06 top-flight campaign, when they kicked off with five successive wins.

• Kept an unequalled three clean sheets in this division.

Burnley

• One of four clubs still looking for a first win in the Championship.

• The only club yet to score an away goal in this division. Their most recent was four months ago against Derby, when Chris McCann netted their last in a 4-2 victory.

• Not kept a clean sheet in 17 games (all comps)

And a little piece of this. Fingers crossed

+1

They've been shite so far this season, only 2 games in but this is no time to be putting the hard earned on them.

[Flushdraw]

Derby 1-0 down and Scunnie just scored, hmmmm

Edit - Derby equalise, Sheff W grab another to give hope, then Burnley make it 2-1

[dannydiamond]

Blackburn just missed a pen to go in front with 6 mins left!

Job done, shame about the overs in the Villa game.

[Percy007]

Think City could be a good bet at 6/4 today. This is exactly the game where we will see what Mancini has in mind for his season. Will he go out negative like last season in his aways at the top teams or let the players play the game like we have seen so far this season. Spurs looked like a shadow of last seasons team against United and lack creativity without Modric.

6/4 for City just too big for me to turn down.

[Wesley Harms]

West Brom will be too good for Stoke today. 0 points doesn't accurately reflect how WBA have started the season. They could have taken points from the big 2 with a small bit of luck. Add that to Stoke being woeful away from home and 5/4 is a cracker

urrrrrgh. I was all over this as well. Now it gets the Finkle kiss of death. fs

[The Situation]

I really liked it until seeing their head to head stats where Stoke are completely dominate despite their otherwise shocking away record. Hard to know how much weight to give such trends but it put me off backing today anyway.

City haven't convinced me enough *yet* to warrent backing at 6/4. Can't remember the last time they where favs away to Spurs. Certainly stronger this term but have only faced two very weak teams so far. Also everyone seems to fancy them today so it's hard to see that there's any value in backing, saying that I won't be oposing either.

Do like unders in the City game at 2.0 though.

[hotspur]

I think 6/4 is indeed a very good price for Man City against Spurs right now. I see them dominating us pretty badly. It could even get ugly, so Man City -1 seems like a perfectly reasonable bet.

[kaiser soze]

sweating acc. city celtic west ham and waiting on the dubs-3 one time

[The Situation]

On Malaga 5/2 tonight. Ridiculous amount of money spent over the summer, some quality signings, whether they'll click straight away we'll see.

[Percy007]

Can anyone help me? What I want to do is compile a table for the season in a spreadsheet form and update it weekly for teams involved in games with over 2.5 goals. Simple yes or no option and when updated after the weeks results it will rank the teams in a table from highest to lowest. For example:

Team -------------Games played ----------Games with overs -------Percentage

Southampton-------------5 ---------------------------4 ---------------------80%




It sounds clear in my head but I honestly dont know how to go about it. I would like to do this for English and Scottish leagues.

Thanks in advance.

[CheckRaise]

go to soccerway.com

go to the league you want.

above the league table is an option over/under. that table may be what your looking for.

From someone on boards.

In play Corner handicap has Barca -10 @ 10/11 (Bet365). The count is 9-0 in their favour after the first half!

This seems to have been a weekend for the punters on the soccer front. Ive lost count of the amount of lads who frequent the club who had their weekend soccer accum up (mostly 4 and 5 team accums). Take your pick from the fancies who all came good saturday:

celtic
rangers
man utd
man city
arsenal
cardiff
west ham
charlton
shrewsbury

Now too many weekends in the year where the majority of the fancies come in. Did any of ye hit it?

[Raheny Red]

Galway United picked up their first point since April thanks to an 84th minute penalty at home to Dundalk. Had the away side held on for the win I would have scooped €1200 for a 9 team mug accum............

Barce let my mate down for a 12 team accum. Barce threw it away despite leading 2-0 after 13 mins.............

[Warper]

Barca minus 1 v Milan @ 8-11 and Valencia to beat Genk @ 4-5

[The Situation]

Worth looking at the overs in the booking points market tonight in the QPR Newcastle game. All the ingredients of a high one imo. Newcastle topped the premier league booking table last season, Joey Barton did chip in his fair share but he's playing for QPR now so his absence from Newcastle isn't a factor. QPR also recieved the most reds in the Championship last season too. Most of all though Phil "power trip" Dowd if reffing the game tonight. He gave out the most yellows and reds last season and he's miles ahead of the other refs already this season.

Stats 11/12

Yeah it evs 45pts on VC.

The site i took actually included Dowd's charity shield game this year which put him a good bit head of Mason.

Here's last years report
http://www.covers.com/pageLoader/pag...ne_points.html

And last years discipline chart having Newcastle ahead. Wouldnt read much into their three game sample from this season.

http://www.covers.com/pageLoader/pageLoader.aspx?page=/data/prem/statistics/2010-2011/team_discipline_points.html

Funny when comparing it to the rest of Europe especially La liga how little cards actually get shown in the premiership overall

[Opr]

Looking for something will a bit of value in the Barce - Milan match as its most likely what I will be watching.

What do people think of over 50 points or more @ 6/5 with PP ?

Yellow Card=10 Points
Red Card=25 points.

Referee tonight Martin Atkinson has given 4 red cards in his last 9 games and is fond of his yellow cards.

http://www.soccerway.com/referees/martin-atkinson/44515/

Opr

[The Situation]

They're two very placid sides OPR. Barca collected the least cards in La Liga last season and only got about 1 yellow card a game in the CL last season. Milan got the second lowest in Serie A. Van bommel will prob pick one up as he always seems to do in the bigger games, maybe better looking at him in the anytime market.

[Warper]

Just go Barca minus 1 or Messi to score 2 or more but the bookies are terrified of Messi. Valencia look the bet of the night though.
Saw Genk play in their CL qualifier which went to penos and they are a poor side.

[CheckRaise]

I follow a bit of belgium football and while genk can blow hot and cold they are capable of scoring 2 or 3 at home. best avoided.

AC Milan will set up defensively obviously and they have the defensive players to counter barcas threat so I wouldn't be taking barca -1 at a general 4/6.

These both won. Van Bommel was even money to pick up a card in the game with PP which he did inside the first 20 minutes. Didn't back either in the end

Opr

[The Situation]

^^ There was 5 yellows in the game= 50 points. You would have needed one more card for that to be a winner as it was a *over* 50 points line

I just wrote it wrong PP's card index was "50 points or more". Not that it really matters a fuck now

Thinking of lumpage on united tonight. Any reason not to?

[FeetMagic]

Benfica in decent form at home this season, scoring a good amount of goals too but 11/10 with VC for United seems like value to me. Would have them odds on myself.
