The both team to score and match result markets were made for tonight's games.

Man City and Spurs just over 10/1 double

Never mind, read that wrong

[poprock]

Nasri should see a lot of the ball with City at home to Norwich who will defend deep and will
have their hands full with aguero and negredo

I see the 9/2 anytime scorer as a good bet with nasri playing a lot better this year, nearly back to his old form

[poprock]

Begovic to score first, 175/1

He has really been striking the ball well lately, due a bit of luck and I think
the price is fair

[poprock]

An assist and hit the post for nasri and man city up 4 nil

if it hasn't happened by now, its a bad sign

[FeetMagic]

On Sociedad DNB at 5/6.

[KevIRL]

On Sociedad DNB at 5/6.

Giggs starting in the middle, well in

[FeetMagic]

Any opinions on 7/5 Arsenal DNB at Old Trafford? Tempted to have a big one but might play it safe on 4/6 double chance.

I'm thinking there could be some value in Latvia U21s -1 v Liechtenstein U21s @ 11/10 with Boyles tomorrow night.

Liechtenstein U21s have played 30 internationals, and lost all 30 being outscored 10-120 in the process. In their last 8 games, they've failed to score and conceded 34 If you backed their opponents -1 in all of those 30 games, you'd only have lost just once back in 2007 when they lost 3-2 to Turkey U21s. Latvia are pretty shit themselves but beat Liechtenstein 4-0 in the home leg back in June.

As El Shambo will tell you, i suck at football bets but either way, i'm going to have a go at this one. People might want to back Liechtenstein +1 @ 2/1 instead. That could be value too

[Jam-Fly]

just saw the odds for the Ballon d'Or, Ribery is favourite at evens.

Surely Messi (7/4) and Ronaldo (12/1 in some places) have to be worth a punt? Like I don't think anyone actually thinks Ribery is better than Messi or Ronaldo do they?

The only logical reason to vote for Ribery is 'for a change' and the fact he won more team trophies than Messi. Are the voters likely to follow this logic or vote for the best player?

bleh, Ronaldo odds on to win it now. Messi is 10/1 and Ribery 33/10

[The Situation]

Marseille fielding their B team against Arsenal, back the -1 now before it moves too much.

[westlife]

Celtic tonight?

[Micknail]

Marseille fielding their B team against Arsenal, back the -1 now before it moves too much.

Tough start for you obv.

[KevIRL]

Sigh Ramsey picks tonight to remember he isnt that good

[kaiser soze]

Celtic tonight?

Certainly not.

[KevIRL]

And now Ozil with a shocking pen attempt

[kaiser soze]

should be 3 up shocking,got on -1 at 4/5 was there better at any stage.

[The Situation]

And now Ozil with a shocking pen attempt

Yeah I fairly lumped on, pulling my hair out with missed chances.

[NewApproach]

should be 3 up shocking,got on -1 at 4/5 was there better at any stage.

-1.5 was 2.04 when I last looked with Pinnacle, but that was at least ten minutes before kick off.

[Flushdraw]

should be 3 up shocking,got on -1 at 4/5 was there better at any stage.

Same, and -2 @ 21/10

[White Knight]

Same, and -2 @ 21/10

5/2 now. lump on.

[KevIRL]

At last

[Jibzzzz]

Barca gonna let me down

[Flushdraw]

At last

Piss off you impatient fuck. We're waiting 9 years for things to happen at Arsenal. You're waiting an hour and moaning

[kaiser soze]

Its very tilting because Marseille are so so bad.

[FeetMagic]

Everything points to Leverkussen tonight imo.

[shano_88]

Everything points to Leverkussen tonight imo.

Missing Sidney Sam though which is a big loss.

[The Situation]

Everything points to Leverkussen tonight imo.

I'm a big fan of theirs but prices look right tonight, prefer the 5/2 on them topping the group.

[Percy007]

Everything points to Leverkussen tonight imo.

7/2 Leverkusen and both to score

[kaiser soze]

Tonight punting Benfica 21/20, Shaktar 8/13,Man city-1 4/6 for all the loots.

[Jibzzzz]

On the FGS singles Aguero, Tevez, Rooney and Ibra. Hoping for some double bubbles.

Then City -2, PSG and Real Madrid for the muggy treble.

[kaiser soze]

The mighty leverkussen don't look all that mighty tonight.Someone said on hear that they would be top 4 in premiership easily, im not havin that at all.

If you're only basing it on the two games vs United(which you obv are) where they've admittedly been very poor you'd say they were an average side, but they've kept pace with Dortmund domestically for two years running now, very few prem teams could achieve that. They've also been impressive in the CL this year in other ties, destroyed Shakter at home.

[Iago]

In fairness it was predictable how it was going to go tonight. Called it myself before kick off, I'm on

- Manchester United to win to nil
- Manchester United -2
- Manchester United -3

EZ Game

actually, wait it wasn't Manchester United, it was Manchester City

Confirmed fish

[kaiser soze]

Your right I have watched those two games and they have been awful, so lets give them the benefit of the doubt for maybe been staratruck or something at old Trafford,but tonight there playing against a patch work quilt of a utd side with a soon to be 40 year old in mid field and they are at home in the ground they haven't been beaten in ages and they are still pure muck.Am I right in saying they finished 35 points behind munich last year?and I know munich are exceptional, but imo theres no way they would be top four every year in prem.What I am saying is outside top 2 in bundesliga the rest or not that good.

[Iago]

And City games finishes with City winning by 2. I'm good, I'm damn good!

[kaiser soze]

Tonight punting Benfica 21/20, Shaktar 8/13,Man city-1 4/6 for all the loots.

Nearly forgot fuckin BOOM Benfica 90th minute city 89th nearly forgot I could get bets up in those minutes usually just get done over in them.

[Jibzzzz]

On the FGS singles Aguero, Tevez, Rooney and Ibra. Hoping for some double bubbles.

Then City -2, PSG and Real Madrid for the muggy treble.

Double bubble for Ibra made sure of profit and Aguero was a nice touch.

[Semibluff]

who'd of thought 5 years ago, that Valencia away to Swansea would see swansea faves in match odds & more likely to have more possession also

[kaiser soze]

On spurs to win to nil tonight 11/10.

[Semibluff]

do they have to score for you bet to land???

Fk theyre tough to watch.


Edit - theres 1-0

[Semibluff]

i think a draw in the swansea game isnt a bad bet
both teams are used to high levels of possession. Swans dont have routledge or de guzam in the team, or michu. May struggle for goals - but a draw means they go through after the Anzhi result

big price on the draw but worth a wee punt in what should be a very close game where neither team wants to lose

[kaiser soze]

Yeah they were making hard work of it in first half alright,Tromso pretty tired in second half and spurs quality and fitness coming through now.Bet could have been gone in first ten seconds of match Tromso striker clear through and fluffs his lines.

[poprock]

Cabeye to score first
Cabeye to score anytime
cabeye to get an assist
cabeye man of the match

cabeye to get yellow card { ie does none of the above and kicks someone)

Cabeye got an assist on ff but not an offiical, he crossed the corner
An absolute crime he didnt get a yellow card, he nailed someone on his own box in 80th minute
Should have won a penalty dindt via a shot was handball
They gave man of the match to ameobi, who won two headers,

Pretty unlucky on all accounts,

[The Situation]

Got to like Everton at 5.5 tomorrow night. Aware of their tragic record against United at OT but they've shown signs under Martinez that they don't have the inferiority complex against bigger sides that they had for years under Moyes, very assured win against Chelsea, have prob given City their toughest home challenge this season (in the league), and fairly steamrolled Liverpool in the derby but for a pile of one on one misses they'd have won.

Been generally impressed with them in particular the quality competition within the squad with the likes of Oviedo and Deulofeu coming in of late showing real signs of class, no real area of weaknesses throughout the side. Think they're the most under rated side in the league now, their Top 4 price in comparison to Liverpool is lol, finished higher the last couple of seasons, have strengthened the better of the two yet Pool are 2.36 and Everton are 10.0

[Percy007]

Came across a new market (for me anyway) recently on Bet365. Time of 1st team goal. Tonight im doing a double on:

Everton before 67 mins 5/6
Fulham before 75 mins 5/6

Everton playing really well and scoring too, In Fulham im hoping for the new manager syndrome to kick in and the players put on a performance tonight in a Derby against Spurs who look suspect at the back.

[FeetMagic]

Three small bets - Everton to win by 1 goal 6/1, HT draw FT Everton 12/1 and Lukaku anytime 5/2.

[FeetMagic]

Always the fun bets that come through!

[The Situation]

"Are you watching david moyes?", lol chant at the end of the game. Serious energy levels from Everton, cracking performance.

[Flushdraw]

Cabeye to score first
Cabeye to score anytime

Hope you went again

[Percy007]

Man City 5/6 seems like a good start to Saturday to me.

[The Situation]

Everyone wanting a bit of City today. How short do they go before they become an attractive lay?? I mean peoples reasons for backing City are painstakingly obvious (home form/Arsenals supposed fatigue post Wednesday) which obv would have been factored into the initial prices anyway so I'm inclined to oppose this gamble on them.

[Donk Magnet]

Need Everton here for a 5fold and 8fold accum one time please!!

[Donk Magnet]

[Wesley Harms]

Gonna back united in a few markets today that involves them destroying villa by many goals. Eventually there will be one decent performance, could be today.

-2 @ 9/2 is one

[conspicuous]

Better prices available Kev. I'm on it too with Bet 365 @ 19/10. Swansea look a bit at sea at the moment and Norwich usually pretty decent at home
