MidWeek 12.5 Part II (29/10/08)

When Barnet were 2-0 up last night I was thinking of words like ‘inspired’ but two quick goals and I was thinking of words like ‘frustration’. At least we didn’t lose with the draw no bet. The other game was a loser and if we could have blown up at 70 mins would have had a nice winer but we couldn’t do that and we have had late goals go in our favour earlier this season.

No corner bets as nothing stood out and with managerial changes this week it makes it a bit more volatile. Just one bet.

Valenciennes v Rennes (France Ligue 1: Wednesday 7pm)

I never watch French football and no very little about it but I have been on holiday there a few times and eaten horse for lunch in some rural bar. Something about Rennesdraws me to them time and time again. They don’t score many but amazingly have kept a clean sheet in 5/10 matches this season. Today they travel to Valenciennes who don’t seem to have the home presence they had last season and have lost 6 of their last 7 games. Rennes are unbeaten in 8 matches and if they can just start scoring away can start winning and with Valenciennes in such poor form this looks ideal. Rennes have played 4 of the top 5 times in the league anddrew 3 and won 1 which I think shows their quality. I can’t see Rennes losing and so the 0 Asian handicap/Draw No Bet looks ideal here and with close to evens being offered I am very happy with this and will go 2 points.

++ Asian Handicap – Rennes (0) @ 1.95 on Stan James/Bet Direct (2pts)

2 point staked.

Good luck in whatever bets you do.
