Midweek Round Up (Week 5.5)

SSS Tips
A lot of the recent hard earned points lost here as -2 over Tuesday and Wednesday. Possibly looking too hard. Swansea won 1-0, Ipswich beat Southampton 2-0 so didn't make the over 2.5 line and Aston Villa beat Blackburn 4-0. Hope to get some back this weekend.

Bets 18, Wins 10, Points staked 6.5, Profit +5.23

Midweek 5.5 (27.11.07)

SSS Tips

Blackburn v Aston Villa (weds 19:45)

Looking at the console for this game the one thing that struck me was how even they both are. Villa's only defeat on the road came at Man City where everyone has lost this season, also they have lost once in the last 8 and that was against Man Utd. Blackburn have only lost against Portsmouth at Ewood Park who have an excellent away record. With 2 evenly matched hard to beat sides I think the draw is a good bet.
++ Draw @ 9/4 on Bet365/Betfred/VC (1/2pt)

Ipswich v Southampton (tues 19:45)

One of those games that just sticks out. The over 2.5 chart is nearly all over 2.5 for Ipswich at home (6/7) and Souuthampton away (8/8). So in 15 games this season for either of these team it would only lose once!
++ Over 2.5 @ 8/11 on Stan James/Blue Sq (1pt)

Swansea v Hartlepool (tues 19:45)

A more risky bet here. On the correct score chart there's a little cluster around the 2-0 and 2-1 mark. 2 of Swanseas 7 home games have ended 2-1 and 3 of Hartlepools 8 away. Think it deserves half a point.
++ Swansea 2-1 @ 7/1 across the board (1/2pt)

2 points staked in total

Monday Round Up (Week 5)

SSS Tips
A small profit on the weekend. Sunderland got pasted by Evrton but still managed to beat them on the corners 6-2 (+0.9), Man City beat Reading with a last minute goal but Reading equalised just before HT so that bet was a loser (-1), Dundee beat Hamilton 1-0 (-0.5) and finally Bochum beat Bielefeld 3-0 landing the over 2.5 goals bet (+.075) making a profit of +0.15.

Bets 15, Wins 10, Points staked 14.5, Profit +7.23

Spinner Rinse
Not just a case of hitting the bar here but more of hitting both posts and the ball rolling across the line and then out of play. All games won on Saturday leaving Chester at Wrexham on Sunday and despite leading twice Chester were pegged back to draw.

Accumulators 5, Profit -5

NOTES

All the data has been updated. There are some midweek games in the championship so possibly some bets. Have some nice ideas for next weekend too!

Week 5 bets (24.11.07)

SSS Tips

Everton v Sunderland

Corners again. I think that the promoted teams often get under quoted on the corner betting and I hope I have an example. Everton have a big +2 handicap to beat against Sunderland. The only way this loses is with Everton getting 3 more than Sunderland and last season and this at Goodison they managed that 8 of 25 times. Last season Sunderland would have lost that bet only once and this season have won the corner match bet at Brum, West Ham, Wigan and Man City and only lost at Boro, Arsenal and Man Utd (the latter two is no disgrace). 2 is a big handicap and I hope it's too much for Everton.
++ Asian handicap corners – Sunderland +2 @ 1.9 on Bet365 (1pt)

I'll try the HT/FT combination again this week. I select all these by looking at the HT pie charts as sometimes they show a good pattern.

Manchester City v Reading

Reading have been down at HT in 5/6 games away and City leading at HT in 4/7 at home. You have to fancy City to win again at home (7 out of 7) and the quote of City/City HT/FT at 6/4 looks very generous.
++ Man City/Man City HT/FT @ 6/4 on Stan James and Paddy Power (1pt)

Dundee v Hamiton

This is the only game in the Scottish First Division but Hamilton are 6 points ahead of Dundee and althugh the play away they've been ahead in 5/6 games away and gone on to win 3 of them. They also beat Dundee 2-0 at home and the price is very high.
++ Hamilton/Hamilton HT/FT @ 9/2 on Ladbrokes (1/2pt)

Also some over 2.5 games stood out. Celtic in particlular for the whole season have been over 2.5 in 11/12 games so even odds of 1/2 looks decet but another game also caught my eye

Bochum v Armenia Bielefeld

It's quite simple as 5/6 Bochum home games have been over 2.5 and it's the same numbers for the Bielefeld away games.
++ Over 2.5goals @ 1.75 on Bet365 (1pt)

3.5 points staked this weekend.

Spinner Rinse

In the rinse we have Pompey to win at Brimingham (Prem),  Swansea to win at Tranmere (Lge 1), Rotherham to beat Shrewsbury and Chester to beat Wrexham in the local clash (lge 2) and Roma to win at Genoa
++ 54.09 @ bet365.
