Schalke 04 vs Wolfsburg betting tips

Wolfsburg lost to Hannover 96 in the 1st game of the 2nd section of the season came as a surprise.They will be missing the services of 3 midfielders namely Polak,Medojevic,and Vierinha.

Schalke 04 on the other side won their last match but against a struggling Hamburg who are just 4 points above Braunschweig in the relegation zone.Schalke appear to be plagued with more problem as they risk not having many players play today owing to injury ranging from Draxler,Uchida,Kirchoff,Clemens,Aogo,Jones and Hoger.

Wolfsburg would take the advantage of a weakened Schalke and try to get maximum points here.

Auxerre vs Lens Match Preview and Betting tips

Auxerre will be playing at home against Lens today in the League 2.Auxerre are 13th with 26 points and are looking to gain promotion into the League 1even though this will be an uphill task but their coach Casoni is trying to build a more solid team.Auxerre have never lost at home this season with 4 draws and 6 wins.

Lens on the flip side are 3rd on the table and many punters have considered them as pretenders,only time will tell how true this is.They are with 36 points just 5 points from the leaders Metz.

With only 10 points separating both sides,there hhave always been lots of goals between these two sides with the last match between them ending in in atotal of 5 goals with lens carrying the day.I see no difference here today and I pick over 2.5 goals.

Real Sociedad vs Elche Match Preview and Betting tips

Today's betting tip is between Real Sociedad and Elche.Real Sociedad practise very good attacking game and have been solid at home this season loosing only once.If they continue with this run then they would be good for Europe next season,currently they are 6th on the table.And for this game they will be missing Elustondo,De la Bella,Estrada,Ifran and Granero.

 Elche on the other side are fighting to avoid relegation and are only 16th on the table.They have a poor away record with only 2 wins,3 draws and 4 losses.

They will both be playing an open game today as they both teams need points.So am going to go for over 15 goals.

Lyon vs Evian Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Lyon now plays with more confidence and seems to have found their form which have made them turn out brilliant results over a couple of matches.They are 8th on the table with only 6 points away from 4th placed St Etienne.

Evian on the other have not been doing so good this season and they were only lucky to get away with a draw the last time out.Prior to thi they have suffered 5 consecutive losses and are now on the 17th position with just 13 points.

Lyon is a good side with lots of quality in-depth,they have improved in their form by every game and will be looking forward to going into Europe.Evian is going to be able to do little to stop this team today.So I pick Lyon to win with a clean sheet.

Vitesse vs Nijmegen Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Vitesse this season have been unbeaten in 10 league matches and they are currently 2nd on the table with only goals separating them from Ajax.The fixture today between Vitesse and Nec Nijemeng is a local derby and you expect intense rivalry here.Vitesse have been fair at home this season and have only lost once and drawn once winning 6 times at home.

Nec Nijemeng on the flip side have found themselves at the bottom of the table battling with relegation waters.They have a poor away record having no win in the last 14 away matches.They have problems with defence line also which would serious cause for concern for them today.

Vitesse will give everything to climb on top of the table today pending the result of Ajax match.I don't see Nec Nijemeng causing any upset here today.So am going to stick with a home win.

Lazio vs Juventus Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Juventus suffered a 1:0 defeat to Roma in the quarterfinal game of Italian Cup away from home.This defeat didn't hurt them much as they are more fired up to win the league title as well as do well in the Champions League.

Lazio on the other side have improved with the new coach Eduardo Reja, as they are undefeated in their last four games.They won their last gameagainst Udinese by 3 goals to 2.Lazio will be without the likes of Mauri,Onazi and Lulic who are suspended and Novaretti Konko and Radu injured.

The point is that Juventus is much stronger and if they will not have problems with referee's decisions or other factors, no one can stop Juventus in obtaining their 13th win in a row in Serie A.Juventus has showed so much more this season and there is no doubt that they should get quite an easy victory against Lazio with a lot of injury worries, team that has anyway over performed a bit recently.Juventus should win this with ease.


Guingamp vs PSG Match Preview and Betting tips

 PSG is coming from a surprising defeat and exclusion in  Coupe de France as they lost in the last cup match  against Montpellier.PSG is a strong team with great players but were unlucky the last time out as they dominated and created a lot of chances.They currently lead the table with 50 points.

Guingamp couldn’t do much more in their previous Ligue 1 game, as they suffered a 2:0 defeat away to Lorient last weekend. They are 14th on the table and have only managed a draw in the last 3 games loosing 2.
PSG will be looking to extend their lead on the table so they would wan to win this for sure.Another thing is that they score lots of goals,hence I would be staying with an over 2.5 goals.

Leicester vs Middlesbrough Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Leicester will be looking forward to promotion into the premier league as they are currently leading the championship table with 57 points.They will be playing at home against Middlesbrough today who are only 9th on the table.

Leicester will be playing without the services of De Laet and Chris Wood due to injury,Middlesbrough will also be without Steele and Adomah.

 Leicester will be playing at home which would be an advantage for them as they have only lost ones this season at home winning 10 times.Middlesbrough on the otherhand have managed to collect 16 points from a total of 18 in the past 6 games.

With this Leicester are favorites to win this as they are very tough at home but to be on a safe side I will go with over 1.5 goals.

Friday, 24 January 2014

Brisbane vs Wellington Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Today's betting tip is between the league toppers Brisbane Roar and the high-flying Wellington Phoenix.Brisbane Roar played a goalless draw with Perth Glory in their last league match  and have a little shaky of late as they lost also to Adelaide United.

On the otherhand, Wellington Phoenix are currently in form as they have only drawn 1 out of their last 5 games winning 4 in the process.In their last league match they defeated Melborne Victory by 5 goals to nothing.

Brisbane are going to missing two key players namely Ivan Franjic who is out due to injury and Besart Berisha who was suspended in their last league match against Perth Glory.The absence of this 2 players will be a big blow for them as they might find it hard to score goals.

Wellington have never won on the road against Brisbane.Wellington has a very tight defence line whichh is the best in the league.They have the chance to take something out of this game but we should not take anything from Brisbane as they are a good team anyday.Therefore I will go for a draw.

Fiorentina vs Siena Match Preview and Betting tips

Fiorentina is going to host Siena today in a match that is going to determine who is going to be up against Udinese in the semis of the Italian Cup.Fiorentina have always had an advantage in this derby as they have won in their last 7 meetings and thus Fiorentina would be hoping to do this just as before.

Siena had a lot of time to get ready for this encounter and they have never lost in their last two games at the Coppa Italia and their previous 9 away games played in the Serie B.Thus today they would be looking to get the absolute best result in Florence.

 This will be an unusually close game as both will play to win and most likely desire to qualify for the next round.I would be sticking with a Fiorentina win.

Atletico vs Portimonense SC Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Portimonense good stert this season is beginning to drop as they have lost 3and drawn 1 in the last 5 games.They concede a lot of goals and score a handful as well.

On the other hand,Atletico CP are having a poor run this season and have found themselves at the bottom of the league table.They have lost 5 out of the  last six games played .

When these two sides play there is always plenty of goals.I believe Portimonense will win this as they will try to get back on their feet and find the positive results again.

AC Milan vs Udinese Match Preview and Betting tips

With the advent of the new coach at AC Milan the morale of the team has been boasted as they won against Verona over the weekend.They would  give this all what they have as they know this might be their only chance of qualifying for the Champions League next season as they are currently positioned at the 11th place in the Serie A and a fight for the top 3 seems unreachable for them.

Udinese on the flip side have been inconsistent as they have 5 losses from 8 games.They would also want to give this a fight as they are also on the 15th place on the league table.

You should expect plenty of goals today and AC Milan to win.

Sivasspor vs Akhisar Belediyespor Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Sivasspor will play Akhisar Genclik Spor today in the Turkish  Cup Group A with their manager Roberto Carlos.They have a slim chance to progress to the next satage due to their poor run of late.

Carlos might decide to rest some players because of the weekend fixture against Kayserispor.

Akhisar Genclik are the first in this group with 4 points from 2 games.

This is going to be a tight game but I expect Akhisar Genlik to win this as they are more focused on this competition than Sivasspor.

West Ham vs Manchester City Match Preview and Free Betting tips

With 6-0 thrashing of West Ham in the first leg one can safely say Manchester City are already in the final.
With the strength of City's squad it would be difficult to see any hope for West Ham,they will however want to avoid losing in a similar manner on home front.

If Eden Dzecko starts today's game then he is good bet to score anytime.The odds on a Manchester City win is very low so I would go with City win ht/ft.

Crewe vs MK Dons Match Preview and Free Betting tips

Crewe are coming from a defeat against Leyton and are sitted at the 23rd spot.Thus far this season Crewe are experiencing an awful season and today they practically do not have any chance against Milton Keynes Dons.

Having thirty-six points and positioned in the tenth spot MK Dons are in a much better shape.

When these two sides play the outcome is usually one with lots of goals and tonight will not be an exception as both teams have scored over the previous 5 matches and conceived as well.

Both teams would be missing some players due to injury.Knowing the ability of both teams to score and conceive goals I believe the ideal pick is with over 2.5 goals.

West Brom vs Everton Free Betting Tips, Predictions and Match Preview

In Everton's last 14 league games they have only lost one and are looking like the favourites for tonight's game.In my bet tip tonight I would like to go with a draw just to be on a safe side.Looking at the reverse fixture in August it ended in a draw and I see no difference tonight. Westbrom's last 3 of 4 games away ended up in a deadlock so also is Everton whose last 5 away games ended up in a deadlock.Coming from this I would like to side with a draw.

Swansea City vs Tottenham Betting Tips,Match Preview and Predictions

Tottenham have picked up 13 points from a possible 15 points since Tim Sherwood have been handed Tottenham's job.They have climbed to the sixth position and are just 2 points away from fourth placed Liverpool. Having good form behind their backs, there is no doubt that the team will be coming for all three points here.

Swansea were unable to build up on thier victory over Manchester United two weeks ago, when they excluded the giant from FA Cup with a 1:2 victory on the road, failing to make impressive performance in a 2:0 defeat last weekend as a part of the previous Premiership round.

Seven matches run without a victory is simply too long for them now even though they had a tough schedule recently in the premier league. Poor run have saw them slipping down at the table to thirteenth position with a barren run which now sees them just three points above the relegation zone.

In my opinion I will back a draw at half time and a Tottenham win.

Chelsea vs Manchester United Match Preview and Betting tips

Chelsea have been consistent of late winning 5 games in all competition and would be at home playing a struggling Manchester United.A win for Chelsea today will help them keep up the pace with Arsenal and Manchester City who had an easier game earlier on saturday.
Eden Hazard has been the catalyst of their recent form, and is the host’s top scorer so far this season, with an impressive nine goals in his 21 appearances.
Manchester United will not be expected to win this match as they have a lot of injury worries ranging from midfielders to strikers.United's start to games, both home and away have been tentative and full of uncertainty. They struggle to assert themselves and take a while to get into the groove, something they could well regret here if they don't hit the ground running early. Another loss for United could mount even more pressure on Moyes.

Much better form and surely better atmosphere in Chelsea can’t be ignored this time. Hosts are looking like real favorites in this game, especially when we add problems regarding injured players in Manchester.

Man City vs Cardiff Predictions and Free Betting Tips

The Etihad stadium this season have been a formidable fortress for Manchester City loosing only to Bayern Munich in the process.City have been faultless at home this season winning all the 10 premier league games this season and the process conceding 6.

Looking at the effectiveness and consistency of City and the otherwise of Cardiff City, in my opinion City should win this to nil.


West Ham vs Newcastle Predictions and Free Betting Tips

Of the 8 games played by Westham this season they have only managed to win one.

Newcastle of late have been on the loosing streak but are favourites to win this.

Previous meetings of these 2 sides have ended with few goals. Newcastle have been unable to score goals this season going  280 minutes without scoring any goals, while Westham have also defended well leaving us with an under 2.5 goals tip for this match.


Liverpool vs Aston Villa Match Preview and Betting tips

  Liverpool will be keen to win this match against a struggling Aston Villa in order to keep up with the top 3 teams in the race for the premier league
From 21 games this season Liverpool have collected 42 points in the process scoring 51 goals and conceding 26. Suarez is the man on fire this season and I would fancy a bet for him to score 2 or more goals. 
Aston Villa are 11th with 23 pts from 21 games, which is surprising considering this team perform worst than a championship team at times and have won once in their last 5.
 Aston Villa have been worst than a championship team and are lucky to occupy the 11th position collecting 23 pts from 21 games. 
 Villa’s last 2 games at anfield have seen a win and a draw and Benteke can score against any team on his day.
 A both teams to score in my opinion represents a better value as the bookies are giving nothing away on home teams this weekend as they struggle to find real value.

Nancy vs CA Bastia Match Preview and Betting tips

CA Bastia are the whooping boys of the League 2 this season and already have relegation steering at them in the face.In 19 league games they have only managed to win 1 game loosing 12 and drawing 6.

This season Nancy would be hoping for a come back to the League 1 as they were relegated from there last season.They undoubtedly have the killer squads in the League 2 and should destroy most of the teams in this league though they have a problem upfront scoring goals.I expect Nancy to win this.

Melbourne Heart vs Newcastle Jets Match Preview and Betting tips

Temperatures today in Australia are expected to be very high in a battle for the bottom which would see Melbourne Heat host Newcastle Jets.

After playing 14 games this season Melbourne is still without a win despite their improved performance lately.They will also be motivated by the fact that in their previous 3 meetings against Jets they have taken 7 points.They would be boosted as all their regulars are with no injury worries. 

On the flip side however,the guests would be missing a couple of their key players and this is expected to affect them.I expect an home win here ending probably in 2:1 or 3:2.

Villarreal vs Sociedad Match Preview and Betting tips, Spain Copa del Rey

 For the third time in 7 days Villarreal is going to meet Real Sociedad, the first leg of Copa del Rey resulted in a goalless draw, while the yellow submarine was better than their visitors today in a 5:1 win on Monday evening. First game held in San Sebastian was basically equal with neither of them desiring really to risk a great deal.

Although the first game appeared to be remarkably tactical and the hosts appeared like caring only about their clean sheet, second game played as a part of Primera’s final round, went absolutely one sided in the favor of Villarreal.
Villarreal have witnessed under 2.5 goals in 7 of their previous 8 matches against Real Sociedad.
Having in mind their past game merely few days ago, it’s difficult to witness anything but a home triumph. They were so excellent 3 days back that they are worthy of being supported once more at appetizing odds.

Morocco vs Burkina Faso betting tips and Match Preview

Burkina failed to display substantially in their opener against Uganda and lost deservedly. Coach Brama Traore afterwards publicly stated they were shocked with the quality of Ugandans. Now they need to go all for the win against perhaps tougher Moroccans.They will get a support} striker Sango, but as we've observed, defence is usually their big problem, not necessarily attack.

Morocco could not find a way to crack defensive Zimbabwe, however they'll get the desired space in this game. Skills ought to play a role, players from Africa's leading clubs such as Raya or Wydad will for certain have an edge over Burkinabe youngsters. They'll get strenghtened by two quality players, full back Karrouchy as well as midfielder Fettah, both capped with A-team.

Appears to be another fantastic opportunity to make the  bucks we can't on our regular jobs.

South Africa vs Mali Match Preview and betting tips

The difference between these teams is a lot bigger than bookmakers assume. South Africa is a huge favorite for gold, Mali only a fair team which was rather fortunate in their opening match against Nigeria. If perhaps hosts go by 100 % here, and all sorts of sources advise they will, it's difficult to count on anything but a win.

They conceded an early goal on Saturday, however changed the result over beatifully, with some superb moments coming from Kekana, Tshabalala and Parker. Malians experienced a much more difficult task, fought from the beginning to the finish and that might feel today, given their physical style of play. Obviously, Bafana bench having Langerman, Mere, Mbatha, Manqele is uncomparably stronger.

Coach Igesund mentioned prior to the tournament that they primarily wish to win matches against higher rated FIFA teams Mali as well as Nigeria in order to get more desirable draw for following year's AFCON. They're at home, facing an incredible audience, remarkably encouraged and playing against low quality opposition.

Bordeaux vs PSG betting tips 14 January Coupe de la Ligue By Neuro

Bordeaux is coming from a 0:1 narrow loss at home against Toulouse on Saturday evening in a very weird game overall. Visitors stood with a player less from 25th minute, but the hosts got their players excluded too, when Poundje got a red card in 34th minute, while the visitors while awarded a penalty which they missed in the next minute.

Even though the game itself was quite equal, with rare real goalscoring chances, but the visitors still pulled out three pointer with a goal at the beginning of the second half. After this defeat, team is still at decent eight position with only three points below St Etienne which is fourth at the table. Even though they still have a chances of qualifying to Europe via league, they would surely be happier to secure it earlier with league cup competition and in case of a victory against PSG, they would be really close to get it. Young left back Poundje (9/0) is suspended, while strikers Diabate (15/7) and Jussie (15/5) are once again unavailable.

PSG, on the other side, is coming from a very difficult 2:1 victory away to Ajaccio on Saturday evening. Home side took the lead already after sixth minute, while the visitors had problems creating true goalscoring chances but still managed to get the three pointer with goals from Lavezzi and Matuidi.

During the same round, Monaco slipped with a draw, so the difference between PSG and second placed Monaco rose to five points, as the team now looks like a rock solid candidate for the title, as third placed Lille suffered defeat. The team remained in all competitions so far, as they previous won over Brest 5:2 in French Cup, while their target in this game is nothing less but getting a spot in the semifinals of League Cup competition. Coach Blanc might refresh up his squad a bit, while talented attacking midfielder Rabiot (17/1) will be out after suffering injury on Saturday. Right back Jallet (8/1) is already long term absentee.

PSG has won last three matches against Bordeaux.
PSG will surely start the game with some of their star players in offensive line and once the team starts pressing, they will surely find a way to score. Whenever they score, this should open up the game as Bordeaux simply has nothing to lose and will also try to find their rhythm in offensive phases.

Atletico Madrid vs Valencia betting tips 14 January Spain Copa del Rey By Neuro

Atletico Madrid gave a pretty good game to Barcelona at home on Saturday evening, despite the fact that they didn’t have much of the ball possession. Still, it’s a positive result as they played against one of the strongest sides in the World, while the team kept their chances of winning the title this season.

With this draw behind their back, they continued being tied with Barcelona at the first position with 16-2-1 record, while Real Madrid keeps following them with three points difference. That was their second consecutive draw, as Atletico previously drew 1:1 on the road against Valencia in the first leg of Copa del Rey and now have a perfect chance of reaching the quarterfinals stage. No doubt that the target of the team is trying to reach the title in every possible competition, including this one. Home side coach Simeone has no particular injury worries for this game as Suarez got back to the full trainings and could get a place on the bench, while the only concern is fitness of Tiago (14/2) who is coming from ankle injury and is still not fully fit.


Valencia, on the other side, is coming from a disappointing loss to Celta 2:1 on the road, even though they had a 1:0 lead from 23rd minute with a goal from Parejo that they have kept till the halftime whistle. However, second half changed all as the hosts completely changed their tactics and managed to score two goals with many more concrete chances created.

That loss is more disappointing as it seems that the squad didn’t bounce back in a positive way since the coach Djukic got sacked and it seems that Valencia simply can’t find their right rhythm this season. Their position at the table isn’t at satisfying level as the team is already eight points below the European Cups ticket and are also seeing this Cup game as a chance to get the ticket more easily. Visitors will be without Ruiz (defender, 9/1) and Mathieu (defender, 17/1) who were both knocked out from the pitch in a game in Vigo, while midfielder Banega returns back to the starting lineup after recovering from injury.

Atletico Madrid is undefeated in last eighteen matches.
Valencia will have to attack here sooner or later and whenever they do that, it’s hard to see them remaining confident at the back. Atletico has simply showed much more this season and everything except them dominating this game would be a huge surprise. Whenever they score, the game will additionally open up and everything except easy qualification will be surprising here.

Aston Villa vs Arsenal betting tips

Arsenal is going to rtavel to Villa Park in order to captivate Aston Villa, the team which inflicted defeat on them during the starting game of the season, a blunder Wenger is going to be keeping to get right.

Villa sit Eleventh place in the table with 23 pts from 20 games hence is definitely not feeling the stress of the relegation struggle therefore the can certainly go into this game with little anxiety since they don't precisely have to have these points like say as an illustration West Ham or Sunderland. It has not gotten to that phase} for them as yet and I'm certain followers are going to be wishing} they by no means get to that phase this season. However, this is the premier league and perhaps they are no freebies thus Villa will fight for at least a point here.

Gunners are going to be eager to maintain top spot realizing that Chelsea as well as Manchester City already triumphed in this weekend pushing them to 3rd, a win at this point would certainly reestablish them to the summit of the league, if this can not offer necessary inspiration in that case very little else will.

Theo Walcott's absence will be a setback for Arsenal nonetheless they really should have adequate firepower to negate his absence if they play to the standard we have come to anticipate from them.

Liverpool, Everton, Spurs and Manchester United have come here and left with wins to zero. Arsenal  can simply do the same against a team with the 2nd most awful home record. Villa average not more than a goal a game having 7 goals in 10 at home.

The stat that jumps out at me at this point is that Arsenal are undefeated in 14 outings to Villa Park, winning 7 and drawing 7. Villa have been thrown out out of the FA Cup by Sheffield Utd, conceding 2 times.

It is possibly Arsenal or no play here , don't fancy overs or btts here either. I |forecast a 1-0 or 2-0, hence} I'm leaning in the direction of -1AH because this is the best pre game shout I can come across.


Brest vs Lens Predictions and Betting Tips

 In the France Ligue 2 this Season, 50% of Brest home games have finished with both teams scoring. 66.67% of Lens away games have finished with both teams scoring. The average percentage of this both teams to score tip for this week between Brest vs Lens is 58%. Both teams should score here.

Man United vs Swansea City Betting Tips Predictions and Preview

There is a certain revision of anticipations with Manchester Utd this season in which most people have to keep making.  They don’t lose 2 games in a row at Old Trafford?  It happened.  They don’t lose 3 games in a row, total?  It happened.

Now they confront the team which beat them during that run previous Sunday during the FA Cup, Swansea.  Can they pile on even more woes for Utd supporters by simply managing to win a second time at the former fortress of the league champs?


Many individuals are generally saying yes, however I’m looking at the league table which indicates the Swans in Thirteenth spot} and having triumphed in just 5 from twenty games; I actually can’t tip them in our Man United vs Swansea betting tips to present any kind of steadiness and win yet again. On the other hand, after Man Utd recently lost to Sunderland, the team at the bottom of the Premier League, there’s absolutely no way} I’m backing them to right themselves on Saturday.

That certainly is why 7/2 for the draw sticks out in my opinion as a betting tip; an outcome in which Swansea would be very pleased with, and don’t forget that it was the red card for Utd’s Fabio that inspired Swansea to go for the win previous time.  Otherwise for that, I’m certain they would have been pleased with a replay back at the Liberty Stadium.

Although Swansea possess the ball skills as well as technical capability to take charge of a game, the physicality of Wilfried Bony caused significant trouble for Utd’s back four.  I can see him adding to his winning goal from then and notching again right here.

I’m not seeing any regularity from Utd’s forward players |recently, primarily as a result of  injury, however I prefer the threat and movement of Javier Hernandez towards Swansea’s defence, particularly when he arrives as a substitute in the 2nd half.  He’s a superb punt at 5/1 to take advantage of any errors if Utd are chasing the game against a tiring opposition.

Lastly, I’m going to add that draw result for my final prediction with my perception that both teams will find the net in this game, and 5/1 is good enough for me.

Hull City vs Chelsea Betting Tips, Prediction and Preview Today

 The earliest game out of this weekend’s Premier League schedule proceeds from the KC Stadium as Hull City host Chelsea in the 12:45 kickoff.



Both sides managed to get through previous weekend’s FA Cup 3rd round with 2-0 away victories at Championship sides, Hull seeing off Middlesbrough while Chelsea stuttered relatively to get the task carried out at Derby.

Both sides is going to be absolved to have produced the hat for the 4th  round draw, however for now focus returns towards the Premier League as well as my own betting tips for the match. Hull, |maybe quite a few individuals surprise package, find themselves in 10th place in the table while the 2nd half of the season progresses into action. All their followers will probably without a doubt be satisfied with  the way they have adapted to the leading flight, even though it is quite tight below them along with a handful of poor results might see them slip into difficulty. Chelsea |on the flip side tend to be right in the thick of it at the very top, and might find themselves in1st place with a win along with other results going their way this end of the week.

They will undoubtedly fancy their possibilities in this one, although should not take lightly a Hull side who have} scored 6 in their past home encounter against, another West London side in Fulham. With title competitors Manchester City facing a challenging test away at Newcastle, as well as Arsenals injury list growing lengthier by the week Chelsea |might find this as an opportunity to stamp their claim on a 1st title since 2010.

Hull’s defenders will probably want to pay nearly all of their attention to Chelsea’s midfielders with regards to keeping the ball from their net, since the Londoners went through {the whole|the entire of 2013 without having a striker getting on the score sheet away from home in the Premier League. That hoodoo has already been broken |this current year when Fernando Torres scored in their 3-0 win at Southampton on New Years Day, and also the Spaniard can be backed at 17/10  to replicate that feat during this game.

It really has been Chelsea’s wealth of skills in midfield that have provided the majority of their goals this season. Eden Hazard can be found at 11/4  to score anytime, and Oscar at 13/5 .

Hull are no strangers to the goal themselves as exhibited through their dismantling of Fulham. Chelsea will for sure give a} sterner test however both teams to score should be a great bet to consider .

During the reverse fixture on the starting day of this season Chelsea saw in Jose Mourinho’s 2nd spell in control having a cozy 2-0 win against the Tigers.

I envision this to be a little tighter, as Hull |is going to be filled with self-belief, |particularly given the fact that they pushed Manchester United close not too long ago as well as defeat Liverpool at the KC recently in the season.

Weekend Football Betting Tips Everton vs Norwich Predictions and Free Betting Tips



Football betting tips for Everton versus Norwich during the Premier League on Saturday making use of match preview as well as best free bet tip for that fixture.

Everton host Norwich,in which the home side have witnessed the guests to be a bogey side particularly in the previous five meetings. Everton has not had the opportunity to defeat Norwich in  5 tries, and can they end this kind of |marque?


Everton have now conceded over the previous 4, but they have not really conceded more than one goal in a game over the previous six. Norwich in |10 away games have mustered only 7 goals, |and also shipped 22. Everton at their home have conceded only  9 goals with 10 home games having 6 victories, 3 draws then one loss!

Fascinatingly over the previous 6 Norwich have not lost wit} more than one goal, which might be a tight situation for the reason that 4 of the previous 5 Everton games have got a related  figure!

Everton to win to zero does indeed attract on the ground that Everton have conceded not more than a goal a game, |and also Norwich have netted an average of somewhat |fewer.

All right, |the actual figures within the last 6 may well indicate both teams will score, however} at odds of 11/8 for just a win to zero |in comparison with a 2/5 match result implies a shade of value in contrast!

Both Teams to Score and Match Result Betting Tip for Saturday| By Alex Peace

Both Teams to Score and Match Result Treble Betting Tip

Tottenham to beat Crystal Palace and Both Teams to Score 23/10:

We start at White Hart Lane and a Tottenham side who will want to put their FA Cup exit at the hands of Arsenal behind them. Sherwood’s men are unbeaten in four and have lost just one of their last eight matches now. However, they’ve kept just one clean sheet in that time and their open style means they are vulnerable at the back. Palace have been in better form of late and have managed to find the net in five of their last seven games. After early predictions of Palace being cut adrift they are now competing but against Spurs’ attacking talent, they should fall to a defeat, not without scoring though.

Middlesbrough to beat Blackpool and Both Teams to Score 4/1:

To the Lancashire Coast next as Boro travel to Blackpool. Karanka’s men are unbeaten in their last four matches with three victories in that time. However on the road Boro have kept just one clean sheet in their last eleven matches. They take on a Blackpool side who have lost six of their last seven with no wins in that spell. They have found the net in five of their last seven at home but their injury list and tiny squad should seem them overwhelmed here.

MK Dons to beat Shrewsbury 11/4:

MK Dons’ football has gained a lot of admirers in recent seasons with Robinson’s men playing attractive attacking stuff, it does only see them in mid-table but just six points off the Play-Offs. They’ve lost just one of their last five matches and just three times at home all season. They have kept just three clean sheets in eleven games at home this season. Shrewsbury sit just two points clear of the drop zone and have won just one of their last six matches. On the road though they’ve found the net in their last four matches but have won just twice on the road this season. Dons are a match for anyone at home and I expect them to win here, their shaky defence should let them down again though.

Football Accumulator Tips for Saturday, Football Accumulator Tips Today By Alex Peace

After the drama of the FA Cup, league football returns throughout the Football League this weekend. We have a 14/1 accumulator betting tip for the action.

Accumulator Betting Tip

Everton to beat Norwich 2/5:

We start at Goodison and an Everton side who have gained many admirers this season. Martinez’s men have lost just one of their last thirteen matches and have lost just once at Goodison this season as they look like real contenders for the Champions League. They take on a Norwich side with just one win in their last seven matches and who sit just three points off the relegation zone. Norwich have won just twice on the road this season and up against a strong Everton team a home win should be on the cards here.

Middlesbrough to beat Blackpool 13/10:

Our Championship fixture sees Middlesbrough travel to the West coast to face a Blackpool side in turmoil. Paul Ince’s men are without a win in seven and have lost six in that time. A foulmouthed tweet by forward Michael Chopra in the week won’t have helped and things are looking bad for the Tangerine’s after a bright start. Boro’s decision to change manager finally looks to be paying off with Karanka’s men unbeaten in four in the league. With Blackpool struggling on and off the pitch, Boro should take full advantage and pick up three points with the result taking them above their opponents.

Brentford to beat Port Vale 1/2:

Brentford were going great guns under Uwe Rosler and his departure to Wigan could have toppled their rampant charge up the league but it really hasn’t with the Bees looking good at the top of League One. They are unbeaten in thirteen matches with an astonishing twelve wins in that time. They’ve won their last seven at home and are currently four points clear of the Play-Offs. It hasn’t been a bad year for Port Vale who sit two points off the Play-Offs. However, they have lost their last two on the road, conceding six goals in the process and against one of the league’s best sides, it should be three on the spin.

Leyton Orient to beat Carlisle 3/5:

From first to second in League One and Leyton Orient. The Os are just a point adrift of Bretford and are in decent form. They’ve lost just one of their last eight matches and just twice at home this season. They play Carlisle, who are just three points clear of the drop zone. With just one win in their last five and no wins in five on the road, a professional performance from Orient should see them pick up another good win.

Oxford to beat Portsmouth Evens:

Our League Two selection sees Oxford host Portsmouth. Oxford are currently sixth but just three points off an automatic promotion spot. Before two recent defeats they were unbeaten in six matches and they will want to return to winning ways. They will be hopeful of doing so against a Portsmouth side with just one win in their last ten matches. They haven’t won away from home in their last seven and are struggling. Oxford should take full advantage and relight their promotion push.

World Cup 2014 Betting Tips: Can Brazil Win the World Cup? By That's a Goal

The World Cup in Brazil next summer promises to be spectacular and the hosts are current favourites in the latest World Cup 2014 betting odds, but can Brazil win the World Cup?

Brazilian football has always been praised and now Brazil can show of their skills at hosting a major tournament next summer. In the current World Cup betting they are a best price 7/2.

To win the World Cup, which is what many will be expecting in the South American country, they will have to face up to a few hindering issues.

Three Reasons Brazil Will Not Win the World Cup

Pressure.

South American fans are bonkers about their football it allows an escape from everyday life. The Brazilian army will be expectant but with Spain and Germany in the competition the pressure on the team to perform against these talented sides will force some fanatical South Americans to face the facts that it may not be a stroll in the park.

Experience.

Despite being regarded as one of the best teams in the world and have possession of great previous experience and history Spain have dominated recent tournaments in Europe and at the World Cup, having won Euro 2008, World Cup 2010 and Euro 2012 in succession. Brazil did win the Confederations Cup thanks largely to a player of the tournament display from Neymar, but can the rest of the squad live up to the hype at Brazil 2014?

Ability.

Brazil aren’t the same side that won the World Cup in 2002 and many have been questioning their ability as a whole squad and whether they have the firepower to win a World Cup. Neymar is a world class player at his young age and Fred scores goals but they do have weaknesses and the midfield could be an issue against the stronger nations next summer. The likes of Lucas Leiva is plagued by injury and Luiz Gustavo hasn't been able to hold down a starting place for his club. Paulinho could turn out to be a key figure for Brazil.

Sunderland vs Manchester Utd betting tips for Capital One Cup By Isaiah

Sunderland won over Carlisle 3:1 at home on Sunday evening and progressed to the next stage of FA Cup, but will now look to make a major upset as they host Manchester United and make a strong step to the finals of Capital One Cup and a game at Wembley Stadium.

Their victory was completely deserved, but only sealed with a third goal in the last moments of the game. Still, the team used this victory to improve the morale a bit, as they are coming from a previously lost game at home against Aston Villa. Even so, the atmosphere in the locker isn’t the best one, as the team still sits at the last position in Premier League with only fourteen points earned, which is four points less than teams on safe position. Black Cats will have only two missing players for tonight’s game, as they miss out central defender Cuellar (3/0) and goalkeeper Westwood (10/0) already for few weeks. O’Shea has recovered from shoulder injury and is expected to partner Brown at the back of the home defense.

Manchester United on the other side, lost at home to Swansea with the score of 1:2 and made another negative surprise to all of their fans. Being kicked out of the FA Cup, this game and this competition remains as one of the bright spots for the team and surely, a great chance to bring some joy to their fans in less than average season for them for now.

It was their second consecutive defeat, as the Red Devils were also defeated in the previous Premier League game when they welcomed Tottenham and lost it with a 1:2 result. These two results broke a positive run of six victories of them in all competitions and once again proved that the things aren’t the same without their legendary coach Ferguson. They will also have a number of injury worries in front of the clash, as they continue to miss out van Persie (11/7), Fellaini (8/0), Ferdinand (7/0), Young (10/1), Jones (13/0) and Nani (8/0) who are all sidelined injured, while Wayne Rooney (17/9) is a doubt and may not be risked. Right defender Fabio (1/0) is suspended after receiving a red card against Swansea.

Manchester United has won last six matches against Sunderland.
Visitors from Manchester have one of rare chances to do something memorable in this season and get the Capital One Cup. Even with several players out, they still have the quality to win in ninety minutes against a side that surely has much more things to worry about in Premier League. Bet Manchester United win.

Blackburn Rovers vs Manchester City Betting Tips and Predictions By Mike Kennedy

Football betting tips for the FA Cup clash between Blackburn and Manchester City on Saturday along with a match preview as the Championship side look to cause an upset.

It's the start of a New Year and with it beckons the start of the FA Cup as far as Premier League and Championship sides are concerned. Here's a match preview and football betting tips for Manchester City's third round visit to Blackburn this Saturday.

Hosts Blackburn had a decent return from the congested Christmas fixtures recording three wins, two draws and just the one defeat; with their most recent game - a 2-1 away win over Leeds on New Year’s Day - leaving them currently occupying 10th place in the Championship.

Rovers will be looking for improved circumstances in the New Year after a turbulent 2013 - this time last year they were without a manager after short-serving Henning Berg had been sacked over the Christmas period and he was followed out the door soon after by his replacement Michael Appleton.

Having seemingly steadied the ship somewhat current coach Gary Bowyer will be hoping his side can spring a surprise on the Premier League title-contenders. When these sides met in the FA Cup Quarter Final back in 2007 it was Blackburn who progressed, finishing two goals to the good then.

Circumstances for the two sides have changed considerably since then, though, and Manuel Pellegrini's men, who've been firing in the goals recently, are overwhelming favourites, at 1/3 for the win in the latest match odds.

Arsenal vs Tottenham Betting Tips and FA Cup Predictions by that's a goal

Arsenal vs Tottenham betting tips for the FA Cup Third Round match on Saturday 4th January with a match preview and predictions for the North London derby.

The tie of the FA Cup Third Round sees Arsenal host their neighbours and rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the evening kick-off and we have got the best football betting tips for the tie.

Arsenal have won their last three matches in the Premier League while Tottenham are now four unbeaten following a fantastic 2-1 win at Old Trafford on New Year’s Day. Tim Sherwood has turned the fortunes of Spurs around and he will look to continue that against Arsenal on Saturday.

Emmanuel Adebayor has been in sensational form since he returned to the side under Sherwood and we are betting on him to score in the match at odds of 3/1.

Tottenham have won their last five matches at home and although Arsenal have a fine home record of five wins and two draws in their last seven, conceding just once, Spurs will fancy their chances of getting at least a draw here.

The last time these two sides met in the FA Cup Arsenal won 2-1 back in 2001 and there is every chance that scoreline could occur again here at odds of 9/1, Arsenal have won the last three home meetings with Spurs.

Goals Galore Betting Tip for the FA Cup Third Round By Andre Clark

Saturday’s Goals Galore betting tip comes from the FA Cup as we take four matches from the 3pm kick-offs in the hope both teams will score in each.

Saturday Both Teams to Score Tip:

Rochdale vs Leeds

Rochdale sit 5th in League Two and have scored five in their last two at home, they have only failed to score once in their last 19 home matches in all competitions. Both teams scored in their 2nd round match when they were away from home. Leeds have netted in six of their last seven away matches including four at Charlton and three at Doncaster and their Championship quality should see them at least score.

Stoke City vs Leicester City

Stoke were held 1-1 by Everton on New Year’s Day and have now conceded in their last four home matches. In the FA Cup they have only kept one clean sheet in their last eight home ties, but have also scored in seven of those eight. Leicester are flying and free scoring in the Championship, scoring in 14 of their last 15 matches while both teams have scored in four of their last five away from home.

Macclesfield Town vs Sheffield Wednesday

Macclesfield are brilliant at home and always score goals, they put four past Swindon in Round One and smashed seven in the final qualifying round. They have scored against the likes of Cardiff and Bolton at home in the past two seasons and have scored three goals in three of their last four home league games. Sheffield Wednesday have now scored in two of their last three away and their Championship quality should see them at least score here.

Bristol City vs Watford

Bristol City have now won their last two home matches in League Two, winning 4-1 last time out and both teams have scored in their last five home matches. They have only failed to score once in their last 21 home games. Watford have a new manager and smashed four past Millwall recently. Away from home both teams have scored in five of their last six and the same can happen again with the lesser opposition on home soil.

Football Treble Betting Tip for Saturday By Andrew Clark

The FA Cup third round takes center stage on Saturday and we have picked two teams from that competition and a League Two side to make up our Saturday treble tip.

Our tip for Saturday takes a Premier League side to bounce back from defeat last time out and a rejuvenated Championship side at home against lower league opposition as well as a clash from League Two where the form side in the table are expected to beat the bottom club.


Saturday’s Football Treble Tip:

Wigan to beat MK Dons

Since their new manager came in Wigan have vastly improved and that was illustrated with a fantastic win at Derby County on New Year’s Day. It’s now five unbeaten for Wigan and they can see off League One MK Dons here. The Dons were soundly beaten by Brentford last time out and have lost seven of their last nine away matches against League One opposition.

Newcastle to beat Cardiff

Newcastle’s great run has been halted of late with two straight defeats but they will fancy their chances of going far in this competition. Before the 1-0 home defeat to Arsenal they had won four and drawn one in the previous five. Cardiff will be concentrating more on the relegation fight and despite having a new manager should see be beaten here. They have lost four and drew two of their last six away, scoring just one goal in that time.

Newport County to beat Northampton

Newport sit top of the League Two form table and have won their last five home matches in the league, scoring two goals or more on all five occasions. Northampton are bottom of the table and struggle to score goals away from home. They have netted just once in their last six away and given Newport’s strong goalscoring record at home this should be a winning conclusion to Saturday’s betting tip.

Accumulator Betting Tip for Saturday's Football By Alex Peace

Accumulator Betting Tip

Aston Villa to beat Sheffield United 4/9

11th in the Premier League take on 18th in League One in a clash between two teams with big history. The Premier League side picked up their first win in six at the weekend and they take on a team with just one win on the road in the league this season. Villa’s Premier League class should show here against a team notoriously poor on the road.

Bournemouth to beat Burton 1/2:

Things haven’t gone too badly for Bournemouth so far in the Championship and they are in 16th, looking reasonably safe. They are unbeaten in their last four and have lost just one of their last six. They take on a Burton side going great guns at the top end of League 2. However, teams from the Championship have always posed an issue for Burton and their best performance in this competition is the Fourth round in 2011 when Burnley knocked them out. The two division gulf should show here and Bournemouth should pick up a win.

Doncaster to beat Stevenage 10/11:

Staying with Championship new boys we have Doncaster. Doncaster are currently 23rd in the Championship and struggling but take on a side from the league below who sit bottom. Rovers best form has come at home and they have won two of their last five there. Stevenage are without a win in six and once again the league gap should make a difference.

Ipswich to beat Prestion 17/20:

Championship v League One again for this one. Its two of the teams near the top of their divisions again though. Ipswich sit sixth in the Championship while Preston are 4th in League One. Ipswich are unbeaten in eight matches, drawing four and winning four. The last two seasons in the FA Cup have seen them go out at this stage to Championship sides and the Tractor Boys should have just too much for them this time around.

Wigan to beat MK Dons 4/5:

Finally to Wigan who are having a bit of a revolution under new manager Uwe Rosler. They are unbeaten since he took charge winning three and drawing two matches. Last time out they beat high-flying Derby and they are looking really good of late. Dons have been going well themselves of late but have won just two of their last eight on the road and against a side from a higher division should lose here.

Both Teams to Score and Match Result Betting Tip for Saturday By Alex Peace

"The FA Cup due to the mismatches of teams usually has a lot of goals. We are hoping to take advantage of that with the Both Teams to Score and Match Result market."

Both Teams to Score and Match Result Treble

Bolton to beat Blackpool and Both Teams to Score 17/5:

The Third Round has thrown up an all Championship Lancashire Derby as Bolton host Blackpool. Bolton’s form has been mixed of late with two wins, two draws and two defeats in their last six. However they have lost just one of their last nine at the Reebok but with far too many draws in that time. Blackpool are in free fall, without a win in seven and losing six in that time. However, Bolton struggle for clean sheets, keeping just one in their last five and Blackpool have scored in four of their last six away from home. Bolton should put home advantage to good use but a leaky defence means Blackpool will cause them trouble.

Huddersfield to beat Grimsby and Both Teams to Score 11/4:

Championship take on Conference in this game and Huddersfield will be hoping their pedigree sees them through to Round 4. They haven’t been on the best run in the Championship with two defeats, two draws and a solitary win in their last five. Grimsby are going great guns in the Conference but with Huddersfield several divisions above I do expect them to get the win. Huddersfield aren’t the best at the back with just one clean sheet in six though and both teams scoring in their last three. They take on a Grimsby side who have scored in their last nine league matches so this should be interesting, but I do expect Huddersfield to win.

Peterborough to beat Kidderminster and Both Teams to Score 12/5:

After a great start to the season Peterborough have  tailed off of late but the FA Cup may give them a chance to go out and get a win. Two divisions above Kidderminster, both teams have scored in Peterborough’s last five matches now. Both teams have scored in Kidderminster’s last five at home so goals should fly but I expect Peterborough to progress.

World Cup Betting Tips, Argentina Preview

"Argentina haven’t won a World Cup in 20 years and manager Alejandro Sabella will be looking to piece together and utilise all the talent from the nation to do just that and win World Cup 2014."

Lionel Messi of Barcelona will be a key figure in what is a talented squad including Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero and Real Madrid’s Angel Di Maria.

Gonzalo Higuain’s summer move from the Madrid giants to Napoli is looking like a move that will likely secure a place in Argentina’s 23-man squad for the World Cup as he has averaged 1 goal in every 2 games for the Italian outfit.

Defensively they have Javier Mascherano and as Liverpool fans will remember he is a defensive rock in addition to Manchester City’s right back Pablo Zabaleta.

Currently in the Spurs’ squad, Erik Lamela hasn’t impressed since his estimated £30million move from Roma in the summer so may be subsequently dropped from Sabella’s national squad.

The South American nation only have two recognised strikers so recently called up Mauricio Icardi will be looking to put his name in the striking department alongside Aguero and Higuain.

Argentina don’t have a well-known goalkeeper but Sergio Romero of Monaco is the current number 1.

Lionel Messi will firstly be looking to get himself fully rehabilitated for Barcelona in the short term but also for Argentina next summer in the long term. Secondly he will be looking to make more of an impact for Argentina than he has in recent times.

Argentine players that will be fighting for a place in the squad are among the likes of Fabricio Coloccini for Newcastle United and Oscar Ustari for Almeria.

The two times Argentina have won the World Cup has been when it’s close to home for example the first World Cup they won was when they hosted the World Cup 35 years ago in 1978 and eight years later in 1986 in Mexico albeit with Diego Maradona’s help.

Since 1994 World Cup in America, Argentina haven’t made it past the quarter finals in this competition and given the World Cup is being hosted by one of their neighbours in Brazil they may feel they have a better chance than ever to improve or even win the competition.

I feel Argentina won’t do as well as they may hope due to the quality coming into the competition for example Germany, Spain, Belgium, Portugal, France, England and Uruguay all teams that play better under pressure in my opinion which is probably why they haven’t done so well in recent World Cups but excelled in the South American Cup.
