Premiership Football Betting tips and FREE betting offers

So after all the excitement the Premiership has begun last weekend and I’m sure we were all glued to the live football scores, but did the weekend really live up the high expectations(probably not if your Sports Betting Tips all went wrong!!) Okay we saw some flashes of brilliance last night from Aguero (who looks to be worth every penny of his transfer fee) and it was a fantastic goal for Larsson against Liverpool, but apart from that the weekend seemed quite ordinary.

With Fabregas leaving Arsenal following Ronaldo to Spain, what players can we count on to provide that bit of magic and excitement? Gone are the players of the past such as Ginola, Kinkladze, Zola and Le Tissier. Those were the players who would get the crowd on their feet and the kids trying to copy their tricks in the playground on a Monday morning.

Has the Premiership become more mundane with managers not allowing their players to express themselves? Have all the ‘world class’ players left to play abroad? Has the Premiership become less interesting?……only time will tell, but one thing fo sure to keep us interested is a football bet!!

Last Weekend betting tips

Manchester City 4 – 3 Wolverhampton Wanderers

I did say it was probably too much to ask from Wolves and it was “just.” Coming back from 4-1 down showed a lot guts and determination. I would go as far to say that Wolves deserved the points, but Lady Luck was not playing the game. Mick McCarthy’s team don’t deserve to be sitting in the relegation zone. Whatever you are doing Mick should be working. The question, of course, is why is it not?

Wolves (12/5) meet Liverpool (7/5) on their home turf on Saturday. This should be a difficult one to call given the poor form by Liverpool recently. The odds on the draw are 12/5 so very iffy.

Tottenham 0 – 0 Manchester United

What is it that Manchester United have got that is eluding Wolves and perhaps at least half of the rest of the teams in the Premier League? Their unbeaten reign continues and Harry Rednapp has said that this is not a great United team. Well they have played 21 games in the Premier League this season without defeat. Is it simply that they have an unshakeable belief in themselves? United were severely tested in this match and you might say that Tottenham should have taken the points. However it seems that United are not prepared to take a back seat to anyone.

United (2/1) meet Birmingham City (17/1) at home on Saturday. The draw at 6/1 is worth a punt.

Birmingham City 1 – 1 Aston Villa

Birmingham continued to slide downwards and Aston Villa continue to hover just above the relegation zone with this one all draw. Alex McLeish pointed out the obvious when he said we don’t score enough goals. There is no doubt that the lack of an effective striker is a major drawback and Birmingham will rue the day if this causes them to fall out of the Premier League.

This week-end betting tips

Everton v West Ham

Everton meet West Ham on Saturday with the odds clearly favouring Everton at 8/15 and West Ham at 7/1 and the draw at 100/30. West Ham need to get their skates on if they are to crawl out of the relegation zone. There is still time to do this, but don’t wait too long. The draw is worth a bet. 

Arsenal v Wigan

Arsenal are clear favourites at 2/9 for this tie with Wigan who badly need the points coming in at 16/1. However Wigan are a team who can get the odd result and at 6/1 for the draw this could be worth a look

Pick of Last Weekend’s Fixtures

LIVERPOOL 2 – 0 CHELSEA

A crowd of 44,238 fans watched Liverpool give the Premiership League leaders a 2-0 sting from goals by Fernando Torres in the 11th and 44th minutes. At 3/1 on the betting this was a nice one to get although no one really thought that Liverpool was ready at this stage.

Perhaps the point was made on Wednesday when Liverpool visited Wigan where they were held to a 1-1 draw. However we mustn’t cry over spilt milk. Liverpool are now in 9th position in the league. They should be in more positive frame of mind individually and as a team. It’s nice to see them getting back to where they should be.

FULHAM 1 – 1 ASTON VILLA

This proved to be a tough encounter as expected with Fulham just managing to snatch a share of the points in the 95th minute. The very late equaliser knocked the stuffing out of the Aston Villa players who thought the game was as good as done.

Coming up This Weekend

Aston Villa v Manchester United

Manchester United are the bookies favourites for this match with betting at 4/1 for an Aston Villa win, 4/5 for Manchester United and 11/4 for the draw. However the results of the most recent meetings, below don’t suggest that Man U should be the clear favourites. However the league positions at 2nd for Man U on 24 points and 10th for Aston Villa with 16 points is a more convincing argument.

Most recent meetings

28/02/2010 Aston Villa 1-2 Man Utd
10/02/2010 Aston Villa 1-1 Man Utd
12/12/2009 Man Utd 0-1 Aston Villa

Everton  v Arsenal

Everton are sitting 12th in the league with 15 points and Arsenal are 3rd with 23 points.

We did see a blip in Everton’s performance when Arsenal trounced them 1 – 6 at home for Everton. Arsenal are given the edge by the bookies at 5/4 with Everton sitting at 12/5 and 5/2 for the draw.

Most recent meetings

09/01/2010 Arsenal 2-2 Everton
15/08/2009 Everton 1-6 Arsenal
28/01/2009 Everton 1-1 Arsenal

As usual I like to keep you up to date with the leading goal scorers.

Have a nice week end.

Will Chelsea turn out the light again for Arsenal on Sunday? Will Arsenal stay in the light with this 1-3 satisfying away result to Partizan Belgrade on Tuesday Night?

However Chelsea playing against Marseilles on the same night played good game and almost bad game to over-come the French champions 2 goals to nil.

Chelsea meet Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on Sunday 3 October at 4pm. The match is screened live on Sky Sports 2 and the early betting suggests that Chelsea are the on-form team. On-form may not be
a totally accurate description at the moment.

However there is not a lot separating the two teams in the Premiership. Chelsea are top on 15 points with Arsenal 3rd on 11 points after playing their first 6 games of the season.

This will be the fixture of the weekend and is certainly worth a flutter at your local bookie.

Chelsea have been the victors in the last three meetings between the two teams and the odds seem to be in their favour.

The odds are in favour of Chelsea at 4/5 and Arsenal at 4/1 to win and 3/1 for a draw. However this is not a forgone conclusion by any means. A bet on a draw is very tantalising and probably realistic.
Arsenal on their game could upset the applecart.

However if you are not persuaded by this, there are many other ways that you can lay a bet on the game.

Who do you fancy to score the first goal? Will it be Walcott, Nasri or Arshavin for Arsenal? Will it be Malouda, Drogba or Kalou for Chelsea?

When all is said and done Abramovich has told his team he expects them to win every competition they play in this year. Indeed the betting is again in favour of them taking the 2010/11 title.
