Premiership Football Betting tips and FREE betting offers

With the fantastic Beijing Olympics coming to a close last Sunday, there’s one question every England fan is asking themselves, no not the question…. ‘Why are can’t these overpaid England players reach the same height of success as the Team GB?’   But….. ‘How many minutes would Sami Hypia finish behind world record holder Usain Bolt in a 100 metre race? ‘ This would surely be an event to every sport fan would enjoy seeing!!

Betting tips- I still haven’t learnt my lesson with backing players in the ‘To Score’ market, so I will go for another, back Adebayor in the Arsenal v Newcastle match to score at anytime.  He seems to love scoring against Newcastle, having scored in three games against the Geordies last season.  Hopefully Wenger will play him and hopefully this bet will come off!!  Paddy Power has him down as 11/10 (2.10) to score at anytime, click here to go to anytime scorer market.

Sunderland play Man City in a match which pits the two ex-United players Keane and Hughes against each other.  City done the double over Sunderland last season winning both home and away matches.  I think that the City players could be a little weary after Thursday’s extra time and with them having lost their last three away games, i will be backing Sunderland to win at odds of 2.3 on Betfair, or check the Paddy Power banner on the right for the latest match odds.

Some fun bets to have this weekend are for Kevin Davies who’s just penned a new contract with Bolton this week to score at anytime (Betfair quote him at 3.5).  Also back the man at the centre of the this summer’s tapping up affair Gareth Barry to score against Liverpool, Betfair give pretty good odds of 6.2.

UPDATE: I’m feeling as sick as an England player who hasn’t eaten anything for 8 hours whilst having to do intensive training exercises.  Once again a weekend of failed bets, I thought the fun bet backing Kevin Davies to score at anytime would be winner, only for the linesman to rule offside…twice.  Wigan were one of the teams I was looking to bet on, unfortunately I didn’t act on my instinct.

After the international friendlies mid-week it’s back to the Premiership. Portsmouth vs. Man Utd looks to be an interesting match, United are under strength in their second game so another draw may be on the cards. Arsenal take on Fulham, surely another 3 points for the Gunners and another step closer for us to winning our ‘Top at the end of month- August’ bet?  If only betting was  that easy!!

Betting tip-  Liverpool v Middlesbrough, Torres has picked up where left off last season and has already opened his goal scoring account.  Back him to score at anytime (odds of 2.04 on Betfair) and to be first goal scorer (odds of 4.6).  Hopefully Benitez won’t be in his rotating moods and he’ll let the Spanish hitman start the game.

Tottenham v Sunderland- It’s always interesting to see an ex player come up against his old club,  Steed Malbranque was one of the better Tottenham players last year, and he’ll line up against them for Sunderland.  As a fun bet, back him to score at anytime tomorrow, odds of 6.50 on William Hill. Chimbonda will be another player to look out for.

UPDATE:  Not a very good start the season at all for us on the betting front, I’m feeling a bit like Paul Jewell’s Derby who haven’t won in the league since September 2007, hopefully we won’t need to wait that long for a winner!!  Malbranque nearly scored against his old club and the fun bet nearly came off, only the cross bar got in the way.  Torres couldn’t win our main bet of the day either, making it a miserable a weekend of betting. 

Blackburn 1-1 Hull
Fulham 1-0 Arsenal
Liverpool 2-1 Middlesbrough
Newcastle 1-0 Bolton
Stoke 3-2 Aston Villa
Tottenham 1-2 Sunderland
West Brom 1-2 Everton

It’s been a long long summer,the night where Spain won their first piece of silverware for over 40 years feels like months ago(are you sure it really happened?). With the talk of the credit crunch looming, it’s great to see footballers are leading by example and taking pay cuts, Arsenal’s Adebayour will have to survive on only £4 million a year and Robbie Keane will only make the paltry sum of £20 million over the next 4 years.  How will they survive?

With the Premiership starting, all talk will be on who will lift the title at the end of the season and what team will be dropping down in to the Championship.
