Premiership Football Betting tips and FREE betting offers

Man Utd v Man City- This will be the 152nd Machesert Derby on Sunday, out of the 151 games United have the upper hand of winning 61 games compared to City’s 41.  Out of the 12 trips City have taken to Old Trafford in the Premiership they have only won one, which doesn’t make pleasant reading if you are a City fan!!

Premiership Betting tip- In derby games you are never sure what’s going to happen as form goes out the window, although saying that both team’s form has been pretty good (United 1 defeat,City undefeated in the Premiership).  One thing that we can almost guarantee is that there will be passion and passion usually means fouls and yellow cards! Lets look at players who are likely to play and pick up yellows, Scholes is suspended for this game so lets back Fletcher & Evra for United and Nigel de Jong for City, back them all on Betfair (prices no available at present).  Lets all hope for some tasty challenges!

Arsenal v Man Utd- This game has to be the one that most Premiership football fans will be watching this weekend, Arsenal entertain rivals United at the Emirates.  The Gunners go into this game in the midst of their ‘mini crisis’ (losing one game) whereas United have an unbeaten run of 12 games in all competitions.  It would be wrong to rule out Arsenal due to their patched up team(due to suspensions and injuries), they have in the past managed to win when the odds were against them.  After completing this game United would have played all their title rivals away from home, at the moment they only have 1 point to show from these games.  United will be a threat with players like Berbatov, Rooney and Ronaldo, they certainly are a joy to watch when they all click.

Surely this game we will show us how the Arsenal players react when the pressure is on them, will they prosper or will they wilt?

Betting tips- United away from home are favourite to win this match at odds of 2.34 on Betfair.  But Manchester United haven’t won at the Emirates yet and have only have 1 win in 8 games away to Arsenal.  So the best bet would be to back the draw at odds of 3.3 currently on Betfair.  Also go for a small bet on Berbatov to score at anytime at odds of 3.35.

UPDATE- What a great match to watch, chances at both ends and some great football played by both of these title challengers.  I’m sure that if United had scored then they wouldn’t have ended up on the losing team.  The bet to go for the draw wasn’t successful this time, looking back at it, no matter how bad the Gunners’ last results have been, it was a little crazy for them not to be favourites when playing at home.

There were some great Champions League games last night, including the Liverpool match, Marseilles could of nearly of got a winner at the end, but Gerrard’s goal was a deserved winner. 

Betting tips

We’ll try and ease ourselves in the Champions League betting this season, so bet on over 1.5 goals in the Juventus v Zenit St Petersburg match at odds of 1.34, hopefully it will be an open match like I’ve seen in the past Zenit games. 

Fun bet-  With all the England players Cole, Lampard and Gerrard scoring yesterday, lets got for a small fun, bet on Wayne Rooney to score at anytime against Villarreal at odds of 2.8.  Let’s pray Rooney follows the good example set by his England teammates!!

UPDATE- In the end it was a tight match and the two teams could only muster one goal between them and there wasn’t quite the amount of goals as I expected.  A better value would of been to lay Lyon at odds of 1.75 against Fiorentina, that’s the benefit of hindsight!!!

The most surprising result of the week must of been Britney Spears picking up three MTV awards, whatever next?  Theo Walcott scoring a hat-trick?  Surely not.  Well we thought it would be the end of the world on Wednesday, but Capello and his men put in an impressive performance against the Croatians.  If only these bunch of part time footballers could play like that more often, then they may have a chance of qualifying for major tournament.  Continue reading »
