Premiership Football Betting tips and FREE betting offers

Chelsea v Arsenal

This is the 143rd London derby between the teams, Chelsea haven’t lost in 5 games, whereas Arsenal have lost 4 out of the last 5 games.  Last year this fixture saw Chelsea win 2-1, with a double from Drogba.  Football fans who like to see goals will be relieved to know that in 29 games there’s only been one goalless game.

Premiership betting tip: The odds (1.88) show that Chelsea are the favourites to take the points in this match.  I’m tempted to go for a draw in this London derby,  but I’m also swayed into believing that history may repeat itself and we may see Arsenal topple Chelsea at Stamford Bridge like they did in the season where Liverpool also beat Chelsea.  Let’s go for the bet of laying Chelsea at odds of around 1.88, Arsenal will take confidence from their midweek win and thy will also be welcoming back some key players like striker Adebayor.

It might also be interesting to look at backing for fun former players of both sides, Anelka and Gallas to score at anytime.

UPDATE- Chelsea 1-2 Arsenal. It was a disappointing Sunday afternoon if you are a Blue fan (no not the boy band), Chelsea only had one shot on goal throughout the whole 90 minutes, taking that into account, Arsenal deserved to win this match.  The Gunner’s first goal looked to be slightly offside and we got confirmation that it probably was when Wenger told Sky: ‘I didn’t see it’.  Laying Chelsea to win this match at about 1.88 on Betfair instead of backing the draw was a good decision in the end, bringing us a winning Premiership bet for the last day of November!

Tuesday and Wednesday bring a full list of Premiership mid week fixtures, which of course means more matches to choose to bet on!!

Aston Villa v Blackburn- Villa are unbeaten at home so far this season and Blackburn have drawn their last two Premiership games.  Blackburn last won at Villa Park in 2004, this is their only win in 7 games away to Villa. 

Betting tip (Winner)- It’s tempting to go for the draw here just like last year, but I do believe that Aston Villa can take all three points, they are priced at 1.69 currently on Betfair.  I’m tipping ’Over 2.5 goals’ in this match, you can currently get a price of 1.97 on Betfair.

UPDATE- Well we’ll start with the amazing match at the Emirates stadium, it’s fair to say that this match had 4-4 written all over it….even after 65 minutes!!!  On to the betting tip, the Villa v Blackburn produced 5 goals, which meant the over 2.5 goals tip was a winner, a great way to just abut double your money midweek!!

Newcastle 2-1 West Brom
Arsenal 4-4 Tottenham
Aston Villa 3-2 Blackburn
Bolton 0-1Everton
Fulham 2-0 Wigan
Hull 0-3 Chelsea
Liverpool 1-0 Portsmouth
Man Utd 2-0 West Ham

Stoke 1-0 Sunderland

Pound coins were in the news this week, with an estimated £30 million fake £1 coins in circulation in the UK.  A word of advice to Tottehnam, if Manchester United just so happened to have paid Berbatov’s thirty million pounds transfer fee in pound coins then they may want to start double checking!!

Everton v Liverpool

The big game this week has to the be the 179th Merseyside derby.  If you are fan of backing red cards and yellow cards then this is the game for you,  16 out of the 32 meetings have resulted in red cards.  I can always guarantee Phil Neville will find himself in the book for a hasty challenge (1.9 odds on Betfair) and an own goal may just occur once again in this fixture!!!

Betting tips:  Who will win this derby?…Who knows?  It’s hard to predict these derby games, but judging on form Liverpool look to be likely winners, especially with Everton only picking up points away from home this season.  But the main bet I’ll be backing is Stephen Gerrard to score.  Needing one more to make 100 goals, what better team his 100th against? Back him to score at anytime at odds of 3.75 on PaddyPower.  Also back Robbie Keane to score at odds of 3.25.

Wigan v Man City

The last time City played Wigan away from home the scoreline was 1-1.  From a quick glance this game may look like a Man City win, but City have failed to beat Wigan in the Premiership.  Wigan have been in good form lately, with the 5-0 win over Hull being their biggest result this season.

Betting tip: City are the favourites to win this game at odds of 2.46 (Betfair) with the home team priced at odds of around 3.25.  Let go for the value bet here and back Wigan, they’ve been in good form and Man City may be a little weary after having to play extra time mid-week.  This looks like it could be cracking game, I would like to think there will be goals galore!!!

UPDATE- The Merseyside Derby produced alot of whistle blowing moments by the referee, meaning that there was no flow to the game.  Liverpool deserved the victory (as predicted), but Everton can count themselves unlucky to have Cahill sent off.  There was no luck in picking Gerrard and Keane to score, but I had to back Neville to get a yellow card when I saw the odds for a yellow jump up to around 2.3 on Betfair, so when he made that crashing challenge I celebrated like it was a goal!!

The Wigan game brought us the biggest betting winner of the season, courtesy of a Zaki penalty.  Hopefully this will be the turning point and we can get a good run of winning bets now.  Goals were predicted in this game, if only I had backed over 2.5 goals as well!!

Arsenal 1-2 Hull
Aston Villa 2-1 Sunderland
Everton 0-2 Liverpool
Fulham 1-2 West Ham
Man Utd 2-0 Bolton
Middlesbrough 0-1 West Brom
Newcastle 1-2 Blackburn
Stoke 0-2 Chelsea
Portsmouth 2-0 Tottenham
Wigan 2-1 Man City

You heard it here first from premiershipbettingbanter.com, Wednesday is the end of the world.  Has it got something to do with the physicists at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research who are going to fire subatomic particles into a 27-km loop, making them travel the bend 11,245 times a second, and then smash head on?  No forget about that, this is much more serious!! England come up against Croatia and if they lose then it will almost feel like the end of the world for England fans once again.  Croatia are priced as favorites to win this World Cup qualifier, which seems pretty fair as they were the ones who beat them twice in Euro qualifying and they are playing at home.  On Betfair you can back Croatia to win at odds of 2.52, with England at odds of 3.35 to win.

Betting tip-  I will be tipping a double for these second round of World Cup qualifying matches.   Lets go for a Russia and Germany double.  Russia are always going to be test at home and with the players like midfielder Arshavin, they will this cause this young Welsh team alot of problems. Wales’ problem on Saturday looked  like they couldn’t take their chances, so one goal could be all that they can manage for this game.  Germany always seem to do enough to get the result they need and I can see them getting three points even with midfielder Ballack missing tonight.  With Germany already coming out as 6-0 winners in their first qualifying game, you can see why they are favourites away from home to win this game at odds of 1.63 on Betfair (backed as a single). 

So back Russia and Germany to win (lay Finland if you are worried about the past draws between the two teams)in a double and singles on Betfair, you can get odds of around 1.91 to just about double you money. 

For any England fans out there, if you are looking to back something in the Croatia match, then I think this match could go to a draw, Croatia are unbeaten in 32 competitive matches at home so 1 point could be the best Capello and his team can get.

UPDATE: In the end it was a case of the reliable Germans letting us down, hopefully you backed a Russia win and layed Finland, but if you are like me and backed the Germans to win, then you will be disappointed that the double didn’t some off.  At least we got one winning bet by backing Russia to win, this should go some way to covering out losses.  I had a feeling Rooney would score against Croatia, but with my past losing ‘to score’ bets, I was put off!!
