Everyone loves International weekend right?. Right? No?! Whaddya mean no? Who isn't excited about San Marino taking on the Three Lions this weekend? Or Luxembourg taking on Azerbaijan?
Yeah they can be bobbins but one match that jumps out of the page and kicks you square in the nuts is Croatia versus Serbia. That game will be tastier than a KFC Chicken drumstick protruding out of Kate Upton's clunge. If you can find a feed, watch it.
This week we have 3 bets. A straight acca, a goals galore 4 fold and a correct score perm bet.
[u]Acca[/u]
[i]
22/03/2013 - 6pm Norway
22/03/2013 - 7.10pm Slovakia
22/03/2013 - 7.45pm Russia
22/03/2013 - 7.45pm Sweden[/i]
The four fold pays just over 4/1 with bet365
[u]Goals Galore[/u]
The good thing about International weekend is that...
[i]Vvv Venlo v Heracles Both Teams To Score, Yes, 0-2
Ado Den Haag v Vitesse Arnheim Both Teams To Score, Yes, 0-4
[/i]
[b]Besiktas v Kasimpasa Both Teams To Score, Yes 1-3[/b]
3/1 with StanJames
Three bets this weekend, a Goals Galore acca, +1.5 Goals at Half Time Treble and 13 fold +1.5 Goals. The +1.5 Goals at Half Time Treble has come close to winning in the last two weeks but both have been sunk in the last game, in the most likely match, by the score line of 0-1. TotesFrustraingBallz.
Anyway this week we have…
[u][b]Goals Galore:[/b][/u]
[i]10/13 -10/13 02/03/2013 - 3pm Swansea City vs Newcastle Utd +7[/i]
[i]9/13 - 8/13 03/03/2013 - 2pm Bologna vs Cagliari +6[/i]

9/12 - 7/11 03/03/2013 - 5pm Besiktas vs Fenerbahce +6[/b]
This little quartet pays a smidge under 13/2 with StanJames
[u][b]
+1.5 Goals at Half Time[/b][/u]
[b]02/03/2013 - 3pm Elgin v Stirling Albion (90.91% - 54.55%)[/b]
[i]02/03/2013...
A brief look back on last week, Norwich, despite being 83 places above Luton, couldn’t manage to bag two goals against such lowly opposition. In fact they couldn’t bag one, the useless gets and thus sunk the ‘to score 2+’ bet. League 1 form team Walsall came unstuck against a Colchester team that had lost its last 9 matches and the 2.5 bet went tits up. The BTTS acca did come however.
Moving onto this week and we have a trio of bets. First up is the [b]+2.5 acca[/b].
[b]01/02/2013 - 6pm Besiktas vs Karabukspor +7.5 2-2.[/b]
[i]01/02/2013 - 7pm FC Eindhoven vs Excelsior +9.25 1-1.
02/02/2013 - 7.45pm Napoli vs Catania +7.5 2-0.
03/02/2013 - 1.30pm Sparta vs Cambuur +5 1-0.[/i]
The quartet pays 5/1+ with Bet365
Next up: [b]Both Teams to Score[/b].
[b]7/10 - 8/10 01/02/2013...
Three bets for us this weekend, so let’s get cracking.
First up we have the [b]+2.5 bet[/b]:
[b]19/01/2013 - 5pm Real Sociedad vs FC Barcelona +4 3-2
[/b][b]19/01/2013 - 5pm Besiktas v Istanbul +7.5 2-2[/b]
[i]20/01/2013 - 1pm Bastia v Rennes +7.5 0-2 (B'stard bastia missed a pen with 5 to go, Rennes had one cleared off the line with 2 to go)
[/i]
The Sociedad and Barcelona match doesn’t really fit into the criteria for an over 2.5 bet with a +4 rating. However, I’m letting that slide seeing as every Barcelona away game this season has seen over 2.5 goals. Add that to the fact that Barça have only kept two clean sheets in 10 away matches and the +2.5 looks a solid.
Besiktas host Istanbul on Saturday evening with goals expected at the İnönü Stadium. Of the nine...
A few bets this weekend to get our teeth stuck into so let’s start with the +/- 2.5 Goals acca. The double last week came in with little fuss and hopefully we can have the same result this week.
[i]11/01/2013 - 6pm Saint-Etienne vs Toulouse -10 2-2[/i]
[b]13/01/2013 - 8pm Malaga vs Barcelona +7 1-3
14/01/2013 - 5.30pm Kerkyra vs Asteras -7.5 0-1[/b]
[i]14/01/2013 - 8pm QPR vs Tottenham +6 * 0-0[/i]
[b]*Hit and miss with the over/unders this weekend. Cant believe four goals were scored in France*[/b]
Friday night see’s Saint-Etienne take on Toulouse under the floodlights at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard and under 2.5 goals is the call for this match. So far this season this has happened in seven of the 10 Les Verts home matches and in eight out of nine Toulouse away matches. ...
[b]Score Some Goals with Your Boots[/b]
Two out of four bets landed last week, which is nice.
This weekend we have a straight acca and a BTTS bet.
We’ll start with the latter....
Dartford 8/12 v Cambridge 10/12 +6
St Johnstone – 7/9 v Inverness -8/9 - +6
QP Rangers – 7/9 v Liverpool 7/9 +7
Everton – 8/9 v Chelsea 6/9 - +7
First up, Dartford v Cambridge. I’ll level with you; I know bog all about these teams and am working on stats alone. Dartford has seen eight out of their 12 home matches finish with both teams bagging. Cambridge has a great record of 10 in 12.
The Saints are seven from nine at home whilst Inverness has an even better record of eight in nine. Add that to the fact that they are the SPL’s leading onion baggers and one would expect...
[b]Score Some Goals with Your Boots[/b]
Another weekend of frustration, a-bloody-gain. Despite 16 goals finding their way into various onion bags, Mallorca’s inability to bag one sunk the acca. That’s four times this season where we’ve been one goal away from collecting. *sad face*
Anyhow…this week we have:
[b]6/8 - 8/8 22/12/12 - 2pm AS Roma vs AC Milan +7 4-2
8/11 - 10/11 22/12/12 - 3pm Peterborough vs Bolton +8 5-4
8/11 - 9/11 22/12/12 - 3pm Scunthorpe vs Carlisle Utd +7 pp
6/8 - 5/8 22/12/12 - 7pm Bastia vs Nancy +8 4-2
With scunthorpe being PP, it took the bet down to a treble which duly obliged. Which is nice[/b]
Milan have cropped up in this blog before when they took on Napoli, that game finishing 2-2. As we can see, goals have been scored and conceded ...
Frustration last week, notably with the European acca in which, despite there being six goals in the match, was let down by not so Super Depor’s inability to bag a goal. *shakes fist*
This week we have one four fold to entertain us this weekend
[b]5/7 - 5/8 15/12/12 - 3pm QPR vs Fulham +6 - 2-1[/b]
[i]4/7 - 5/7 15/12/12 - 5pm Mallorca vs Athletic Bilbao +7 0-1[/i]
[b]4/8 - 7/8 15/12/12 - 3pm Dundee Utd vs Inverness +7 4-4
6/8 - 7/8 16/12/12 - 2.30pm Hoffenheim vs Dortmund +7 1-3[/b]
As we can see, QPR & Fulham matches have a tendency to see both teams scoring and that’s set to continue this weekend.
In Spain Mallorca have only seen four out of seven home matches end up with both teams finding the net. However, three out of the last four have seen this result come...
One wolves goal away from a nice midweek BTTS acca, the ****. Anyhow moving on….
Only the two selections for both +2.5 and BTTS, so im marrying them up in one single acca
[i]01/12/2012 - 3pm - Fulham v Spurs +7 BTTS[/i]
[b]01/12/2012 - 3pm - Torquay Utd vs Dagenham & R +7 BTTS[/b]
[i]02/12/12 - 1.30pm - FC Groningen vs Heracles Almelo +6.75 +2.5
02/12/12 - 2pm - Antalyaspor vs Mersin +6 +2.5
[/i]
*[b]Mmmm, 1 from 4 - must do better[/b]
Fulham, whilst only having 50% of their home matches end with BTS, have been scoring and shipping goals for fun. Factor in the fact that Spurs have a 100% record and it looks a solid pick.
Torquay have seen seven of their nine home matches end up with BTS and Dagenham go one better with eight from nine away matches.
Both Dutch teams...
