Question of the Week

Is football a business or a sport?




Few in action this week
Few in action this week

Beat the Bookies: Week 28

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 16/02/2012

MOST of last weeks tips were postponed again! The two matches that did survive the weather both ended up with the wrong result however. So time to focus on another weekend when at least there's going to be some good action as it's the FA Cup!

Home > 2011-2012 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 28

Championship Tip

Southampton v Derby - away win (draw no bet) (5.8, Marathon). Southampton are definitely wobbling a bit at the top and Derby are capable of springing a surprise. Marathon generously have a draw no bet away win almost as good as most bookies' straight aways!

League One Tip Sheffield Utd v Preston - away win (draw no bet) (5.5, Bet365). Most people will have this as a home win on their coupons. We'd have to agree but 5.5 is a very generous price to go against the flow as Preston are no mugs themselves.

Blue Square Premier Tip

York v Stockport - away win (draw no bet) (5.5, Marathon). York haven't played for ages then suddenly have two games in a week. Well maybe? Anyway our generous Japanese friends at Marathon have come up with another DNB offering you can't turn down.

FA Cup tips

This week we're backing a lot of the upsets, placing half our normal stakes. Some of them might seem like throwing money away but a few of them could actually happen. Every round virtually there is a big upset. That's the good thing about football. Remember in general the bookies make their money from people going like sheep for the predictable results. The smarter punter often does just the opposite and makes a small profit in the long run.

Chelsea v Birmingham - away win (12, Victor Chandler) Everton v Blackpool - away win (8, Stan James) Sunderland v Arsenal - home win (3.05, Pinnacle) Crawley v Stoke - home win (3.75. Blue Square) Stevenage v Tottenham - home win (draw no bet) (9.5 NB Stevenage) Liverpool v Brighton - away win (15.57, Pinnacle)
