  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.55 & 56
    I had a bit of a lucky escape last week that meant I kept my balance up above £500. I’d rather be lucky than good any day of the week. So I hope my luck holds out tonight. I’m offski for the weekend on a wee trip to Inverness so I’m going to go for two bets tonight in order to keep some momentum going with The Challenge. First up its an Overs bet on...

  • Selectabet’s Picks v Lawro’s Predictions: 28th February
    The big game of the weekend is the Carling Cup final but there’s also 8 crucial Premier League matches to get stuck into. Lawro’s gone for his usual predictable predictions so lets see if we can beat him this after he landed the biggest profit last week. Bring it on Lawro! Everton v West Brom Albion are awful on the road. Everton are great at home. A low-scoring...

  • Man City’s Odds to Win the UEFA Cup Slashed
    Are City really favourites to win the UEFA CUP? After a night of surprise results in the UEFA Cup Manchester City have been installed as shock favourites to lift the trophy. Mark Hughes’ side comfortably negotiated their Round of 32 tie against FC København, and in the next round will take on their third Danish opponents of the season, Aalborg, whose 6-1 aggregate...

  • Tuesday Night’s Tips
    It’s not long until kick-off in tonights games so here’s a quick run down of what I fancy tonight. Lyon v Barcelona – Over 2.5 goals Incredibly Barca have scored twice as many La Liga goals (71) than Lyon have in Ligue 1 (35) in fewer games and they way they play you just expect goals, goals goals in every game. The two have met each other 4 times on...

  • Inter v Man Utd: ‘Jose, I Am Your Father!’
    Inter v Man Utd – Live on ITV1. Kick off 7.45pm You remember that bit in Star Wars? Where Luke Skywalker is clinging on for dear life and then Darth Vader delivers the final, fatal verbal blow; “I am your father”. Well, there’s a little bit of me thinks Jose Mourinho could actually be Fergie’s secret lovechild. The tactical nous, the mind...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.53 & 54
    I didn’t get the chance to post about Bet 53 but I was on the Overs in the Barca v Espanyol match last night. Seems it was quite a game as Espanyol shocked their hosts with a 2-1 win which was a good enough result for me. I had £100 on at 1/2 with Paddy Power so another £50 was added to the coffers taking me over £500 for the first time in ages. And so onto Bet...

  • £20,000 Challenge: Bet of the Day No.52
    Bet No.52 looks a bit dodgy in all honesty. I’ve gone with a game that, according to my system, looks like a good overs bet. But, the bookies don’t seem to agree. It’s in Italy’s Serie B between Grosetto – who I’ve backed with some success already this season – and top of the table Livorno. I reckon it looks about a 70 –...
