Beat the Bookies: Week 34

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 17/03/2011

LAST week the losing sequence finally came to an end when Aldershot beat Cheltenham. In fact it's a shame that we didn't pick more than one of the League Two tips, as all four of the away wins we had selected came in - all at fairly long odds!

Home > 2010-2011 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 34

  • Chelsea v MAN CITY (6.5). Both sides have played in European games at home this week, but a couple of good results have made Chelsea strong favourites again. We made a lot of money backing them earlier in the season - the time has come again. 6.5 is a very long price for a well-organised City side who have the players to beat any team.
  • Tottenham v West Ham (DRAW, 4.0) - It's not often we tip a draw but this one looks good value at 3-1. Both sides have very similar recent form, West Ham would probably take a point at Spurs, and it's a local derby.
  • Wigan v BIRMINGHAM (3.75). A relegation six pointer, now Birmingham are out of the cup they'll be desperate to ensure their season doesn't end in the disaster of relegation. They're a better side then their league position suggests, but Wigan aren't are look probably the most likely side to go down.
  • EVERTON v Fulham. Everton are very strong at Goodison and should see off Fulham.

  • EASTBOURNE (2.62) v Barrow. Eastbourne's home record is not bad, Barrow's away record is bad. Should be an easy home win - 2.62 looks very generous.

  • Monkey's bet: Grimsby to win 3-1, 19.0, Bet365

    Selected Bets

  • Man City to beat Chelsea , 6.0, Bet365
