For this week's mid week fixtures I bet on Bournemouth vs Leicester over 2.5 goals at 1.81.  With Jamie Vardy looking on continuing his new found form, I think Bournemouth is the perfect match up for LCFC as they may be easier to play against compared to Man City.  Bournemouth isn't shy on firing and taking shots too.  So it's an easy bet.

For my second bet it's Stoke vs Southampton, Stoke to win +0 at 2.30.  I'm not really confident with this one but I'm going with my gut with it.  I think Stoke played well vs Arsenal (considering...) and I especially liked Joe Allen in that match.  Against Southampton, at home in front of the Stoke fans, I'd expect Stoke to win 1 - 0.  If it's a draw, I'll take that too and my money back.  Wink

Tottenham has the best defense in the EPL so far with 10 goals conceded.  Man United has been playing better but they seem to be having a hard time finding the back of the net.  The Spurs isn't exactly scoring well vs good teams too.  So easy bet on the under 2.5 goals @ 1.80.

With no League Cup games for both Man City and Chelsea, I would expect the well rested squads to go at it and give us a fun and exciting game.  Of course City is an automatic bet for me.  But my real bet is over 2.5 goals at 1.79.  I think this game will be a tough one for both clubs, but goals will be scored at both halves.

For this weekend, I think Westbrom's high confidence after winning 4 - 0 from their last match could give them the edge vs Hull even if they're playing away.  That's because Hull is looking like they have accepted the fact that they are indeed going down at the end of this season.  My bet Westbrom to win +0 at 1.81.

For my second bet, it's Watford to win 0, -0.5 at 2.10 vs Stoke with them playing at home.  No explanation needed except that I think Watford is in better form than Stoke lately.

It's CL week again but I usually don't bet on them as I don't really know what's going on with the other domestic leagues and tend to stick with the EPL.  But this week I found a bet thanks to a newbie for putting it in my attention by posting about it in the CL/Europa League thread.

My bet for this week's matches is Monaco to win +0 at 1.83 vs Tottenham.  The Spurs have a good squad but they haven't been playing as well as expected lately, they are also playing Monaco away so that's another minus for them in this match.  With those odds at +0, it's a bet I'm willing to make.

Yes I know they won vs Westham last weekend, but I'm still not convinced about their form if it's getting better or not.  Maybe it is, but we'll see...

Hmm that could indeed be a nice pick.
The odds are great and Monaco is in good performance at the moment.
Definitely worth a try I think.I will give it a shot!Thanks man!
Will follow and check your thread regularly by the way.Good luck!

Please feel free to post your picks here as well.  I need more experience in sports betting, so sharing your thought process on each of your bets would be appreciated.  And like bitcoinmaster44 said, my picks are indeed poor.  Cheesy  But I'm trying.  Thanks.

If you do not have a thought or a good analysis about the sport, then my advice is joined to the gambling community or a community that discusses all the sporting events, because I believe in those communities there must be some people who are very familiar with doing an analyze and predict every game in progress. I think the thread you made this not less effective and help everyone or you

Thankfully the international break is over and we're back to club football.  Before declaring my bet, I'd have to say that I was really disappointed that my bet on Woodley was a draw and my wager was returned.  I was watching the fight in a bar with a friend and have already cheered for the victory.  I was about to say I was paying for the drinks, only for Bruce Buffer to return and say there was a mistake.  Sad

Anyway for this weekend my bet is for Watford to win, +0 at 2.03 vs Leicester City.  Imho Watford is more in form if you compare it with LCFC, the game is at Watford's home and this is important especially when the players are coming home tired from international duty.

I really thought we would of won our bet on Swansea +1 against Man Utd but they came out firing just like they did to Leicester City a few weeks ago where they scored early goals in the 1st half and no goals in the 2nd half. The disappointing thing about this weekends games is that Man City drew and are now 2 points behind Liverpool which they destroyed Watford. 

Yeah, but it's more because of Swansea's fault.  They allowed United to get away with the three points very easily.  They didn't pressure United enough and just didn't play a good game overall that day.

Anyway here's my bet for UFC 205.  Woodley to win at 2.69.  A lot of people are rooting for Thompson and those people keep saying that this fight will be like Rory vs Woodley.  I beg to differ.  Thompson is mostly a kicker and he's not that good with his hands as he is with his feet.  It was the jab that Rory beat Woodley with.

There are also a group of people who think that this fight will also be like Thompson vs Hendricks.  Nope, Woodley is stronger, way faster and way more explosive than Hendricks.  He will close the distance on Thompson easier than expected because the latter doesn't posses a good job like Rory does.

Woodley is underrated.  There value in betting for him.

I agree with Swansea mate and as I said Leicester let Man Utd win easily too early on in the season.

I am with you on Woodley to win and to be honest I don't understand why he is not the favorite? anyway I'm willing to take those odds and bet on him straight out. I was going to put him in my parlay but I don't like to play to many legs with parlays so I just went with a 4 leg parlay and took Woodley straight out. I can see some upsets in tonight's UFC 205.

Now I feel really good on my Swansea +1 handicap bet to win vs Man United.  The line made a somewhat big move down to 1.68 for the +1 Swansea handicap.  This was caused by the loss vs Fenerbahce for sure.  I can't help but feel sorry for one of my most hated man in European football, Jose Mourinho.  If United fails to qualify for the CL, some players may be looking at the exit to play for better clubs.

I think your bet on Swansea +1 is a good bet as not only like you said Man Utd had to travel for their Europa League game but also that Man Utd have been in poor form and let's be honest even though they beat Man City which by the way I also am a big fan of, the team Man City put out was second rate compared to Man Utd's team. I did mention it in the Premier League topic that they would not get much out of that win because they were basically playing kids lol.



Yup.  United was up against City's B team and all the got was one goal? There's something really wrong with United that Mourinho can't fix.

Anyway here's my bet for UFC Fight Night 98.  I back Tony Ferguson to beat Dos Anjos at 2.23.  There's a couple of reasons for this.  First this fight is gonna go back and forth, neck and neck, with no one fighter dominating the fight imho.  Second, the more aggressive fighter will win the fight, and that's clearly Ferguson.

I can see Ferguson blitzing and pressuring Dos Anjos into a submission or even a KO/TKO.  He's gonna be unpredictable and a little reckless which is what will give him the edge in this fight.  And Ferguson can take some shots too as seen in his fight vs Barboza.

i will subscribe to this, lets see how it goes

Haha.  I discourage everyone from following my bets.  The point of this thread is to express my thought process and hopefully someone in the forum who is good at sports betting will chime in and critique my analysis.  I would greatly appreciate it more if I was told I was wrong with a constructive explanation why rather than blindly follow the analysis without thought or question.

But thanks for following, it will surely keep me on my toes and it will make me try harder to come to the right decision and analysis.

With United coming in from the Europa League this weekend, hopefully tired and feeling weary for an away game vs Swansea, I think there's some value in betting on Swansea to win, +1 at 1.81.  Mourinho could again be ordering his men to park the bus and try to gain a point.  Both clubs have got their confidence shot so a 0 - 0 draw is the most likely outcome imho.

If United make another disappointing performance at the Europa League later then that's a sign of more disappointments to come vs Swansea.
