FA Cup Third Round

Well Boxing day produced an overall loss of £91.60, luckily Liverpool grabbed a last minute winner so it wasn’t even worse!

FA Cup Third round kicks off today, I don’t really like betting on cup games as they are a bit of a lottery and alot of clubs played weakened teams for a few reasons, either they know they wont win it, think they will win it, or want to concentrate on their leagues.

I’ll have a couple of bets on though, they are:

Blackburn v Coventry, over 2.5 goals, £50 at odds of 1.83

Charlton v West Brom, over 2.5 goals, £50 at odds of 1.85

Southampton v Leicester, draw lay, £50 at odds of 3.55

There are more games tomorrow so i’ll post any bets then

Windy Sunday

Well our Sunday League game has been called off due to rain and wind, so at least I get to stay in the warm!

The W Bremen v Real Madrid over 2.5 goals bet came in easily, the Liverpool one would have too, but the Bremen game gave me winnings of £109.50.

So to todays games, Liverpool v Bolton, which i’d like to bet on, the odds aren’t that good for anything, a Liverpool win is at 1.35 and over 2.5 goals at 1.91, I think i’ll place a small bet on under 2.5 goals, £50 at odds of 2.08

There are some ties in the FA Cup 2nd round today too, I will have a bet on the Port Vale v Chasetown game, £100 on over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.73

Last bet, Tottenham v Birmingham, I see goals here so again on the over 2.5 goals, £100 at odds of 1.71

Congratulations to Havant & Waterlooville reaching the 3rd round of the FA Cup, I hope they draw one of the big teams away, it’ll be a great occasion for them!
