Football Betting Blog update

It’s been a few weeks since any bets have been posted, so i’ll just update on the last bets first.

Liverpool went and lost 3-1 at Reading, so the Liverpool win bet was blown out, luckily the over 2.5 goals bet covered that and a £14 profit was had on that game.

Osasuna v Valencia finished 0-0 so a loss of £120

Ath Bilbao v Real Madrid finished 0-1 so a profit of £50 on that game.

There will be a few games to bet on boxing day and over the weekend so I will post a few bets on boxing day morning.

Have a great Christmas :)

8th December

Reading v Liverpool

The midweek correct score in the AC Milan v Celtic game came up trumps, a profit of £230, which handsomely covered the £100 loss on Saints overs, typically saints easily got overs today!

So onto todays bet, Reading v Liverpool, Liverpool starting with an atttacking lineup of Voronin, Crouch and Torres, Jack Hobbs taking Hypia’s place at the back, so the bets:

Over 2.5 goals, £100 at odds of 2.14
Liverpool to win £100 at odds of 1.59

also, some La Liga games tonight so will have some draw lay bets on

Osasuna v Valencia, draw lay £50 at odds of 3.4
Ath Bilbao v Real Madrid, draw lay att odds of 3.5

7th October

A very good weekend

Thankyou Santander!! another £50 added to the total making the profit £473 after 12 bets.

It’s quite good doing this paper betting, with real money I’d bet on every game/market available almost and lose sight of the whole point of how I made the £1600 before, which was just basically betting on laying draws and backing over 2.5 goals.

Chasing losses doesn’t help either, I think i’ll stick to the paper betting for now and start using real money once my mindset is right again!

The stats now stand at 9 winning bets out of 12, 75% strike rate!

7th October

Still making profit

Well the Arsenal result came in but not the Reading overs so they offset each other, Chelsea won so that adds another £273 to the profit which now stands at £423.

So far from 8 wins from 11 bets a strike rate of 73%

Next bet:

Santander vs Valladolid draw lay, £50 at odds of 3.5 (liability of £125)

6th October

Spanish Football Bet

Unfortunately Bristol City v Sheff United finished 2-0, so a loss of £74 puts the bank down to £750.

There’s only one game in La Liga today so the next bet is to lay the draw for £100 in Valencia v Espanyol, odds of 3.90 (liability of £290)

I was tempted to back Valencia to win at odds around 1.74 and over 2.5 goals looks good at 2.10 but i’ll stick with just laying the draw.
