Had a nice 12/1 acca over the weekend to give me a bit to play with over the next few weeks. Liverpool, Everton, Norwich, Lincoln, Lyon, and Dortmund.

Any decent tips for tonight's game? Thinking there won't be many goals (maybe under 2.5), and a few yellow cards

Just looking at form, Bodo/Glimt look overpriced tonight?

Think both teams will score at 10/11 seems safer than under 2.5, also like the look of the 2 likely scorers Jimenez and Rashford boosted to 10/1 from 15/2 at billy hills as a cheeky side bet.

They've been overpriced all season. Were predicted to go down but are somehow challenging for the title (least favored at 200/1 before the season).

The only argument against Glimt tonight is that they're primarily a counter attacking team and will be facing a parked bus away from home. But they beat a similar team (Kristiansund) away a few days ago so no reason they can't do it again here. On form they're easily the best team in the league.

Ok I just put down a bet on us leading by HT and winning the game. 100 quid at 4.0 odds. Fingers crossed for a good start.

Love to play on goalscorers. I've a feeling Maguire can find himself amongst he goals.

Shanghai SIPG & Over 2.5 @ 2.60

Expect them to beat Shandong, Arnautovic is banging them in for them right now. Think he’ll do the same today!

also came back to beat them in May 2-1 with 10 men.

Do you know if he’s playing can’t see any team news on the usual sources yet

Helsingborg v Göteborg - over 2.5 goals

6 out of 9 away games have gone over 2.5 goals for Göteborg. That 0-0 against Östersunds in June was the only time that they failed to score (and kept a clean sheet) away from home this season. Worth a try I reckon
Great tip mate. The odd was @2.10. Helped me recover some part of the weekend losses.

Genuinely don’t know how stuff like this happens in football :lol:
Several factors:
1 - The average quality of the Chinese player is piss poor, so even if you have 3/4 solid players, the rest of the squad will be worst than a MLS squad.
2 - China is the country where the betting markets (aka mafias) make more money, so...

East Belfast women playing tonight, got them last week at 25/1 to win and tonight they are at 11/2. Bet365 doing the game.
They won the game last night 6-3 easy win.

Had over 5 goals and East Belfast to win at 25/1 and then on the win for 11/2

Hulk and Arnautovic weren’t fully fit. Neither were expected to play today. Hulk was 90% out and Arn was 50/50. I was on Shandong +0.5 from this morning but cashed when they were on lineups. Sipg played terrible, wasn’t really that big of an upset considering the fitness of 2 of their best players.


Regarding fixes in China, the last one was Hebei at the end of the season (under Chris Coleman). They’re incredibly rare now, think it’s about 1/2 a season and recently they’ve been related to teams who need points to stay up.

I personally feel first legs are always a bit cagy as teams tend to be more defensive with a lot of to lose given the stakes.

That’s one way to look at it sure.

My view is that all three ties I would consider the stronger team as the away team, and the home sides will want to score to give themselves a better chance away from home next week.

Both relatively poor.

Hull missed a pen early on and Blackburn played the better on the night.

APOEL should have scored 2/3 against Ajax, they were pretty unlucky and Cluj missed a pen also.

Not bad. Made 6.20€ profit total. Still in negative numbers overall, though.

Sousa is in a poor form, was predictable
