One Betfair trade today - Sunday 3rd November

4pm Atletico Madrid v Atletico Bilbao - This is a bit pricey up at 5.3 but even at that the stats are so good I think it represents good enough value to trade. In particular I like the early scoring stats of the home team, and best of all...... how about this for some form..... […]

Well some green in the end....

Well it was a dodgy one in the end, an ar5e-twitcher as they are known in the business 😀 But when the red card went against Villareal i knew there would be at least a break even or a small green on the cards, so i waited a while and managed to exit with £60 […]

FFS!

0-1 to Getafe already! Where's that damn COIN?! Holding out, steady nerve and all that. It's really not that bad, any game which opens with a goal within a few minutes is likely to be a lively game with a nice attacking form of play, which suits me just fine. Either they go 2 goals […]

One slightly nervous trade today

Well I ruled out 3 possibles today, Heerenveen (cup game i realised after researching!), Villareal, and Atl Bilbao. But I wasn't sure if I made a mistake discounting Villareal game so I had another look at what put me off..... It's pretty damn clear that Villareal are on a great run of form, and scoring […]

30th October - Football trade analysis

Well its a big coupon today so i spent a fair while on the stats and stuff. Here is a bit of a commentary: Valencia v Almeria - It looked promising just based on goal stats, but combining the price as a factor (which it is, at 5.3!) its a no trade for me. Also […]

Trading update

Well a bit of a f**k over day again, but scraped through without losing anything thanks to Gijon. Tranmere scored so I took a £60 loss there to get the hell out of yet another game which went nothing like the stats suggested it should. took £60 green on Gijon, and leaving it alone for […]

2 Football Trades Today - Sunday 13th October

Bradford v Tranmere - Strong stats here, an absolute bargain price if you ask me! (4.4) Sporting Gijon v Real Jaen - Even stronger stats. I took the higher price of 4.8 to get my £200 lay all matched now rather than when the traders come along and see those stats later! Stats Link THAT […]

Genk v Mechelen - I have laid the draw here. I don't generally like Belgian games, but I have had some good winners from Genk in the past and they seem to be scoring well at present so its a trade for me.

Nice v Valenciennes - its cheap at 3.75 and good enough to trade for me. Paok v Platanias - bit pricey but PAOK should score a few here so its a trade for me.

Final update

Oh well. Won £100 on the Madrid trade but lost £100 on Roda JC. Ho hum, usually works!

Update

Both tempters which I turned down are 1-0 at HT, so two winners that would have been if I hadn't ruled them out. I do so very much wish that didn't bug me!!!!!! I noticed Roda JC v Heerenveen is 3-3 with 15 minutes to go. Any game with 6 goals and 15 minutes to […]

I like the look of Sp Lisbon v Rio Ave. In particular I like the fact that they have both played the same team in the past few weeks (Arouca) - Sp Lisbon beat them 5-1, but Rio Ave lost 1-0 to them. This is a great piece of intelligence, a great way to compare […]

Well that's me out of that trade before 35 mins 🙂 I waited for the second goal as I expected one and thankfully it came just as the stats suggested. There will no doubt be more, but I am out with £170 greened from a £200 lay bet. Happy with that! Onwards and upwards

One trade today

Munchen Gladbach v Braunschweig - This is high priced but looks a strong pick to me. Munchen Gladbach have scored no less than 7 goals in just their first two games, so I am expecting a good winner on this trade. I have gone heavier than usual here, especially when taking the price into account. […]

Well crossing fingers didn't help!

One of those big surprise results, typical! The stats screamed a home win, an easy one too, the survey of football people on Futbol24 said 90% in favour of a home win, but its 2-0 to the dog currently!! Very weird, but thats early season footie for ya. No real harm done, £200 lay bet […]
