EPL Week 35 Predictions 2013/14

EPL Week 35 Predictions 2013/14

Now our EPL Week 35 predictions and some more crucial matches coming up as we get down to the business end of the season.  The title hunters can’t afford to drop points and that fourth Champions League spot is still not completely decided. So, let’s go to our resident tipsters’ thoughts for EPL Week 35 predictions:

Tottenham Hotspur take on Fulham at White Hart Lane in the early Saturday kick-off.  The EPL Week 35 predictions - Spurs at home to Fulham should see a home win Fulham face a tough testCottagers are now desperate to avoid the drop and will have to play great football to overcome Spurs away from home, but they have shown great spirit of late, and were correctly predicted by both of our resident tipsters to beat Norwich (with an exact 1-0 scoreline from Betmeister).

In the next featured match Chelsea host Sunderland at Stamford Bridge. The Chelsea should win easily Sunderland are looking shakyBlack Cats are not in any form to threaten Jose Mourinho’s team at the moment.  However, they do have some form – The last time these two met was in the Capital One Cup where Sunderland defeated the Blues 2-1. You have to go back to November 2010 when the Black Cats last won at Stamford Bridge.  That was under Carlo Ancelotti and he saw Steve Bruce’s men put on a fantastic display to win 3-0.

In the early Sunday  kick off, Liverpool travel to Carrow Road to terrify the  Norwich City may be in trouble against the machine guns of Liverpoollife out of Norwich City.  The Canaries will surely crumble against the The Reds are tipped to do well at Carrow Road in our EPL Week 35 predictionsReds’ magnificent strike force.  Head to head, Liverpool have won 33 games against Norwich, lost 14 and drawn 14. The last time that the Canaries tasted success in this fixture was away at Anfield on 30th April 1994 – almost 20 years ago – and Liverpool will no doubt make it 10 in a row in the Premier League undefeated against them given their current form.

At 14:05 it’s Hull City hosting Arsenal and it’s not beyond the Tigers to spring a surprise on the their fellow FA Cup finalists who have pressure on them to win every match to finish Both our tipsters agree that Arsenal should be too strong in their EPL Week 35 predictions The Gunners may have heavy legs in this onefourth.  However, the Gunners always seem to do just that and Professor Wenger ends up having the last laugh (note Everton’s recent unexpected loss).  Incidentally, Hull have beaten Arsenal just twice in the last 100 years (1915 and 2008) in which period they’ve met 12 times.  Arsenal have won 9 of these games, with the other one drawn in 1930.

In the late Sunday game, Everton take on Manchester United at Goodison Park and this really is a most Everton will face a tough test against Champions League-less United Man Utdintriguing tie.  Prior to their slip-up the Toffees needed to win every game to guarantee finishing fourth but now it’s advantage Arsenal.  The Red Devils want the win to get into the Europa League next season – with the faintest of hopes of fourth for themselves.  Who would have predicted that for the current Champions of England just 12 months ago?  Everton beat United at Old Trafford in December in their last meeting and wins against them are becoming more common. Everton have only lost to United once in their last four meetings, winning two of them.  David Moyes won’t be such a darling at Goodison if United win here.

On Monday night Manchester City take on West Brom at the Etihad Stadium which on the surface of things looks to be a banker for the Citizens.  Although the Baggies got 3-0 up against mancity westbromSpurs and ended up fortunate to get a draw (remember Adebayor missed a penalty), it seems that they will need an even bigger head start to take any points in this one.  City are very likely to rebound to keep their title hopes alive.

Newcastle United are at home to Swansea City whilst Aston Villa host Southampton.

EPL Week 34 Predictions 2013/14

EPL Week 34 Predictions 2013/14

EPL Week 34 Predictions 2013/14

Now our EPL Week 34 predictions and the weeks seems to fly by to yet another set of fascinating encounters. Can Liverpool maintain their charge or will City finish stronger? Let’s see what our resident tipsters’ thoughts are with all of their EPL Week 34 predictions:

On Saturday April 12th the only games that could influence the top 4 positions both kick off at 15:07. Everton travel to the North East to take on Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.  The sunderland 11Toffees must keep winning to keep the pressure on Arsenal and their fate is now in their hands after their convincing victory over the Gunners last time out.  Conversely, the Black Cats will have to show an awful lot more than they did in their heavy 5-1 defeat to Tottenham on Monday night – even if they did have the lead at White Hart Lane for a short time in that game.  The one big thing that they will have going for them is the home crowd.

To Tottenham, and the men from North London are in action at The Hawthorns to take on West Bromwich Albion.westbrom 6Despite Monday night’s big win, it seems that Spurs’ top four ambitions are over now that Everton and Arsenal are going toe-to-toe for that elusive final Champions’ League place. But, mathematically at least, Tim Sherwood knows that it’s possible and they will face a Baggies side desperate to get points to avoid the drop zone.

Then a very Super Sunday rolls around on the 13th, seeing three of the top four in action. 14 mancityLiverpool host Manchester City in the game of the week or perhaps even the season.  This really is a possible title deciding match and you would have to assume that there will be goals galore.

Free Bet Alert Update Betfair are running a special for new customers for a short time: £10 Free Bet If Suarez Scores Anytime + £50 Free Bet. The good news is that qualifying bets can be placed on any sportsbook market so you don’t have to be on this match.

In what you’d expect to be a bit more of a one-sided contest, it’s Swansea City hosting Chelsea who swansea 8are not out of the title race yet by any means.  The Swans are also not completely clear of the bottom three either but may decide to park the bus.

In other matches Stoke City take on Newcastle United at the Britannia which looks to favour The Potters being at home.  Fulham may have a good chance to get some points at Craven Cottage when Norwich City visit.

Crystal Palace have been playing well at home and take on the visiting Aston Villa. Southampton are at home to Cardiff City and are expected to win comfortably at St Mary’s.

On Tuesday night, Arsenal have a London derby with West Ham in what looks on the surface 3 21to be a regulation win – 3 points should be in the bag at the Emirates unless Big Sam can inspire the Irons to a first win against the Gunners since 7th April 2007.  On that day, West Ham became the first side to win at the Emirates when Bobby Zamora scored the only goal. A repeat of that feat would seriously jeapordise Arsenal’s top 4 ambitions should Everton win again. The North London outfit will be playing just three days after their FA Cup semi-final with Wigan and this could be a factor.

EPL Week 33 Predictions 2013/14

EPL Week 33 Predictions 2013/14

Now for the EPL Week 33 predictions.  With the top four teams all in action against teams lower down the table this week, we wonder if there’s a surprise in store.  Let’s get the thoughts of our resident tipsters on EPL Week 33 predictions:

mancity 20Manchester City take on Southampton at the Etihad in the early kick off.  The Saints are not going to be easily beaten by anyone but City’s home record speaks for itself.  The Citizens to get over the line and maintain their title push.  Another City goal-fest looks less likely here.

Chelsea feature in the later 17:30 fixture and host a tough Stoke City outfit who are firmly entrenched in8 stoke the middle of the table. With the Blues having fluffed their lines against Crystal Palace last week and surrendering top spot, this is a must win and you’d have to be very brave not to back them at home – a win by a comfortable margin is expected at Stamford Bridge.

Sunday features the two teams from Merseyside with Everton at home to Arsenal at 13:30 and what an interesting tie this is.  Should 11 3Arsenal lose it would open the door for the Toffees to look to overhaul them in fourth place over the remaining games.  This is a real six pointer but the Gunners showed that they had what it takes in a similar situation with Tottenham Hotspur a few weeks ago.  Expect this to be nervy given the importance of the game.

The rampaging goal-scoring machine known as Liverpool FC are also in action on Sunday 6th April in the late kick-off as they travel to East London 14 21to take on West Ham.  The table-topping Reds should will surely secure another victory with their exciting brand of football against a Hammers side who run hot and cold.

In other matches Cardiff must get something against Crystal Palace to keep any escape hopes alive and Hull City at home to Swansea City looks like a very even match up.  Norwich City should be too good at Carrow Road for West Brom and similarly Aston Villa must surely get all of the points when hapless Fulham come to Villa Park on Saturday.

Unpredictable Newcastle host reigning champions Manchester United and will need to play well if they are to take points from David Moyes’ men who are having a slightly improved last quarter of the season.  The natives are restless at Old Trafford given this season’s sub-par performances and less that all three points here will increase the scrutiny.

On Monday night Tottenham Hotspur entertain Sunderland who are languishing near the bottom of the league.  Spurs will be looking to keep their now faint top four hopes alive and you’d expect them to have too much quality for the Black Cats.

EPL Week 32 Predictions 2013/14

Now our EPL Week 32 predictions for the 2013/14 football season.  We’re coming ever closer to the climax of an exciting Premier League race for the title.  There are some great match-ups coming so let’s see what our resident tipsters’ thoughts are with EPL Week 32 predictions:

3 mancityArsenal host Manchester City at 17:30 on Saturday 29th March in the game of the week.  Can the Gunners prove the doubters wrong?  If so, this is the time to do it. Arsenal slipped on a big banana peel on Tuesday night by conceding late against Swansea City (with the exact 2-2 scoreline predicted by Betmeister) and if they lose here fourth spot is far from guaranteed. Conversely, City fans are on a high after their team downed Manchester United on Tuesday night at Old Trafford and surely must win this if they are to win the title.

Crystal Palace need points and Chelsea are not going to give those up easily but the Eagles are 31 8 capable of an upset as we’ve seen before. After the 6-0 demolition job that the Blues did on Arsenal last week it’s difficult to see them slipping up at Selhurst Park.

Liverpool look set to continue their strong push for the title and really cement their place in next season’s Champions League when Tottenham come to 14 6 Anfield. The winning streak for the Reds is now up to seven after the narrow win against Sunderland midweek. Spurs have found the going tough against top four opposition this year and will be out to prove a point of their own. Not many will bet against the Reds from continuing on their merry way at home after they thrashed Tottenham at White Hart Lane not so long ago.  However, if Spurs can keep it tight and rattle Liverpool like Sunderland did, the winning streak may not extend to 8.

In other matches, a depressed Manchester United can only try to sneak closer to the Europa League place with a win over Aston Villa who were also well beaten at Villa Park at the weekend by Stoke City.  United need to be finishing strongly now and Wayne Rooney has been showing some great form despite the midweek loss to Man City.

Swansea v Norwich is a tough call but the Swans looked good against the Gunners midweek – and Stoke v Hull is another tough call.  Fulham will be looking to spring a surprise over visiting Everton and they they need it badly. However, the Toffees are flying and will be aiming for Champions League football next season at this rate.

West Brom have their problems but they should get the points over visiting Cardiff City who look certainties to return to the Championship.

Southampton should be just a little too hot for Newcastle to handle at St Mary’s and on Monday night Sunderland take on West Ham at the Stadium of Light.  The Black Cats will also be desperate for all the points.  It’s a season-defining game for them.

A week of near things but still in profit !!

Two big priced outsiders today ensured a profit of £6 to our suggested stakes with Diakali at 25-1 proving the main earner, and Pearlysteps chipping in a small profit. . A week of near things which could have boosted our winnings but an overall profit on our tips of £23.25 to our suggested modest stakes. Cheltenham provides the pinnacle of National Hunt races but with huge fields contesting most of the races and some big surprises,  winners are very difficult to find and to stay in profit for the whole meeting is  a satisfying result.

Now to our EPL Week 31 predictions and it’s a crush of fixtures due to catching up on postponed matches.  Crucial matches are coming up so let’s see what our resident tipsters’ thoughts are with EPL Week 31 predictions:

And what a feast of football we have in store in EPL Week 31. In the games impacting most on the title race, Chelsea host Arsenal on Saturday 22nd March before the Gunners play at home to Swansea City in midweek.  The Gunners were outplayed by Spurs yet somehow managed to nick all 3 points on Sunday thanks to an early wonder goal.  Jose Mourinho now has a 75 game unbeaten run at Stamford Bridge which is quite an amazing record.

Liverpool go to Cardiff City on Saturday and then midweek they are in action again against Sunderland at Anfield in what looks like a couple of routine victories.  The Reds dismantled Manchester United at Old Trafford and are in with a real shot at the title especially given their lack of European football this season.

Manchester City look to have the simplest task when Fulham visit the Etihad Stadium before heading across town to try and beat the once mighty Manchester United.

Speaking of Manchester United, the Red Devils face a tricky trip to the dangerous West Ham for the 17:30 kickoff and we expect a tight game.  This United team are now playing for a Europa League place at best and even that looks unlikely at this stage despite their fantastic win over Olympiakos in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

On the 23rd March Tottenham Hotspur must win at the Lane when Southampton visit to hold out any remote hope of a top 4 finish, coupled with one of the top four going on a losing streak which looks equally unlikely.

Aston Villa, buoyed by their deserved win over Chelsea, take on Stoke City in the 16:00 kickoff on Sunday’s other match.  This is another close call but Villa are looking good and should edge it.

To add to the fun we then have all of the previously postponed matches to come, too:

Count on Conti !

SILVINIACO CONTI  5PTS WIN 15.20 has the class, barring mishaps to take the feature race. CALIPTO 13.30 5PTS WIN can get his head in front in the Triumph with DIAKALI 14.05 5PTS E/W a lively outsider in the County Hurdle. PEARLYSTEPS 16.00 5PTS E/W should make the frame in the Foxhunters at a decent price,

£1 E/W Acc              32 Points Invested

Still Ahead on Day 3

A net profit of £7.35 on the day where big fields dominated. Double Ross, Rajdhani Express and Cause of Causes all made the frame at good prices-Annie Power went down fighting and only If In doubt let us down for a very tasty place accumulator. £17.75 Total Profit after Day 3

IT COULD BE ANNIE’S DAY

The appearance of the unbeaten mare ANNIE POWER  10pts WIN 15.20 provides the highlight of the day. Taking on some male superstars this mare has yet to be extended and today should show her real class.  DOUBLE ROSS 5pts E/W 13.30 should be there or thereabouts in the opener and it always pays to stick with AP Mcoy IF IN DOUBT 14.50 5pts E/W in big handicaps.

Sam Whaley Cohen knows RAJDHANI EXPRESS 14.40 5 pts E/W very well and this supremely talented rider should steer his mount into the frame.

In the last it could pay to stay with CAUSE OF CAUSES 16.40 5pts E/W a classy hurdler who seems to be coming back to form at the right time.

Champion Chase Day at Cheltenham

The Champion Chase is today’s feature race in what looks like a ferociously competitive card on the second day of the festival meeting at Cheltenham. It may pay to stick with the Walsh/Mullins combination  FAUGHEEN  13.30 –5pts win in the opener.

ANACOTTY 14.04 –5pts E/W shoulders top weight but should have the class to make the frame at a tasty price.  DELL’ARCA 14.40  5pts E/W is an improving sort and could run a big race at decent odds.

In the feature it may pay to take a chance with ARVIKA LEGIONNAIRE  15.20 5PTS E/W -not the most consistent but may be running into form at the right time in what is not the classiest of Champion Chase fields.

Our resident Cheltenham Tipster, Little Sidekick, returned an overall profit of 40 points on day one of Cheltenham.

Perhaps his best tip of the day on Tuesday was Holywell at a huge 10-1 winner in the Baylis and Harding Handicap Chase.  In the third race of the opening day, the outsider wore down Ma Filleule in the run-in to win.  Ma Filleule, bravely ridden by Nico de Boinville, was at 33-1 but Holywell managed to get ahead thanks to the magnificent ride by R P McLernon and clinch it for the second year running.

He also picked the highly fancied Quevega at 16:00 as a sure thing – winner only – and the mare duly claimed a record sixth Mares’ Hurdle.

Stay tuned for more Cheltenham tips.  For a run-down of the best free bet offers for betting on the festival, see our Cheltenham free bet special.

Cheltenham Day 1- A day of mixed emotions-profit and sadness

Leaving aside Quevega, who was touted as a near certainty- Little Sidekick advised a total outlay of 30 points over his 4 tips for a return of 70 points-giving followers a £40 net profit on the first day’s tips. Sadly one of his tips, the classy Our Conor rose very early for a hurdle and took a crashing fall which despite intensive veterinary treatment, proved fatal.

Cheltenham Tips 2014: Big fields need a big pin but there could be a quick return for the bold.

On a day when large numbers of runners dominate every race it may be best to use a big pin and close your eyes but there could be value to be had if you look closely-in the opener 13.30 VALSEAR LIDO could make the frame at a nice price-5pts E/W. Smart on the flat he looks to have the speed to cope with this type of race.

The 14.05 has an old favourite CHAMPAGNE FEVER  5pts Win-seemingly coming into form at the right time. Improving HOLYWELL 14.40 5pts E/W steps up in class but could make the frame and as a handicap this race pays the first four places.

The drying ground could work against the existing champion in the 15.20 and it may pay to stick with OUR CONOR 5PTS Win who may be the best of the younger generation in what is the most open Champion Hurdle for many years.

Fancy buying money ?  A 75% return on your investment in less than 6 minutes ? Then QUEVEGA 16.00  Win only – has to be the choice of the day. Not for the faint hearted, This ultra talented mare is not getting any younger and has not been beaten in many of her races to date. Is there a new superstar to come and take her title ? This is the big question. Set to start at odds-on in a big field, she undoubtedly has the class but do you have the bottle to buy money !!!

EPL Week 30 Predictions 2013/14

Now our EPL Week 30 predictions.  The Premier League arguably may not have the best teams or stars in the world at the moment but there’s no doubt it is the closest and most interesting.  Crucial matches are coming up so let’s see what our resident tipsters’ thoughts are with EPL Week 30 predictions:

Manchester City going to Hull City is unlikely to spring a surprise result such is the difference in quality combined with City’s determination to bounce back from their FA Cup and Champions League exit to Wigan and Barcelona respectively. Perhaps Steve Bruce will use similar tactics as Wigan did, but it’s unlikely lightning will strike again.

Aston Villa host Chelsea and with Benteke back in form they could conceivably cause the Blues some problems.  Now that would be a result that the title race really needs because Chelsea are starting to run away with it.

Sunday doesn’t get much more super than this – First, there’s Manchester United hosting title chasing Liverpool at Old Trafford.  And how Red Devils fans would relish denting that dream. Moyes would have to get them really revved up if they are to get a result.  A must-see for die-hards and neutrals alike.

Then Arsenal must overcome Tottenham at White Hart Lane in the North London derby in order to keep their waning title hopes on track.  Spurs have not done well against teams above them this season, as demonstrated in their capitulation at Stamford Bridge.   It’s going to be loud.

In other matches impacting things further down the table, Sunderland can beat Crystal Palace at home, Southampton should account for Norwich comfortably and Fulham could spring a surprise against unpredictable Newcastle who now look safe against the drop but with not much to play for.

Everton will surely be too strong for Cardiff, Stoke v West Ham has draw written all over it, and Swansea should edge out West Brom.
