Sunday 17-2-13

Morning all, a profitable Saturday, Summer must be coming! The drift on Only Orsenfoolsies certainly made my day, as this blog runs everything to SP!!! I don't have any horse bets today, a couple were close but I've just decided to take a day off. I have, however, backed 4 results in the footy. My bets are 3 singles, a four time, and 3 doubles using the banker and each of the singles. Naturally, I'll leave it to you guys to decide if a) you follow the selections, and b) how you see fit to stake them. Good Luck however you go.

BANKER

NAPOLI to beat Sampdoria 1.44 (4/9) BetVictor
The last 4 fixtures here have all gone the way of the hosts, and Napoli gained a 1-0 victory in Genoa earlier this season. Napoli have picked up an astonishing 29 points from a possible 36 at home this season and having played at home on Thursday shouldn't feel too many after-effects. The visitors have seen a little resurgence since the winter break, beating Juventus and Roma and a draw with Milan but I just think that history is against them here and I make Napoli the banker.

SINGLES

BOLOGNA to win @ Catania 4.2 (16/5) 188bet
Catania are decent at home but very much rely on shutting teams out, they don't score many. The Bolognese, in comparison, are generally involved in high scoring thrillers. I think the visitors could have too much firepower for the hosts, and it's certainly a hypothesis I'm comfortable testing out at just over 3/1

HANNOVER to win @ Nuremberg 3.9 (29/10) Pinnacle
The hosts have only won this fixture once in the last 5 renewals, with 2 of the last 3 going to the visitors. Hannover seem to either win or lose away from home so effectively you are already getting the book to your advantage with the draw negated. Again this is a price I'm more than happy to play with.

DRAW Valladolid v Atletico Madrid 3.6 (13/5) Pinnacle
These two played out a pretty close game in Madrid in September with Valladolid losing by the odd goal after a strong start by Atleti. Draws are often a decent value bet, because a) every game starts as a draw, and b) if one side leads by a goal, the other side seems to have the majority of the play in the final 5 minutes of a game. This stadium is joint league leader for draws this season so it's certainly not an outside chance.

There you have it, Good Luck
The Acca pays about 81/1 with a pinnacle account, or 77/1 with BetVictor is the best mainstream. Always worth looking into a Pinnacle account, they are very strong on Tennis and continental football.
