That’s a cracking healthy return being offered this week.
ICT are my biggest doubt - Stuttgart won’t be an issue.
Here are my EPL predictions of the week. I will post later with my betting tips because I know you are dying to hear them, seen as though it is proven that I’m the best at football predictions.
City v Newc D#
Chel v Fulham H#
Derby v Bolton D*
Ports v Reading H#
Sund v Black H*
West v Arsenal D*
Wigan v Liverpool A#
Birm v Man u A#
Everton v Middle H#
Spurs v Villa D*
are the ones im not entirely convinced about, in particular spurs villa game can go either way. Villa are playing decent at the mo and they are draw kings away from home. Also im not sure what is going on at spurs will effect their performance. Also blackburn are a tough team to beat but I still believe Sunderland will be hard to beat at home and they did not play midweek which pushes them in favour
out of these I believe that the Liv Chels and city game are more or less garunteed and will prob feature in my accum.
What do the SPL nerds think of Hibs - Kilmarnock this weekend? A “no-bet”. I’ve Hibs in a muggo 12-teamer, but I’ve read Kilmarnock are worth a look as they have a great away record.
I’d reckon Hibs will win. They were very fortunate to beat Celtic last week but they do have some decent players (midfielders in particular). Killie are overrated I think. They’d a semi-decent start to the season but their momentum is gone and they won’t be a top 6 side at the end of it all. I’d have them in a tier below the likes of Hibs and Dundee United.
I’d stay away from Hibs-Killie. To sum up Hibs’ inconsistency they beat Celtic last weekend and then got turned over good and proper by Motherwell in the League Cup during the week. They’ve had a good start to the league but they’re capable of doing anything. Killie will struggle now that Naismith has joined Rangers and they lost to Hamilton midweek so Hibs should beat them at home but I wouldn’t bank on it.
Can’t believe what raven posted about the SPL - Aberdeen and Caley Thistle are certs!
Aidan O’ Brien is running All my Loving in the 3.45 today at Ascot. The trip should suit, apparently, and it’s definitely a drop in class. I’d put more stock in the fact that it’s his only runner there and Mick Kinane on board. It’s a big favourite though, so the odds are about evens methinks
