30th December 2009
First of all a belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all. I apologize for the lack of activity recently as it is the holiday season and I was on holiday. :)
Now straight into the action. How about the Gunners! Just a month ago, after drawing to Sunderland and beaten by Chelsea at the Emirates, they have bounced back and could possibly close the gap to 1 point. But lets not count our chickens yet.
Portsmouth is at the bottom of the table, Arsenal will have Fabregas back and are sitting at 3rd potentially with 2 games to spare. Arsenal away win at 1.53@BET365. You do the math. Pretty sweet odds! I am even as bold as to say to go for Arsenal -1 paying a whopping 2.50@BET365.
SUMMARY:
Portsmouth vs Arsenal : Arsenal away WIN or Arsenal -1
Happy New Year!

Barclays Premier League Predictions (Sunday)
13th December 2009
I apologize for leaving this so late. I am happy that I avoided a disastrous Saturday. With Chelsea and Man City drawing their games, Tottenham loss and Man Utd losing to Aston Villa. But the game of the week must be Liverpool vs Arsenal.
Both teams have been inconsistent of late. Both have come off a one goal defeat midweek in the Champions League, even though the result did not influence the qualifications. Liverpool have their dangermen, but at the moment they are not scoring freely like the Liverpool we know. Arsenal on the other hand lost a few key players and have lost their sting in the final third.
The bookmakers have Liverpool as favourites at 2.20@BET365 and of course the do have home advantage. But let me remind you of the last time these two teams met at Anfield, Mr Arshavin scored 4 outstanding goals but the game ended at 4:4. In fact, in their last 6 match ups, they have drawn 4 times. I have not hidden the fact that I am an Arsenal fan, and this is a great opportunity for them to catch up to Chelsea and Man Utd after they dropped points on Saturday. As much as I hope that they will win, it will be difficult to say the least. But at 1.61@BET365, Arsenal +1 is a great bet.
SUMMARY:
Liverpool vs Arsenal: Arsenal +1
Good luck!

European Champions League Predictions (Wednesday)
9th December 2009
What an amazing Tuesday night! 2 out of 2 and both bets paying over 3.50!!!!! Exactly like I predicted, Porto won, and that paid 4.75, and Michael Owen scored a hattrick and beating Wolfsburg paying out 3.50. That is an amazing result. For those who followed my tips, they would be laughing to the bank by now.
Can we repeat that success on Wednesday? Yes I think! This is a time when the bookmakers go a bit weird because many assumptions are made and the odds are not based on team strength or form, but rather the result of qualification.
Tonight Olympiakos will face Arsenal at home. Arsenal has already qualified therefore they are at long odds to win. However I know that Arsenal do not play to lose. Wenger will have his opportunity to try out new things and use some younger players. However we all know the strength of Arsenal's youth. Therefore Arsenal away win at 4.50@BET365 is very tempting. If you feel uneasy about that, then go for Arsenal +1 at 1.80@BET365.
There are not many other games that are worth a punt. Some are too tough to call, so only one tip today. But if it pays, it will be a nice payout. :)
SUMMARY:
Olympiakos vs Arsenal: Arsenal away WIN
Good luck!

Champions League Predictions
8th December 2009
There are a few interesting games tonight. Because some teams have already qualified, the odds are skewed from the norm as the bookmakers assume they would field a weaker team and would not mind losing. But this is a good chance to pick up some profit at very high returns.
Athletico Madrid is 6 points behind FC Porto and have no chance of progressing in the Champions League. However they need to make sure Chelsea beats APOEL so that Madrid can play in the Europa League. Even though they can secure that by beating Porto, but on paper, Porto looks much stronger than Athletico. at 4.75@BET365 to win away is a scrumptious payout, or Porto +1 at 1.90 is pretty decent too. Chelsea should win against APOEL therefore regardless of this game's result, Madrid should get into the Europa league also.
Wolfsburg needs to win to make sure they progress in the Champions League, but they face the mighty Red Devils. We would assume that Manchester will field their second stringers having secured progression. However Wolfsburg would leapfrog Manchester and finish first in their group if they beat United. MU would want to hold first place, and even then, their second stringers might be strong enough to win. They would want to prove their place and fight for a first team spot. MU away win at 3.50@BET365 is a big return.
These two games are a bit of a long shot, but worth a punt.
SUMMARY:
Athletico Madrid vs FC Porto: Porto away win, Porto +1
Wolfsburg vs Manchester United: United away win
Good luck!

English League Cup (Carling Cup) Predictions
2nd December 2009
I apologize for not giving any tips for the weekend games. Thankfully we missed out on a disastrous Champions League result as Besiktas beat Manchester United. As some might have guessed, I am an Arsenal fan and it was not a happy weekend for me.
Tonight there will be two games played in the League Cup, both a clashes between Premier League teams. The first one is Manchester City vs Arsenal. As much as I want to see Arsenal progress in the League Cup, I fear this will be a tough game for them. Arsene Wenger always fields his young side (mind you his first team is already very young) in League Cup games. Mark Hughes will also give his fringe players some game time. But do not forget, City's fringe players are the likes of Santa Cruz, Petrov, Tevez, etc. With Man City at home, and Arsenal's recent lack of goals, it will be difficult for the away team to win. To be honest I think as an Arsenal fan, I would be happy with a draw. It pains me to bet against Arsenal, so I would avoid this game. But it is up to you to decide.
The other fixture seems a bit straight forward. Blackburn has been very inconsistent this season and they need to concentrate on climbing the ladder in the Premier League. Chelsea however is running hot. Even if Ancellotti decides to field a weaker team, they are still leagues above Blackburn. Chelsea away win 1.50@BET365 is a decent return.
SUMMARY:
Man City vs Arsenal : AVOID
Blackburn vs Chelsea: Chelsea away win
Good luck!
