Arsenal v Fenerbache Prediction and Betting Tips By Andrew Clark

Arsenal v Fenerbache Prediction and Football Betting Tips Tonight | That's a Goal: "Arsenal play Fenerbache in the Champions League qualifying tonight with progression to the group stage all but assured."

Last week’s impressive 3-0 win in Turkey has given Arsenal an almost unassailable lead in the tie, a goal at the Emirates tonight will see Fenerbache needing four to progress.

Arsenal have never lost to Fenerbache in European meetings, drawing twice and winning the other three and they have won their last 11 Champions League qualifying matches.

In the betting for tonight’s match Arsenal are just 2/5 for the win, the draw is 4/1 and Fenerbache are 17/2.

The Turkish outfit have not won in their last eight away matches and look set to be fighting a hopeless battle here, even if they somehow progress they might be thrown out of the competition. They did however pick up a 1-0 home win at the weekend.

Arsenal’s Oliver Giroud has scored in all three of his competitive matches so far this season, he is 9/2 to score the first goal tonight and 5/4 at Sky Bet to score anytime, however the Frenchman has never scored in four games in a row for Arsenal so it might be best to look elsewhere for a goalscorer bet and Theo Walcott fits the bill.

He has not opened his account yet but is getting in all the right positions; he had four shots on target against Fulham and can test the Fenerbache keeper again here. Back him to score the first goal.

For our second bet it is hard to see past an easy Arsenal win here and there is value in betting on Arsenal to win both halves of the match. An early goal kills off the tie and Fenerbache would probably give it up after that. Arsenal to win both halves.

Football Accumulator Betting Tip for Tonight By Andrew Clark

Football Accumulator Tips for Today, Today's Accumulator Tips : "The Capital One Cup takes place tonight giving us a chance to get a winning football accumulator bet across the fixtures."

As ever with early rounds of the competition the Premier League sides will look to rest some players and that makes it difficult to have a strong bet on these matches, although there is potential for an upset so the really short prices such as Liverpool, West Ham and West Brom are probably best avoided.

Tonight’s banker look to be Bolton Wanderers to win at Tranmere. The hosts have showed nothing this season and were thumped 5-0 at the weekend. Elsewhere we are siding with Derby to beat Brentford. Derby won 3-0 at the weekend but have been poor so far at home. This will be the ideal chance to get their first home win of the season against a Brentford side who have only drawn both away matches so far.

Our third pick is Huddersfield to beat Charlton. Charlton were 3-1 down against Doncaster at the weekend before a waterlogged pitch saved them and are yet to win a league game. Confidence will be high at Huddersfield after a 5-1 win on Saturday made it three wins in their last four matches.

Our final pick is Southampton to beat Barnsley. The Championship side have not won this season in 90 minutes, their first round success needed penalties against Scunthorpe and they shipped five goals against Blackburn at the weekend, the Premier League class of Southampton should be more than enough to get the win tonight.

PAOK vs Schalke betting tips 27 August - Champions League By Neuro

PAOK vs Schalke.

PAOK didn’t impress in the first leg in Germany, but still managed to get the draw with a goal from Stoch, who played a very good game and showed his rich talent. Approximately three thousands of PAOK’s fans made the trip to Germany to support the team, but the club will be deprived from their own fans in the returning leg.

Greek team is coming from a 2:0 defeat away from home against Panaitolikos last weekend, in a game without spectators too. Their coach Stevens obviously underestimated opponent and rotated his squad a lot, while the hosts showed to be very passionate and achieved great victory that will surely give them much of a morale boost for the next matches. However, as it could be understood, everything revolves for PAOK around this game for now and there is no doubt that their hopes got much higher after the first leg.

Left back Lino is injured and will not participate, same as midfielders Garcia and Vukic, just as winger Lawrence. Also out of the match will remain central defender Lopez, but only for tactical reasons.

Schalke completed four official matches into the new season without a victory last Saturday. Most recent match saw them losing away to Hannover 2:1, as everything went from for them from the start of the game. Howedes got excluded with a red card in fourteenth minute, while the hosts took the lead in next minute from a penalty kick.

Hosts had a 2:0 lead after a half-time whistle, while Schalke couldn’t have done much more but a reducing goal in 55th minute by Szalai. After another defeat, pressure is even more increased in their team and possible exclusion tonight, will cause most likely dismissal of coach Keller. The coach has said that the team has to show personality today, patience and attempt to dominate the field, with possession adding that they have to be aware of counter attacks PAOK will wait for. Important midfielder Farfan is coming back into the starting lineup, same as right back Uchida. Main striker Huntelaar will miss fourth consecutive game, while central defender Papadopoulos, left back Kolasinac, midfielders Obasi and Annan remain all long term sidelined.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 5 of PAOK Thessaloniki FC’s last 6 games in the Champions League (including qualifiers)

PAOK Thessaloniki FC have failed to win their last 7 matches in the Champions League (including qualifiers).

German side will have to play open football sooner or later and that should give enough space for fast counter attacks from Greek side to score a goal. On the other hand, Schalke remains slight favorite and will surely try to score at least one goal early into the game.

Bet: Both teams to score 

Manchester United vs Chelsea Prediction and Betting Tips By Vio

A baptism of fire awaits David Moyes in his first home fixture as Manchester United host Chelsea at Old Trafford in the mouth-watering MNF fixture with both sides trying to steal a march on each other in the Championship race.

With more sub plots than a Shakespearean play, Monday night’s match promises to be one to remember. The hyperbole surrounding Wayne Rooney’s future, the return of Mourinho to Old Trafford in, if you believe the rumours, not quite in the circumstances he envisaged last season, will Mata start and does he fit into Jose’s plans?, and many more, all makes for interesting viewing.

There’s not many times that you’ll find United at odds against when playing at home and many will snaffle that price up. Chelsea are a generous 85/40 with StanJames whilst the draw for the Trevor Brookings is 5/2 in many places.  It’s a tough game to call in many respects so the out right market is swerved.

In the five encounters last year there were a massive 20 goals bagged in total, an average of four goals a game. Therefore +2.5 goals looks a solid bet but the odds reflect this and it’s overlooked. So too is both teams to score. Whilst this has occurred in 11 out of the last 15 matches but at the anorexic price of 13/20 is passed over in favour of there being +1.5 goals by half time.

In the last five fixtures at Old Trafford the half time goals count reads as 0/2/3/2/1. The zero can be forgiven given the fact that the league was already secure for The Red Devils and the regular oomph of a regular United v Chelsea fixture wasn’t evident that day but that won’t be the case this Monday. At 7/4  it’s worth taking the chance.

In the last seven contests between the two teams, Chelsea have won the corner count on six occasions, with the other game ending all square. At Old Trafford last season the results read 2-7 / 2-4 and the season before that it ended up 4-10 and in that match United ran out 3-1 winners. In the Most Corners market Bet365 have Chelsea at 13/10 and given the above, that has to be backed.

It would a twist of fate should Rooney start on Monday night but given his recent ‘injury’ troubles he’s likely to start on the bench given the form of Welbeck and RVP against Swansea. He should be given a run out at some point and given the saga surrounding his future in M16, it’s almost inevitable that he’ll have some part to play in this game. At 10/1 to score last, and who knows, it may be the winner, with 188bet it’s worth a punt on the follicy challenged forward.

Man Utd vs Chelsea Betting Tips

+1.5 Goals in the first half – 7/4 

Most Corners – Chelsea – 13/10 

Rooney to score last – 10/1 

Premier League Outright Betting Tips: Mour Jose Magic By Stephen Hunt

The Premier League title race looks wide open ahead of this season and the bookies' latest odds are struggling to split Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea. But who will win the Premier League 2013/14?

Last season’s title winners Manchester United signed off the season by saying bye bye to Fergie after 27 years, he has moved upstairs and in has come former Everton manager David Moyes. It’s going to be an interesting season for United and a little weird too having a new man in charge. I’m not sure too much will change to be honest and I’m pretty sure Sir Alex will still be putting his two peneth in. The Community Shield win on Sunday is the prefect competative start to their seaosn after a shakey pre-season. 

Transfer wise, only one in so far in Guillermo Varela. Who you say? Well I’ve never heard of him either! He is a 20 year old full back from Uruguay who I wouldn’t expect to see much of this season, well maybe in the League Cup if Moyes continues Fergie’s way of thinking about the League Cup. Moyes (or was it Sir Alex?) has brought Phil Neville back with him as coach along with making Ryan Giggs coach too. The Wayne Rooney saga will not go away and after being left out the Community Shield squad is he being frozen out by David Moyes? He is strongly linked with Chelsea and could be heading south before September 2nd.

The worst kept secret was finally revealed at the end of the season, Jose Mourinho returned to Chelsea to replace Rafa Benitez at Chelsea. They say never go back but Jose isn't one to do things by the book, or take orders from any body else. Chelsea under Rafa finished 3^rd last season which was mission accomplished from him, Champions League qualification was a must for Chelsea if they wanted to get ‘the special one’ back. They did and he’s back. For how long? Who knows but one thing we do know is that the Premier League has just got a whole lot more interesting now he is back. Transfers in, they have signed Andre Schurrle form Dortmund and Mario van Ginkel from Vitesse so far and with rumours of the signing of a big named striker a(Wayne Rooney?) on the way, Chelsea will be seriously strong contenders this season.

Manchester City is another top club who replaced their manager at the end of last season. Mancini finished 2^nd last season which is obviously rubbish and I’m not surprised he was sacked. I am of course joking, mancini stabilised City, won them the league title, a FA Cup and the worst league position they finished was 2^nd! But out with the old and in with the new, enter former Malaga Manager,  Manuel Pellegrini. The Chilean has come in to try and better Mancini’s record and good luck to him with that. Out has gone Carlos Tevez along with Kolo Toure and in has come Negrado, Jovetic, Jesus Nevas from Savilla and Fernandinho from Shakhtar. City needed a goal scorer and they have tbrought in two. They will be there or there abouts if the new front men click,  but can then overhal the other two?

Arsene Wenger sees this season as his chance to finally challenge for the title with Arsenal with the shift around in coaches with the other top clubs. They are being linked with a host of top players and if Wenger can pull off these signings they will be in with a great shout come the end of the season. Yes so far they have only signed the usual young French wizzkid that they usually sign but they seem to be making the right noises this season. They missed out on Higuain but are in pursuit of Luis Suarez, they signing alone could see Arsenal get closer to the front three in the betting.

Tottenham were so unlucky to finish one point outside the Champions League places last season, they and AVB were very impressive mainly down to the outstanding Gareth Bale of course. If Spurs can hold on to Bale and get new man Soldado firing Spurs can have another fantastic season. Spurs have a great young squad full of talent and the addition of Paulinho who was very impressive for Brazil during the Confederations Cup will only better them IMO.

So, who do I think will win the Premier League this year? Well I can’t see past Chelsea this year, the ‘special one’ should slot straight back in to his former role and hit the ground running, if he can find his new ‘Drogba’ then it should all be in the bag for Chelsea and this talented squad.

Watford vs Nottm Forest Betting Tips and Predictions By Jack Critchley

The top two in the Championship meet on Sunday afternoon at Vicarage Road on Sunday and it looks set to be an absolute scorcher so here are our best free tips for the match.

Forest are yet to concede in the league this season, winning two of their matches by a single goal and thumping promotion rivals Bolton last week by 3 goals to nil.

Billy Davies has bought the feel good factor back and he has notably tightened up their defence which was notorious for leaking goals since the departure of Wes Morgan.

Jack Hobbs has been acquired on loan and Kelvin Wilson has returned from Celtic and Jamie Mackie will add an often underappreciated work ethic to their attack.

Watford meanwhile have carried on where they left off last season, scoring hatfuls of goals whilst also being a touch unpredictable. They beat Birmingham 1-0 on the opening day of the season, followed by a thumping of Bournemouth 6-1, but then found themselves 2-0 down to Reading before eventually finishing 3-3 in a topsy-turvy affair.

There is no doubt that both sides have a talented squad of players at their disposal and for many neutrals this should be game of the weekend in the Championship.

I’m wary of backing both teams to score as Forest haven’t conceded this campaign, but I would back Over 2.5 goals at 4/5. There have been over 2.5 goals in 12 of Watford’s last 13 home games and I can see this record continuing.

I am going to take a chance on a correct score, I can’t separate the two teams and believe it could be the second draw of the season for the home side and the first time Forest will drop points. 2-2 correct score at 12/1 looks appealing.

Andy Reid scored last week and he always appears to be handy from set pieces. He is one of the away sides most creative outlets and 7/1 for anytime goalscorer looks too good to turn down. I think at least two of the goals could arrive courtesy of set pieces and with Troy Deeney too short in the market, I would take the Forest midfielder to find his way onto the scoresheet for the second week in a row.

Tottenham vs Swansea Prediction Betting Tips and Match Preview By Andrew Clark

Tottenham play Swansea in the Premier League on Sunday with both sides coming in on the back of convincing Europa League victories on Thursday.

Spurs are planning life after Gareth Bale and got off to a winning start last weekend when they beat Crystal Palace 1-0 thanks to new man Roberto Soldado and he already looks to be fitting right into the Tottenham side. He added two more goals in the Europa League on Thursday and not many people would back against him scoring again here.

Swansea bounced back from defeat against Manchester United last weekend with a 5-1 win in the Europa League on Thursday and if those results are anything to go by we could be in for a thriller at White Hart Lane here. Michu was the star man with a goal and two assists on Thursday but this is a much tougher test for the Welsh side. Taking into account the back end of his Valencia days Roberto Soldado has now scored 11 goals in his last nine league matches and Betfred go 7/2 he scores the first goal against Swansea. Keeping to the goalscoring theme Jan Vertonghen scored in both meetings between these sides last season and 13/2 to score here.

In Swansea’s last four Premier League matches in London they have lost and failed to score on three occasions and Tottenham are 19/10 to win to nil, a bet worth taking.
