British Forum BETTING thread

Any thoughts on Munroe vs Maludrottu this weekend?

I might go big on Munroe on points..... with a small bet on the Italian on points as insurance - neither of these two look like getting stopped IMO.

 

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Handicap 0

Odd: 2.05


Thats a awesome odd.

Portugal had a real tough time vs. Bosnia last time out. Bosnia were minimal to drawing that game to be honest!

What im saying here is, Bosnia now have the Home Advantage, their defense looked pretty decent at times and have kept the Porkies out in pretty good situations.

The Bosnian attack was a bit slippy, but they created some good chances, probably just as much as the Porkies did.

What I think:

Portugal will be playing for a draw. Bosnia have home defence.

Even if Portugal scores first, i still think Bosnia will score anyways to make it 1-1, and then the Porkies would just defend thier way to a WC spot.

I like this bet cause if Bosnia wins, which could be a possibility without the Ronaldo-less Porkies.

The Porkies arent used to the Bosnian style of play cause they never played them sides last week. Who knows how they will fare against the Bosnian's in Bosnia.

Bosnia is a tight under dog and its worth a stab. If anything I dont think the Porkies will win but they could very well draw and a possibility of them losing is pretty decent.

And if you get a draw, you get your money back.

 

lol

 

Don't quite understand this Andy. Are you saying you'll be backing the draw?

You seem to say you like a punt on them winning ("Bosnia is a tight under dog and its worth a stab"), that they may draw ("they could very well draw") but there's a good chance they'll lose ("and a possibility of them losing is pretty decent") ! :?

Any other potential draws mid week?

 

The only chance Bosnia loses i think if they dont finish away thier attacks liek they did in Portugal.

They are home now...

but its worth a stab like i said...

A Draw and you get a push, a Bosnia win and you win!

 

:thumbsup

 

I know it was a friendly but the fact Bosnia got spanked 5-0 at home in their last friendly against Spain makes me doubt them a bit.

They might be more open at home and leave spaces at the back, or maybe their illustrous attack might actually live up to their billing for the first time in a while.

Toss of a coin this game.

 

Has anyone tried the exchange games on Betfair......

I've been playing Hold'em on there for the past half hour - £15 up (from £22 up) - worth a dabble if you know how to play.

 

I am seriously thinking about hammering Mitchell to beat Prescott. 10/11 at Sportingbet. Any views?

 

Get your money on Prescott - I am guessing his odds will come in when it gets closer to the fight which will result in Mitchell's odds going out - then stick some money on Mitchell then its a win-win situation in a 50-50 fight :thumbsup

Obviously it is down to who you think will get the money placed on them, but I am pretty sure Prescott will get the big build up, 'destroyed current world champ Khan' etc. and Mitchell's chances will be downplayed - which will result in you getting better odds on him IMO - its just how you interperete how it will go. If you are confident on one fighter, which seems like Mitchell, I would wait a bit :good
