The Nuts - Soccer Plays

[Les_Nuts]

I live in England and have been betting on the Premier League and others for quite a few years. I have decided to start posting my plays. I bet 1-5 units based on confidence and represent these with stars, 4* and 5* plays are less frequent. I use decimal odds because I based in the UK and don't deal with US odds but can understand them, if you would like me to add US odds next to them then just ask and I can do that.
I am kicking it off with two 4* plays, although there will not be 4/5*s every day, I am just all over these two plays

Saturday's plays:

4* - Blackburn vs QPR - Over 2.5 goals - 1.91
Really like this play and I suggest you get on now before the price drops tomorrow. Blackburn score a lot of goals and concede even more. QPR have added serious firepower over January with Zamora and Cisse, although the latter will be suspended. I can see this being a very high scoring game with QPR edging it. Both teams to score at 1.7 is good option but worse odds

4* - Man Utd to beat Liverpool - 1.95
Price on Man Utd has risen from around 1.83 to 1.95 over the last 24 hours and I am surprised. This is great value on a Man Utd win as they have been playing better recently even though results suggest otherwise and they have a great record vs Liverpool at Old Trafford in recent years. I also have a side bet of 0.5* on Javier Hernandez first goal at decimal odds of 6 but this is just for fun as Ladbrokes are refunding first goalscorer bets if Rooney scores anytime.

2* - Inter Milan to win to nil - 2.00
Inter face a poor Novara side on Sunday. Although they have dropped points in their last few matches, they will see this as an opportunity to inflict some pain on the whipping boys of Serie A. Novara are a poor side and will struggle. Although Inter have conceded a few recently they should be able to shut down a side that has only scored 6 on the road all season. I am taking this over a handicap because of greater odds

GL to everyone

May post more plays tomorrow morning (UK time)

4* - Blackburn vs QPR - Over 2.5 goals - 1.91

I had it in my list, but I don't like to bet when there's logic against my feelings, and I've decided that this game is 'no play' for me. I can think of two reasons. First one is that QPR have a lot of troubles scoring at least a goal on the road. They have like 3 goals in 5 games. Of course I don't believe that they won't be able to score, but. The secong reason is the performance by Blackburn against Arsenal. There's a lot of changes after such games, and not only in the lineup, but also in a team's psychology. Blackburn is able to defend well against QPR, that's where I'm going. But most likely you'll cash this one though. GL

I like both of your $4* plays!

blackburn v qpr match: this is a relegation dogfight and in this league those matches are pretty exciting (usually). QPR bought two guys who can put the ball in the net in cisse and zamora so I think they will be able to convert on some chances the rest of this season. If anything they also allow goals fairly easily so liking the over.

liverpool v manu: always a tight game, hernandez is very dangerous when he plays in these big matches, always some how nicks a key goal.

QPR are a different team now, they have spent big in January, new manager etc. If it wasn't for an early red card in their last game they would have scored more. Blackburn can't defend to save their lives and have conceded the most goals in the league by some distance, to be honest they are a bit of a joke under Steve Kean.
Anyway, GL with your bets this weekend

Both 4*s in already.

Man Utd win 2-1

Blackburn 3-0 QPR at Half Time

Hope some followed, now onto the Inter game!

I will have more plays for Sunday's games in the major European leagues.

Inter to win to nil, tomorrow at 2pm (UK time) is currently a 2* play

[Les_Nuts]

Sunday's Plays:

3* - Ivory Coast - 1.60
Ivory Coast should have no problem beating this Zambia side, they have looked great throughout the tournament and should claim the trophy here

2* - Ivory Coast to win to nil - 2.1
This side rarely concede and their defense has done a great job all tournament, looked for them to shutout and Zambia and bag a couple of goals aswell

2* - Inter Milan to win to nil - 2.00
Inter face a poor Novara side on Sunday. Although they have dropped points in their last few matches, they will see this as an opportunity to inflict some pain on the whipping boys of Serie A. Novara are a poor side and will struggle. Although Inter have conceded a few recently they should be able to shut down a side that has only scored 6 on the road all season. I am taking this over a handicap because of greater odds

2* - Inter Milan -1.5 - 1.80
Same write up as above, they should get at least 3 goals today


Ivory Coast -1.5 also warrants consideration but left it out.

May be more plays tomorrow
