Odds from bet 365

[cakes]

will have a lay on reading, fancy a draw in that game if not a preston win

[keemanan]

Dunno cakes , they failed to beat Stoke away last time and Reading will be more than happy to have a home game after that shock last weekend , I'd never back against them at home this season

[keemanan]

Coventry and Cardiff (again) I rekon for me , no away games catch the eye . Much more to come

[cakes]

Cardiff to beat watford is a brave yin. i hope you lose cos il be on watford with leeds and sheff utd

[Keith]

Sheff W apparantly only have 11 players available at the mo.

Saints too short for me though

[A.M.P]

Was just about to have the 2.1 on Betfair about Coventry.

They haven't lost at home since november, some 10 matches ago.

Burnley have trouble scoring goals and have 4 defeats and 2 draws from their last 6 away.

just checked Coventry's site and top-scorer McSheffrey and centre-back Williams are suspended for Saturday....

[Super Angel]

Sheffield Utd to bt QPR @ 1.50

[keemanan]

McSheffreys a huge loss for Coventry AFU , but I still think they could take this.
God knows why I said Cardiff I must have thought they were at home.

So very little to get excited about this weekend , Reading are a bit short there . Maybe Leeds to beat Luton , they dont travel well , 1 draw 1 win in their last 11 on the road.
Leeds won their last 5 at home conceding just 1 goal.Luton of course are on a high after the Reading coupon buster last week but I think Leeds will come out fighting after a kick up the arse following last saturdays meek draw with Leicester.

Leeds 8/11 bet365 (7/10)

[Bigkegman]

This is the first week that honestly I cannot see any value in this league - don't know if value is the correct word or not but I honestly can see ALL games going anyway so NO bet - i studyied for longer than I usually do after I initially scored off all games as no bets.

Is it just me or is this weeks fixtures a fecking nightmare ?

[keemanan]

you're not wrong kegman , looks very drawey all over the place , I'm warming to Watford.
Already backed Leeds and Coventry (although McSheffry will have me worried all afternoon), I think Reading will win but I'd want bigger to put a smile on my face if they win.

[trainbairn]

Preston Away at Reading is a Virgin Trains System bet for me.

[GETT1NLOTS]

First thoughts

Crewe v Brighton

I might lay Crewe here as Brighton have a good record of getting a point away from home. I've yet to check the odds for the lay here on the exchanges but I'm tempted.


Leeds v Luton

Leeds are a good outfit and on a reasonable run. Luton are a weak side away and 1.72 is fast approaching value status.


Reading v Preston

Reading are a great side this year but two factors interest me on the home lay here. 1) Reading have lost their unbeaten record and I can't see them having the same belief or desperation to hold on as before it ended. 2) Preston are on a fabulous run and a draw away to Reading (who will respect their opponents run having been a form side themselves) could see this sliding itself to a draw.

Like I say - first thoughts. More from me tomorrow.

[Keith]

I am only thinking out loud and perhaps fishing for a bit of feedback but I can't help thinking that the following are overpriced and are maybe worth a small interest;

Norwich 4.40

Luton 5.40

Preston 5.50

Hull 2.90

Millwall 4.33.

Norwich are the most likely out of the five

[keemanan]

I agree that Norwich are the most likely WAS , none of the other's really , for Preston to win would really take a huge effort and to be honest I dont think they will be after the 3 points primarily. Luton could be on a high after last week but it's a big ask to beat Leeds and they too would be smiling with a point. Millwall is a coin toss , but it is a good old price and I've said before only the top 3 teams in the division have scored more than once against them.
Palace are not firing at the mo that's for sure , I think AJ has been out but I'm not certain , anyway Norwich are playing well , lots of pace with Huckerby and now Earnshaw , thats the great advantage at this level , they'll be up for this and were apparently even showboating last week at home.
Aye I may join you with Norwich , good shout
