I never know which thread to use for general football bets so thought I’d just start a thread to use for whatever bets are tickling your fancy. Whether it’s boosts, tips or the Skybet shot on target boosts we all throw our money away on

First up for me is Brighton Spurs double tonight @ 5/2 enhanced from 6/4 (max bet £20) with Paddy Power. Seems a good offer to me although I know some of you won’t fancy betting on us!

I ritually do Harry Kane to score a header and from outside the area, usually with Skybet but Betvictor, when they offer the bet, are very often offering better prices, which you can also put into a double, something Skybet won't let you do.

Tonight i'll be on that and Zlatan to do likewise and if Bale starts i'll be on that too.

Tonight, Kane to score a header AND from outside the area is 148/1, Bale is 365/1 and Zlatan is 242/1

I've heard you mention this a couple of times and until now I always thought it had to be a header from outside the area. :ROFLMAO:

After reading the above I presume it can be 2 separate goals?

With Skybet you can bet on Harry Kane (or most players in a televised game actually) to score a header which is one bet. To score from outside the area is another, separate bet.

On Betvictor you can do both of those bets in a double.

Lazio looking a good price today. Although they haven’t started well in Serie A they got a good 3-1 win vs Dortmund in the first CL match so think they could be good value against Club Brugge.

5/2 for win with Sky but I’ve taken BTTS and win at 5/1 in a treble with BTTS in Utd-Leipzig and Bournemouth-Bristol City. £5 returns £80

Skybet shot on target boost

Sterling to have a SOT vs Sheff Utd. Evens from 1/4

:D

They've cleaned up on their last two (Aguero and Calvert-Lewin) so you'd think that the law of averages would be kind with this bet.

I swore blind i'd never do it again but here I am, tempted once more :D

Vardy one too. I’ve been stung on all but I just can’t not do them, they seem so easy to double your money

Have a random accumulator most weekends. Only ever a small stake as 1) I’m too tight to risk big money on a multi team bet and 2) I don’t do it to make money but to just have a bit of fun.

Try to limit myself to 5, 6 or 7 teams but for some reason this week just looks like a nice week for all the big teams (even if it’s sandwiched between two CL matches) so gone for a 15 team acca :wideyed:

£2.50 stake will see a £1,718 return... wish me luck
  • City vs Sheff Utd ✅
  • Chelsea vs Burnley ✅
  • Liverpool v West Ham ✅
  • Spurs v Brighton
  • Madrid v Huesca ✅
  • Athleti v Osasuna✅
  • Barca v Alaves
  • Inter v Parma❌
  • Juve v Spezia
  • Napoli v Sassuolo
  • Roma v Fiorentina
  • Dortmund v Arminia Bielefeld ✅
  • Bayern v Cologne ✅
  • Leipzig v B M’Gladbach❌
  • PSG v Nantes

Think Napoli, Roma & PSG are my biggest risks (fingers crossed)
