Beat the Bookies: Week 6

By: Rob Sedgwick

ONLY one winner last week in a pretty poor showing all in all from our tips. Still at least Crewe beat Barnet to avoid a whitewash!

Home > 2011-2012 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 6

Premier League Tip

Wolves v QPR - home win (2.0, Bet365). Wolves look more likely than not to win this game, yet the odds are even, so it has to be good value!

Championship Tip

Hull v Portsmouth - home win (2.3, Victor Chandler). Hull are looking to make in three wins on the spin against an our of form Pompey side.

League One Tip

Sheffield Utd v Colchester - home win (1.85, Victor Chandler). United lost 3-0 last week to Huddersfield but they are still second and Colchester not exactly setting the division alight.

League Two Tip

Bristol Rovers v Aldershot - away win (3.4, Ladbrokes). Alfreton are flying at the moment and they should pick up three points against a Rovers side with just 1 win in 6.

Blue Square Premier Tip

Kidderminster v Alfreton - away win (5.75, Stan James). Alfreton have won at York and drawn at Darlington. 5.75 for a win at Kidderminster is just daft,
