Beat the Bookies: Week 15

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 16/11/2011

ALL three FA Cup tips last week were draws when we wanted away wins. Some of them were very close - unfortunately not close enough! It means every Beat the Bookies tip has lost over the last two weeks. Third time lucky!

Home > 2011-2012 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 15

Premier League Tip

Tottenham v Aston Villa - away win (7.17 Pinnacle). Tottenham's recent form means they deserve to be favourites, but over 6/1 for a Villa win is just too tempting!

Championship Tip

Millwall v Bristol City- away win (5.25, Pinnacle). Bristol City, despite their lowly league position are no mugs, and have had some decent results recently. This looks a possible upset in a televised match.

League Two Tip

Torquay v Plymouth - away win (6.0, Stan James). Plymouth seem to come so close to winning every week, this time hopefully they'll gone one closer in this local derby.
