Beat the Bookies: Week 32

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 17/03/2012 (Last updated: 06/04/2012)

ALFRETON's win over.Lincoln ensured Beat the Bookies got away with a small loss last week after none of the other tips came in. But for two late goals by Macclesfield to get a draw against Crawley it would have been a profitable weekend.

Home > 2011-2012 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 32

Championship Tip

Birmingham v Middlesbrough - away win (4.33, Bet365). Brum seem to have been struggling of late at 10/3 for an away win looks a very generous price.

League One Tip

Hartlepool v Stevenage - home win (2.88, Sky Bet). Stevenage seem to suffering from Too Many Games syndrome. The last thing they want is a trip to Hartlepool. Isn't it?.

League Two Tip

Hereford v Southend - home win (3.6, SMarkets). This time of the year in League 2 the teams at the bottom start like playing like the teams at the top and vice versa. Let's hope that this is one of those occasions.

Blue Square Premier Tip

Southport v Stockport - away win (5.0, Corals). Stockport have showed they can beat the better teams and could do well in this local derby. 4-1 is a decent price from Corals.

Bath City v Lincoln City - home win (2.62, William Hill). Lincoln seem to be in freefall at the moment. They could even lose at lowly Bath!

FA Cup

Liverpool v Stoke - away win (8.99, Pinnacle). Liverpool are sometimes good and sometimes bad. At the moments it's bad and Stoke tend to beat bad sides. Grab this price while you can.

Previous Fixed Odds Bets (1 or 2 bets, around £10 per week each of Rob's own money)
