Beat the Bookies: Week 35

By: Rob Sedgwick
Date: 04/04/2013

EVERY bet lost last week so the Bookies are managing to claw back some of their money they have lost this season, but they'll never get it all back before the season ends even if every tip loses .

Home > 2012-2013 Season > Beat the Bookies > Week 35

Grimsby are strong favourites to beat Southport at home on Saturday. The best price you'll get is about 1.66. Very few people make money by betting on odds on favourites. With Town's recent record at BP (1 draw and 2 losses in the last three games) this isn't a stand out bet!

Championship

  • Burnley v Bristol City - away win (4.33, Sky Bet). Burnley have reached 51 points so are safe. They have not won for 6 games either which hardly suggests they are heading up the table! Bristol City are not doing great either but had some hard games recently, and before that were having a traditional late season surge for a team at the bottom. Expect the City revival to begin again.

    League One

  • Yeovil v Shrewsbury - away win (4.8, Stan James). Yeovil have just 1 win in 6 to their names, Shrewsbury are unbeaten in the last 4 games, 3 of which were away, including an impressive win at MK Dons.

    League Two

  • Gillingham v Torquay - away win (5.75, Bet Victor). Torquay have shown a massive improvement in recent weeks, and they desperately need the points. Gillingham have lost six times at home this season, quite a few times to smaller clubs,

    Blue Square Premier League

  • Kidderminster v Lincoln City - away win (7.5, Bet Victor). Lincoln are right up three in the recent form table with three wins and a draw in the last 4 games. Kiddie are doing well too but such is the form of the Imps that will be beaten if they have an off day..
