27-23-7 (+4.68)
Today quite a few games I like, but trying to be selective here, but....still a few more plays than usual for a Wednesday. Brief writeups too
Celtic -118 @ Aberdeen (1.77 to make 1.50)
Everton/Newcastle o2.75 (-125) 2.50 to make 2.00
Napoli +112 (1.00 to make 1.12)
PSG -1.5 (-165) 1.65 to make 1.00
Celtic been on a run of thumping teams of late until their recent cup loss, however in that game they were also down a man and the ensuing pk after just 13 minutes. Now they play 2nd place Aberdeen and may be able to get the league done and dusted with a win today. Would have went the full two units here except for the road game aspect, I was expecting to have to lay closer to -130/-140 here so spidey senses started tingling. Still think we get some nice value and I'll take a stab at it.
The Everton/Newcastle game I just have pegged for goals. I couldn't decide whether to go for o3 at +odds or lay heavier wood at o2.5 tbh, so I took the middle route. Frankly I'll be disappointed to not win the full bet with just 3 goals, but I thought that Leon game last night would go sailing over too. Everton been a sieve here at home, and Newcastle has bolstered their attack enough I see them getting at least one goal. Everton's attack has been stout all year long, 4th best in the premier league. Everton average 2 gpg at home this year, but also ALLOW just shy of 2gpg at home (worst in the prem). I think we just see plenty of chances here on both ends.
Napoli been in terrific form all year long and just have so many weapons. I don't shy away from road teams, in particular when I'm getting +odds. LAzio certainly better at home, but Napoli no mugs on the road either. Napoli have title aspirations here and against a mid-table team no reason they they can't do it.
And I've been on PSG week after week after week, and no reason for me to back down today. Simple as that. Yes heavy wood on the handicap, but game at home, this one should be 2-0 by ht.
