US MLS - All Eyes on New York's Derby!

22/8/2018

Hello folks. Game is on! It's New York City vs New York Red Bulls and just for 90 minutes a city can be divided in two.
Both teams are missing a handful of players tonight specially in defence lines and here is the question. Will these absences drive the managers to use defensive tactics today or we will watch an awesome open game?
I will take a small risk and count on that teams will play open football. The Over 3.5 goals market offers a ''fairly'' good value but certainly the scores 3-1 and 2-2 are offered by Betfair.com at prices 19.00 and 14.00 pre game.

Best of Luck!

Hello folks! The Major League Soccer resumes tonight and the bookmakers suggest ''easy home wins'' as you can see at the image below. I couldn't disagree more. There are teams which are not currently in a good form, or the visitors are in better shape. Therefore I can't see how all these home wins will land.

Screenshot taken from OddsPortal.com

Seattle Sounders - Los Angeles Galaxy. The hosts are over the bad start of the season
and if they win this game, then certainly can knock the Play Offs' door. LA once again
disappointed their fans with the latest draw against Colorado as we had correctly
predicted. Seattle is in much better shape than LA but am not sure if that's going to be such an ''easy win'' as the bookmakers predict. The visitors perform much better in away games and this is fact. The Over 3.5 goals market offers great value and I like the scores 3-1 & 2-2 for inplay trading on Betfair Exchange. The simply offer the best prices!

Philadelphia Union - New York City. Game is on! Tough wins for both teams last week but this game is tougher for..... the hosts. NYC is far a better side and in an ideal soccer world they could escape with 1 or 3 points tonight. Over 3.5 goals is my main tip and scores 2-3 & 2-3 wouldn't harm for in play cashout.

Vancouver Whitecaps - New York Red Bulls. I got mixed feelings for this game. The visitors though are far better team and defend better when they' re playing away. If you really want to bet on this game then my suggestion is 2-3 goals full time and 0-2 anytime score.

Montreal Impact - Chicago Fire. I did not expect to see Chicago doing so bad this season. This is a crucial game for them but also.... an opportunity to snitch 3 points in this game because Montreal's recent performances have not convinced me. Not much value in Over 2.5 goals (if you don't mind) and I go for scores 2-1 & 1-2 for inplay trading on Betfair Exchange.

FC Dallas - Minnesota. Lets put it this way. If San Jose did it against Dallas then why Minnesota not? They played beautifully against LA and unfairly (in my view) did not win the game. Dallas in the other hand comes from 2 straight wins and the team clearly is not in a good shape. I expect a very open game from both teams and I like the value of Over 3.5 and 4.5 goals. SI wouldn't say no to scores 3-2 & 2-3 for inplay trading/cashout.

Sporting Kansas City - Portland Timbers. Another game which puzzles me a lot. The draw factor is high on this game although the odds favour the hosts. Although, the question is, would we see many goals? I am not sure and my estimate is 2-3 goals. Perhaps I got this wrong but the scores 2-0 and 1-1 offer great value if you really have to bet on it.

Houston Dynamo - Real Salt Lake. The list of unavailable players for tonight's game is quite long, specially for the RSL's team. Anything could happen in this game and I don't think Houston has a clear advantage. Against all odds, Under 2.5 goals is my tip if you want to bet on it.

San Jose Earthquakes - Toronto FC. If Toronto could win the next away game, I wouldn't imagine a more 'convenient' opponent. San Jose's performance has son many ups and downs since the beginning of the season and very fairly they are keeping the top spot of ''upside down'' leader board. Toronto has done beautifully lately, although unlucky against NYC last week. Both teams score and concede many goals recently and I like the value of Over 3.5 goals. Easily or not, I think Toronto will win the game with score 1-3 or 2-3.

Best of Luck!

14/08/18 La Galaxy vs Colorado Rapids Game Analysis

Good Evening all. The mid week MLS action takes place in Los Angeles tonight and I look forward to watching this game. Before I start analysing it though, I would like to thank you for your nice personal messages you sent for our latest winnings.

The bookmakers predict ''easy win'' for the hosts again but hold on, I heard that last week against Minnesota as well. Let's check the facts. It's been a struggle for LA's team lately, mainly because they simply can't defend. In fact, their defence reminds me a children's playground where everyone's having fun.

Colorado Rapids on the other hand have been improved a lot recently and not long ago they won LA at home with a fair score 2-1. I think they travel stress free to Los Angeles tonight and the frustration clearly lies in the hosts' ''terrain''. Based on the current form and other factors I took into account, I think Draw has very good chances tonight unless the Zlatan's Goals show resumes.

I would be very surprised if we don't see at least 4 goals in this game but if you are a ''value hunter'', the Draw and scores 3-2 & 3-3 (single bets) for in-play cash-out sounds good to me. The prices are matching as high as 5.50, 26.00 and 85.00 at the moment on Betfair's Exhange.

Best of Luck!

Major League Soccer resumes tonight!

Good evening from UK folks! If you don't have to wake early tomorrow morning, then is really worth it to stay up all night for this soccer ''bonanza''.
A quick flashback to what happened so far during the last 2 days. It was a considerably low scoring weekend but hey, they can't keep ''raining goals'' all the time. Furthermore, we had just 2 home wins, 2 HUGE draws and 4 (hear,hear) away wins. Thumps Up for
Minnesota, Kansas, Vancouver, Philadelphia and Montreal because at least according to the bookmakers, these were the ''underdogs''. (Hakim, I hope by the way to like the above photo).

Toronto FC - New York City. Game is on! Both teams want the three point of win for different reasons but the draw factor is high in my view. I expect an open game from both teams and I like the value of Over 3.5 and 4.5 goals. Feeling adventurous? A small punt wouldn't harm, I have faith in scores 4-4 and 4-3 for inplay cashout trading.

DC United - Orlando City. The bookmakers clearly favourite the hosts in this game but I disagree. I can't ignore the Orlando's last 3-4 games and very good performances against respectable opponents. If there's some justice in this soccer world, it should thunder goals in this game today. Once again, the Over 3.5 and 4.5 goals sounds good to me and I wouldn't say know to score 3-2 & 4-4 for inplay trading.

Seattle v Dallas. Tough game for both teams which are recently in very good form. I expect a close game and I would go for scores 2-1 and 2-2 for inplay trading. I think Seattle is too good at home to lose this game.

Best of Luck!

English Premier League 2018 - 1st Fixture

Hello folks! Manchester United started started with a win this season and set with the right foot for sure but I am wondering if all ''favourites'' will have the same ''fate'' in the upcoming games on Saturday.
What am I talking about? Let's put it this way, history tells us that the 1st fixture of the English Premier league is an ''enigma'' most of the times, and very rarely all the favourites win. In fact, the history has recorded unspeakable surprises so.. feel free to refresh your memory.
Clearly, the value is in Laying the favourites (betting against) or at least try to avoid the ''horrors''.
Can Newcastle take advantage of Spurs' long list of unavailable players for this game?
I think they can snatch a point or... three. Fulham is favourited by the bookmakers but I can't see Crystal Palace losing this opening game. Huddersfield..... or.... Chelsea? I like the Draw for in play trading and.. let the best team win! So much faith in Wolves and the underdog is Everton? Not sure about it.

Best of Luck!
