There is only the one midweek game featuring Everton at home to Birmingham tonight but I can’t back the inconsistent Toffee’s as short as 1.55 to win. They have been a real Jekyll and Hyde team this season and with 3 key players in Cahill, Fellaini and Neville out, its anyone’s guess as to which side will turn out.
As there are no weekend games due to the FA Cup it’s also a chance to have a look at the Ante-post market and see where we are up to.
Our Ante-Post Portfolio
Currently we have 9 different ante-post bets advised through the season and are showing a 0.38 pt profit from them so far (a full list copied at foot of email). A number of these are very borderline, especially with so many teams so closely bunched up in the table but we do look on course to make a profit. If either Stoke can finish in the top ten or Wigan finish above Wolves, then this profit will increase significantly.
I do want to add one bet to this market though and am advising a 1pt bet on West Brom at 15/8 with Skybet to be relegated. Although Roy Hodgson has done well since taking over I am far from convinced they have enough quality to stay up. They also have some very tough fixtures coming up in their remaining nine games with home matches against Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea & Everton and trips to Sunderland and Spurs to navigate.
