Your 5 Best Bets For Today

Escapini 26 March 2011, 13:05 2 minutes read

Very unusual to see football prices move. Even rarer to note that an individual player caused that movement. But Gareth Bale is one such a player and the price on the Welsh went out the day it was confirmed he was unable to play.

Historically this game is a low scoring affair. But I’d be looking for some value with Rooney, Carroll and Bent all jostling for a game.  Bent to score first from the 46th minute onwards is 22/1 and allows for him being used as an impact sub.

Craig Bellamy has been playing Championship football but that won’t really count for much in my opinion and the Nutter With The Putter Anytime Goalscorer in a 1-2  win for England is 25/1.

Wales’ real problem is lack of big names whereas the England squad is packed with household names. That said, it’s difficult to remember the last time England didn’t either frustrate or disappoint with a disjointed performance and I’d be reluctant to rule out a 1-1 draw @7/1.

The Republic Of Ireland are also in action with Arriva hosting Macedonia. The Irish are strong favourites and it’s difficult to see them losing on their swanky new pitch. 2-1 is 15/2.

Kevin Doyle is in fine form so his anytime goalscorer price is miserable, but if you have him scoring anytime in a that 2-1 win it’s a much more inviting 14/1.

Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."
