Sunderland vs Portsmouth Prediction I am betting Portsmouth 1.25 in a game that will be played in heavy rain, Portsmouth are still without a number of players for this match with defender Dan Ballard being ruled out for a 3rd straight game while impressive youngster Chris Rigg is also out. I think Portsmouth are generally underestimated after promotion last season, they are a little too open defensively, but they are so good going forward and getting such a large handicap is always worth chanc...

Liverpool vs Manchester United Prediction I am betting Liverpool here -1.25 and over 3.25 goals scored, they are the best team in the league and they face a Manchester United team who easily could have been beaten by 4 or 5 against Newcastle United last Monday night at home. Liverpool's odds have drifted because of the bad snow in the Merseyside area but the pitch will be cleared and any concerns of the game not going ahead will be due to concerns for the supporters attending the game today. On...

St Johnstone vs Dundee Prediction I am betting St Johnstone 0 and over 2.5 Goals scored and it is mainly down to Dundee missing so many defenders with Larkeche, McGhee, Koumentio, Portales and Shaughnessy and midfielder Frzaer is also out injured. St Johnstone will be without the suspended Jason Holt but welcome back their young striker Kirk, I think draw no bet is a good line and with St Johnstone needing 3 points badly as they are currently bottom of the league I think they are worth a bet he...

Dundee United vs Heart of Midlothian Prediction I am betting Hearts 0.25 when they face Dundee United both teams won on Thursday in the traditional New year's round of fixture they play in Scotland. Hearts were excellent in their match at home to Motherwell and really should have won by more than the 1 goal margin and prior to that they should have beaten Ross County before letting a 2 lead slip in injury time. Their opponents Dundee United had a tough match on Thursday evening in the Dundee d...

Hull City vs Leeds Utd Prediction I am betting Hull here 1, they were a little unfortunate to lose out to a last grasp Middlesbrough goal , their performances have improved since bringing in Ruben Selles from Reading, they look a more organised team and I believe even with the Tigers missing some players they can frustrate Leeds and 1 is a attractive line to bet the home underdog

Bristol City vs Derby County Prediction I am betting Derby 0.5 at odds against here, Derby were not as bad as the scoreline may suggest when they lost 4-2 away to Sheffield Wednesday and  I am happy to bet them when they travel to a Bristol City team who have been fortunate in some of their more recent games. Derby are a solid side and it may prove difficult for the home team to break them down today they were only beaten by a 79th minute goal when they hosted Leeds United last Sunday, betting...

Bournemouth vs Everton Prediction I am betting Everton 1 and under 2.75 goals, Everton are not set up to win, they have very little goals in them but they can defend and have recently gone and got draws away to Arsenal, Manchester City and drew at home to Chelsea all better sides than Bournemouth. The Cherries on the other hand have recently dropped points at home to West Ham and Crystal Palace so asking them to cover a -1 handicap to a side as defensively sound as Everton is a big ask and hap...

Manchester City vs West Ham Utd Prediction I am betting West Ham 1.75 when they travel to City, I simply can't have City at the moment, they were poor once again away to Lecester who for me are the worst team in the league and should have taken a point at best, they now host a West Ham team who were beaten in their latest match 5-0 however I think that scoreline was a little harsh on the Hammers as they hot the woodwork 3 times during the course of that match. The Hammers travel north without ...

Aston Villa vs Leicester City Prediction I am betting Villa -1.5 when they host Leicester City this afternoon, Matty Cash returns from suspension for Villa which is a boost while Ollie Watkins start up front again but Leicester are once again without first choice keeper Mads Hermansen who is out injured.  Leciester should never have lost in their latest match at home to Manchester City but that performance may say more about Manchester City than it does for Leicester as Leicester have not impre...

Dundee vs Dundee United Prediction I am betting over 2.5 goals scored here when Dundee host their near rivals United today in the Dundee derby and I can see this being a match full of goals, all 9 league games this season at Dens Park the home of Dundee have featured at least 3 goals in them and with Dundee United having a chance of going 3rd in the table I can see this being an open match with both teams attacking.
