Match Day 30 December 2007

Last bets of the year. My chance to further improve my December stats, which are acceptable.

This weekend only matches in the Premier League and the Eredivisie will be played.

Premier League

Chelsea(2) - Fulham FC(12) (Lost)
Second home game in 4 days at home for Chelsea. Chelsea lost 4 points at home in the last 3 games a draw against Arsenal and one against Reading (a surprise to me). Fulham on the other side wasn't capable of winning one of their last 6 away games. Chelsea cannot afford themselves to loose points again at home in their chase of Manchester United. Morinho will motivate his troops so that they will end the year with a victory.
Sheffield United(17) - Arsenal(3) (Lost)
Sheffield United is one of the strange team is you compare the points which they collected at home with the points collected away, they collected as many points away from home as at home namely 10. Arsenal has a strange season concerning the away games, they only won 5 out of 10 and lost 4. Not good enough for a team which claims to fight for the title. However the last 2 away games were won and they should be capable of extending this streak with one.

Eredivisie
In Holland the match day 20 is spread over 3 days, starting today and ending on sunday.
Excelsior(14) - Feyenoord(5) (Won)
Again a derby for Feyenoord. Feyenoord is in form, proving this is the 1-1 draw against PSV. Excelsior lost their last 5 games and I'm afraid for them that they can another one after today. No doubt Feyenoord will win this one.
NEC(11) - Ajax(2) (Lost)
After the loss of AZ Ajax is back in second position. NEC at home is a though opponent to face, ask Feyenoord who lost there 4-1 this season. Also the last away game from Ajax was a disaster (4-2 loss at Vitesse) but after the convincing win against Roda at home they are back on track and determined to close the year on the second place.
AZ(3) - Roda JC(12) (Over @ 1.50) (Won)
For the first time this year AZ was not capable in scoring. the result was a 3-0 loss at Twente.
7 of the 9 home games AZ played this year was Over 2.5. The game against Roda has a history with lot of goals. In the last 9 encouters between these teams with AZ playing at home 29 times was scored and 5 games of them were Over. AZ wants the end this year with a win and preferably a big one, so I bet on Over.

Okay now the 5 bets are selected. I will make 2 single bets and 1 combo. Also I will add a new line to my stats to include my single bets.
Single 1 -> 2€ at AZ Over -> Won pay-out 3€ (Profit 1)
Single 2 -> 2€ at Feyenoord -> Won Pay-out 2.86€ (Profit 0.86€)
Combo 1 -> 2€ at Ajax, Chelsea and Arsenal -> Possible pay-out 5.76€ -> Lost (Lost 2€)

Total at stake: 6€
Possible Pay-out: 11.62€
Actual Pay-out: 5.86€ -> Actual loss/profit 0.14€

Good Luck,
European Sports Betting
