Timeform 1-2-3: March 13th

Wolverhampton on Saturday plays host to two of the most competitive all-weather handicaps seen for a while, but consider it a sign of things to come with the likes of the Pertemps, the Coral Cup and the Grand Annual just around the corner. Following an indifferent week, the Free Form Service have had a crack at the two contests and hope to have unearthed a big-priced winner in the sprint. “Fanunalter strikes as the type who could have a good season..” The Lincoln Trial (3.25) at Dunstall Park has traditionally had little bearing on the Doncaster race and we fancy this trend to continue, with our selection Fanunalter not even holding an entry in the £125,000 handicap in a fortnight’s time

Elsewhere, Blackburn and Bolton are bereft of key players… “Shawcross has played 50 of Stoke’s 66 games since the start of last season and has probably been the Potters best player during this time.” Click Here to subscribe to Player PRO and have a free 14 day trial.

Premier League Betting: Saturday’s 3pm Kick-offs

FA Cup and International Football is behind us for the time being so “Mystical” Mike Norman is back with a preview of Saturday’s Premier League action. Best Bet: Back Villa HT/Villa FT @ 4.2 in Stoke v Aston Villa. Best Bet: Back Villa HT/Villa FT @ 4.2 in Stoke v Aston Villa Also: Back The Draw @ 3.4 in Birmingham v Everton; Back Bolton @ 2.24 to beat Wigan; Back Draw HT/Wolves FT @ 8.2 and Wolves HT/Wolves FT @ 6.4 in Burnley v Wolves; Back Any Unquoted Score @ 4.5 in Chelsea v West Ham Birmingham 3.2 v Everton 2.48 ; The Draw 3.4 It’s amazing to think that a win for Birmingham will take them just two points behind Liverpool – the side that have been favourites to finish fourth in the Premier League for most of the season. Brum have been brilliant under Alex McLeish , but so have Everton under David Moyes, and just because I don’t think either side deserve to lose I’m backing the draw today. It’s been nearly six months since Birmingham tasted defeat at St Andrews, and in that time they’ve conceded just five home goals so I’d have to favour a low-scoring game here. Under 2.5 Goals is available to back at 1.75 , whilst in the Correct Score market, the 0-0 and 1-1 scorelines can be backed at 10.0 and 7.2 respectively

The Bettorlogic Injuries And Suspensions Column

As big-name players sit out this weekend’s action through injury and suspension, Bettorlogic look at what tends to happen in their absence. “Mauro Zarate was red-carded last weekend in Lazio’s defeat at Sampdoria and his absence should significantly damage Lazio’s chances of easing their relegation worries against Bari.” Click here to subscribe to Player PRO and have a free 14 day trial.

Cheltenham Head-to-Heads: The Gold Cup

It’s the most talked about race of the jumps season but the market knows all about Kauto and Denman now – so is there an angle for you to exploit or is it just a case of backing the one you like most? Will Hayler and Graham Cunningham muse on the Festival’s likely climax “The market has had months in which to find the right price for the two most charismatic staying chasers of the modern era and anyone who says they are drastically over or under priced at 1.8 and 5.2 respectively is arguing against the combined logic of the entire bookmaking and betting exchange industry.” Will Hayler : I love Kauto Star . And I love Denman too. But which one of them is better

NBA Weekend Betting: Championship contenders to the fore

Nick Shiambouros updates us on the NBA scene ahead of an intriguing weekend of b-ball action “Things could not be more competitive in both Conferences. There are a host of teams that have a legitimate chance of winning the title but only two dominate the betting. The Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Lakers are both currently trading at 3.45 for the NBA championship.

Premier League Betting: Tottenham v Blackburn

Jaymes Monte looks at the first of the weekend’s Premier League matches where Tottenham are aiming to move clear of those chasing that coveted fourth Champions League spot. Best Bet: Under 2.5 goals @ 2.1 . “Blackburn’s main problem away from home has been finding the back of the net; since the turn of the year they have only managed a solitary goal from open play on their travels in the league. That leads to the 2.1 on their being less than 2.5 goals looking like a good value bet.” Luka Modric has thrown down the gauntlet to his Tottenham team mates by stating that a successful season for them would be to win the FA Cup and claim fourth spot in the Premier League. Not that Spurs or Harry Redknapp have ever shied away from the fact that they are having a tremendous season which could reap endless rewards but a public statement from one of their top players that they are not content with a Europa League spot is of great significance

Ben Davies: My goals are helping us close in on Rochdale

As the season reaches the business end of proceedings and Notts continue to climb up the table, Ben looks back at the best players he’s faced this year and nominates the best goal he’s ever scored. “We’re slowly climbing the league table and starting to catch up on some of our games in hand, in the process closing the gap on table-toppers Rochdale. They have been extremely consistent this year and have a fantastic home record. We have played against some very good players this year but for me Rochdale’s striker Chris Dagnall has been the pick of the bunch.” Another week has gone by and we’ve played two more games as we continue to battle through our hectic schedule of League Two fixtures

The Pay As You Lay Column: Goals to flow at the Stadium of Light

Can Sunderland’s defenders contain Manchester City’s attack? Should European big names be opposed at short odds? Andrew Atherley selects the best lay bets of the weekend. “Only the top three have scored more away goals than City’s 22 and the only teams to stop them scoring on the road have been Tottenham, Everton and Birmingham – all better teams than Sunderland.” Lay under 2.5 goals at 1.9 in Sunderland v Manchester City Manchester City’s much-vaunted problems on the road do not extend to a lack of goals, and that factor could help to push this match towards a high-scoring encounter, if not quite as high as City’s 4-3 win in the reverse fixture in December. Over 2.5 goals was exceeded in the opening 16 minutes on that occasion and there are reasons to believe that mark will be surpassed again, at least within the 90 minutes. Only the top three have scored more away goals than City’s 22 and the only teams to stop them scoring on the road have been Tottenham, Everton and Birmingham – all better teams than Sunderland.
