The Joker’s Bet of the Day: Friday March 12

A tip from the Joker to get your betting day under way… The Joker’s Bet of the Day: Back Over 2.5 Goals at 2.42 in Nimes v Chateauroux It turns out the new SV Hamburger can be just like the old SV Hamburger. As they were winning 3-1 against Anderlecht last night, the Joker got to thinking about how some things are just not meant to be: McDonalds might have painted all of its restaurants green, but should never be regarded as a healthy option; so SV Hamburger might have brought in an Italian-sounding coach (Bruno Labbadia), but they should never be regarded as an under-goals team. Tonight’s game is Nimes versus Chateauroux in France’s Ligue 2. You might think you know where this is going, but wait… Six of Nimes’s last seven home games have gone Over 2.5 Goals. They’ve won four of the last five 2-1 ( 9.6 in the Correct Score market), but the Joker’s obliged to find a more likely bet, so, because six of Chateauroux’s last nine on the road have also gone Over 2.5 Goals, that’s what he’s plumping for this evening. Over goals in France, eh? Yes, it’s very brave indeed.

A tip from the Joker to get your betting day under way… The Joker’s Bet of the Day: Back Under 2.5 Goals at 1.97 in Hamburg v Anderlecht Caracas FC and the Joker were undone yesterday by a Brazil striker whose arrivals (arrives, Ron?) in opponents’ boxes are accompanied in the Joker’s head by the Ride of the Valkyries Apocalypse Now music. He scored twice as Flamengo won 3-1, but, unlike Hitler before him, the Joker refuses to allow Vagner Love to skew his worldview. In fact, he’s going to forget last night ever happened and move straight on to this evening’s Europa League action, which includes Hamburg v Anderlecht

The Joker’s Bet of the Day: Friday March 5

A tip from the Joker to get your betting day under way… The Joker’s Bet of the Day: Back Over 2.5 Goals at 1.6 in Excelsior v Oss Paulista 2 Santos 3. This over-goals thing really works. The Joker’s now two for two since he started making Over 2.5 Goals bets to avoid the possibility of being undone by late goals. And he’s gunning for three for three today as Excelsior Rotterdam take on Oss in the Dutch Eerstedivisie

Ben Davies: A great week for us but my thoughts are with Keith Alexander

The Notts County midfielder on summer plans, his tip for the World Cup and mourning the loss of Keith Alexander. “Hopey looked like a Yeti and his beard was wild. When we did eventually lose and Hopey shaved it off, he had got an in-growing hair on the side of his face which caused him to have a massive scar along his jaw line, which he has still got today.” We continue to make our way through our busy schedule and backlog of fixtures as the countdown to the end of the season ticks away. We now have sixteen games left, which is the most in our division, and is a result of our FA Cup run. We are still in a very good position, sitting in seventh, with three and four games in hand on the other teams in our division. We have just picked up back-to-back wins in the League and have got ourselves within touching distance of the teams above us. We had a very good win in our match against Hereford, beating them 5-0, and then came through a very tough and hard fought game on Tuesday night, where we beat Macclesfield 1-0.. The Hereford United game saw our recently appointed manager Steve Cotterill take charge of the team for the first time.

Was it only yesterday the Joker was mentioning how much richer he would be if football was an 85-minute game? Last night. 85 minutes gone. Velez Sarsfield are 4-3 up on Boca Juniors. The Joker’s taken them to win… You can guess the rest. 88th minute again
