Middlesbrough v Xanthi Skoda - best betting tip
I've taken a bit of a hammering at the bookies lately and there is a lesson in there for everyone.
I lost on Northern Ireland v England and Middlesbrough v Arsenal. Who would have thought that England would come a cropper in Belfast and that Arsenal would suffer defeat at The Riverside?
So much for dead certs eh and it just shows you that gambling is a mug's game and you should buy an extra half time pie instead of wasting your money on lining the bookie's pockets.
Have you ever seen a poor bookmaker? No, neither have I and you only have to take a take a look at the blank faces watching the racing in Ladbrokes on any given day to realise that it is a big mistake to indulge.
OK - lecture over. Now it's time to get our money out and claw back the losses from the last two matches.
Middlesbrough against Skoda Xanthi. A Porsche convertible against, well, a Skoda.
And despite the earache I've had from Mrs H during the last wek, I'm going to bet big on this one because no way on this planet will three shock results materialise in three consecutive matches.
It's Boro all the way here and the only difficulty is predicting by how many.
But Ladbrokes have made it easy for us by offering huge odds on Boro scoring three or more and that is where this week's wages are going.
The resounding win over Arsenal, the competition for striker's places and a carnival type UEFA Cup atmosphere created by around 15,000 Boro fans will stir the team and this tie will be killed off in the first leg.
There's nothing complicated about my tip this week. I have £10 on the following.
Middlesbrough win 2-0 @ 5/1
Middlesbrough win 3-0 @ 8/1
Middlesbrough win 4-0 @ 18/1
Middlesbrough win 5-0 @ 66/1
I'm having a £20 on a straight Boro win at 4/11 because even though the odds are light, it's such a dead cert that it's silly not to take it.
