Beyond's Turning £100 into £1000 - Soccer Picks

[BeyondTheGame]

English Premier League

20 * Tottenham v Arsenal - Tottenham to win @ 2.00

Arsenal IMHO were lucky to escape with a win in Midweek, the team from Greece had a lot of chances and unfortunately for their sake they couldn't put any away. Tottenham conversely are a team you can't give that many chances to I've said it a few times this midfield that the Spurs has is fantastic and with Adebayor leading the lines.

In the end if Arsenal play against Spurs like they did in Midweek they will lose, Tottenham is looking settled and should get the win here. Tottenham to win 2-1. Watch out for Adebayor to score as well in this one against his former club.

A quick one - will update record soon.

Turkish Super Ligi

20 * Gaziantepspor v Besiktas - Besiktas to win @ 2.10

[akatdrake]

Keep up the great work Beyond! Glad to see you're on a bit of a run.

[BeyondTheGame]

Thanks drake we started off well, however need to bounce back took the week off to settle and focused on the nfl by following some of the picks and did well. So lets see if we can get some back now.

Euro 2012 Qualifiers

30 * Malta v Israel - Israel to win @ 1.50

Simply put Israel need the win here I think there is more quality with them than there is with Malta as shown by the last outing against Malta a 3-1 home win. Israel have lost their last 2 against Croatia and Greece I think a rebound here is a must.

2014 World Cup Qualifiers - South America

15 * Chile v Peru - Chile to win @ 1.50

Chile hasn't started the campaign in the best way possible on a three game losing streak, however the quality of the teams they have lost to have all been high quality teams from Spain, Mexico to recently losing to Argentina.

Last time these two played in Copa America Chile won 1-0 courtesy of a 90th minute goal from memory. Also just a quick note last time in the qualifiers for the 2010 edition Chile beat Peru twice.

The lineups look strong for both teams, however I do expect the Chileans to come out firing in this game and get the important home wins on the board here.

Some good figures there, but still a long way off from the goal of £1,000.

I'm going to have a look at some of the MLS games soon.

Major League Soccer

10 * Chicago Fire v FC Dallas - Chicago Fire to win @ 2.50

Looking at recent form heading into this it is safe to say Chicago look the better team. Chicago have been picking up the place in an attempt to get into playoffs they are 6 points out. Dallas conversely needs a win here to secure their place. Dallas have lost their last 4 games and I believe they haven't scored a goal for over 300 minutes. If Ferriera were playing for Dallas I would be inclined to look away from this game, however with him being Injured I believe this gives Chicago a great chance to win the cup from Dallas this year.

Looking on the expected squad line ups I think Chicago looks very deadly at the front with Oduro who has been in great form. I expect Chicago to run away victors comfortably. 2-0 Win.

Also in reference to the DC United game thats also on - I'm going to stay away from it seeing as De Rosario won't be playing for DC United I think it is a good chance for Vancouver to get some points but I'm not comfortable to pick it.

[BeyondTheGame]

Chicago lost 1-2 -10

Gutted I didn't go with Vancouver in the end could've got some decent odds.

Irish Premier League

15 * Shamrock Rovers v Derry - Shamrock to win @ 2.00

Shamrock win 1-0 WIN +15.00

Okay Saturday is here and lets get it started with the Early kickoff games. (Also I'm going to be putting the odds in the American system next to the decimal to make it easier to follow.

English Premier League

5 * Liverpool v Man Utd - Draw @ 3.00 (+200)

I can't separate both teams its one of the bigger matches of the season last season Liverpool won at Anfield 3-1. I don't think that is going to happen. Man Utd would like to win but I think a lot of their concern will go into next weeks matchup against City. Liverpool was a little bit lucky to get the win against Everton. I'm expecting 1-1 draw.

German Bundesliga 2

10 * Union Berlin v Karlsruhe - Union Berlin to win @ 1.80 (-125)

Union Berlin come into this game on the back of some good home form I think it is 4 home wins in a row. Karlruhe hasn't been that impressive this season last two outings coming with draws Their last win away from home was back in August.

10 * Duisburg v Ingolstadt - Duisburg to win @ 1.80 (-125)

Ingolstadt are in bad form when away from home with 5 straight losses on the road. Duisburg hasn't been in good form either, however Duisberg have never lost to Ingolstadt before in there previous 4 matches. All the games at home have resulted in Duisberg putting in a lot of goals and winning.

20 * Duisburg v Ingolstadt - Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.65 (-154)

Expect goals.

Good Luck on these ones I'll be back on a little bit later for the main games of the day going to be focusing on the EPL and England

[BeyondTheGame]

Really nice start to get things going.

Duisburg win 3-1 WIN! +8
Over 2.5 Goals - WIN! +13
Union Berlin win 2-0 WIN! +8
