Why not? It is a certainty and surely if it brings it up by even a pound or two it helps?

Would be careful of Madrid based on this..

From bettingzone.co.uk

Real Madrid v Malaga Saturday 7pm Sky Sports Xtra

Paddy Power are taking their life in their own hands by offering Malaga up at even money to win this one with a +2 goals head start - bite their hand off.

All is not well in the home camp, and it's a big mistake to assume Real Madrid will walk this encounter with their plucky visitors.

After all, Los Merengues lost their first home game since last March when Juventus won 2-0 at the Bernabeu in the Champions League earlier this week, franking a dismal period of form for Bernd Schuster's crew overall.

Madrid have won just one of their last five games across all competitions, and can't keep a clean sheet for love nor money - every opponent has netted against them in La Liga in their last six games, including Sporting Gijon, Real Betis and Athletic Bilbao.

To put the icing on the cake, Arjen Robben injured himself in the warm-up against Juve, so he's out too, which means regardless of who you think will come out on top here in the end, evens about Malaga winning + 2 goals is simply too big.

Before their heavy defeat against Barcelona recently, the visitors had won four on the spin, including a 1-0 triumph at Sevilla, so get to Paddy Power before the Irish firm realise the error of their ways.

Have seen a fair bit of Madrid this season. There going through a score one more than the opposition phase. Incredibly Haiguin actually looks like a player now. I expect a backlash after Juve and 3-0 is my prediction.

ONL, on Ladbrokes coupon Cowdenbeath are 4/5. Fella in work was saying Liverpool are 1/5 with Hills but are 4/9 on Ladbrokes, big difference.

Ladbrokes seem to offer by far the best odds out there on pretty much all sports. Boylesports maybe not too far behind but Hills are among the worst.

Big difference in 4/9 and 1/5 though, you dont usually see such a difference.

For a small stake and an interest the old halftime full time bets are not a bad option. I lifted 1400 at the start of the season for a £5 four timer. You can always cover the fiver bet if you want by selecting one team at around evens.

Another good idea if you have the patience is to select two teams every week out of all the football (around evs) Get a friend and yourself to go a fiver each every week, pick a team each and put the £10 double on it. If the first one comes up all you just keep doing this and it means you are always playing with the bookies money (you can increase stakes if you like). But as i say it is a long slow process. I did it a few years back with a guy out of work and from £5 each we got it up to around £200 but we decided to get greedy and we put it all on AC Milan to win the champions league @ 5/2 (quarter final stage) This was the year they were beating Liverpool 3-0 in Istanbul (final) and they lost. Hence we retired at that  :D ;)
I never forget a face but in your case I will make an exception.

Today I am betting big with small risk (hopefully)

Have put a sizeable chunk (for me anyway) on Rangers, Chelski, Nemo Rangers and Pandorama (won the first race at Navan at 4/9)

Hope this doesnt blink me

I need a bit of luck.
