Soccer Picks for EPL Game Week 19



Last week saw a strange phenomenon. Easy matches turned out to be stiff challenges. Whether it was Manchester City, Manchester United or Arsenal, each of these teams had to sweat to earn points from their lowly rated adversaries. While Arsenal and Manchester City managed narrow wins, Red Devils had to be contended with a single point. At last the quality of all teams in the EPL came to the fore last week.

Out of the top lying teams Chelsea made quite an impact when they thrashed Aston Villa by eight goals. Though Fernando Torres scored a goal but it was a collective whole that won Chelsea this match. The superb performance again threw Chelsea’s name into title contention. Liverpool too had a convincing win over Fulham. They won by four goals, thanks largely to the superb form of Stewart Downing. Downing return to scoring ways in this game.

It was not an easy time for the Manchester teams though. Manchester City probed throughout the match against Reading but the stubborn defence of this low lying EPL team was not easy to break. Though the attacks were all one sided but Federici and other defenders were able to ward off the Citizens charge again and again. It took an injury time goal by Gareth Barry to earn Manchester City all the points. Soccer betting experts are still hopeful of a second title winning season for Manchester City. And all these experts would have been heartened by Manchester United’s point drop at Swansea. Though Manchester United took an early lead through a corner via Patrice Evra, but Michu proved yet again why he has been so successful this season. He came up with an equalizer. After the break there was a flurry of Manchester United attack but it was seen off by Vorm and Williams. This will also reduce the gap between the Manchester clubs to four points. 


It seems to be a dwindling season for AVB’s men at Tottenham. This week they ended a goalless draw against Stoke City. They are not amongst the soccer picks for EPL 2012-13. While Newcastle are again back to winning ways. 

Arsene Wenger would be laughing at the end of Week 18; his team are now in the fourth position which was not anticipated even a few days back. Though they are not among soccer picks for EPL title, but it seems they will make it Champions League again.

Soccer Betting Tips for Game Week 18



Another thrilling week of English football is in store for us. Though, Manchester City and Manchester United have come up as the clear contenders for the EPL crown, with Chelsea fading away in the recent weeks. It is intense in the middle of the table. Queens Park Rangers is not the best choice in terms of soccer betting. Even Harry Rednapp has not been able to turn the fortunes of this club. They lie right at the bottom. Though Reading has been scoring significantly but they too have found winning games a difficult art to grasp. Wigan, a team that promised so much last season and even early on this campaign, has fallen in value in terms of various soccer betting systems. 

Two clubs with high expectations, Liverpool and Newcastle are also falling away from the top 4 finish with every passing game. If Liverpool still holds some takers in soccer betting systems it is due to their duo of Luis Suarez and Jose Enrique. Their skills have been appreciated by many.  On the other hand Newcastle fans would be wishing their Senegalese strike force of Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse to hit the prime of form for the rest of season. There is a lot of talent in this team, but sadly that is not coming to the fore.

It has been a season of uncertain fortunes for the Gunners. One week they have showed their usual flair and won the hearts but very next week they have been sub-standard. Soccer betting experts are even confused about this club. With a capable manager in Arsene Wenger, who has led his admirably for so many years, a top 4 finish is still possible for Arsenal.

If we talk about the top 2 teams, though ManU has a lead of 8 points over the Citizens, but in EPL this is not a comprehensive margin. A few bad results and they could be on even terms. Many soccer betting experts are tipping for a tight finish this season too. That would be thrilling no doubt.

Betting systems are still holding Manchester United as the top title contenders due to their consistency and the roaring form of star striker robin Van Persie.

BPL Soccer picks for Game Week 16



In the last few weeks there have been many talking points as far as English Premier League is concerned. The sacking of Roberto Di Mateo, the Chelsea manager and appointment of Rafael Benitez has been on the mouths of every Chelsea fan. RDM and his led Chelsea were one of the top soccer picks at the start of BPL 2012-13 especially after winning the Champions League. Though they started the season strong, but they have disappointed in Europe as well as in the league. It was too hard for Roman Abramovich to digest. Rafael is not the choice for Chelsea fans and his team’s loss to West Ham has ignited the fire even further.

Swansea on the other hand is a dark horse in this year’s BPL as far as tips for soccer from pundits are concerned. The Spaniard Miguel Michu has made an instant impression after coming to BPL. Michael Laudrup has Swansea many steps forward after the departure of Brendan Rodgers. Swansea can upset anyone on their best days as was revealed at Emirates Stadium last week.  They are sitting pretty at the seventh position. On the other hand Arsenal has their set of problems. The forwards are still not firing and they still seem to be missing Robin Van Persie’s services. Mr. Wenger will have to spend big in January transfer window. 

At the top Manchester clubs are going strong. Manchester United is sitting at the top position despite their defensive frailties. Though they are conceding many goals (which will be a concern of Sir Alex) but they have the fire-power in the form of Rooney and Van Persie to score more. Manchester City on the other hand seems to be lacking a cutting edge in the midfield. Yaya Toure is still not firing all cylinders, though Tavez is finding some lost touch. 

At the bottom Queen’s Park Rangers are nearing their exit from the BPL with every passing game. Will Harry Redknap be able to prevent their slide? That’s one of the questions. They are not a part of any persons soccer picks. Though a lot of money has been spent behind this team, but quality is still missing in the squad.

BPL Season So Far: Players Ratings



After the week for International friendlies the BPL season will get back on track come the next week. BPL is seen as the best football league all around the globe and quality of players are the prime factor behind this. BPL consists of players from all continents and there are many unheard of soccer nations.

Let us try to analyse the players who have fired or misfired in the early stages of BPL 2012-13 season. One of the stark improvements this season in terms of form has been the Chelsea ace striker Fernando Torres. Unlike last season he has found the back of the net quite regularly. It is due to his goal scoring prowess that Chelsea find themselves in a much better situation early on this season. Demba Ba, who took BPL by storm, but lost his touch at the end of last season is also in prime form. Newcastle are very lucky to have a strike force where Papiss Cisse or Demba Ba either of them fit form alternatively.

Robin Van Persie, the much talked transfer of the season for Manchester United has shown a mixed bag of form. At times he has looked at his mesmerising best while at others he has looked quite flat. Wayne Rooney was the hero of the season for ManU last season but he is still not 100% match fit as per word from ManU coaching staff.

There are some unheralded names making headlines as far as strike force goes. Nikica Jelavic of Everton looks to be carrying his good form last season. He has already scored 4 goals for the club. Stoke City’s Peter Crouch is also drawing quite a lot of eye balls. Wigan’s Arouna Kone is also an attractive player and has scored 3 goals this season. Carlos Tevez of Manchester City has made the most of his chances for the All Stars team.  

There are some ace forwards still reeling with their injuries. The list consists of Emmanuel Adebayor and Dimitar Berbatov. Lukas Podolski on the other hand has failed to impress the soccer betting enthusiasts and is not amongst soccerpicks of the season. 


Hope these soccer insights will be useful as far as soccer tips goes.

Soccer Betting Tips for English Premium League

English Premium League or EPL is going on with its full fervent secreting more hormones of the soccer fans of all over the world. If you are a soccer betting buff then you definitely need some tips for soccer to win a good deal of money. This season of EPL has started with two biggest shocks. The defeats of the champion teams; Manchester United and Liverpool lower the confidence for soccer picks. On the other hand, Swansea which is not a reputed team has performed well till date. They have won 2 out of 2 matches while Arsenal has drawn in 2 matches. Both the Chelsea and Man City have won 2 out of 2 matches. Chelsea is looking the best side at the moment.    

Here are soccer picks for the next week which will help you to win a fair bet.

Game 1: Aston Villa v/s Everton

In the season of 2012-2013, Aston Villa had a slow start and they even dropped a match to promote West Ham. And their opponent team is the Everton who already defeated Manchester United last week. Though the match is a home match for Aston Villa but around the EPL, Everton has developed a reputation. It is expected that Everton will have control and domination from the start of the game.     

Game 2: Manchester United V/s Fulham

It is the time of Fulham to claim to fame after the 5-0 win against Norwich City. On the other hand Manchester United was lacking of energy in their Everton match. But there must be more cards under the hat of Robin van Persie which will help Man U to do justice with their name and fame. Though Fulham is always a tricky opponent, Manchester United still have the power and chance to score a few goals in the season.

Game 3: Liverpool v/s Manchester City

After the shameful defeat, Liverpool will be doing their best to regain their glory. But this time they will have a tough opponent: Manchester City; the Champion of EPL. And Manchester City is playing quality soccer quite impressively. For this match it can be said that City is a better team right now.  

 Game 4: Norwich V/s Queens Park

Both of the teams are not high quality but they know that they can earn 3 points if they will try hard. Both of these mediocre teams have fair chances to win as the standards are almost same.

Game 5: Chelsa V/S New Castle United

New Castle United is the only team who has already played as well as two matches this season. Fernando Torres and Eden Hazard of Chelsa also have showed signs and are going to be relied this season for championship. It will better for you to go for a draw situation.
