Fairly dull first legs have left both Europa League semi-finals finely poised, so there is an opportunity to make money just by picking the finalists. Fulham and Atletico Madrid are the two favourites to go through after favourable first-leg results, yet can be backed at 9/4 with Bet365 to meet in Germany.

Fulham have won seven of their eight European home games this season, whereas Hamburg have escaped without a beating in only two of their last

You might not be inclined to agree, after Manchester United flopped in Munich last night to end our Millwall, Steve Bruce and Carlos Tevez inspired winning streak, but we’re still confident that there’s money to be made backing British, and are doing so again in the Champions League.

Arsenal might not be as easy on the eye as the trio we named above (or have we got that the wrong way round?) but their home record this season is the stuff stat anoraks like ourselves dream about: they’ve played 23, won 20 of

If you stick your neck on the line all time, there are going to be occasions where you’re left looking like a right idiot. For us, the egg-on-face moment was backing AC Milan to knock out Manchester United. Still, it was only 7-2 on aggregate so we weren’t too far wrong…

Our lesson has been learned though and we are hopping back, tail between legs, in support of the three-time European champions tonight in Germany

Seven of Carlos Tevez’s 16 Premier League goals this season have been scored in Monday night games, which is a pretty emphatic stat considering he’s only played in four such matches.

The Argentine scored a hat-trick against Blackburn at Eastlands and scored twice at home to former club West Ham and away to Wolves, so bet on him

Aston Villa set for nasty surprise from old enemy

At the start of March, all the talk was about Sunderland’s 14-match winless run but a few good results later, that statistic has been replaced by one about them losing just once in eight games – and that was away to Arsenal.

Similarly, praise for Aston Villa’s status as the only Premier League team unbeaten in 2010 has diminished recently, with greater emphasis placed on

Back the Donny-Darlo double

Spurred on by the profit made backing Millwall to win at Leeds yesterday, we’re staying loyal to the Football League and chasing long odds tonight – a £10 double on Doncaster beating Newcastle and Darlington getting the better of Aldershot provides a profit of £127 on Betfair. Not too shabby!

Why are we siding with the two outsiders? It’s not just because we think the
