Premiership Betting Tips

The Premiership betting tips for the opening weekend of the season come from two difficult games in the matches between Bolton and Newcastle and Portsmouth and Derby which are not the live games but provide some interesting betting opportunities and most importantly at some decent odds.

Big Sam is back! How ironic that his first game of the season is against his former employers Bolton. This game is one that could be 1-0 Bolton, 1-0 Newcastle, 0-0, 1-1 and so on. Basically it’s a tricky one. Sam Allardyce has made some astute signing at Newcastle, the reunion of old Leeds pals Alan Smith and Mark Viduka is one of them. The return of Michael Owen will also be an obvious boost. The most advisable bet for this one is – stay away. But if I were to be made to bet, it would be on Anelka to score first. 5/1 is a decent price and if anyone were to score for Bolton, you’d have to think it’d be the Frenchman.

Another of the Premiership new boys face a difficult task against a well drilled Portsmouth. The south coast side have a rejuvenated David James to thank for many of their performances last season, should he continue in the same vein then Portsmouth will do well again this year. I can only see Derby struggling to get points in the Premiership, they have a weak squad with no strength in depth. One thing Derby did well last season was battle hard for every point they achieved, they work tirelessly on the pitch. A draw is the best bet here, 11/5 for the draw or 11/2 for 1-1.
