You Bet: Rovers And Bohs Will Meet In The Fai Cup Final

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

William Hill are offering odds of 6/5 for bitter rivals Shamrock Rovers and Bohemians to meet in this year’s FAI Cup final.

The first of the two semi-finals takes place at Dalymount Park on Friday night when Bohemians take on Sligo Rovers. Hills make Bohemians 2/5 favourites to qualify for the final, while Sligo Rovers are available at 7/4. In the 90 minutes market – Bohemians are 4/6, Sligo Rovers are 7/2, and the draw is on offer at 23/10.

The other semi-final is an all-Dublin affair between Shamrock Rovers and St. Patrick’s Athletic on Sunday. The Hoops are 1/2 to qualify for the final at the expense of St. Patrick’s Athletic who are 6/4 to reach the final. The home side are 5/6 favourites to win the game in 90 minutes, St. Pat’s are 11/4 – and the draw is 9/4.

The bookies are also offering odds on both Shamrock Rovers and Bohemians completing the Airtricity League/FAI Cup double this season. Hills make Bohs 5/2 to complete the double – while Rovers are 15/2 to win both titles.

‘On league form, Rovers and Bohs look like the obvious candidates to reach the final,’ said William Hill spokesman Tony Kenny ‘However, league form goes out the window in the Cup – and St. Patrick’s Athletic and Sligo Rovers will both fancy their chances of upsetting the odds.’

Northern Ireland Out To 7/1 To Reach Euro’s

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Northern Ireland have been pushed out to 7/1 from 6/1 to qualify for Euro 2012 following their disappointing draw 1-1 with the Faroe Islands on Tuesday afternoon.

Nigel Worthington’s side were odds on favourites to beat the minnows, but they were only saved an embarrassing defeat when Kyle Lafferty equalised in the 76th minute.

Northern Ireland are now quoted as 14/1 shots to win Group C by William Hill who make Italy the 4/11 favourites to win the Group.

‘Northern Ireland seem to have no problem competing against the big teams in Europe – it’s the lesser teams who are the problem,’ said William Hill spokesman Tony Kenny ‘They put in a brilliant performance against Italy last week, but they failed to follow it up in the Faroes.’

PUNTERS BET LIVERPOOL WILL GET AWAY WITHOUT POINTS DEDUCTION

WILLIAM HILL have slashed their odds that Liverpool will NOT be handed a Premier League points deduction this season from 1/3 to 1/6 – and now offer 7/2 from 9/4 that they will do so. ‘Punters seem convinced that Liverpool will not have to face a points deduction and it does seem very rare for bigger clubs to suffer the same sort of fate as smaller fry like Portsmouth and Southampton, so we have lengthened the odds that Liverpool will have one or more points deducted this season’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

With Wayne Rooney starting the match, Hills offer 4/7 that he will still be on the pitch when the final whistle blows – and 5/4 that he will not. ‘Rooney is another whose fitness has to be taken on trust and it would be no surprise to see him taken off if he looks off the pace, or, perhaps, if the game is well won some time before the end’ added Sharpe.
Hills offer 3/10 that Joe Hart will start the rest of the games in goal.
