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

Reading take on Cardiff on Friday and they are the slight 5/4 favourites to secure a first leg victory against Cardiff who are 9/4 with the draw 11/5. Cardiff and Reading are both priced at 5/6 to qualify for the Wembley final. Two players who are certain to feature heavily in the game are Craig Bellamy and Ian Harte. Harte, Reading’s regular penalty taker, is 8/1 to score from the spot during the game, while Bellamy is 11/10 to still be at Cardiff on the first game of next season. Shane Long is 5/1 favourite to open the scoring during the game, with Noel Hunt 11/2. Craig Bellamy, Michael Chopra, Jay Bothroyd and Simon Church are all 7/1.

Hills are also offering 1/2 that the side which wins the Playoff final ends up being relegated from the Premier League next season. The Playoff winning side are also 25/1 to get the lowest ever points total.

“Sides that win the Championship playoffs generally spend the following season flirting with relegation and the odds suggest that whoever goes up will go straight back down,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Reading / Cardiff:

90 Minutes: 5/4 Reading; 9/4 Cardiff; 11/5 Draw

To Qualify: 5/6 Cardiff; 5/6 Reading

Becks 6/1 To Score Against Man U For Spurs – Kenny Odds On To Get Liverpool Gig Long Term

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

*************************************WILLIAM HILL MIDWEEK FOOTBALL ROUND UP*****************************************

BECKS TO BATTER FERGIE?….William Hill offer 6/1 that David Beckham will score for Spurs against Manchester United if he signs on loan for them this January. (Bets void if Beckham does not sign for Spurs)

ENGLAND ODDS-ON TO BEAT GHANA. England have been made 1/2 favourites to win their forthcoming friendly with Ghana by William Hill who make the away team a 5/1shot with the draw AT 12/5.

YOU BET KENNY IS THERE FOR LIVERPOOL LONG HAUL

KENNY DALGLISH has been backed from 13/8 to 10/11 favourite to win the manager’s job at Liverpool on a permanent basis following the club’s FA Cup defeat at Old Trafford. ‘Clearly the fact that his team conceded a first minute penalty, had their skipper sent off and failed to score has impressed punters, who haven’t wanted to back anyone else to get the job on a long-term basis’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

NEXT PERMANENT LIVERPOOL MANAGER?….10/11 Dalglish; 9/2 O’Neill; 11/2 Coyle; 6/1 Rijkaard; 7/1 Rangnick; 8/1 Villas-Boas. Others on request.

WHERE WILL LIVERPOOL FINISH IN PREM?….top 4 – 20/1; 5th-7th 11/8; 8th -10th -13/8; 11th-14th – 3/1; 15th-17th – 10/1; Bottom three – 25/1.

WILL KENNY FIND TORRES SCORING BOOTS?….With Kenny Dalglish declaring he can bring the best out of mis-firing striker Fernando Torres, William Hill are betting on how many Premier League goals he will score during the remainder of the season – and make 6 or less their 5/4 favourite. ‘Torres has not looked the same player for Liverpool since the World Cup, at which although he ended up on the winning side he was not over impressive. His form could be the key to the rest of Liverpool’s season’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills…Torres PL goals for rest of season:

6 or less
5/4

7 to 9
15/8

10 or more
2/1

CARLING CUP:

YOU BET CARLTON WILL BE UP FOR CARLING

CARLTON COLE has socred in his last five Carling Cup games and William Hill make him a 6/4 chance to continue the sequence against Birmingham in their Semi Final first leg game on Tuesday.

HILLS…TO WIN CARLING CUP…8/15 Arsenal; 7/2 Birmingham; 9/2 West Ham; 14/1Ipswich.

Semi Final first leg with most goals:

West Ham v Birmingham
12/5

Tie
3/1

Ipswich v Arsenal
8/11

GRANT NEXT FOR MANAGERIAL HAMMERING?

AVRAM GRANT is 1/3 favourite with William Hill to be the next Premier League manager to leave his club this season. Hills also offer 11/2 Houllier; 11/2 Ancelotti; 10/1 McCarthy; 16/1 Hughes; 16/1 Martinez; 20/1 Kean; Di Matteo; Mancini; No more managers to go this season. ‘Mr Grant has been favourite in this market on five different occasions so far, and managed to survive thus far, so he probably isn’t even popular with football punters in general, let alone West Ham fans at the moment’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
