Tiger Roll for the National? Hard not to really fancy it but 4/1 in such a lottery is so short. The win at Cheltenham was unbelievable though, made it look so easy.

Pleasant Company looks a fair price @20/1. Runner up in 2018 and is currently around 5 times the price of the fav. Another yard or two last year and Pleasant Company would have nailed Tiger on the line to win.

But I think Tiger Roll is getting better and better and is incredibly consistent. I'll have a closer look at PC though.

I agree he's still improving and is impossible not to love. Brilliant little horse. And if he gets soft ground and a clear round of jumping then it's just a question of whether the extra weight this year can slow him down enough to let one of my 100/1 shots creep past.

What horses are you backing for the Grand National?
 
What horses are you backing for the Grand National?

Backed both Ballyoptic and Joe Farrell each way at 50/1 & 33/1. Both horses should stay the trip and won't mind the ground either. They finished 1st & 2nd in last year's Scottish Grand National at a similar weight differences to what they'll carry on Saturday. It's over 10yrs since I last backed the winner though so I'm not suggesting anyone follows me. And Bet365 are refunding half stake on all each way bets again this year which is decent. Do you like any horses for it?
 
PSV -1.5
Heerenveen +1.5
Alaves +1.5
Leganes-Valladolid over 1.5 goals

Just seen United legend De Laet score a cracker :lol:

Melbourne were 1.80 after Brisbane equalised.
 
Blue Jackets -1.5 vs the Rangers @2.05. Rangers are done for the season and Columbus are fighting the for last play off spot in the east. Should be a comfortable win for them.
 
Might end my sabbatical this weekend. Some really good matchups but I'm a bit hesitant on the Barca/Atleti and Juve/Milan games depending on lineups. Can see Barca and Juve both resting players.
 
Dagenham v Barrow, Barrow 0 @ 2.03

25/1 for Brighton to win in the 90... :drool:
 
Really tempted to go BTTS Everton/Arsenal and Watford/Wolves double @ 2.7...

Arsenal haven't kept a clean sheet away all season and I doubt Everton would win to nil. Watford and Wolves are both likely to go for it and have very dangerous attacking players.
 
Watford v Wolves, Wolves -0.25 @ 2.15
Toulouse v Nantes, Toulouse -0.25 @ 2.2
Fortuna Köln v Rostock, Köln 0.25 @ 2.26
Lüneburg v Lübeck, Lüneburg 1 @ 1.96
Cagliari v Spal, Spal 0.25 @ 2.11
 
Lenglet to be booked against Man United 2.75

Booked in 6 of his last 10 games and with Alba getting forward I expect us to exploit that space where Lenglet may end up defending one vs one against Lukaku.

Edit - BetVictor have a much better price at 4.10 :eek:

Wow. Bet on Helsinki & Over 2.5 goals earlier @ 2.03 and it was the worst game ever. Went 1-0 down in the 70th minute equalizedised in the 88th minute and scored the winner in the 93rd :lol:

Hope it's a sign of things to come!

Hilal 1-0 down though. Have dominated the game since conceding from sloppy defending from a corner. Still think they can win!
 
Really like Chelsea's lineup tonight. Can't decide if I think -1.5 @ 1.75 is any good though. Been pretty tight in recent games against West Ham.

Edit: No, I don't.

Gone for a Over 2.5 treble in the end.

Chelsea/West Ham @ 1.48
Brugge/Liege @ 1.48
France Women/Denmark Women @ 1.65

Treble came in @ 3.61

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals in the Chelsea game, 2/1

Feel quite annoyed by this. Chelsea should have got at least 3 :(
 
Deportes Quindio @ 2.0 I think is a decent bet. Playing Atletico Cali (P10, W0, D5, L5) away from home in the Columbian second division and they've not won in 14 games and have a pretty good record against them in recent years. Quindio is also undefeated in 5 games and is currently 4th in the table(P10, W5, D4).
 
I think that Liverpool,City , Barca and Juve to qualify accumulator whatever the value is a nailed on . City the only ones there is a slight doubt but I think that they should have too much for Spurs
 
Tottenham to crumble and City will be out of sight before 2nd leg. Liverpool should win, Portos biggest threat on set-pieces, and they will not have many. Been lucky with draw so far.

Can't resist a punt on Bolton @ 5 to 1, Boro has lost 7 straight games so really good value IMHO.

Going in heavy on Wednesday-Forrest BTTS @ 1,95. European cup winners VS 4 times league champions, they're both to good not to score. Ohh, and they both need to win badly!
 
Had Alaves to win against Leganes last Sunday... and this happened on the 93rd minute:



Today, I had Gyeongnam to win Kashima Antlers in the ACL. Gyeongnam were 2-0 up with 19 minutes to go after a goalless first half. Guess what? They conceded 3 goals against a team who played with 10 men from the 84th minute onwards (and Kashima played without their top goalscorer this season too) :wenger:
