Stealing Money - 27

[Ken4155]

Premier League leaders Man City host 17th placed Leeds United, tomorrow, kick off 3pm. Leeds need the points to enhance their chances of PL survival and this is a 'free hit' for them. Everyone expects them to receive a good spanking - including me.
I can't really see them holding out for too long and i would expect City to have this one sewn up by half time.

Therefore, i have snapped up the EVENS offered by WH that City will lead at half time. The usual £10 max stake applies.

Thanks Ken, I'll follow you on this one.
My only concern is how big the bus will be that Big Sam parks across their goal.

I saw this earlier and I'll probably have a go :)
I'm almost certain Man City will beat Leeds (although nothing is guaranteed) ..... but will Leeds manage to hold on until half time??

I know that Leeds' survival is at stake .... but Man City's hunger for 3 points will be huge, seeing how the fate of the title is now in their own hands.

Just been checking back and i find that the last 11 'Epic Value' bets have obliged. I actually managed to miss one of those:-(

I just worry about the Big Sam effect.

[Ken4155]

I know what you mean, Hoppy, but they have the leakiest defence in the league and i don't think a couple of days is long enough for Big Sam to instil any steel in there.
My main concern was whether Pep would rest some of his 'better' players ahead of the first leg of the match away at Real Madrid on Tuesday. Thankfully, though he has rested Grealish, he has included Haaland, KDB, Alvarez, Mahrez and Foden in the line up. There's enough firepower there to test this Leeds 'keeper who has only played in a handful of cup matches.

[Ken4155]

Never in any doubt, really, was it? :-)) Should have been more than 2.

[Ken4155]

That makes it 20/27 for me. Hope they continue with this 'Epic Value' bet next season, i might get one or two of my non-gambling neighbours to open accounts:-)

[Gizmonster]

8/8 for me :)

Thanks Ken. You're a diamond.
