3pm - Sheff Utd v Exeter - 1.54 home
HEAD TO HEADS - no recent head to heads.
HEAD TO HEADS - no recent head to heads.
LEAGUE POSITION - 4th v 20th after 15 matches so hopefully more matches equals better trends
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Sheff Utd
RECENT HOME FORM - WWWLWLDW - losses at home have come against current 1st and 2nd and draw came against 3rd. An inference that Utd can cope with the rest of the teams.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WWDLWLLDWDW - the other loss came away to lowly Wycombe 1-0 ( 2nd from bottom).
GOAL TRENDS - 75% overs at home. The only matches which weren't overs were 2-0 scorelines.Away from top 3, have scored 2,2,3,4,3 at home.
STREAKS - have scored in the last 4 matches and conceded in the last 6 matches.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Exeter
RECENT AWAY FORM - DLLLLLW - recent win against 17th placed Walsall.Ominously lost 2-0 and 3-0 against 1st and 3rd away and playing 4th today.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DLLLWLLDLLWLLWW - first time Exeter have put together a winning sequence of 2 - these wins against 17th and 18th.Wins have come against 12th, 17th, 18th and 22nd. Have played 7 matches home and away against top 10 , losing 6 and drawing 1.
GOAL TRENDS - another side with low overs away from home, why? Because of 3 2-0 losing scorelines. exeter are most vulnerable in the quarter hour before halftime, conceding 8 goals in this period. Last 3 matches overs.Last 7 matches would have been over 2.5 goals bar the 3 2-0 scorelines. Exeter have failed to score in 6 of 7 away matches.
STREAKS - 6 away without a draw, 7 overall.Have conceded in all of the last 6 matches.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - the kind of match which presents quite straightforward stats.And the kind of match I would prioritise as it seems easy to read, and clear cut. It would seem that Exeter have problems scoring away, and this has been shown by 2-0 and 3-0 losses to 1st and 3rd ( playing 4th today).Sheff Utd have scored from 2-4 goals at home when not playing top 3. Only really dropped points against top 3 sides.exeter have lost 6 and drawn 1 of the 7 matches they have played home and away against top 10 sides.
Like I say this is the kind of match to prioritise, despite being in a league I know little about.

LEAGUE POSITION - 14th v 11th so as tightly matched as the odds suggest.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - SUNDERLAND
RECENT HOME FORM - LLWD - wins against Stoke and draw v West Brom. Losses to Newcastle and Chelsea.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - DLDLWLDLW - inconsistent form overall.All losses have come against current top 8 sides.

RECENT OVERALL FORM - DDDL - 4-1 loss v Man City.Draws against Fulham, Everton and Villa.
GOAL TRENDS - 50/50 overs away from home. Have scored in last 6.Only 4 matches over 2.5 goals this season.
STREAKS - 4 away without a win. Have scored in last 6.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - head to heads point to defenses dominating? 5 draws in 9 matches for Villa hints at defense on top.Sunderland are wholly inconsistent and so dangerous for the trader. Not a match I can get any angles into bar the possibility of a tight match goalswise.
3pm - Swansea v Bolton - 2.18 home - like the match above, I would have thought the favs would have been Bolton and Villa!
HEAD TO HEADS - no head to heads
HEAD TO HEADS - no head to heads
LEAGUE POSITION - 15th v 18th - a win takes Bolton out of the bottom 3 ( albeit only 9 matches in)
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - SWANSEA
RECENT HOME FORM - DDWW 0-0's against Wigan and Sunderland and 3-0 and 2-0 wins against West Brom and Stoke. These teams are what I call " championship type sides" - Bolton have been in the Premiership for a while now.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LDDLWLWLD - losses all away to 1st, 3rd, 7th and 8th. Wins against 9th and 12th.Draws against 14th, 16th and 19th. A pattern of sorts? And Bolton fall into the draw category.
GOAL TRENDS - only 1 of 4 matches over 2.5 goals.4 of the last 5 matches over 2.5 goals.Have scored in last 5 matches.
STREAKS - Swansea have kept a clean sheet in 4 matches.Have won their last 2 home matches.Have scored in all of last 5.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - BOLTON
RECENT AWAY FORM - WLLW - win v QPR , losses v Liverpool and Arsenal and win v Wigan ( hardly unexpected). Admittedly tough opening to season.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WLLLLLLWL - no draw this season. Losses against 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 8th and 14th.
GOAL TRENDS - 8 of last 9 matches over 2.5 goals. , but remember they have played City, United, Arsenal, Chelsea , Liverpool. Have conceded in last 8 .
STREAKS - 9 without a draw.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - another match tough to call as Bolton have been poor but have played the traditional top 5. Swansea are now scoring in their matches and this might be the angle in - a goals angle? Bolton's nouse would normally see them get something out of these matches. THey are difficult to weigh up currently. Hint at a possible draw. Swansea are losing against top sides, beating middle and drawing with lower league sides.

LEAGUE POSITION - 2nd v 14th after 13 matches - another masterful job from Sven conman Eriksson.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - West Ham
RECENT HOME FORM - LDWWLW - some hard luck stories at home, West ham have conceded 4 goals in the 89th and 90th minutes. Last 2 home matches have seen wins to nil.Has Big Sam addressed this? 3 wins now in last 4.Wins against 11th, 12th and 16th and playing 14th today. West Ham have only really dropped points against top 10.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LWWDWWDWLDWLW - losses have come against 1st , 9th and 10th
GOAL TRENDS - 50/50 overs at home.West Ham are strong starters, scoring 10 in first halfhour - inference they could open the scoring? 5 under 2.5 goals in last 7 matches. 4 1-0's in last 6 matches.
STREAKS - 4 without a draw at home. -7 wins and a 0-0 draw against other than top 10.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Leicester
RECENT AWAY FORM - WDDDDL - sole win away against 21st . Draws killing Leicester's chances.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WLLDWDWDDWLWL - only 2 losses in last 10.
GOAL TRENDS - 6 of the last 8 matches under 2.5 goals. Have kept clean sheets in 5 of the last 7 matches.Have failed to score in 4 of the last 6 matches.Leicester have failed to score in last 3 away matches.
STREAKS - 5 away without a win.No goal scored away in 3.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - I mentioned some weeks ago that this 89th/90th minute concession at home had to be addressed by the Hamsters, and indeed it has.3 wins at home in last 4, and last 2 matches without conceding a goal. Only 3 losses against 1st, 9th and 10th and playing 14th today.Hammers have scored 10 in first half hour - speculate on them opening the scoring? A transitional Leicester without that "money manager" Eriksson who banks another pay off for being shite. No win in last 5 away, 4 draws.Leicester have kept clean sheets in 5 of last 7 and failed to score in 4 of last 6. What to make of that?
For me, it seems West Ham have purged the concession of late goals. A rudderless Leicester could be vulnerable, and West Ham could be speculated on to score the first goal.Goals trends are incongruous - what to make of Leicester's inability to score and ability to keep clean sheets?

3pm - Wigan v Fulham - 2.54 away - poor side Wigan and due deference to Fulham's poor away form that they are priced 2.54 - another match which falls into the category of not interested from me, but as it is a Premiership match I will do the research.
HEAD TO HEADS
Wigan, as my theory goes, lose to established Premiership sides. But then again, established Premiership sides with away records like Fulham's is another matter.

STREAKS - 2 match home losing streak - 3 without a draw at home.Have conceded in all of last 6 matches.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Fulham
RECENT AWAY FORM - LLDL - typically Fulham away.Draw was 0-0 v WBA.Have conceded 2 goals in the 3 other matches.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DLLDDDWLL - sole win at home 6-0 v QPR. The drawitis a hangover from Sparky's days.
GOAL TRENDS - 2 2-0 losses end the over 2,5 goals bias away from home.
STREAKS - 4 without a win away, no goal scored in 2 away.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - a team on a losing streak playing an away team used to losing. What will give today? Under 2.5 goals perhaps the only salvageable angle, but to be fair not a match for me to get involved in.

RECENT OVERALL FORM - WLWWWDWLLD - 9/10 matches over 1.5 goals. Against bottom 9, Werder have won 4 at home and drawn 1-1 in 2 away.
GOAL TRENDS - 9/10 over 1.5 goals and recent 2 goal matches were successful over 2.5 goals trades.This season for Werder has seen 2 unders, 2 overs, 2 unders, 2 overs, 2 unders - very inconsistent. 8 of last 9 matches have seen Werder concede. Have failed to score in only 2 matches this season.
STREAKS - Have conceded in last 5 away. Have scored in last 4 away.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - there does seem to be a congruency with over 2.5 goals.Werder have scored 7 goals in last 1/4 hour of matches which might lean us towards staying in an overs trade until the end of the match.Mainz have conceded 7 goals in last 1/4 hour of matches.

RECENT HOME FORM - LLDW - losses v Man utd and Stoke - very unlucky v Man Utd and Stoke.Draw against Fulham and win v Wolves.
RECENT FORM OVERALL- LLLWLDDWW -only 1 loss in last 6 matches.2-1 losses have come against United and Chelsea. Liverpool, I suspect,are not quite at these 2's levels, which infers that WBA could be hard to beat.
GOAL TRENDS - only 1 match over 2.5 goals at home was the 1-2 loss to Man Utd. WBA have scored 2 goals in last 3 matches.
STREAKS - 2 clean sheets in last 2 home matches.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Liverpool
RECENT AWAY FORM - WLLW - win against Arsenal, losses v Stoke and Spurs, and win against Everton.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DWWLLWWDD - only losses were away to Stoke and Spurs. Now WBA could " do a Stoke " and win 1-0 if on their defensive game.
GOAL TRENDS - the only matches Liverpool failed to score in , they lost.In all the matches Liverpool scored in, they scored first.Last 3 matches under 2.5 goals but all 2 goal matches.Liverpool's 2 clean sheets have come away from home in 2 0-2 wins.
STREAKS - 4 away without a draw.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - WBA's 2 2-1 scorelines against Chelsea and Man Utd may give them a glimmer at home against Liverpool. Yes, this Liverpool forward line is good, and Gerrard has returned.Only 1 loss in last 6 for WBA.And WBA have scored 2 in last 3 matches ( albeit against weaker teams than Liverpool's) 2 clean sheets in last 2 home matches might help WBA to keep Liverpool at bay initially.
The only matches Liverpool failed to score in , they lost. I would look at Stoke's 1-0 win and see this as something WBA are capable of. 1-0 could be a speculative scoreline. WBA have kept 2 clean sheets in last 2 home matches.
Liverpool, though, have scored in all bar the 2 away losses.

RECENT OVERALL FORM - WWDWWDDLDD - 4 draws in last 5 matches. 4 of those 5 matches against top 4 sides home and away so inference is that Ajax should win/lose other matches? Only 1 loss this season
GOAL TRENDS - 80% overs away from home. Have conceded in all matches this season.
STREAKS - no win in 5 must end soon. 4 draws in last 5
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - all head to heads over 2.5 goals is an angle in for neutral bettors.
RODA - no draw at home yet. No draw at all this season an angle in? Jekyll and Hyde side home and away. 4/5 wins at home and 5 losses away. yes I know they were away, but lost to 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th. Potentially vulnerable therefore to better Dutch sides? Roda have conceded in all matches this season.
AJAX- only one loss away -2 draws were both 2-2 scorelines 5-4-5-4 total goals away apart from the 1-0 loss away. All draws for Ajax really against top 4 sides.Only 1 Ajax loss this season. No win in 5 must end soon.
GOAL TRENDS - all head to heads overs. 80% overs overall for Roda, 80% overs away from home for Ajax.Both sides have conceded in every match this season.This is a neutral bet.
If Roda score first ( and they scored 2 v Twente,) I would lay them. Possible sequence to end? Ajax losing sequence could make them a speculative punt.

CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
PSG - apparent big spenders - could this account for change in fortunes?
Even before this big spending, PSG won last 3 head to heads, scoring 2 on each occasion. 5 match winning run at home and overall. Only 1 loss was the first match of the season, and apparently anomolous? Another side who may scupper over 2.5 goals trade with a 2-0 scoreline ( again dependent on the time of the 2nd goal).Caen have lost 4 and beat Lyon 1-0 in the matches they have played against top 6. Sole away loss was 3-2 v Rennes. Potentially vulnerable therefore against top 5.
Caen have scored and conceded in last 5 away matches but 5 of last 7 matches unders.
1-1, 2-0, 2-1 potential correct scores?

HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Barcelona - tough to beat head to heads put to bed by 0-3 Barca win latest. 1st November, Barca have an away match against Plzen which should not really worry Guardiolia. But beware team changes in what is perceived to be an easy win
RECENT HOME FORM - WWWWD - readers of my research last week would not have been surprised by the 0-0 v Sevilla. 5-8-5-3 scored in matches prior to that shut out.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WDWDWWWDW - unbeaten this season. Scored 8 and 5 against 11th and 12th at home, and hosting 13th today.
GOAL TRENDS - Have scored 9 in the first 1/4 hour and 5 in the last 1/4 hour.Overs ended with 0-0 latest at home.7 of 9 matches barca have kept a clean sheet. Have failed to score in only that 0-0
STREAKS - unbeaten this season.No defeat in 5 at home. No goal conceded in 5 at home.No defeat in 9 overall.No goal conceded in 5 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Mallorca
RECENT AWAY FORM - LLDD - last 2 goals scored by Mallorca have both been penalties. Failed to score in the defeats.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WLLLWDDDL - 2 wins both came at home.
GOAL TRENDS - 3/4 matches away under 2.5 goals.Have only kept a clean sheet in 1st match of the season.Have scored and conceded in all of the last 5 matches.Have not played the top 8 away so we cannot gauge how Mallorca set up against the big boys.
STREAKS - have conceded in last 8 away. Have not win in 4 away.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - will Barca really change the team ahead of a match against Plzen? Look out for team news. This should be a return to 5+ goal matches. the 0-0 v Sevilla is not the sign of any concerns, it was foreseen by me last week. mallorca have conceded 4 max historically against Barca, and maybe that is the correct score to start from?

RECENT AWAY FORM - DWDL - not much to go on.Sole win against current 15th
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DDWLDWLW - last 2 wins were at home.Have only played one of the top 7 home and away so we cannot gauge performance against the better teams this season.All wins have come against current bottom 3.

STREAKS - no strong streaks.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - put the 1-1 head to head into context -1st may was the end of the season.Benfica are clearly firing and at home should be capable of 2/3 minimum.All wins for Olhenanse against bottom 3 sides. Another match with one eye on Champions League perhaps? Maybe the manager sees this as a gimme and will rest his best players.All matches for Olhenanse away from home were unders so this does not make a congruent goal trend, but with so few matches played, any trend is very weak.

CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - 1-2 and 0-2 in head to heads away for Real.Any involvement needs team news with Champions League match impending.
1.21 relays a 2/3 goal win but I would watch for team news.
