CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
HEAD TO HEADS In nearly all head to heads , both sides have scored.Ajax have enjoyed visits to NEC
LEAGUE POSITION - 15th v 5th - Ajax well off the pace at the top in a league they usually dominate with PSV and Twente.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - NEC -
RECENT HOME FORM - WWLLLWL - no draw at home. have only played one of the top 7 at home and lost. Played 4 of top 10 at home and lost all.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LLLLLLWWL - only draw came in 1st match of the season. REcent wins against 6th and 12th.
GOAL TRENDS - 57% overs at home. Only 3 of last 9 matches over 2.5 goals. Have only kept a clean sheet in 2 matches this season.
STREAKS - 7 at home without a draw, 12 overall. have conceded in the last 6 matches.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Ajax
RECENT AWAY FORM - WDWDLWL - losses against 7th and 12th, but scored 4-3-4-4-2 away against bottom 9 sides, where NEC are. Consistent goal scoring.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DDLDDWLD - woeful recent form -5 score draws -all 6 score draws this season - 5 of them against top 9.
GOAL TRENDS - 86% overs away and 77% overall.
STREAKS - 3 away without a draw, have scored in the last 5 matches overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
In head to heads, Ajax have scored 4-4-2 away at NEC last 3 meetings.
NEC - no draw at home, Only played one of top 7 and lost. Played 4 of top 10 at home and lost. Only draw came 1st match of season overall.. recently beat 6th and 12th.
AJAX - woeful recent form overall. But have scored 4-3-4-4-2 away v bottom 9
GOALS - 57% overs for NEC, only 3 of last 9 overs, and kept a clean sheet in only 2 matches this season. For Ajax, 86% overs away, 77% overall, down to 6 score draws, 5 of which came against top 9.
CONC - do we trust Ajax who are on a very poor run of overall form? Well, they have scored 4-3-4-4-2 away to bottom 9 ( albeit not winning all matches), so if we don't trust them, we could trust goals perhaps? 6 score draws mean Ajax are vulnerable. NEC are vulnerable v top 10 at home, losing all 4 played so far. Neutral goals may be the call, although you suspect Ajax could lead at some stage making a back to lay trade an option?
130pm -
Swansea v Aston Villa - 2.28 home - due deference to Swansea that they are favs against Aston Drawa, sorry I mean Villa.
HEAD TO HEADS none - and be careful when teams have not met before ( QPR v Chelsea anyone?)
LEAGUE POSITION - 14th v 10th -
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Swansea
RECENT HOME FORM - DDWWWL - sole loss 0-1 v Man Utd.Man Utd only 1 of the top 11 encountered at home, Villa will be 2nd. Positive results against bottom 9.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LDDLWLWLDWDL - only 3 wins, all at home, v Stoke, West Brom and Bolton, all Championship style sides. Against top 10 overall, have lost lost 5 and drawn 0-0 with Liverpool.
GOAL TRENDS - 33% overs at home. Down to a very tight home defence.Last 2 matches unders but 6 of last 8 overs.
STREAKS - 4 at home without a draw.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Villa
RECENT AWAY FORM - DDDLDL - draw specialists would rather turn them to wins.Losses against 1st and 3rd, and draws v 8th, 11th, 15th and 16th.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DWDDDDWLLDWL - you can almost see the mentality of the manager in trying to halt the early draws, but expected wins have turned to 3 losses and the goal count has increased dramatically.
GOAL TRENDS - 50/50 overs throughout.
STREAKS - 6 away without a win, have conceded in last 5.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - no head to heads can sometimes produce a shock results
SWANS - sole loss at home 0-1 v Man Utd. That was only game against top 11 at home.. Against top 10 overall, it's 5 losses and 0-0 draw with Liverpool
VILLA - no win away , 4 draws, lost to 1st and 3rd and draw v 8/11/15/16. Tried to end early draw sequence with WLLDWL - huge increase in goals per match but 3 losses in new tactic.
GOALS - 33% overs for Swans and tight defence at home, last 2 unders but 6 of last 8 overs.
50/50 for Villa
CONC - with the kind of firepower Villa have, you expect them to be in a lot better shape. 4 of last 5 matches overs in search of a cure for drawitis. Will that continue against Swansea who kept out the United firepower until a single goal.
Value in the 0-0 back to lay trade ,and the hope of a 1-0 home win, which could be a good price and give us an interest until/if Villa score.
Unders looks a tradeable call but backing unders in a team featuring Darren Bent just doesn't feel logical! A recent flurry of overs for Villa down to a need to end those draws. It might come about, but more in the 2nd half? Villa have conceded 4-2-2-2-2 in last 5 matches.
HEAD TO HEADS
No 2011 h2h
LEAGUE POSITION - 12th v 16th -Inter played a game less.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Siena
RECENT HOME FORM - LWWWD - sole loss v Juve. Wins against 10th and bottom and 2nd bottom questions reliability of form, particularly as Inter are in a false position with their poor start to the season.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - DLDWLDWDWLD - very inconsistent.No win away.
GOAL TRENDS - 60% overs at home, but remember they have played mostly bottom 10 sides.Last 3 matches overs but season long general trend is unders. Have scored and conceded in last 4 matches.
STREAKS - 4 at home without defeat. Have scored in last 4 at home.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - INTER - for me in a false position given the squad.
RECENT AWAY FORM - LLWLD - all bar one match over 2.5 goals .
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WLLWDLW - still inconsistent -recent loss though was 1-2 v league leaders -2 wins have recently come at home with a 1-1 away draw v Atalanta, so some signs of recovery?
GOAL TRENDS - 80% overs away from home - have scored and conceded in all away matches.Only 3 matches unders and one of those was a successful over 2.5 goals trade.
STREAKS - have scored and conceded in last 5.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - not a match to dwell on for me, why? Because I feel Inter are in a false position due to early bad management. They will come good at some point. If you place faith in Inter, then you will get value odds today against Siena, a team they usually earmark for success. A bias towards goals, I would instinctually side with Inter in the hope they lead at some stage, but I am not going to do my usual summation because I feel they have underperformed albeit with the same group of high class players.
HEAD TO HEADS
The goal trend is there but not as emphatic as usual Bremen games.

STREAKS - 6 at home without a draw, have conceded in the last 8 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Stuttgart
RECENT AWAY FORM - DLWDWL - inconsistent - have only played 1 of the top 9 away and that was a 1-1 so tells us nothing about playing the better teams away.Losses against 10th and 16th.Wins against 15th and 17th in a league of 18 .
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WDLLWWLWWDDLW - 3 of last 4 overs. 3 of last 6 matchs 2-0's and 1-1 and could conceivably have been successful over 2.5 goals. matches.

CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
HEAD TO HEADS
LEAGUE POSITION - 1st v 12th - top v bottom.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Copenhagen
RECENT HOME FORM - DWWWWDLW - sole loss against 2nd in the league. Challenge table at soccerstats not completed so I cannot at a glance check performance against bottom sides.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WWWWWDLLWWL - a very poor run by Copenhagen standards, sees losses v 2nd, 6th and 10th. -only one of those losses at home,recent draw against 5th.
GOAL TRENDS - 50/50 overs throughout the season so dependent on opponents. Last 4 matches over 2.5 goals. Recent 3-0 home win against 11th could be used to gauge possible scoreline v 12th.
STREAKS - have scored in the last 8 at home, no draw in the last 5 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Koge
-
RECENT AWAY FORM - LLLLDLL - sole draw was a 0-0 v 9th and emphasises what a straightforward afternoon it should be for the home side. We have to home some goal angles show themselves to enhance the match odds. 3-3-2-5-0-2-2 -2 conceded away is a starting point,and 5 matches without conceding.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - LLLLLWLLLDLLDLLD - sole win against 7th. Only 3 draws this season.
GOAL TRENDS - 62.5% overs all through the season.Only 3 of the last 8 over 2.5 goals down mostly to 2-0 scorelines ( losses). Have kept a clean sheet in only 1 match this season.

4pm -
Liverpool v Man City - 2.7 away - again knee jerk reaction and this is a massive price for Man City, clearly the best side in the Premiership, and is a gross over reaction to Liverpool beating the Chelsea Pensioners.
HEAD TO HEADS
This is a new post transfer City so head to heads don't really count.
LEAGUE POSITION - 7th v 1st
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Liverpool - Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is likely to keep changes to a minimum for the visit of Manchester City to Anfield on Sunday.
Defender Jamie Carragher, who returned to the squad for last week's win at Chelsea but could only make the bench, may have to settle for a place among the substitutes again.
Winger Stewart Downing will be pushing for a recall having been dropped last week after starting the first 11 league matches but captain Steven Gerrard is still not fit to return from an ankle infection.
Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Enrique, Kuyt, Adam, Lucas, Downing, Suarez, Bellamy, Doni, Kelly, Carragher, Spearing, Rodriguez, Henderson, Carroll.
RECENT HOME FORM - DWWDDD - no loss yet at home. Only beaten 17th and 18th and still conceded in those matches.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LLWWDDWDW - unbeaten in 7, and the 0-0 draw with Swansea at home really was poor.Most recent wins away v West Brom and Chelsea and the latter , well, Chelsea are not quite what they were. Have beaten Chelsea, Arsenal and Everton away from home.
GOAL TRENDS - 33% overs at home down to 4 draws, 3 1-1's and a 0-0.
STREAKS - 3 match drawing streak at home - 6 without defeat at home
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - City - Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli has recovered from a fever ahead of Sunday's Barclays Premier League trip to Liverpool.
The Italian was sick during Tuesday's Champions League defeat at Napoli but scored City's goal and played the full 90 minutes.
City have no other injury concerns following their trip to Italy but Carlos Tevez remains out of the first-team picture.
Manchester City: Hart, Pantilimon, Richards, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, K Toure, Savic, Clichy, Kolarov, Nasri, Milner, Barry, De Jong, Y Toure, Johnson, Silva, Balotelli, Aguero, Dzeko.
RECENT AWAY FORM - WWDWWW - 0-2 up v Fulham.Have already beaten 2nd and 3rd emphatically away from home.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - all wins bar the fulham draw
GOAL TRENDS - all overs bar the Everton home match which ended 2-0.City have scored 4-3-5-3-2-2-4-4-6-3-3-3 this season.
STREAKS - 12 without defeat. Have scored in last 12, conceded in last 5.7 match winning streak.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - 2.7 away for City is a huge price and one anyone should logically take surely?
LPOOL - unbeaten at home, 3 match draw sequence. beat 17th and 18th and still conceded in those matches. Unbeaten in 7 overall. beat Chelsea away, but says more about chelsea than Liverpool.
33% home overs down to 4 draws, 3 1-1's
CITY - all wins bar 2-2 v Fulham - 0-2 up. All overs bar 2-0 home win v Everton.
4-3-5-3-2-2-4-4-6-3-3 scored this season.
And you are offering 2,7. I will take that Sir! Even though Liverpool are unbeaten at home, with City's record and personnel, this is a logical choice.
HEAD TO HEADS
