Dortmund have won the last 2 head to heads .
LEAGUE POSITION - 18th v 2nd - bottom v 2nd top
LEAGUE POSITION - 18th v 2nd - bottom v 2nd top
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Freiburg
RECENT HOME FORM - LWLWLLDD - wins against 4th and 14th - all matches bar 1 have been 1 goal matches or draws at home. Suggestion that Freiburg are tough to beat but likely to eventually capitulate.2 recent draws were score draws which saw Freiburg come from behind. freiburg have conceded first in all bar 2 matches at home .
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LLLWLLLWDDDL - 3 wins this season have come against 4th 14th and 16th. All draws score draws. Have only played top 3 away and lost 7-0 and 4-2.
GOAL TRENDS - 63% overs at home. -generally tight home matches but remember have not played top 3 at home and they seem a cut above the rest. Have conceded 17 goals in the last 1/2 hour of matches. Have only kept a clean sheet in 2 matches this season.
STREAKS - 2 match home drawing streak - 4 at home without a win. Have conceded in last 4 at home and last 8 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Dortmund
RECENT AWAY FORM - LDLWWDWD - WD sequence, if continued, will end with a W today.Have yet to play the bottom 6 away from home.Defeats away have come against 8th and 9th.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - LLWWWWDWWWDD - great unbeaten run - last 3 draws all 1-1 and 2 of them away to 4th and 7th.Have played 6 of bottom 7 at home winning 4 and drawing one 1-1.
GOAL TRENDS - 25% overs away from home. Again, like Freiburg, all bar one match has been a 1 goal-in-it match or a draw. But remember they have not played the bottom 6 away yet. Dortmund have conceded only 3 goals in the first half all season so the inference is that they are likely to score first. Dortmund have failed to score in only 2 matches this season. Dortmund have not conceded more than 1 goal this whole season.
STREAKS - 5 away without defeat. No defeat in 10 overall and have scored in the last 12 overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
18th v 2nd so obviously the logical choice is the away win.
FREIBURG - poor form but all bar one match was a 1 goal in it match which signals eventual capitulation after keeping things very tight? They have played the top 3, but away, losing 7-0 and 4-2.
DORTMUND - are yet to play the bottom 6 away so we cannot gauge likely performance.Overall a great unbeaten run. Have played 6 of the bottom 7 at home , winning 4 and drawing 1.
GOALS - 63% overs for Freiburg. They have conceded 17 in the last half hour which coincides with my idea that they keep it tight but eventually capitulate.They have only kept a clean sheet in 2 matches this season. 25% overs for Dortmund away. Like Freiburg, all bar one match was either a draw or a one goal in it match. Dortmund have scored in the last 12.
CONCLUSION - you would expect an eventual Dortmund win. Reactive traders take note of Freiburg's concession rate late on, if a draw coming into the dying embers of the match. Both teams tend to have 1 -goal-in-it matches so look perhaps at scorelines which reflect that. Incongruent goals trends suggests though this might end with a 0-2 away scoreline? Although keeping up the 1 goal in it theme, perhaps a 0-1, 1-2 scoreline ( creeping to overs for Dortmund despite the trend being very much unders)

230pm - Hamburg vs Augsburg - 4/7 home
HEAD TO HEADS
no head to heads at www.futbol24.com and I think Augsburg are the newly promoted side. Remember the QPR v Chelsea unknown factor when teams meet for the first time.

LEAGUE POSITION - 13th v 17th
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Hamburg
RECENT HOME FORM - DLLLDDWW - losses have come against 3rd, 4th and 10th - the latter was a 3-4 epic with Koln who have a propensity to throw in Keeganesque scorelines.Against bottom sides, it's a 1-1 draw with 14th and 15th, 2-0 win v 16th and playing 17th today.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LLWLWDDDWDWD - drawitis broken by 2 2-0 home wins against 9th and 16th. all bar one of the draws this season have been score draws. all home draws have been score draws.Sole 0-0 was last match against Mainz.Have scored 2 goals against 16th (home) and 18th ( away) and playing 17th ( home) today.
GOAL TRENDS - 38% overs at home.Down in large part to 2 2-0 scorelines and 2 1-1 scorelines.6 of the last 7 matches have been under 2.5 goals coinciding with the large number of draws.Hamburg have kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 4 matches - a concerted effort to end the score draw problem?
STREAKS - 2 match home winning streak. Unbeaten in 8 overall. No goal conceded in 2 home matches and 2 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Augsburg
RECENT AWAY FORM - DLDLWLLL - sole win away was an 88th minute penalty v Mainz.-4 of the away defeats have come against top 10 sides.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DDLLLDDLWDLLLWLW - all bar one of the draws score draws.Against bottom 6 where Hamburg currently reside, it's 1 win, 2 score draws and a 1-0 loss. Not bad form. 3 match losing streak away against 3rd, 7th and 10th. 2 recent wins have come at home.
GOAL TRENDS - 63% overs away from home. Concede an average 2 goals per match away.
STREAKS - 3 match losing streak away. 5 away without a draw.have scored in the last 5 matches overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
No head to heads so remember the QPR v Chelsea syndrome!
HAMBURG - losses at home v 3/4/10th. All home draws were score draws.2 2-0 home wins were against 9th and 16th ( playing 17th today)
AUGSBURG - only 1 away win was an 88th minute penalty against Mainz so very much against a win today.All bar 1 draw this season was a score draw
GOALS - 38% overs at home. 6 of last 7 matches unders. Have kept a clean sheet in 3 of last 4.63% overs away from home for Augsburg
CONCLUSION - incongruent goals trends. What chance another Hamburg clean sheet? Fix your correct scores with that in mind. Augsburg's sole away win via an 88th penalty makes them opposable but how to oppose with value?

3pm - Blackburn vs West Brom - 6/5 home, 9/4 away
HEAD TO HEADS
23.01.2011 | PR | Blackburn Rovers | 2-0 | West Bromwich | |

24.05.2009 | PR | Blackburn Rovers | 0-0 | West Bromwich | |
01.11.2008 | PR | West Bromwich | 2-2 | Blackburn Rovers |
Interesting that Blackburn have yet to lose in the last 4 head to heads, but do note key changes in manager at both clubs in the interim. Blackburn have kept 2 home clean sheets in 2 home matches.
LEAGUE POSITION - 19th v 15th - West Brom could be on the cusp of the top 10 with a win!
LEAGUE POSITION - 19th v 15th - West Brom could be on the cusp of the top 10 with a win!
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Blackburn
RECENT HOME FORM - LLWLLLW - no draw at home yet and a confidence boosting 4-2 win against Swansea - 4 defeats have been either 0-1 or 1-2.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WLLDLDLDLWL - wholly inconsistent.DL sequence ended with a win. In both wins, Blackburn scored 4 and conceded at least 2. All draws this season have been away and have been score draws.
GOAL TRENDS - 71% overs at home and 73% overall. Only 4 matches this season under 2.5 goals.Have conceded in all matches this season.
STREAKS - 7 at home without a draw and have conceded in last 15.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - WEst Brom
RECENT AWAY FORM - LWLDWLD - WLD sequence away at present and if that continues we will see a defeat today.Have yet to play the bottom 4 away but have drawn 13th and 16th
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DDWWLLWLDL - again more inconsistencies.2 of last 3 wins have come at home v 17th and 20th (bottom). The vast majority of defeats have come against the top 8 home and away.
GOAL TRENDS - 71% over 2.5 goals away from home.Have kept only 3 clean sheets this season
STREAKS - have scored and conceded in the last 4 matches overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - as ever the onus is on you to check team news. The workload for me is such that I have to start this research on a Thursday without even the Betfair markets up!!www.premierleague.co.uk is your website for team news/injuries.
BLACKBURN - are actually unbeaten in head to heads . This is 19th v 15th so both in relatively poor early season form.
At home no draw.Latest though saw a spirited 4-2 win over Swansea. Defeats for Blackburn have been either 0-1 or 1-2 so they are likely to be in the mix and I would suggest a defeat would be along the lines of these 2 scorelines.2 wins only this season
WEST BROM - have not played the bottom 4 away yet so we do not have anything to gauge this match by.Have drawn with 13th and 16th.2 wins at home have come against 17th and 20th
GOALS - 71% overs at home. Only 4 matches overall this season are unders.71% overs for West brom away is very congruent.West Brom have only kept 3 clean sheets all season.
CONCLUSION - basing this purely on research, then over 2.5 goals looks congruent. Interesting that Blackburn are unbeaten in recent head to heads. This is a match i would deem a "one off" - all to play for even this early on in the season so there may be a degree of unpredictability here.

LEAGUE POSITION - 12th v 10th and Everton have played one match less.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Everton
RECENT HOME FORM - LDWLLWL - no draw in 5.3 of the defeats have come against top 8 sides with the exception a 0-1 loss to QPR.Wins against 17th and 18th.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - LLLWLLWWLL - no draw recently. 3 of last 4 losses were 1-0. Indeed 3 home defeats have been 0-1. Wins have all come against bottom 7 sides.
GOAL TRENDS - 43% overs at home. Have conceded in all home matches. Last 3 matches under 2.5 goals.have only kept a clean sheet in 2 matches this season. Last 2 matches both 1-0 defeats.
STREAKS - 5 at home without a draw, 11 overall. Have conceded in the last 7 matches.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Norwich
RECENT AWAY FORM - DLWLDLL - only one win away from home was a 1-2 v Bolton.All 4 defeats have come against top 9 sides, indeed 3 against 1st, 2nd, 3rd.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WWLWDDLLWLW - last 4 wins came at home. Have beaten 11th and 13th , albeit at home ( playing 12th today).
GOAL TRENDS - 57% overs away from home. Have conceded in all matches this season. Last 6 matches over 2.5 goals. total goals 6,5,3,3,6,6 in those matches. have only failed to score in 2 matches this season which hints at a 1-1 scoreline minimum?
STREAKS - 4 away without a win. 5 overall without a draw.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
12th v 10th but Everton have a game in hand.
EVERTON - no draw in 5 at home. 3 losses have come against top 8. Have beaten 17th and 18th.No recent draw overall. 3 out of 4 losses have been 1-0. All wins for Everton have come against the bottom 7 which might suggest Norwich as the value punt ( even if they might eventually lose?). 11 without a draw for Everton. They have conceded in the last 7.
NORWICH
LDLL latest away from home. 1 win away was a 1-2 v Bolton.
GOALS - 43% overs for Everton at home. They have conceded in all home matches. Have only kept 2 clean sheets all season.57% overs away from home for Norwich. They have conceded in all matches. Last 6 matches have been overs with total goals 6,5,3,3,6,6.
CONCLUSION - with Everton conceding in last 7 and in all home matches and with Norwich conceding in all matches , this has both teams scoring written all over it. Everton have only beaten bottom sides so the value might be Norwich here in the hope they score first.Despite Everton's relatively poor goals trends at home, perhaps we can take our cues from the goals totals in Norwich's last 6 matches 6,5,3,3,6,6 and chance over 2.5 goals. 11 without a draw for Everton suggests we could lay the draw for trading purposes.

LEAGUE POSITION - 14th v bottom
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Fulham - how will they have been affected by a 2-0 lead evaporating and throwing them out of the Europa League.
RECENT HOME FORM - DDDWLLW - losses at home, both 1-3 , v Everton and Tottenham. Lucky to have got away with a 2-2 draw v City. Wins against Liverpool and QPR.Have only played one of the current bottom 6 at home, drawing 1-1 with Blackburn.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - DDDWLLWLDDWL - inconsistent overall. Only 3 wins all season.
GOAL TRENDS - 57% over 2.5 goals -5 of the last 6 matches under 2.5 goals. Any goals scored in the last 4 matches have all come in the 2nd half so perhaps a focus on defending for Fulham?Only a 1/3rd of matches this season over 2.5 goals.
STREAKS - 4 without a draw at home. Have scored in the last 6 home matches.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Bolton.
RECENT AWAY FORM - WLLWLLL - no draw away from home. Wins have come against QPR and Wigan, where do Fulham fit into this?4 of 5 defeats saw Bolton concede 3, the other loss saw them concede 2.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - LLLLWLLWLLLL - no draw this season and wins against Stoke, Wigan and QPR suggest Bolton likely to get something against teams I describe as " Championship-like".Difficult to fathom from the away performances how Fulham fit into the equation.
GOAL TRENDS - 100% overs away from home. All bar a 0-2 loss v Everton over 2.5 goals.Have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 matches.
STREAKS - 7 away without a draw, 15 overall. Have conceded in last 6 away and last 4 overall. Current losing streak 4 overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
Head to Heads have seen 2 0-0's and a 3-0. what is it to be this time?
Bolton are bottom
FULHAM - at home, losses against Everton and Spurs. Wins against Liverpoor and QPR. Have only played one of the bottom 6 at home, drawing 1-1 with Blackburn. Only 3 wins all season for Fulham quite a surprise.
BOLTON - no draw away , indeed no draw overall this season. This will end eventually of course and against a team with only 3 wins this season, what do you think?4 out of 5 of Bolton's losses saw them conceding 3. Only 2 wins away . 7 away without a draw.
GOALS - 57% overs at home.5 of the last 6 matches though have been unders. The goals scored in Fulham's last 4 matches came in the 2nd half.100% over 2.5 goals away. have failed to score in 2 of the last 3 matches.
CONCLUSION - these are 2 poor teams, both with 3 wins to their names this season. A chance of over 2.5 goals with Fulham just peaking over 50%. No draw for Bolton yet this season. Do we lay the draw until they end up drawing? I would back the 0-0 here despite the overs trend initially in the hope this becomes a "must not lose" match.

LEAGUE POSITION - 7th v 11th
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Newc
RECENT HOME FORM - DWWDWWL - started to meet top 5 of late and that halted the unbeaten run. Have beaten 12th, 14th, 18th adn 19th and playing 11th today. Conceded in 3 of those 4 wins.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WWDWWWLDLL - bad run coincided with meetings v Man City, United, and Chelsea, ( and Norwich!)
GOAL TRENDS - 71% overs at home. Key player clearly Demba Ba up front. If he fires, Newcastle tend to get something out of the game.8 of last 10 matches over 2.5 goals. Have failed to score in only 3 matches this season.
STREAKS - 3 at home without a draw. Have conceded in last 6 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Swansea
RECENT AWAY FORM - LLLLDDL - no win away yet. 0-0 draw with Liverpool an ideal away tactic.All bar one loss this season has come away.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - LWLDWDLDLW - wholly inconsistent - recent DL sequence ended with a win. 4 defeats and a 0-0 draw against top 7, and Newcastle are clinging on in 7th.
GOAL TRENDS - 71% overs away from home , conceding an average 2.57 away.
STREAKS - 7 away without a win.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
7th v 11th
NEWCASTLE - wins against 12/14/18/19th. Overall recently LDLL against City/United/Chelsea/Norwich
SWANSEA - no win away yet.Overall, 4 defeats and a 0-0 against the top 7, and Newcastle are holding on to the top 7..
GOALS - Newcastle - 71% overs at home.8 of the last 10 matches over 2.5 goals. have failed to score in only 3 this season. 71% over 2.5 goals away for Swansea.
CONCLUSION - over 2.5 goals looks a goer here if the form continues. Team news - if Demba Ba is missing for Newcastle, then beware. A feeling Newcastle might end the losing run they have endured largely at the hands of the big boys.

GOALS - Newcastle - 71% overs at home.8 of the last 10 matches over 2.5 goals. have failed to score in only 3 this season. 71% over 2.5 goals away for Swansea.
CONCLUSION - over 2.5 goals looks a goer here if the form continues. Team news - if Demba Ba is missing for Newcastle, then beware. A feeling Newcastle might end the losing run they have endured largely at the hands of the big boys.

Irrelevant head to heads.
08.01.2011 | Cup | West Ham | 2-0 | Barnsley FC | |
03.01.2009 | Cup | West Ham | 3-0 | Barnsley FC |
LEAGUE POSITION - 2nd v 12th - hammers need a win to keep up with Saints.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - West ham
RECENT HOME FORM - LDWWLWWDWL - 2 of the Hammer's home defeats were 0-1and the most recent defeat 1-2 to 15th placed Burnley saw West Ham score first in the 2nd half. Have not played 10th-13th inclusive at home but against 8th/9th and 14th at home, scored 4-3-3
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WLDWLWWDWWWWLL - recent losses against Burnley at home and 3-0 away v reading with 2 last 10 minute matches.
GOAL TRENDS - 60% overs at home. 4 of the last 5 matches over 2.5 goals includes 2 defeats. What chance a 3rd defeat on the trot for the Hammers. It seems unlikely.
STREAKS - 2 at home without a draw. Have scored and conceded in the last 2 at home. No draw in 6 overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - barnsley
RECENT AWAY FORM - DWDDDLLLWW - mixed bag away really. As West Ham hit a 2 match losing streak overall, Barnsley hit a 2 match away winning streak against 6th and 17th . Have only played one of the top 5 away losing 5-3 to Cardiff. Losses away to 3rd, 7th and 16th.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DDDWLWLLWLWWWWL - a run of 5 draws ended and now there is a run of 12 without a draw. have played 3 of the top 4 home and away , losing 0-1 at home to 1st, 5-3 away to 3rd and 1-3 at home to 4th
GOAL TRENDS - 40% overs away from home. 7 of the last 12 matches over 2.5 goals with the exceptions all 2-0 wins or losses with 4 of those 2-0's successful over 2.5 goals trades.Have scored and conceded in the last 4 matches overall. Have kept a clean sheet in only 4 matches this season.
STREAKS - 5 away without a draw, 12 overall. Have scored and conceded in the last 4 matches overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
2nd v 12th, must win for West Ham. On 2 match losing streak. what are the chances of a 3rd consecutive defeat, and at home.
WEST HAM - scored 4-3-3 v 8th/9th and 14th at home. Recent losing run v Burnley and Reading. 2 match losing run , what chance a 3rd ?
BARNSLEY - 2 match winning streak away v 6th and 17th. Only played 1 of the top 5 away losing 5-3 to cardiff. Other away losses v 3rd/7th/16th.Overall played 3 of the top 4 home and away. losing 0-1 at home to 1st, 5-3 away to 3rd and 1-3 home to 4th. 12 without a draw for Barnsley
GOALS - 60% overs at home.4 of the last 5 matches over 2.5 goals. 40% overs away for Barnsley.7 of the last 12 matches over 2.5 goals with the rest all 2-0 scorelines and 4 of those successful over 2.5 goals trades. Have kept a clean sheet in only 4 this season. Barnsley have scored and conceded in their last 4 matches.
CONCLUSION - I would speculate on West Ham avoiding an unwelcome hatrick of defeats today.Over 2.5 goals might have legs today given 11 of Barnsley's last 12 matches were successful over 2.5 goals trades. This is a must win for hammers with Southampton 3 points ahead.
2nd v 12th, must win for West Ham. On 2 match losing streak. what are the chances of a 3rd consecutive defeat, and at home.

3pm - Hearts v Dunfermline - 8/13 home
HEAD TO HEADS
hearts should replicate last head to head.
15.10.2011 | PR | Dunfermline | 0-2 | Hearts FC | |
27.07.2010 | CF | Dunfermline | 3-1 | Hearts FC | |
23.09.2009 | LC | Hearts FC | 2-1 | Dunfermline |
LEAGUE POSITION - 5th v 12th of 12.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Hearts
RECENT HOME FORM - LWWWWLLWL - no draw at home for hearts but a run of 3 defeats in last 4 matches. 4 defeats against top 7 at home and easy wins against bottom 5, 2-0, 3-0, 2-1, 2-0 gives us a good gauge to likely scoreline ( and remember the 0-2 in last head to heads as recently as October). this makes the 8/13 rather attractive too.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WDWLWWLLDLWLL - 5 losses in last 7 but remember the teams they have been playing are top 7. Playing bottom today.
GOAL TRENDS - 33% overs at home and 17% overs overall suggest a tight win and a 2-0 max win .3 clean sheets in 4 wins against bottom 5 could be replicated today.Only 3 matches overs this season but 2 of the last 3 overs. Have failed to score in 5 of the last 7, so a 0-0 cover might be in order, and we begin to see now why 8/13 and not shorter.
STREAKS - 9 at home without a draw. Have conceded in the last 4 at home.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Dunfermline - worth following the bottom side to see if we can oppose them again.
RECENT AWAY FORM - WWLLDWLLL - 3 wins have all been 0-1 wins against 4th, 7th and 11th. All 5 defeats away over 2.5 goals suggests if you fancy Hearts, Dunfermline MIGHT , just might, score a goal as they did in the 2-1 away defeats to Celtic and Rangers.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - LDLLLDLWLLDL - only 1 win recently was a 0-1 away win against Hibs. 3 of the last 4 defeats have been 2-1's , away from home and in all 3 matches, Dunfermline were 2-0 down .
GOAL TRENDS - 56% overs away from home. Last 4 matches over 2.5 goals. Last 4 matches home and away Dunfermline scored and conceded.
STREAKS - 3 match losing streak away. Have scored in the last 5 away, last 7 overall and conceded in last 3 away and last 4 overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS - 2-0 seems to pervade here, I would look to 2-0, 2-1, 0-0 correct scores in the hope this 2 goal scoreline occurs again,
3pm - Rangers v Inverness CT - 1/6 home
HEAD TO HEADS
Rangers not lost in last 6 head to heads, but the influence of Butcher is seen in 0-1, 1-1, 1-1, 1-0 until Rangers broke that sequence with a 0-2 away win.
13.08.2011 | PR | Inverness CT | 0-2 | Glasgow Rangers | |
18.01.2011 | PR | Glasgow Rangers | 1-0 | Inverness CT | |
11.12.2010 | PR | Inverness CT | 1-1 | Glasgow Rangers | |

04.03.2009 | PR | Glasgow Rangers | 0-1 | Inverness CT | |
04.01.2009 | PR | Inverness CT | 0-3 | Glasgow Rangers |
LEAGUE POSITION - 1st v 10th - 4 points clear of Celtic so not really a must win for rangers.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Rangers
RECENT HOME FORM - DWWWWDWDW - unbeaten at home. draws have come against 4th, 5th and 8th. Wins v 9th 2-0, 11th 1-0, and 12th 2-1. Likely to be another tough win for Rangers against 10th.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WWWWDWWWDLWW - recent loss an 82nd minute Kilmarnock 1-0 home win. the problems occur when teams shut out Rangers, the draw recently a 0-0 and the loss a 1-0;.against bottom 4, 7 wins out of 7, ( 8th match played today) and 5 clean sheets. Rangers have only conceded more than one goal against celtic. So that is a cue as regards possible scoreline ( Inverness likely to score 1 goal only , if indeed they score)
GOAL TRENDS - 33% overs throughout the season - only 1/3rd of matches are over 2.5 goals . 6 2-0's don't help over 2.5 goals Rangers score most goals, 12, in the 61st to 75th minute so in play traders take note if 0-0 coming up to the hour mark. 11 clean sheets this season for Rangers.
STREAKS - 9 at home without defeat. 2 match winning streak overall.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Inverness CT
RECENT AWAY FORM - - LDLLLLWLW - wins against 6th and 8th latest away. Lost 2-0, 3-0, 2-0 against 2nd, 3rd , 4th a good guide as to what the ideal should be for Rangers at home.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - LLWLDLWLLWL - all draws this season have been score draws.
GOAL TRENDS - 78% over 2.5 goals away from home. have conceded in every match this season. 5 of the last 6 matches over 2.5 goals. the exception was a 0-2 v Celtic which was arguably a successful over 2.5 goals match with a 2nd goal in the 72nd minute.Average 2.33 conceded away.
STREAKS -7 away without a draw, 6 overall. Have conceded in last 18 matches overall.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
LDW at home in head to heads 0-1, 1-1, 1-0 means we cannot discount an unders game when Terry Butcher's team come to town.
RANGERS - unbeaten at home. Draws against 4th, 5th, 8th.Wins against 9th 2-0, 11th 1-0 and 12th 2-1 and playing 10th today. Overall only 1 loss recently was an 82nd minute Killy 0-1. DL recently for Rangers saw them kept from scoring.Against the bottom 4, it's 7 wins from 7 with 5 clean sheets. Rangers have only conceded more than one goal against Celtic.
INVERNESS - away wins v 6th and 8th . Lost 2-0, 3-0, 2-0 against 2nd, 3rd 4th. All draws overall have been score draws.
GOALS - 33% overs includes 6 2-0's. 11 clean sheets for Rangers this season. 78% over 2.5 goals for Inverness and have conceded in all matches this season. 5 of last 6 overs.
CONCLUSION - we cannot get away from the tight matches that pervade the head to heads, apart from 2-0 win recently. 6 2-0's for Rangers this season and Inverness losing 2-0, 3-0, adn 2-0 against 2nd/3rd /4th hint perhaps at another win to nil for Rangers potentially to nil. It is hit and miss re over 2.5 goals.

LEAGUE POSITION - 18th v 3rd - or 3rd bottom v 3rd top. chelsea must win to take advantage of City's slip up last week. They are precariously clinging on to the title challenge.
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Wigan
RECENT HOME FORM - DWLLLDL - draws against Norwich and Blackburn and win against QPR. 2 of those teams were promoted.
Losses against 4th and 5th and playing 3rd today.

AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Chelsea
RECENT AWAY FORM - DWLWLWW - only 2 defeats away against Man Utd and with 9 men against QPR. A recent 2-1 home win against city must really be the shot in the arm Chelsea needed.Have played 2 of bottom 3 away, 0-1 win v Blackburn and 1-5 win v Bolton.

530pm - Panathnaikos v Asteras Tripolis - 1/5 home
HEAD TO HEADS
Check out the traditional Greek defensive head to heads. Immediately scream at laying 1/5 shots unless recent form supercedes historical head to heads.

HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Pana
RECENT HOME FORM - WWWW - have scored 3,3,3,4 at home and conceded in 3 of those matches. So no sign with recent home form of a 1-0, 0-0.
RECENT FORM OVERALL - WWDWWWWDWLW - recent loss away to 13th a sign of potential vulnerability against 11th ( albeit at home).
GOAL TRENDS - 100% overs at home, albeit only 4 matches. Have scored in all matches and kept a clean sheet in only 2 matches this season. All bar 3 matches over 2.5 goals , and they were 2 goal matches.

AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Asteras Tripolis
RECENT AWAY FORM - LLLLL - 4 losses without scoring. All losses came away. Conceded 2,3,2,1,3 in those away losses.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - DLLDDLWLWLW - WL sequence , if continuing, signals a Loss in this match.3 wins have come at home , 2 of them 1-0 and the other 2-0 - beat Olympiakos 2-0 at home recently - is this a nudge for Pana to be a little careful?
GOAL TRENDS - 40% overs away from home. Have conceded in all away matches. Kept a clean sheet in last 3 home and failed to score in last 3 away. Have failed to score in last 6 away.
STREAKS - 5 match losing streak away.

ASTERAS
LLLLL - 4 losses were without scoring. . Asteras conceded 2,3,2,1,3,in defeats. Overall WLWLWL lately.3 wins at home were 1-0's and a 2-0 v Olympiakos - yes at home but Pana should take note.

CONCLUSION - conflicts between tight head to heads and current goalscoring for Pana in what is admittedly a small sample of home matches. Can we take recent form to supercede head to heads given pana's scoring at home and Asteras's concession rate away? Tough to call. No congruency here.

Evian have been consistent in the goals conceded away v 5th, 6th, 8th. 2 or 3 goals seem to pervade here so base your correct scores on that.
Always a chance teams cancel each other out with 4th v 1st.

RECENT HOME FORM - LDDDWLD - losses against 1st and bottom. Sole win was a 1-0 v chelsea which I think is not representative of how we expect them to perform at home against top 5 sides. 3 of the 4 draws have been 1-1's. the 2-3 loss to city saw a very tight match ,unexpectedly so. All QPR matches apart from the 0-4 loss to Bolton, have been 1 goal in it games. This might hint that QPR will display a predominantly defensive bent here.

GOAL TRENDS - 63% overs away from home. 3 of last 7 overs ended a strong consistent run of over 2.5 goals matches. Again a sign that AZ might be wilting? That said, AZ kept a clean sheet in 6 of their last 7 matches, the exception a very anomolous 5-1 away loss to Heerenveen - where did that come from? AZ have only failed to score in 2 matches this season.

RECENT FORM OVERALL - DDLDLLWWLW - great recent run All 3 wins to nil and only 3 wins this season, 2 of which were 0-1 and away. Now for me Inter should usually be in the top 5 at least, and against top 4, Cesena have lost 2 at home and 2 away. Just a hunch.

LEAGUE POSITION - 9th v 6th
HOME TEAM - -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Villa
RECENT HOME FORM - WDDWLWL - losses against Man Utd 0-1 and West Brom 1-2 not too bad. Wins have come against 10th, 18th and 19th.

GOAL TRENDS - 43% overs at home. Only 1 of the last 4 matches over 2.5 goals. Villa have actually failed to score in 3 of last 4 matches away to Spuds, in a 0-0 away draw with swansea, and the 0-1 loss to Man utd
STREAKS - 4 at home without a draw - a concerted effort I think by management to end the drawitish that plagued early season. Have conceded in last 3 at home.
AWAY TEAM - past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team - Liverpool
RECENT AWAY FORM - WLLWWWL - no draw away .Defeats against Spurs, 4-0, Stoke 1-0 and Fulham 1-0 tells you all you need to know about likely Villa tactics. Wins against 3rd, 5th, 12th and 15th and 3 of those wins were with clean sheets.
RECENT OVERALL FORM - WWDDWDWDLW - recent loss was the 1-0 v Fulham away.
GOAL TRENDS - 29% overs away from home. 27% overs overall - 8 of the last 9 matches under 2.5 goals.
STREAKS - 7 away without a draw. Have conceded in the last 2 away.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS
3pm - Tottenham v Sunderland - 2/5 home
HEAD TO HEADS
New management for Sunderland makes this a match I would rather have a watching brief on. I would instinctually side with Spurs here with their full first team out . The arrival of new management could bring a surprise so no research for me.
