Corrections And Selections

I had a couple of errors in the first edition of the FTL table - rather embarrassingly, the first concerned the table topping Extended HT0-0 bets which I had reported as up by 11 points. As Frieder pointed out, this was incorrect. The 11 points is actually the profit for backing ALL five outcomes (Match Odds Draw, U1.5, U2.5, U3.5 and HT00) not just the HT00 which should have been 4.45 points.

Jon, aka Talkbet, showed integrity, and corrected my winner for him on Everton to beat Manchester United by pointing out that he had in fact gone for the draw.

Tips for this week

Tony (Currently 10th, +0.32, 5.33%) goes for lays of Barcelona (1.25 @ Osasuna), Real Madrid (1.37 @ Getafe) and Bayern Munich (1.43 @ Greuther Furth), with Draws for Chelsea v Newcastle United (4.6) and Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion (4.6).

Neil (15th, -2) goes for the draws at Norwich City v Queens Park Rangers (3.5), Southampton v Wigan Athletic (3.65) and Chelsea v Newcastle United (4.6).

Griff (18th, -9) is hoping for a change in fortune, going with draws in the following matches:

Southampton v Wigan Athletic (3.65)
Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion (4.6)
Nice v Lille (3.25)
Rennes v Bastia (3.35)
Troyes v Lorient (3.2)
Liverpool v Manchester City (3.45)

Jon (Talkbet)(16th, -4), and I hope to enter his results correctly this week, goes for the following three selections:

Bristol City (3.1) v Cardiff City, Oldham Athletic (2.92) v Stevenage and Udinese (4.3) @ Fiorentina.
