Reviewing week #1's Value Bets

Before posting the bets for Week 2, let's review what happened on the opening weekend and see how we went.

In England we took four bets and had one success - as FULHAM did win 1-0 at Everton. However, Brentford could not beat Tottenham (drew 2-2) while Aston Villa were thumped 1-5 at Newcastle, and Luton conceded alte on to lose 1-4 at Brighton. So just one win from four and 3.30 returned for a small loss.

In Spain it was a similar story. We did get CADIZ to beat Alaves at around 2.20, but while Getafe @ 7.50 gave it a good go to beat Barcelona they could only draw 0-0. We had money on Villarreal v Real Betis finishing level only to be undone by a 90+7th minute winner and LAs Palmas draw with Mallorca when we had them to win. Do one win from four, and despite some good chances only a 2.20 return from four units.

Sometimes that's the way it goes when backing underdogs or value results, we don't expect every bet to be a winner, but we are aiming for profits each week - so we will redouble our efforts this week.

Good luck with your punts.
