Spanish Cup

An intriguing match up at the Bernabeu tonight as the Galitico's of Real Madrid try to overturn a 4-0 first leg deficit against lowly Alcorcon.

Some interesting betting opportunities tonight, that make me wish I had a massive bankroll.

For novelty value I have had a couple of quid on correct score markets. 9-0 (175/1) and 10-0 (500/1) with Paddy Power. These prices have long since gone.

More seriously though, you have to fancy Real to get through this tie and a trade on over 4.5 goals at 1.88 looks like good value.

Hopefully I can find a live stream to keep an eye on my investment

Liverpool fail again

Oh dear, the crisis at Liverpool deepened tonight after they cheated their way to a point against lowly Birmingham at Anfield.

David Ngog conned the ref into giving a penalty to gift Liverpool an equaliser in the second half, but once again the transfer policy and team selection of Rafa Benitez is under the spotlight.

My small trading loss on the game is overshadowed by the mess that is Liverpool FC.

From the boardroom to the Managers office there is something seriously amiss at Anfield and unless something is sorted in the next 2-3 weeks Liverpool could be facing meltdown.

4th place is now the target for Benitez, and the incompetence of others may leave the door open for the Reds to scrape into the Champions League qualifiers next season.

If they fail to make it, expect a mass exodus of top talent - Torres, Reina and Mascherano could well be playing in Spain next year.

Liverpool back in it

Dodgy penalty by the sounds of it and not even at the Kop end!

Price has now collapsed to 2.08, hope you were following the Football Trader - stay invested
