Rise of the stalemate

0-0 draws are the bain of many exchange traders and spread bettors lives across the world.

Betting on something not to happen is much less fun than cheering on goals as they fly in during exciting attacking matches, but the dreaded goalless draw is on the rise in the English Premier League.

27 top flight matches have finshed goalless this season, already more than the whole of last season.

As the season moves into a key phase, caution amongst the mass of teams involved in the relegation scrap could lead to even more 0-0 draws.

It apears that the bookies have yet to react to the changing distibution of results and correct score odds have remained stable.

The last 2 weekend's of PL football have both yielded 3 goalless draws, so there may be a chance for those who like to dabble in multiple bets to maximise profits.

Keep your eyes open for opportunities in the weeks ahead
