    English Premier League - Round 3

    Round 3 of the English Premier League kicks off this weekend with Tottenham vs Manchester City and Manchester United vs Arsenal likely to be the headline fixtures. Arsenal's transfer and injury woes have resulted in Manchester United opening at 1.43 as they prepare to host the Gunners. High scoring Manchester City will start as marginal favourites away at Tottenham.

    Below are the latest fixture odds (subject to change).

    We could see a fair number of draws this week. I can't see Arsenal troubling Man Utd at the moment.

    Are you going to have a crack at another multi this week Goodsy?

      haha - I dont think I will this week, im 0/2 on EPL multis and down $20. So may leave it awhile.. also the special with sportingbet is finished..

      Giving the above list a quick glance... i got my eyes on another Man City win.. and perhaps a draw between Newcastle v Fulham. Will have a closer look yet..

        Tottenham v Man City should be a great game. I have high expectations for both these sides this season.

        I'm on the Man City bandwagon too, with three players (no more are allowed) on my fantasy team. Anything over 2.00 for Man City h2h is probably worth a shout - I was disappointed with Tottenham last week.

        I'd back Man Utd to take all three points against Arsenal.

        Looking at the fixtures I don't blame you for sitting out a multi this week. I can't find 4 games to feel confident about. At least you won't be binded by the 6.00 odds restriction now that the promo is over.

            I think it would be a good idea to keep posting the 4 legged multi, even if we aren't going to bet on it. It will still build our knowledge of whether it is worth persisting with in the future.

            Here is mine for this week (in order of confidence)
            Chelsea
            Liverpool
            Wigan
            Newcastle and Fulham to Draw (I hate the draw as a bet, but as others have said...tough weekend)
            Combined Odds approx 11.90

              Ill have a look at an EPL 4 leg multi and post my thoughts soon... in the meantime gone a big european multi:

              Kaiserslautern v Bayern Munich
              Chelsea v Norwich
              Liverpool v Bolton
              Cagliari v Milan
              Lyon v Montpellier
              St. Mirren v Celtic
              Rangers v Aberdeen
              Lazio v Chievo
              Inter v Lecce

              So yeah, its a long shot with so many games... but teams that you would expect to win across the European leagues.... got $5 on it @$22.57

                Okay digga1799, here are my picks:

                Chelsea @ 1.18
                Man Utd @ 1.43

                Not very exciting, I know, but I prefer the lower divisions for betting.

                For my ambitious 4 legged multi:

                Chelsea
                Man Utd
                Blackburn & Everton to draw
                Swansea & Sunderland to draw
                Combined odds: 17.28

                  For my singular bets..

                  Aston Villa v Wolverhampton @$1.95
                  Liverpool v Bolton @$1.38
                  Tottenham v Manchester City @$2.45
                  Manchester United v Arsenal @$1.46

                  If I based that for my 4 leg multi that would be $9.63 based on current Sportingbet odds.

                  Villa v Wolves - tough game, both in form.. going the home team with more attacking options.
                  Totenham v Man City - another tough game, Spurs were dissapointing last week, would expect them to bounce back at home. Though Man City are the form team of the comp. Man City are $1.77 draw-no-bet, thats not a bad option.

                  Some good games this week..

                      Out of curiosity, what is everyone's best ever multi?

                      Mine is this six-leg effort back in April '09: Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa & Everton all to win. I don't recall their opponents, as that's all I have recorded. I do know that Everton were at 2.90 odds, which was the riskiest element of the multi.

                      The good news is it was a winning bet at 24.10 odds. The bad news is I only wagered $1!

                        mine was last week 8leg multi man utd and villa in the soccer and lions and westcoast with the line bets in afll and eagles,warriors -6.5 tigers and manly and the price was $40.17.

                        i like mixing sports for a multi when you have 5 or more legs
                        this is my first week on this site i love it.

                          8 legs for 40.17, that's huge! How much did you wager?

                          I agree about mixing sports for multis. That week in '09 I looked at the fixtures line up and happened to have strong opinions about six of the games. Hasn't happened since.

                          The forum's actually really young. I can't find any posts before Aug. Hopefully more people will get onto it.

                            Thats awesome digga1799... well done.

                            ive only got into the whole betting thing since July, so im still learning. Only really started doing multis the last few weeks.

                            My big euro multi i got going on at the moment is still alive... im 5/5, the annoying thing i hve found out though is that the italian games have been postponed.. so will miss out on 3 of my games therefore drastically reducing the odds and payout if it comes off. I only have 1 game remaining tonight.. I think its Celtic....

                            Ahh well, still as long as i can win it its still money.

                            We should start a multi thread somewhere anbd post up our multis for the weekend... so we can discuss and take ideas from each other..

                              Here is mine for this week (in order of confidence)
                              Chelsea
                              Liverpool
                              Wigan
                              Newcastle and Fulham to Draw (I hate the draw as a bet, but as others have said...tough weekend)
                              Combined Odds approx 11.90
                              Still in it. Most risky leg to finish it off though.

                              As far as multi's go, for the second half of last year I was doing a 6-leg euro multi, picking a winner from each of Europe's top leagues (England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France and Scotland). I got it 3 times with odds between $8 and $13. It was my most profitable type of bet. At the end of the season I finished slightly down (about a 1.5%), which was due to the EPL rather than the Euro multi.
