Free Tips For Saturday 9th April

A real mixed bag today due to an incredible one selection coming up from my main system and several coming up using 'rough and ready'.


Here's the main one:


Croatia
5:00pm
Zadar v Osijek
The hosts have only lost twice at home this season - to Hajduk and Sibenik, although they've not played Dinamo Zagreb at the Stanovi Stadium yet - whereas Osijek have underperformed this season and have lost three of their last four road trips. Zadar haven't lost any of the last five meetings between these two and that record looks set to continue. Home/draw dutch.
Result: 1-1


Here are the 'rough and ready' selections: they're all home/draw dutches but it's worth remembering that I haven't been as thorough in my investigations for these games as I have for the Zadar/Osijek game and I would recommend smaller stakes for the following games. If anything caught my eye I'll add a note under the game. All kick offs are 3:00pm GMT, Ipswich are probable home bankers.


Barclays Premier League
Tottenham v Stoke
Tottenham haven't lost a home game in the Premier League on the weekend after an away Champions League game and haven't lost at home since August.
Result: Spurs 3, Stoke 2


nPower Championship
IPSWICH v Crystal Palace
Palace have lost eleven of their last 13 away games, although it's only fair to point out that they won this fixture last season.
Result: Ipswich 2, Crystal Palace 1

Portsmouth v Preston
Portsmouth are terrific value for the win, but this game is definitely worth home/draw dutching.
Result: Portsmouth 1, Preston 1


Scottish 1st Division
Falkirk v Partick Thistle
Result: Falkirk 2, Partick Thistle 3


Scottish 2nd Division
Ayr v Forfar
An Ayr win is good value
Result: Ayr 3, Forfar 1

Brechin v East Fife
Result: Brechin 1, East Fife 3


Scottish 3rd Division
Berwick v Montrose
Result: Berwick 0, Montrose 1

Queen's Park v Elgin City
Result: Queens Park 1, Elgin City 0

Should be back tomorrow, but if not enjoy the weekend.
