Flash:
Now, there’ll be no turkeys on my show. I only have the award-winning owner of We Love Betting Online, Mark O’Haire, and European odds compiler and the digger of outstanding value, Mark Stinchcombe, who will be just known as Stinch. Before I go to the boys, let’s have a little look at the records from last week. We will have a little bit of a different format going forward.
Flash:
Flash, 3.14. That’s it. I’m absolutely cruising, pull the ladder up. Stinch had a bit of a bad run, but he’s had a few pushes as well. Listen, this is just one week away, only 3.97, so this can be erased very, very quickly, and this weekend does show that if you’re brave enough, then get yourself on because we’ve got some great plus money picks.
Flash:
Get yourselves in the chat as well because this is your show. If you’ve got something you want to say, then say it all the way through. If you’ve got tips or you’ve got picks, then say them as well because listen, just because we’re your experts in front of the camera, some of you have got great knowledge as well, so make sure you share it. We are a community.
Flash:
First of all, I’ll go to Mark O’Haire. Mark O’Haire, we saw some great performances last week, and I think we’ve got to start with Newcastle, looking like Bournemouth in disguise. Scoring plenty of goals, but cannot control the game, so that means we look at Newcastle in the overs from now on.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, you called it spot on, didn’t you, against Brentford? 23 shots in the first game. Well, fair play, I was-
Flash:
Well, he’s my old teammate. I know his DNA.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah. Exactly, and it did look like a carbon copy of that Bournemouth team who get criticized or was criticized for conceding too many goals. But I think the right philosophy is to try and outscore your opposition, particularly if you’re in a relegation battle. It’s not exact science, but three points is better than one, right? So, you might as well go all out to try and win matches particularly when you need the points.
Mark O’Haire:
I thought we saw a system switch from Newcastle, some players coming in from the cold who haven’t particularly performed over the Steve Bruce reign come out and make a difference really. So, yeah, it’s all quite positive for the fans on Tyneside.
Flash:
Yeah, and I think they’ll settle for that, Stinch, won’t they? Because, obviously, they’ll go away thinking, “But at least we had a go.” That’s all they ask first of all. Yes. Yes, the defense is not good enough, especially by playing that way because you’ve got no real holding midfielder, so it’s you attack, we attack, and for us, as bettors, that’s great. But soon, the odds will catch up with us, and the value will be gone.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, I think that’s something we’re seeing this weekend already, I mean, we’ll come on to it when we discuss Arsenal v. Newcastle, but spoiler alert, the goal line’s set at three. So, already we’re having to dig around a little bit if you want to try and get goals onside.
Mark Stinchcombe:
It’s very interesting you mention the Newcastle game from last week because I want to touch on Brentford very quickly. That’s three games in a row without their first-choice goalkeeper, and they’ve conceded eight goals. I don’t think it’s any coincidence. I mean, the goalkeeper comes from a good stature. He has played in La Liga, but there definitely seems to be a bit of a disconnect between the goalkeeper and the defense, and it’s no surprise that they’ve never played on a regular basis together.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, Brentford have been very, very good defensively up until this point in the season. I would be very cautious going forward because the goalkeeper is out for a long period of time.
Flash:
Okay. Well, let’s crack straight on. As I said to you, there’s going to be a new format. Also, if we have the same selection, duplication that’s called, and it’s a winner, I will add it to the individual records. But if we win two units between us, only one unit will go onto the total.
Flash:
So, let’s kick straight off. We’re going to go to North London. It’s Arsenal versus the aforementioned Newcastle. Arsenal -220, Newcastle +500, and the draws are a whopping 390. As Stinch has already told you that the line is set at three because, Stinch, I fancy, everyone’s going to fancy both teams to score an over here.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, definitely. It’s very difficult not to want to bat that, to be honest. I mean, Arsenal have been talked very positively, and since their poor start to the season, people mention, “Oh, they’re on a 10-game unbeaten run.” But the caliber of teams they’ve played during that run was the likes of Watford, Burnley, Crystal Palace, Brighton, and it wasn’t exact-
Flash:
Let me stop you there. Let me stop you there though because you say that caliber, Watford scored four last week, Brentford scored three last week, Palace scored three last week, Burnley scored three… It’s like they’re all having a go.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, I mean Arsenal were heavy favorites in most of those games, to be honest. That’s why I mention it and they only sort of were winning. We’re just scraping by, to be honest, and the underlying data says they’ve been overperforming really, especially defensively. I’m not an Arsenal fan, so I don’t watch their every single minute of all their matches, but I’m a Liverpool fan and I watched that game last week, and it was just a car crash of a performance, really.
Mark Stinchcombe:
To keep playing the same way even though it was playing right into Liverpool’s hands. I mean, that was 4-0, but it could have been 8-0, really. I just thought it was a really, really bad performance. And I think as I said, honestly, I just think Arsenal long term are lacking a bit of a strategy. You can play this nice football, but you’ve got to pick your points. You can’t just play it religiously no matter what the opposition is.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, in this game, I was thinking of trying to get Newcastle onside somewhere, and you don’t want to. I mean, they’ve got an awful record at the Emirates. I think they might have lost 17 of the last 18 trips or something like that. So, they’ve got an awful record at Arsenal, and Arsenal do have the better players.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, I was thinking if I could try and get Newcastle onside somehow, but yeah, you’re right. I just think both teams scoring over two and a half goals plus money is the way to go. I mean, you look at the goal lines you mentioned, the goal line is three. So, in order to get paid out, we need at least four goals. Whereas the bet of over two and a half and both teams scoring, you need three.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, as long as nobody keeps a clean sheet, we’ve stolen a goal there. 10 out of Newcastle’s 12 matches have seen both teams score. Both teams to score is only -130, so as long as we get that extra goal, we’re going to go from -130 to +105, and I don’t think anyone’s backing 1-1 outright. So, yeah, to me it makes complete sense. It’d be interesting to hear Mark’s view.
Flash:
Mark, I can see already in the chat Danny Lopez has jumped in with… and this is where you’ve got to be careful. Last six head-to-head Arsenal have kept a clean sheet. Completely different mentality, completely different manager and set up. Newcastle will have a go. I remember Bournemouth going here many, many times. Remember when it says Arsenal versus Newcastle, don’t think Newcastle of the last two, three years. Think Bournemouth, I’m having a go. It could be 4-2, 4-1. You see goals?
Mark O’Haire:
I do, but I’m probably not quite as strong as you guys, really. Newcastle had 23 shots against Brentford last week, which was really quite impressive. I think nine or so on target as well. But the thing that’s holding you back is Arsenal.
It’s how Arsenal will look to try and play this game because so far under Mikel Arteta, they’ve not been the most expansive. They’re probably the most proactive team, and we’ve seen it in some of their games against the teams down the bottom end of the table. Scraping 1-0 wins against Norwich and Burnley. They weren’t massively fluent in any of those matches despite keeping the opposition at arm’s length as well.
Mark O’Haire:
I wasn’t quite so harsh on Arsenal against Liverpool. I thought they competed pretty well for the most part of the first half, but clearly, things unraveled in the second half, and it got to the embarrassing stage. Whereas I think it could have potentially gone a little bit better, and I think there has been gradual seeds of progress there, particularly from a defensive perspective of Ramsdale there. You’ve got a first-choice back four in place. I expect Tierney to come back into the team. He should have played last week because of his experience, but there we have it.
Mark O’Haire:
And then Newcastle, yeah, it’s purely just early stages of Howe’s era, so I just want to step back and get a bit more clarity about what Newcastle are going to do and if they’re going to continue with the 3-4-3 system. It will be brave because, as you said at the start of the show there, Flash, they don’t really have a defense or players capable of playing in a Premier League defense.
Mark O’Haire:
So, it is going to be difficult, but as well as Stinch says, the stats all stack up for Newcastle in terms of goals, in terms of both teams to score. 3.5 goals per game on average so far in the premier league. But yeah, something about Arsenal just holding me back here, so I’m happy to take a pass and let you guys dig in on goals.
Flash:
Okay. Well, let me tell you about Newcastle, and also, with the new format now, our official picks will pop up just about there. So, instead of it saying Flash, it will say the official pick, so I haven’t got to go to an official picks page. Just let me tell you a little bit about Eddie Howe’s man-management. He’s gone straight in now, and the whipping boy of Newcastle was Joelinton. Scored three goals in four million appearances, goes to the press conference, and says, “I cannot believe the quality of this lad.” He’s been an absolute shining example.”
Flash:
You stick that in with the confidence of Saint-Maximin and the quality of Callum Wilson, and all of a sudden, you’ve potentially got three new signings. So, yeah, great job, and you saw the lad grow. Belief and confidence is a massive thing. It’s easily lost, but it’s also easily gained. So, the official picks will now pop up because myself and Stinch have gone both teams to score and over 2.5 goals at +105. Wouldn’t put anyone off just the over two and a half goals, but I don’t see a clean sheet. I see Newcastle having a pop.
Flash:
But maybe Arsenal are running out, so if you want to do Arsenal to win and both teams to score, then I’m sure that’s probably a good way to go as well. Let’s kick on to the next game because we’re off to the Northwest and it is probably one of the best sides in world football at the moment. It’s Liverpool at home to Southampton. Southampton are +925. It tells you everything on the moneyline with Liverpool -350, and the draw at +525.
Flash:
Remember this is a Southampton side that went to the Etihad and did draw 0-0, and the handicap was two. Mark O’Haire, I was thinking the Handicap must be the same again, but no, it’s only a plus one and a half, and +110. The big one for me that stands out straight away is do Southampton score. If they don’t, it’s +130.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, I can understand why you want to go down that route. Liverpool have been really impressive over the past week. The win against Arsenal and then seeing off Porto in the way they did without van Dijk and Alexander-Arnold and Fabinho. No Robertson or Henderson. They left them out to make sure they’re 100% because we’ve got a midweek Premier League card on the way as well. So, there’s no need to overload those players.
Mark O’Haire:
I think what’s really impressed me from a Liverpool perspective is someone like Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain who’s not had his greatest time in terms of being fit and available, coming into the team, and having a couple of really good games, and making an impact. Thiago as well. So, if those players could stay fit and stay playing to those levels, then Liverpool have suddenly got plenty of options across the middle of the park where I thought it was potentially an area of weakness at the start of the season after Wijnaldum left.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah. This is an interesting one because I’ve been quite warm on Southampton in recent weeks. Really frustrated with their performance last week against Norwich because they could and probably should have been out of sight at half-time. Took the early goal in the game, and then had about, what was it? 12 shots in the first half. Had a couple of really good opportunities to score a second, and then they tuck it in in the second half and end up losing the match.
Mark O’Haire:
They are an intriguing team because they’ve transitioned towards a bit more pragmatism. It worked a treat at Man City, a game you called spot-on, Flash. They gave Chelsea a really good game at Stamford Bridge before going down, and then you look at the matches against West Ham, Wolves, Man United. I know they’re not the same level as Liverpool, but they all found it very tough against Southampton too.
Mark O’Haire:
So, yeah, interesting to see how they set up and how this match plays out, but I guess when Liverpool are playing anyone at the moment, you expect them to score multiple goals. They’ve done it in every game bar one across all competitions this season. Saints difficult to break down, but probably will get broken down quite comfortably by a Liverpool attack which is just firing on all cylinders.
Flash:
Yeah, Stinch, I see this going two ways. I see patience needed from the home side because Southampton will be… They’ll be very deep. There’s no chance of them pushing up and taking the game to Liverpool, so I definitely see Southampton struggling to create clear-cut opportunities unless VAR gets involved, and then there’s nothing we can do.
Flash:
And also, I’m thinking Liverpool is all about the W in this game. They’ve had a few tough games. They win obviously last night against Porto with a mishmash side, but the stars were still there. But straight away I’m thinking, “Total under three and a half at -125. Surely, that’s it. 2-0, 3-0 for Liverpool is the way to go.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, but I think we’ve seen Liverpool this season definitely offensively with getting back to their first-choice 11 have just been remarkable. I mean, to go to Old Trafford, score five. In the same week they scored five at Watford, they scored five at Porto. They have, I think it’s just all but one game this season they’ve scored at least two goals. That’s why I left the main goal line alone.
Mark Stinchcombe:
I mean, the last few visits to Anfield for Southampton have been 2-0, 4-0, 3-0, and 3-0 defeats. So, I’m not envisaging Liverpool having issues scoring against Southampton defense, albeit an improved Southampton defense. But we’ve talked about that, and then they conceded two goals against Norwich, as you say, with probably not the greatest marking in the world.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, yeah, that’s why I’m a little bit apprehensive about… I don’t think… I mean, you’ve got it absolutely spot on when you posed Man City, but I think with Man City, they’ve not maybe been as relentless as Liverpool and maybe got somebody like a Salah or a Mané that’s going to be scoring regular amount of goals. I think City is sharing their goals out a lot more because they haven’t got a main number nine. That would be my apprehensiveness there.
Mark Stinchcombe:
You mentioned it already, but the number that stuck out for me was the Southampton total. Now, I’m not going to say that every week I’m just going to keep backing teams to not score any goals, but a +130, it just seems on the large side when you consider this is the third-best defense against the second-lowest scorers in the league, and you’re getting +130. I just thought it should be more like a 50/50 bet.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, I just thought there was a decent bit of value there getting against Southampton not to score a goal when I’ve already mentioned quite a few shows [inaudible 00:15:28]. Ché Adams, yeah, he’s popped up with a couple, which is good, but Adam Armstrong hasn’t quite hit the grounds that he was for Blackburn in the Championship.
Flash:
Yeah. For me, he’s not a Premier League striker.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Maybe not. He’s still quite young. He’s still quite young. It might take him a bit more time to adjust, and maybe he needs to be playing in a bit more of an attacking team. But that’s not really something we can maybe label him now. Maybe a little bit unfair only after 12 games and he’s not been playing every single game either.
Flash:
Yeah, or you’ve got the confidence in your conviction and opinion to call it early enough. It’s like people when they say, “Yeah, Wayne Rooney is a great player.” Yeah, he’s played 356 times, and 95 times for England. Why not say good or bad at the beginning? Like I said Harry Maguire, not good, and not good enough.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, I mean, if there’s a particular bet like we’re petting on Southampton not to score, then maybe it’s worth labeling in that respect, but maybe I’m not going to be quite so harsh at this point.
Flash:
Don’t worry about being harsh, that’s what we’re here for. We’ve got to call it good and bad. There’s no such thing. They’re both imposters, that’s what they are. Good is an imposter, bad is an imposter, so you’ve got to treat them both the same.
Flash:
I see this game could be 0-0 at half-time. I see Liverpool breaking them down, being patient. Southampton ain’t coming out of their holes. There is no chance. They’re going to be defending on the edge of their box, and the only way they’re going to go behind early is if they switch off with a little one-two around the corner, side foot across the goal, and someone comes in.
It’s almost like they’re going to play an upside-down Christmas tree to make sure they force Liverpool wide, out, back, throughs. There’ll be no balls over the top, and if there is, then something’s gone drastically wrong.
Flash:
Let’s have a little look at the official picks because I too don’t see Southampton scoring at +130. That was what jumped out at me, and also, under three and a half goals in the game at -125. I see this being a 2-0, 3-0 game. Maybe I’m just going to get a shot-to-nothing if Southampton score because I do not see this being a 3-1. I see this maybe just being a 2-1. But guns ahead, it’s 2-0, 3-0 to the home side, and let’s jog on.
Flash:
Okay. Big game this. Big game because it’s Norwich versus Wolves. Norwich on the back of winning last week going 1-0 behind. Had to show a bit of character, but they got a helping hand from their visitor Southampton. But Norwich are now +240 at home. Wolves +115. A lot of people are just going to say, “Don’t complicate it. Let’s get on Wolves,” because sneakily, and this surprised me as well, they’re right up there.
Flash:
I think they’re in the top seven in the table. They’re not letting goals in. They’re being very, very patient, and a draw at +260. But Stinch, straight away when we talk to you and it’s Norwich at home, is it Norwich not to score at +165?
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, I don’t want to seem as though I’m being lazy and backing it again, but I do like-
Flash:
It’s not lazy. There’s great value against this Wolves side. West Ham failed to trouble them last week.
Mark Stinchcombe:
I mean, yeah, I think critics would probably point to the fact that Norwich scored two last week, they scored two the week before against Brentford, they scored the week before against Leeds. But as we always say, it always comes back to price and the fact that it’s +165. I just think it’s too big, especially when you consider…
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, I don’t really want to go over Norwich in terms of what they did under Daniel Farke because he’s gone now. Looking at Dean Smith, we only have one game, so you can’t really judge too much. But I thought it was very alarming that they only managed eight shots in his first game at home last week in a team that’s desperate for points, and the total sum of their chances in terms of expected goals was just 0.44. So, that means that both the goals they scored were very, very low chances and they weren’t expected to score them.
Mark Stinchcombe:
This is kind of my way of getting Wolves onside because I’ve been very impressed with Wolves. I thought Wolves were very good last week against West Ham. I thought they fully deserved the three points in a game where West Ham were +130 favorites at Wolves despite the fact Wolves had started so well. So, I think that’s very impressive that Wolves were able to get the win there.
Mark Stinchcombe:
You’re right, we’ve talked about Wolves quite a lot this season. They lost their first three games 1-0, but I think we all said they should have won those games. So, imagine if they’d won those games where they’d be now. I think that’s something we can see going forward. There could be some games actually where they don’t deserve to win, but the variance evens itself out and they do get those points back.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, yeah, Norwich not to score, but this Wolves price at +115 does look quite juicy to me. I mean, Southampton last week were +105 or +110, right? I think we’d all be in agreement that Wolves are a better team than Southampton.
Flash:
Yes.
Mark Stinchcombe:
I don’t know, maybe Mark can corroborate a little bit and tell us whether this +115 is too big.
Flash:
Mark, it’s a no-brainer, ain’t it? We’ve got to go Wolves to win this game.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, I expect Wolves to win that for the very reason that Stinch has just outlined. They’re a bigger price than Southampton were last week, and as we just talked about Southampton, they were the better team for 45 minutes at least. Absolutely dominated Norwich and probably should have been a couple of goals for the good ahead before they capitulated and gave away some soft goals.
Mark O’Haire:
For Norwich, if you look across the whole campaign, they’ve played over 18 hours of Premier League football and scored three goals from open play. So, that certainly is a tick in the box for Norwich not scoring. They’ve also lost a non-penalty expected goals battle in 11 of those 12 games, and the shots in the box count in 11 of those 12 games.
Mark O’Haire:
So, they’re continuously getting outplayed, and the oppositions having created better chances. And yeah, I think Wolves are a streetwise team. Stinch mentioned in the start they’ve since won six games from nine. They’ve won five wins from eight games against the bottom half. They’re 11 points better off in the table.
Mark O’Haire:
They were the much better team against West Ham and there was a question mark I had over Wolves. It was a bit of a no-show from West Ham last week, and something similar happened when they played Everton who are missing a few players, but I’ve actually come to the conclusion that it’s probably more of a consequence of what Wolves are doing rather than just a coincidence that they’re actually imprinting themselves on the match so much that the opposition are unable to show their best side.
Mark O’Haire:
I think that’s a real strength if Wolves can continue to do that. It’s a real surprise because they’re going very much under the radar, but Wolves are sixth in the table now, which is really quite something and it shows how-
Flash:
Did that surprise you?
Mark O’Haire:
It did, yeah, because no one was talking about them.
Flash:
It’s like from nowhere. Where did they come from? I was like, “[inaudible 00:22:00]. Why are Wolves there?” And it’s like whenever you look, they’re just sneakily going about their business because they’re doing nothing spectacular. But go back to what you said, they’re like the old boa constrictor, and this is why I think Wolves… We could have three different bets here because Wolves are not going to lend the ball to Norwich. They’re going to keep the ball, defend deep, and this will not be an end-to-end game.
Flash:
You see where Norwich have won or scored their goals. Two against Brentford, end-to-end game. End-to-end game against Southampton when they break, get the ball wide and into the box. This is not going to be an end-to-end game. They are going to get the ball very rarely during this game.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, I agree, and I was very, very close to adding this as an official pick of Wolves to win the match because of the price on offer. The only reason holding me back is Norwich, regardless of what they’ve achieved on the field, they have turned over back-to-back wins now. Dean Smith has got the fans back onside just with that win and the way in which he came about against Southampton last weekend.
Mark O’Haire:
I think it’s hard sometimes to quantify the effect of the atmosphere around the ground, and just fans going to the stadium will now go there with a bit of an expectation that Norwich are going to play front-foot football and really take the game to Wolves and throw the kitchen sink at them.
Mark O’Haire:
So, just enough variables there for me to step back and say, just like I did with Newcastle, really. I want to see another week of Dean Smith’s Norwich before I really go in again against them because I’m hurting still after Southampton last week if I’m honest.
Flash:
Yeah. It was my only loser. Obviously, I don’t want to be talking about only winners, but it was my only loser in the Premier League, and it absolutely crushed me. I tell you what though, Wolves have scored twice, it’s +140. Them to win the game at +115 and Norwich not to score at +165. Take your pick. Jack Simpson says in the chat that, “There’s no way that Norwich win three in a row.” We agree with you, but is there any science behind that? Because of course, they can. Because they’ve won two and this is their third game.
Flash:
But everyone seems to want to be with Wolves, maybe even draw half-time, Wolves full-time at +410. Our official picks will now just pop up just automatically like that. I like that. I just press that button and it flicks up.
Norwich in total under 0.5 at +165, and again, me and Stinch, we’re in bed together. I’ve got the covers. He’s on the cold side. Don’t worry about that. +165 for Norwich not to score but remember to follow us on Twitter @BetUS_Soccer because I may well add I have a Wolves to score two at +140 or the Wolves just win the game don’t complicate it at +115. Surprised this-
Mark Stinchcombe:
Flash, I have another one to add in there.
Flash:
Go on, Stinch.
Mark Stinchcombe:
You can get Wolves minus a quarter at -120. So, if it finishes in a draw, we would get half our money back and that seems quite nice. Because they’re very similar odds to Leicester just to win the game and Leicester went there, and I think we were happy to accept that Wolves are at least on par with Leicester in terms of ability or quality. So, I think being able to get half your stake back if it finishes in a draw, but then get a full payout at -120. I think that would be quite a good route to go down.
Flash:
Yeah, you’ve seen my record. I don’t get a record like mine from getting half my money back, Stinch, you know what I mean? I’m all in like Del Boy down the market. Okay, MD says, “Flash, can you look at Spurs?” Yeah, that’s under the Q&A at the end, so if you do want something mentioned that we’ve not mentioned, then, yes. And I’ve got plenty thoughts on Spurs because they’re my banker last week and Christmas came early because I was one lucky punter.
Flash:
Okay. Let’s move on. I was surprised this game was on here because I found this very, very [inaudible 00:25:45]. Brighton versus Leeds. Brighton +105. Leeds +290. Leeds a massive price there at +290. Two sides that play identical football and you cannot split them. So, there comes the draw at +245. Mark O’Haire, Brighton versus Leeds. Both these sides on their day are entertaining. But also, when it’s not their day, it can be quite frustrating.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, absolutely. I’ll start with Brighton because they started the season with four wins from five, were riding high. Riding the crest of variance really because their performances probably weren’t quite as good as the results suggested, and it’s definitely turned against them since because it’s zero wins from seven.
Mark O’Haire:
Admittedly five of those games ended in draws, but they’re struggling right back down to midtable. Against Aston Villa last week, had 64% of the ball, dominated position territory for quite a lot of the game, yet only managed six shots and 0.2 expected goals and got caught late on. I thought the game was quite interesting because as soon as Potter took off Lamptey and Cucurella, the fullbacks, the wingbacks, they lost their thrust really going forward, and Villa take advantage.
Mark O’Haire:
But more so than that, as well, they’ve been using Trossard as a bit of a false nine, and I think in games against the likes of Liverpool, Man City, possession can get turned over quickly and there’s transitions and counterattacks. He’s a really tricky player and quite effective really. But against more compact deep line defenses, he struggles to make an impact, and that’s what Aton Villa did last weekend, marked him out of the game really.
Mark O’Haire:
I don’t think they’ll have that problem this weekend against Leeds. We know what Leeds are like. We know how Marcelo Bielsa likes his teams to play, and Graham Potter has had the Indian sign over him last season. Brighton did the double over Leeds, but they’ve also got a great record against bottom-half teams under Potter.
Mark O’Haire:
They tend to thrive in these kind of environments, but more so when they get more space to roam and do their thing. I know there’s been an issue at Brighton in terms of chance creation this season.
They’re very much struggling in that department. But Leeds are always going to give you an opportunity, and probably more opportunities than a standard Premier League team. If you look at their defensive record this season, just the one clean sheet. They’re easily in the top six for almost all negative metrics like shots conceded, shots on target against, expected goals conceded. All of those metrics Leeds are very much there or thereabouts.
Mark O’Haire:
But yeah, I think there’s a lot to like about Leeds as well, particularly after that first half against Spurs considering all the players that they were missing last week. I thought they put on a really good show because blowing themselves out a little bit in the second half. But crucially, Bielsa has got some key players back this week. Rodrigo and Raphinha have been confirmed as being available, and I think Raphinha’s inclusion is absolutely imperative for what Leeds do. If he’s in the team, I fancy Leeds to score against any team in that league.
Mark O’Haire:
So, I’m expecting this to be quite an interesting game. Both teams will fancy their chances here, and both teams desperately need the points for different reasons too. Brighton to end that poor run, and Leeds to basically try and pull away from the relegation zone. So, yeah, I’m expecting this to be quite a decent watch actually.
Flash:
Yeah. It’s a pure football match, Stinch. It is one of those where Brighton will look nice, neat, and tidy. Maybe no end product, but we only need one to go in for Brighton. And Leeds were so, so good last Sunday against Spurs.
Going into Spurs with the atmosphere of the new manager, silenced the crowd, deservedly went 1-0 up. No Rodrigo, no Raphinha, no Bamford. Now, we get two of them three back and Daniel James is absolutely on fire for sure in the midfield. He’s just doing such a great job in front of Phillips.
Flash:
A lot of people are just going to look at Leeds and go, “Plus half. So, basically, Leeds and the draw at -124. Give me that.”
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, if they had Bamford as well, I’d be in full agreement. I’m just waiting-
Flash:
Well, they wouldn’t be +290, would they?
Mark Stinchcombe:
I don’t know. The market does like Brighton. We see how often Brighton go off with these short prices. Maybe not get 290, maybe a bit more like 270 or something, but I’m just waiting for Leeds to get Bamford back to kick start their season just because if they had him last week, I think they could have been three up by half-time because he would have been there in the box, in the focal point.
Mark Stinchcombe:
I mean, Dan James in the match had about eight shots, and he’s not renowned for being a good footballer, so imagine if-
Flash:
They would have been three up if they had big Mark O’Haire up front finishing off their [inaudible 00:30:06] across.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Is he a handy striker?
Flash:
I totally agree with you, Stinch. I totally agree.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah. Basically, I think all Leeds, anyone associated with Leeds is just waiting to get their main man back, and then their season will just kickstart and they’ll be absolutely fine. I don’t think there’s any danger whatsoever with them being relegated or anything like that. I’m just a little bit wary. I did want to get involved in this game. I quite liked the look of over two and a half. I think any game involving Leeds which is pitched up over two and a half around about 50/50, that always piques my interest.
Mark Stinchcombe:
But yeah, just slightly wary, especially with Brighton, as Mark mentioned, I’m not really a fan of them playing without a striker. How many non-top-level teams do you know that play without a false nine? I don’t think other than outside of the elite clubs anybody does it-
Flash:
Oh, good boy. Good boy. I’m glad you said the elite clubs because I was just about to say, “Oh, Chelsea again Juve.”
Mark Stinchcombe:
Because those teams, the reason they’re elite clubs is because they’ve got fantastic players that are adaptable to different positions and aren’t reliant on one or two men to get the goals. But there’s a reason that football evolved with having strikers because strikers score the goals, right?
Mark Stinchcombe:
And just watching Brighton, I just really don’t like it when they haven’t got Maupay up there or… Towards the end of last season, they were playing Maupay and Welbeck at times and Welbeck was in some good goal-scoring form.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, yeah, that’s the only thing holding me back here is two teams offensively, I’m a bit unsure about them. If I was being super clever and I knew that they were both without their main strikers, I’d maybe go for under 2.5, but it’s not the sort of game I’d want to take under 2.5 because I think I’d just still be watching with my hands over my eyes because you are right. They both play really nice football. Both are very good at creating high-quality chances.
Mark Stinchcombe:
But then at the same time, because they play this high-risk football, then there’s always the opportunity that they might make a mistake in the back. Yeah, happy to give this one a watch in brief, and then maybe jump on board with Leeds next week if I’ve seen Bamford play an hour or half an hour off the bench or something.
Flash:
Okay. Well, keep your thoughts coming in the chat. The official picks will be popping up now, so we’ll have a look. And it’s both teams to score at -110 for Mark who’s joining the party. It looks so obvious, to be honest, because you also bring in the draw around +245. I can see this being 1-1, I can see this being 2-1. I don’t fancy there’s any clean sheets because both teams are going to turn up at the AmEx and think, “We can win this game. So, if there’s three points on offer, then let’s take them, and let’s not be going home afterwards thinking if onlies.”
Flash:
So, yeah, very entertaining game there, and I think Leeds are overpriced at +290 by the way, and I think Brighton on the moneyline is a little bit too short around the +105, +110. But yeah, good game ahead. Next game could be another bit of a shocker to be honest because we’ve got Leicester hosting Watford.
Flash:
Watford sent… Basically, it was the nail in the coffin for Ole Gunnar Solskjær because they beat Man United four. But Leicester -155 too short? Watford +445, probably also too short. Draw at +310. This is a game that I’m surprised that we’re looking at because there’s probably 10 or 15 different eventualities.
Flash:
I’m going to come to you Mark O’Haire because Leicester got taught a lesson last week against Chelsea. Chelsea ran out just so, so comfortable, and Kanté looked like he was on a different planet from the first minute.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah. There’s something wrong with Leicester this season. I can’t quite put my finger on it. Whether it’s just key players haven’t been fit and available, poor form. You look towards the likes of Jonny Evans who’s been hobbling around for a few weeks now, Wilfred Ndidi who just looked completely off the pace last week. Söyüncü who’s been dreadful since the summer really in the Euros and we’d like to annihilate him every week.
Mark O’Haire:
But it’s hard to really put your finger on it. There was so much space in the midfield last week. You talked about Kanté running the game, but the spaces that Leicester were allowing Chelsea is just unforgivable really, and I’ve been putting the boot into Leicester all season because they haven’t been anywhere near the standards that we expect them to be or what they’ve shown in the last two seasons or so.
Mark O’Haire:
They’re playing Thursday night in Europa League, which is always a bit of a distraction. Coming straight off that game against Chelsea where they were totally outplayed. I just look at the underlying metrics and they’re massively overperforming even though they’re midtable. They’re at least four points better off than they probably should be. I think defensively they’re completely inept.
Stinch has hammered that point home quite regularly. It’s two clean sheets in 18 against all competitions this season, one of which was against Millwall in the cup. In the Premier League, it’s three clean sheets in 27, two of which were against relegated clubs.
Mark O’Haire:
I just can’t get with them in any sort of confidence right now. The only thing going for them is the quality they have individually in forward areas, but even some of those players aren’t really seeing from the same [inaudible 00:35:07] at the moment. So, yeah, this is an interesting game. A potential banana skin, I think, for Leicester because Watford, we don’t really know what we’re going to get from Watford.
Mark O’Haire:
If you look at their campaign so far, they’ve played 12 Premier League games. They’ve actually failed to score in seven of those, but in the other five, they’ve scored at least three goals in four of them. So, under Ranieri their efforts against Man United very commendable. Energetic, intent, expansive. I was quite impressed, but also, they scored five goals at Goodison Park, which is unheard of really for Watford or a team of that ilk, so-
Flash:
Mark, let me come in there because wouldn’t you say that the Leicester backline almost mirrors the Everton backline as well?
Mark O’Haire:
100% and that’s why I think Watford will be going there with real confidence after what they achieved against Man United and Everton. Why can’t they repeat the feat against this Leicester team who are looking shambolic defensively? Sarr came off injured, but Ranieri said it was just a precaution. I think that’s key really. You need him fit, firing, and available. I know he missed those penalties, but he is a cut above the bottom half of the Premier League. He should be playing at a top-six club really.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, I mean, I’m really hopeful that this game will play out as quite an exciting end-to-end entertaining match. I just think two dreadful defenses. They’ve kept one clean sheet between them this season in the Premier League, and an intent from both teams to go forward should in theory spell goals. Overs has landed in eight of Leicester’s 12 this season. Further back, it’s 20 from 27, and I mentioned Watford has erratic scoring patterns. Five of their 12 games so far have got over three and a half goals.
Mark O’Haire:
Expect Watford to score. Why wouldn’t you against that Leicester defense? But Leicester have also got, as I said, the individual quality in forward there. You would expect them to score two, and yeah, I’m expecting goals. You can get pretty much evens on over two and a half goals and both teams scoring, which took my fancy here.
Flash:
Yeah, I bet it did, and the other thing that Stinch we’ve got to say is that hostilities will be at a complete minimum with Ranieri going back to the King Power Stadium. I’m wondering if Leicester start this game a little bit flat and I wonder if Leicester do not score two because if you don’t fancy Leicester to score two, it’s a +135.
Flash:
Watford are way overpriced at +445 but giving them… They can get beat. They can get beat by one goal and you get a push at -135. What are you looking at?
Mark Stinchcombe:
Well, firstly, I’m a little bit annoyed I’ve lost my 2.5 goal line mandatory Leicester bet every week. I think that comes back to what we’ve said previous weeks. You keep backing the edge until it disappears, so I’m happy to look past the goal line just because I mentioned before what I quite liked about the beauty of getting on goals with Leicester games is they could easily lose 3-0 as much as they could win 3-0. So, you weren’t always having to rely on both teams to contribute.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Just going back to Mark’s point regarding what’s wrong with Leicester. Maybe it’s the manager because he keeps annoying me by not picking Iheanacho. Iheanacho has started… I’m not sure if I’ve said something that’s not correct. Iheanacho has started four games this season. He got hooked at half-time one of them. The three that he’s played the majority of the games in, they beat Man United, they beat Brentford. Neither of them are poor teams, and the other one they were 2-0 up against Palace until the shambolic defense kicked in.
Mark Stinchcombe:
The end of last season, I thought Iheanacho, and Vardy were fantastic together, so it’s baffling me why they’re not playing. But I tell you what, here I wouldn’t put anyone off taking Watford on the moneyline at +445. It’s four and a half times profit if they win the game against a Jekyll and Hyde Leicester side.
Mark Stinchcombe:
You can say Jekyll and Hyde Watford, but at the same time, we know that, let’s say four and a half times your winnings if Watford pull off a win. I mean, they’ve already scored five against Everton as you mentioned, four against Man United. What’s to stop them going to Leicester, as Mark says, who are involved in Europe on Thursday night. Watford got the week off. Maybe Ranieri’s got a point still to prove because he did ultimately get sacked despite winning the league.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, I mean I would be tempted to get involved with Watford somehow. I wouldn’t want to back them on the handicap just because as I’ve mentioned it many times before, I really like the personnel that Leicester have and I do believe they did run riot in any match and win by a few goals. But I have to say they’re having more days off than they are on at the moment, I think that +445 it just stands out massively. So, maybe with half a unit or a slightly smaller bet on just Watford on the pure moneyline.
Flash:
Yeah. And normally when you have a moneyline, a visitor around +445, then normally that means that draw no bet is around the +160 as well. But then it’s a bit of a sour because you’re only going to get paid if your selection wins, and if they’re going to win, they’re going to get +445. So, why would you then be taking the +160?
Flash:
Official picks in this game. I think you know that it’s going to be… there you go. Both teams to score and over two and a half at +105. Yeah, it’s good. I fancy both teams scoring, it’s whether someone gets two. If Leicester don’t get two, then what a price you had on Leicester and under one and a half goals.
Flash:
Okay. Let’s move on to our final game. It is the biggest game. Chelsea, one of the best sides in the world, host probably one of the biggest clubs in the world. Not teams, but clubs in Manchester United. We’ve got Chelsea at -165. A lot of people will be drawn to that. -1 at +110. The visitors at +475. That’s probably the biggest it’s been for many, many a year. Draw at +315 more the unders and overs, Stinch, is back to your two and a half.
Flash:
What do we see here? Because when Carrick took over, we saw the fullbacks sit in. They were a solid four, they didn’t come out. But they were playing against the yellow submarine in Villareal who don’t really test anyone at pace.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, to be honest, I’m not really going to read too much into one game tenure under Carrick. Would prefer to focus more on the Chelsea point of view, and I think if you want to get Chelsea onside, you just keep going down the same route as you’ve mentioned time and time again. Particularly, Mark, I think’s had success with it, which is Chelsea to win in under 3.5 goals.
Mark Stinchcombe:
You look at the prices that are available here, most people I think would agree that that -165 Chelsea, albeit it probably isn’t far off being wrong, it does look quite short when you consider that Man United do… The caliber of players Man United have. They are capable of scoring out of nothing. But then you look at the goal line and you see the goal line there at 2.5.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Being able to get an extra goal onside in a sport such as football, which is such a low-scoring, but high-variance sport, I think it’s just absolutely massive and you can basically increase that -165 to +110 by backing Chelsea in under 3.5 goals. I’m not sure the exact stat. Mark will know, but I think it’s something like 33 of the last 40 total games have gone under 3.5 or something mad like that.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yes, I think people will point to the fact they scored seven against Norwich, four against Juventus, four against Malmo, and say, “Oh yeah, they’re scoring more goals nowadays.” Possibly, but it’s all about price and long-term data and not looking at too much, I don’t believe, at the short term.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, yeah, it’s impossible to know exactly how Man United are going to play the rest of the season. I think it’s going to be very similar because it’s the same coaching staff, the same players. I don’t think they’ll continue with too much of a plan. It’s just basically trying to pick your spots for the opposition, and I think getting Chelsea onside is the correct way to go.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Being able to go from minus money to plus money just by trying to predict a I’d say low-scoring game. Even if it’s 3-0 Chelsea, that’s not necessarily a low-scoring game. So, yeah, raising the goal line by an extra goal, I think it makes complete sense. I don’t think there’s anyone out there that will want to get Man United onside considering how dominant Chelsea are with the position of the ball.
Flash:
Yeah. Maybe Kanté because Kanté limped off, Chilwell limped off, Ziyech limped off. So, I’m wondering if this is a both teams to score and over game. Maybe Chelsea to win and both teams to score. Man United got to throw caution to the wind Mark O’Haire, and they’ve certainly got players that can do damage in the final third.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah. There’s breaking news while being on air. It looks like Ralf Rangnick is going to sign a deal to be the Man United coach until the end of the season, so-
Flash:
Can you give us a little bit of a lowdown on him?
Mark O’Haire:
To a certain degree. He’s very highly thought of in European football for the work he’s done previously either as a sporting director or as a head coach as well. Very intelligent guy. I think he’d be a real asset for Man United. Whether he’s going to be the head coach in the longer term or potentially step up and be a sporting director, which I think Man United massively lack.
Mark O’Haire:
But yeah, I mean, he’s one of the better names available linked with the job so far, but I’m still uneasy about this interim appointment, so we’ll see. Yeah, I didn’t think a huge amount would change with Man United’s performance at Villareal in the week. They were a bit more reserved, a bit more organized. They seemed to have a bit more of a plan, but let’s be brutal about it. David de Gea was still their man of the match, and they could easily have lost that match as well.
Mark O’Haire:
So, they’re going into this match at Stamford Bridge without Varane without Maguire as well. So, the two leading center halfs-
Flash:
That’s a bonus.
Mark O’Haire:
I’d say possibly without one of them, but I think with two of them missing, they are going to be a little bit stretched, and it’s three clean sheets in 26 across all competitions. A dreadful run defensively, so they probably are going to have to batten down the hatches a bit more the way Chelsea are playing at the moment. I’ve talked about Chelsea’s defensive stats over and over again now, but they’ve played 50 games now under Thomas Tuchel. They’ve won 35 of those and they’ve only conceded 24 goals.
Mark O’Haire:
This season in the Premier League and Champions League they’ve played 17 games, which is almost 26 hours of football, and they’ve only conceded three goals that weren’t penalties. Just astonishing numbers really. They’ve got Lukaku and Timo Werner back in the fold for this weekend, and even if Kanté and Chilwell are missing. Well, Chilwell is definitely [crosstalk 00:45:32]-
Flash:
Maybe Kovačić, Ziyech, and also, let’s not get blinded by results because this Chelsea side have been stuttering at home. Remember when they beat Villa. Again, we look at the result, but Villa were more than a match for them. I’m just saying that I think the value here is obviously with the home side to win the game, but both teams scoring because… Listen, it could be Greenwood, this could be Ronaldo and it could be Cavani, it could be Martial. Rashford obviously as well.
Flash:
They’ve got too much to say, I think that one of these teams keeps a clean sheet. Both teams to score and over two and a half goals, that is +130. So, [crosstalk 00:46:16] who wins it’s +130.
Mark O’Haire:
I was going to say they started… or Sancho played in the week and played pretty well as well, which is really encouraging. But the fact that United were able to bring Bruno Fernandes and Rashford off the bench goes to show the quality they have in reserve. So, any decent head coach coming into this club has got a lot of promise to work with. A lot of potential. A lot of talent.
Mark O’Haire:
Just going back to the match prices here. I kind of would side with Stinch. I’d want to be with Chelsea and oppose high goal line. I think you can get -110 on Chelsea to win in under four and a half goals, which gives you that extra bit of insurance and guards against a really high-scoring match.
Mark O’Haire:
But in terms of the match price, Chelsea don’t, for me, offer any value at all. I expect them to win the game, but they’re going off at really, really short price compared to what they’ve done historically against a big six team. I think Man United, I don’t have this official, but I think they’re pretty much the biggest price they’ve ever been at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League as well. You just mentioned those players they’ve got available to them. They are match-winning players in that squad.
Flash:
They are. They are. I could see Man United going there and winning. I can, but I’m going to be having money on that because I wouldn’t want to oppose-
Mark O’Haire:
Exactly.
Flash:
You wouldn’t want to oppose either of the sides because they’re absolute giants, and also, let’s mention this prior and look at it next week. How many of these games actually we hype up and they end up being absolute garbage 0-0s.
Mark O’Haire:
Both these games last season between these two teams ended 0-0, but I think that was more to do without any crowds and the coaches in charge, but oh, yeah.
Flash:
Yeah, okay. So, here’s the official pick. There you go. Both teams to score and over two and a half at +130. Harry Dockerty who’s just Chelsea through and through and he’s completely blinded, stick that in your pipe and smoke it because you’ve gone for 4-0. Yeah, I can see you winning 4-1 or 4-2, but listen, I don’t care who wins the game as long as I see three goals. I do not want to see that 0-0 because it really is an obvious scoreline when you look at the way that these two sides have matched up over recent past.
Flash:
Right, Q&A. Okay. So, first of all, someone said, “Can we have a little quick question and answer? Burnley versus Spurs.” Stinch, do you want to take this game?
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah, sure. Just looking at the odds available here. I first have to say that I’ve been very… We’ve hyped them up or I definitely have. Very disappointed with Spurs in both of their performances. You can give them credit I would say for coming back against Leeds last week after Leeds dominated that first half, but Spurs, they don’t look very fluid at all. I know it’s early days and I still expect Conte to sort things out. But they don’t look very, very fluid at all.
Mark Stinchcombe:
They’re near even money to win away at Turf Moor. Based on players alone, I’m happy to back that, but as I say, they’re just lacking a lot of fluidity. I mean, the goal line is, as I said, 2.5 50/50, and Burnley have been struggling to defend all season. All of a sudden, Maxwel Cornet is scoring, Chris Wood’s scoring. So, Burnley look good for goals, but at the same time, I could see Burnley winning to nil. It sounds a bit mad, but I could see that happening.
Flash:
Oh, without a doubt.
Mark Stinchcombe:
So, I think really-
Flash:
Spurs looked so disjointed, didn’t they?
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yes.
Flash:
I mean, this is strange because everyone knows that Spurs were my banker last week at +100. All through the game, and obviously, I know Højbjerg. Højbjerg’s in the Maguire camp for me. He’s not a Spurs player. He’s not going to create you anything. His second touch is normally a tackle, and he comes up and gets me back in the game and it’s almost like you hammer these players, and then all of a sudden, he scores.
Flash:
Come on now. Spurs have got no creativity at all. They look like they were defending deep, and if you defend deep against Burnley, you could well be going home with a really, really bloodied nose because they just pump the ball into your box and pick up the pieces.
Mark Stinchcombe:
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Spurs play and move like eight defensive-minded players in this 3-4-3. The two wide men are both wingbacks. The two in the middle, Højbjerg and Winks or Højbjerg and Skipp, they’re both defensively-minded players. So, then you’re relying almost solely on Son, Kane, and Moura to create something.
Mark Stinchcombe:
I remember these two just before the lockdown a couple of years ago played a very dogged and feisty game at Turf Moor. I think it might have finished 1-1 in that instance. So, yeah, I think it’s one to leave alone and just see how Spurs are continuing to develop because you look at their price last week, they were like -140, I think, at home to Leeds and you would expect them to be, I would say, odds on probably away to Burnley, if that price was correlating from last week. So, I think the market has spoken and said, “Yeah, we weren’t impressed with that Spurs performance either, and we need to see a bit more.”
Flash:
Yeah. +100 Spurs to win in over one and a half last week. Thank you very much, jog on you lucky, lucky presenter. Mark O’Haire, the other game that they want to quickly touch on, and I don’t care if you just say no. It’s Palace versus Villa.
Mark O’Haire:
Yeah, fascinating game this. I left it alone for the same reason I’ve left the Norwich game and who was the other one? Newcastle game alone as well because of the new manager instance. But certainly, Steven Gerrard getting Aston Villa defending a lot deeper, defending a lot more compact. Actually, playing with a bit of a press as well last weekend against Brighton performing pretty well.
Mark O’Haire:
But Palace have been the big surprise to me this season. I tipped them to go down, expected bad things of them, but they’ve been really, really good. They’ve had a really tough schedule and they continue to garner some decent points, and if you look at the table in terms of expected points and expected goals and you strip out the big three of Chelsea, Liverpool, and Man City and look at the Premier League as a whole, those 17 teams, Palace are actually coming out on top in terms of the performance data metrics, which is really quite impressive and commendable for Patrick Vieira.
Mark O’Haire:
So, yeah, I found this quite a tricky one too. Very evenly matched teams. I thought the draw immediately stood out because of where they both are and where they’re looking to head towards, but also, I thought under two and a half goals was of interest too because you get a one-goal win either side or a 2-0 for either team.
Mark O’Haire:
So, you’ve got a range of correct scores to support and cheer on. Although, obviously, Palace’s 3-3 with Burnley last weekend probably goes against that. But last weekend or the last couple of weeks in the Premier League has been pretty bonkers hasn’t it in terms of surprise results and big scorelines too. But yeah, no major view, but I’ll be looking towards the draw and unders.
Flash:
Yeah. Okay. Let’s move on. I don’t even know what’s going to happen now because, obviously, it’s a new format in the show.
