COVENTRY v BORO ODDS PREVIEW
The lads from Boro who've been working on building the new Wembley Stadium have told me that every hollow section of the arch contains a piece of Boro memorabilia, either a shirt, a badge, an old programme or anything else that is Boro related.
That obviously means that it will be Middlesbrough who play in the first FA Cup final in the new stadium. Well it does if you believe in hocus-pocus anyway. I believe in it but I'll still be trying to edge this week's betting as best as I can...
There's some interesting odds and offers available for this match and we'll start with the Total Bet coupon. You can stake a tenner with Total Bet on anything you want because you get it back from us anyway, as well as a £10 free bet in your new Total Bet account. Full details of this offer can be found at the bottom of this page.
One method that has won me a lot of money this season is using Total Bet's full-time/half-time score coupon and edging. For example, a draw at half time, Boro win is 7/2, so if I take it I can place another three bets and then I have four chances at getting it right. Here's my selections.
Draw/Draw 4/1
Draw/Middlesbrough 7/2
Middlesbrough/Draw 14/1
Middlesbrough/Middlesbrough 12/5
You can do the same with the correct score odds, for example, if your selection is Middlesbrough 1-0 at 13/2, you can make another six selections and give yourself the best possible chance of claiming a winner. Of course, you reduce your profit but as you get a tenner back from us and free bets as well, I think it's worth edging it like this.
If you fancy a straightforward Middlesbrough win, as I most certainly do, then you should go with Sean Graham who has easily the best odds on that particular outcome. Sean is quoting 13/10 for Middlesbrough and the best I found anywhere else was 11/10 so grab it quick before he realises.
You also get a free £25 bet from Sean Graham which you can use on the replay if your 13/10 fails to come in.
One of the best offers out there at the moment is from Bet Fred who will match the winnings on your first bet, up to £100. Bet Fred's best bet is a Coventry win at 5/2, half a point better than anyone else, so if you really fancy Coventry to win, Fred is the man to see.
You'll also get terrific odds on Boro's three strikers to score at any time in the match and all three selections qualify for the bonus. Take a look at these.
Yakubu 11/8
Viduka 13/8
Hasselbaink 7/4
Remember, that is to score at any time in the match and if it happens, your winnings will be doubled. Click the banner below to visit Fred and please send him my very best regards.
Finally, let's have a look at the spread betting options for this match. I've gone with Sporting Index today because their prices are far superior to the other spreaders out there. All options are still available to buy and sell and the Middlesbrough win index currently stands at 13-14.5. Hit the Sporting Index banner to browse their coupon.
I like Sporting Index a lot because their current offer is pretty much unbeatable right now. Here are the details...
Open an account and you'll get a £150 supremacy bet on any live Premiership, Championship or League match after you've placed five bets (each bet must have a potential win and a potential loss of £20 or more).
Alternatively, choose £100 cash after placing five settled bets or one of the following free bets after placing ten settled bets. Each qualifying bet must have a potential win and a potential loss of £20 or more.
They'll also refund your losses if your first bet is a loser (maximum refund is £50).
You just can't say fairer than that really.
Whatever you do this weekend, good luck, have fun and I hope your team wins. As long as it's Middlesbrough of course.
