Premiership / La Liga Value Bets Mar 13-14

The chase for the English premiership league title hots up this weekend as all 3 of the chasing sides have what look like easy wins on paper with Man UTD vs Fulham, Chelsea vs Westham in a London derby and Arsenal traveling to Hull, likely to be without Fabregas. Arsenal and UTD are flying off the back of big European football wins and it would hardly be surprising to see Rooney and Bendtner continue where they left off but value is thin in the anytime scorer markets on those 2 so better left alone. Same story in the Chelsea game where nothing stands out in terms of value betting.

Elsewhere in the English Premiership, Everton travel to Birmingham where there could be some value in backing the over 2.5 @ odds against and Spurs resume their battle for 4th against Blackburn. City travel to Sunderland where the hosts have regained some form, beating Bolton 4-0 midweek with a Darrent Bent hattrick.

In The Spanish football betting nothing appeals at all on saturday night or early Sunday but Villarreal vs Xerez, Valladolid vs Real Madrid and the game of the Spanish Football weekend - Barcelona vs Valencia all look like good matches with potential for goals..... stay tuned for expert value premiership / La Liga betting picks......
