Football Tips
Welcome to the BettingOdds.com Football Tips page where we collate Betting Tips from our collection of Football Tipsters. Read More
We have several in-house die-hard football fans who bet on football religiously and we couple them with Twitter Tipsters who love to have a bet both in the midweek and weekend.
Our tips are a variety of single game bets, Bet Builders, Accas and a variety of Prop Bets, so however you like to bet on Football, we should have you covered.
- 15 goals in 21 appearances since arriving from AFC Wimbledon in January
- Much better price than top-scorer Paul Mullin who has the same amount of goals since Palmer's arrival.
- Wrexham are unbeaten at home since November and since then they have played 14 matches at home, W12 D2.
- Grimsby have not tasted defeat away from Blundell Park in their last eight matches
- Town enter this final in superb form, unbeaten in six and on the back of an impressive 3-1 aggregate win over Northampton Town in the semis.
- Darrell Clarke's men are not in great form, having won just two of their last six matches
- The 30-year-old Englishman started his career primarily as a forward but in recent years has converted into a defensive role and it's one he has thrived in this year for the Stags. Hawkins has lost none of his aggression in the role though, picking up 13 yellows in his 41 league starts this term.
- Wilson has had an impressive first season for the Valiants, notching 11 goals. His output in recent weeks has been fantastic, scoring in his last three outings and having a colossal 16 shots in those matches. The 26-year-old has had seven shots on target in his last three games and has cleared this line on ten occasions this season.
- Luis Diaz has recorded 1+ shot on target in all of his last four Champions League appearances
- Vinicius has registered seven shots on target in his last four games for Madrid.
- Casemiro has three yellows in the competition this season and was shown 11 in Real's title winning campaign in La Liga
- Trent has two cautions in the Champions League this term and will be up against Vinicius who is averaging over 2 fouls drawn per game.
- Huddersfield are the Championship's most prolific side from set pieces with 20 goals, that is just over 31% of their overall total.
- Their main threat, is Tom Lees. The Terriers defender tops their charts for aerials won, averaging 4.2 per game, whilst no defender at the club has scored more league goals (3) or averaged more shots per game (0.5) then him.
- Lees registered a shot in each of the semi-final legs against Luton meaning that he has had eight shots in his last twelve starts
- Lee Nicholls booking
- Huddersfield win
- Game to feature over zero cards
- Brice Samba booking
- Forest win
- Game to feature over zero cards
- For the reasons outlined above, I have combined a Huddersfield win with a Lees goal and a Nicholls card using Bet365’s ‘Bet Builder’ at 150/1 for a chunky longshot. Recent history shows that these are usually tight affairs so hopefully this punt has some legs.
- Tomori has had an outstanding season with AC Milan in Serie A.
- The likes of Coady, White and Mings have had indifferent campaigns.
- Tomori is probably fourth choice CB at the moment
- With injuries and a back three a possibility - the 14/1 price seems long
- Neymar has scored 71 goals in 117 international appearances
- Neymar is Brazil's primary penalty taker
- Brazil are 5/1 to win the World Cup so the bookies consider them to be favourites to go deep into the competition
Football Accumulator Tips
We scour the stats and odds every day to bring you the best accumulator tips.
- St Pats are in mixed form at the moment, winning two, losing two and drawing two of their last six. Dundalk seem much more consistent, winning five of their last six
- Shamrock Rovers attempt to wash away the disappointment of their shock loss last week against Drogheda United. That was the first loss for Rovers in 14 games and they will be desperate to start another unbeaten run here. Talking of unbeaten runs, Shelbourne have won last four straight but the majority of those have been against teams in the bottom half of the table. I'm backing Shamrock to get the show back on the road in front of their own fans.
- Waterford are just two spots above Treaty but are 10 points and +14 goals better than them in the league. Waterford are on the back of a five game winning run and will be heavy favourites here. Treaty are winless in their last six and are drawing far too many games.
- Independiente have had a really poor start to the season, winning just three games from 14, although they did beat Huracan last time out 3-0. Estudiantes have won eight of their 15 games and beat Independiente 2-1 at home on the first day of the season.
- Home advantage is massive in Wrexham's game with Grimsby. The hosts have won 12 of their last 14 at home in the league going unbeaten since November.
- Mansfield snook into the play-offs and the momentum is now with the Stags after two good wins over Northampton in the semi-finals
- Real Madrid were outplayed for the majority of their matches against PSG, Chelsea and Man City. The lengthy break since their league season came to a close may not necessarily benefit Madrid.
- LAFC are top of the Western Conference, with Saturday's opponents winless in five on the road in the MLS, conceding 3+ goals in their last three.
- Vitesse bring a slight lead into this one after beating Alkmaar 2-1 at the Gelredome. AZ will be encouraged though by the stats from that game, they enjoyed 63% possession and have 12 shots to Arnhem's six.
- Aalborg finished a place and a point above Viborg in the league but come into this one in torrid form, winless in seven, with just one point in that time. Viborg, on the other hand, have lost just once in twelve matches and won the corresponding league fixture 5-2.
- The Big Green are unbeaten since the opening day of the season and have the chance to go top here. Santos started great but have only won one of their last four, which has seen them slide down the table
- Again in Serie A, the league leaders Corinthians take on America MG who are currently located in 9th. Corinthians have won four and drawn two of their opening seven games, whilst America are winless in their last two.
- Both men have picked up 10 cautions for the season and Worrall picked up a yellow card in both play-off semi finals. Worrall will likely face up against Thomas here who is a spiky character and one of the hardest players to defend against in the Championship. He is quick, full of tricks and isn't shy of a late challenge himself. I wouldn't be surprised to see either man booked, possibly at the same time.
- The 21-year-old son of former Forest striker David Johnson has been a revelation this season, netting 18 times on the way to Wembley. He leads both teams for goals, shots and shots on target and he manager five shots on target in the semi finals. He is 13/5 to have 2+ shots on target in the 90 minutes at Paddy Power and I think that's a bet that could definitely happen. He has cleared this line on nine occasions already this season.
- Sinani ranks second for goals and third for shots and shots on target for the Terrriers this season . He has hit this line in his last three games including the two play-off semis so is a man in form.

Football Betting Tips FAQ's
We've compiled a list of questions that should help you understand the types of football tips featured on BettingOdds.com.
What types of football tips do you produce?
We don't like to restrict ourselves to particular types of bet when football tipping, but there are three specific types of tip we love to give our users:
- Shots on target tips - predicting a particular player to have one or more shots on target in the match.
- To be shown a card tips - predicting a particular player to be shown a card in the match.
- Anytime goal scorer tips - predicting a particular player to score a goal at any point in the match.
We'll also put up multi tips and bet builder's using the expertise we have on these particular bet type.
What odds are your football tips?
We aim to give our users a choice of odds when putting up a tip, so our football predictions will range in price from:
- Short odds up to 4/1
- Medium priced odds up to 12/1
- Longer prices up to over 100/1!
All of our football predictions are well studied and we publish the reasons why we're predicting the outcome.
What counts as a shot on target with the bookmakers?
It depends on what feed that bookmaker takes their football content from. Opta is very popular with the bookmakers and they define a shot on target as:
- any shot that goes into the net regardless of whether it was meant as a shot or not - e.g. a cross that goes in.
- any shot at goal that is saved by the goalkeeper which was definitely going in.
- a block by a player if they are the last line of defence and the keeper has no chance of saving.
Shots can be classified as with your foot or head. It's worth noting that sometimes there is a grey area as to whether a shot on target has been counted so it's worth keeping an eye on social media, especially @BettingOddsUK if it's a featured football tip on our site as we'll be watching the game like a hawk looking for the win!
Who has the most yellow cards this season?
There are two types of main card betting. Overs/Unders on the team cards points betting, which means that you're betting that there will be either more or less (sometimes the same) booking points in that game than the bookmakers 'line'. Depending on the ref or teams involved this can be anything up from 30 booking points to 60 booking points. Standard 10 points for a yellow card or 25 for a red.
Our own player to be shown a card tip typically focuses on the individual player and we'll look at their stats for the season, the opponent and the referee when making out selection.
Here's a list of the highest offenders when it comes to yellow cards in the Premier League this season:
- 5 - Emmanuel Dennis (Watford)
- 5 - Oliver Skipp (Tottenham Hotspur)
- 4 - Cristian Romero (Tottenham Hotspur)
- 4 - Mohamed Salisu (Southampton)
- 4 - Matt Ritchie (Newcastle United)
- 4 - Jamaal Lascelles (Newcastle United)
- 4 - Paul Pogba (Manchester United)
- 4 - Luke Shaw (Manchester United)
- 4 - Fred (Manchester United)
Which ref gives the most cards?
We like to pick out Cards Betting as one of our regular football tipping features and we look at the referee stats to help us arrive at our tip. We've highlighted the top five referees in terms of yellow cards per game:
- Jarred Gillett - 6.00 p/g
- Peter Bankes - 5.80 p/g
- Kevin Friend - 5.75
- Darren England - 5.25 p/g
- David Coote - 5.17 p/g
The most lenient ref in the Premier League this season from refs who have officiated in 5 or more games is Jonathan Moss who is averaging 1.86 yellow cards from 7 appearances.
What happens if my selection Anytime Scorer bet doesn't play in the match?
If your player doesn't take part in the match your bet will be voided by the online bookmaker and you'll get your stake returned. If your player comes on as a substitute and doesn't score your bet will be a loser, just as it will be if your player gets substituted having not scored. Whilst we aim to get our anytime scorer tip up as early as possible before a match, you may be best waiting until team news before placing your bet to check whether our selection is playing or not.
What is a bet builder tip?
A bet builder is a type of multiple bet where the bookmaker allows you to pick from markets on the same event and put them all together combining their odds. Most of the bookies featured on BettingOdds.com have a 'bet builder' type bet available for punters, although they may be called something different on their site. We've compiled a glossary to help you find your way around their sites:
- Bet365 - Bet Builder
- Paddy Power - Same Game Multi
- William Hill - #YourOdds
- Bet Victor - Bet Builder
- Betfair - Same Game Multi
What is the probability percentage?
At BettingOdds.com we're proud to be home of the Probability Percentage rating given to every odds on the site. This rating shows you exactly what percentage chance the bookmakers' give that selection of winning, simplifying how we present the odds and giving you a bit more understanding as to what they actually. mean. We also show the odds in traditional Fractional or Decimal form.
Where else can I get football predictions?
Whilst we have our daily football tipping on this page, we also do match previews for all of the big games and via our social media channels on Twitter @BettingOddsUK and YouTube.
