Boxing Day Football – Betting Tips

December 26th - Football betting tips

Nothing beats football on Boxing Day, and we have 7 festive matches which some crucial matches at both ends of the table. Here are my predictions and as usual, an accumulator tip!

Chelsea v Fulham - 1:00pm

The West London derby kicks off the day, as Fulham go to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea. Fulham lost 5-0 to Manchester United in their most recent game, and were beyond terrible for most of the match. Chelsea have drawn their last two matches, and find themselves 11 points below Manchester City, yet still think they can win the league. Fulham are 10/1 to win, with Chelsea at 1/3. Chelsea should win this  comfortably.

Correct Score; 2-0 (5/1)     First Goal Scorer; Didier Drogba for Chelsea (3/1)
Special; Result after 60 minutes - Draw (15/8)

Liverpool v Blackburn - 3:00pm

Blackburn and manager Steve Kean are under tremendous amount of pressure and it's not going to get easier for the team as they travel to Anfield and Old Trafford in the next week. Liverpool have struggled against lower opposition some times this season, so will need to make sure they wrap up points against a team with such low confidence. Liverpool are 2/7 to get the win, with Blackburn at 10/1, with a draw at 4/1. Should be simple, home win.

Correct Score; 3-0 (7/1)     First Goal Scorer; Craig Bellamy for Liverpool (9/2)
Special; Handicap - Blackburn +2 (EVENS)

West Brom v Manchester City - 3:00pm

West Brom have produced back to back away wins, but now need to improve their home form as they face the top side in the Premier League, Manchester City this Boxing Day. Manchester City have bounced back well since their defeat, and look tight at the back, and have so many players that can hurt the opposition. Over the next two games, Manchester City have tougher fixtures over the Christmas period, so it's important to stay on top going into the new year. Manchester City are 4/9 to win with West Brom at 13/2. I can't see this Manchester City side dropping points.

Correct Score; 1-4 (22/1)      First Goal Scorer; Mario Balotelli for Manchester City (3/1)
Special; West Brom to be winning at half time, Manchester City to win at full time (28/1)
