Superb night last night for Delay-react-traders , too many successes to list. More of the same please!

2pm – Jordan v Indonesia – 1.24 home – this is a friendly played in Amman. We have a Jordanian side who have lost their last 5 against the likes of Iraq, Syria and Oman and you want me to back them at 1.24?  Only 2 defeats at home in 18 though augurs well, as does a recent friendly 1-0 win against Indonesia. Only 1 defeat in last 9 friendlies at home, included only 3 wins.

Indonesia’s recent wins have come against brunei, Timor-Leste and Singapore.

Only 2 wins in last 9 friendlies  – 5 consecutive clean sheets might be an angle in.. Obvious to lay the fav which is a poor side, against a poorer side and hope Indonesians have clean sheet itis again.

6pm – Panthrakikos v Apollon Smirnis – 1.63 home – Greek Cup not an ideal betting medium -11th in Super league v 4th in Football league.

No win in 6 for pan includes 4 1-1;s  Recent 0-1 loss to Oly care of a late goal so defence seems to be in tact at home.

No win in 3 at home  includes a 1-1 and 0-1 defeat. Only 1 draw in last 13 at home, Only 2 draws in 30 at home. 19 clean sheets in last 30 is quite impressive.

2 consecutive 1-1 draws in the Cup could end given the draw avoidance at home?

This is a 2nd leg after a 1-1 at Apollon. So Pan have the away goal and another clean sheet will suffice in what is likely to be a dullfest .

4 defeats and a win in last 5 cup at home-vulnerability or just unlucky in meeting better sides?

2 77th+ minute goals in first leg could be repeated today.Apollon have not scored in 4 of their last 5 matches away.

Could be a 0-0, 1-0 type of scoreline if Pan continue dishing out the clean sheets at home.

745pm -Leicester v Wolves – 1.5 home

Wolves unbeate in last relevant head to head in 2012, gap to others .

LEAGUE POSITION – 2nd v 19th  -gone are the days of  a Premiership Wolves. They could be a League 1 Wolves. What have they done to the club?
HOME TEAM – -past fixtures, forthcoming fixtures and likely team -Leicester
RECENT HOME FORM – WWWWWWLDWWDLWW -only lost to top 5 at home. Not played 17th to 20th inclusive at home but 6-0, 2-2, 2-0 , 2-0 against bottom 4 at home.
RECENT FORM OVERALL- WWLWDLLDWWWW -clear what Wolves need to do. Dropped Leicester points care of 3 1-0’s lately and a 0-0 suggests a clean sheet for Wolves is a building block to 1 point at least. 2 1-0 wins lately for Leicester and sandwiched between those a 6-1 and 4-0 win so they can really let loose.
GOAL TRENDS – 57% overs at home.0.79 conceded at home on average.Scored 12 at home in first half hour but regular goalscorers throughout the 90.Have only conceded 2 2nd half home goals, so if 0-0 at halftime we must favour Leicester. Leicester have scored first in 11 of 14 home matches this season.
STREAKS – no defeat in 5 overall. Have scored in last 4 overall.
AWAY TEAM – past fixtures -forthcoming fixtures and likely team – Wolves
RECENT AWAY FORM – LLWWWLLLLWLLD – all matches away to top 11 have resulted in defeat., conceding 2 or 3 in all bar one of the matches. Not played Leicester away yet, but beat them 2-1 at Molineux. Wolves scored in all defeats away to top 5.
RECENT OVERALL FORM -LLLWWLWLLLDDL- recent wins v 14th, 15th and 23rd Only 1 win home and away v top 13 was that win against lEicester.
GOAL TRENDS -50/50 overs away from home. Near 50/50 re scoring first away so DRT’ers and enhanced bettors note that Wolves could score first then eventually capitulate.
STREAKS -6 overall without a win.
CONCLUSION/NOTES/STANDOUT STATS – Wolves score and lose against tip 11 away from home, but beat Leicester 2-1 way back IN september. A lot of water under the dridge since then. Only defeats for Leicester at home v top 5 so an ability to cope elsewhere. Could score 2 tonight. Indeed both teams might score. Wolves have scored 1st in nearly half of their away matches. They find top 10 too much but could be competitive. If you fancy the Leicester win, then 2-1, 3-1, 2-0 kind of scorelines seem to dominate Wolves defeats.
Was the Wolves win v leicester an early season hiccup?

745pm – Vitesse v Ajax – 1.81 away – Dutch cup is as unappealing as the Greek Cup. 3rd and 4th in top flight should make for an entertaining tussle.

Ajax won 5 on the trot in head to heads and Vitesse have won the last 2 matches.

These 2 met 4 days ago when Vitesse won 3-2 aftergoing 2-0 down. I’m not going to research further. Thisis the springboard into this match you suspect.

an ability for both sides to score. A knowledge that Ajax can score against them away . Only 1 draw in 17 in the cup for Vitesse.

Ajax might react to conceding 3 2nd half goals when 0-2 up , just as Norwich reacted to a 5-0 defeat with solid defence last night. If they take the lead they should be trickier to score against , that 3-2 defeat from the jaws of victory so fresh in the mind.

Ajax score loads in the cup  14-1-6-2-4-5-3-1-4-5-2-3-4-2-3-2-3 – very consistent and over 3 years . 3 consecutive cup clean sheets.

Only 1 draw in 15 cup matches. have won 8 of last 9 cup matches, only 2-2 v twente stopped that.

I don’t like getting involved in games exactly where the fixture is repeated so soon as teams can react instantly to last match. Form points to 2+ goals from Ajax, and not losing this time. This is a 1 legged match.

9pm – Atl Madrid v Sevilla – 1.75 home

 

STANDOUT STATS

Only 2 draws at home in last 30 for Panthrakikos.
