Zurich Premiership - The Betting Angle 3


By No.10 and his Welly
September 26 2003

Another exciting week of betting here, hopefully providing some tips and insights into the weekend games. Last weeks games threw up a few surprises, like Irish beating Gloucs, and there are a few tight ones in this weeks fixtures. WellSaint has also given me his
opinions via a mobile phone (by the sounds of it on
top of a hill somewhere).

Leeds v Rotherham: Although Leeds have started badly,
Rotherham look worse. From what I have seen it’s the
case of too bad team here, although Leeds do have some
quality players in the back line so I expect them to
win this one, by at least 14. WellSaint agrees with me
here as he says they should win by 10 +.

Sale v Bath: Friday night game again for Sale, against
one of the form teams in the league at the moment,
Bath. Having seen Bath firsthand last weekend, they
looked a strong outfit, albeit against a poor Saints
pack. I think it could be an away win here, possibly
by a very small margin such as 3. WellSaint wonders
which Sale will turn up, but he fancies them to win by
about the same margin.

Saints v Wasps: I would love us to win, but I fear
they will kill us in the scrum, but at least the
lineout can be no worse than last weekend. Although
hiccupping against Quins, Wasps look as functional as
last season and I think they will win by 7. WellSaint
thinks this could go either way (heart ruling head!!)

Quins v Irish: Quins look hot so far this season and
have a history of doing well at home. I expect them to
overcome Irish by 7 +. WellSaint says they should
triumph by 8-10.

Glous v Sarries: Who would have though a year ago that
this game could be close? Saracens looking a far
better team this year, but WellSaint and I both agree
that home advantage should be too much and Glous
should win by 10, although WellSaint says by 6.

Leicester v Newcastle: Could be a thumping, although
the Falcons won last weekend, but they only ever seem
to win at home. I think this could be by as much as 20
or more, WellSaint says by at least 10 points for the
Tiggers.

Lots of good odds around on the betting sites with
handicaps like we have suggested, so its got to be
worth a punt!
