Atlanta Falcons vs Philadelphia Eagles

The new season of the NFL is under way and out of first round games I picked this one. I think there is a clear difference in the quality of these teams. The home team ended last season in the 12th place, losing 6 out of last 8 games. I don't expect them to improve much these season if preseason is much of an indicator. Away team was better placed last season and they did a decent job in the preseason. Opening night jitters coupled with the apparent difference in quality should be enough of a reason to place this bet. Smaller stake. Good Luck.

Southampton vs Manchester United

This game will be the end of the very important week for Manchester United. With a very good result in a game against Liverpool, they head to Netherlands for a Champions League game against PSV on Tuesday. After that comes an away game against Southampton, which they have a priority to win and keep pace with the city rivals. Southampton has been hoping for a better start of the season, but 3 draws and a win is not bad either. They will press for the win here and that will open them up for counter attacks. The main problem so far has been a lack of consolidation in the back line and that's where I see Manchester United taking advantage of this game. The key point to watch here is the strong midfield of the United squad which will be the catalyst of all action on the pitch. Bookmakers priced them at 2.52 and I am sure as the game draws near market will recognise the value here. Medium stake for this one. Good Luck.

Shandong Luneng vs Hangzhou Greentown - 2.50 goals in ordinary time at odds 1.60

Asian leagues tend to gear towards being efficient and with more often than not league average is well over 2.5 goals. This game is interesting because the home team has a very high goals per game average with it being over 3.5 goals. They need a win today and they way to it is by scoring more goals than your opponent. That is the strategy they rely on and I think there is a good chance of this being a very efficient game. I would like to see the odds being a bit higher, but these are good enough for me to place a medium stake. Good Luck.

West Ham United vs Newcastle United - x or 2 at odds 1.75

West Ham has made some spectacular so far but to no avail. They have 2 wins this season in the premiership and both wins were against championship contenders, Man United and Arsenal. I already wrote about them and their coach. I have my doubts about Slaven's coaching skills.. Seeing a lot of his games, I found that where he lacks in strategy and knowledge, he makes up in his ability to motivate the team. But that only works when you are playing a stronger team, a contender, where players are naturally more likely to play better. But when it comes to playing against a team of similar or lesser strength, well that's where problems are visible. 2 wins against contenders and 2 games lost against Leicester and Bournemouth? Newcastle is a better team and even though they are positioned poorly, I expect them to turn the things around and challenge West Ham. Medium stake here. Good Luck.
