I do not pretend to win every day, or week, that would just be ridiculous and as I have told you many times, the only 100% sure thing and there is not much you can say that about in gambling, is that I will bet 600 + losers in 2014. What is almost as certain, is that the clubgowi newsletter service will make readers who follow it long term and bet all red type selections, somewhere between 100 and 300 times their unit stake over the 12 months. That is not "guaranteed", you will never hear me say that, but it is far and away the most likely thing to happen.

Leicester City have one foot and four toes in the Premier League and just need another seven points to seal the deal. City are VERY strong after the break, collecting 83 points at an average of over 2.18 per game. They are 24-11-3 in the second half, 11-8-0 on the road and overall have taken 16 points from 13 matches in which they have trailed.

Tours are only two points off third place and with home games against Creteil and Auxerre up next, with fancy their chances of a big promotion push, especially if they can avoid defeat today. Two things about that, I do not think it will be so easy now that Laval are on a roll and if there is a team unsuited to playing for a point in Ligue 2, it would be the visitors.

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew is still suspended and banned from St James' Park this evening, which means no assistance from him against visitors Everton. Despite a respectable 8th place in the English Premier League for Newcastle United, 2014 has not gone well.

We have opposed Chamois Niortais FC in a couple of Ligue 2 road games recently, most notably at Nimes, when they suffered a heavy defeat. Three points today at Stade René Gaillard would be hugely valuable, taking them not just above Angers, but up into 3rd.

Just three home wins for Eintracht Frankfurt this season at the Commerzbank-Arena, way below the Bundesliga average of 44.39%, indicate where they have fallen short, they had seven at the same stage last season. Today they entertain a SC Freiburg side who have had an even greater fall from grace, 5th last season, they are now in the bottom two and desperate for points.

I wrote in the results update on Wednesday, that " it "feels" like we are about to go on another strong run". That hasn't happened yet, but we had a small profit on the Europa League games yesterday and took an outright position and already have wonderful value with that. The vibe is very good going into the weekend and we have six newsletters scheduled over the next three days, which will cost long term subscribers about 8 euros.

Normally I would be loathe to bet a team giving up a big handicap start in a match they did not need to win. However, like in the first leg and as we saw from Atletico last night, PSG are a team looking to establish themselves at the very highest level and every performance is the chance to improve,learn something and perhaps more importantly, throw down a marker to the more established major European clubs. PSG have an eight point lead at the top of Ligue 1 and will be able to coast to the title there and I do not think they will be overly concerned about the upcoming domestic fixture.
