S.P.Read Esq: Republic Of Ireland v England
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the 1pm kick off at the Aviva between REPUBLIC OF IRELAND v ENGLAND and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
The stars aligned yesterday and all four of the predictions came right on ‘Stupendous Saturday’:
WILLIAMS will win the French Open
GOLDEN HORN will win the Derby
BARCELONA will win the Champions League
AMERICAN PHAROAH will win the Belmont Stakes
Unfortunately, despite the advice the recommended trade on Star Spreads was a loser 🙁 I bought bookings on the Champions League Final at 44 but it made up at only 30.
Not quite as attractive fare today – although looking forward to seeing Hurricane Fly back in action in France.
Djokovic is a 1/7 chance with Star Sports to wrap up the French Open whilst at 1pm the Aviva Stadium plays host to the Republic Of Ireland against England.
It’s hard to have a strong view on the match for no other reason than it’s not hugely significant beyond pride and the ROI have the distraction of their far more important Euro 2016 qualifier against Scotland less than a week away. England have less pressure on them given qualification now looks a formality.
A 1-1 correct score should be an odds-on shot given it’s finished that way the last FOUR times these two have met!
England’s resurgence after desperation in Brazil has at face value been strong with them winning seven of their last eight matches.
Rooney is in the starting 11 for the lunchtime clash and he now needs just two goals to equal Bobby Charlton’s all-time national goalscoring record.
