Trades Completed in Detail

Date: 1st April
Time: 5.00pm
Fixture: Italian Serie A
Teams: Lecce v AC Milan - SCORE: 1-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by AC Milan. We were going to go on the Liverpool match in the afternoon but aren't 100% on that one as Liverpool only won 1-0 at home last time those 2 met. AC Milan should win this and as the odds on the draw are good there should be a better profit on this one than other games in the afternoon.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.85. As Lecce got the unexpected goal the odds weren't good enough to trade out so we hung in there and got 100% profit. The trade out became available after 76 minutes for those that wanted to minimise the liability. £55 up for the day!


Profit made on this trade = £100


Date: 1st April
Time: 12.45pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Birmingham v Chelsea - SCORE: 0-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Chelsea. Should be pretty straight forward trade with nice profit. Chelsea have not been playing at their greatest lately but should win here without too much exertion.
Our Trading Result:
Missed the first half of this one. Layed the draw at 3.05 just after half time. We traded out at 75 minutes at 1.80 to minimise the loss on this one. The 0-0 bet we had also minimised the loss further. Ended up down £45.00. Not a great loss and easy to recoup.


Profit made on this trade = £-45


Date: 2nd April
Time: 4.00pm
Fixture: Spanish Primera
Teams: Osasuna v Getafe - SCORE: 0-4
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by hopefully Osasuna. They will be chasing a win here as they are hot on the heals of Real Madrid at the top of the table. They have only drawn 4 times in the season and just once at 0-0 which was against Getafe!
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.90. Betfair messed this trade up as they forgot to take it our of suspended mode!!! Not a problem though as the match ended with a victory for Getafe and 100% profit for us!


Profit made on this trade = £100


Date: 3rd April
Time: 8.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Blackburn v Wigan - SCORE: 1-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Blackburn. Blackburn have only drawn 4 times all season (all 0-0) and their home record is excellent. They also beat Wigan 0-3 last time they visited them so should be able to get a win here. As they always seem to draw 0-0 it's definately one to cover with a 0-0 correct score bet on the side.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.50. Wigan got the first goal at 52 minutes and the odds for the trade out just got back to 3.50 as they were the underdogs. We traded out after 70 minutes for odds of 4.10. Not a huge profit but a profit none the less. Could have traded out at 5.00 on 84 minutes until Blackburn equalized.


Profit made on this trade = £20


Date: 4th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: Champions League
Teams: AC Milan v Lyon - SCORE: 3-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by AC Milan. When it gets this close to the end of a tournament there often aren't a lot of goals but lots of opportunities to score. Lyon are not hot favorites in the tournament and it should go Milans way.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.80. We could have traded out at 4.80 after AC Milan scored at 25 minutes but stayed with it. Unfortunately Lyon equalized and we lost the opportunity to trade out. AC Milan scored again towards the end of the second half and we got out at 15.00. Huge profit and great match.


Profit made on this trade = £80


Date: 5th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: Champions League
Teams: Barcelona v Benfica - SCORE: 2-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Barcelona. They are at home, favorites to win the tornament and Benfica are the rank outsiders. If this doesn't result in a good trade nothing will.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 7.00. Barcelona scored after 19 minutes and the odds were great as expected. We traded out at 15.00.


Profit made on this trade = £55


Date: 6th April
Time: 8.00pm
Fixture: UEFA Cup
Teams: Middlesbrough v Basel - SCORE: 4-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Middlesbrough with luck. They are on a good run and at home which will give them a good boost. We'll still back the 0-0 draw in this one as well as Basel are 2-0 up on their home leg and a draw will do them.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.75. We traded out after Middlesbrough scored their second goal early in the second half. Basel scored first so the odds wew not there for the trade after the first goal. We traded out at 6.60.


Profit made on this trade = £50


Date: 8th April
Time: 3.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Portsmouth v Blackburn - SCORE: 2-2
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by either team. With Portsmouth on a winning run and teetering on the edge of relegation they will be playing for the win here. Especially as they know West Brom who they are battling with at the bottom are on a bad run at the moment. Should be a good match.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.50. Blackburn scored first and the odds only allowed us to trade out at 4.00. We stayed in the trade and got out after the second goal by Blackburn at 4.00. Not a great profit on this one.


Profit made on this trade = £10


Date: 9th April
Time: 4.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Man Utd v Arsenal - SCORE: 2-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by hopefully Man Utd. We should get odds no matter which team score. Might be worth sticking a correct score bet on 1-1 as well in case there Arsenal score first and Man Utd equalise.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.35. We traded out after the first goal by Man Utd in the second half. Another great profitable trade.


Profit made on this trade = £40


Date: 9th April
Time: 2.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Liverpool v Bolton - SCORE: 1-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Liverpool. There are surprisingly good odds on the draw on this one and it represents great value. There were 4 goals when they last met and with Liverpool at home this should go their way and present good odds to trade out on.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 4.50. Liverpool scored the only goal of the game and gave us the odds we needed to trade out. Good trade. Straight forward and profitable.


Profit made on this trade = £75


Date: 11th April
Time: 8.00pm
Fixture: Coupe de France
Teams: Lyon v Marseille - SCORE: 1-2
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Lyon. This should be a good match. Lyon have only lost 2 matches all season and beat Marseille when they last visited in the league 2-1. Although this is the cup and a different game Lyon should still get the lead and win.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.80. Marseille scored first at 18 minutes which didn't give us the odds we wanted to trade out and Lyon equalised 5 minutes after the first goal. Marseille took the lead again at 65 minutes giving trade out odds of 3.50. We waited till 88 minutes and got out at 6.20.


Profit made on this trade = £55


Date: 12th April
Time: 8.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Portsmouth v Arsenal - SCORE: 1-1
Our Recommendation:
We missed this one last time as it was postponed. Lets try it again. Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Arsenal. The Gunners beat Pompey 4-0 at home and although Portsmouth have won their last 2 matches this shouldn't end in a draw and should go Arsenals way fairly easily.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.95. We traded out after Arsenal scored at 36 minutes for odds of 6.00. Perfect trade. Easy profit.


Profit made on this trade = £60


Date: 14th April
Time: 7.30pm
Fixture: Spanish Primera
Teams: Barcelona v Villarreal - SCORE: 1-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Barcelona. Also we will be having a side trade on this on backing under 2.5 goals. Villarreal love to draw matches and last time Barcelona were away to them they won 0 - 2. Barcelona are 11 points clear at the top and won't we trying their hardest to win. The main bet though is to lay and back.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.80. We also backed under 2.5 goals at 1.94 with a £50 side bet. 11 minutes into the first half and Barcelona give us our trade out. Easy money. We stayed with the under 2.5 goals bet till the end and made 100% profit on that bet.


Profit made on this trade = £105


Date: 15th April
Time: 7.00pm
Fixture: Turkish Super League
Teams: Manisaspor v Fenerbahce - SCORE: 5-3
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Fenerbahce. Fenerbahce have only lost 2 matches all season and although they are away should get the win against an ailing Manisaspor.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 5.20. Fenerbahce scored first after 13 mintes and gave us our trade out. Loads of goals and the match went against them in the end. Easy trade again.


Profit made on this trade = £50


Date: 15th April
Time: 3.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Arsenal v West Brom - SCORE: 3-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Arsenal. Arsenal are at home so should win this fairly easily.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 6.00. Arsenal scored just before half time and we traded out at 9.00.


Profit made on this trade = £40


Date: 16th April
Time: 4.00pm
Fixture: Spanish Primera Division
Teams: Osasuna v Malaga - SCORE: 1-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Osasuna. Malaga are floundering at the bottom of the division and Osasuna being at home should make this an easy one for them. Odds on the draw at the moment arre around 4.60 which is excellent value.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 4.55 and traded out after Osasuna scored a penalty on 31 minutes at odds of 7.00.


Profit made on this trade = £40


Date: 18th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: Champions League
Teams: AC Milan v Barcelona - SCORE: 0-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by hopefully AC Milan. This should produce a winner at this stage in the tournament but won't excpect too many goals. Worth covering with a 0-0 correct score bet too.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.25. Barcelona scored first in the 57th minute which only gave small profit tradeout at odds of 4.00. We waited until 72 minutes and traded out at 4.70. Not as much profit as if Milan had scored but profit none the less.


Profit made on this trade = £40


Date: 19th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: Champions League
Teams: Arsenal v Villarreal - SCORE: 1-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Arsenal. Again there should be a winner and Arsenal are at home where they will have great support and should get up and win this.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.85. Arsenal scored on the cusp of half time and gave us the odds we needed to trade out. Another great trade with nice profits.


Profit made on this trade = £60


Date: 20th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: UEFA Cup
Teams: Schalke v Sevilla - SCORE: 0-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Schalke hopefully. There should be a winner in this one tonight and our money is on Schalke at home.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.35. Unfortunately the worse case scenario reared its ugly head for the first time in ages. The game ended 0-0 so we lost our lay bet. We had a 0-0 correct score covering the match but still made a loss on this one.


Profit made on this trade = £-63


Date: 21st April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: French Ligue 2
Teams: Bastia v Caen - SCORE: 0-2
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Bastia. Bastia have only lost once at home this season and Caen gave them their biggest defeat so far. There should be a few goals here and a few oportunities to trade out.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.35. Caen scored twice in 3 minutes towards the end of the first half and we didn't get enough time to trade out before the second goal. Stuck with the match till full time and grabbed 100% profit. Not what we thought would happen but worked out very well.


Profit made on this trade = £80


Date: 22nd April
Time: 5.15pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Chelsea v Liverpool - SCORE: 1-2
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by either team but hopefully Chelsea. Don't think we'll get the trade out we need if Liverpool score but also don't think this will end in a draw. Someone has to give in this clash. Will be a great match.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.20. Liverpool scored first and gave odds of 3.40 which wasn't good enout to make a profit but would have got our money back. At half time with the scores the same we could have taken 3.80. Liverpools second goal ensured a great profit.


Profit made on this trade = £60


Date: 22nd April
Time: 3.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Newcastle v West Brom - SCORE: 3-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Newcastle. West Brom have to travel to a Newcastle side on a roll with 4 wins behind them in a row and their home crowd to boost them. Newcastle should win this one and West Brom are going to be playing their hearts out which may leave them open at the back.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.65. Newcastle obliged and scored first for us around 30 minutes into the match allowing us to trade out at odds of 6.00 in the first half.


Profit made on this trade = £50


Date: 23rd April
Time: 6.00pm
Fixture: Spanish Primera
Teams: Real Madrid v Malaga - SCORE: 2-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Real Madrid. A slightly higher liability trade to end the weekend with but this should end with a nice win for Real Madrid and it will be worth hanging in there and possibly getting 100% profit. There is no reason why this shouldn't end with at least a 2 goal win for the favorites.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 8.00. This one didn't go to plan with Malaga scoring the first goal. Madrid came back and saved the trade at the end of the second half. We didn't trade out and took 100% profit.


Profit made on this trade = £100


Date: 25th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: Champions League
Teams: Villarreal v Arsenal - SCORE: 0-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by either team. This is a close one as far as odds go. Arsenal will be going for the draw and Villarreal for the home win. We won't get a great profit on this one but there should be a goal. Worth a bet on the under/over 2.5 goals market too. We'll be betting under 2.5 for this one.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.20 and placed a back bet on the under 2.5 market at 1.57. We also made a correct score backup bet at 7.40 on the 0-0 draw as a backup. Didn't go our way even with the offside goal and failed penalty by Villarreal in the second half. Not a huge loss for us with the 0-0 bet and under 2.5 goals.


Profit made on this trade = £-15


Date: 27th April
Time: 8.00pm
Fixture: UEFA CUP
Teams: Middlesbrough v Steaua - SCORE: 4-2
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Middlesbrough. Havinf to overturn a 1-0 defecit and being at home should spur Middlesbrough on to a win. We should see a goal or two here in this match and hopefully a home win.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.45. This one went completely the wrong way with Steaua scoring twice in the first half and we traded out after the second goal at 7.60. Odds after the first goal didn't give any profit. The match did go the way we thought though with Middlesbrough winning and more than a few goals!


Profit made on this trade = £50


Date: 28th April
Time: 7.45pm
Fixture: Italian Serie B
Teams: Catania v Verona - SCORE: 0-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Catania. Still all to play for at the top of the league and Catania are coming off the back of 3 wins with a home crowd. They should have this one in the bag.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 4.30. We backed the 0-0 correct score draw at 11.00. Unfortunately again we had a 0-0 draw which ended with a loss. We are still well up on the month and these small setback will be replaced with other profitable trades.


Profit made on this trade = £-110


Date: 29th April
Time: 3.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Liverpool v Aston Villa - SCORE: 3-1
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Liverpool. With them being at home and having won their last 7 matches Liverpool should win this one easily. There will hopefully be a few goals in this one.
Our Trading Result:
We missed this trade unfortunately but the scorline ended 3-1 and Liverpool scored first after 4 minutes. Great trade.


Profit made on this trade = £80


Date: 30th April
Time: 4.00pm
Fixture: Premiership
Teams: Tottenham v Bolton - SCORE: 1-0
Our Recommendation:
Lay the draw and back after the first goal is scored by Tottenham. This is the last trade of the month and hopefully Tottenham will come through for us. Bolton have recently lost to Chelsea, Man Utd and Liverpool who are just above Tottenham and Spurs are due a win.
Our Trading Result:
We layed the draw at 3.70. Tottenham onliged and scored fairly early in the second half allowing us to trade out at 6.00. Nice simple trade to end th month.


Profit made on this trade = £50
