That Friday feeling

So the weekend is almost upon us, what potential bets are there out there? I have to say they are a nasty looking bunch of games this weekend - unlike midweek where there were some standouts. The best value strikes me as the over 2.5 goals on the Notts County v Dagenham & Redbridge game. Both sides have good strikers and a knack of scoring, while County have been missing some players in defence. You might want to check if Graeme Lee, a good solid defender, is back for County before striking any bet. For the record Bet 365 go 4/5 here.

Other home wins you might consider in our trawl through English Football Betting, though I can't say any offer great value, are Brighton to beat Stockport - yes I really am recommending a team that lost 7-1 in its last game, which shows how much I fear for County. Brighton have a new winger and will change things round, they should have too much ability. I also expect Norwich to see off Wycombe with the first manager in charge = win theory. However, neither can be looked at with much confidence. The best I can really do is Leicester to beat Barnsley. Paul Gallagher looks a good signing for them.

But mostly its a weekend for keeping the powder dry and having another set of games to help us assess the coming season.
