I've reactivated a Skybet account I used to have after a run
in with PaddyPower saturday night and I have to sayso far Skybet prices seems to be better than PP's .

Does anyone else use skybet? have any opinion on them?

I've started a log with them,

Prices are very erratic, some very good and some very bad. not much match markets for the less popular matches, if i reach my target with them i'll be withdrawing.

I'll only ever probably use them if their price is good.

Football, Ecuador Serie A
LDU Quito - El Nacional

Pick: LDU
Odds: 1.80
Bookmaker: Stan James

Last test for LDU before they can finally take a breather. They've had a hectic schedule so far in recent weeks, but after this match they will have close to 2 weeks of rest, due to the International break. That is why they will use most of their regular players tonight, despite having played on Thursday in Copa Sudamericana against Libertad Asuncion. Defender Guagua is suspended for this match, but Araujo is fit again to play, so they shouldn't have problems in the defensive line. Barcos and Bieler are expected to command the offensive of the team. El Nacional will miss their regular goalkeeper, who is injured. The odds seem good enough for a bet, since in their last 3 encounter in Casa Blanca, LDU were around 1.50 favorites, and they won every time (they have 6 consecutive victories at home against El Nacional, and haven't lost since 2006, in a Sudamericana match). GL!

As you see price went down heavily, it definitely looked like a good pick at 1.80.

It's just guesswork though. In my opinion anyway.

Spain at 10/11 look a cracking bet to beat England on Sat....with PP so may get evs or better somewhere else

FOXFISH1 · 07-11-2011 11:53pm

it's always a bit dodgy betting on friendlies tho isnt it?

mike65 · 08-11-2011 12:00am

If England start with Rooney/Carroll and Spain with Torres/Villa it could be along evening!

Tbh I was thinking the same, most likely score IMO.

SteelyDanJalapeno · 08-11-2011 12:27am

Cant see us scoring 2 goals, gonna wait and see the line up

As far as i know Rooney wasnt selected.
So it might even be a longer evening...

SteelyDanJalapeno · 08-11-2011 12:43am

Yeah, Rooney's not in the squad lads,

Yardie · 08-11-2011 12:53am

Spain HT/FT @ 11/5 looks nice:

What a squad:

Iker Casillas (Real Madrid), José Reina (Liverpool), Víctor Valdés (Barcelona); Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid), Alvaro Arbeloa (Real Madrid), Carles Puyol (Barcelona), Gerard Piqué (Barcelona), Jordi Alba (Valencia), Raúl Albiol (Real Madrid), Nacho Monreal (Málaga); Xavi (Barcelona), Xabi Alonso (Real Madrid), Sergio Busquets (Barcelona), Santi Cazorla (Málaga), Javi Martínez (Athletic Bilbao), Cesc Fábregas (Barcelona), Andrés Iniesta (Barcelona); David Villa (Barcelona), David Silva (Manchester City), Fernando Torres (Chelsea), Fernando Llorente (Athletic Bilbao), Juan Mata (Chelsea), Jesús Navas (Sevilla)

Compared to this:

England squad to face Spain and Sweden: Hart (Man City), Carson (Bursaspor), Stockdale (Ipswich); G Johnson (Liverpool), Jones (Man Utd), Cahill (Bolton), Terry (Chelsea), Cole (Chelsea), Baines (Everton), Jagielka (Everton), Lescott (Man City), Walker (Tottenham); Lampard (Chelsea), Rodwell (Everton), Downing (Liverpool), Barry (Man City), A Johnson (Man City), Milner (Man City), Parker (Tottenham), Walcott (Arsenal); Bent (Aston Villa), Sturridge (Chelsea), Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Zamora (Fulham), Welbeck (Man Utd)

Even Spains worst possible XI would smash England's best.

A few niggling doubts preventing me from lumping on:

1/ Spain's mindset- they have been poor in friendlies lately and may not be arsed punishing England's Brave.

2/ Some of the English players will play this like a cup final and may scrap a draw. If likes of Parker are mad up for it and Spain are disinterested, England could battle to a heroic 0-0.

3/ It's a fcking friendly. I fcking hate friendlies!

+1
Well said.

Also remember many of the players will be playing for a place in the EURO 2012 squad so could mean a huge performance from some.
