Bet365 Offers The Best Six Nations Markets

SIX NATIONS BETTING PREVIEW

This weekend sees the start of the 2008 Six Nations, with bet365 making France the pre-tournament favourites at 6/4, closely followed by England at 13/8. In addition to the usual match betting, handicap betting and match markets, bet365 will be offering prices on which team will win the Grand Slam, Triple Crown or Wooden Spoon. Your involvement doesn’t have to end when the match starts; you can bet In-Play on every Six Nations match live at bet365.


There’s a very special promotion on the 3-way handicap market for every match throughout the tournament. At bet365, from the Friday before each round of matches, we will be offering even money about both teams and 16/1 for the tie. Be sure to take advantage of the added value!


England entertain a Wales side that boasts thirteen Ospreys players in the starting line-up. The 2007 World Cup finalists will be keen to continue the form that they showed in France last autumn and are EVENS (-13) at bet365 to cover the handicap. Likewise, Wales are EVENS (+13) to either win, draw or lose the match by no more than twelve points.


With Jonny Wilkinson in the side, there is a good chance that the first scoring play at Twickenham will come from an England penalty at 11/8. Recent Rugby League convert Lesley Vainikolo has to settle for a place on the bench in the opener but will be hoping to make a big impact as the tournament progresses. bet365 price him at 14/1 to finish the tournament as top tryscorer and a massive 50/1 to score a try in all five Six Nations matches.

Premierleague Weekend Betting Preview



Arsenal (4/5) travel to the City of Manchester Stadium on the back of two comprehensive home victories against Newcastle. The Gunners currently lie second in the Premier League and will be hoping for a victory to keep the pressure on leaders Man Utd. Sven’s men are 7/2 at bet365 to cause an upset and with it place a dent in Arsenal’s title push. They appear to have found a gem in Daniel Sturridge, who has found the net in both of City’s last two matches. bet365 are offering a generous 4/1 for the youngster to score at anytime.


In the second televised match on Saturday, a troubled Liverpool side play host to Sunderland as they look for their first Premier League victory of 2008. The Reds have struggled to keep clean sheets of late so the 4/6 on offer at bet365 for over 2.5 goals may prove good value. Sunderland will be in confident mood following their midweek victory over Birmingham and Roy Keane is certain to make sure his side are up for it. bet365 are offering 11/1 that the Mackems will pile more misery on Rafa Benitez with a win at Anfield.


King Kev to turn the Tyne?


Newcastle are evens with bet365 to claim their first win since the return of Kevin Keegan. The Geordies have yet to score a goal in his three games in charge but will be hoping to put that right against North-East rivals Middlesbrough on Sunday. bet365 price Mark Viduka at 4/1 to score the first goal against his former club.


Sunday’s other match sees Aston Villa travel to Craven Cottage to face Fulham. Villa are unbeaten in eight Premier League games whilst Fulham are still waiting for their first win under Roy Hodgson, so the 5/4 available on a Villa victory looks quite big. Fullham have been struggling to score goals of late so punters looking for a bigger price might fancy backing Villa to win to nil, which is 5/2 with bet365.
