Still a few days before the big games start back up again, but here's one I saw today that I like.

Lazio -116 versus Marseille

I really like Lazio here. They're a better team, at home, and this line should really be more like -0.5 -116. It's a friendly match so I'm only betting 1 unit, otherwise it'd be a bigger play.

It looks this is part of the Dubai Cup, a knockout tournament between Bayern Munich, Lazio, Marseille and Benfica. It will be played at a neutral site (Al Ahli Rashid Stadium in Deira). So, no home advantage for Lazio.

Aha, that makes more sense then. I like the bet anyway, Lazio is still much better than Marseille. The line at Pinnacle has shifted strongly towards Lazio, too. -0.25 -102 now.

Thanks.

Its a friendly game.

Whatever it was, Lazio with a decisive 3-1 victory.

Liverpool -106 against Arsenal looks really good to me.

There is almost no doubt that Arsenal will roll out the reserves in this one, but Liverpool just might put out a strong side as they're running out of things to win this season.

I like Liverpool there too.

As for the weekend,

Spreads
Portsmouth +100 at Sheffield United, 2.06u
Fulham +0.5 -130 at West Ham, 2.21u

Totals
Fulham/West Ham U2.25 -103
Watford/Liverpool U2.5 -120
Portsmouth/Sheffield United U2.25 -106
Manchester United/Aston Villa U2.75 -103
Chelsea/Wigan U2.75 +100
Charlton/Middlesbrough U2.25 +100
Manchester City/Bolton U2.25 -105

At 1.61, 3.40, 0.84, 1.11, 1.76, 0.92, 1.74 units respectively. I'll probably be breaking down spreads and totals like this and doing fewer spreads in the future.
