Hissing Sid

This week's kiss of death goes to The Netherlands... Northern Ireland v Netherlands - Away Win For the BTTS how about Israel v Poland Best of luck ZLF, BTTSanon and all you PUPs. PS, Nutty, 21/12 is good for me.

A season that has gone from bad to worse to downright terrible means you'd probably be well advised to give this one a miss, but, hey-ho, here goes anyway. A Saturday evening offering from Serie A... Napoli (3-1-1 8-4 at home) v Genoa (0-1-4 6-17 away) - Home Win For the match bet, HT/FT City/City Best of luck Daniel, Tilly and all you PUPs

It's the Championship for me with Fulham v Hull - Home Win For the match bet, let's go positive with HT/FT Draw/City Best of luck Cosmic, MMMK and all you PUPs

Currently on my joint best run of the season with 1 win in a row, I'm off to the Bundesliga this week... Wolfsburg (2nd, 4-4-0 11-5) v FC Augsburg (16th, 1-3-4 10-21) - Home Win For the match bet, a simple BTTS. Best of luck Kiwi, Michael, and all you PUPs

Given that my season has been nothing short of a nightmare so far, you'd probably do well to give this a wide berth, but here goes anyway. A Saturday evening game from Serie A... Juventus (3-0-0 8-4 at home) v Bologna (1-2-1 5-5 away) - Home Win For the match bet, HT/FT Draw/City at 10/1. Best of luck Mr Apple's, Indy and all you PUPs

On a roll again, one in a row! A Premier League offering this week with West Ham v Crystal Palace - Home Win. Hammers look good value at Evens to me. For the match bet, HT/FT Draw/Norwich. Best of luck Jellytot, Hector, and all you PUPs.

The trouble is that in the Premier League we don't have Video Assistant Referee (VAR). There is no pitchside screen, so no opportunity for the guy in the studio to get the on field ref to review an incident. What we actually have is Video Referee (VR), and all he does is check a decision. 99 times out of 100, nothing changes because, as has been said, he doesn't want to make his mate look a fool. If there is a case of overruling, the Video Ref is making the decision. Its so far away from the VAR we saw in the World Cup, which actually worked well.

As the nightmare season goes on (thanks Everton), I'm hoping to start another run of 1 in a row with a Sunday offering from Norway... Bodø/Glimt (2nd, 8-2-1 30-10 home) v Tromsø (13th, 3-1-7 12-29) - Home Win For the match bet, a simple score draw. Best of luck LDC, WWIAFTM and all you PUPs.

On my best run of the season after last week with 1 win in a row! So, an offering from the Premier League this week... Everton v Sheff Utd - Home Win For the match bet, HT/FT Draw/Draw Best of luck Kingo, Diane and all you PUPs

Given that I'm 1 out of 5, you'd probably be well advised to avoid this like the plague, but here goes anyway. Off to Norway and a Sunday offering... Molde (Top, 7-2-0 23-6 at home) vs Tromso (12th, 3-1-6 12-26 away) - Home Win. For the match bet, 2-1 Norwich is 40/1. Failing that, HT/FT Man C/Man C Best of luck Twidio, Vazzza and all you PUPs.

England 4 Bulgaria 0 First goal 31-HT from Harry Maguire

Staying with the club football this weekend and visiting League 2 Plymouth v Oldham - Home Win BTTS - Wycombe v Lincoln Best of luck Molly, BTTSanon and all you PUPs

This weekend's game at West Ham would have been ChelleCity's 1000th consecutive City game had she not been so cruelly taken from us. She loved Lisbon and often plumped for Sporting when picking here. They rarely let her down. So, theres really only one game i can offer you... Sporting v Rio Ave - Home Win For the match bet, City to win and BTTS. Best of luck Hansterbubble, DJ11 and all you PUPs

A Sunday offering from the Premier League this week. Tottenham v Newcastle - Home Win. For the match bet, a simple score draw. Best of luck Lincsy, ZLF, and all you PUPs.

After being let down (predictably) by WBA last week, I'm off to Portugal this week... FC Porto v Vitoria Setubal - Home Win For the match bet, HT/FT Draw/City Best of luck Diane, FF and all you PUPs.
