The Toon V Stoke: Tips Round-Up

My Tips For Newcastle United V Stoke City: Round-Up

Every match I give myself 100 points to place a few hypothetical bets on Newcastle and 100 points to place a few general football bets using the odds available from SkyBet.com.  I then compare how the two sets of bets perform and analyse whether it's better to bet with your heart or your head.

Both my sets of tips made a small profit this week as once again I went for a confident set of Toon tips and although Stoke initially proved tricky to break down, we eventually came good.

Match Result:
30 points on Newcastle at 1.83 - WIN 55 points
We left it late but Papiss Cisse's injury time winner earned us the victory we deserved.

Goals:
20 points on Newcastle To Score 2+ Goals at 2.0 - WIN 40 points
We've now scored two or more goals in four of our last six league games, with nine goals coming in our last three league home games.

Win To Nil:
20 points on Newcastle To Win To Nil at 3.1 - LOSS

Team Bets:
20 points on Newcastle To Win Either Half at 1.44 - WIN 29 points

Team Bets:
10 points on Newcastle To Score In Both Halves at 3.0 - LOSS

Making an overall return of 124 points and therefore an overall profit of 24 points.





Wins for Wigan and Doncaster ensured a slight profit for my general football tips, making it seven out of the last eight weeks that my general football tips have finished in profit.

West Brom V Swansea - Match Result:
20 points on Swansea at 3.0 - LOSS

Bournemouth V Doncaster - Match Result:

The current head to head totals between my two sets of tips now stand at:

Newcastle tips - 11.5
General football tips - 13.5

Once again I'll be skipping the Europa League match against Anzhi Makhachkala on Thursday and making my next set of tips for Sunday's away trip to Wigan.
