ballers101's Tips History

04 January 2025

15:00 Aston Villa v Leicester

Ollie Watkins

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@1.73

Lose

-50

Ollie Watkins has an eye for goal and is arguably the best player on the pitch today. With Duran not available, I think that should motivate him to take the chance with both hands and score a goal or two.

Ollie Watkins

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@4.20

Lose

-50

Ollie as the first goal scorer without Duran on the bench over 4 odds will always be value in my opinion. The man has got to cement his spot and remove all doubts and make it hard for the manager to take him off.

15:00 Man City v West Ham

Phil Foden

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@3.00

Win

100

The man in form for this City side, I think he is the only person or player that is in high spirits despite the team's form and should get the ball at the back of the net at least once.

12:30 Tottenham v Newcastle

Draw

50 WIN

@4.50

Lose

-50

Tottenham at home should never be ruled out. Granted, they haven't been the best in terms of form, but I still don't think we should rule them out.

11:35 Guangdong Southern Tigers vs Shandong Heroes

Shandong Heroes 2.50

Pointspread

50 WIN

@1.92

Lose

-50

This is a positive expected value bet tipped by my betting bot model. BetVictor has not shifted fast enough, and most bookies have the odds shifted down to 1.64 odds now. So if it's less than 1.75 odds, I don't recommend taking it.

03 January 2025

11:35 Guangzhou Long Lions vs Jiangsu Dragons

Jiangsu Dragons

Money Line

50 WIN

@3.75

Win

138

This is a positive expected value bet because the odds have been dropping, even dropping from 2.9 to around 2.4. So most bookies back them to be more competitive.

Jiangsu Dragons 7.50

Pointspread

50 WIN

@2.00

Win

This is a positive expected value bet and you will hardly get it at the time of me posting. But at Betfair, it's still around this price. The odds have dropped dramatically to around 1.5 odds.

31 December 2024

03:10 PHI 76ers @ POR Trail Blazers

POR Trail Blazers 5.50

Pointspread

50 WIN

@2.00

Lose

-50

The odds, although they have been dropped now, are surely down to drop as the Blazers haven't been the worst. They should keep this game entertaining.

30 December 2024

19:45 Aston Villa v Brighton

John McGinn

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@6.00

Lose

-50

John McGinn has the fifth highest xG in the Aston Villa side. Although he hasn't scored this season, he should score at CAM today. It's only a matter of time before he breaks the rut.

Leon Bailey

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@4.00

Lose

-50

Time to capitalize on these odds because he is confirmed starting on the right side. With these odds, I would have considered him a bench player, but up against Igor Julio, who shouldn't be the best at left back, there's a high chance.

Ollie Watkins

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@5.50

Lose

-50

At 5 odds, he is the best player on the pitch. If he wants to secure his spot against the dangerous Duran, he should show his best form against Brighton, who look thin.

19:45 Ipswich v Chelsea

Christopher Nkunku

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@2.38

Lose

-50

He has the start today at 9 in his preferred position. If he wants to battle against Jackson, he needs to assure against sides like Ipswich. Underperforming his xG, this is a good price.

Noni Madueke

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@3.60

Lose

-50

The man in form, Noni, has had a tremendous start to the season. With the depth in Chelsea, if he wants to cement his spot on the wing, he should score against sides like Ipswich.

12:00 Xinjiang Flying Tigers vs Beijing Ducks

Beijing Ducks

Money Line

81 WIN

@3.35

Lose

-81

One of my betting bot models has alerted this one to shift from 3.35 now to 2.7 odds. And yes, granted it's not the best odds, but positive value and 0.5u stake here.

Beijing Ducks 6.50

Pointspread

50 WIN

@2.00

Lose

-50

I like the odds because the ML has shifted down in odds and should shift down the line too because the away team hasn't been playing poorly. They have been tipped to have more motivation with the recent boost in recoveries.

11:35 Nanjing Monkey King vs Shanghai Sharks

Nanjing Monkey King

Money Line

50 WIN

@4.20

Lose

-50

The odds have shifted down in Pinnacle, which is the sharpest and most accurate sportsbook. So the odds should shift down to around 3.4 odds. But do take the handicap, which is much better.

Nanjing Monkey King 7.50

Pointspread

50 WIN

@2.00

Win

The 8.5 handicap was at this line a few minutes ago, so the odds have shifted down. So should the ML, but this shows the confidence the bookies have in the underdog chances of Nanjing.

11:35 Shandong Heroes vs Sichuan Blue Whales

Shandong Heroes -22.50

Pointspread

50 WIN

@1.83

Win

One of my betting bot models has alerted this one to shift from 1.83 to 1.6. So if you get it for less than 1.7, I don't recommend taking it, but there is positive value at this one.

00:10 MEM Grizzlies @ OKC Thunder

Over 231.50

Game Totals

50 WIN

@1.95

Win

The lines have significantly moved down for this line, and the expected value should dip before the hours before the game.

29 December 2024

23:10 IND Pacers @ BOS Celtics

IND Pacers 11.00

Pointspread

50 WIN

@1.91

Win

Pacers have not been playing that bad, and these handicap lines should drop down even further, solidifying their positive expected value.

17:15 West Ham v Liverpool

West Ham (AH) 1.50

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@1.93

Lose

-50

West Ham as 8 odds underdogs at home? That is insane and value if I ever knew it. They haven't been horrible, getting a 4-game unbeaten run on the map and should win with at least a 2-goal handicap towards them.

Curtis Jones

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@5.50

Lose

-50

Playing the role of Szobo at 10, I think he will have many shots outside the box and maybe knock one in. At these odds, what's there to lose?

Luis Diaz

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@2.50

Win

The starting striker and the man in form alongside the Egyptian King. If he gets enough minutes, I think he should score a goal or two in this form. 0.5u

Mohamed Salah

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@1.83

Win

You cannot bet against this man. Would have enjoyed around 1.90 odds, but the best player in the world right now has a good chance of scoring a goal or two.

15:00 Crystal Palace v Southampton

Crystal Palace (AH) -1.00

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@2.07

Push

Crystal Palace, I had high hopes for the beginning of the season. Granted, they lost an important player in Olise, I still thought Glasner was class enough to keep them around the top middle table side. It has been disappointing, but against Southampton, the worst side, and at home, they should win by a margin to get back their form.

14:30 Leicester v Man City

Man City (AH) -1.75

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@1.98

Win+Push

This is a flip of a coin because if it was 2 goals, I would have leaned to Leicester. But with this line, I think City has the desire and quality, despite their form, to turn it around against Leicester.

Jamie Vardy

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@4.33

Lose

-50

Him or Buonanotte are the most likely to score today because I do think the Leicester side will score here at the King Power. With City's form, they should grab one goal.

Phil Foden

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@2.90

Lose

-50

Starting out on the right side, you should have a good chance to score a goal. Also, being one of the only ones in decent form, he should have the hunger to continue against Leicester.

16 December 2024

20:00 Bournemouth v West Ham

Jarrod Bowen

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@4.00

Lose

-50

Confirmed starter here, and although West Ham haven't been the best in terms of their form, if they get a goal or two, Bowen is the man for the job.

15 December 2024

16:30 Man City v Man Utd

Man City (AH) -1.00

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@1.95

Lose

-50

I really think City will wipe the floor with Manchester United, as their form will not hinder them in the Manchester derby.

Erling Haaland

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@1.67

Lose

-50

Starting as the 9 for City, I do think City will overcome their form when playing in this Manchester derby. I think they will score 3 goals and win.
