SERIE A .......... The tough life of a professional footballer, low pay and no female company ....


I have reproduced a post below, sent to subscribers earlier this week, it has been necessary to edit it somewhat and also to remove one selection, but all remaining content is still relevant.


SERIE A

SAMPDORIA - JUVENTUS


I have three bets for this match, but make no excuses as, win or lose, they all offer fantastic value.This has been moved to saturday and, live on television, hopes will be high for an entertaining affair and I am certain, that it will be.


Two of Juve's favourite sons David Trezequet and Del Piero, along with Boriello of Genoa, are all level on 19 goals, in the race to become top scorer in Serie A. It is normal, in such matches, when clubs have no bigger motivation, for them to do what they can to get their players this prestigeous award. In Del Piero's case, surely they will bust a gut !


Trezequet has already won this once before and Del Piero, who is loved by all at the club, has not. I feel that the game will be set up/ played to give him every opportunity to score a couple of goals and put the pressure on Boriello, to do the same at Atalanta on Sunday.


Del Piero has been playing things down, but reading between the lines, this is something that he really wants. Surely this will be a high scoring affair and Sampdoria will want to get involved, the over 2.5 goals has been well backed in Italy this week and the asian line is likely to tumble later today.


I have no qualms about taking over three goals there, as I see almost no downside to the wager.


Bet 365 have not done their homework here and offer silly prices, other companies might follow suit later in the day, but be quick, as odds will not last long.


Juve have some defensive problems and the scoreline here could go very high 3-3. 4-4, 4-3 something similar, is not out of the question.


6 points over 3 goals asian line 2.01 ......... 2.075 Bet 365 ..... now circa 1.90

0.5 point 3-3 correct score 67.0 general quote 81.0 in places.


Good Luck.
