WEEK 40 : A/H Discussion and Poll

[Betfairalfie]

Can't have any of these as none strike me as being value. The only appeal of the Fulham bet, if the price is still available, is that its higher odds than the identical away win bet - but still much shorter than would tempt me. MU and Chelsea - I'd be surprised if both don't win but odds are poor value.

No Vote - sorry folks.

I strongly suggest Fulham not to be our bet of the week.

Let's just forget the situation of last day relegation battle vs nothing to play for but FA Cup following week and put this game into perspective.

Fulham in 17th place play away to 8th place Portsmouth. Portsmouth have only lost 3 home games all seaon (big time drawers 8 at home alone) while Fulham have only won 2 away games all season.

Because of the situation Fulham have been priced much much lower than they would normally be at the ludicrous price of 2.4.

Let's put it this way, Fulham have won 1 in 9 of their away games and taken points from 1 in every 2 games.

So while this is indeed a must win game and Fulham are in better form than Pompy over the last few games you should take into account that the odds have been severely cut by the bookies no that basis.

true FF but wigan needed a win and won at villa and were priced at 6/1 last wk - I did state last wk we shouldnt back against any teams fighting relegation

I think the relegation factor is being ignored by a lot of people this wk - ignore the season form, the main factor is the desire to win this weekend and fulham know if they win they stay up...

perhaps some of the players dont care as they will move on but I think enough will want to protect their future and that will be enough against pompey
