FOOTBALL BETTING: Football friendlies are coming thick and fast as the season approaches. This weekend sees some big names in action; Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea, amongst others.
A raft of pre-season friendlies are scheduled to be played this weekend, which is good news for punters pining for football bets, although most supporters noting the pedestrian nature of the warm-up fixtures, will feel that the new season can’t come soon enough.
Champions Chelsea head to face Martin Jol’s Ajax in Amsterdam where the Blues are 4/5 (Partybets) to come out on top, Liverpool are 10/11 with 888Sport to see off Kaiserslautern and Stan James make Manchester United 1/3 to register a third straight win in the United States as they tackle Kansas City Wizards.
