Weekend Spread Betting Roundup 19.08.19

Plenty of Premier League antics, a shiny 2nd innings for Ben Stokes and another fiery showing from Real Madrid feature in our Weekend Spread Betting Roundup!

City and Spurs use their heads – 2019/20 Premier League
Denied an injury time winner thanks to VAR, Man City suffered their first setback of the 2019/20 season as they drew 2-2 against title upstarts Tottenham. Raheem Sterling put the champions ahead in the 20th minute, a lead that was almost immediately cancelled out by Erik Lamela. Sergio Aguero then made it 2-1 just after the half an hour mark, only for Lucas Moura to draw things level once again in the 56th minute.

With the first and last goals coming from the respective bonces of Sterling and Lucas, the Headed SMMs spread made up to 132 against the original spread of 46-53. That’s 79 times your initial stake.


Pukki punishes Magpies – 2019/20 Premier League
Having nabbed a consolation goal against Liverpool, Teemu Pukki reminded people why he was the Championship’s top scorer last season on Saturday, striking an early blow in the potential relegation battle as his hat-trick helped Norwich to a 3-1 win over Newcastle.

Even at a fairly high original spread of 49-57, the Finnish forward’s SMM make-up hit a robust 383, leaving lucky punters with 326 times their opening stake.


Arsenal and Burnley pushed into the corner – 2019/20 Premier League
Yet to look fully comfortable despite a pair of ostensibly soft opening fixtures, Arsenal nevertheless secured their first double-win start to a Premier League season for a decade against Burnley. The 2-1 victory saw the Clarets battle hard, however, creating 7 corners to the hosts’ 10.

That meant the Cross Corners make-up rose to 70 from an original spread of 20-23. Even better, the Corner Squared market came in at 289; take away an opening price of 122-134, and that’s 155 times your initial stake.


Stokes makes up for 1st innings flop – The Ashes 2nd Test
Making up for a meagre showing in the 1st innings, Ben Stokes put in a man of the match performance during England’s 2nd inning at Lord’s, securing a Test-best 115 runs en route to a rain-forced draw. Lop off an opening price of 25-29, and that’s 86 times your initial stake.


Real bring out the worst in people – 2019/20 La Liga
After an ill-tempered pre-season, Real Madrid carried their fieriness into their La Liga opener. During a 3-1 win at Celta Vigo, 9 cards were dealt out – though 6 of those came courtesy of the hosts, Modric was the only person to pick up a red. This caused the Multi Bookings make-up to surge to 2200; against an original spread of 540-640, that’s 1560 times your initial stake.


All Blacks get revenge – Bledisloe Cup
Winning their 48th Bledisloe Cup, New Zealand were savage in their showing up of Australia on Saturday. The All Blacks sent the Wallabies packing with a 36-0 defeat, swift retribution for the Aussies record win in the Rugby Championship the previous week.

Starting at a New Zealand/Australia Points Supremacy spread of 12-15, plumping for a home victory could have netted you 21 times your original stake.
