The Punt #70
It’s a little delayed, but don’t fear The Punt is here. Nobody had a win on the Melbourne Cup unfortunately, but there are definitely some promising bets on this week. Which punt do you think is the best value?
Ladder
(Total)(Change from last week)
1. James ($250.50) (-$10)

————————————
Matt
EPL – Man Utd def Aston Villa @ $1.50 – They were dominant enough mid-week, and should back it up against a hot and cold Villa side.
&
Int Rugby – France def Australia 1-12 @ $2.70 – The French have long memories, and last year’s 40 point thumping is at the front of their minds. In saying that, there isn’t a high liklihood of a points bonanza again, so it will be close.
= $3.96
Adrian
A-League – Heart v Roar – Heart @ $3.30 – The Roar are far from their best at the moment… I smell an upset.
&
EPL – Aston Villa v Man Utd – Man Utd @ $1.50 – This one should be in the bag.
= $4.95
James
A-League- Adelaide def Perth @ $2.15- The ladder leading reds should be too strong at home.
&
EPL- Everton def Sunderland @ $1.50- After 4 straight draws, the Toffees are ready to get back on the winners list.
&
NBA- Miami def Atlanta @ $1.41- The defending champions will be too strong for an outclassed Hawks outfit.
= $4.55
Tomo
Int Rugby – All Blacks vs. Scotland – Points start – All Blacks -24.5 @ $1.82 – The world’s best team start their Northen Hemisphere tour against mighty Scots. Expect the All Blacks to show their class with a spanking and a message sending performance to the other Northern Hemisphere teams.
&
A-League – Phoenix vs Mariners – Phoenix @ $2.70 – I chose this because Ruben also chose this.
= $4.91
David
NBA – Bulls def Timberwolves @ $1.26 – The Bulls have had an indifferent start to the year without Derrick Rose, but they should be too good at home.
&
Int Rugby – All Blacks vs. Scotland – Points start – All Blacks -24.5 @ $1.82 – I’m going to agree with Tomo here (I know, how stupid), and back the world champs to run laps around the stingy Scottish.
= $2.30
Ruben
A-League – Phoenix vs Mariners – Phoenix @ $2.70 – Not sure if I’ve tipped the phoenix and them actually won, maybe I’m bad luck, but anyway its THE week this time.
&
A-League – Sydney FC vs Victory – Victory @ 3.35 – Very good odds here, can’t go past it.
= $9.04
