Turkish Delight!!

[andyp]

Towards the end of the last season i was looking at the league tables from several different countries. I noticed that in some leagues 2 teams seem to dominate the table, and lose / draw very few games! For example in the scottish league you could back Celtic / Rangers to win every game, in the Italian league (last season) Juventus / Milan / Fiorentina (home) looked value for money, as well as the likes of Chelsea in the premiership.

Then i noticed this with the Turkish league, so it got me thinking, if i back Galatasaray and Fenerbache to win each of their games (except when they play each other), would this be a profitable system... i dont know, but lets find out!

Edit: - Forgot to mention, each bet will be a single and i am usin mythical money, so it will be £50 each bet

Sounds very similar to the idea Wayne had the other day in the thread

Backing Blindly

Seemed to get a positive opinion in that thread andy!

ALL ARE SINGLE BETS:

GALATASARAY to WIN V Ankaraspor @ 1.59 drew 1-1

FENERBACHE to WIN V Erciyespor @ 1.25 win 6-0

Good luck Andy, I think with the Turkish league it might also be worth looking at the over 2.5 goals markets as well.. just a thought :)

Yeah, read post #7 and 8 mate :wink

I really think it will work, it might not be a massive profit, but i think it would profit?!

Thanks BigC, i will take that on board

i think were going to have a few threads with exactly the same picks in each soon - i started researching the same thing a few weeks ago, and it does indeed seem profitable :)

I share your annoyance andyp about the galatasary match to. Gala got two penalties in the match and both were saved. One saved by the keeper in the first half and the second save in the 92minute ffs. Sounds like they should have won the match but as is the case sometime when the most obvious thing should happen it doesnt

[andyp]

P/l = - £37.50

I know i didnt post the fixtures up beforehand, but i stated at the beginning of this thread to blindly back these two teams at £50 per selection...

Fenerbache won @ 1.68 (profit = £34)

Galatasaray won @ 1.26 (profit = £13)

[andyp]

P/l = + £9.50

Fenerbache @ 1.19

Galatasaray @ 1.75

Andy something that might be worth looking at as it's just appeared on betfair for the first time is Ukranian football. Whether there'll be any liability I don't know but there are two teams Dinamo Kiev and Shaktar Donetsk that dominate completely. Just been looking up their recent records and they might be worth a look at to add to your european teams.



this season to date
Shaktar 3-0-0 12 for 0 aga
Dinamo 3-0-0 12 2

2005/6
Shaktar 23-6-1 64-14
Dinamo 23-6-1 68-20

2004/5
Shaktar 26-2-2 63-19
Dinamo 23-4-3 58-14

2003/4
Shaktar 23-4-3 68-20
Dinamo 22-4-4 62-19


They've lost 6 home games between them in past 3 years probably mostly against each other too
