Welcome to the tenth edition of the weekly gambling feature ‘The Eagles Punt’.
This week we begin with the usual introductions and an update from two weeks ago as we had a break last week for our takeover talk!
Introductions
- @cpfcpatriot – The Eagles Beak tipster
- @Andy_Bloss – Andy, now of @FYPFanzine, formerly of the local Guardian
- @HLTCO – Dan, the man behind the HLTCO blog
- @RedNBlueArmy1 – Terence, who runs the RedNBlueArmy fan site
- @EagleGolfTips – Tony, who gives excellent golf tips on his Twitter page
- @Oh__My__Word – Chris, frequent gambler and tipping extraordinaire
The Winning Bets
Dan picks up two more winners, and a weekly profit of £16.60 to take his total to £165.60 and extend his lead thanks to both teams scoring (£19.10), as well as Saido Berahino scoring at anytime (£27.50)
Terence picks up a profit of £6 after winning £36 on the West Bromwich v Palace result to be a draw
I jump up into 3rd place thanks to Palace scoring first at the Hawthorns bringing in £27.50.
Tony wins £21 from there being over 2.5 goals in the game at the Hawthorns, but falls to 4th.
Andy also picked up £36 with the result being a draw
Dan still leads the group by a distance of £142.10 with Chris still stuck at the bottom of the pile.
Preview
This week, I hope Palace are solid at the back and use Bolasie and Puncheon to pick off the weak defence that Manchester United have, as well as an injury-depleted back line or whatever it is they call it now! Hopefully Puncheon has one of his good games and takes control as we will need his nous and ability without the skill of Zaha playing. In all the games against the big teams this season, Palace have gone for an early goal yet failed. Hopefully stunning Old Trafford into silence with an early goal with spur the team on to victory.
