AZ Alkmaar - Sparta Rotterdam (KNVB Beker) 25/9/2013 20:00
Date: 25/9/2013 20:00 (UTC+1)
Match: AZ Alkmaar - Sparta Rotterdam
Competition: KNVB Beker
Pick: Sparta Rotterdam +1.5 AH
Odds: 2.18
Bookmaker: Marathonbet
Stake: 10/10
Sparta will visit Alkmaar tonight. The hosts lost this weekend their away match against NAC Breda after European obligations. Gert-Jan Verbeek is known for his rough training methods, so his players are always a bit exhausted when playing much matches in the beginning of the season. Sparta won a difficult away-match against Fortuna. Sparta finally played a good match and seem to be in the momentum. I think this match can be close, a suprise for Sparta is not unthinkable. Sparta is top Jupiler, AZ subtop Eredivisie. I think +1.5AH represents a bit value.

ADO Den Haag- NEC Nijmegen (Eredivisie) 21/9/2013 19:45

Match: ADO Den Haag- NEC Nijmegen
Competition: Eredivisie
Pick: ADO to win
Odds: 2.11
Bookmaker: SBObet
Stake: 10/10
Battle of the bottom. ADO have started the season not as they hoped.
NEC are as expected on the 18th place of the Eredivisie. ADO has much more quality than NEC.
ADO is usually strong at home and will want to win again.
Only problem is the pitch. Last week the game was called off due to too much rain. Still the pitch is not very good. Under 2.5 goals would be an option, but I will wait for this if I am seeing the game on TV, after the first 2 minutes.

Match: Roda JC - SC Heerenveen
Competition: Eredivisie
Pick: Heerenveen +0 (DNB)
Odds: 2.10
Bookmaker: Marathonbet
Stake: 10/10
Heerenveen has a good squad with Finbogasson, van la Parra, Eikrem etc.
Roda does not have a great squad. Only players who are above average are Donald, Fledderus and Hocher.
Roda will miss their targetman Frank Demouge, due to a suspension. Heerenveen has a better squad than Roda. Roda also lost last week with 1-5 at home from relegation candidates NAC Breda. This has been a huge mental blown for them. All of this makes me I like Heerenveen DNB.

Match: Heracles Almelo - FC Twente
Competition: Eredivisie
Pick: Heracles +1 AH
Odds: 1.90
Bookmaker: Pinnacle Sports
Stake: 10/10
The derby of Tukkerland. Heracles and Twente ar rivals of each other.
Heracles have lost Lerin Duarte in the transferwindow. It seemed Heracles would have a tough season but Heracles have an excellent scouting and always get some talented young players. Tonight signings Amoah and Kangaskollka are not available, they will be replaced by striker Uth who has came from Heerenveen. Also Bel Hassani and Cziommer are excellent signings. Bryan Linnsen was the best man in Heracles last games.
Twente are having a great squad and are showing a bit of improvement lately from last season. Twente is always poor away and also they have drawn the last three matches they played away at Heracles.
Tonight also the artificial pitch from Heracles will play a role and of course the home support who whill cheer Heracles forward for a victory over their rivals.

Fortuna Sittard - Sparta Rotterdam (Jupiler League) 20/9/2013 20:00
Date: 20/9/2013 20:00 (UTC+1)
Match: Fortuna Sittard - Sparta Rotterdam
Competition: Jupiler League
Pick: Sparta +0 AH
Odds: 2.06
Bookmaker: SBObet
Stake: 10/10
Bogers did not start well with Sparta. We (I am a Sparta supporter) have only 12 points after 8 games.
Fortuna-Sparta is always a tough match for Sparta. Sparta have to win to not lose the sight of the top and lose the faith of the fans. If Sparta loses tonight, everyone (sponsors and suppporters) will start a revolution to get Bogers fired. Also the pressure on director Vloet is building. A victory is essential for Sparta! Also I just heard the line-up which has some changes from previous matches and I have faith in this line-up.

Sevilla do not have to travel far for this match. The match therefore will be decided on pure quality. Sevilla have more quality so I think the Sevilla win represents some value.

Maccabi Haifa - AZ Alkmaar (Europa League) 19/9/2013 21:05

Match: Maccabi Haifa - AZ Alkmaar
Competition: Europa League
Pick: AZ Alkmaar +0.5
Odds: 2.07
Bookmaker: Betvictor
Stake: 10/10
AZ won their last match easily with 3-0 from Go Ahead Eagles. In the previous round they won the first match away impressive but lost the last game which was very chaotic and played in two parts as the stadium was on fire during the game.
I think it is possible for AZ to grab some points to Holland.
I have seen the highlights of Maccabi Haifa last round match and they dominated and certainly do not have a bad team. Altough I believe the AZ squad has more quality. +0.5 represents some value in my opinion.

Competition: Europa League
Pick: Zulte Waregem +0
Odds: 1.97
Bookmaker: 12bet
Stake: 10/10
Match will be played in Club Brugges stadium.
I have heard from a few people in England , Wigan are poor this season. Zulte, after a slow start of the season against PSV in CL Qualifiers, they are back in form and have beaten Anderlecht. Also some class players like Thorgan Hazard, Habibou, de Fauw and Kums.

Champions League 2013/2014: Trading the Winners market
I have taken my opening positions in the Champions League 2013/2014 market. Do not follow this blindly, this is only to document my thoughts. Only follow if you are experienced. These are not straight bets, they are to trade. If you have questions, please tweet me @SportstraderNL
I have taken the following positions. My initial tought is to leave this after the group phase. Ofcourse I will manage this and will give updates after each matchday. I expect all to qualify for the second round and are priced up bigger than they should be. I have taken Juventus after their point loss yesterday against Kopenhagen.

FC Barcelona - Ajax Amsterdam (Champions League) 18/9/2013 20:45

Match: FC Barcelona - Ajax Amsterdam
Competition: Champions League
Pick: BTTS NO
Odds: 2.12
Bookmaker: Marathonbet
Stake: 10/10
Barcelona is the huge favorite for this game (1.10). Normally before the transferwindow I would say Ajax would have a chance, but after the loss of Eriksen and Alderweireld the Ajax team will be to weak in my opinion. Other loss is Siem de Jong who had a collapsed lung, but reports are saying he is recovered and will start in the first eleven tonight. He certainly is not fully fit yet. Ajax had a poor performance against PEC Zwolle. Zwolle certainly is a good team but Ajax only managed to produce 3 shots on target. Ajax have get replacement in Duarte for Eriksen, he has a lot of potential but if he will be ready to show it against Barcelona? I think it is too early for him.
Sigthorsson is a real striker, not at all a Ajax player in my opinion, his techinal ability is poor, he has good striker qualities but not the technical skills to do well in the Ajax-system. Often you see attacks stops at him because a ball springs off his foot. He also was replaced by Hoesen in the last game. Hoesen is a great player with a great potential but he is not in great form lately.
I hope Ajax will surprise me tonight and give Barça a bit of resistance, but I am pessimistic. It would be good for UEFA-coefficients which Holland badly need. But I think this price represents value, I think Ajax have a 20% chance of scoring, so I decided to turn off my emotions and place the bet.

Olympique Marseille - Arsenal (Champions League) 18/9/2013 20:45
Date: 18/9/2013 20:45 (UTC+1)
Match: Olympique Marseille - Arsenal
Competition: Champions League
Pick: Aaron Ramsey Anytime Goalscorer
Odds: 7.50
Bookmaker: Betfred
Stake: 10/10
Normally I only focus on match odds, over/unders and for a special system on First Goalscorer but I think I have found some value in this price. As you have seen recently Aaron Ramsey finally has become the player Wenger saw in him and I am happy with that as an Arsenal fan. He is great in midfield en also scoring lots of goals lately.
He scored one or more goals in three out of Arsenals total of six offical matches played. Also he scored in two of the three offical away matches Arsenal played this season. Ramsey is a different player than in past years and I believe this price is huge value. Based on his form it should be around 2.0 maybe cause he is a midfielder 3.0. Although Cazorla is injured, most bookies priced him up around 3.5-4.0. This strenghts me in the believe this price is value.
Other tip in this match was yesterday given on Twitter. See the tweet below.

Match: Estonia - Netherlands
Competition: WC 2014 Qualification
Pick: BTTS NO
Odds: 1.80
Bookmaker: Tipico
Stake: 10/10
On paper Dutch squad is much stronger. The Dutch defence normally consists of Janmaat, De Vrij, Martins Indi and Blind. De Vrij and Martins Indi are making lots of mistakes in recent months at Feyenoord but are still peforming very well in the Dutch squad. Only thing I can see is van Gaal will bring in Bruma who did well at PSV, but personally I think he will wait till Rekik is fit again so he can work on a good base for the World Cup. Also Willems is an option to replace Blind, Willems is back at his old level, maybe even better. Last year he peformed very bad and looked like a spoiled child. Because of his attitude and lack of discipline he was also dismissed of every Dutch national squad (including U21 and U19 squads), he seems to be back to 'normal'.
The Netherlands have had a clean sheet against most of the teams in qualification. Estonia only managed to score against Andorra, the weakest link in this group.
