This article provides a recap for the month of October 2024.  All of these betting suggestions were published in David's Daily football previews.

Check out the performance of David's full football betting history here.  

During the previous month of September, the highest odds picked in these previews was the 7/1 odds for the winning bet on BTTS double with PaddyPower on the 16th of the month. However, there was also an odds-on loss at 2/1-on for Dinamo Minsk (W) (against Peamount) that got the month off to a terrible start. The month ended with a decent Thursday afternoon on 26th September when we had two doubles which both landed at odds of 7/2 and 4/1. There was also a 7/1 double with WilliamHill on 30th September that won (at 8.12 decimal odds).

So far in October, the highest odds picked in these previews was the decimal odds of 15.5 for the winning bet on a Correct Score 2-2 Draw in the Catanzaro vs Modena match on the 6th of the month. 

 

ALL PREVIEWS

2024-10-07 - Monday

October continues to produce good results. As we start the new week, David's Daily Football Previews are making a 30% Return-On-Investment after 62 settled bets so far this month. The highest odds picked in these previews was the decimal odds of 15.5 for the winning bet on a Correct Score 2-2 Draw in the Catanzaro vs Modena match on the 6th of October.


Bet:  BTTS No

Odds Available:  3.60

The first bet of the new week is in a 1am game being covered by PaddyPower. This could be a first for #davidsdaily  - we are looking at the Aruban Division di Honor for at least one clean-sheet at odds of 3.60 in the game between River Plate and La Fama. 

Result:  Loss

Bet:  BTTS No

Odds Available:  3.00

It is then all the twos:  our 2nd bet is at odds of 2/1 at 2pm featuring Viking 2 in the 2nd Division in Norway.  This 3.00 price is with the BetfairSportsbook for the Viking 2 vs Eik-Tonsberg game. 

Result:  Loss

Bet:  BTTS Yes

Odds Available:  3.50

There is a 5pm game in the German Bundesliga women's competition and we think both Bayer Leverkusen and Jena can have success on goal. BetVictor made that a 13/5 shot (3.60) which makes it a bet for us. 

Result:  Loss

Bet:  Under 2.5 Goals

Odds Available:  1.85

Ladbrokes make it 1.85 (17/20 fractional) for the Under 2.5 Goals line in the 7pm Bonsucesso vs Uni Souza game in Brazil's Carioca B2. Decent price for us. 

Result:  Loss

Bet:  Under 2.5 Goals

Odds Available:  2.10

It's Mount Pleasant vs Racing United at 11pm and PaddyPower think the Under 2.5 Goals line is an 11/10 shot (2.10) in this Jamaican Premier League game. That is a bet for us.  We start Monday in Aruba and end it in Jamaica. Perfect.

Result:  Loss

Result:  Loss

Bet:   Crystal Palace to Win 1-0

Odds Available:  23.00

Early Saturday afternoon and we are back with the English Premier League at 12:30pm for a match that on paper looks unremarkable. It's a top-versus-bottom affair when Crystal Palace (3 points from 6 games) welcome Liverpool (15 points from their six) to Selhurst Park.

While getting off to a perilous start to the season with three draws and three losses from their six games so far, it would be a literal  turn-up for the books for them to reverse their fortunes against a rampaging Liverpool side. The Reds have scored 12 and only conceded twice in their six games to date. 

14-April-2024: Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace - Reds suffer huge blow in Premier League title race with defeat at Anfield.

While it is important to highlight that Liverpool claimed a 2-1 victory in the reverse fixture last season, securing the win with a dramatic late comeback, it must also be noted that Palace have avoided defeat in three of their last four Premier League encounters with Liverpool. Under Oliver Glasner’s guidance, Palace secured a notable 1-0 victory at Anfield last season, with Eberechi Eze scoring the decisive goal.

And looking back further, Palace have scored 33 times over the course of their last 13 home games. They've also kept a clean-sheet in 5 of their last 7 home matches.  At the top of the table, Liverpool are highly fancied at around 2/1-on but we are picking The Eagles to get the upset win at 11/2 (6.50) and a side-bet on the 1-0 Correct Score odds of 22/1 (23.00). It will be their first win of this season's campaign and one that most pundits will not see coming. Odds available with WilliamHill. 

Result:  Loss

Bet:   BTTS No

Odds Available:  2.10

The Czech First League also has a 12.30pm game and we like BTTS No at 2.10 with SkyBet when Karvina and Hradec Kralove will be playing.

Result:  Win

Bet:   Over 2.5 Goals

Odds Available:  2.95

At 1pm we are in Spain's La Liga for Espanyol vs Mallorca and this is where some folk will complain because they don't have a Grosvenor Casino account for the 2.95 odds we like in their Over 2.5 Goals market.

Bet:   BTTS No

Odds Available:  2.40

Go to the BetfairSportsbook for the 3pm English FA Trophy game between Hebburn Town and FC United in order to get some of their 2.40 for their BTTS No market.

Result:  Win

Bet:  The SkyBet double

Odds Available:  5.66

If you put these two FA Trophy games with the 2.38 BTTS No odds into a double with SkyBet, that will pay better than 9/2 (5.66), a nice payout if both games have are least one clean-sheet. 

Result:  Loss

Bet:   Over 3.5 Goals

Odds Available:  3.40

In the Cypriot 1st Division at 5pm we are back with the BetfairSportsbook for Anorthosis vs Nea Salamis and we like at least four goals in the game and the odds of 3.40 for that.

Result:  Win

We turn our attention to the Argentinian women's match at 7pm between Newell's Old Boys (W) v CA San Lorenzo de Almagro (W). Go get a piece of the 1.95 for at least one clean-sheet in this game. It's Betfair Sportsbook where you will find that price if you like it.
