Weekend betting preview - World Cup Final and more!

October 19, 2007

It’s another weekend of tremendous sporting action, with some crucial fixtures in the Barclay’s Premiership, the totesport Cesarewitch at Newmarket and of course, the Rugby World Cup Final 2007, with the tenacious England against the mighty South Africa. Register a new customer account with BGbet or Betterbet this weekend and get a free £25 bet on any of these sporting events.

This Saturday sees the final of the 6th IRB Rugby World Cup, where Brian Ashton’s England face Jake White’s South Africa. S. Africa has been the in-form team of the tournament, and are hotly tipped favourites to win with BGbet and VC Bet offering odds of 1/3 on a South African victory. This leaves the real value with the support of the England side with some great odds available including centrebet offering 11/5 on English celebrations at the final whistle.

Last Saturday VC Bet refunded all losing bets on England v France when a Jonny Wilkinson Drop Goal was the last scoring play of the match and they’re offering to do the same again if a Jonny Drop Goal is the last scoring play in the World Cup Final!

This weekend also sees the 204th Merseyside Derby, and with only 3 points separating fourth-placed Liverpool and tenth-placed Everton, this promises to be a thrilling match. Betterbet offering 11/5 on an Everton win, VC Bet offering 9/4 on the draw and centrebet have odds of 21/10 for a Liverpool victory. BGbet are offering to refund all losing first goalscorer bets on this game if Peter Crouch scores at anytime in this match.

Aston Villa play Man Utd at home, a tight game that will really test Ferguson’s resolve, Villa have been priced at 3/1 to win (VC Bet) and Man Utd are backed 8/11 (centrebet) to seal another victory and maintain their pursuit of the Premiership title. BGbet are offering to refund all losing first goalscorer bets on Villa v Utd if Carlos Tevez scores at anytime in this match.

The feature race this weekend is the ToteScoop6 Cesarewitch handicap at Newmarket. With a characteristically large field competing for the £100K winning prize, it won’t be for the faint of heart. Samurai Way and Fair Along are priced as early favourites for this race at 4/1 with Betterbet who are also offering ¼ odds on 5 places for all each-way bets placed on the race.

This weekend promises to be one that sports betting fans will remember, with big winnings available not only on great odds, but also great sign up offers available online. Such as BGbet and Betterbet’s £25 free bets for all new customers, centrebet’s £20 free bet new customer offer and VC Bet’s bet £50 get a free £50 bet, place another 5 bets of £10 or more and get another £50 free bet promotion.
