Welcome to the new Betfair Football Team! A crack unit to help you maximise your profit, combining exclusive previews from Arsenal legend Lee Dixon with insight from the UK's foremost tactical expert, Michael 'Zonal Marking' Cox, and trading advice from trader extraordinaire, Alan Thompson  

At Betfair, we want to provide you with the tools you need to make the most of your betting. Key to this is providing valuable exclusive insight from people who know what they're talking about. 

And who better to provide this than multi-trophy winning Lee Dixon, who has carved himself out a reputation as one of the football best pundits on our screens?

Our Lee, now ITV's lead pundit, has also turned into a pretty fine tipster - if you had placed £10 on each of his recommended bets this season, you'd be in profit by nearly £400!

But we wanted to make the football previews even more informative so, for this season, all Lee Dixon's Premier League previews are wrapped with tactical advice from Michael Cox and trading tips from Alan Thompson, all utilising information from the UK's leading football stats provider, Opta.

Michael is the sole writer at zonalmarking.net, for which he was given the award of Best Football Blogger in the Soccerlens Awards.

Zonal Marking also received an award from When Saturday Comes Magazine. He has also written for the Guardian, ITV, Racing Post, FourFourTwo, ESPN and Champions.

Alan is a former software consultant turned full-time Betfair trader. What he doesn't know about maximising profits in-play is not worth knowing, whether dutching correct score, to asking for a price, or the best time to lay the 0-0.

Look out for 'The Betfair Trader's View' and 'The Tactical View' in every Lee Dixon Premier League preview.
