The Joker's Bet Of The Day: Wednesday 4th March

The Joker's bet of the day / The Joker / 04 March 2009 / Leave a Comment

A joke and a tip from the Joker to get your betting day under way......

I'm not an Arsenal fan but I'm increasingly finding that I have something in common with them, because none of us are getting any action at home these days.

Having been to the Emirates, I'm not surprised that Arsenal aren't finding the net there. It's so quiet that I had to check that I hadn't inadvertently bought tickets for a snooker match. As atmospheres go, it was like attending Marcel Marceau's wake.

One place where there's always a cracking atmosphere is San Mames, home to Athletic Bilbao. I go to a lot of strip joints so I'm used to seeing basques fall down, but somehow Athletic Bilbao remain in La Liga despite their lack of resources.

Tonight Bilbao play at home in the Copa del Rey against Sevilla. The visitors have won their last five games against Bilbao, including a 2-1 win at San Mames last weekend. This makes the [3.0] on offer for a Sevilla win, great value.
