The Joker's bet of the day / The Joker / 09 June 2009 / Leave a Comment

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

Like Budweiser is to Budvar, so racquetball is to squash, and Major League Soccer is to European football. Our friends from across the pond specialise in pale imitations.

Check out the MLS tables at the moment. In the Eastern Conference almost 40% of matches played so far have been drawn. Chicago are top, having won only five of their 13 games. And you don't win the Western Conference by scoring more goals than the other teams; you do it by conceding less.

That's what Chivas USA (a pale imitation of Chivas Regal?) and the Houston Dynamo have been doing. The top two in the division have been letting in goals at rates of 0.69 and 0.64 per game respectively. Don't bother watching their match tonight, then, but do have a think about [1.80] for it to produce Under 2.5 Goals. Unsurprisingly, all five of Chivas's away games so far this season have paid that bet out.

Recommendation: Back Under 2.5 Goals at [1.80] in Houston Dynamo v Chivas USA
