The Joker's bet of the day / The Joker / 09 November 2010 / Leave a Comment

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

Diego Armando Maradona. Madonna Louise Ciccone. Shouldn't be too difficult.

Ali G once introduced Madonna as 'Maradona' at an MTV Awards ceremony many years ago and at the time that was widely thought to be the only example of the Madonna-Maradona confusion.

Spare a thought though for Armando Madonna. But for a small oversight on his parents' part, how different might things have been for him? A majority of a career spent at Serie D's Alzano Virescit? Probably not.

Still, could have been worse - if he'd been born English, he'd have been named Herman Mylady.

Signor Madonna has overcome an ill-destined piece of nomenclature, however, and is now managing Piacenza of Serie B. And, since he took over at the start of the season, all six of the Wolves' away games have stayed Under 2.5 Goals. They meet their match this evening in Pescara, where the local Dolphins have kept 5/6 at the Stadio Adriatico just as low-scoring.

Recommendation: Back Under 2.5 Goals at [1.7] in Pescara v Piacenza
