After last week's 4-4 draw between Liverpool and Arsenal, the
Premier League produced another thrilling game on Saturday...
Man Utd's 50/1 comeback
Man Utd 5 Tottenham 2
Half Time score: Man Utd 0 Tottenham 2
Take a look at the 'in-play' odds from Half Time in that Man Utd
game:

Man Utd to win 4-2

Man Utd to win 5-2

Man Utd came storming back with 5 goals in the second half, to win
5-2. That Correct Score was a whopping 50/1 at Half Time - and the
Man Utd win was 5/1.
- That's not the first time Man Utd have come from behind to
beat Tottenham... back in 2001 they were 3-0 down at Half Time at
White Hart Lane - and came back to win 5-3.
Ronaldo odds-on for the Golden Boot...
Back in January we backed Cristiano Ronaldo to be this season's
Premier League Top Scorer at 3/1. He scored twice for Man Utd at
the weekend - and is now odds-on to for the 'Golden Boot,' at just
1/4.
Ronaldo has 17 league goals. Nicolas Anelka has 15 and Robinho,
Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard all have 13.

Results from the weekend
The stats highlighted 3 strong match-ups for 'high corners' games,
but unfortunately the corner kicks dried up at the weekend.
If you followed all our 'FBD says' bets last week, you'd have
finished up around even for the week - 2 winners (on Wednesday), 2
losers and 1 'money back' bet.
Bolton 1 Aston Villa 1
Total Corners = 10
FBD said:
'Over 12 Corners' @ 5/4 (and half as much on '10-12 Corners' @ 2/1
as a saver bet) - saver bet won
There were exactly 10 corners in this one, so if you backed the
'saver bet' you'll have recouped your stakes.
West Ham 0 Chelsea 1
Total Corners = 8
FBD said:
'Over 12 Corners' @ 5/4 (and half as much on '10-12 Corners' @ 2/1
as a saver bet) - LOST
Our stats highlighted West Ham's home Over 10.5 Corners record as
the highest in the Premier League - but there were just 8 corner
kicks in Saturday's game.
Arsenal 2 Middlesbrough 0
Total Corners = 9
FBD said:
'Over 11.5 Corners' @ 2.03 (and 25% of stake on '10-11 Corners' @
7/2 as a saver bet) - LOST
There were 9 corners in Sunday's game - 1 more and the saver bet
would've paid out.
The final game of the weekend fixture list takes place at St James'
Park tonight - and it's live on Setanta Sports...
Let's take a look at the standout stats.

Match Result
This is a huge game for Newcastle - they are second-bottom in the
Premier League with just 5 games to go. Portsmouth are 7 points
better off, but are not safe from relegation yet either.
The bookies make Newcastle the favourites to win at 10/11 (1.91).
On recent form that doesn't look a good value bet...
Newcastle have only won one of their last 10 games. Portsmouth have
lost 3 of their last 10 games - but they were against the Top 3
teams in the league (Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea).
The Premier League's 'Form Guide' table - that takes into account
the last 6 games home and away - places Newcastle 19th out of the
20 teams. While Portsmouth are up in 9th place.

KEY DATA:
It's worth noting that Newcastle have drawn 12 games so far - more
than any other team in the Premier League.

Newcastle have drawn 12 games - and Portsmouth have drawn 10. Both

5/2 tonight.
