Bet #72: Blue Square Premier League Double

As I mentioned yesterday there isn't much football being played today, New Year's Eve. This has given me a little opportunity to check out the form of the Blue Square Premier League teams in action tomorrow, New Year's Day.

Stevenage Borough are riding high in the table, having lost in only two of their 26 matches this season. Second place Boro shouldn't, at least on paper, have too much difficulty beating middle of the road Cambridge United who are suffering poor away form at the moment.

Elsewhere in the league the teams are pretty closely matched, so I'm going out on a limb that Salisbury will beat Histon. Given that Histon are seven places above Salisbury this could look a foolish decision. However, Salisbury's low position is due to the fact they were docked 10 points for going into administration earlier in the season.

So, in conclusion it's £10 on the following double:
  • Stevenage Borough to beat Cambridge United (4/7)
  • Salisbury to beat Histon (1/1)
That's combined odds a smidgen over 2/1.

Both matches kick off at 15:00 hrs UK time.
