My favourite betting weekend of the year football wise. Plenty of backable prices around in the FA Cup.

This is just example of what has happened for me over past two weeks - this was last night...





Just goals goals goals and bookies are not reflecting the odds yet with most BTTS often more than evens which is far better than English leagues

GGG are great fun bets, but they really are a bookies benefit, especially in accas. There's a very good reason why odds appear generous for French games. Ligue 1 is the lowest scoring of all European leagues and has been for about 20 years. Ligue 2 is even lower. I very much doubt the odds are out of line, bar the odd rick here and there.

Can anyone recommend a website that categorises fixtures by competition and by team within said competition.

I'm trying to work out my Europa League accy and I can't filter out Porto's league results with their cup games. Cheers in advance
