National League North – Chester v Gloucester
ODDS – DRAW $3.80
FORM / STATS – The last three matches between these sides have ended in a draw. Do you really need any more? Gloucester’s last two games ended in a draw and their most recent away game. A draw would equal Gloucester’s best results away this season.
OTHER DRAW SPECIALS
UK National League South – Eastbourne Borough v St Albans
ODDS – DRAW $3.75
FORM / STATS – Not many draws to speak of here between these two sides. No draws in the last six H2H. St Albans drew an away game three matches ago. Eastbourne have lost four in a row at home and scored just one goal. A draw would be welcome relief.
La Liga – Cadiz v Valencia
ODDS – DRAW $3.00
FORM / STATS – Two of the last four games between these sides at Cadiz have ended in a draw, but they follow a pattern. Using most recent game first, the series is 2-1, 0-0, 2-1, 0-0. So the next game in that sequence should be 0-0. No goals, just the way you like it. Throw in Cadiz have drawn five of their last six and three of four at home, and you’ll be confident in a stalemate.
Premier League – Fulham v Everton
ODDS – DRAW $3.30
FORM / STATS – This game isn’t for a week and a half, but that just means more anticipation for that draw. The last match between these sides ended in a draw. So that’s a great start. Everton have lost their last two away games, so might settle for a draw.
UK DRAW SPECIAL OF THE WEEK
With so many divisions, there should be so many draws to choose from. Frankington Stanley chooses his draw from any and every division in the UK.
Scottish League Two – Spartans v Stenhousemuir
ODDS – DRAW $3.25
FORM / STATS – Only the two games H2H for these two sides as Spartans are only new to the lowest division of Pro Scottish football. Neither of the games ended in a draw but that doesn’t matter, there’s only been one goal the difference in both of those games. Spartans have settled for a draw in 33% of their nine home games this season and have lost just once at home this season. Stenhousemuir are undefeated away with a record of W7 D2. So this game will be very compeditive, and therefore a draw for both of these sides awaits.
BIG FIVE LEAGUE DRAW SPECIAL OF THE WEEK
Some have accused us of picking easy leagues for our draws. First of all, how dare you, secondly we introduce of Big Five League draw of the week, where we scan the five biggest leagues in Europe for the finest draws. It could be Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 or the Premier League, but what it will always be is a quality eye for a draw.
Serie A – Genoa v Torino
ODDS – DRAW $2.90
FORM / STATS – Two teams face off that tend to live in the shadows of their more famous cross-town rival. Although, at least Genoa are still in Serie A. Genoa have drawn their last three home games. The last two were decent efforts against Inter and Juventus. Torino are struggling away from home and their record of D2 L2 scoring just the one goal suggests they may be lucky to get a draw. But so will you when this is a draw.
