PICK WON

Almeria at home wins 50% matches and Bilbao lose 46%. Both teams will probably finish this season at middle of table just like last season. Almeria at home have 4 wins and draws with 2 loses. Bilbao have only 2 wins on road and 4 draws with 3 loses. This teams play only 3 times against each other and score is 1 win and 2 draws in Bilbao’s advantage. Main reason why we go against Bilbao is because they didn’t lose from 23.11.2008 and have very long run of collecting points. Last match maybe is showing weakness of Bilbao or they form probably going down, 0-0 against Gijon. Almeria on other hand have 3 draws in row and I really doubt they gone get fourth draw in row and another win for Bilbao will be too much for everyone. Coach of Almeria is cautious against in form Bilbao and he will try to set up best team to win this match.

PICK LOST

This is FA Cup match but looking at the league we see West Bromwich at the bottom of first league and Burnley is in middle of Championship league. But West Bromwich at home is average or we can say awesome, 5 wins 2 draws and only 4 loses. At home West Bromwich wins 47% games and Burnley on road lose 44%: Worst opponent for Burnley is West Bromwich because at West Bromwich Burney never won, they manage one draw but that was in year 2000. Current form also show that West Bromwich is in better shape with 2 wins in row. Few defenders are injured for West Bromwich but striker Roman Bednar is back from a ban.
FA Cup fact
Only Arsenal, Manchester United, Everton and Liverpool have played in more FA Cup semi-finals than West Brom’s 20.
Burnley had long game against Tottenham on Wednesday. They got knocked out in last 2 minutes from Carling Cup. This will sure have negative influence on team.

PICK LOST

Sampdoria at home wins 52% games and Palermo on road sux big time, lose 41% games. Interesting thing is that Palermo is on 9th place and Sampdoria is on 6th place from behind only 3 places until regulation zone. But Palermo this season only 1 win, 2 draws and 6 loses, they sure have problems on road. Palermo won 2 times at Sampdoria 2009 and 2001 year. 5 times Sampdoria won and once was draw. Latest form show 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 loses for Sampdoria and 3 wins and 2 loses for Palermo. Besides Micolli, Budan and Carrozzieri are also out for Palermo. Looks like Sampdoria also changed coach recently, this is unconfirmed but without this still Sampdoria bet is good, since Palermo will be without few key players and stats show Sampdorias advantage.
