Following the international action, the Premier League is back this weekend but any chance of a repeat of the crazy goalscoring we saw last weekend looks slim. However, there are plenty of betting opportunities, as ever, and here we take a look at some possible shocks and value bets to earn you some money.

The weekend is rapidly approaching with a full Premier League programme, plus plenty more sporting action to get stuck into. Betting opportunities are wide and varied and we will have a look at some of the best bets that could help boost the bank balance.

It was the busiest January transfer window since its inception, with a mixture of big-money deals, loan switches and free transfer moves. Here’s who we think are the top ten signings during the month…….

Liverpool have enjoyed a productive January transfer window as the Anfield side attempt to salvage their season and there have been plenty of changes in the red half of Merseyside (Match Betting – Stoke 3/5, draw 11/4, Stoke 5/1).

With the January transfer window coming to a close on Monday at 11pm, and so many players with their futures unclear, which clubs will look to make some last minute moves?

There is just one Premier League match on Wednesday evening as Fulham travel to Anfield to take on a Liverpool side who are still looking to turn the corner this season.

The transfer window closes in 12 days’ time and with several big moves already sealed but plenty more expected – including the eagerly-awaited next destination of Robbie Keane – we assess how January’s dealings may help – or hinder – Premier League teams in the second half of the season.

Liverpool head to the seaside this week (Blackpool 14/5, Draw 13/5, Liverpool 10/11 – Match Betting) looking for inspiration from a footballing great, with Kenny Dalglish already showing signs that he can wake them from their slumber – Blackpool, though, will provide a stern test for Dalglish and co.

A demoralising 1-0 defeat by basement dwellers Wolves on Wednesday means Liverpool will go into a New Year on their lowest points tally since 1953/54, when Don Welsh’s side was relegated, and the task does not get any easier for under-fire manager Roy Hodgson (11/10 Liverpool – Top 6 Finish).

Roy Hodgson had an outstanding campaign in charge of Fulham last season as he lead the London club to the final of the Europa League, however they fell at the last hurdle.
