3rd October picks

Lyon ruined my bets last night but I think I can get back on track tonight.
First up im going with West Brom to get a win at home against Stoke.
West Brom have been excellent at home so far scoring a highly impressive 13 goals at home from 4 matches and only conceding one. Stoke on the road have been mediocre so far. They usually play it tight and hope to catch teams on the counter attack but I don’t think they will have much success against a strong Baggies outfit. West Brom are one of the best sides around on their own patch and i just don't see anything other than 3 points for them from this game.

I think Lyon proved last night how poor French league football is at the moment. Liverpool havent set the world alight so far but should have far too much quality all over the pitch for Marseille. Whatever about league form, Liverpool always seem to give their best in the champions league and tonight should be no different. Marseille are probably one of the poorest sides in this competition this season despite their win on match day one and they will not get a result from this match. They lost their best player in the summer in Ribery and have started the French League very poorly, especially away from home where they have recorded just the one win so far. Cisse and Zenden are back to face their old club but I don’t see them having much joy.
Liverpool to win 2 or 3 – 0 easy for me.

My sincere apologies to anyone who followed the picks. To say that tonight was bad would be an understatement.
Liverpool sensationally lose and West Brom can only manage a 1 - 1 draw. The only thing i can say is that when i lose, i work twice as hard to get back on track and before long we'll be well in profit again.
