Last night all four British teams were in action in their opening group games of the 2012 Euro Championships and that means there is a blank weekend of fixtures in England’s top two leagues. There’s still plenty of football in the lower leagues and Six Two Four has cast its expert eye over them and come up with a Saturday double. Did I say expert eye…my profit and loss...
Today heralds the start off the qualifying groups for football’s Euro 2012 Championships and England (3/10) take on Bulgaria (10/1) at Wembley Stadium after their humiliating World Cup campaign. Frank Capello is missing regular first choice players Rio Ferdinand, John Terry and Frank Lampard but they should be still be good enough to beat a Bulgarian XI who will be technically sound but defensively brittle.

Last night’s Johnstone Paint Trophy bet on Southampton and Rotherham didn’t go well at all. The Saints lost 3-0 at home to Swindon Town and let me down in my double with Rotherham who recorded a 1-0 victory against Lincoln City.

Last season both sides struggled to make any impression on the European places on offer in the higher echelon’s of Spain’s Primera La Liga....
Six Two Four kicks off its betting account with a small gamble on tonight’s German Bundesliga 2 match between Fortuna Dusseldorf and Hertha Berlin. Fortuna lost their opening game of the season 2-0 away to FC Energie Cottbus whilst Hertha Berlin recorded a 3-2 victory over Rot-Weiß Oberhausen on home soil. Everything points to a tight game and for that reason I’m selecting the tie to end in stalemate....
