Advice:Long term followers of this column will know this is our third year of covering the IIHF World Championships. And this year brings more confidence than any other.
This time we have teamed-up with a former NHL player to bring you the very best information FOR FREE. Follow his advice exclusively at Sports-Tipping.
During the next two & a half weeks we will bring you select advice on matches from this years tournament in Riga, Latvia. We also provide the best price available on the selection/s, and also how much we consider the wager/s to be worth.
Of the four initial groups, two of them have the "Already Won" look about them. Sweden will no doubt cruise group B with the only remote danger being Switzerland, and Former Champions Canada have just the USA to overcome in group 4.a mere formality.
Of the opening days round of matches it is Bet & Win that have made the biggest mistake with their match prices. Finland to beat Slovenia are generally 1/50 (1.02) shots elsewhere, whereas Bet & Win have them at 1/12 (1.08), and Canada at 1.15 to beat Denmark, best price across the boards for this one is 1.10. Pairing them together with Bet & Win gives an unbelieveable return of 1.209
Taking $500 on the double with Bet & Win returns $621. Start the tournament with a certain looking £120 return.
Also take $400 worth of the 1.333 available at Gamebookers about Canada topping group 4. Of the four groups this one to us looks the biggest guaranteed winner.
