William Hill have a bet in their #YourOdds section of football betting 6/1 Brighton get under 25 points and score under 30 goals this season.

That is seriously underpriced, that really ought to b 12s at worst. How often do those things happen together? I don't think that's a good price at all.

We need to average 1 point per game to stay up. If we beat West Brom on Saturday, for which the bookies have us favourites, than we will have 4 points from 4 games. William Hill's offer is poor value.

That's just what I was thinking. A double figure price should certainly be offered for what is effectively a double. Bookmakers seem to be getting more and more tight with their odds recently. First goalscorers this season are an example. Anything under 3/1 is a complete piss take. There's twenty potential scorers and also the possibility of it ending goalless.

Bet365 have westbrom as favourites and is the correct betting:thumbsup:

I think this thread bet is great as we don't have the squad to deal with injuries in this league unlike the championship.

Even though we have home advantage, and haven't yet played Izquiardo as a starter and Schelotto? The great betting public have little faith in us after just three games!!

Westbrom are doing very well with a solid manager and experienced squad....They will be very difficult to break down and have plenty of talent up the other end compared to us.

2-0 baggies sadly :(

Good points. Unless it's say Aguero or Kane, a prolific lone striker, all the bookies are being incredibly greedily. Being a competitive market and alleged tight margins, do they consider those niche bets to be money for nothing from mugs?

I can't stand Pulis and his tactics, but he knows exactly what he wants from his team and gets it more often than not.
