Tyrone finished third in division 1 behind Mayo and Kerry but Mickey Harte would have pleased with his side’s performances. Derry operated in Division 4 this campaign and they won all 8 games. Damian McErlain will be delighted with that but the Oakleafers face a stiff challenge here going on the evidence of the last three meetings between the sides. Tyrone have easily accounted for Derry in the last three championship games. On average they have beaten their neighbours by 10 points.

Looking at Derry, players such as Chrissy McKaigue, Conor McAtamney, Shane McGuigan, Ryan Bell, and Christopher Bradley will be key. Tyrone will look to Tiernan McCann, Padraig Hampsey and Ronan McNamee in defence. In midfield, Colm Cavanagh could return from injury to start at midfield, while Peter Harte, Niall Sludden and Cathal McShane will be all key players in attack.

Last Five Championship Meetings

2017 Tyrone 0-22 Derry 0-11 (Ulster quarter-final)

2016 Tyrone 3-16 Derry 0-12 (Ulster quarter-final)

2009 Tyrone 0-15 Derry 0-09 (Ulster semi-final)

2006 Derry 1-08 Tyrone 0-05 (Ulster quarter-final)

2004 Tyrone 1-17 Derry 1-6 (Ulster preliminary round)

Team News: 

Tyrone:  Niall Morgan,  Padraig Hampsey,  Ronan McNamee, Michael McKernan, Michael Cassidy,  Ben McDonnell,  Tiernan McCann. Richard Donnelly, Brian Kennedy, Matthew Donnelly,  Niall Sludden,  Frank Burns,  Cathal McShane,  Peter Harte,  Conor Meyler.

Derry: Thomas Mallon, Sean Quinn, Brendan Rogers, Karl McKaigue, Paul McNeill, Chrissy McKaigue, Niall Keenan, Padraig Cassidy, Conor McAtamney, Emmet Bradley, Enda Lynn, Ciaran McFaul, Shane McGuigan, Ryan Bell, Chris Bradley

Betting

Tyrone are unbackable at 1/10, Derry are 13/2 to cause an upset. Something which going on previous statistics I cant’ see happening. The draw is 14/1. Peter Harte to score a goal anytime is 9/4 and that looks a good bet to me in a game where I see goals.

Slots of Fun for Celtic Fans

Celtic are a club that have won honour after honour in Scottish and European football. This season is again being a popular one with an excellent chance of more silverware heading to Celtic Park. Off the pitch, the great news is that they now have a slot game dedicated to the club and its rich history. With some excellent prizes to be won, it’s a game you just have to play.

The Celtic Football Club slot game has been released by Blueprint Gaming. They have been responsible for popular games such as ‘3 Lions,’ ‘Casper’s Mystery Mirror’ and ‘Count Duckula.’ Now comes Celtic’s own Slot game and it’s one that is going to delight any Celtic fan who plays it.

There are five reels and three rows of symbols with a total of 20 paylines. The game can be played from as little as 20p and the stunning top prize is £250,000. The game does have an RTP (Return to Player) of 91.86 – 95.27% so you might have to wait a while for a big win. Just imagine you’re an Aberdeen or Rangers fan.

The symbols include several that are Celtic related. There’s a famous green and white jersey, the Celtic logo and a 1967 symbol that will bring back wonderful memories of the European Cup triumph. The wild symbol is coloured green, and this can substitute for other symbols to get you wins. Think of it as bringing on a late sub to get the winner. There’s a Bonus symbol and the lower paying symbols are the ten to Ace playing cards. You’ll get a few of those while waiting for the big wins to hopefully come along.

The brilliant aspect of this game is that there are two special features that can bring about those big wins. There’s a Random Wild Feature that can turn up at any time. This turns up to four reels wild and can bring you plenty of wins.

Three bonus symbols on the first, third and fifth reels takes you into Changing Room Bonus game. You’re transported into the home dressing room where there are four shirts to choose from. Each contains a different prize, all of which are worth winning. It could be a Mystery Prize, a trip to the Trophy Room (lots in there), a visit to Celtic Way or some Champions Free Spins. There are some great cash bonuses and multipliers to be won whatever your choice.

You can play this game on your mobile devices, so ideal to have a quick play of before a game or during the half-time break. If you want to try the game out just for fun, it is possible to play a demo version of the game for nothing.

The introduction of the game comes at a successful time in the history of the club. Celtic have won the Scottish Premiership title for the past eight seasons and the 2018/19 season again saw them win the domestic treble. That’s the third season in a row that they have managed that. Hopefully a winning streak like that will come along when playing the Celtic FC Slot game.

This season has had the occasional up and down. Despite all the success in the domestic game, life is still a bit tough when it comes to European football. Sadly, Celtic were unable to reach the group stages of the Champions League.

Celtic gained wins over Sarajevo and Nomme Kalju in the first two Champions League qualifying rounds. That led to a third qualifying round tie against CFR Cluj from Romania. The first leg was played away from home and Celtic fans were pleased to see their team return home with a 1-1 draw. 

Hopes were high of reaching the play-off round, but it was not to be. Celtic lost 4-3 at home. A terrible defeat but one that didn’t take too long to avenge.

The loss saw Celtic move into the Europa League and they successfully got past AIK from Sweden 6-1 on aggregate. That took them into the group stages and the draw proved to be a very interesting one. The Scottish Champions would have to face French side Rennes, Serie A team Lazio and a certain CFR Cluj, who had failed to reach the Champions League group stages.

Celtic had reached the last 32 of the Europa League in their last two attempts. This wasn’t an easy draw but just like hitting the jackpot in their slot game, it’s been a triumphant one for Celtic and a place in the knock-out stages has already been achieved with a game to spare.

They are unbeaten in their first five group games and have beaten Lazio home and away. Celtic have also drawn in Rennes and got that revenge when beating CFR Cluj 2-0 at Celtic Park. If only they’d done that earlier in the season.

As we reach the end of 2019, it’s been another successful year for the club. Not just because they now have their own slot game, but with three major trophies won. Or could it be four because there’s still the Betfred Cup final to play.

2020 already promises a great deal for Celtic. They top the Scottish Premiership ahead of great rivals Rangers. It already looks a two-horse race as it always was in the old days. Celtic have the edge at the moment though and they will be hoping it stays that way and a ninth straight title is won.

Then there’ll be the Scottish Cup and hopefully the Bhoys will lift the trophy for the 40th time and the fourth year in a row. What would give Celtic even more joy than winning the top prize on their slot game? A European success would, that’s for sure.

Celtic still have proud memories of their 1967 European Cup triumph. Going deep into the Europa League would be a fantastic achievement for them. Winning it would be even better with automatic qualification for the group stages of next season’s Champions League. No more trips around Europe weeks before the season is due to officially begin.

2020 promises to be another busy and successful year for Celtic. Hopefully there’ll be a few wins on the slot game too to make it even better.

Forecasts for upcoming season of League one

After the big financial investments of Paris Saint-Germain, the fans from all over the world began to pay attention to the French League one. The level of local football has grown significantly, the teams began to successfully perform in the European competitions.

After the big financial investments of Paris Saint-Germain, the fans from all over the world began to pay attention to the French League one. The level of local football has grown significantly, the teams began to successfully perform in the European competitions.

With the start of the new season, everyone has only one question – who will be able to dethrone the PSG? In recent years, only Monaco has succeeded in it, but they are now not in the best form to challenge the capitol’s club. This was proved by the game of the first round against Lyon, where the Red and Whites were beaten in their home arena with the score of 0:3.

The main fight for gold medals will unfold between Paris Saint-Germain and Lyon. During this offseason, the Lions invited a new coach and strengthened the lineup with high-quality performers. This is midfielder Jeff Reine-Adelaide and defender of the Danish national team Joachim Andersen. The fight for the European competitions zone will be held between:

  1. Marseille.
  2. Saint-Etienne.
  3. Nice.
  4. Monaco.

The middle class of the championship, such as Rennes, Montpellier and Bordeaux, can also become successful. We should carefully watch the performance of Lille in the new season. Last year’s silver medalist sold the club’s main star, Nicolas Pepe, who led the club to the Champions League. Now they have to play on two fronts without their leader. A tough fight is expected at the bottom of the League one’s standings, too.

4 basic concepts how to survive in sports betting

Sports betting is a known entertainment industry. It is evident since ancient times where sports are merely bloodbath. Man versus man in an arena where audiences bet for who would slay the other while the rulers keeping themselves entertained. However, modern-day sports betting has a wide variety and has less to none bloody scenes. To name a few, we have boxing, basketball, football, car racing, horse racing, etc.

 

Sports evolved and finding which game is worth your money is a personal matter. Your reason for betting also matters. Most bettors bet to have fun and others to earn. Hence, their survival in the sports betting world becomes a personal matter as well.

 

If you plan to engage yourself in sports betting, whether to have fun or to gain profit or both, you need to know how to survive. Meaning, you need to know the basics of sports betting then you’ll be fine moving forward. To help you understand these things, here are four (4) basic concepts of sports betting that you should know.

 

  1.   Having General Knowledge of the Sport

Sports knowledge is the most basic concept that you should consider. You cannot bet without knowing at least one or two things about the matter at hand. Thus, it will help you even more if you find time researching necessary information about the sport you would want to go on betting in the future. In this way, you will be able to maximize your odds.

 

For instance, if you are aiming on how to place your Kentucky Derby bet, you need to know which horse has the best chance of winning the race. It may include examining the conditioning of the horses or checking on previous results. The top 3 contenders can be your choices. Make sure to get the information you needed, and you would be on your way getting the best out of betting.

 

  1.   Defining Value

It is essential for people, who plan to be successful in sports betting, to have an understanding of the concept of value. For instance, in choosing a wager, considering the “value” is somewhat necessary. In other words, a wager with no “value” does not worth a bet. Some who do not know would just bet for the sake of betting without knowing that the wager chosen is of lesser value.

 

However, the scenario presented above is true for bettors who want to gain profit. If your value lies in the entertainment that sports betting gives, then that is how you should go moving forward. People bet for different reasons, and within those reasons, the definition of value resides. Hence, identifying which of your “value” you care more will help you enjoy the rest of your sports betting experience.

 

  1.   Knowing the Betting Options

Knowing the betting options is essential. To better understand its importance, you need to know the various options available. For example, the TVG Horse Racing allows you to bet on horses of your liking. You can check on its online betting sites and see the betting options yourself.

 

  1.   Knowledge about Betting Strategies

Betting strategies are the things that make betting more interesting. The help you need to sustain and have a successful betting experience lies between you and how you will manage to apply these effective betting strategies. For instance, betting on the crowd favorite does not guarantee a win. It may help you at times, but it is not always the right path to take.

 

Hence, the list is endless if we talk about betting “strategies.” Indeed, these strategies are hard to master. It takes time and money; since you will need to fail to learn. Your mistakes will give you an idea of what approach you will use the next time around; thus, you will then devise a strategy which will help you increase your odds of winning. Patience can be one of your considerations.

 

Takeaway

Sports betting, in general, is a mix of fun, excitement, thrill, disappointments, loss, and other emotions connected to success and failure. Knowing the basic concepts of sports betting, however, will help you lessen the negatives. Value, sports knowledge, betting options, betting strategies constitute the things you need to be aware of if you wish to engage in sports betting. Know what you value, learn the “sport,” know your options, and apply strategies so that when you bet for the first time, the success and failure can be both acceptable.

 

Remember, a worthwhile betting experience is not the one which you would always win. Sometimes experiencing some losses makes things more interesting!
