Soccer Betting Preview 5/5/2006

We have come to the last round of the Premiership season, usually the most nerve wracking. However with all 3 relegation spots taken there will be no teams playing for their Premiership lives until the last minute of injury time. There is the coveted 4th place up for grabs which qualifies either Tottenham or Arsenal to next season's Champions League. All will be in vain for Spurs if the Gunners go on to beat Barcelona in this years Champions League final as this will effectively knock Tottenham out of the running due to a technicality.

This week's betting fixtures look easy on the eye. With some teams season over mentally it is easy, in theory, to predict what will happen. The age old saying of 'nothing is certain except for death and taxes' rings true on the final day.

So here are my tips for this weekend:
