Results for Sat 29 August 2026

The worst day of the month. Six picks, no winners, two stakes returned and four losses. Down 4.00 units.


Celtic and Hearts both won 2-1. Exactly one goal, so both minus one bets came back level. That pattern has been turning up a lot and I will come back to it at the end of the month.


The rest simply lost. Glentoran were beaten at home by Crusaders, Totton went down 4-0 at Chesham, and Opava's under 19s and Fittja both lost by a goal on lines that needed at least a draw.


  1. Opava U19 1-3 Dukla Praha U19 (Czech U19 League): Opava Draw No Bet @ 1.80, lost
  2. Fittja IF 0-1 Örebro Syrianska (Sweden Division 2): Fittja -0.50 @ 2.25, lost
  3. Celtic 2-1 Falkirk (Scottish Premiership): Celtic -1.00 @ 1.28, stake back
  4. Glentoran 1-2 Crusaders (NIFL Premiership): Glentoran -1.00 @ 1.35, lost
  5. Hearts 2-1 St. Johnstone (Scottish Premiership): Hearts -1.00 @ 2.29, stake back
  6. AFC Totton 0-4 Chesham United (National League South): Totton +0.25 @ 1.91, lost


Day close: -4.00u (2 stake back, 4 lost, from 6).
