Today's game between Villarreal and Celta Vigo appears to be in favor of the hosts. However, the Celts are on a 5-game winning streak and shouldn't be taken for granted. We've outlined the teams and taken a look at who to bet on for the game. Villarreal Winning Streak Villarreal played an excellent game last week against Real Madrid, holding the league leaders to a 1-1 draw. Villarreal is on somewhat of a streak right now and could easily move into fifth place in the Spanish Primera League, just 1 point away from Sevilla. The Yellow Submarine look to make a statement against the Celts tonight and show the rest of the Spanish League that they are ready to make a run at the top four. Celts Need Good Luck Celta Vigo are in eighth place with 32 points, and are not really able to threaten Malaga in seventh. They have not lost in their last five games, winning three against Cordoba, Atletico Madrid and Deportivo. They ended last week’s match with Elche, which was a disappointing outcome to what was supposed to be an easy win. The Celts have never won a Spanish title, but Villarreal are close to being a real threat to the giants like Barcelona and Real Madrid. El Madrigal will be packed tonight for the second time in two weeks with hopes that Villarreal can make the home fans proud yet again. Bet365 Sports Betting Odds There are a number of pre-game bets that UK sportsbook bet365 are offering to interested punters. Villarreal are obvious favorites tonight at 1.90, while a draw is 3.50 and the Celts are at 4.20. Perhaps the outright props are not the right choice, luckily Team props. Score props, Players props and more are all available. Pick your favorite team, or make a mix of different props for the chance at lucrative winnings. Punters can maximize winnings with bet365’s Bore Money Back offer, which gives money back if the end result is a boring 0-0 draw. Check back with the sportsbook and learn about the other promotions available for new punters and how multiple bets can maximize winnings. Take your online gambling experience to the next level and try your luck with the Spanish BBVA lines offered by bet365 sports.

Secrets of the Amazon Another gorgeous video slot now available at William Hill Casino is Secrets of the Amazon. This one shows off some amazing wildlife from the deepest jungles in the Amazon and there is also a beautiful woman who made this place her home. She acts as the wild symbol and will double the winnings she creates while substituting for any regular symbol. The 5x3 screen comes with 20 paylines and at least three scatters will trigger the Moonflower Bonus Game which awards up to 50 free spins with an x50 multiplier. The Alchemist’s Spell A slot machine with 243 ways to win on five reels with three rows is made even more exciting with free spins and multipliers. The Alchemist’s Spell doesn’t just have a nice theme but it also offers players a lot of ways to win with every spin of the reels.

Superstitions are affiliated with Stevie Wonder songs and the days of old, but a new survey shows that at least in the British Isles people are still very prone to such beliefs. Here are a few juicy snippets from the survey which was conducted by Ladbrokes Games among people who play online games. Overall, the survey has shown that over 54% people in the UK and Ireland still hold at least one superstition. We would like to thank Ladbrokes Games for sharing with us the survey's results. Wood, Ladders and Umbrellas Superstitions come in many different types, and the survey has tried to map out the most common ones. Touching wood is a global superstition and it holds a high stance within the UK: 54% of the surveyed people believe that knocking on wood gives them good luck. 51.6% said they prefer not to walk under ladders since those will give them bad luck; 49.6% would never open an umbrella indoors, even if it was raining from the ceiling – because that's just bad luck! Brits are also very careful around mirrors – 46.3% believe that breaking one would bring seven years of bad luck. There is also a problem with the number 13: 34.1% believe it is an unlucky number, and 43.6% would rather stay in Friday the thirteenth. Origins and Differences The survey checked with participants how they came to hold their superstitions in the first place. 46% of the surveyed said that the belief was passed down from their parents, 14% received them from their grandparents and 26% just received them from tradition. Age-wise, 71% of the surveyed aged 65+ held superstitions, with the number going down to 52% between the age ranges of 35-44. Millennials are more superstition-proof although some still believe in things such as lucky clothing – in one of five people's wardrobe you could find a lucky cloth, something that usually turns out to be underwear. Gender also plays a role: women are more superstition than men – 59% against 47%. Online Gambling Superstitions Naturally, numbers are a big part of superstition beliefs as seen with the poor number thirteen. But there's also a number which many believe to be lucky – seven. One in five people in the UK and Ireland will always use seven in their casino games or lottery tickets. Online roulette is also a good example for a game where many superstitions can be practiced, for example: betting on sleeping numbers. The "logic" is that a number that hasn't been bet on for a long time will fall down. Others believe that they should bet on the color that first catches their eye the moment they approach the roulette table. We say - whatever works, so long as it helps!
Membership of the European Union (EU) is supposed to be on the condition that countries adhere to the freedom of goods, capital, services, and people. Unfortunately, though, not all EU member states adhere to those four freedoms. And within those freedoms, online gambling is categorised as a service. Therefore, it is surprising that Sweden has long maintained a monopoly on its online gambling industry. Leading Poker Apps Affected Most recently, the Swedish Gaming Board demanded that Apple remove all real-money poker applications from the App Store that could be accessed by Swedish residents. The principal poker apps affected by the request included 888poker, PokerStars, and PartyPoker. In response, Apple chose to prevent access to the poker apps for Swedish residents. This move provides further evidence that Sweden is actively trying to protect its monopoly gambling operator, which is named Svenska Spel. Back in 2013, the European Commission (EC) asked for Sweden to open up its market and bring it into line with EU policies. Sweden did not even take the opportunity to explain why it was restricting access to foreign gambling operators. After refusing to implement the recommended changes, the EC took the decision to refer Sweden to the European Court of Justice (ECJ). Time will tell as to what impact the referral will have. Public administration minister Ardalan Shekarabi clearly stated in February that Sweden had no plans “to relax its gambling regulations and to throw open its market to foreign companies.” Sweden Gambling Monopoly Grows Stronger Before receiving support from Apple, Sweden had been unable to maintain its perfect monopoly. Rather than bow to the wills of Swedish policymakers, PokerStars had been one of the operators willing to accept Swedish players. However, that has since changed, allowing for the Swedish government to strengthen its monopoly to a greater degree than ever before.
Arsenal have not been able to beat Manchester United in the FA Cup since 2005. It was as if they simply could not beat Man. U with Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford. Lucky for the Gunners, Ferguson is gone and new Manager Louis van Gaal is more focused on staying in the top four in the Premier League, rather than the FA Cup. Quarterfinal, Head to Head Unfortunately for United, Robin van Persie is out with an ankle injury and will miss tonight’s match. They will also be without Jonny Evans following his spitting incident against Newcastle. The Red Devils do have home field advantage tonight, although over 9,000 Arsenal fans will be making the trip, it’s nothing compared to the Man. U crowd. Both teams have won the FA Cup eleven times but against one another, United definitely have the upper hand. There are not many injuries for the Gunners; Gabriel Paulista will be out for 2-3 weeks with an injury to his hamstring. Arsenal are currently in third place in the Premier League, a single point ahead of United. They have played well this season and have not let their losing record against Man. U get in the way. The Gunners will be expecting big things from Olivier Giroud, with seven goals and four assists in eleven appearances. Expect Arsenal to be on the attack, as Arsene Wenger knows that defensive soccer will not bring home the win. FA Cup: Live In-Play Betting Tonight’s match can be followed with live in-play wagering markets at bet365 Sports. The UK Sportsbook has dedicated numerous wagering props both prior to, and during the match. Manchester United are favorites at 2.50, while the visitors are at 3.00. An interesting market to try would be Half Time/Full Time Correct Score. Bet 1-0 at half time for United and 2-0 after 90 minutes and the odds received are 19.00. Throughout the match, punters can try the live In-Play lines offered to maximize profits.

Late last week, a bill to tax online gambling in Ireland was submitted to the country’s president for approval by Michael Noonan, Ireland’s Finance Minister. The bill, Betting (Amendment) Bill 2013, will only be passed into law once operators that are already licensed in other jurisdictions are granted licences to offer services in Ireland. Once this happens, the Irish government can begin imposing levies. A spokeswoman for Ireland’s finance department said they expect operators to begin paying taxes by the middle of this year. Finally, No More Delays The plan to tax foreign online bookmakers that offer remote services to Irish customers was originally proposed in 2011, but it was never put into action due to multiple delays. At the time, the suggestion was that the government collect a 1% tax on all bets made in betting shops, as well as bets made on the internet and by telephone. The bill now comes at a time when Paddy Power, Ladbrokes and William Hill (all large bookmakers) are struggling with tighter regulations and higher taxes in the United Kingdom. Still, Paddy Power, Ireland’s biggest bookmaker, seems to be doing quite well. Last year, they earned a whopping 167 million euro before taxes. Paddy Power stated that if the Irish tax bill had been enacted last year, they would have had to pay an estimated 8 million euro. Seems like pennies for a company that earned 167 million euro in the same year! Benefits of Betting (Amendment) Bill 2013 While online casinos will, of course, lose out on some profits due to the new tax, the Irish government could accrue an additional 25 million euro per year, an amount that cannot be sneezed at. Fortunately, Michael Noonan is working diligently on behalf of Ireland's government, and he is committed to seeing the bill passed into law.
