Liege - Bastogne - Liege betting odds: Valverde for victory?
Published by Halverde on 4/27/2007 at 19:59.
The Spring Classics are almost over! But don't fret, that just means we're heading into Grand Tour territory. Get used to sitting on the sofa in front of the TV whilst it's sunny outside, because that's what you're in for. But first there's Liege, which is the oldest classic. Michael Boogerd has finished in the top five every year since 1894, but still won't win it this year. Sorry to any of his fans, but at least he was blessed with lovely teeth to compliment his complete lack of abilty to win anything.
If Boogerd won't win, who WILL?!
Alejandro Valverde
Boonen and Valverde were supposed to clean up at the classics. What happened? Well, a bout of very public diorhhea happened to Boonen, but Valverde has no excuse. Maybe he's been focusing his attention on winning the Tour. Yeah, that's it.
Odds to win: 13/2 (7.4)
Davide Rebellin
What's up with Rebellin? Despite being thirty-five years old and looking like a startled spoon-faced sparrow, he's managed to get second and first in the Amstel Gold and Fleche Wallonne respectively, thus ruining our argument that a new generation of single day riders has been ushered in. What a twat.
Odds to win: 13/2 (7.6)
Paolo Bettini
Bettini's one of the peloton's classiest riders and a former winner of Liege - Bastonge - Liege. Not that that counts for anything at all when you're wearing the rainbow jersey. If anyone ever comes anywhere near us with that cursed rag, we're going to slap them right in their cock.
Odds to win: 7/1 (8.2)
Will we make enough money from our betting to keep this site alive? And, more importantly, will YOU make enough to buy yourself a £250 fabric square from Rapha? Why not find out in the most frivolous fashion possible? Winners always welcome at Betfair!
Tomorrow
The odds for Cunego, Boogerd and Di Luca. Unless we can't be bothered.
If Boogerd won't win, who WILL?!
