Just the one bet this weekend with Supersoccer that, in the main, has done a decent job of handicapping for this round.
Barrow -4 v Gateshead 3pts@1.91

Gateshead will be a mid-table table challenging around the edges of the play-offs whilst Barrow will be in the top 3. Barrow have got off to an unbeaten start despite not really firing on all cylinders, though they have never been in danger or in fact put under any pressure. Gateshead will probably be their toughest test to date but I expect them to come through this challenge. In their last home fixture Gateshead lost by 5pts to Doncaster who are a very similar outfit to Barrow but the outcome was a bit more comfortable than the score line suggests as a couple of late tries flattered Gateshead. As ever, there is always a chance of an upset but I try to pick wagers where the price is wrong. I have an open mind about who I am willing to back and am quite willing to back teams I don't fancy to win if I feel the price is wrong. For me, this price is wrong. I make Barrow 8-10pts favourites and as such I would be making Barrow -4pts around a 1.5 shot.
