I've been putting a few quid on whichever team I think has more chance of competing for the league, then if they win, betting the winnings on ther next game. That way, I'd rather they dropped points, I only lose profits so I'm not too fussed, if they win, I'm not happy but I have a nice little cash reward to take the edge of how pissed off I am that the other team didn't have a go.
