    The line is inflated because of the attacking style of both teams but it is the 1st leg and I can see it being quite a tight game.

    Fwiw, 57% of first leg games in the Champions League knockout stages go under 2.5 goals.

    Thanks for posting. You saved me a lot of money. Keep up the good work.

    I play all the plays I post. VegasInsider's reasoning was correct but he shouldn't have played the over since the Arsenal pk was at a much better odds. Sometimes you need to pick the value bet. Over 3 bets on first legs are not very common.

    If my reasoning was correct, how was it not the proper play on the total? Correct reasoning and +EV usually equates to a play. I'll take a PUSH any day of the week, regardless if it's a bad beat or getting lucky. You wouldn't be back in the thread if Arsenal had lost, but I'd be back if this game stayed Under.

    I only had 1 unit on the under so am kinda glad all you guys on the over got a push (i.e. didn't lose) out of the game.

    Read your own post. You said Arsenal will be forced to attack and they need to score 2 goals to win because the draw 1-1 doesn't suit them. This means 2-1 which pushes the over 3 but cashes the Arsenal pk. So you have determined Arsenal will not lose but you liked the over meaning either a 2-2 or a 3-1 Arsenal victory would cash it.

    No the correct play wasn't the over 2.5. The correct play was Arsenal pk +185 because of the massive odds for a home dog that doesn't lose home. Also Barcelona hasn't won on the road in CL with Guardiola as coach.

    Pavy,

    When I stated that I thought Arsenal would need to score 2 goals at home, I didn't think they were going to complete this task. I was merely stating what I thought they needed to do to win the first leg and put them in position to move forward. My feelings on the contest was a 3-1 Barcelona win, which I was wrong. Had I thought Arsenal would have walked away with a victory, I would have played them at +185ish.

    I honestly didn't think Barcelona would only score one goal.

    Glad they came back. Your reasoning did suggest going over with Arsenal tho, maybe. Others pointed it out earlier before game on and I thought they were spot on, was already on +3 tho.
