    Five soccer plays - Wednesday
    Celtic +125
    If Man Utd beat Aalborg (and they will), they'll win the group irrespective of what happens in Glasgow. So a Man Utd win means Villareal are only travelling to Scotland just "to show up".
    A win for Celtic and a loss for Aalborg means both teams will have equal number of points but Celtics will have a superior goals difference, which will enable them qualify for the UEFA Cup.

    Fiorentina PK -125
    A win or draw at Steaua will get Fiorentina into the UEFA Cup and they're the better team.

    Bate Borisov +750
    Juventus have qualified for the next round already. Juventus' focus is the weekend's league game against AC Milan. Though a draw is enough to secure top group spot for Juventus but not too many teams care about first spot as they don't exactly know which team they'll face next with the top spot. Juventus are resting virtually all their regular starters and will field a bunch of players that are either recovering from injury or haven't featured for the team in a long while. Expect the kind of upset Shaktar handed to Barcelona yesterday!

    Bristol City +300
    My familiarity with the Championship has me thinking there'll be one road win and one home win in the 2 games. This one will feature the road win.

    Watford +110
    This is the second Championship game and will yield a home win. On paper, Watford doesn't appear to have an edge here but this is the kind of games they win.

        Is this the only reason? I don't like being against you, but I have Ipswich win or draw as most likely.

          Celtic write-up is doubly wrong. Villareal is playing for top of the group and home 2nd leg advantage, and Aalborg is already in UEFA cause of the head to head with Celtic. That being said Villareal is down by 2 goals difference, so both have nothing to lose.

            BB,

            Ipswich is the best pick of the day by every available record. But somehow, it doesn't work for me that way in the Championship. Anyways, I hardly do better than 50%, I'm happy for you that you're on the opposite side.
            But take Bate Borisov serious. I had the same reasons yesterday for a Shatktar win at Barcelona. I didn't play it and they won. Bate will go there with all the motivation in the world hoping to be numbered among teams that have beaten Juventus in Turin! Juventus won't take the game serious. The absence of Del Piero in the line-up already greatly reduces Juve's goal threat.

              This is what I believed.

                  Bristol, Watford and Villareal have all scored.

                    That sucks, I liked Watford too, but Ipswich a bit more.



                    10 SOG already for Ipswich but it's 1-0 Bristol

                      That's the problem. Ipswich is doing more of the attack and Bristol gets one opportunity and they nail it! That's soccer! I still think Ipswich will win.

                        Wilforth, I did a parlay of all your picks but changed Celtics to Villareal!

                        I hope Bate and Fiore do not both win otherwise I kick myself!

                              Not bad.

                                Positive is always good. Nice job.

                                  It's fine - 0.1 unit. Played single also. Overall positive but too bad Ipswich came back.

                                    Juventus didn't score. If Bate Borisove nicked in a goal, our balance would have soared. I was looking forward to one huge upset in that game but it didn't happen. Next time.
