    Foot off the Gas theory..

    Anyone else ever notice in Champions League or Europa League qualies when a team has a insurmountable goal difference and the team that got their ass kicked comes home the away team tends to take their foot off the gas and more or less doesnt give a shit if the home team wins by a small margin. Reason I'm saying this is we have 2 games today that would fit this mold.

    Breidablik down 0-5 to Rosenborg..+720 to win..

    Borac Banja Luka down 5-1 to Maccabi Haifa +650..

    You would think that the home team has a lot of pride and wants to go out on a good note for the fans and the away side would tend to play conservative and maybe not start a player ir 2 or take out the top guys say in the 60th or 70th min if the score was tied with no chance of losing the advantage.

    Solid logic with the potential for a big payout, are you biting?

    Breidablikis a bad team and the 1st leg score could have easily been 8-0 if Rosenborg had their shooting boots on in the 1st half.....but if Rosenborg leave out players like Henriksen, Prica and Skjelbred it could be a draw or a narrow win.

    Skjelbred has transferred to Hamburg HSV so don't look for him

    EDIT: seems as if he will leave in January 2012 so hes eligible to play for Rosenborg till then.

    Well Malmo is down 4-1 and at home and is +250..I usually would prefer a 4 goal or more cushion, but might be worth a go..

    I hit the Malmo game DNB at 2.75, I use your theory here.
    I have it now as a rule of thumb!

    this info was golden!

    It's definitely not "foot of the gas". They are defending a previous result on the 1st leg.

    Foot of the gas meaning the team that has an adventage doesn't need any more goals = They are defending a previous result on the 1st leg

    Same thing, Cake just called it " foot of the gas".

    Yes, I have to admit my betting theories are whacked a bit, but that's the kind of bettor I am, sometimes they work and sometimes they fall flat..

    So Arsenal is playing with the foot off the gas now because they have already won first game.
