Soccer betting

[DRB]

Since I am still relatively new to soccer but learning more each day, we can certainly rule out playing for a point this early in the season.
They play well into October in Finland ( similar to MLS time frame ). I think I can better understand your frustration if they truly played most of the 2nd half without even trying to score that is unacceptable and borderline suspicious.

Let's just take a breath and pick a big fat winner for this afternoon.

[LFC1892]

This is my plan now. I'm going to the gym. I'm not even going to watch the game. If I lose I will have a break for a few days.

FAI CUP Bray-Limerick-Over 2.5-@1.99
Stake: 1000$

Reason: I flipped a coin.

[spf888]

I'm posting a pick. Don't be mad, LFC.

Serie A Qualification-Avellino-Bologna-Bologna @+175

Reason: Avellino just won in added extra time against Spezia a few days ago. Bologna currently sits in 4th place in the Serie B table. Just too many disadvantages for Avellino. Also, fried bologna sandwiches are $$$.

[LFC1892]

Nice call spf888 Feel free to post whenever you want but with a bit of reasoning.

[LFC1892]

Let's see if we can start a good hopefully long winning row after the Irish game.

Bahia-Parana Clube-Bahia -1ah-@1.86 and ht/ft-@2.10
Stake: 250$
Stale: 200$

Reason: This game appeals to me a lot. Bahia is one of the best teams in Serie B this year and the team has a big chance to return to the first division. Bahia play very attacking football expecially at home. The atmosphere in the club is great at the moment and the fans are enjoying the games. With players such as Ze Roberto, Leo Gamalho and Maxi Biancucci the team is having better quality than the competition. Parana almost relegated to the third divison last year and the team is regressing. Bahia is playing better with every game and the team is showing progress- they won the vice championship in Northeast Cup. Parana has even more problems concerning their finance and one of their main players Flavio left the club because of that reason. The others players are not happy as well so this should be a walk in the park for Bahia.

[LFC1892]

Good win for Bahia. Next game starting in 15 minutes.

China Jia League
Hebei-Qingdao Jonoon-Over 2.5-@2.05
Stake: 150$

Reason: Reading the reports of this league I can see that Hebei is an attack-minded team expecially at home. On the other hand Qindao are title condenders so they will try to control the game. This teams have met twice before and both games had Over 2.5 goals.

[pietrodarmian]

Good win for Bahia. Next game starting in 15 minutes.

China Jia League
Hebei-Qingdao Jonoon-Over 2.5-@2.05
Stake: 150$

Reason: Reading the reports of this league I can see that Hebei is an attack-minded team expecially at home. On the other hand Qindao are title condenders so they will try to control the game. This teams have met twice before and both games had Over 2.5 goals.

It's 3-0 already just before HT

[LFC1892]

3-0 at HT so that's 3 in a row More are coming soon.

[LFC1892]

Sibir-Volga N.Novgorod-Under 2.5-@1.75
Stake: 200$

Reason: The first game in Russia Division 1. Both teams are safe from relegation after a long battle. They have nothing to play for and the players are in holiday mood. Both teams in terrible form losing 4 in a row and more than often in such cases we see boring draws and I expect the same scenario here.

Kashima-Yamaga-Kashima -1ah-@1.81
Stake: 400$

Reason: Kashima is one of the most popular teams in Japan. They finished 3rd in the last campaign but they started this one very bad. The team had to travel a lot because of the Asian Champions League. There were rotations and tired legs in most of the games in the league. In this game however they will be fresh and determined to bounce back. They realize that this is their last chance to come back in the fight for top positions and the team will play like never before. Yamaga is debutant in the league and they don't have any specific ambitions. Moreover Kashima will count on their new star striker Dinei- the scoring ace of Brazilian Vitoria.

[LFC1892]

Torpedo Moscow-Mordovia Saransk-Under 2.5-@2.00
Stake: 250$

Reason: I coudn't believe when I checked the odds. These are two of the most stubborn teams in Russia. They don't have quality players and both count on defensive style of play especially Mordovia. Torpedo with huge financial problems, they don't have sponsor and players without salaries for a few months. They don't really care if they stay or relegate. Mordovia are safe and they will play with their ugly style trying to counter attack.

[LFC1892]

England U20-Ivory Coast U20-England U20-@1.95
Stake: 150$

Reason: I'm going against the odds movement in this one. England have some of the most talanted players in the tournament. They have won it 4 times, last year beaten by Portugal 1-0 in the third place play-off. This will be the second round of the tournament. England won a point against a good Marocco side. However the pitch was terrible and the ball was slow and yet England scored 3 beautiful goals. All conceded goals were because of an individual errors. However the terrible pitch had it's influence. The best players in the current squad are Lewis Baker (Chelsea), Matty Grimmes (Swansea), James Wilson (Man U), Callum Robinson (A.Villa) and Chuba Akpom (Arsenal). Far better in comparison with Ivory Coast players.

[LFC1892]

Good game for England and that's 6-1 in the last 7 bets.

Arsenal-Aston Villa-Both to score-@1.83
Stake: 250$

Reason: Arsenal is coming in great shape and had players that performed superbly last week. They have the chance to win back-to-back trophies having gone so long with nothing. On the other hand Aston Villa lost against Sotton and Burnley in the last 2 games and now they are super underrated. But they didn't care about these games and I'm sure that we will see different team today. The one that won against Liverpool. Tim Sherwood used the same approach only twice after that and won against Everton and almost upset City losing 3-2 only. That's why I think they will score tonight. On the other hand Arsenal have enough firepower to nail it at least once as well.

[LFC1892]

This was the most one-sided game in FA in the last 15 years I think.

I'm waiting Barca now and I will have a few bets later.

What's your play for Barca bro

[LFC1892]

I will just enjoy the game mikey. I was thinking about Neymar anytime scorer but I will skip it.

[smithah2]

any bets for later like you said?

[LFC1892]

Should have played it.. Btw Copa America coming soon

Colorado Rapids-Portland Timbers-Number of goals-2or3-@1.95
Stake: 250$


Reason: I expect at least two goals in this game hopefully in both nets. Portland is coming from a big win against the second team in the table DC United and their confidence is much higher now. They definitely have the momentum so I expect to see them scoring here. On the other hand Colorado have the home advantage which is a factor in MLS. The Timbers will be without suspended Diego Chada-their defensive midfielder which should provide a glimmer of hope to Colorado's attack. However Colorado have an important missing player as well- their defensive midfielder Sarvas will be out for at least 4 weeks. I won't be surprised to see a 1-1 draw here.

[LFC1892]

If I have to be exact I expect Over 2.5 goals in the game but because of the low average number of goals in MLS I prefer the 2or3 total goals option and in case of two early goals and then nothing.

[LFC1892]

1-2 FT so another one in the bag.

UEFA U19
Spain U19-Turkey U19-Spain U19 -1.5 ah-@1.84 and Spain U19 ht/ft-@1.73
Stake: 250$
Stake: 250$

Reason: There are 2 huge favourites in this group-Spain and Portugal and two big outsiders-Turkey and Georgia. Portugal demolished Turkey with 6-1 two days ago and I don't see any particular reason for this not happening again. Maybe not with 6 goals but with 3 at least. On the other hand Spain had an easy 4-1 win against Georgia. I expect a few goals from Borja Mayoral (Real Madrid). He was one of the best in the last game according to reports but managed to score only one. Turkey is not a football nation and they don't expect something big, on the contrary they are hoping for a loss by a small margin. Moreover most of the Spanish players and not only are very impressed by Barca winning against Bilbao yesterday in a way that reminded of the golden Spanish years so they will try to score as much as possible.

[LFC1892]

5-0- 80 min of the game

Lech Poznan-Pogon-Under 2.5-@2.00
Stake: 150$

Reason: I will just fade the public here. Very important game for Poznan. They are one point before Legia in the title race and they will face the last team in top 8 of the country. I expect a nervous game because the players know what is at stake. Pogon will park the bus and fight for the point. Their best striker is out so they can't score, they have to defend well. On the other hand Lech will miss Darius Formella and they might lack creativity at some point.

Ludogorets-Beroe-Under 2.5-@2.00
Stake: 200$

Reason: Ludogorets accomplished their goals this season. Beroe won the cup so their mission is done as well. They have nothing to play for here so the point will satisfy both teams. Ludogorets with the best home defense and Beroe with the best away defense. Value plus reasoning. There is nothing better than this.

[rankslash]

Cherno More won the cup. Beroe haven't won anything. They need to win if they want 2nd place.

[LFC1892]

Parlay Over 2.5 in Wolfsberger-Rapid Vienna and Grodig-Admira-@2.478
Stake: 250$

Reason: This is the last round in Austria and we usually see a lot of goals in this round. Both teams don't have good odds for a single bet and that's why I prefer to combine them.

[LFC1892]

Yeah my mistake ranklash. They won it last year. Cherno More accomplished a great comeback yesterday with 10 men don't know why I mixed up. Maybe because both teams are in green Beroe won their biggest game against Litex and that was like a final. Lokomotiv Sofia don't have a license for Europe.

[Betlitelli]

Pogon have missings in defensive line and will play with 1 or 2 classic winger as right/left back, also have very young defenders, even if they park the bus( which I doubt ) this can be easy blowout and best striker Pogon right now is Zwolinski not Robak and they def.can score like they did against Legia away. Its better to play live under when/If Lech score 2-3 goals they will slow down and safe energy for next game on Wednesday like they did with Slask 3-0HT, 3:0 FT.

[mikey87]

Hey LFC. Today is the return leg in Scotland. Motherwell vs Rangers what are you anticipating this game. Over 2.5?

[LFC1892]

I was out mikey sorry. I can see that Rangers is disappoining again though. Betlitelli if Pogon don't park the bus they will lose with bigger margin. They will look for counter attacks and they will try not to give free spaces to Lech.

[paco]

Lfc, would U hedge this for guaranteed profit or let it ride? Last leg is Roma ml

[LFC1892]

Nice hits paco congrats. Well depends on the amount of your stake. I will told you my personal opinion about Roma right now. Rudi Garcia and the owners are not in good relationship and we saw this after the derby. This is a public play as well because everybody expects Roma to win after they won the most important game of the season against Lazio. To be honest I won't be surpsised if they draw or win with one goal margin only. This is only my opinion though and I don't want to be blamed later BOL

[LFC1892]

Both Unders won, strange round in Austria.

Internacional-Sao Paulo-Sao Paulo X2-@1.60
Stake: 350$

Reason: This is a gift in my opinion. Internacional played 3 days ago in Copa Libertadores and there will be significant rotations. On the other hand Sao Paulo is one of the best teams in Brazil this year. They had the whole week to rest and prepare well. Moreover new coach Juan Carlod Osorio will boost their morale for sure. It's true that Internacional is a good home team but it's impossible to cope with fresh Pato,Ganso and Bastos. Draw is the most probable outcome in this game.

Napoli-Lazio-Napoli -1ah corners-@1.925
Stake: 100$

Reason: Whenever I watch Napoli they just cover the corner line. They are supposed to attack more in this game because they need the win.

KR Reykjavik-Keflavik-Over 3-@1.75
Stake: 200$

Reason: The gap between these two teams is huge. We have the team in best form against the team in worst form. KR is one of the three title contenders this year and they have more quality than the competition. The only chance for surprise is if the game is rigged and I really doubt it. However I have something in my mind and that's why I skip the -1.5 ah here. Keflavik might score one lucky goal and a score of 2-1 would not suit me. I'm pretty sure that KR is capable of scoring at least three goals here.

[LFC1892]

Clean sweep

[LtDementia]

Great!

[paco]

Good call on the hedge

[LFC1892]

Cheers guys I was working on my next bets.

Nigeria U20-Brazil U20-Nigeria U20 +0.5ah-@1.88
Stake: 250$

Reason: I will try to be short here although I can write a lot. These two teams are the big favourites in the group and Hungary and North Korea the outsiders. Both teams will be happy to start with something that means not losing the game. They will surely have the advantage against Korea and Hungary. Nigera have lost all head-to-head games against Brazil but they have the perfect chance to stop this here and I will throw a few arguments.. Brazil is currently not playing as they used to while Nigeria is the best African team at the moment. Nigeria won the U17 tournament against Mexico and the players from that team are the core of the U20 team. The opponents of this Nigerian team always do not realize how unprepared they are until they get to the middle of the field. We all know how phisically prepared the African players are and if they manage to learn some tactics then they are pretty decent against anyone. Moreover this Nigerian team has two strikers almost ready to go into the world stage at senior level- Iheancho (Golden ball winner) and Taiwo Awoniyi. Draw is very probable outcome in this game in my opinion.

North Korea U20-Hungary U20-Under 2.5-@1.74
Stake: 200$

Reason: Both teams lack creativity in attack. They both realize that the loser will almost surely go home so I expect one ugly boring goalless game.

[LFC1892]

Should have taken the Over in Nigeria-Brazil. I was pretty sure that Nigeria can score and win a point but I underrated Brazil.

Still 8-3 since the last update.
