I've entered some contests, and made some soccer picks in the best bet thread, years ago. But these are my first picks in the soccer forum.
A couple of alpine matches.
Neuchâtel Xamax -0.5&1... $100 to win $100
Some info:
- Bellinzona is going down, Xamax is staying up - no real table motivation.
- Xamax wants to break a streak of 5 straight 1 goal losses, this is THE fixture to do so.
- Xamax seeks revenge for yet another 1-goal loss away to Bellinzona a month ago.
- Goal differential through 30 matches: Xamax -0, Bellinzona -45
Expectation: Xamax in a rout at home to end the frustrating streak.
Sturm Graz TO WIN... $100 to win $114
Some info:
- Sturm Graz's push for Europe is a real longshot after a 1-0 defeat to Aut. Wien.
- Sturm Graz is angry about that match, claiming "Viennese Mafia" influenced officials.
- Sturm Graz was clearly hungover in their last match, needing 3 late goals to get a home win against relegated Kärnten.
- Goal differential through 30 matches: Sturm Graz +18, Mattersburg -20.
Expectation: Sturm channels their disappointment and shock from the past 2 matches into motivated play and pick up an away win.
Good luck to everyone today on your plays.
