i will add my leans later today

Same, I'm a little spent from that insane match this afternoon.

[RbN]

Over in Anderlecht - Ajax game is nicely priced. Ajax simply can't keep a clean sheet here and will also score for sure. We always play attacking (to win).

[RbN]

Rubin Kazan ML. They will play at -20 degrees, certainly even us, dutchman are not build/used to that lol. And Kazan simply has more quality.

[latinrus]

I like
Zenit ML!
CSKA PK!
Benfica
Porto over
Liverpool!

[latinrus]

Rubin Kazan ML. They will play at -20 degrees, certainly even us, dutchman are not build/used to that lol. And Kazan simply has more quality.

Rubin struggles a lot to score!

Panatinaikos got a draw, Barca draw, Copenhagen draw!

[latinrus]

Also other info of Rubin! They´re not going to play at home in Kazan cause UEFA said the stadium right now is not in good conditions.

They're going to play in Moscow in the Luzhniki Stadium!

[The Special One]

I like Zenit ML! CSKA PK! Benfica Porto over Liverpool!

I like Zenit...
I like CSKA PK...
I REALLY LIKE BENFICA...
I LOVE PORTO +1...

Liverpool not so much...

GREAT PICKS, MY RUSSIAN FRIEND!!!!

I dont think that that stadium likes Rubin much... that might not be a good thing...

I LIKE IT!!!! for once, agreeing with you RbN...

Twente isn't better than all those teams. They will have huge problems with the weather overthere and will be happy with a small loss.

I'm not Russian I just live here for now.

I really think is bad for RUbin even the time they're going to play! They're going to play at 15:00 Moscow time.
Tomorrow there would be like -15 at least by gametime maybe even -20!
Also have to say Luzhniki has artificial grass!

watch out with Napoli - they didnt show to care much about this cup in the group stages....

Do you care wether or not digital people like u?

do you think i should pass on Napoli? They are in pretty good shape and i cant say the same for Villareal. Plus Cavani has been on fire lately and i refuse to believe that they simply wont care much about this competition. I feel they have a real shot of winning the whole thing, and even if its not the CL, those guys shouldnt take it THAT lightly.

I suggest you wait for the line-ups tomorrow.

i agree that they should care, but thats our point of view... realistically, they are aiming for the Serie A title and showed this in the group stages of EL... if you watched them play then, you would know what I am talking about... I am not saying they will not win tomorrow, but I am just warning so that you dont put too much on them...

[GMilst]

Thanks for the heads up, both of you guys. I will think twice before putting a bet on them

[TR88]

also you should enroll in an english class in netherland, it might be helpful pal

[RbN]

also you should enroll in an english class in netherland, it might be helpful pal

send me a share of the 500 and will do . Or the 500 never happened ofcourse

[SoV]

Can you guys please take your personal issues with each other elsewhere? We don't need such negativity in the soccer sub-forum. We're here to help each other and make money, and such negativity doesn't help.

[GMilst]

Any thoughts on the over 2.5 on the Lille v PSV game @2.06? It looks good to me, but a second opinion wouldnt hurt.

[fury]

Sparta Praha +321

[The Special One]

ok, so here are some of my picks...



19:00 Anderlecht - Ajax Amsterdam - 3-1 - I like Anderlecht for >2 goals and the OVER

19:00 Benfica - Stuttgart - 2-0 - I like Benfica -1 and >2 goals

21:05 Sevilla - FC Porto - 2-3 - I like Porto DNB

21:05 Young Boys Bern - Zenit St. Petersburg - 2-2/1-2 - I like Zenit >2 goals and DNB



will have more tomorrow...

[RubberKettle]

1 unit 19:00 Benfica -1, -1.5 (-102) vs Stuttgart

Benfica should not really have a problem with Stuttgart. The Germans are with out Pogrebnyak and should struggle in this one. Benfica have won their last 6 games with 5 of those coming by 2 or more goals. Stuttgart have only one away win in 2011 coming last week against Bundesliga bottom team Borussia Monchengladbach.

1 unit 19:00 Besiktas - Dynamo Kyiv over 2.5 Goals (+116)

Besiktas are embroiled in scandal at the moment. It is reported that their captain Ibrahim Uzulmez has been sacked for punching a teammate during loss this past weekends loss. Ibrahim Uzulmez has been dismissed from the team and Besiktas are without fellow defender Ersan Gulum and will play their backup goalie. New bouys SImao and Fernandes will not play, but stiker Hugo Almedia will be included. Kyiv have not played since November. Dynamo Kyiv warmed up for this match by blasting Chinese target practice side Shandong Luneng in a 4-1 friendly win on Saturday.

I like the over because these teams score. Besiktas have been held scoreless at home once all year. Dynamo Kyiv have been held scorelss only twice on the road all season. Couple this with all the problems Besiktas have internally and I can see Kyiv scoring early and changing the entire complexion of this game.

1 unit 19:00 Napoli - Villarreal Draw (+236)

Edinson Cavani cannot stop scoring. The Uruguyan striker recorded his 20th Serie A goal this season in Napoli's 0-2 win away to Roma. He also has 7 goals in Europe this season. Napoli have not lost at home in Europe all season. Villarreal have lost their last two games one to nil. Italian stiker Giuseppe Rossi is back for the yellow submarine having recovered from an illness.

When I look to bet a draw I try to find odds that are close, with an underdog of less than +250. I also look for a game with under 2.5 goals favored. This game fits both rules. I would go for 1-1 cs if 5Dimes had it.

Good luck rubber

Rubin struggles a lot to score!

Panatinaikos got a draw, Barca draw, Copenhagen draw!

Also other info of Rubin! They´re not going to play at home in Kazan cause UEFA said the stadium right now is not in good conditions.

They're going to play in Moscow in the Luzhniki Stadium!

Rubin was fvcked! I was right!

[SoV]

I love Lech Poznan. Freezing weather, great fans and they play some good football.

Apart from them, Porto Over, Benfica -1, Anderlecht Over, Liverpool are all my leans. More in a bit.

Good luck rubber
