you sure love fc copenhagens eh?

what about udinese -110 over tottenham who has been bad

**Wilforth** · 10-22-08, 10:01 PM

Ryan,

Udinese and Tottenham appear to be 2 teams headed in opposite directions right now. And there lies my fear. Ramos and Tottenham appear to do well in cup games even when their league form is in tatters. The UEFA Cup game may provide one lucky break once more for Tottenham. On paper, Udinese is the play, but it is pass for me. Also remember that this same Udinese lost at home to Borrusia Dortmund a few weeks ago when the whole world expected them to win. The thing with Udinese is that they have this annoying tendency of conceding in bunches and Tottenham, despite their poor form, have been scoring.

i wouldnt overrate tottenham based on past years, it will get you in trouble. like fenerbachs who is garbage now

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 11:13 AM

These are would also be good picks:

Nancy (vs. Feyenoord)
Club Brugge vs. Rosenborg Over 2.5
PSG +415 (vs. Shalke 04)

**fifawcs** · 10-23-08, 11:38 AM

I'm on portsmouth for today.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 12:29 PM

i did moscow-125, udinese-110, aston-135, and portsmouth maybe, only bc its on tv

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 12:53 PM

I also did CSKA. I did PSG +415 since Shalke hasn't been great of recent and PSG have boosted their squad lately.

My other plays now are:
Copenhagen
Benfica
Dynamo Zagreb
Olympiakos Pireus

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 12:59 PM

Ryan,

What's your take on college football tonight. I'm all over Auburn ML because of their D.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 01:04 PM

if i did either side, it would be auburn, sex is too good and wvu is too mediocre. i am on the phils tonite at+150 though.

but i think auburn is the side id do

as you know, im good at mlb and ncaaf. horrid at nfl

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:14 PM

The "epidemic" of home wins in today's UEFA Cup games has me thinking twice about playing road dogs. Otherwise, I'm hopeful, Benfica and Olympiakos Pireus should be able to overcome their hosts tonight at a good price.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 01:17 PM

i wont touch those two games
aston villa is much better than those

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:18 PM

But these home wins trend can't go on unabated.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 01:25 PM

they arent connected
you can either say the road teams are due or the home teams dont lose
the teams arent connected
thats not something to look at

i wish you had done udinese
tottenham aint good

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:27 PM

Udinese: game not yet over.

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:29 PM

Two sure home wins:
Copenhagen and Dinamo Zagreb

One sure Over:
Club Brugge/Rosenborg

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 01:30 PM

i tried to tell you arsenal over fenerbachs and udinese over tottenhams

remember, last yr doesnt make them good this yr

aston villa is the best bet

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:33 PM

But my fear for Arsenal was that Gallas and Toure weren't in the lineup. Of course, Fenerbahce are a ghost of their former self following the sale of their pointman, Mateja Kezman and the departure of their Brazilian coach. I think they've now won only 2 in 9, if I'm right.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 01:35 PM

well today i like arsenal and portsmouth a bit.
i will do copenhagen on your recomendation but im not sure of it

udinesse game is 11 on 10 now, its done
good call by ryan

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:38 PM

Aston Villa fans, John Carew has been ruled out of the lineup. That's no good news.

Hertha Berlin deserve not to be in the UEFA Cup. They sneaked into the UEFA Cup through the back door on the premise of their performance in something called Intertoto Cup, which is rubbish. They've only managed one win in 4 at home and that was against very mediocre opposition. I see Benfica telling them the "truth" today.
Final note and trend: Two German teams hardly win in Europe on the same day. Now that Hamburg has posted a win, trust Hertha to end up on the reverse.

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 01:48 PM

Not a good start by Copenhagen but it's still a long day.

Sorry Ryan. I mistook Benfica for Copenhagen. Anyways, I don't see St. Etienne's road form as being much of an obstacle to a Copenhagen win. My prediction for that game is 3-1 to Copenhagen and Etienne have scored their only goal of the game.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 02:01 PM

i dont thinkn danish league is good dude

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 02:03 PM

They're good. Copenhagen, in particular, are good. Let's see what happens. Copenhagen can't fail to score at home in all of 90 mins.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 02:12 PM

how do you know copenhagen is good? bc they win danish league? is that a good league, i dont know anything about them
i know i won udinese easily and moscow too

now, i want aston and portsmouth bc copenhagen sucks!!!

go phillies

**Wilforth** · 10-23-08, 02:27 PM

Another misleading pick. Truly, Copenhagen sucks.

**ryanXL977** · 10-23-08, 02:28 PM

thats all im saying. just looking at league records isnt accurate. french league is better than danish. danish sucks. dutch is good.

now, aston is my play of the day but i won moscow and udi already

portsmouth already losing but aston was my 5 unite play
