To all you Barca fans out there if you know 5+ players on the Barca bench I am taking my hat to you. I consider myself quite knowledgeable about these things but I never heard about half of this guys. Good thing they have 5 substitutes, we should bet on how many they will make this match Smiley
So here it goes, Barca bench for one of most important games of the season:
Neto
Junior Firpo
Inaki Pena
Ricard Puig
Ansu Fati
Ronald Araujo
Monchu
Oscar Mingueza
Konrad de la Fuente
Ludovit Reis
Alejandro Orellana

@daddy good to see you picked both favourites tonight. Need them to win to bring my 6/1 parlay home, and I know none are really certain but counting on skill, patience and experience tonight.

I’ve just made a just in case ticket, both on draw no bet  Wink

@toke nicely done but Napoli were crappy in the league against technically inferior opponents, I know Barca aren't anywhere near their best either but I can't see a way through for the Italians unless the Catalans really play awful.

@daddy good to see you picked both favourites tonight. Need them to win to bring my 6/1 parlay home, and I know none are really certain but counting on skill, patience and experience tonight.

Either way, watching them for sure.

By the way, anyone betting on the 20/21 prelim qualifiers in Switzerland? The opponents -- Tre Fiori, Moldovan maybe -- for the Irish team were 35/1 to win until Linfield managed to score just now. Looks like a crazy bet and I know next to nothing about them but the Irish boys don't even generally get past qualifiers even for Europa. Trying to find out how these guys managed to play, is this a new ruling or just I never was aware or is this something to do with Nations League?

Be cool if any of these exotic names make it to group.

3 more points grabbed yesterday on 2:1 Juve-Lyon, over 2.5 goals on both matches -> won, a pretty good score  Cool
and Juventus kicked out another time from CL, yeah, very good  Grin

For today's picks I will go on 2:0 on both, I think that the hosts should easily win those matches and get prepared for the next round

That will be my main ticket for today also, Bayern and Barcelona to win, with a tot @2.38

Anyone know when the line-ups get announced? They don't seem to have been yet. I won't submit my score until I see who's starting. I wonder if Bale will be on the bench? Real are stupid for not even benching him. They're also stupid for not loaning him out at least. Nobody is going to pay Bale's wages but I'm sure they could find someone to pay 10% or 20% of them at least and that's 10-20% they're saving if they have absolutely no intention of playing him. To be honest, if they're not going to play him they should just let him go anywhere that will have him. It's a damn shame he isn't playing football. He would be a nice addition to a team in the PL.


so? Juve & Real to win today or what? Cool
those are my pool picks: 2:1 & 0:2

I will make some over goals on my bets, and will definitely make the Real to win the CL ad a just for fun bet, cause its around 25/1, so there is always a little chance

City vs Real could be a draw.  2 - 2?  Grin  

City should win, but I could see a draw maybe. Both teams to score in each half might be a nice one.

I cashed the parlay.  Yipeee.  Winning a football bet feels a lot better for some reason.  

Anyway what do you guys think of Napoli goinng thru?  Could they do a Lyon and take Barca out?  This is the best time to do it imho.

Edit:  I'm so temtped to take the double chance on Napoli at 2.47..

@Trofo, my setup for tonight looked similar - some beer and two screens - one game on TV and another on PC. I'm still getting down in Champions league pool, so I don't pay that much attention to it anymore. But at least I'm doing well in gambling now. Champions league and Europa league was very profitable for me after restart. Now I'm just waiting for tomorrow and Barca's game. Though, I'm not very confident about getting through Napoli, considering how bad this season we are.

All set for today's matches. it is about time to test my new Data provider with 500MB download optical link. Should be more than enough for two Full HD game streams for myself and for my baby girl to watch cartoons on Netflix and leave me in peace with beers.

Cheers guys  Grin



Edit: Damn, how I missed CL. I needed one half of proper football to erase all the gambling loses in the last month  Grin Had both to score on both games for quarter of my bank (5x my usual high stake)

I am also feeling City and Juventus to win but in City match we are going to have over 3 goals also very good for bet because both will play some good attacking game.

And if there's a reeeally good time for Napoli to beat Barca, it's now imho.  Injuries, Messi unhappy, and other problems within the club...

And I parlayed a little something on Juve to win ML and both teams to score for City vs Real at 2.38ish.  What do you guys think?

Isn't there only nine games left? If so,  that's a potential max 27 number of points. Bigdaddy is on 126 in first place so that's a 33 gap between him and me down in 13th place so impossible to catch him even if I tried. There's only 13 points between 2nd and 13th though so claiming a top 5 prize is possible for most of us if we do great and the ones above not so. I think bigdaddy has the number one spot in the bag though as that 20 point lead is nigh on impossible to catch even for examplens in second place.

Yup! I put it in the wrong thread but big_daddy is unasailable. Was virtually impossible to catch him before lockdown, but now out of the question. Early congratulations, guess he showed us who the big daddy really was huh.

As you point out, it's the best of the rest for us plebs and it's a lot of points for a lot of people. Smart move is to go with the crowd, but I'd like to get some distance early and then try to make up for it later if my strategy falls flat.

Anyway for tonight: not for Real or Barca, and have had to come up against both in the past 20 years, and have had Reds go to both too (Xabi, Macherano, I miss you guys) so of course it's sweet to beat them and I still want a rematch with Ramos, but I'm all about the odds tonight. Be nice to get in loads of goals but with the bois in white on top.

~ I have a high stake ticket with both CL games as both to score so I am happy as long as goals come in.

good luck with that one!
I have over 2.5 on both CL games tonight, so, yes, let's support the goal scoring than and both happy  Grin

@Trofo is probably a fan of Real Madrid, I'm not
Unfortunately  Sad I can't watch the game tonight, but City-Real is a must watch one.

You are not reading your gambling threads carefully enough, I am declared as "occasional Barcelona supporter but mainly likes to see good match with lots of goals" in Spanish League thread OP Smiley So definitely more of Barca fan.

That being said I am thinking City should get this but if Real progresses also fine with me if they both score a goal. I have a high stake ticket with both CL games as both to score so I am happy as long as goals come in.

^So that’s 33 plus slam points in game to catch right?

Yup. If you're coming from the future.

Nope, 11 to go. 4 rematches from the R16 (Juve-Lyon, City-Real, Barcelona-Napoli and Bayern-Chelsea), 4 quarterfinals, 2 semis and a final.

Still, not much of a difference for the 1st spot because big_daddy's won this one in the group stage already. It will be interesting for other paying spots though, it's close there.

So I posted in the wrong thread yesterday haha, thanks Indymoney for pointing that out. Silly me. The more I see it, the more I'm thinking Real's going to snatch this, and if they actually progress I also have quite a nice sum waiting for me on a bet yet to settle on Real progressing made pre lockdown.



I doubt they can win this, but it will be interesting if they get an early goal or score first. I'd say a city win but it'll probably be close.

Still tinkering with my picks. We're bunched up so close together I know a half point could be the difference between prizes and no prizes =D


Yep very tight up there behind bigdaddy- I’m still hoping to get up into the top 5 somehow.
Still fancy Real to do it and Bale has decided not to travel to Manchester as he knew he wouldn’t get a game ! Cant work Zidane and Bale out - at least put Bale on the bench to bring on when your 1 goal down and 10 mins left - it’s what he loves ??

11 matches left - not a lot of points to play with - Good luck all  Wink
