See what happens after getting all the praise for last week's yellow cap?

0 points for getting absolute nothing. Of course, still early games but hate that I was going to pick a draw for Friday until I decided to take some risks to catch hahay. Well done on the 3-pointers to most of you.

Poor Juventus. They were the favourites too. Not sure why.

Damn you are good buwaytress.

This is the only league where I have a chance I think although other one in La Liga is also not so bad as I mentioned before,,, strange for me as the league I know is doing crap. But you are in high positions here and on EPL. Is this your first yellow cap for Serie A? It is way higher than even me in 2nd place  Grin 7 whole points!

it was a really tough round
I am not a good indicator, since my performance is bad regardless of score, but this round seems to be really tough, with all matches going another side that favorites

Sassuolo is really a bugger, with their home draw, Cagliari cannot be worse, and they could not win over them

Yeah, they were this round's Sevilla, killing a lot of us on accas. I started Friday well but bets over the weekend and Monday were all "almost" but didn't make it thanks to just 1 or 2 teams. Can't win them all huh.

@buwaytress
Sorry man, I'll have to kick you out you, we do not approve results like yours in our pool. There has obviously been some inside information sharing which is strictly prohibited unless you let me know so I can place the bets Smiley

Kidding aside I asked for 2 correct scores from myself to salvage gameweek and I delivered. Even better I cashed on some nice freebets in the process. Why can't it be this easy every day?

Heh I had no idea I'd do so well, and yes hahay is still in #1 spot but at least we've all cut his lead down. Too bad it's not yet quite like Verstappen being chased by Hamilton and everyone else or it'd be a tight and nervy finish, but at least we can keep it exciting for the early to mid season Wink

Nice going with the bets, man but yeah I love that feeling of a big win from a freebet! I chose to put freebet from predictions onto a special but lost that on one leg.

I haven't cashed out a freebet since before internationals, but not complaining, as I haven't really been winning them much Wink

Not even gonna comment pool performance, just hope i'll get at least one exact score tonight.

I did not think that Napoli and Milan would get their first defeat of the season in week 13, and to be honest I am very surprised if this season when Milan drew, Napoli also got a draw in the previous few matches, and even what happened today did not much different from before, when Milan lost to Fiorentina but Napoli also couldn't win when dealing intermilan, so with this defeat it didn't change the position between Napoli and Milan at the top of the standings.

I totally forgot they were still holding their unbeaten seasons! Liverpool lost theirs just before the break, and then now these two. That Fiorentina hot shot headed to Newcastle apparently? Vladi something. All due respect, those are what I call flop potentials. And not just because it's Newcastle. I remember Liverpool also has loads of those "buy this guy from other league because he's top and he comes and doesn't do well". Difference with Klopp is he buys to fit a system, not just Moneyball buying.

I'm backing a home double today and first match just started =)

I guess you were wrong about teams not showing up as Napoli still managed to score 2 goals from 2 shots on target,,, that must be very frustrating for Inter to know they have to keep scoring and watch their back, but everybody knows Napoli can find goals so maybe it is not such a great surprise.

I did now know earlier that Lazio had their star striker injured or I would have been much more confident of a loss for them.
Also had no idea that Ciro is not playing, lost two otherwise winning multi tickets on that one goal from Lazio I needed.

Inter - Napoli went pretty much as I expected goal wise, but Inter was much better than I gave them credit for. Important win for them, should help keep that title dream going a bit longer. Roma finally managed to win even after a series of bad results. They needed more than 80 minutes to open up Genova defense but in the end 3 points is all that's gonna matter.

Not even gonna comment pool performance, just hope i'll get at least one exact score tonight.

Right guys, hahay still high in the lead even though he's got 1 point (yeah man sorry but I'm looking at you all the way heh) and we did have a surprise or two yesterday so far, but nothing much changes as not many people went for upsets.

Going for a rare favourite acca today and Inter's part of it so I'll be backing them to win, BTTS looks solid too but this could also be a scoreless effort for one of the teams, judging from yesterday's results all over Europe, some people just aren't showing up.

I would prefer Napoli to win but I don't think they will be able to overcome Inter. Both teams have some serious fire power up front so I know what my bet will be (BTTS) for sure. Smells like a high scoring draw, maybe 2:2.
I don't even know what to do ... on the one hand, gorgeous odds for Napoli's victory, on the other hand, there is a feeling that Inter is just the team that will interrupt Napoli's unbeaten streak. I don’t remember what choice I made in the pool before leaving on vacation (but I will hope that I gave preference to Inter). But if you are not guided by common sense, then I would really like that the victory over Inter was the starting point for Napoli's victory this season.  Cool

I would add, smells like a pretty good match
Dzeko is one of my favorite players, so I have to be a bit inclined to Inter, but draw seems likely as well, maybe I am wrong (not following Calcio closely), but it seems that Calcio derby rarely end with a draw, and last ended with a draw between Milan and Inter, so I do think that this one will have a winner

yeah, Lazio is known to have fascist support, but that does not make you a fascist if you like Lazio, IMO

nevertheless, beside Lazio and Juve, for me it is more interesting to see how Napoli will do in Milano, since Inter is hosting them, will this be the end of their series without a lose? I do not consider betting on that one, but since it is pool, have to put something, and leaned to Inter win (maybe there will be some change, but at the moment, I think that Inter is going to win that one)
Milan is playing with Viola, and that is also interesting, seems to hard to win for Milan

Indeed. If I were to be labelled according to the brands and clubs I like/follow, I'd be a very mixed up kid. I do like the Liverpool association with working class roots, although it's hard sometimes to reconcile that with modern sponsorships etc.

My heart says Napoli for this clash but I've gone with an Inter win. At most, I'll switch to a draw. Follow the leader at this stage is the name of the game, otherwise we slip behind even farther.
I don't think politics should be involved in sports so I ignore that aspect completely. I am just interested in what the teams show on the pitch.

Serie A bump! Don't forget to play Trofo's prediction thread for Sportsbet freebies!

Late to the politics, but yeah I remember when I shared a couple of seasons ago I was supporting Lazio (betting wise and hey, my old boy Lucas Leiva was having the time of his life there at the time), then 2 guys started shooting me all the SS symbols of the Lazio ultras, and then recently  about Mussolini's great-grandson now named in the squad this season.

I mean, I do think football should kick out all of that, but just because a club has ultras isn't going to make me hate them =p Some of the Moroccan club ultras have fantastic songs, and they're leftist but equally radical, and that doesn't make me love them more either haha.

Thank you for the reminder, jeremypwr also has new predictions out. I remember wasting the freebets from the last ones I won but I can feel I will be more careful with the next ones.

Juventus must win this one coming but I guess Lazio have found a way to be winning,,, but as we all know teams have a different mentality coming back to normal football so maybe a draw is the most possible outcome for me. But still! I go for away win Smiley

Slava Ukraini!
One of the reasons why he left the post of head coach of the Ukrainian national team is probably that he was not satisfied with the Nazi mood in the team. Just imagine on the inside of each T-shirt it was written "Glory only to Ukraine and death to enemies", (this will not be shown on the news, but you may have heard how UEFA got involved in this scandal). In short, I am also very glad that the Milan pupil has now taken the helm of one of the Italian clubs!  Cheesy
Was it really needed to bring politics to this topic? What nazi mood you're talking about? As far as I know, on Ukraine shirt it was written ''Glory to Ukraine'' and ''Glory to heroes''. I don't know where did you got this phrase.

Shevchenko is back in Italy, this time as a manager as he takes over Genoa: [...] A few years in charge of Ukraine's national team, but no experience as a manager at club level. I'm curious to see how things pan out for him and Genoa, and whether he can keep them out of the relegation zone despite another sluggish start to the season. I'm willing to make a bet that there will be another coaching change in Genoa if D'Aversa and Samp don't win their next match (vs. Salernitana) after the international break.

Genoa hired former AC Milan and Chelsea forward Andriy Shevchenko as coach on Sunday, a day after firing Davide Ballardini.

The 45-year-old Shevchenko signed a contract until June 2024.

It will be very interesting to follow Sheva in Genoa, I'm going to watch some Genoa just because of him. He used to be one of my favourite players back in old good Milan times. Yeah, he don't have experience in clubs, but he turned Ukraine into really strong team. I hope he will save Genoa from relegation.
BTW, there is not much talk about it, but does anyone think that Mourinho will be sacked this season? Complete failure against Bodo/Glimt, lose against Venezia and they failed to win against all strong teams in league - Lazio, Juve, Napoli, Milan.
