Atalanta almost let themselves down after taking a 2 goal lead

Nah they had it under control for the most part, missed on a few decent chances in the second half to make it a more Atalanta-like result. Gasperini is still heavily rotating players in and out of the starting lineup, not sure how is this going to turn...but i don't like it, they might drop points here and there whilst the CL group stage is on.

Lukaku to score and Inter to win and score 2+goals is my simple pick of the day.

Wasn't Lukaku announced to be missing this game on Friday, at least Inter didn't win...

Bologna 3:2 Cagliari

Fucking finally, a win after three straight losses! Bologna are a decent team, underrated by most with excellent attacking players but they do so many and so often silly mistakes on defense, it's not even funny. I think they cost me at least 7+ pts so far...

Took this right after Simeone's goal (home win was @4.90...not sure why i didn't pick that one instead)

Sadness for this thread, but I guess with only one game played (Atalanta almost let themselves down after taking a 2 goal lead!) we're all waiting to share our superb picks here, eh? Inter's just about started now but I'm going to be preparing for a Liverpool game.

Lukaku to score and Inter to win and score 2+goals is my simple pick of the day.

Congrats to tokeweed for scoring the highest number of points this round and taking down the yellow cap, he is also +3 places up in the standings, so well-done!

After being top3 in the previous 4 rounds, i ended up dead last this week netting a measly 3.5 points, the decent lead that i had has almost completely evaporated, it's a tight race again.

Can't wait for next round to start so i could bounce back, not a fan of the wooden spoon being displayed next to my name. Tongue

In the 80s and 90s, Italy was the leading country with by far the best teams in the world. They still have good teams, but countries like Spain, Germany and England have come closer.
I think it could be very exciting for the title this year. Juventus clear favorite, though.

Guess we both were sweating on Juventus, and then of course they bottle it.

yeah, Juventus did not win this week, after having nice time in Kyiv, it was not that unexpected, or to put it in another context, upset could be looked into this one, although i did not expect it
i am not doing well in this pool as well (sitting on the bottom), but it is actually missing results what bothers me in this pool and stick on the bottom, it is most important for one to catch right scores, guessing winners will not brought well in this point system - i have 10 results predicted well, which puts me in the middle, but only one score and that is why i am on the bottom, without much chances to be better at the moment

edit: hahay has 15 results predicted well (which is good, bearing in mind that we have 45 matches, but sits in the middle, far away from the top

That probably explains why you're not doing too well in the pool, Upsets would happen but one or two upset will always not make up for the week.

It's been a better day for me, Napoli gave me a scare not just in the pool, but with my betslip, all left is Fiorentina Over 2.5 and Juventus ML

Yup! I'm second last in both Serie A and La Liga pools -- but I'm fairly mid range every season in Premier League. My betting style is totally not fit for season-long fantasy-type games, although I have occassional success in outlier events (like winning Multi Master once in Sportsbet, and getting 5/7 and 6/7 in MajSev a couple of times, and then that crazy goal prediction contest last season betting below the average!)

Gamblers nightmare, If you ask me..

Are you still constantly chasing 'em upsets ?

Yeah, it's been a bit of a feeling here and there too for me, I usually like my upsets but with the form of every giant so skewed now, it's very hard to find odds above 15/1 now. Last two seasons you get 20/1 even 30/1 on almost every Bayern, Real and City game. Now you have Liverpool Villa 14/1 and WEST HAM vs City barely 6/1. It's shit value.

That said, have to admit my Serie A predictions are purely based on form for more than half the league cause I don't know it very well.

Yay for Lazio!

Who could have foresaw Atalanta losing to Sampdoria ??! I had 3 - 1 for Atalanta in the pool and the result was the exact opposite, I also checked the pool and realised that no one even went for a draw, let alone Sampdoria. I'm not looking forward to another week like the previous one Sad

Well we all went the same way so far, so not a big damage for you in terms of points. We at least got Inter score to a T so 3 points in the bag already, but I have a feeling we will again have a low scoring round with more surprising results coming.

Yeah, Inter made up for the initial lost points, and yet another goal from Lazio now to make it 2 - 0 against Bologna would make the perfect sense for me.

It's going to be better week compared last week, the fixture for tomorrow are somewhat easy, so there shouldn't too many upsets, at least both Juventus and Napoli would win, right ?

@Harko shit yeah, well Napoli losing in Europe after hammering Atlanta. Atalanta losing like this after THEIR Europe hammering.

@Harko shit yeah, well Napoli losing in Europe after hammering Atlanta. Atalanta losing like this after THEIR Europe hammering. I think this is all reminiscent of Liverpool circa 2014 and 2017 -- firing on all cylinders, attacking and mainly winning, but unable to find consistency. Hope this isn't going to be that season but would love to see this kind of firepower reward attacking teams with semi and final appearances in Europe!

Still almost bottom of this pool. I'm SO crap.

Very tight round, such a low scoring for all of us, the national break affected a lot of teams not only in Serie A, but overall.Plus 2 weeks break didn't help us either with keeping track of what happened with players that played during the break for national teams.

Congrats to hahay, round winner, whoever that is Grin

It was crazy week indeed, and It's not just in the Italian League but in the EPL and La Liga pool, as poorly as I performed in the Italian Pool, what if I told I did better here than in the other two pools Angry

My apologies, the winner is Hoody Hoo, not hahay, names got all mixed up for me lol

Yeah I can see that results are chaotic in almost ll leagues, like the most normal league so far is German league from my point of view.

I guess the bookies are having a good party today Grin

Germany was probably bad for them (Dortmund, Bayern, Leipzig, Leverkusen won), but in ITA1, ENG1 and ESP1 there were loads of surprises. Real, Barca, Liverpool, Chelsea, Juve all failed to win and some 2nd tier favourites (Sevilla, Lazio, Inter) also layed an egg.

I managed to get 1 point overall in the three pools I am participating Roll Eyes

yeah, i thought that i know Calcio better, but the result is obvious, i should skip this league on all my betting tickets
each round is getting worse with my predictions, but will keep trying to do better in pool, and then maybe include Calcio in betting, but it is paused for now

Eh, i wish i went with my gut and picked Napoli to win, instead of the draw...Atalanta did not look like themselves today, 4 goals conceded in 20 mins.

I couldn't go against Juventus either, despite the high odds and missing Ronaldo, i guess nobody is getting points here either.

So it was me and -CryptoViking- who got the Milan derby right, 3 points on top of that having nailed the exact result, damn! All i can say is thank you Lukaku for missing some good chances. Cheesy

Do you think we get more of them surprises tomorrow?

Hehe, yeah I watched every Milan's game this season so I knew they have the ability to take Inter. I didn't base my prediction on Ibra though, but on very good flow of the ball they have and the way their midfield is performing. I predicted that result a week ago, can't remember when did I lock it precisely.

As for other matches, lots of results that didn't go as mainstream thought it would Cheesy

Udinese is biggest surprise for me to be honest. I didn't have balls to go against Juve and Lazio despite my intuition.

Me too. At least I'm not the only one who performed so shitty today. Well, maybe Napoli win over Atalanta wasn't huge surprise. It's more surprising how did they won it.
And I remember that I had fears when Zlatan moved to Milan that he is already too old for such high level and that it will be big disappointment. But I'm so happy that I was wrong.
