Topic: Conmebol Libertadores 2024 - page 3. (Read 753 times)

If they had won I am sure no one would say a thing about such altitude as what is important in the end of the day are the three points.I think Flamengo needs to do better as in the new Serie A in Brazil are looking relatively in good performance and for sure the Brazilian league is of better quality than the Bolivian league.I think it was a surprise result that Flamengo lost and complaining about high altitude is just a justification to them not being able to win the game.

There are 4 Libertadores matches today, take a look at the odds

If you believe in the Brazilian teams, you have a good chance of making some money
I'm thinking of betting on São Paulo and Fluminense to win, but I'm betting low since the Brazilian teams have started very badly in the Libertadores.

Will anyone be placing any bets today?

The Libertadores games are very difficult, the teams give their all, especially because a player doing well in this championship can get good contracts, salary increases, everything is possible financially, money moves the world, right? lol

Yesterday Flamengo lost playing in Bolivia... and as always the players complaining about playing at altitude (3600m above sea level), if they had won, would they complain that much?

It's been a long time since I watched a Libertadores game, yesterday I watched Estudiantes x Gremio in Group C and what a game it was. It wasn't easy at all, but Gremio won 1-0 away from home and with one player less from the start of the second half and thus remained in contention within the group. Today I intend to watch the Flamengo game.

I think your way of thinking makes sense, when they reach a European team they are just “one more”, so they have to work hard to have “their place in the sun”, unlike what happens when they are in leagues in their countries of origin, countries where they are already considered stars and most of the time they have no competition... In Europe they have to show their service, otherwise they are left out, unlike what happens in other leagues.

You got both your predictions right, Atlético and Cerro Porteno won 


In today's matches we have Botafogo vs LDU at altitude, I think LDU wins... and also Palmeiras vs Liverpool in São Paulo, I believe Palmeiras will win without any major difficulties....

Any guesses for the other games?

wow, good thinking!
I didn't remember that Flamengo's game was broadcast on TV Globo.
But anyway, it was an excellent game for Flamengo who had an easy victory against Palestino. Sao Paulo also stood out and beat Cobresal.

I'm looking forward to watch the Palmeiras game tomorrow, I have no doubt it will be an exciting game to watch.

what is even stranger is that these same players from South America who have been playing in the South American leagues and play in a strangely elegant way in the leagues of their countries and go to Europe, they start to play very well in Europe and even run very. This is something I always ask myself because they don't try very hard in the South American leagues and when they are playing for European teams they play very well. Maybe because in Europe they realize that there are many other good players and if they try hard they can have a lot of fame and money so they try hard to play well. I could be wrong in my way of thinking

Atlético - Rosario

This is a game in which Atletico will play at home and they need to take advantage of this advantage. In the last 10 games Atletico lost in just 1 game. I don't know how difficult the games were or not, but it's a fact that they only had 1 defeat in the last 10 games. while their opponent in the last 10 games they lost in 5 games. and comes into this game with a defeat. I think that in this game Atletico will win, the odds for Atletico to win are 1.45, I still see it as a low odds. but if it was above 1.70 I would probably bet on Atletico.

Cerro Porteño - Alianza Lima

This is a very complicated game to predict the result, both teams are coming off a defeat in that competition. Cerro Porteño are doing well in the Paraguayan league, in the last 5 games they have only had 1 defeat and are in second place in the table, they are a candidate for the Paraguayan league title at the moment, maybe later things will change and they will not be candidates to the title. while in the case of Alianza Lima, in the last 5 games they only had 2 victories, they have already gone through bad times when they had a sequence of 3 defeats, but from what I see they managed to recover and have two consecutive victories and in the league Peru, they still have a chance to fight for the title. In my opinion, Cerro Porteño will win this game

Fluminense had a very difficult game against Colo-Colo, as current champions, they will be the team to beat, everyone will want to know exactly how Fluminense behaves on the field.

And what a beautiful goal Fluminense's first was, it even reminded me of my goals playing FIFA 22 lol

I'm going to take advantage of the fact that I'm a little sick and I'm not going to the gym and try to watch tomorrow's games, Flamengo will be broadcast on TV Globo

The second round of the Libertadores group stage has already started.

Fluminense had a great victory against Colo-Colo and took first place in Group A of the Libertadores.

Later we will have Flamengo x Palestino game and also Sao Paulo x Cobresal.
And tomorrow we will have some interesting games, such as Palmeiras x Liverpool and River Plate x Nacional.

Is anyone else watching some games!?

There is also the season for the South American teams that starts well before the Brazilian championship, so while the Brazilian teams are playing pre-season and state championships, the other teams have already been playing in the main league for at least 2 months... for the pace of the game this makes all the difference

Hmm...that's an interesting question.
I believe there are some variables that may have affected the performance of some teams, for example the start of the championship.
As there are teams from different countries in South America, each one has a "different playing style", different stadiums and sometimes the altitude can be a problem for some teams that are not used to playing at high altitudes.

I imagine that during the championship the teams may get used to it and their performance may improve, especially the Brazilian teams.

I also thought that São Paulo would beat this team, I still think that Brazilian teams don't know very well how their South American opponents play, so they have a lot of difficulty, even against a team that isn't doing very well (which isn't the Telleres case).

What will be missing? because as @rdluffy said, only Atlético MG had a good result... is there a lack of study of opponents? perhaps some deficiency in the scouting teams of the Brazilian teams, identifying the possible weaknesses of the opponents and training this before the matches.

Sometimes I confess that I am impressed by Sao Paulo's performance.
I had expectations that he could beat Telleres in this last Libertadores game, but that didn't happen. After the game, I carried out a "quick search" and saw that Telleres is performing well in the Argentine championship so far. I believe this is enough to show the quality and good performance that Telleres had playing against Sao Paulo.
Let's see how these teams will perform in the next games.

By the way, congratulations and thanks for creating this topic @criptoevangelista
I have no doubt that the Copa Libertadores is a very well-known and competitive championship. I hope this all generates a lot of discussion on the Gambling Discussion board

Yes I am from Venezuela, however I do not follow regional matches as much as I do with international ones or those which are supposed to face national selections against each other.
I am trying to keep my expectations low, our country does not have an history of being able to qualify to World Cups. It is a very different situation from what we see from countries like Brazil or Argentina, whose qualifications are almost taken from granted.

I believe we are reached a point were, even though we would like to qualify to the world cup, it has been literal decades we have had underperforming when compared to other football clubs in Latin America.
Whatever happens, it does not mean one cannot take these occasions to try to pocket some money thanks to sport betting and the liquidity offered by latin American markets on Football. This market may be one of the biggest ones in that regard.

It's nice, you're Venezuelan
The national team has a good chance of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, you must be excited...
...and that could reflect on the Libertadores campaign too

The big problem here is that both Deportivo Táchira and Caracas are in very difficult groups with very traditional Libertadores opponents, such as River Plate, Nacional, Peñarol and Atlético MG, but both teams have chances

Of the Brazilian teams, only Atlético MG managed a good result in the first round.
Is it just the first round, due to nerves, or could Brazil's dominance come to an end this year? hehehe

That shot on goal was horrible, really bad...

I find it impressive that a professional player makes this mistake, after all he trains every day, he is accompanied by professionals from the most diverse areas of the sport, this player's only concern is playing ball, everything else has someone doing for him. .. and the individual misses the shot, any small child playing football in the street would score that goal... Very bizarre.

I hope that in the next rounds the level of football improves, because as you said, it was very bad. But the intensity of Europe is something that won't happen in the Libertadores, the style is very different, South American teams don't have the tactical quality of European teams.


I don't follow football in Venezuela much, do the teams from your country that are in this Libertadores have a chance of standing out in the championship?

To be honest, I just want to see my country (Venezuela) to shine a bit in this incoming Copa Libertadores. Historically, we have never performed well in football, but lately our team has managed to score some good points, special in the the end of the 2023. (Mano, tengo fe).
If my country managed to win the cup, together with the right to participate in the next football world cup, it would be beyond amazing. All this country would be full of marketing looking forward to it.

However, I would not be surprised Argentina managed to over perform again as the champions of the world they are, and managed to secure this cup as well. Time will tell. The only sure thing is I am planning to bet some bucks on this edition. 

Awesome result for Junior yesterday and well debut with 3 points in a group that is very balanced.

Right now , I'm watching Rosario - Penarol and even if Rosario had a great first half and played great football , Penarol is having a great run lately and I would be surprised if they won't score and then maybe play for a draw.

It seems that the Brazilian teams were unlucky in this round, Flamengo drew in the game against Millionaires, in a game in which the Millionaires player received a red card in the 61st minute and thanks to that, Flamengo benefited from a penalty and scored a goal. , but even though Flamengo was playing with 11 players while their opponent was playing with only 10 players, Flamengo still couldn't win that game, they conceded 1 goal and the game ended in a draw, Flamengo played very badly, There's no quality, the way they played was horrible, when I see this kind of thing:



the Flamengo player simply wasted a clear opportunity to score a goal because he is not a player with good foot technique, that is the problem currently in America, in the past we saw many good players leaving America for Europe, today we are seeing a great reduction in the quality of players from America, it can be seen that in many leagues there are few Brazilian players when compared to the past where Brazilian players were always highlighted.  I wonder how far Flamengo will go with this low level? One thing I'm convinced is that Flamengo won't get far in this competition and when I say far I mean reaching the semi-finals and finals

fluminense draw
Palmeiras draw
Flamengo draw

We will see in the next rounds if these Brazilian teams will have better results, but it seems to me that this competition needs to improve a lot in the quality of the players, from what I could see of these games, they looked like games involving teams from Africa. they are competing with the level of teams from the 2nd division of England, perhaps even the level of teams or league from the second division of England is better. I could see situations in which the referee ignored, the games themselves were slow, they didn't have that level of intensity that you see in European football

You were quicker than me to create the Libertadores thread hahaha
People outside South America have no idea what the Libertadores feels like, and they don't pay much attention, they only look at the European leagues

Only the Libertadores provides memorable matches between Argentinians and Brazilians, or Brazilians and Uruguayans
Games at altitude in Bolivia, difficult games for any Brazilian at La Bombonera packed with Boca Juniors fans, the terror it was for the Brazilians to play against Riquelme etc
Not to mention the matches with countless fouls, expulsions hahaha

This year I'm still studying the favorites, does anyone here already have an opinion on the bets?
