I like the way you think ralle14!

You got legged by Napoli yesterday as I suspect many did as well including myself in the pool(s).

Europa league Match of the day seems like a good one as you have already mentioned the requirement for the any time goalscorer had been removed and not needed for this special to hit.

Now i'm at the point where i'll try to fade my pick since the opposite has been hitting and out of the MOTDs we have today, I like AS Roma for some reason. That means i'll be going with Slavia Prague as my MOTD pick. 

The good thing for today's MOTD is that we don't have to worry about a player needing a goal because they've removed the ATGS part, which I hope continues, as it's usually the leg that would kill the bet.

Yup, Newcastle couldn't find a single goal and it was the only thing I needed for the special to hit.

I decided to skip the specials for today after Newcastle fucked me over. Real Madrid's MOTD caught my attention since it's a bit better than the regular MOTD, but i'm still hesitating because i've heard others mention Bellingham's recent injury.

This parlay is the only thing I placed atm, as I think i'm better off taking the home favorites when most of the visiting teams this round are sitting on the lower end of their groups.



Edit: Napoli, the only home favorite failing today and the team I least expect to ruin my parlay.  

Impossible as it may sound but both these matches went in opposite directions as many thought it would. Well maybe not for the Dortmund game since they were favorites going into it without a loss in the tournament so far.
Don't think Newcastle scored in the match as I was watching the Shakhtar one instead just before they scored the second goal to put Barcelona away.

Should of taken Shakhtar instead @21x am I right?
Just kidding. I don't think anybody would of thought Donetsk blanking Barca in that match especially with Lewandowski on the pitch.
Think I seen him still on there during the 86th minute of play so he might have been on there for the entire match.
Some real surprises during these Champions league games.

That one has potential for sure but the odds sucks at exacly 2.0. If only they give atleast 2.4 then I would have taken that for sure. Rather than taking this special, I guess I might just go with either both team to score at this match and Barcelona to win or rather taking this abit risky by taking Barcelona to win by half time seems like a more reasonable bet compared to MOTD

I got a free bet from the clubhouse rewards and i'll be using it on the BTTS and o8.5 corner combo for the Newcastle vs Dortmund match. There's no way Newcastle would sit still after losing at home a few weeks back.



I also liked the Barcelona MOTD and thought it should hit when they've been winning every match, but i'm starting to think Shakhtar has a better chance of getting something out of this match after keeping it close in their last meeting.

The Sportsbet Specials are all about the match against Newcastle vs Borussia Dortmund being included in the ClubhouseTV section.
I would rather put something on this one than Shakhtar vs Barcelona with the odds the way they are.

The Tottenham special yesterday was looking good until the referee began taking the goal by Son away. Then it went downhill from there.
Hot Spurs received a second red card later in the half and were playing with 9 players on the pitch.
Hopefully that doesn't happen in this Champions league match today.

Kinda expected this shitstorm anyway because we have won the MOTD special twice with Tottenham wasnt it iirc so I kinda expect that this is bound to happen anytime soon. I thought it would end with 1-1 but heck yeah Chelsea is a goofball after all, their results are pretty weird especially after they hold Arsenal then somehow lose to Brentford then only to win against Tottenham


Anyway we got one potential MOTD for today, Newcastle with Wilson to score at 5.25

Unfortunately, we got cooked with those red cards and Son's goal was removed(offside) in the first half. I thought one was still doable for Tottenham and then the second red came in during the early second half.

This week was rough with all these upsets and unexpected results, but hopefully, we can bounce back tomorrow with the UCL matches.

The only reason I bet on this is because I got extra free bet to spare otherwise I might skip it tonight. I mean Son had a good time playing so far but Chelsea would have already realized this by now and might shut him down tonight. I still personally think Tottenham is way better than Chelsea but for Son to score is just another matter to consider but hey its a free bet for me so I hope this hit tonight 

I caught this at the final minute before it got removed from the specials page. This one looks promising when Chelsea has been on and off recently while Tottenham plans to extend their streak.

I also have another bet on Tottenham's team total over 1.5, but this MOTD is the value pick when all three can align if they make at least two goals against Chelsea.
 

It was really the start of the great in-season tournament for the NBA so here is the result of my picks

Chicago Bulls (1.58) VS Brooklyn Nets (2.44) - LOST


It was really a close game for these 2 teams the Brooklyn Nets had a great start in the 1st quarter but it was a change in the 2nd quarter as the Chicago Bulls had gotten that quarter, until the 3rd quarter when the tables turned again with the Brooklyn Nets now getting the 4th quarter this time it was my lost but it was really a great game to watch as it was a close one, Mikal Bridges, Cam Thomas, and Dorian Finney-Smith was really the one that is aggressive for the Brooklyn Nets and I really thought that the Bulls will win this but those 3 players have made it possible even though Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan, both got 24 points,

Portland Trail Blazers (2.04) VS Memphis Grizzlies (1.78) - WIN


For sure the Memphis Grizzlies are having a hard time they still don't have any wins yet even though Desmond Bane and Jaren Jackson Jr. had a great game but because the Portland Trail Blazers had a good spread with this game it was a game over for the Memphis Grizzlies, as Deandre Ayton did a great thing with the Trail Blazers defense and he is gotten a double-double of 12 rebounds and 16 points as Malcolm Brogdon, Shaedon Sharpe, and Jerami Grant looks awesome in some way in leading this game with the needed score for the team,

^^
That is interesting about the tournament and pay structure for the players.
They had a commercial running for this occasion set in a casino with the guy from The Soparnos narrating the storyline of the tournament:

Today we have the Sportsbet Special as follows:

That's right, it's really happening and I think this new small league inside the NBA Season will have an effect on how the players will play and that's because of the prize pool which is not announced in that article.
But I had a glimpse of it while watching the Golden State Warriors versus the OKC Thunder yesterday, like it's $500k for "each" player who will this tournament. I don't know if I am correct at what I saw though and here is the article made by Forbes.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoniopequenoiv/2023/11/03/nba-in-season-tournament-starts-tonight-heres-what-to-know-about-the-new-competition/?sh=22c2621f5461
It's small if it will just be $500k for the whole team and will not be enough to boost the energy of the players, even the bench, so I think $500k each was the right one although there's no exact detail yet.
In-season is also to blame for that eyesore homecourt of the OKC Thunder. Super blue.

^^ Today is the start of the NBA In-Season tournament with those matches:

The rules and outline of these matchups for the next few weeks:

Looking forward to the Dallas Maverick vs the Denver Nuggets as the champions of last season lost their last game which was a shock right before this matchup tonight against Doncic and the Mavs.

Markets for these and future NBA games can be viewed here:

Actually, I am really shocked seeing Francis Ngannou do well against Tyson Fury, and for sure the scorecards really had a shit reputation in boxing that it is obvious why did they give a plus score for Tyson Fury if Fury was seen gassing out well after this fight many did say that instead of a Tyson Fury VS Oleksandr Usyk fight they now want to switch Tyson Fury with Francis Ngannou to fight Oleksandr Usyk, which is for me I really want to see Francis Ngannou versus other Heavyweight boxer that will be interesting,

Now here are my bets and predictions for the NBA games for today

Milwaukee Bucks VS New York Knicks

The stake odds for this game are 1.39 for the Bucks and 3.15 for the Knicks, for this game Andre Jackson Jr. has a hip injury and is questionable if he can play for the Milwaukee Bucks while RJ Barrett has a knee injury and is questionable if he can play for the New York Knicks, and in this game, the Milwaukee Bucks right now got a problem with Damian Lillard but for me they still have a healthy Giannis Antetokounmpo, so for me, I will be going with the Milwaukee Bucks,

Miami Heat VS Washington Wizards

The stake odds for this game are 1.26 for the Heat and 4.10 for the Wizards, for this game Caleb Martin has a knee injury and can not play and Jimmy Butler also has a knee injury but is questionable if he can play for the Miami Heat, while Daniel Gafford and Corey Kispert both has an ankle injury and are questionable if they can play for the Washington Wizards and right now I guess the Washington Wizards still doesn't get their chemistry intact and Jordan Poole is playing like a bastard, so for me, I am going with the Miami Heat,

Oklahoma City Thunders VS Golden State Warriors

The stake odds for this game are 2.55 for the Thunder and 1.55 for the Warriors, for this game Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has a knee injury, Kenrich Williams has a back injury and both can not play for the Oklahoma City Thunders, and Jaylin Williams has a Hamstring injury are questionable if he can play for the Thunders while the Golden State Warriors doesn't have any injuries, and for me, that is a great thing for the Golden State Warriors so for this game I will be going with the Golden State Warriors,

Euroleague basketball I do not have an ounce of experience betting on it so couldn't tell you how to bet on the current special but I think it did lose according to what ralle14 posts about the specials that he passed on.

Manchester United play Fulham when the teams make a return this weekend to the EPL play and they are up first. So we will see how they respond to the defeat at the hands of Newcastle tomorrow.
Here are the lines if you want bet on your team:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/england/premier-league/fulham-fc-v-manchester-united-653505ff34ce9a0001d2421e
Or bet against them again, maybe it is the better play to make.
Anyhow you choose good luck on your bets this weekend as it is filled with alot of variety to choose from in F1, UFC, EPL events.

Ahh thats why I couldnt find them on flashscore' football tab. Yeah I think this type of special could go both ways especially in basketball. The last special like this type ended up losing wasnt it


lol obviously Manchester United. Huge fan of them and would stay as a fan even when they are in deep shit like this. I love to have them to win but I need to be logical when it comes to betting therefore I took that bet lol. If the odds was on 3x or something, I would probably skip that but considering that the odds was 6x then there is no way Im skipping that. Glad that ended up winning
