Barca leading 3:2, sounds like it was good game.
it depends. If you're a neutral, it was entertaining. If you're Barca fan tho, i'd be very worried cos the team still doesn't show any signs of improvements under Xavi, Ter Stegen with yet another abysmal performance, entire defence is 2nd division tier with or without Pique,, literally every game for Barca is a high-risk 50/50 match...heh, it was funny seeing barca players wasting time...against almighty Elche lol

Sevilla and Atletico is a bit of borefest....and 50 minutes in but still no yellow cards, very very weird to see sch a "clean" game between both sides, it's usually a yellow cards galore  Grin

Sevilla? Tough, I went for Atletico win, which is probably unwise, but I need to take a bit of risk to make ground up on you Wink
I am thinking 1:1 draw tonight is the most probable result and both clubs would be probably quite happy with the draw.

Barca leading 3:2, sounds like it was good game. Defiantly time for Coutihno to move on. I mean get a hint and get lost. Barca has following players injured: Braithwhite, Depay, Fati and Pedri on the position he is playing and still he is on the bench. In the first team Gavi, Dembele, Ezzalzouli and Jutgla. Ok first 2 are good but when second two play before you....time to move on. If that was not enough Barca needed to score when it was 2:2 and Coutinho stays on the bench while Nico and Puig get in to change to score the winning goal  Grin

I've been really lucky for the first 2 games actually on this Match Day, exact scores for them, and then of course Villareal make me pay for not trusting in them to win away... hahay and rdbase the only one to score 1.5 points on this but I bet hahay is so unhappy for the 96th min goal, literally the last action of the game before whistle!

except for Premier league, I don't see much postponed matches in other leagues, especially today
regarding Premier, it is a great chance for Arsenal to have global audience today against Leeds, since there is no other option Smiley

what is a take on Sevilla tonight, will put them in for @2.7, there is not much to play for, both teams will end-up in CL spots, and without title, so this could be motivation for home team to dominate

Oh right you are, I didn't think of that, nothing else showing so everything on for that! Amazon Prime was meant to show Boxing day extravaganza so I was really looking forward to that (for the English commentary).

News is that Liverpool-Spurs is fully geared to go on tomorrow so my fingers crossed for that.

i can't deal with my tickets getting voided cos of postponements  Lips sealed  i should probably skip la liga and premier league games for the time being. I'll have plenty of ligue 1 and serie A games to choose from...not ideal but it is what it is

I'm looking also at Bundesliga now as the only one I might attack, and Serie A, but the way France and UK are going I'm not sure any of these other leagues would be good enough to trust on for longer than a week. I'm finishing up the last of my long-leg accas which I usually spread out over a week now, and just stick to the games on the day itself until this all clears. Hope there's not going to be another postponement of entire leagues...

I don't think Aguero was ever underrated. Remember him in Atl.Madrid era ? Every team feared that guy when they played against him so don't get me wrong but Aguero was always a top striker in the world no matter what. Yea , last years of his career had a lot of downsides and then a little upside but he kept it professional and whenever he had the chance to play , he gave it all.

Personally, I will never forget Aguero in his KIA shirt from ATL.Madrid , scoring and beating almost every opponent in 2012-2014 era. The guy was a scoring machine.

Oh for sure all those years ago before going to England he was top and rated, kinda of why City bought him and damn did he deliver for them. I just always felt that once he was playing there and then especially after the system changed in the second half of his stay there, he kept getting overlooked, but this was also partly because strikers in the modern game were almost less and less important. At least where I live and work, people simply don't talk about him even though he was part of the winning team season after season for what 6? 7? 8?

But let's all agree we are on the same page. He was/is a great guy, and football is poorer without him!

We all know how it works in Premier League and we are seeing more and more games postponed.
La Liga says that if you have 13 or less players available in the squad, the game will get postponed. Real Madrid's first team squad has 25 active players so, even with seven players in quarentine, Ancelotti has more than enough players available for the next game

Covid postponements

Yeah about Aguero, I think he is one of the most underrated modern strikers, outside he probably didn't get as much recognition and I was hoping to see the same magic at Barca but the gods are cruel in football. He is still young, I hope he makes many good memories related to football!

And on another wish, hehe, I hope Sportsbet can reconsider returning to us some of our freebets as I said above I used mine on a special just a few hours before the game, and then it gets postponed last minute. It was like a 2 game special, and one actually already hit, which would have won me 3x ++ on a regular multi.

No one is going to bet on many games if they keep getting postponed.

I wonder how boosts work for Sportsbet when you get voided. I've had actually accas where I won but one or two legs voided, but can't really recall how the final payout worked. Tried searching my history but I guess it must have been some time last season. I'll see if I win this one and then I can confirm how it works if I remember what the non-boosted odds were haha.
Try to contact Steve, as I think it will be much faster than if you or I looked through own betting history to find a similar precedent. But looking ahead, I think the bet will be returned because in the end it is not bonus money (or it will be recalculated taking into account the winning match). Take a look at my ticket ... the initial odds were about 10, but after the canceled match with Watford, the odds dropped to 3, despite the fact that it was a free bet (so I think you won't have any problems recalculating your bet)Wink

I hate it when matches on my ticket get void. It ruins my insurance on x5 multi tickets and butchers the odds on high stake ones. They are only good for my local fiat bookie. They have special boosted odds for one game if you take 6 games multi. If all other games get voided you still get your boosted odds Smiley

Amen to that my friend. I hate losing bets, I hate weird calls, but nothing gets me more frustrated than voided legs and now with all these Covid postponements I'm probably going to stay away from European accas for a while. I made one last one tonight.

take this into consideration when locking your Real madrid pick for the next Matchday

seven covid-19 cases in Real Madrid (incl. Modric and Asensio from the starting 11) https://as.com/futbol/2021/12/16/primera/1639656201_175390.html

it was bound to happen, i mean, it's the holidays, super lax guidelines and protocols, just look at UK and the premier league. ugh, im so sick and tired of this pandemic  Lips sealed
I knew about Modric but did not know that it has already spread so far trough the team. What are the rules to postpone games in La Liga? We all know how it works in Premier League and we are seeing more and more games postponed. I am thinking we will have a covid break in Premier League until Boxing day probably.

now it is a Madrid-Sevilla race, with both cities having two teams in top4
It is not a race, Sevilla and especially Betis are playing some great football but no way they are title contenders. I will be surprised if they finish even above this very weak Barca side. They will hit a rough patch sooner or later and spill a lot of points. That meme with Bolt perfectly captures title race in La Liga, Real can loose this only if they "break the leg" to keep up with metaphor.

to clarify, I did not mean that they are title contenders, Real is already champion, IMO (I wrote that several times already)
it is just to capture that from Madrid/Barcelona, it is now Madrid/Sevilla, with Betis in

and regarding Barca, I do think that Sevilla will end up above Barca (and probably score in Europa league too), and Betis will probably be below Barca, but they are making difference at the moment, and will be interesting to see how much will Barca need to reach them, Sociedad is also there for position 4, but I think that they will finish below Barca and Betis

If Atletico will lose against Sevilla, they gap to Real will be huge already.

Sevilla is actually in a key week for staying in the top, and maybe putting their candidature for second place
first Atletico over the weekend, than Barca on Tuesday, both on their ground, for a big4 member it is a joke to lose both matches, and I really cannot see them winning both (with current rivals form, that should be their target)

with two wins, I would support them for second place in the end (Real is already champion, IMO)

now it is a Madrid-Sevilla race, with both cities having two teams in top4

If we look at the fixture of the next week, it will be Barcelona-Elche match.  Barcelona can easily win.  Sevilla - Atletico Madrid match will be very difficult.  3 points is very important for both teams.  The leader of the league, Real Madrid, will play Cadiz at the Santiago Bernabeu.  Real Madrid will win 3 points and get through this week without any problems.
Real Madrid will certainly get a win there because they are in a very good shape to win that match.
Real Madrid's form this season is really superb and they aren't afraid to beat any team,they  have really showed consistently and that alone will show that they are serious to win.
I bet Madrid win and over 2.5 goals.

Oh man slaman29 I just read about Barca's latest news. Aguero's just confirmed he's retiring from football.

I don't know much about the developments of his transfer but I do recall it was all about him finding a home to retire from football and to play with his good friend Messi... only to arrive at Barcelona when Messi gets pushed out, and then now to hang his boots up not in the way he'd have preferred.

I'll always remember him for THAT Agueroooooo goal. Of course he was a great deal more than that.

That's a sad news for football at large, it's better that the problem was detected early, the last thing we want is to witness another player collapse on the pitch.

It's funny how I had a great anticipation for this season, with the hope of Aguero and Messi, little did I know that I wouldn't get enjoy either of them in Barcelona shirt this season, c'est la vie right ?!

It was so sad to watch his press conference today. Pity that he had to retire much earlier than he wanted, but health is most important thing.
He was key player in Man City last decade and probably one of best players in EPL. Unfortunately he didn't got chance to play with Messi and his career in Barcelona lasted just 5 games. But at least he won Copa America with Messi last summer.

If we look at the fixture of the next week, it will be Barcelona-Elche match.  Barcelona can easily win.  Sevilla - Atletico Madrid match will be very difficult.  3 points is very important for both teams.  The leader of the league, Real Madrid, will play Cadiz at the Santiago Bernabeu.  I think Real Madrid will win 3 points and get through this week without any problems.
Words Barcelona and easy win can't be used in same sentence this season. Elche is close to bottom, but they're not easy team, they lost most of games just by 1 goal.
Real game against Cadiz shouldn't raise any questions.
If Atletico will lose against Sevilla, they gap to Real will be huge already.
