anyway, Atletico need to bounce back after that loss against Liverpool, Sociedad are missing a lot of players today cos of injuries, i think 1.7 looked good enough for a single ticket

it is a value odd for home win, Atletico is a favorite, despite Sociedad form, and now obvious CL qualification fight with Barca, so their motivation is through the roof, I am sure

regarding El Clasico, I would argue that it was a routine win for Real, and those two late goals brought me exact score in the pool, but burned my ticket for under goals

did you enjoy the game? I think it was a borefest, happy for the 3 points tho, but that was the least threatening Barca i've seen in a long time, but still, I think they looked a lot better with Coutinho on the pitch and then Aguero in the last few minutes. Those two players in much better form with more game time + Pedri on the midfield will provide a lot of impact and positive results for Barcelona this season

It wasn't most exciting El Clasico ever, but for me it seems that in recent years almost all games between these teams don't looks similar. It's pity that we had chance to make score 1:1, but got 2:0 on next attack. Agree about Coutinho and Aguero. But it's question about Aguero, how much time he is capable to play.
Atletico - Sociedad sounds interesting. So far Sociedad looking very solid, but Atleti should win tonight.

P.S. when was the last time you remember Sevilla scoring 5 goals??? Cause I can't!

Really did not expect this one to be high scoring game. I had it pegged like 1:0, or 2:0 win for Sevilla since they are usually very good at the back. 5:3 sounds totally unbelievable to me, now I am sad that I did not watch the game. There is so many good games today so I had to pick the ones to watch and settled on Barca-Real and United-Liverpool, more than that and my wife would leave me or kill me, depending on the mood

Barca for me today too, and that does sound like a silly bet given the much publicised problems and Real having Benzema on his finest form ever.

But I like betting against streaks and I lost the last three with Messi... if Barca's old guard aren't incentivised to perform, or their youngsters to win their first major Clasico, then this will be the last I bet for a long time.

Sadly, today might just turn out to be another loss Embarrassed

unless Koeman is able to get in a good selection. It seems as if he is mentally defeated. It would be a miracle if Barca can manage to get a draw. I hope and pray that he doesn't lead Barca to relegation.

So, guys, what are your thoughts before El Clasico? Despite everything, I'm backing Barca tonight. I had just realized that with our poor performance and 8th place, we are just 2 points behind Real, they also don't look perfect this season.
Bookmakers also don't have clear favorite today. My common sense says to put draw, but I can't resist from baking Barca.

I would be going with Barcelona too, even though I'm not so sure about the expected performance, and I wouldn't be placing any bet on the match either.

Real Madrid aren't perfect too, but with Benzema in his terrific form, I'd hope Koeman has a plan on how to contain him, or at least make him less effective for the team.

had belief in Maximiano that Granada will put a point last night, and it paid off
hopefully, they will look better and better, and finish season in the middle of the table

regarding El Clasico, Real is currently better, and I will go with them in the pool, but would not bet on them, eventually under2.5 goals
there is time to change my mind, but that usually only brings missing outs

Yeah and from what I read Granada should have won against 10 men in the end, but they did ruin my ticket for 12/1 (which I would have preferred to the 9/1 that I eventually won as needed a goal in second half.

One of my favourite teams in seasons past, but not sure where they're headed this time. I do want them to remain in La Liga comfortable.

Real's gotta be the clear favourite here but I'm still holding out for a home win.

man, every time i take look at the pool leaderboard and see that i'm 18 pts behind 1st place after just 10 rounds, my faces looks like this Sad

anyway, who's gonna win El Clasico, guys? everyone's putting pressure on Ancelotti and the boys by saying that Madrid are the main favorites and they should win comfortably next sunday cos Barca were shite against Dynamo in the CL...bookmakers don't seem to cover about the outside noise, they have Barca ml x2.7 odds - madrid ML x2.4 🤔

Same I hate playing draws and even predicting draws feels wrong in these pools but as I have no choice but to play Barca I bet on them to win. At least the odds was not 3x like the last El Clasico so it shows the bookies are also not as confident in Real as they are not in us lol

And guys, reminder to play the Prediction game: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sportsbetio-la-liga-and-serie-a-free-bet-challange-5354144 let's remind people of this additional prize so we can make this thread even more popular next season!

Thanks for the reminder, went right away to put my picks in and saw that most of the predictions already taken so I'm hoping for a "shock" Roma win... god knows Mourinho needs it. Tammy brace to blow Napoli away, and one of them to come in the 10th minute.

But what about the result last night huh guys? Spezia took a last goal and gave me a nice exact score. So tight in this smaller pool haha.

Whoops I posted this in the wrong thread -- apologies, but since we're mostly the same people in both La Liga/Serie A it's okay forgive me right?

I have put 1:1 in the pool for now. It smells like a draw for me, yes Barca has problems but they are playing at home which was always a nice advantage for them. Most importantly I feel like both clubs would be happy with a draw and would not try to push the issue. 1 point at Barca home ground is good result for any team and Barca will be happy if they do not lose.

Even better that is the market that pays best so I'll probably put some money on draw as well. Only problem is that I don't like playing draws since it ruins my match watching experience. You can't cheer for somebody to score the first goal

Patience, we can beat Kiev, and then Real Madrid coming, but always one step at a time.

Barca has some of the best young talents at the moment: Fati, Pedri and Gavi are all top class and very young. Barca just needs to get their finances in order and let those kids develop further. This could be a tough year but realistically CL qualification spot at the end of season would be acceptable result.

Next season all those kids will be one year older, more experienced and hopefully even better. Than it is time to start competing for trophies once again.

Yes and as I said before the best Spanish spine at the moment. I know it's not always important to club football that you also have domestic players but it feels very nice to see that the Spain team also has a lot of Barca running in its blood. Which still means we are doing something right. Unlike Real who sometimes play almost with no Spanish player on the field.

4th spot for me is absolutely fine this season. It would even be an achievement considering many things.

Not an easy game for Barca, but probably it we won't havemany easy games this season. But I think our win is well deserved. Fati still not ready to play 90 minutes, but he already gives a lot for Barca. Finally, debut of Aguero, though, he played just for few minutes
Now we are moving to very important Champions League game and El Clasico next Sunday.

We need to protect that kid with our lives, not to mention upcoming Spanish stars in our B team. I think on the basis of performance even at this recovery stage he gives us something to really shout for, but we just need to remember he is still a kid after all, and already the shirt number is a huge pressure that he shows such maturity to overcome.

Heh yeah, Liverpool played without their Samba (but kept the one that got the hattrick) and we played better than expected. Hope the delay bites them back in the ass =p

Anyway, surprised my draw actually got it nice. Actually did think 0-0 for Getafe but I mistakenly thought the break might give people some motivation to score.

Sociedad saved us all since no one went for even a draw.

And then Rayo, hmm rdbase! 3-3? That's faith haha!

It's really understand able for Real Madrid, having a number of players in the qualifiers at least two regular starters, but I'm not sure why some other league wouldn't accept such requests, PSG are having a match in about 30 minutes meanwhile 5 of their first team players are missing due to the same South American qualifiers, how fair ?

i'm gonna go out on a limb and say that no other team requested their game to be postponed. La Liga knew Madrid and Atletico's request was fair and agreed, as they should, since the players came back from 12-hour flight less than 2 days ago

Quote from: LTU_btc on October 15, 2021, 03:55:44 PM

But I don't understand why South America nqualifiers window ends so late. Brazil or Argentina played on Thursday and less than after 24 hours PSG have league game. It just doesn't makes sense.

south america qualifiers had more fixtures during the break (each NT played 3 games) than the european qualifiers (just two fixtures)
