La liga is back tonight, but, tomorrow, Villareal - Barcelona...historically, villareal has been a relatively easy peasy game for Barca,, fun fact: last time the yellow submarine beat Barca in the league was in 2008 👀

This thing sounds unbeleavable, but yeah it's true. I wouldn't say that Villarreal is easy peasy for us, especially at El Madrigal, but somehow Barca managed not to lose against them for so long. And today's score 3:1 looks quite easy on paper, but it's not, considering that Villarreal made score 1:1 15 minutes until end of game. In Messi era probably it wouldn't be big deal, but for current Barca winning such game is big achievement.
Still, I'm a bit surprised that referee didn't gave penalty when Pique touched ball with hand.

@buwaytress, I already watch way too much football, so, following Segunda would be an overkill for me. I turn it on and makesome bets only when fight for spots in La Liga begins.

Trofo getting some good leads on the first 3 games. I made these picks quite early but now looking at them I don't really know why I didn't pick a draw for Valencia when they're quite good at doing that at home... still not so bad as Celta are in an acca I got.

And more bleh draws ruining me all over this weekend.

i tend to avoid betting on events/leagues that i'm not familiar with, Segunda division falls in that category (i know the teams but i don't follow the league regularly), but, i get what you mean by good value, i suppose yo-yo clubs like Norwich or Espanyol could be great for these kind of bets

Norwich in Championship for sure 100%, but never in premier league (unless it's 25/1 like it was against City 2 seasons ago, I still have great memories of that heh).

But exactly. They're so shit, but because of their status, the bookies don't rate them, and then when they DO relegate, they're too good to stay down but bookies forget they're that good and keep giving them good value bets, especially away from home Wink

Thanks for every work you do Trofo

And great work on picking the granada draw. I lost early bet already by being stupid and picking home team so now have to bet even more lol

yeah, draw from Granada was not expected, but two goals from Granada in the first half were almost enough for a win
but, my boy, Maximiano scored goal to himself, and brought his team down, he was sliding back to goal line, and brought the ball with him, more bad luck than stupid move, but own goal is never easy to swallow

[/quote]This is probably the main reason why I bet on Villarreal. Villarreal knows how to restrain opponents, and a draw is the most likely for this match, but still I think that Xavi has not yet managed to correct the situation in such a short time, because there is still much more talk than effect.

Lucky you, so many free bets you don't even know where are they coming from

I also got a couple of free bets, although I won nothing on the forum. I believe that such generosity is associated with Black Friday or with the fact that free bets were received by those who did not manage to activate the drop within an hour. Cry

Why is nobody complaining that I have not graded last week challenge and put up new one? I was sure I have done it and forgot all about it later on. It seems nobody here needs free bets

Anyway, I'll take care of it now and use only Sunday matches to give you all a bit more time to enter your predictions. Sorry.
New challenge should be up in couple of minutes.

OK I will do my best to complain but you know maybe that in gambling world if you are patient the casinos treat you nicer than the ones who don't.

Besides I have spent a lot of freebets chasing zeroes now especially as the last ones were won just before international break where I am betting based purely on odds. So now I think if I win something during those breaks I don't mind waiting for club action to restart, maybe that was the thinking behind the winners being patient? :p

Thanks for every work you do Trofo

maybe they thought you were busy so they didn't wanna bother you with a bunch of pm's in your inbox (: personally, i got a couple of freebets this week and i thought one of em was from the weekly challenge which is why i didn't check the thread in 'games and rounds'

Lucky you, so many free bets you don't even know where are they coming from

If you see me lagging with challenge just write a post in any of the threads, I am keeping an eye on them all the time.

Some great matches this week across all leagues. Will be easier to bear out crappy whether here.

sunday matches, eh? the big one is gonna be Real madrid - Sevilla...sounds like a no brainer for the challenge, no?

La liga is back tonight, but, tomorrow, Villareal - Barcelona...historically, villareal has been a relatively easy peasy game for Barca,, fun fact: last time the yellow submarine beat Barca in the league was in 2008 👀

Real should win easily on Sunday, in the pool there are two Real matches for this week, another on Wednesday, both home wins

regarding Barca, having them @2.7 with Villareal is really something, Villareal lost in CL, and will be interesting to see can they beat tradition on Saturday

what about Bilbao and Granada tonight, my favorite keeper will try to save the team in Baskia, probably not enough to avoid loss

anyhow, Rayo vallecano - Mallorca about to start, sounds like the perfect game to have as background noise lol if Rayo wins, they'll move 3 points ahead of Barcelona...i'm sending all the positive energy i can to the madrid team Grin

Rayo trashed Mallorca, but conceived one goal in last minutes
they have solid team, have beaten Barca at home, so it is not unexpected to be above Barca on the table (joking, of course)

Sevilla is this round loser, with their draw with Alaves, Sociedad draw with Valencia was unexpected, but it is a bit less surprise than Sevilla

Anyone else like to follow bets on relegated teams in Europe leagues? I always feel like there is good value sometimes if the core team remains the same.

I know it's Segunder (or whatever they call the second league in Spain) but did anyone catch the Real Zaragoza and Girona special at almost 8/1?

I have this weird attraction to Segunder bets, and that's because I used to follow Deportivo until they got relegated even to 3rd or lower tier now. Anyone else like to follow bets on relegated teams in Europe leagues? I always feel like there is good value sometimes if the core team remains the same.

I did have Betis on my multibet I also thought this was a sure thing but unfortunately the one that didn't hit was the final game. 0-0 are the worst scores ever, to me, no goals, no nothing, and you don't even get false hopes, lol. I think this is the score that bookies win the most unless you're that Brazilian guy who likes to bet on nil-nil scorelines!

Just one more game left but too late for me at 15th position to do anything lol

I don't know why odds for Betis win against Elche was so high - 2.40, but for me it looked like easy money lying on the street and I couldn't miss chance to take it.
Real Sociedad - Valencia 0:0 with 15 minutes remaining. C'mon, where are goals?

about Aguero... apparently it was fake news. Many journos from catalunya and the rest of spain are saying that the news are completely fake, the club won't have any press conferences about it and every party involved in aguero's situation (club, doctors and the player himself) will wait a big longer before drawing any conclusions about his future as a player

Good to hear that. When I saw these news on Fabrizio Romano twitter I was already sure that's real thing.

While we are on subject on injuries I just read that Aguero has to retire due to heart problems. It has been reported on multiple portals, but Eurosport also reported that Barcelona denied that news. I hope he will be fine and play few more big games before finishing great career.

Can't agree more and also hope it's fake. I always diss Man City and others but players I always hold the highest admiration for, and I kind of feel like Aguero never really got the love and fan worship I thought he should have won with THAT league-winning last-minute goal (still probably in my memory the best example of English drama in the game). I mean, even Divock Origi has his own song and chant at Anfield, every game but I hardly heard it from City. It would be really sad if he has to retire because of this, especially since I actually wanted to see him and Messi together kicking it up in La Liga (which I hope is somehow still possible in a couple of years).

It seems that there has been some positive changes already and a bit of luck in the end can't hurt.

good sensations in the first half with high press and that was it, 2nd half was the same old barca cos the team was very poor in the back and lack of goals still present. If espanyol managed to have so many clear chances last night, imagine a top side. We saw some glimpses of the new barca, but it's far from being a real improvement from the past managers, but it was the xavi's first game, so...

Very difficult win for Barcelona, we must be very lucky that Espanyol failed to score somehow, they had so many great chances in the end. But win is win, we get 3 pts and Xvi debut will be marked with victory in the history. But before next week's crucial Champions league game with Benfica Xvi can't be happy about performance.

I couldn't agree more with you that Espanyol literally deserved more from the match, the hit the woodwork a number of times. However, I tend to look at how the team played, they played much better in when in possession and during attack, the sloppiness in defense cannot be excused, but I tend to be on the side that it's still work in progress.

Wanted to watch the game but ended up watching Zverev vs. Djokovic. It seems that there has been some positive changes already and a bit of luck in the end can't hurt. I see Xavi gave a chance to some youngsters but since there is so many injuries at the moment that does not mean much. Except for Luuk De Jong, he is obviously not in any contention with new manger and should leave in January to play somewhere.
