I'm glad I was able to get some points off Betis vs Granada fixture, It seemed as though it would as a draw, and that's actually what the majority from the had went with, more than half of the pool went 1 - 1, which easily could have been the case if not for the later goal from Sergio Canales.


yeah, Granada conceived both goals in the finish, first in first half extra time, and second nearing the match end
yet, my boy debuted on the Granada goal, it was not great, two conceived goals, but keeping in mind that Betis had 19 shots on goal, 9 on target, it was a good performance by Maximiano, and I hope that he will be better in following rounds

but, other match was a disappointing for me, Getafe is obviously ready for relegation this season, they need much more than current form to stay in La Liga

decent start for me in the pool and won my Sunday value bet (with a last minute goal, 90+10')



Osasuna - Valencia live right now...iirc, Valencia to win was @3.8 or something like that...they're 1-0 down, but yeah, valencia as the underdog, you don't see that very often
*edit  Valencia 4-1, bookies messed up big time and i completely missed it. dammit  Smiley

you guys winning any bets or what?

did not expected such a win, but this could be our season (meaning to be into top4, title chase is not an option)
started well, there are no big names in the team, but Valencia is playing solid football, there is no European competition to suck the form, and La Liga is IMO weaker than previous seasons, so it is a chance to be in CL spot fight
it is a question will that fight be for Sevilla spot, or maybe, with all circumstances for Barca spot, since Madrid duo is far better at the moment

Winning my Barca bet when the match plays hehe, but no, I also didn't catch the Valencia upset, but I think more sad that Real Madrid Celta busted the Blackjack, by one point. So close!

Anyway, no real surprises. Somehow Atletico winning in injury time is almost something you expect from them now:)

Sigh, ended up not being too tough for me actually. Was having an exact score on the first game all the way till final minute injury time damn. And then redeemed with 3 points from an exact score on Atletic Bilbao.

Would still have preferred 2 close scores though, those slam points so precious.

Time to get back to football as usual...

I don't tend to fancy the immediate week after any international break, some teams have half or almost all of their full teams playing 2-3 times, while some other teams players are have just had a long break to rest.

Villareal vs Alaves fixture have also been postponed, in addition to Barca vs Sevilla, It's just 8 games to go with for this round, and no match to really forward to for tomorrow.

So Barca got rid of the Griezmann  Grin Time to pop open the champagne.

Griezmann had not been a good fit for Barca. For Barca, his leaving is a blessing from a sporting and financial perspective. But he has moved to one of the league's fiercest rivals and if he returns to his old strength at Atletico, it will be less good for Barca. It would have been better if Griezmann would have moved to a non-La Liga club.

I still didn't check Superbru but my answer what happens if a game gets postponed on Superbru when you locked your prediction is it going to stay locked again when they play the match I another gameweek or it resets and give you another opportunity to choose because if they play a double gameweek and a team still crammed with fixtures they tend to rotate a lot of players and that going to affect the results.

I think that if you lock your pick, you will not be able to change it, even if the match is postponed, and for these, they are already assigned as postponed, so that would not be fair either
not sure why someone lock his pick, I am never doing that
it is good to see what others have predicted, but I am making picks few days before (not on a match day), and mostly do not use information regarding what others picked in my betting practice (to be honest, as far as I am checking, most people just picks favorites to win, so that does not help a lot in the betting process)
Exactly, just don't lock your pics. You gain nothing by it except option to see other people picks. For me it is much more valuable to leave it open to change in case something happens. Let's say covid enters the club and 5 first team players are out, that's gonna make you change your mind for sure.

it is postponed, where there is time usually in Superbru, it said postponed, as well as Villarreal match, that is postponed as well
there is not much to see this weekend, Real is playing home against Celta, could be tough, but win should be certain, and Atletico is playing in Barcelona, with smaller city rival Espanyol, that is still score-less this season, but now have conceived one goal from Mallorca, so I do not expect goals there

from other matches, cannot wait Monday, for Maximiano to hopefully debut on Granada goal, so do not expect goals there as well

Yup I don't see any surprises on this rather quiet weekend, with the big games postponed, but I wonder if Iago Aspas is still fired up, if he finds his way to score again than maybe we have that upset, but then I'm not ready to go against Real especially when my league position is so bad now! I don't think La Liga will even make it to Soccer Blackjack;)

Ah, I didn't even realize Barca-Sevilla was postponed, I saw the pick available in Superbru but was looking for the match in bookmaker odds and couldn't find it. Just realized my old news feed also didn't update.

All my picks entered, I don't know how to pull myself out of the bottom but this time I went with "crowd" consensus.

This postponment will do be of great help to Barcelona, they'll prepare very well against Bayern Munich on Tuesday for the Champions League.
It won't be an easy one, Bayern won't get things as easy as they think.
Hopefully it ends a draw, because I don't see any side taking all three points with themselves.

Unfortunately, international break continues to screw with our games so it has been confirmed that Barca- Sevilla game is postponed due to multiple players from Sevilla playing for Argentina just day and a half before the derby.
can we (la liga only pool participants) still participate in this week's free bet challenge? which game is gonna count for La Liga pool?
Not sure if you are joking  Grin That free bet challenge is for participants of both pools, no matter if they are playing just in one of them. Go enter your prediction. To phrase it differently, if you paid entry to one of my pools you got the right to participate in free bet challenge.

I will try to pick one game from each league every week but when we have great games in one league and shit in the other....I will opt for derby games.

Time to bump the thread a little, don't forget to put your predictions in.

Unfortunately, international break continues to screw with our games so it has been confirmed that Barca- Sevilla game is postponed due to multiple players from Sevilla playing for Argentina just day and a half before the derby.

And that should have been one of the games for our free bet challenge.

On the other hand, Barcelona got rid of Griezmann's high salary, but the strange thing is their contract with Dutchman Luke de Jong - at the request of Ronald Koeman, as the media said - despite the low level of this player and his very weak appearance with Seville in the last season.

I also thought that was very strange. I think in normal times I do enjoy watching Dutch athletes play soccer but I'm still not even fully convinced by the one star we have from Ajax in our team. Koeman is Dutch himself so maybe he thinks he can squeeze out the best from his own country but I also thought this was an unneccessary buy.

Oh and I'm so happy Fati got No. 10.

Atletico madrid, tho...Suarez, Joao felix, Griezmann, Carrasco, Angel Correa..too much firepower! but you just know they're gonna win most of their games 1-0, just Simeone things lol
I am not afraid, only so many attacking positions in the team while Simeone is the coach. Half of them will be expensive bench warmers   Grin

More seriously though, this is confirmation that Atletico is tired of Real/Barca domination and they plan to take few more championships if possible.
The last moments of the transfer window have seen Griezmann returns to Atletico Madrid.
Atletico reinforced their chances to defend their championship they need him because Suarez alone is not enough and Joao Felix hasn't done anything yet, so it was very logical to try to bring Grizzo back to Simone he did not shine greatly except with him, especially since his level with Barca recently was weak, even with the departure of Lionel Messi .
- the argument of some that Griezmann did not appear at his level - and at the same time his exaggerated salary, which amounts to more than 24 million euros. Net, a very, very exaggerated figure set by the previous administration led by Bartomeu.
On the other hand, Barcelona got rid of Griezmann's high salary, but the strange thing is their contract with Dutchman Luke de Jong - at the request of Ronald Koeman, as the media said - despite the low level of this player and his very weak appearance with Seville in the last season.
