I expected @buwaytress to cash in on at least one of those surprises

Me too! He picked a few Real Madrid upsets last season, so surprised he didn't get any of last night's right:) I actually picked 1-1 on the Cadiz game but shocking to see only 1 attempt from Real vs 8 from Cadiz!

But of course Barca must slip when Real slips, scratching my head with them but to be fair, Getafe's a tough nut:)

Still in 2nd place

Damn it. Of all the upsets I did not even consider tonight, Cadiz beats Real Madrid? Grumble grumble. Not having a good night in any of the big leagues tonight. Some parlays still alive, but that will require Barca to take full advantage of Real's slip up and smash a few good goals in. What a night so far.

What a day in Spain, both Real and Barca not just dropping points but losing their games. Sevilla also losing their game to make a perfect day for underdogs. There is 4 of us in the pool with 0 points today so that just shows how unexpected these results were. Bookies have made a fortune tonight for sure but I somehow managed to avoid all those bloopers and even end the day in small profit.

insane, but congrats to Cadiz, I have 0 points earned so far in this round, and have 0:2 for Barcelona, but, let's see what is Getafe capable of :-D

I don't know if I will be betting on this Atletico match but if I do only options are under and draw. Everything else is just loosing money when Atletico is in the picture.

I am 100% sure I will not watch the match. No more losing my time on them, at least until they play Real, Barca or somebody watchable in Champions League.

I don't like to play Under scored goals, but
Celta has a very hard time scoring goals at the start of this season, and there were no scored goals for Atletico the last two matches
The four previous duels of these rivals were ineffective as well Roll Eyes

I didn't even analyze this match and only bet Over 1.5 @ 1.45 and I'm lucky this time, at least Atletico were able to score his second goal in the final minute. The next game I bet Real Madrid -1.5 @ 1.80 but for Barcelona, I only bet Over 1.5 @ 1.30, maybe that would be a safe bet. Btw, I'm just predicting based on feeling without looking at H2H or anything else in the bet this time. Good luck all!

Anyone dare to bet for Atletico to lose this time? Maybe they actually need to LOSE first before they change their strategy because they are still stubborn to believe they can defend and then hit back on the counter. Good strategy for KO competitions but sucky in the league I personally feel.

Betting for an Under 2.5 score for the Atlético Madrid match makes much sense than full time result Cheesy

I don't know where everything seems to have gone wrong for them at the moment. With the Arrival of Luis Suarez, I expected them to be a free scoring team but that doesn't seem to be the case lately.

Yeah, fair enough, especially since the odds are all the same around 2/1 for under 2.5 and around the same for Atleti to win. At least if we still get a 1-1 draw you win that one, but you never know these games. Suarez is a serial scorer and once he gets his blood running he could knock in a few and assist a few. Maybe this season that is their game, score a lot, draw a lot.

Anyway, 0-1 now at HT so both bets look good. Atletico defending as usual;)

Well, Celta De Vigo although vulnerable away from home is one of the toughest team to beat at home. But this season, the team hasn't found the rhythm yet and also lost one of its best performing player of the last season, Rafinha. Atletico was irritating to watch in last two games but this time surely has a chance. Steve picked Atletico in his Steve's Magic selections, I am also going for 1-2 in favor of Atleti. Carrasco was on fire in Nations League, can be instrumental in tonight's game.

But the trickiest game of the matchday is Getafe vs Barcelona. Koeman is not gonna play Messi and few other vital players in the starting lineup due to fatigue (that game vs Bolivia at the height of 3.6K meters was insane!). So youngster like Trincao and Dest will have chance to play for full 90 minutes. But Getafe is deadly on counter-attacks, you make a mistake and they will throw ball into your nets in just 5-6 passes. Cucurella at Left Back is majestic to watch! It would be tough day for Lenglet and Pique to stop the counter-attacks and let see if Messi has to come on the pitch in second half or not.

it is not good just for KO, it could be good against better teams, but that strategy against teams that are lower class is real a difficult one to accept, i do not get how you can think of that strategy playing with Osasuna or Cadiz, that would be pleased with a point from that match, in match like that one, no one would attack

Next match on 17th October they play home against Cádiz. If look at statistic three out of five last matches Real won at home while Cádiz won 3 of 5 when played away. Can Cádiz stand up Real? I bet on Real but I feel like the match will tickle my nerves.

it's a Real to win for me, my pool pick will probably be 2:0 or 3:1

and Celta de Vigo vs. Atletico Madrid? the last two matches was a draw, we can see a 0:0/1:1 again on Saturday here

You are currently topping the chart and you'll be there for at least almost 2 weeks since there are league matches for the coming week.

I'm still performing woefully with my picks currently 10/13 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Out of 10 matches this game week, I only got 2 right, 1 exact score and 1 close result. Honestly, I still don't know how I am even topping the table. Maybe there is some magic at play here Cheesy

OP updated with prize structures and some technicalities
We are still missing favorite clubs from some of the participants so you can come out and confess your undying love for the club if you want it

@casperBGD Valencia?, @hahay, @logfiles

My favourite of all time since childhood... Real Madrid A.K.A Los Blancos

Just checked out the pool table, and I am a little surprised to have climbed to the second place. I felt as though I have performed poorly in Game Week 4

Real Madrid finally won comfortably, and damn we drew to Sevilla but it was a good result nevertheless I would say.

If that win yesterday is marked as comfortable win for Real than Real really lowered the expectations from their supporters. They managed to win against Levante 2:0 but second goal came in 95th minute so the game was very open before that. And I can see that Levante had almost the same number of shots at goal as Real. Did not watch the game so maybe the feel was different but I am expecting from top clubs to have 2 or 3 goal leads before 60 minute.

I guess he was talking about the context of Real always winning by a single goal margin, and relying on the endless penalty - Ramos - converted scenario. It's like they carried on in the same fashion from last season it seems but you're right, at least for me in La Liga, you're expecting top teams to win by 2 goals early. A different context in EPL though I'd say, every game seems like a tough nut even for a top team. *Cough United and Liverpool losing by 5 goals*

@Trofo @slaman29

Yup. I spent my mistake on the Huesca game, glad I just totally avoided them again (though I got to say now, the odds would be super good value on their next game). Unless there is any indication they'll play differently, I think the good money's to bet on their opponent with a small handicap. Or draw no bets. Awful, awful football.

12/13 so far in this league. I suck hard.

That's fine buddy;) You do far better than me in EPL and this is the second season in a row I am in the bottom 20% of that pool. I never considered myself very good at football anyway but 2/13 this early in the season doesn't mean anything I've seen how Superbru can swing a lot especially now in Covid season anything can happen!

Well done big daddy!

Slava Ukraini!

I also didn't watched Atletico game yesterday, didn't bet on it too. Yes, it's Atletico, but I still can't understand how team with forwards like Suarez, Costa and Felix can't score in 180 minutes.
Terrible round for me, just 1.5 so far, but now I get exact score in Cadiz - Granada game. Can't wait for Barca - Sevilla game. Don't know about others, but I feel confident about our win tonight.
