I climbed 1 spot! 0-0 draws in La Liga are not usually what anyone picks so most of us disappointed:)

I'm currently in fourth position, because I had a terrible week, I score just 6 points, If only I had done better, I might have move up a bit better, but I slowly losing my knowledge of the league, maybe it's high time I start watch their matches again because asides Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, I really don't watch any other matches from the league with occasional exception if we have fixtures like Athletic Bilbao playing teams like Sevilla or Villarreal.

I know 4th position might not be so bad, but If I don't keep up the pace, I'll surely drop only further down the pecking order.

I scored 7.5 points in this round, haha, we are close (including in the final standings - I am in 2nd place). There are good days, there are bad days, that's okay. There is a long distance ahead and sooner or later there will be a good result with forecasts "at random". For example, I don't have much time for analysis right now and I make simple predictions, but the last round in the Serie A pool was unusually good for me.

Damn, can't believe it's already semifinals for Supercopa, my brain is somehow still lagging and thinking we are actually less than halfway thru the season.

Well, actually first half of season didn't ended yet, now there is just 16 rounds played. In recent seasons Supercopa is played in January, since they signed contract with Saudi Arabia. Previously Supercopa used to be season opener.

Yeah in recent seasons January is midway through the league already, at least I seem to remember that, I know the World Cup just pushed back some things I'm just still somehow really really lagging in catching up with football and other sports. Feels like I miss football when it's gone, but when it's back I feel so tired lol.

Yeah, lost Real Madrid but upped my ante on Barca, and it paid off pretty well. Was almost tempted to go on half time win too, but was afraid of a late winner, in the end, covered losses and ended up with as good a game as any. Funny thing: boosted odds live around 10th min (when I placed it) was 2.43 but in Betbuilder pre-match, I needed to pair Barca win plus over 4.5 booking points to get the same odds. Match gave a lot more than that of course but only after 87th min!

I had my pick on Barcelona to win, but I wasn't going to have any money on the line, that decision was solely based of on the fact that Lewandowski was supposed to miss the game due to his suspension for the red card he got before the world cup, I was very much surprised that he played the first Barca game of the year and while there is suppose to be a suspension in effective, but from what I learnt, it was said that Barcelona appealed for the suspension and pending the verdict he was allowed to play, not sure how true that is, however knowing the repercussion that comes with fielding an ineligible player in La Liga, so I don't presume Barcelona would have take such a chance.

regarding Super Cup, another chance for Valencia to disappoint me further

I don't know why it's stuck in my head that Valencia have good h2h record with Real, but actually, last they they won was in 2020. But it's one game and everything is possible. As Barcelona fan I would have preferred to have Valencia rather than Betis, but to win trophy, you have to beat everyone.

and only Roma comeback against Milan ruined my perfect Sunday.

what about Milan Roma, 11 yellow cards, didn't watch it, but looks as UFC to me

Barca won important match against Atletico, and back to +3 in La Liga, and within our pool nobody pushed for Atletico win, which does not find me surprised

one more today, Bilbao against Osasuna

An expensive victory to savor for sure, but it was always going to be plenty of suspension threats if you visit Atletico so I don't think anyone will be too upset. Dembele saved the day, and we have a tiny breathing space!

I'm not sure I was watching UFC or Atletico - Barcelona. And that wrestling between Savic and Torres in the end Shocked

Well, when you watch Atletico - Barca, you have to expect something similar. And that moment when Atletico played better, but we finally won at Metropolitano. That Araujo save from goal line let us to take 3 points. Now there is fight for 1st trophy this season - Supercopa semifinals midweek.
In general, good weekend for me. Made profit from all 4 La Liga games today and only Roma comeback against Milan ruined my perfect Sunday.

Monaco are ok for me too, they rarely have odds below 15/10 or 2/1 because of their perceived weakness, domestic and EUFA, and as Trofo says they win more than lose, which is great for double winnings.

Never fall for the shit odds on cup game favourites. Copa del rey, league cup, coppa, they are all completely skewed because of bookie margins with obvious heavy bets on favs.

I am one to talk of course, threw away money on Liverpool last night.

Barca has good odds tonight though, it is a very easy bet for me. I know they drew a shocker last time but they should have won that 5-0.

I just hate Valencia, they are on my blacklist but there simply weren't enough games yesterday so I gave them another chance since the stake wasn't that big anyway. Never again, watched second half and that is a team I am not trusting in the near future. They always find a way to screw my tickets. There is couple of clubs like that out there and I must admit I am much happier when I skip their games, both when betting or choosing what to watch.

Just so damn useless that team but wait, didn't we agree all of us that Valencia and Sevilla long ago entered our blacklist? I also made the same mistake early in the season, making both teams in my bets.

Yesterday also made terrible terrible picks in French cup games to mix with my Spanish games and almost everything went from worse to even worse. Monaco. Never trust them also.

Of course we did, but that day had very little games to offer so I had to take them. Monaco is ok for me, winning way more on their games then loosing. But I am never playing Cup games on favorites, they are notorious for the surprises that happen. Small teams look at those games like highlight of the season while most top clubs look at them like necessary evil where they will let their youngsters stretch the legs and get some experience.

I just hate Valencia

I have two rules regarding clubs that I eventually support, and in Valencia case it is as:
1. rule no.1 never bet on Valencia
2. if you want to bet on Valencia, revisit rule no.1

joking aside, feel bad for your parlay, Valencia season was started as light grey, and now slide to border between dark grey and black

I'm only one in our pool who decided to go against Real win today. But I wasn't so optimistic about Villarreal and didn't expected that they can win against Real. But later games had good outcomes for me. Late goals of Mallorca and Girona saved my predictions.
Big game between Atletico and Barcelona on Sunday. Your thoughts about it?
Man, I miss @tomahawk9 and his banters in this thread... I hope that he is ok, but I'm worried for him after how he strangely disappeared in the middle of World Cup without any sign.

Don't know how I missed Valencia game in betting, but that's good thing for me, it saved me some money. Well, loss against Cadiz is the most classic way to describe current state of Valencia in few recent years.

I was also thinking that Valencia would defeat Cadiz home. However things didn't go the expected way. Valencia are showing a terrible performance this year already. By the way, Real Madrid's losing to Villarreal can be counted as a surprise. However it has been a bigger surprise for me to see that there was nobody going for the home team win in the pool including me.

Wow I did not even realize Real Madrid would be over 2x today. Yes it is Villareal and yes it is an away game but nobody will bet on the home team at such low odds except for their own fans.

I was put to shame on Barca recently, so I am putting down some bigger bet than usual on the team I would love to lose. Lets see how we go this time!

Villarreal is a good team and I don't think Real will have it easy today. I was contemplating between draw and Real win and decided to back Real for now, but maybe I will change it again later.

Much easier to place a bet on this one, both to score should be good play and odds are ok.

Both teams to score came under the oddest of circumstances, and in quick succession to but after Benzema drawing level for Real Madrid from the spot, I thought it was going to be on Real Madrid's huge come back stories, but I guess it wasn't meant to be after all, but it was well deserved because they indeed created enough chances to have merited their victory.

It is such an advantage for Barcelona, because now they can afford to play draw against Atletico Madrid, since the matchup was supposed to be an advantage for Real Madrid before the game week.

Gotta hand it to myself.

Still could not manage to reach home on time (RIP my weekend) to properly look at bets, but used Telegram on another phone and managed to sneak in a live bet on Real... and then of course they let in a goal right after HT. Benzema penalty this time couldn't spark their comeback and they lost -- probably deservedly.

Barcelona given a lifeline once more, back to you, Xavi.
