Very tight at the top of the table in battle for yellow cap this week, please forget to put your picks tomorrow that is my only chance to get something back from this pool Grin

Congrats on the yellow cap! Wink

It turned out almost the way you wanted. Aidu's goal in the 89th minute allowed you to be ahead by 3 points at once against all those who were on a par until the very last match. Quite unexpectedly that only you guessed to predict the score 1-1 in this game (apparently, this score is the most popular among bookmakers, based on the odds they offer).

Ha my first one in I don't know how long in the pools I am running, this is going to the spreadsheet immediately since I am actually keeping scores of how much I spent on the pools and how much I got from them. That way I hope to prove that even mediocre performance with entries in multiple pools almost has to work out a net positive for the player.

Now it is time to enter picks and get Yellow Cap in Champions League as well.

Interesting news that Unai Emery leaves Villarreal and joins Aston Villa. It's bad news for submarines and interesting who will become their next coach.
BTW, where is my well deserved wooden spoon? I'm keep falling and this round I'm in good company in the bottom with @icopress and @tomahawk9. And who is @FmbetBru?

Quote from: tomahawk9 on October 24, 2022, 07:35:29 AM

Did you guys notice that Superbru doesn't have round 13 and round 14 available? is it just me or what?

Yeah, I also don't see it. I would predict that it's related with World Cup break, but 13 and 14 rounds will be played before it. In other leagues all 38 rounds is available, maybe they will upload further La Liga rounds too later.

I cant belive this Barcelona its again going to play the Europa League.

Lewandowsky its playing exceptional, in some plays i think even better than before in the Bayern Munich. He is mading some "golazos" every game.

For anyone who play soccer knows that, how he turns and shoot and make the defender pass away in only one movement its really impresive.

This Barca side looks incredible when everything clicks into the place, they are playing free flowing football and scoring almost at will. But there is also other side to this Barca and that is defensive fragility and no real way to turn the game back to their side after falling behind. We have seen that best in CL, Barca is good and making chances, very unlucky not to score and then opponents punish them and Barca disappears from he pitch.

This Barca side has a lot of potential but they are still not ready for competition like CL, maybe EL is more in their range.

That's the fact I've actually been trying to emphasize since the beginning of this season, there's definitely room for improvements in certain areas of the team, but they're a beautiful team in progress, I know they're a lot expectations and the results haven't entirely gone in Barca's favor in certain instances.

Getting eliminated early in the UCL was just them being unlucky, because both matches they lost, they should have gotten a point or more from either them and didn't play awfully too, but the team still lack a bit chemistry and the new guys at the heart of defense are struggling with fitness and knocks, but everything in attack and midfield are doing literally quite alright.

Maybe I don't know how to use the site (lol) but I can't get access now even to the 12th round. By the way, why do you need 13 and 14 rounds? Do you make predictions that far?

the leaderboard kind of resembles La Liga league table with two clear favorites at the top and then the rest of the contenders far far behind

Although I am one of the favorites, this is a very small advantage to be happy about. In the Premier League pool a couple of rounds ago there was a much more pronounced leader, and now he is in about 7th place. Everything is changing very quickly.

That's actually a really good tactic come to think of it. Might even apply it to Premier League with... Spurs? Got so mad watching them play last night until I recalled they're maybe also just trying to lower expectations so fans are actually happy when they qualify for Europa.

Heh, to me Sevilla are the Spurs of La Liga; great team, great players, but shits the bed in the local league, so you might be onto something Cheesy

Sergi Roberto, who had solid match tonight, it seems that he got serious injury.

Yep, out for 1 month. Not what the fans wanted to hear right before the CL game vs Bayern

Did anyone wtched Villarreal - Levante game? If you watched, you had to see interesting moment. Alex Baena were sent of after scoring a goal, it was his second yellow card. He taken of shirt to show message dedicated to club vice president, who passed away. But he didn't even took off shirt fully:

HT and Barcelona already won the match. 3-0 in the span of 10 minutes. Man, Bilbao actually piss and shit their pants in fear when they enter the Camp nou, eh? It's unreal Lips sealed

It's almost same match like against Villarreal, it's a bit strange to beat decent teams so easy. With Barca it doesn't happens that often that they let you to watch 2nd half relaxed. But everything simply can't go well. Sergi Roberto, who had solid match tonight, it seems that he got serious injury.

Agree it was a bit too much for Baena sending off, sometimes you have to understand emotion in football. It's like Neymar getting cards for his celebration, I don't really like him but it's football culture, why need to card guys just showing their love for football?

And Barca yes, strange to see them relax in 2nd half, but I hope they bring their A game to Champions League. We're playing in Europa for sure but I would still like us to go out with a bang!

Dang. I thought it was risky to ask Barca to score 3 goals, and then they do it all in the first half for the second consecutive game. Still always feel it's weird to predict high scoring games but only get 1 point same as guys who pick 1-0.

Yeah, this turned much easier for Barca then anticipated. Bilbao has been playing in good form this season but they pull down their pants and bend over when visiting Camp Nou.

A lot of "derby matches" this week and all of them went on the side of favorites quite easy. No matter that Real missed Benzema, or that Atletico played against very good Betis side. Everyone collected the points and continued the title race.

regarding Sevilla, maybe four goals more than expected, but final score and Real win couldn't be more reasonable and expected

Never too late to learn the lesson the rest of us already have haha, but yeah, I don't feel too bad about losing Sevilla bet, was one I'd keep on putting as long as the odds are right, exact score in pool is good for me, climbing up to Top 7 after 11 games finally.

Griezmann double, points in the bag, and a close score, that's fine. I was taking a lot of time over this one -- 1-0, 2-0 and finally settled for good old boring 2-1, thinking Betis would take advantage of suspect Atletico defending these days. To be fair, they had thrice the number of attempts, so it was a fair prediction, and Nabil Fekir popped up to give it to me.

Alex Moreno almost got Trofo the 2-2 pick he made though in 3rd min injury time!

Been a long, long time since I got 2 exact picks in a row, Bologna gave me one just before this in Serie A, hope this is me recovering in Superbru.

.

third match in a row, where we scored lead through Cavani, and conceived late goals, only difference is that we lost now, after two draws, nevertheless, still hoping for EL or ECL next season

Yeah Bilbao gave Barcelona a run for their money in the last few seasons when Messi was still in the team, but, if you think Sevilla's winless record at the Bernabeu is bad, well, let me tell you that Bilbao's winless record at the Camp Nou is much worse Cheesy

20 years without winning away vs barca lol

Really? That's actually incredible, considering that Athletic isn't bad team after all. They're different beast at San Mames, but fact that they haven't won at Camp Nou for 20 years sounds incredible for me. All series comes to the end sooner or later, but maybe not this time.

I was never even aware that such a record exist, Athletic Bilbao have always been a hard nut for Barcelona at San Mames and have won against Barcelona at some cup competition, but I can't believe they've never managed to win at the Camp Nou, I also do hope tonight will not be different as well, Athletic Bilbao have not been doing very badly too, so they sure should put on some fight and we can get an eventful fixture.

Now way I would put any bet on Sevilla, they can't win much easier games then this one. And that is also true when they are in good form and currently they are far from that.

Things weren't going that bad for Sevilla gainst Real, but after all, they got defeated again. Anyway, I expect that under Sampaoli they will start to show better results eventually and maybe even fight for spots in UEFA Cups. I have no idea why I predicted 3:0 Real win, but after all, that was quite close call Cheesy

Meanwhile Valencia at home lost to Mallorca. Nobody in our pool didn't predicted such outcome. It's good for me that I already added Valencia to my blacklist of betting Cheesy

Sevilla have gone 13 seasons in a row without grabbing the 3 points at the Bernabeu, and they were at their peak in some of those seasons. 10/1 seems about right. Personally I think RM are gonna smash

Now way I would put any bet on Sevilla, they can't win much easier games then this one. And that is also true when they are in good form and currently they are far from that.

Yeah, I'm expecting nothing less than a Real smash, given just how poor Sevilla are this season, this team is ragged and out of ideas, but still, you know, it's anything goes and while I'm not confident enough to put this up as a recommended pick, I still fancy my chances.

Re Fantasy, damn, I'm neglecting it again despite promising not to... just too little motivation on my part to do anything else but picks.

@toma: yep I def pulled the trigger. Wish me luck cause Liverpool just lost ha...

did not believed, it is always close for Barcelona, but 20 years, this one should come to an end
yeah, Bilbao is taking it seriously at home, not on away matches with Barca

Rayo scored, Cadiz got a red card, should we call this one cleared for Rayo, or Cadiz has some strength to continue their draw strike
edit: one more in overtime, now should be gone for Cadiz

Today it was confirmed that Benzema will miss this game and sevilla ML odds got slashed super hard and they're now sitting at 7/1. Hopefully those hoping for a Sevilla win pulled the trigger last night Cheesy
