Anybody taking Chelsea today @5 odds? They haven't been doing well but I really feel that they can complicate things for City.
I feel there's huge value there, not sure how to approach it though. Chelsea not to lose still pays out more than 2/1, but these odds aren't that attractive.

They do have a lot of injuries, especially in defense. City should be without both Dias and Laporte as well, so BTTS/over 2,5 look attractive as well.

I would get the double chance as the best bet if they have the odds to win at 5 it means that double chance should be 1.7-2 depending on the odd provider and by doing so you have a 66.67% chance to win your bet.I think the best thing to do if you are seriously thinking of placing such bet is placing very little money on a Chelsea win and a substantial amount for Chelsea double chance.

I personally see no value in this as most likely Manchester City will win tonight because they have not been that consistent with wins lately and I think it is time to change that.

City and Chelsea are left to play, but Chelsea performance so far does not make it a derby, does it

Chelsea performance since the resumption makes a fair game imo, while Man City performance since they resumed the is raising a lot of eyebrows, of course that's Guardiola's fault of selection but until I see their best xi play, I really can make any conclusion as to what should be expected of them, I'll probably go for BTTS or Over 2.5 for the game, but I'm not comfortable with a Man City to win bet, although they're very likely to remain my pick in the pool.

I think that based on their last games City will have a problem to get that Over 2.5 goals in this game.That is because most likely Chelsea will play defensively and won't try to attack a lot as if they lose this game they risk a lot in their fight for the top 4 during this season,so I don't think they will risk and think let's beat Manchester City and go all in attack.Manchester City on the other hand needs to win this game at all costs if they want to go back to being 5 points from Arsenal otherwise if they get a draw or lose the game here they compromise further their title fight.

This round its really tought because two of the bigs plays against themselves. And Arsenal played against Newcastle one of the top 4. So you dont have so much room to easy results.

I agree and the same goes for the bottom teams. I thought Southampton will finally get some points and break their streak at home but I guess not this round. Tongue

Currently, i'm tied with my worst round(13) as i'm sitting with 2.5 points and hopefully I'll at least get a point or more in the last two matches.

yeah, no easy matches in this round, agree
and I really don't know why I believed in Villa and Leeds to win, they were so obvious to blow

Tottenham scored four pieces on Palace is really surprising, their performance being low after WC, but close goals by Kane, and everything slides after that

City and Chelsea are left to play, but Chelsea performance so far does not make it a derby, does it

Man United managed to score 3 points against Bournemouth's last night, with 3 clean goals, to be my correct result in the pool.

United are starting to come out of that shell of theirs despite winning some games in a scrapy fashion... But who cares, it's all about those 3 points that count..and am hoping CR7 doesn't find himself in this performance for pulling down the team when he was around Roll Eyes

Otherwise boys are playing some good football

Quote from: Ulven on January 04, 2023, 09:42:21 AM

I think that Shaw is a perfect addition to the ranks of United, and Rachford's improvement is starting to find his way to the goal and score goals.

Rash and Shaw always put up a good show and I feel the manager needs to tone down with his so called punishments which really kill player moral at times. If he wants to see these lads put in a 101% on the field let the lads have fun out there.

And I don't know if Kane is able to score against Crystal Palace

Been a true believer of Spurs getting the results in their favor and they have let me down in two game weeks already , and this time I feel kane and Team won't have it in them, before you know it boom they run riot and get 4 goals past crystal Palance like what the f... The premier league is just so unpredictable hope these guys get consistent results from now on.

@toke what are you following these days if not football? What the hell could be better than football??

I noticed the change when the covid lock downs started some time in 2020. There was nothing on except the UFC. So I got way deeper into it than I already did.

Didn't even realise that was still on. I sort of remember the onset and being a lot more occupied with work and family at the time -- even if football had been around, I'd have been too tied up to really focus. It wasn't even really tough for me in particular, but definitely some crazy time for the family back home.

Your post reminded me.

I have to say I didn't have your same regard for Eddie Howe, one has to see how long he can take that effect into his teams -- he is a bit like Klopp in that regard, can't seem to maintain success with the same personnel after some years.

My respect was for Potter but even then I think Chelsea was a step too high up.

^ Yup. I actually have high regard for Eddie Howe and I actually said I fancy him managing a club like Arsenal or a club in the same tier as Arsenal. I think it was 3 - 4 years ago. Some time before covid.

So yeah.. Just amazed how he's evolved. With Bournemouth score lines would usually be 3 - 2, 2 - 1, mostly over 2.5 goals matches. With Newcastle, the defense is just solid. And with that oiler money backing the club, they're gonna be a force that's gonna be hard to deal with.

With only a few signings, the team already appears to be balanced and ready to compete for top four and six at the end of the season; when the oil money is put to use, they may well turn into title contenders next season; they have the resources and a good coach who plays beautiful attacking football. From being the poorest-funded squad in 20 years to one of the wealthiest in the world. How quickly time passes. Cool

Forgot to put my scores in for this round. I'm not gonna bother putting the ones in for the rest of the week's games and just take advantage of the default picks and see how I do. I think I'll probably do better with that to be honest Grin

. Got 2 points so far which is better than a handful of people who put their scores in and five other people are also on 2 points.

Superbru's website is totally a garbage put together Roll Eyes

I opened flashscore on two different browsers and my phone to double check if I was dreaming or some shit lol

Meanwhile Brighton is totally trashing Everton around. Lampard got alot of things to handle if he wants to survive the relegation zone by the end of the season

I wouldn't use Superbru for anything other than just putting in the scores and keeping track of them and it's perfect for that. It's definitely not for keeping up to date on the current scores etc as it can take a while to update. I just use Sofascore for that. They have an website and app. My only criticism of Superbru is like I've said before: I think you should get an extra point or two for an exact score but aside from that I haven't come across anything better or even close to it.

Considering they are free to use, Superbru is a great option. Things like these don't happen often - and get fixed quickly anyway.
I agree that the site is not perfect, but it would also be much more difficult to organize such competitions without it.

I agree, I like their simple interface and how they thoughtfully send reminders if I haven't made predictions ahead of time. For a free product, they are great.
As I understand it, in order to avoid problems, you need to make your predictions in advance (and not 5 minutes before the game when there will be an influx of visitors on the site) and check the results of the games after some time and not immediately after the end of the matches.

Superbru is a great way to organize the pools and I have been always against other forms of organizing the pools for the simple reason that it is super easy to use and they both have the website or the app if you are on the move.On top of that for people that want more like previews,insightful tips and other related information they can opt to become Premium Members which I think everybody participating in this pool can afford it at 2.49 dollars monthly.

Why would anyone pay $2.49 per month for something they only use four times a month? If the premium package's only benefit is previews and insightful tips, it's not worth it. Is there a specials package for the premium plan? We are driving traffic to the site, which is sufficient to keep it running. I was unable to put tips for the Liverpool game due to their shit

It's still a mystery how Ancelotti ended up at Everton; their scouting network is abysmal, and they keep overhauling the team every season. I don't think Lampard is the issue; they should give him more time to build the team, even if it means regulating the club for the first time.

Quote from: tokeweed on January 04, 2023, 09:16:12 AM

I would've had Arsenal scoring a couple of goals and prolly a goal for Newcastle, for a 2 - 1. But now looking at the stats, I didn't know Newcastle has the least goals against with just 11 goals scored against them. It's far from how Eddie Howe played his squad at Bournemouth. Lol. Looks like he must have realized a thing or two after he got the sack.

Most of these mid table coaches are extremely talented; all they need are the right players and a good project to prove. Do you believe Pep can lead Bournemouth to 10th place? Nah

Yes, it's certainly convenient to have a platform like Superbru available to help organize pools and competitions. It can make the process of setting up and managing a pool much easier and more efficient. It's also good to hear that issues like the one you mentioned are not common and are usually resolved quickly.

I think that if Tottenham does not win against Crystal Palace then I can start to consider this as a failed season so far for them.They were beaten by Aston Villa at home in the last game which many say including me that they were caught by surprise or their players did a bit more festivities when they knew they would be playing in 1 January.

I think Kane is going to score as they know the importance of such game and they know that they should get the three points which I think they will do and they will help the best goal scorer they have to score goals.

Lol yup, the site kinda is clunky. And now the app is acting up too. Sometimes I can't connect and have to delete and install it again.

I am sure they will fix this as before they had it only when you locked the picks you could see other people picks but now I don't know,if the data is readily available without anyone locking the picks then it definitely needs to be fixed.

Superbru does not use external check for results unless there are problems. It just shows the results other users report. It is not meant to be used for such things. It is just supposed to be a place where you enter prediction and then don't look the tables at least an hour after the game finishes.

They are sort of victims of their success and now it is probably time to do some scaling and proper data fetching.
