Most of the games in previous weeks had clear favourites in my mind and I made picks easy. That did not work so well as my points and rank show. Now this week all the games look suspicious to me and I have no clue what results to pick. That means that I will do extremely well and win yellow cap. Right?
Just trying to do a little self pep talk on rainy day here in Croatia. Good thing it is friday.

On games like this I usually like something like both teams to score (or both teams to score in both halves), 2 cards each team and 2 corners each half by both team. You usually get good odds on them at least on Skybet what I use. Don't know what the odds are yet as they haven't put the bet up yet but it's usually between 80-200/1 for both teams to score in both halves. The same bet on the England v Denmark match tonight is 300/1 but I wouldn't back that one. If you think there's going to be goals then it's often a good bet though.

I don't mean to plug Sportsbet here but their new betbuilder is exactly what allows for these types of bets (I'm a sucker for those specials sometimes). They seem to have a small boost to each selection too, so you end up with a nice bump too. Not quite the value of Skybet but definitely something I like to think about.
I usually go for over 1.5 cards and over 8.5 corners on a games I expect to be very attacking/defending on one end. It's when both teams play the same style I avoid. They're not really very good value odds on their on but they tape on significant boosts on ML odds.
I had no idea you get 80/1 for that kind of thing. Going to have to see if can build that sort of bet next time. The way teams are playing these days...

Yup! And first match of the weekend... Early kick off game between Everton and Liverpool! Yeeesszz!
Everton is running hot with Calvert-Lewin and Liverpool kinda shakey at the back... Adrian.
First impression for the match BTTS and over 2.5 combo at 1.62. Not much value.
Edit: Anytime goal scorer for Calvert-Lewin is 2.29.. Hmmm. What do you guys think?

Dunno... I'm not too sure that would be a good idea with many of the players from both sides just right off from international duty. I think it's gonna be a tight match and I'm thinking of dropping a little action on the first half result draw at a tad over plus money.
Edit: Double chance for Arsenal at 2.87 seems like value too. KDB and Sterling were pulled out during international duty. That's huge if they can't play, esp KDB.
Edit: Another spot I like is Brighton draw no bet at 1.92 vs Palace. There's a little value there imo.

after the international match break, it's time again on saturday and the ball rolls back into the stadiums.
fc everton vs. fc liverpool will be very exciting among other things

It is getting slowly to us now.I am going to put my predictions so I don’t forget.The pause because of the National teams was really boring and the Nations League games were even more boring to watch on Tv.Now time to watch the lovely Premier League which is famous for not boring games.
They really shouldn’t be playing these pointless international games when there’s a global pandemic happening.
International football is dull as hell too, I haven’t been interested in it since I was about 12, it just gets in the way of my main love LFC.

You can say that again, the international breaks are so dull. It’s all about the PL & CL for me, everything else bores the hell out of me. Need to do my predictions for the weekend
I hate international breaks, especially friendly matches. Only unnecessarily burden the players.
It will be fine if we have a list of players who will not play because of a positive Covid test. I think Liverpool had some new cases. It can be important because they have to play a very hard game against Everton.
It's nice to see some teams play, especially the big fixtures, but I don't like it when they don't take them serious and field b-teams. With that being said, friendlies are beneficial as practice for international tournaments but this whole nation's League thing is a bit of a joke. I get why they did it though but it's just another cash cow at the end of the day.

yeah, League of Nations does not have any real meaning, and it is really boring to watch, especially if your country is not doing well, as is the case with Serbia, nobody is watching the competition here, we wait for the match with Scotland for European championship
regarding Premier league, can't wait to watch match in Liverpool, we are at top form at the moment, and this break is only good for LFC, but hopefully we will score and win after several dry years
Friendlies usually don't have any meaning but that's why they created this Nation's League to try give it some.

That sounds like a bargain and you even have bad odds, what site is that? I just placed that bet on stake @2.7. I also added both to score in first half @3.8 and Calvert-Lewin to score first goal @7.5. Sportsbet has same odds and even boost if you had not used it yet but my account has dried up today so couldn't place a bet there.Now I know what I want to see, DCL goal in first 10 minutes and then Liverpool strikes back with at least one goal until half time and wins the game later on.
FJ.. Most of my coins are there and it's mostly the only site I use for football. Tho I started using Stake for UFC props. But I busted my account at betting Esports. Rofl.
Stake has Calvert-Lewin anytime goal scorer at 2.7.

I don't think these are such good odds at all.
All LFC players except from Allison are cleared to play (Matip, Mane, Thiago, Keita) and Liverpool will want to play it as safe as possible after conceding 7 to Aston Villa.
Calvert-Lewin is in good form but he'll be playing against one of the best teams in the world. With Mane in the team Liverpool's press will be on a good level again and with Thiago, they will keep the ball much better.
I'd bet on Liverpool, Calvert-Lewin scoring might be a decent shot but it's far from a certain thing.

Yeah, and this rounds opening game is the Liverpool derby as well which could be huge. If Everton can get a win at home then they'll be buzzing and retain the number one spot. Villa in second place have a game in hand though and are playing two games so could overtake them depending on the results. Too early to put too much emphasis on who is in first place right now but start as you mean to go on. Winning streaks often give teams a huge confidence boost.
Liverpool always mess up after an international break and I would really hate to see this in this round but it seems odds are telling that we may see another not win for Liverpool. At least I am not confident.Everton are playing good so far, they are playing in the home, Liverpool mess up after international break, Liverpool lost their last match badly against a team like Villa. Shit! But I am still going to back by team.
I really hope to see something different from the boys please.

I’m sure I read that Juve refused to release their players for the internationals. It’s all about money, it’s the only reason these games are being player. The real bread & butter is club football.
No kidding? 
So no rolando in the UEFA play for portugal then? What a shame clubs do this to their players under contract. If they want to play for their country. But it is what it is.
I would of thought it was for reasons due their last match being forfeited. I didn't look into the details to why they didn't play last weekend.
This isn't true. Ronaldo played in the friendly game against Spain this week and if he plays in a friendly then he'll almost certainly be playing in the Nations League game tomorrow. I'm not even sure clubs can withhold players like this, otherwise they would probably just do it all the time as they don't want to risk them getting inured. The only people who probably have a say whether they're playing or not is the players themselves. I'm sure I remember Ronaldo missing a few pointless international games before whilst he's been on sunning it up on holiday. He might have even missed some games for Real or Juve when they've not mattered as well.
This is Nations league play and this is the qualifying stage so his county's team most certainly would want him to dress for this one. They need to pass the round to move on to the next stage of the pool.
If it is really up to the players whether they play or not and not up to their respective league in la liga/series a/premier/la ligue, then I would say he will play in tomorrow's match for portugal as well.

7-2.. Holy shit, that one gotta sting for a while huh? 
Pretty sure Man U fans are happy they're not the only ones.
But yeah.. Sucks. I mean City drawing 1 - 1 vs Leeds really sucked too. The bad news is I heard Adrian will still be playing vs Everton next week as Alisson will still not be available.
Alisson is out for 4-6 weeks which means Adrian in goal for a significant period
Ugh.. Good luck next weekend. Everton's Calvert-Lewin is running pretty hot with the goal scoring. He could win the golden boot this season imo. I was thinking it would be Auba since he's captain (?) and would prolly play all league matches. Looks like I'm wrong... again. Lol.
