What a win by Crvena Zvezda today to turn it around. After losing unexpectingly in the first leg 2-1 now they have won 5-0 but Kairat came without 4 players due to covid. Also Crvena Zvezda had only children in the stands due to uefa punishing them
Sometimes I care about these ones more than the real CL 
I guess it all depends on where you're from, for some of us from smaller countries these games are huge - because winning them means your local team can get into the CL. If you take CL for granted because the team you support plays in it every year - then these games are boring as hell because the quality is sometimes really low.

Yeah, you are right, I forgot about it.
I'm a Juventus fan and usually, we are already in top groups but the year was very close to being out from the Champions and the next one will maybe be banned
.I'm looking now on teams of the list and some are really interesting teams like Monaco who were a strong team some years ago, the good times when Campos built the team.
ps. 1xbet (1xbit) are back and front of the jersey sponsors of Kairat, i hope Red Star smashes them at home, fuck those shitty cheating sportsbooks, amirite?
Wish granted, 5-0, Serbs are through to the next round.
Here's the third qualifying round pairs:
D.Zagreb - Legia
CFR Cluj - Young Boys
Olympiacos - Ludogorets
Crvena zvezda - Sheriff Tiraspol
Malmo - Rangers
Ferencvaros - Slavia Prague
PSV - Midtjylland
Spartak Moscow - Benfica
Genk - Shakhtar Donetsk
Monaco - Sparta Prague
That's some crazy fixtures man! I've not even seen a game I'd willingly take to win, I might likely go for total bets or teams to advance over 2 legs instead of the regular bets. PSV looks like the easiest one though.
These uefa games are promising to have goals and all my games I had on my watch list have produced goals, though the Celtic verse Midtjylland game went into overtime which isn't what I expected.
Can't believe I forgot to put in my tickets today. Even missed a 4/1 special at my favourite bookie for Celtic to progress and score first -- which they're well on their way towards now after a slow start in first half. They did ruin my acca on the first leg though...
these are my kind of bets, which bookie is this you use for the specials?HT results are all looking rather predictable so everyone doing fav accas should be doing well.
HT I would go for the draw any day, playing the favorites is not my thing because the price is mostly too small. 
first ticket today is Midtjylland - Celtic , BTTS. Odds got slashed in the last couple of hours, i saw it earlier today @1.9 and now it's 1.79. I think Celtic will advance to the next round, but the home advantage for the danes could be a nice boost in confidence/performance, it might help them put up a good fight today
I took the liberty to follow your pick (btw odds jumped back up to 1.89 minutes before the match), parlayed with Galatasaray - PSV btts, which was my main bet of the day. I thought the Dutch couldn't care less after the first leg and we could see goals, welp that late red saved the day for me.

Celtic was very close to progress in next stage of Champions League after McGregor scored first goal but Midtjylland managed to equalize, win in extra time and progress in next phase playing against PSV.
My prediction was still correct for this match because I predicted double chance X2 and it was 1:1 draw in regular time.
First leg of semi finals are played next week so there is not much time for rest.

Am I the only one who doesn't care about these games?
For me, the Champions will start with the draws and this year they will be the 26th of August.
For sure not For me, the Champions will start with the draws and this year they will be the 26th of August.
Since I am not familiar with most of these teams and have no intention to, I just follow the results and see if known names will progress to the next stage.
So far, zvezda made a surprising 5 goals in the second leg although it was behind 1-2 in the 1st leg. Sparta Prague too scoring 2-0 vs Rapid Wien, both matches didn't finish yet.
Well, for me it wasn't profitable day. Yeah, there weren't many upsets, but my bets for goals over/under wasn't successful.
Biggest upset is Celtic loss after extra time. Well, I said that Midtjylland win is possible. And they played much better than in 1st leg, while Celtic didn't had much to offer.
It's been a while since Celtic played in group stage last time. They also gave league title to Rangers after long dominance - really not best times for Celtic.

It's been a really great day for to be very honest, it was the exact opposite of the first leg where I lost every bet I placed, The odds were literally much better today and going as predicted, I really need just PSV, Young Boys and Ludogorets to see out their respective win and I would complete a clean sweep of all my bets today ☺️☺️

Really good value for Olympiacos win today - 1.95. 1st leg ended with minimal OLY win, so they are still not confident about next round and win will be needed to avoid drama.
Cluj - Lincoln Red Imps. Cluj won 1st game just 2:1 against Gibraltar amateurs. But I think today they are going to win big, so over 2.5 goals @1.62 is safe bet IMO
Ludogorets - Mura - 0:0 in 1st leg, I don't think we can expect many goals today too. Under 2.5 @1.85, or safer option NO BTTS @1.50
I expect Crvena Zvezda win, but odds is too low to bet.

Agree about BTTS. But personally, I would like to see Celtic eliminated and I think it's possible. 
you have to be very careful about betting at this stage...
yeah, i lost a couple of singles last week (i think they were big upsets, tbf) so, we could be in for more surprises tonight, but hey, no risk no reward, right? i'll try my luck again,first ticket today is Midtjylland - Celtic , BTTS.

Its part of the risk, there is no way to guarantee that you might get profit from betting.
Personally, I'll refrain from betting! I'll just watch Galatasaray vs PSV... Probably the most famous clubs playing today...
It should be an easy win for PSV unless they decided to defence today. The first half was 5-1 for PSV so Galatasaray needs to score to catch up and PSV is not really a team that would stay in their position then defence. Its going to be both team to score though or simply take Galatasaray to win today. I honestly think Galatasaray is going to win today but PSV will still qualify for the next round
Yes, there are a lot of interesting matches today, but as has been said here before, you have to be very careful about betting at this stage... Personally, I'll refrain from betting! I'll just watch Galatasaray vs PSV... Probably the most famous clubs playing today...
Interesting games today in the preliminary qualifiers of Champions League.I think there is money to be made as always during these games,we only have to not touch difficult games and choose like easy ones.What I mean is if you want a nice win today at 1.50 odd we should choose Sheriff Tiraspol which plays against a much weaker team and they have won even away the first leg so playing at home should be an easy win for them.In the end this is gambling and anything can happen but in theory they should win easily.
Although this might be an easy money-making machine but I personally will still be careful betting in matches like this, with the wins that have been obtained, the home team may just play more relaxed with a draw which is basically safe for them. But if you want to move forward by betting on the top teams at this moment, then be careful you don't have to spend a lot of money because the most important thing is that we can enjoy the match with the bets we make. Because even a team like Olympiacos which I'm sure would easily have won big in the first leg, but the result only won 1-0 and that's something to consider in a game like this.The "in theory they should win easily" is exactly the problem all of us gamblers have. How often did we analyze a game back and forth, considered every single possible substitution, head to head statistics and so on and so forth and yet those games end in a tie or the favorite even loses. I don't find these games to be predicted easily at all. As you say with Olympiacos, the favorites are always up against teams who play the matches of their lives and are motivated like hell. It is not easy to score sometimes, the minutes passing by and boom it is 0 - 0 in minute 82 or so and pressure is increasing. Gambling remains gambling after all.
Rapid Vienna will have a goal advantage when they play against Sparta Prague today in the 2nd leg, I think if Rapid Vienna are going to adopt a defensive strategy when they play against Sparta Prague today, they might be able to force a draw at the final whistle and progress to the next qualifying round.
I think football has changed over the years, and afaik teams avoid this play style of depending what you have especially if it's only a goal difference. If Rapid Vienna wants to defend then they better attack as it's the only way to defend and secure a place in the next stage.
But I would be worry of Sparta Prague has they are a good team when they want to and they should give Rapid Vienna a run for their money.
Is the away goal rule scrapped off in these games...

Matches at this level are very difficult to predict, as there are many teams about which we know very little, and for the most part it will be a random bet.Today you can consider the Young Boys - Slovan match for bet. The Young Boys have artificial stadium cover and are well accustomed to it, and all visiting teams find it very difficult to adapt to it quickly and therefore it is difficult to play. Young Boys also score goals well at home. The match is difficult to predict, but the home team has advantages.
Rapid Vienna will have a goal advantage when they play against Sparta Prague today in the 2nd leg, I think if Rapid Vienna are going to adopt a defensive strategy when they play against Sparta Prague today, they might be able to force a draw at the final whistle and progress to the next qualifying round.
