I lost some bets yesterday but the one I am most mad at is losing because of Hoffenheim.They were winning 1-3 and missed a penalty and it was the game I was less worried about.I had Olimpiacos,Rangers,Tottenham,Shakhtar and Hoffenheim and the odd of this parlay was great.I still don’t understand what Molde scored the goals for when it is clear they will be eliminated in the return leg,they scored just to ruin my bet.
Arsenal on the other hand seem to be having the worst day but, i won't se it very much as the worst as they are playing from an away side and at the moment, its Benfica 1-1 Arsenal with the game already looking like a draw but still, Arsenal remains the dominating force in the game.
If it wasn't for Auba's misses [Laca would've easily scored those] and Arteta's tactics to play from the back [credits to Benfica for not pushing "that deep" in the second half], it could've been a different scoreline.Antwerp - Rangers another crazy game, wqhich ended with difficult Rangers win 4:3. Rangers of Steve Gerrard is serious team this season, it's interesting to follow them.
I only watched the highlight for this one and indeed it was a crazy one [a lot of mistakes by the referee and I'm not ruling out Antwerp yet].As an Arsenal fan, I hate seeing both Man U/Spurs's current forms in UEL [I doubt will be able to normally qualify even for next year's conference league [UECL], let alone UEL].
I still think about them as a very strong team they should be in the Champions League but they paid the fact to be in a hard group.
Napoli lost 2-0 and this was surprising for me, They are a better team than Granada.

Well, I know I wasn't surprised to see Napoli lose yesterday . They've been fond of pulling moves like that since the start of the season; always losing games where they are the favorites. They went 2-0 down before the 25th minute and they did very little to equalise. It's a good thing they'd get a second chance to give it a try.
As for Man Utd, they had a good shot of making it out of their UCL group. They were like 6 points ahead of both Leipzig and PSG and lost it. So they are right where they belong. Won't be surprised if they go ahead to win the Europa league though. They are one of the biggest team in UEL.
Manchester Utd were unbelievably good and completely destroyed Real Sociedad 4-0. We can clearly say that they are already in the next round. Bruno Fernandes had another superb game in which he scored 2 goals. Rashford and Daniel James also were awesome that each of them got 1 goal and 1 assist.

@coinlocket$ there’re days when Manchester United stun me with their performances, and this was one of those days which left me wondering why the hell aren't they playing like this in the premier league. Also it’s pertinent to note that Bale also scored for Tottenham, and I’m absolutely delighted for him as this goal should silence his critics.

What do you guys think about the Milan game ? They deserved the draw ? they deserved to win ? In my opinion, Red Star Belgrade was better tonight and they should've won as Milan had no real desire to win just because they have the big derby in weekend against Inter. That red card affected the game a lot but they actually manage to pull out a big chance and score to make the game 2-2 and I'm looking forward for the 2nd game between this 2 as I have a feeling that Red Star will move forward. ( It will depends if Ac Milan wins vs Inter )
Antwerp - Rangers another crazy game, wqhich ended with difficult Rangers win 4:3. Rangers of Steve Gerrard is serious team this season, it's interesting to follow them.
I knew it that Antwerp will try a little bit tonight with a great play although they lost with a red card, who knows what would happen if played without man down, I noticed them quite long time ago when they defeated Tottenham 1nil during the group stage matches, bookmakers gave them a very high winning odds, I think this is their first time playing in Europe competition (not sure though). Rangers on the other hand is a champion club that had played perfectly both in UEFA champion and Europa league games with wide international experience. Antwerp wouldn't accept defeat in their next week away leg.

Of course, Ajax's chances of qualifying for the next round are greater than Lille, because Ajax in the second leg only needs a draw. You can see
the fighting spirit of Ajax players, when Ajax conceded first by Lille. Ajax didn't just give up, finally in the final minutes of the second half Ajax
managed to score 2 goals.
This is a known fact. Ajax is a good team coupled with the fact that in this encounter, they didn't just win but scored two away goals which is an added advantage for them in the second leg. Should they lose by 3 goals to 1, they are very much out of the league but the chances of this happening is very slim as Ajax knows it and they are going to be fighting so as not to conceive a goal in there next encounter. The best Lile might have would be a draw as they are very much goners now.the fighting spirit of Ajax players, when Ajax conceded first by Lille. Ajax didn't just give up, finally in the final minutes of the second half Ajax

One team i wasn't expecting to loose was Napoli but, they surely didn't play well and its cost them more need to do in the next encounter.
Lille - Ajax is quite boring. Ajax got 71% possession and got a few changes. Lille is only defending. They are just waiting/hoping for a counter.
Its strange i didn't think this match would be goalless since both teams are on top form in their respective championships and especially lille because they are at home i thought they would be the ones with more Goal chances.

the shots on target made by Ajax players are far more than that of Lille players. So it is very worthy for Ajax to win the match against Lille.
a really disappointing result Napoli came out with today, they lost two goals to nil, they couldn't manage to score at least one goal, they even got only one shot on goal, which makes it really hard for them in the 2nd leg, i am going to keep an eye on them, as they can turn tables and qualify if they find the key to Granada's defense while trying to keep a clean sheet.
Lille - Ajax is quite boring. Ajax got 71% possession and got a few changes. Lille is only defending. They are just waiting/hoping for a counter.
Everything suddenly changed in the last minutes of the match. Ajax got a penalty and Tadic scored it in the 87th minute. Only two minutes later than that, Brobbey scored and Ajax won the match 2-1. They deserved to win for sure but it was really a dramatic way to do it.
Quite interesting Europa league matchday.
I didn't expected such easy MU win, Real Sociedad disappointed me. It's safe to say that MU in the next round already.
Draw between Slavia and Leicester isn't very surprising, but I expected many goals in this game, both teams prefer attacking football usually.
Young Boys - Bayer was crazy game. Bayer made comeback from 3:0 to 3:3, but conceded goal on 89th minute.
Antwerp - Rangers another crazy game, wqhich ended with difficult Rangers win 4:3. Rangers of Steve Gerrard is serious team this season, it's interesting to follow them.
Granada 2:0 win against Napoli is probably biggest upset tonight. Napoli looked really poor tonight, it will be difficult to make comeback for them.
Molde - Hoffenheim another high scoring game which ended 3:3. Hoffenheim were leading 3:1 at one point, but failed to win.
Spurs in the next round already, Villarreal and Shalhtar made serious statements to reach it too.

Ajax won with 1-2 so they got a good chance to get to the next round. Lille scored first but Ajax got a penalty in the 84 minute for the 1-1. Few minutes later they score their second.
make some small bets today for teams from the English league...
Man Utd vs Real Sociedad
Tottenham vs Wolf
Leicester vs Slavia
Arsenal vs Benfica
only the final results of Leicester and Arsenal have not been guessed. go go go England team.
If you made it just a single bet it would seem fine because anyway, I'm basically not sure the England team will fully win and it happens. In this league we cannot underestimate a team that looks weak because maybe a different caste league, like the high caste in the EPL, Serie A which on paper wins but still on the field there will always be resistance that won't make it easy for big teams to win.Man Utd vs Real Sociedad
Tottenham vs Wolf
Leicester vs Slavia
Arsenal vs Benfica

Arsenal vs Benfica has entered injury time, if it ends in a draw then I have 2 wins and 2 losses today. not so painful. *btw, I prefer the style of playing teams from the English league
English teams are doing great today, at least Manchester united and Tottenham both scored over 4 goals in the games though, Manchester united were at there best today not to have conceived a goal. Arsenal on the other hand seem to be having the worst day but, i won't se it very much as the worst as they are playing from an away side and at the moment, its Benfica 1-1 Arsenal with the game already looking like a draw but still, Arsenal remains the dominating force in the game. Still hope they win the game though.
Yes man united and tottenham did great since they are playing good in the premiere league but arsenal not so match but they are managing against a good team like benfica,they have experience in the europa league.

Benfica Arsenal is on my list too. Two teams with not much grip this year: they are both under-performing in their respective leagues and so Europe Leauge is some testing ground to keep some value over the rest of the season. Arsenal is the favorite for this game, in my opinion.
Me too
but I'm not sure which one will be the winner I prefer total goals, both teams to score and total corners ( BetBuilder) total odss @2.9I know Arsenal are on fire but Benfica is unpredictable at times they can be a strong team against other strong teams like when they fought Munich some time ago.
Arsenal game over 2.5 goals seems to be in danger. Both teams have had only 1 shot on target in the first half. The odds that its over 2.5 goals is kinda low..unless Arsenal manage to pick the pace up.
EdiT: Okay that took a turn and its 1-1 with 30 mins to go. Good luck.
ManU and Spurs scored 4 goals both which made things almost impossible for the other teams to catch up.
Leicester and Milan surprisingly drawn but definitely the weirdest match is Young Boys 4 - 3 Leverkusen!
Ahem Ahem, Spurs couple of seasons ago.. Ahem Ahem.. Barcelona vs PSG.. Theres been some great comebacks when the opponents have had 3-4 goals. Will be tougher since the quality of EPL sides is much greater than their opponents. Leicester and Milan surprisingly drawn but definitely the weirdest match is Young Boys 4 - 3 Leverkusen!
