This fine forum is trending towards dormancy, and I just can't have that. Hopefully we see some plays from the old guard of BenchCoach, Bason, Kid, and Snafu soon. In the meantime I'll try to give some decent plays to keep things interesting around here. Haven't been posting much lately as...
Liverpool is steamrolling their way through the league, and there aren't many spots where I can see them dropping points, but this is one, especially considering the extra games they've played in Club World Cup recently. Leicester has been terrific defensively except for the thrashing that De...
Valencia has been playing well in recent weeks, and both teams have been netting goals. I think that continues, unless an anomalous nil-nil game occurs
BTTS -175
This line seems low to me considering the way the team totals read, but I'll bite as the DR is fairly abysmal traditionally, however they did manage a 1-0 home win vs El Salvador in September, so we have revenge and by far the best team in the group at home here, so I'm taking:
El Salvador -1.5...
Two chalky plays:
Spurs -190 vs Sheffield United
Napoli win and over 1.5 -210 vs Genoa
Parlay the two above with Munich/Dortmund over 1 FH and Al Hilal/Urawa Red Diamonds under 1.5 FH adds up to +330
International break time is tough to bet leagues, but this line is noteworthy
Oxford United +.5 -155 @ Fleetwood Town
Fleetwood is getting +120 at home and I'd cap it at around -130 or so. Fishy one here.
Small 5x play, once October arrives there'll be plenty of info for more plays
Basing this play on the mythical match btwn Napoli and Ajax. Line was a pick with Ajax slightly favored, and no doubt this line wasn't made without considering that Ajax can score 4 or more any time they face an in league team. Ajax does indeed have a minimum of 4 late in Beker Cup @ Willem...
ML Parlay:
Bayern Munich/Virginia Cavaliers +107 (2 units)
Don't want to lay it for BM, even though like Bason, I think this line is high. Just in case it's a trap, attached Wahoos, who I've liked to at least get to the title game (I think they win it all).
Spurs stock is about as low as it'll get, and it's time to buy. First match in their new stadium to boot. They played well at Liverpool and easily could have taken a valuable point with them if not for Lloris committing a poor attempt at a save which lead to the own goal Liverpool winner...
1045 EST: Dutch Eredivisie
Ajax -150 vs PSV Eindhoven (2 units)
1130: EPL
Liverpool -180 vs Spurs (2 units)
Going faves today as both these games have sucker lines for the visiting underdogs
Hit a couple of unders this morning that fit the mold, one more still on the board so thought I'd post for your viewing pleasure. Poster's jinx dead ahead heh...
u/2.5 -115 Inter v Fiorentina
These unders are a tangent off the system I've used all along in which the better side is getting...
Following Kid on Sevilla and the Bayern mythical. In addition:
10 AM Eastern / La Liga 2
Oviedo +.5 -155 @ Albacete (1 unit)
At 5d. Albacete getting +142 at home seems suckerish. First vs sixth in table.
Roll out your opinions on what Chelsea may do tomorrow @ Malmo. Not sure what kind of lineup they'll put out there, but I suspect Sari will be in face saving mode after the mounting they took from City, thus they will play a solid squad looking to win by as much as possible. What say yee all
Early lines versus present:
Ajax +.5 -120 +295 / Now pk -125 +160
RM -.5 ev ev / Now pk +110 +210
This is a huge shift, prisoner of the moment play on Ajax pk -125 maybe they steel this.
EPL
o/1 FH -155 City v Chelsea (1 U)
Something seems a little off about the first half lines, but it'd be unusual to not see a fh goal in a City game.
