Unfortunately for Leverkusen, they can widen the gap with Bayern. They dropped points when they were held to a draw by Dortmund. Bayern will be determined to regain the top spot, but even if that happens, they will still be level on points in the rankings. Leverkusen are not allowed to make any mistakes again because Bayern is in relatively good form compared to the beginning of the season. Leverkusen is hoping this season can overthrow the Bayern empire that has always dominated this tournament. They need to try to make this arena more interesting. That's something Dortmund failed to do last season.

I would say the opposite, unlucky for Dortmund who took the lead first but in the end conceded too. As a result, the match ended with a score of 1-1. although actually if we talk tactically and technically, Leverkusen is much better than Dortmund. But in football, that's not all that is needed, but how to break through the opponent's goal. Luck factor, comes into play in this situation.

However, as a neutral fan, I like Bayer Leverkusen's style of play. The system that Alonso built for his team is very impressive. especially, the match against Dortmund. So it's only natural that Leverkusen has performed well so far. In fact, they are unbeaten in 13 matches. a consistency that we should appreciate, for the coach and the players.

Unfortunately, Bayern Munich can currently be said to be a team that is on fire. they started to be consistent, solid and strong enough. Moreover, now Neuer has returned. For me, Bayern Munich still has the highest chance of retaining the trophy this season. btw, I'm not a fan of The Bavarians. However, Bayern Munich performed well. plus, have one game postponed. which means, Bayern can at any time match the points that Leverkusen has scored. In fact, it does not rule out the possibility of getting rid of the position occupied by Leverkusen.
and if Alonso is now targeting the Bundesliga trophy, they must be consistent throughout this season. they had to pay for it with hard work, and overthrew Bayern in the second meeting at BayArena. Let's just wait, after all, this competition still has a long match schedule.

Girona's consistent performance will be tested again against Barcelona, ​​of course this is an important match for both of them, especially for Barcelona who are playing at home. Barcelona have dropped 11 points from 15 games so far and they have to do something better if they don't want to drop more points. Girona is a tough opponent, but Barcelona must be careful with Girona's fast game scheme and are quite capable of taking advantage of counter attacks.

Barcelona certainly won't underestimate Girona for whatever reason, but they have to take this match really seriously. Avoiding bad results regardless of drawing or losing is the main goal for Barcelona, ​​so they have to play with their best form to win. A defeat or draw would make Barcelona even worse and further behind in the title race, but I don't imagine they will lose.

Right, this match is a test battle for Girona when facing a stronger team. Moreover, the match will be held at Camp Nou, Barcelona's headquarters. and what is certain, Michel will make sure to find a way to get around the meeting in Week 16 against Barcelona. referring to what you said, Barcelona should actually be able to anticipate every attack that Girona builds. Likewise, when Girona counterattacked. IMO, if Barcelona is able to play like they did when they hosted Atletico, it shouldn't be a problem for them.
For me, the current problem for Barcelona is their front line, which is not scoring enough goals. Lewandowski has lost his sharpness a bit, even though he actually had lots of opportunities if we refer to the match against ATM. In this match, Lewandowski should be able to restore the momentum to score goals again. to raise self-confidence. plus, his instinct for scoring goals. Well, this match is also an opportunity for Barca to reduce the difference in points with the teams above their ranking.

As for Girona, it won't be easy to overthrow Barca, especially since Xavi Hernandez's squad has a fairly strong defensive line. Like it or not, Girona has to look for gaps in Barcelona's weaknesses. My guess is that Girona will focus more on playing more defensively. and as you said, they will rely on counterattacks. Well, because this match still has a break, we can discuss the betting later.

Marseille is far better than lyon and it's above lyon in everything. Lyon will be struggling to take points from lyong. Marseille can take three points easily from lyon as long as it will be perfoming with good chemistry. Marseille was only lack of good chemistry at this moment. Lyon is not going to be a hard opponent for marseille and this is an opportunity to get three points easily. This is a golden chance for marseille to take three points. Im picking marseille coz lyon shows terrible performance. It's even very hurt to watch the gameplay of lyon.
It was hurting my eyes. Lyon has not made even a small improvement and it was not also learning from its mistake.

It is clear that this match is profitable for Gennaro Gattuso's squad to get full points, this match must be their second win after the match against Rennes in the past two weeks. plus, Marseille has the advantage of playing this match at the Orange Velodrome, their headquarters. even though Marseille actually has several players absent due to injury, Lyon's current condition should not be a significant problem for the home team.

In contrast to the Lyon team, Lyon's condition is very worrying, which is currently at the bottom of the red zone. Of the 13 matches, Lyon was only able to win 1 match, 4 draws and 8 defeats. and now, Lyon is being handled temporarily by an interim coach. In essence, both teams will both get full points in this match. none other than that, so that their position increases on the standings. and it seems that both teams will use an offensive pattern. there is no choice, if you want to get full points. It's just that Marseille is more favored by betting bookies. Likewise, based on odds, Marseille is @1.77 and Lyon is @4.40. and if anyone is interested in betting, I think choosing a house with decent odds is quite challenging. Well, let's just wait for the final result of this match.

Arsenal won the match against Luton, surely many people had predicted it. but Arsenal conceded 3 goals in that match, I don't think Arsenal's defense was that bad compared to Luton's attackers.
imagine 4 shots on target and 3 of them are goals. how effective they are in the match. I know it happened because of Arsenal's loose play and it created some gaps in the defense that Luton could exploit. but every time they attack, it's a goal.
I'm sure Arteta has some work to do after that match.

Luton scored two goals through headers, and they were quite difficult to prevent. the last goal scored by Luton players was caused by negligence by Arsenal's defenders. In fact, this match was far from what I initially predicted. I'm sure, initially Arsenal will win this match with a clean sheet. but my prediction is outside the scenario, Luton is able to take advantage of two corner kicks and score a goal. I think towards the end of the match, it looks like it will end in a draw. But fortunately, Declan Rice was the winner for Arsenal in crucial minutes.

Talking about the performance of Arsenal players, several of their defenders underperformed. in particular, Jakub Kiwior. that's why he was replaced by Zinchenko. Likewise with David Raya's appearance, he played really bad. apart from Kiwior, several of their defensive players did not appear impressive. Only after the second half, especially after Zinchenko came on, did Arsenal's defense get a little better. I didn't think that Lotun would give a surprise, even though they didn't have many chances. but with The three goals they scored were clearly homework for Arteta. As a supporter of the Gunners, I am happy that Arsenal were finally able to get full points in last night's match.

It is good for us to understand why we are betting so that we can really defined what we are doing. Gambling is a bit more of understand which is the reason why many people gambler not just for the fun but for the profits they're going to make in a long run. Whatsoever we are doing, it is good for us to have understand I'm and bet according to our Capital and what we can afford to earn.

And most gamblers, follow ego more than understanding why we bet. moreover, who really understands how to determine what we do. However, not all gamblers understand or realize that we can conclude that gambling is more about understanding. As for the other point, that's actually what gambling is like in the modern era like today. This type of entertainment is not just for fun but also can't be denied to get profits that we can win. In the long term, it seems that deeper knowledge, insight and understanding is needed. not just knowing how to gamble, or just analyzing it, especially sports betting.

And overall, I agree with what you said. Simply put, we can choose and sort before carrying out a gambling session.
For me, there are some games that we should separate and differentiate. for slot games, live casino, it's more synonymous with having fun and don't be too focused on getting rewards every session. except, when luck is on our side. if you lose, just end it because the original goal was just to have fun.
in other gambling, especially sports. the importance of understanding as you say. If possible, we need and be aware of knowing when it's time to bet and when it's time to just sit back and observe. that is why understanding is important. But in fact, there are many variables involved in it so that we are more aware of our bets. nothing else, the aim is to maximize and minimize losses. although in reality, the luck factor will always be involved. Armed with the addiction that I experienced before, I have gained a lot of experience and understanding. In the end, I am wiser in every betting session I do. useful, as you say. Apart from getting pleasure, we can also make a profit.

~~

I am guessing by now the OP already found his way to some of the casino games.
But should remind himself that before spending any funds to these casinos, better use only his spare funds.
Because he can easily get addicted to it and would be too late if he will follow his desires.
And he knows very well a particular sport, he would have better chance of winning on sportsbetting.

I think the OP is trying to have a discussion, with the ideas he has in mind. In fact, he didn't forget to ask whether it would have an impact on his real life and result in addiction. I think he is well aware of what he said in this thread. OP even had questions prepared, which could possibly have a negative impact on her. which means, he wants to know more and consider other things. that's why, he tried to discuss it in this thread. Based on my personal point of view, OP already knows what the risks are in gambling if he is involved. He also didn't forget to ask about the best games of all kinds.

Actually, I don't know whether the OP is really a beginner, or he just wants to have an opinion and wants to know the various responses from the community. referring to what you said, OP has actually prepared a low budget. I will interpret it, if he doesn't want to play excessively. because, he knows the risks and that's why he asks, whether it will impact his real life. So, it is not certain that he is easily addicted and finds out too late that he has crossed his limit. moreover, which leads to addiction. So my advice to the OP, do what you want to do. but with the condition, OP must be ready and bear the risk. Ideally, play with funds you can afford.

And we agree on one thing, sports betting has much better probability according to my version. with the condition that many seek insight, knowledge, knowledge and all kinds related to the sport that OP likes.

You might never hear that your government used revenue made from casinos to build some infrastructure until you take a look at the breakdown of the sources of revenue. Check your country's budget and you will see the predicted revenue from gambling tax and licenses. But have you ever seen gambling firms promoting sports activities in your country? In my country, many sporting and other entertainment activities are sponsored by these gambling firms. Nobody supports gambling addiction because it affects society negatively. We also support that the government should put everything in place to shield citizens from gambling addiction. Gambling is as old as man and we cannot dispute the fact that it contributes to many nations financially and otherwise. 

Long ago, when gambling was still legal in my country. the profits they get will be distributed according to what has been designed by the state. Coincidentally, gambling in my country used to be managed by the government. There are many benefits that can be enjoyed by citizens of the country, apart from the main priority being to support sports activities. like funding athletes and all kinds of things, infrastructure is also a part of government projects.

Unfortunately, with various factors and contrary to a belief. In the end, gambling becomes gray and becomes illegal. and what is most unfortunate, traditional gambling, which has actually been part of culture since ancient times, has also been affected. Despite all that, in fact, this has not stopped street gambling practices among the community. In fact, this gives rise to illegal activities and is often exploited by people who want to cheat and enrich themselves. and this doesn't stop someone from becoming an addict even though the government has made it illegal.

And referring to what you said, that should be the case, in particular the government is also taking part in efforts to protect its citizens from addiction by creating bodies or rehabilitation centers for gambling addicts. I really agree, if gambling in my country is legalized again. Rather than today, there are thousands of unlicensed online fiat casinos. can we believe it, of course not at all. fortunately, I am involved in a crypto casino and it is better than a fiat casino which somehow we can claim their reputation especially as they are not licensed.

It would be nice if AI would explain also how he arrived with the prediction.

personally, I haven't tried to ask an AI about predicting a match, is it still chatGPT? or another AI name?
I'm a bit curious now as this has been a popular topic in the forum, and I'm not sure if there are bettors who actually benefited from the AI like their chances of winning had increase with the help of an AI.. Anyone who care to share their success story?

We haven't discussed artificial intelligence technology for a long time, especially for predicting bets. In fact, until now, even though I've never used it. You could say, I'm too old-fashioned to follow this technological development. and as you said in this post, we have the same question.
But in any case, technological developments cannot be separated from our lives, including AI. I believe, even though I have never actually tried it, this artificial intelligence technology can be utilized by its users, including being involved in gambling. It's just that, at this time, my logic and reasoning are not yet able to accept that AI can be used to predict the outcome of a match. maybe it is possible, and AI provides the predictions that users request. However, regarding the results, there is no guarantee that they are 100% correct and accurate.

And I think this is what we are discussing, in fact so far I have not heard, read, or had anyone claim that AI can accurately predict betting, especially sports. In fact, we have been discussing it since Al went viral in the community. there are many various assumptions and reactions, but as I said at the beginning there are no guarantees with that. or maybe, I'm not up to date. However, to help us in searching for data and so on, I think AI will be very helpful, including when involved in gambling, but not as a reference for predictions.

I don't know why Højlund was added to the squad by coach Ten Hag. Manchester United's performances last season were erratic. And the team needed an experienced striker. But Ten Hag bought youngster Højlund at a high price without adding an experienced striker to the squad. And as usual, Højlund's erratic performance has made Manchester United's overall performance quite poor. Also Manchester United's match strategy is not good. So Højlund doesn't fit in well with the team. I wouldn't say Højlund isn't being helped by his teammates.

In the last summer transfer window, there weren't many options to bring in a pure striker, let alone an established one. Previously, Ten Hag had included Harry Kane on their list to bring to Old Trafford. However, as we know, even Bayern had to dig deep into their pockets for players who were about to turn 30 during the last transfer window. Meanwhile, United does not have the budget to buy Kane at the price Spurs want. and if they force only one player, it means they won't be able to bring in other players as newcomers. As for Osimhen, his transfer price is much more fantastic than Kane. Ten Hag tries to find alternatives with a limited budget. In the end, Vlahovic became one of their targets. but for some reason, Ten Hag didn't bring him to Old Trafford. It could be that no deal was reached because the price was too expensive, or Ten Hag had other options. in the end, they brought Højlund from Atalanta.

According to official sources conveyed from United's website at that time, Ten Hag had a special interest even though he knew that Højlund was not a pure sticker who was ready to use. but because there weren't many choices and Ten Hag had Marcus Rashford, they finally brought him to Old Trafford.
By the way, whatever player United is targeting, the price will automatically increase and it will be fantastic. So it is very natural that Højlund was brought in at a slightly excessive price.

For me the point is not with Højlund, but with the other United players.  We can see that it is not uncommon for Rashford to play badly and be lazy lately. apart from that, Ten Hag was unable to apply his playing style and system because many of his core players were injured. as for the matches they win, it's not uncommon for ugly wins. Apart from that, there were several problems that occurred in the United camp with several of their players. So, I'm curious, is this purely Ten Hag's fault. Suppose Ten Hag is fired. United's problems will not be better, just like previous coaches. that's why, there is an idea that Don Carlo could be the best option for United. because one of United's problems is in their dressing room.

Well, apart from all that, we'll see when United play Bayern Munich on matchday six of the group phase.
1410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: December 05, 2023, 07:18:02 PM

Both players candidate to be Saudi Pro League top scorer between Cristiano Ronaldo and Mitrovic have quit age difference almost ten years with Ronaldo over 39 years old and Mitrovic 29 years old. Its not related comparison between Ronaldo and Mitrovic but I most excited with Ronaldo can compete with player have more young age on top scorer standings position. Both them remaining two goals left Mitorvic made brave last match and Cristiano Ronaldo failed score goals yet when facing Mitorvic teams.

Comparison not only with age but also how support from teams mate to make easy for striker scoring goals, Mitrovic have solid teams mate and Ronaldo with the same condition but Al Hilal have better player on every position. I think Ronaldo not close yet his opportunity to be Saudi Pro League top scorer with many matches left and have two difference goals from Mitrovic.

This is a part that is quite complicated for us to predict, the problem is that sometimes a player can experience ups and downs in performance and this happens often. which means, not in every match these two strikers are able to consistently score goals. currently, these two players have a difference of two goals. which means, now Ronaldo has a competitor in terms of scoring goals in this competition. related to age, yes, however, that factor is very influential. but what is certain is that these two players are pure stickers who don't put much effort into setting the rhythm of the game. Their only task is to score as many goals as possible for their team, whether it's Ronaldo or Mitrovic. who are supported by other players, as their colleagues on the field.

Moreover, Ronaldo has proven that even though he is not as young as Mitrovic, he can lead as the top scorer so far even though he is only two goals ahead of Mitrovic. So, age doesn't really matter to Ronaldo, even though he's not as sharp as when he was young. Let's see who will be the top scorer until the end of this season. After all, the Saudi Pro League still offers lots of matches. and what is certain is that both teams play their matches, as strikers they will always try to score goals for their squad. What is certain is that Ronaldo is still above Mitrovic's ranking, the competition is still very long. Most importantly, these two stickers were not injured. Thus, the competition until the end will be very decisive for these two players. Let's just follow it, after all there are still 19 matches that will be played by these two teams as well as the available team squads.

Gabriel Jesus is no worth than Vlahovic. Actually I think they are at least equal in quality and I also think that a highly technically versed player like Jesus fits better into the team, the system and the style that Arsenal is playing. This could just be my taste and I wonder what everyone here thinks, but what did Vlahovic achieve in his career? Everyone thought he would instantly breakthrough at Juventus, but he isn't as strong as most people thought because he scored so many goals at a young age for Fiorentina. This doesn't mean he is bad, not at all, but we are talking about a player who went from Fiorentina to Juventus and got worse.

What kind of comparison do you mean for these two players, but let me interpret what you said.

It is clear that these two stickers have their own differences and advantages, with the talents they have. For me, the role of Gabriel Jesus is really needed by Arteta with the talent and abilities he has. In fact, this Brazilian player has very different skills and style from Vlahovic. Apart from that, Gabriel Jesus can play according to Arteta's needs. as we have seen, he is also often rotated and would ideally play on the wing. He is a hard worker and his job in the Gunners squad is not only to score goals, but he always tries to open gaps for his teammates to score goals. rotation and combination between G.Jesus, Martinelli and Saka, we often see it in each of their appearances.

Meanwhile, the striker from Juventus is Vlahovic. he is a pure sticker, his job is none other than scoring goals. If he joins a great or creative squad like Arsenal, Vlahovic is very suitable in my personal opinion. yeah, at least better compared to Nketiah. With Vlahovic's presence with the Gunners, Arteta has a sticker that he can play with as needed. Apart from that, there are still Trossard and Martinelli who can also be rotated according to Arteta's tastes and depending on the opposing team. So, the question is, whether he can play well if he joins Arsenal. at least yeah, because Arsenal actually needs pure stickers. although in fact, there are still many players who are more worthy than my own version of being a pure Gunners sticker.

Brighton vs Marseille.

Of the many matches that will be presented on matchday six, one of the matches between these two teams is quite interesting for me personally. This match will be held at the American Express Community's Stadium, Brighton's home ground. These two teams will both target full points, in order to be at the top of the group to get a ticket to qualify for the next round. which means, this match should present an exciting match. However, with the condition that both teams use an offensive system pattern. for De Zerby's squad, I won't doubt it because they need to win in this match.
For Gattuso's squad, I'm a little doubtful because they only need a draw to confirm their qualification for the next phase as group winners. So, there is a big possibility that Gattuso will get around it with multiple patterns. or, play a little deeper to strengthen the defense.

Uniquely, Marseille has not suffered a defeat even though two matches ended in a draw.
Likewise when these two teams met in the first leg at Marseille headquarters. the result of the match, ended with a score of 2-2.  In the sixth match day which will be held later, it will be a different match.
De Zerby will take advantage of the momentum of playing in front of his supporters and go all out. However, Marseille will not just let it go. which means they will also put up resistance.
For now, I don't want to speculate too far. However, referring to betting bookies, Brighton is more superior. But we will know for sure when the two teams meet on matchday six.

There is a great rivalry between Leverkusen and Bayern this season. I am also someone who sees Bayern Munich as having an advantage at the end of the year. Those who are close to the championship are Bayern Munich, but Leverkusen is not a bad team. We should not forget that Bayern won the championship in the last match last year. This year, the excitement may continue until the last match.
If by the end of the season the number of points between the two teams is the same, we have to look at the differences in other sectors and if the number of games between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen is the same along with the points. So the one who will be at the top is Bayern Munich, because the number of Goals Difference is still more than Bayern Munich. Just because Bayern Munich's number of matches is still fewer than Bayer Leverkusen, that's why the top position still belongs to Leverkusen at the moment.

We don't need to speculate too much about the end of this season, after all, Leverkusen will meet quite strong teams along the way. Next week, Bayer Leverkusen will play a match against Stuttgart. In this match, the match will be played at the MHP Arena, Stuttart's headquarters. this match looks like it will offer an exciting match, even though we believe that Leverkusen is much more competitive than the opposing team. However, it is not impossible that Stuttgart will provide an interesting challenge when these two teams meet.

We can also refer to betting odds, even though they are temporary, they can be used as a reference. Stuttgart with odds @2.95, while Leverkusen with @2.27. there is a slight difference regarding the odds provided by bookies. which means, the match has the potential for both teams to defeat each other or end in a draw.
On the other hand, if Bayern wins their match when they visit Frankfurt, Munich will automatically shift Leverkusen's ranking even though they have the same points. apart from that, Bayern has one postponed match and one meeting with Leverkusen.
The difference is, currently Bayern is stronger than in the first meeting. whether it's in the defense line, or from the goalkeeper side. So, the potential for Bayern Munich to shift Leverkusen's ranking is wide open. To ensure this, we just follow it when the match is held.

As for the competition for trophies this season, it will definitely continue. as long as the distance between the points from the top of the standings to the fourth level is not too far apart, this competition will still present an exciting competition.

Yes, Barcelona’s attack has not been very effective in recent matches, Xavi relies on defense, but this may not work against Girona, since they have a bad attack. Barcelona need a win to close their gap, but even if they lose, Girona will retain their position in the table, giving Real a good opportunity to extend their lead. The away game against Barcelona will be a good test for Girona, if they can win then they can stay in the title race.
Barcelona vs Girona won't be an easy game, we expects the best game for both sides this season, both team's manager's will not give up so easily, having bear the best match interests at heart. Xavi Hernandez faces another tough side this weekend, hoping to see a thrilling victory for Barcelona because it's clearly stated out that they're not in good shape, let alone win elite sides. If we rechecked the records, one will noticed how Barcelona have defeated Girona countless times and this is exceptional another chance for the Blaugrana to grab good points this season.

This match will be a tough battle for Girona, especially as they will defend their ranking as strongly as possible. however, that doesn't mean that Michel's squad is unable to break into Barcelona's goal, because Girona is also quite productive in terms of scoring goals. Plus, Barcelona's defense is not as good and solid as last season. however, because this match will be played at Camp Nou. which means, Barcelona is far superior to its opposing team. Moreover, based on the quality of the players, the two have quite a significant gap.
Uniquely, this match will bring together former Barcelona players, namely, Pablo Torre and Eric Garcia. Apart from that, in the last meeting last season, Barcelona was held to a draw by Girona at Camp Nou.

So, even though Barcelona is playing at their own headquarters, Xavi doesn't have to underestimate the opposing team. Moreover, as we know, currently Barcelona is experiencing a little problem on their front line, lacking effectiveness in terms of scoring goals. Likewise with Lewandowski, who has experienced a little difficulty when relied on to finish goals for his team recently. However, three points in this match is a mandatory result that they get in front of their own supporters. Moreover, referring to betting odds, the odds provided by the bookie present quite a large difference. However, because this match still has a time gap, we can discuss other matches besides the Barcelona vs Girona match.

Just like i said before Marseille was changing manager from Marcelino to Gattuso on September and Marseille owner actually has a target to Gattuso because they want Gattuso can able to bringing Marseille playing more consistent this season and compete for top 3 or champion league zone but in fact after 2 month managed this team Marseille is still not performing as expected and in Ligue 1 after through an 7 matches Marseille only able to gets 2 wins and they lose 3 times and currently Marseille has 10 difference points below to Monaco which is the team who in the 3rd place and in my opinion Marseille have to forget their target to tinish at top 3 or playing at champion league for next season because their contender just like Monaco and Lille has stable performance compared to them

More precisely, Gattuso has managed Marseille in 11 matches in various competitions. 5 wins, 3 draws 3 losses. but uniquely, Marseille performed quite well in the Europa League. they won 3 matches and 2 draws without losing in their 5 matches. In Ligue 1, it seems Marseille is having difficulty getting full points during their matches. There are always factors that cause them to be unable to win, one of which is lack of luck.
To be honest, I haven't followed the matches they play. I mean, watching the full Marseille match. However, when compared to Marseillo, Gattuso is much better in terms of system, pattern and philosophy. In fact, there are still many opportunities for Marseille to climb to fourth place in the Ligue 1 standings. After all, Marseille have only played 13 matches in Ligue 1. Gattuso's task to make this team solid is a serious challenge for them. at least next January, they need some newcomers

We'll see, how far this Italian coach takes his squad in Ligue 1. But if I have to compare with Igor Tudor, it's clear that I prefer Igor because he is more competent in my opinion. Unfortunately, Igor Tudor chose to part ways with Marseille. as well as several other players, such as Alexis Sanches, and several other players. As for Auba, he has not been able to prove his quality in this competition and has only scored 2 goals. but in the Europa League group phase, he has scored 5 goals. This week, Marseille will play a match against Lyon. It should be a momentum for them to get full points by winning the match.

In week 15, Luton will face Arsenal tonight, and in my opinion this will be an easy match for Arsenal to get 3 points even though they will play at Luton's home ground and will continue their victory.
However, after the match against Luton Arsenal have quite a tough schedule towards the end of the year. And they will face Aston Villa and Liverpool, two of the top four teams, as well as Brighton and West Ham United throughout December.

As you said, this match should be an easy match for the Gunners even though the match is being held at Luton headquarters. The reason is, these two teams have quite a significant gap both in terms of player depth and also in terms of standings. but considering that this match is a match that Arsenal should be able to handle smoothly. So, don't be surprised if Arteta will make some rotations of his players. I'm not sure exactly what Arteta will do in this match with his staring eleven, but it seems like the schedule is quite tight and they will face several strong teams. ideally, there will be several rotations that Arteta makes.

After this match, Arsenal will travel to Aston Villa's headquarters, even though Arsenal are above their level based on depth. However, they will also play matchday six as the final match in the Champions League group phase. Even though he is in a safe position, ensuring that he wins the group is Arteta's target. After that, Arsenal will play quite tough matches with opponents who can be said to be tough. but before that, the Gunner's young squad must get full points over Luton. The question is, will this match produce lots of goals from both teams? considering that Luton is quite weak in defense, at least the Gunners have to score two goals in this match. ideally, three goals. However, I cannot confirm who will be the center forward in the Gunners squad.

If I refer to the betting options, my estimate is that only Arsenal will score in this match. because referring to Under/Over, it does not show any indication of many goals. while the 1x2 option, Arsenal with @1.20 and while Luton @16.00. imagine if the home team wins this match, and we choose Luton. what a pleasure, winning the bet with odds @16.00. I feel quite doubtful that Arsenal will score more than three goals. But, it's a safe option to bet on Arsenal with a handicap of -1.75 with odds @1.85. maximum, 2 goals should be in their hands. If you are lucky, there will be 2 more goals as a result of the Gunners' victory. My estimate is that Arsenal will score 2 goals and if possible, more. that too if the scenario goes according to my estimation, so let's just wait and let's watch.

People/Gambler would really be just on two different types whether profit seeking or entertainment seeking.
/.../

People gamble for all sorts of reasons. Some folks are after that big win, while others just enjoy the excitement or hanging out with friends. Trying to put gamblers into neat little boxes just doesn't work. People are too complicated for that.


And that is the fact and reality. Basically, everyone who gambles always has various reasons. whether they are beginners, or gamblers like us who are very familiar with gambling. It cannot be denied, there are quite a few gamblers who are aiming for big wins, both ordinary gamblers, using various methods of gambling options. Likewise, rich gamblers bet with large bankrolls, so that the winnings they get are worth what they bet. in fact, we cannot prevent or prohibit someone from doing what he likes with his betting. everyone has their rights, and we have them too.
The idea of ​​gambling to enjoy the fun while hanging out with friends is something that is common, especially in land-based casinos. and there's nothing wrong with that, as long as they enjoy it and don't do any harm, everything is fine.

Interesting, is what you said, "People are too complicated for that". and that is our true nature as humans.
To the point above, "People/Gamblers would really be just on two different types whether profit seeking or entertainment seeking".

I do both. Apart from looking for fun, excitement, relaxation and so on, I also try to find luck in my gambling sessions.
Let's be realistic, this type of entertainment is expensive and risky, if you want to get rewards then it is a normal and natural thing. The difference between me and most other gamblers is that I focus on the gambling that I am good at, namely football. believe it or not, the probability that I can win is quite high. regarding the issue of winning or losing, is a common thing. Basically, if it's no longer fun, in other words, I lose. there is no other choice, namely, stop. for me, it's that simple.

That's right, many people like slot games because slot games don't require special skills, all you need to play slots is luck, the internet, and a device to play it.  but i personally don't really like slots because i don't have good luck when playing them, i actually really like sports betting because it requires analytical skills to be able to win the bet.  The thing that is quite dangerous about slot addiction is that we become debtors and our social relationships with those around us become bad, slots are fun but slot addiction is a disaster.

Addiction, whatever it is, is a disaster. both for the sufferer, or the parties closest to him. Talking about slot games, as you said, this game is actually very easy to understand and easy to play. does not require special skills, let alone involves skills. what we need is a set of tools such as a smartphone, PC or so on as a medium to play it. plus, an account and money as a means to start the game.

Honestly, I like slot games. especially, during times when I'm relaxed and I have nothing to do but have fun. as you said, we even agree that this type of game really relies on luck. Therefore, we as players have to be clever at playing it and getting around it. You don't have to always win, because obviously this game cannot be predicted at all. What we can do is use the time as needed. We can start from the lowest bet, increase it slowly and then lower the bet again. adjust it to the game session, and what we are playing. The focus is, we only play to fill our free time, with limited capital, do various variables and have fun with it for relaxation. If you are able to reach this stage, a person will not be trapped in excessive gaming, let alone making deposits again and again. Likewise with me, football betting is my favorite. However, slots can be a diversion and how do we respond and utilize them.

~~
Now I am angry at my friend because he didn't keep to his words. Although I am still happy about the win, I wish he had given me back the $10. Then, I would have win bigger money.

It's a bit funny what you said, especially regarding lending and borrowing. I want to ask, if your friend returns it on time will you still win your multibet bet. with the scenario, you have prepared the multibet betting options that you will do. or, you start the multibet option with the money you have. these are two different issues, because we can look at them from many points of view. the point, as you claim. If your friend returns it to you correctly, you can win big with your multibet bet. or it could be that you will choose another bet. in a sense, your choices change.

To be sure, I don't know for sure how and what happened. But what is clear is that you won the victory you deserved to win. There are no other words, if that's what you should get, you can't completely blame your friend. after all, you gave it to him yourself, because he is a friend of yours. So in essence, just accept what should be your victory. After all, if you are destined to get a big win or 1000x, your luck will never change. so please understand, and forgive your friend. Moreover, fellow gamblers who know the ups and downs of gambling.

Anyway, you can win your bet again if your prediction is good.

Man, the only hope Al Nasrr can have to reach Al Hilal is Al Hilal fall by his own, because there is not another possibilitie, the other teams in the league are very weak to cut points, so only 4 teams can steal some points from them.

For me personally, although Al Nassr has Ronaldo in the squad but yes, for me it still cannot be a guarantee for Al Nassr to be easy to get the trophy. Also, when I get the results about Al Hilal who managed to be unbeaten so far this season in the Saudi Pro League, then I think these results are a guarantee that Al Hilal has a very good chance of getting the Saudi Pro League trophy this season. What's more, Al Hilal managed to beat Al Nassr with a score of 3-0 and yes, that result makes me even more confident about Al Hilal in this season to get the trophy and they deserve it.

Al Hilal was one of the elite teams in this competition, before PIF acquired them. for a long time, this team has always dominated the Saudi Pro League. which means, this club is handled by competent management and staff within the Al Hilal camp itself. Let's refer to their current squad, well Al Hilal doesn't have the names of really famous players like Benzema with Al Ittihad, Firmino with Al-Ahli, Ronaldo and Mane with Al Nassr. It is true, Al Hilal also has foreign players, especially those who have played with European clubs. However, the names of the players in the Al Hilal squad are not as well-known as other teams.

The difference is, Al Hilal has a squad that is almost competitive in every line. That's why this team has performed well in the last 15 matches in the Saudi Pro League. Last season there were 16 teams competing in the Saudi Pro League, this season there are 18 teams. meaning, almost half of the League season has been running. btw, Al Hilal has just secured its position in first place in the AFC Champions League by overthrowing Mazandaran with a score of 2-1.

Anyway, there are still 19 games left if I try to count them from the list of meetings they will play until the end of the season. We don't know how consistently they will play their matches. and that doesn't mean Al Nassr missed an opportunity. After all, there's still a lot of fight left.
