201  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: March 22, 2024, 03:14:23 AM
You are right, Real Madrid and Manchester City are the two favorites in the Champions League this season, but unfortunately they had to meet too soon in the quarter-finals. I was basically expecting Manchester City to play Real Madrid in the semi-finals, but that never really came true.

Real Madrid has home advantage in the first leg, while Manchester City will have it in the second leg. Manchester City already have experience beating Real Madrid, but they will never be able to do the same thing every season if Ancelotti has learned enough from his mistakes last season. I would certainly expect the opposite, I mean Manchester City must can beat Real Madrid in the quarter-finals this season.
Yes, I also agree with you. Both Man City and Real Madrid are in top form. In a narrow lane, Real Madrid and Man City faced each other again for the fourth consecutive season in the Champions League. The rematch between Real Madrid and Man City in the quarterfinals of this year's Champions League promises to continue to be a tense match. Man City will continue to defeat Real Madrid this season. In terms of player quality, Man City is still better. Although the talents of the two coaches are equal. Real Madrid can only be firm when they get the final piece of the puzzle, Kylian Mbappé. Only then will they dominate this Europe. Regarding the current squad, Real Madrid cannot overwhelm Man City.
Real Madrid is in good condition because they have perfect squad with all their mainstay players who have succeeded in enabling Real Madrid to achieve many wins in the previous few matches.
But on the other hand, Manchester City is also in very possible condition to beat Real Madrid because they have squad that really cannot be underestimated and Manchester City is really focusing on preparations for the quarter-final match later.
Hopefully, in the next almost 4 weeks before the match takes place, Manchester City will not have any problems that could harm them, such as players getting injured, because the first leg match is big opportunity for Manchester City to win by landslide.
Pep must be more careful in positioning his players for Premier League matches and he must be able to look after all the key players to avoid injury problems.

Real Madrid might be able to have additional performance with Mbappe but that will happen next season and this season they will only be the same as last season when they lost badly on the road to Manchester City.
I think the results of last season matches could happen again for this season quarter final.
Manchester City and Real Madrid are undoubtedly each other's tough opponents and neither team is behind in any aspect. Just as Manchester City can beat Real Madrid, Real Madrid can beat Manchester City, but the difference between these two teams is their home match. If a team can't do well at their home ground or can't win by a large margin, it will be difficult in their away match, so both teams will definitely give the most importance to their home ground match. Last season we saw that Real Madrid failed to perform well in their home matches due to which they performed worse when they went to Manchester City ground and this was the reason for their big defeat by Real Madrid against Manchester City last season.

I agree with you that home matches will decide which team we see in the semi-finals. In the previous season, the Madrid team did not play well in the home match against Manchester City. The match was a 1-1 draw. And in the away match, Madrid lost by a huge margin of 4-0. In 2022, Madrid lost the awya match 4–3, but they made a great comeback in the home match and qualified for the final by winning the match 3–1. The team that performed well in the home matches of the previous two seasons qualified for the finals.

Both Real Madrid and Manchester City are strong teams. The bonding between the players is strong and their coaches are very experienced. So it is impossible to predict now which team will qualify for the semi-finals.

Barcelona have the ability to win this match. In the last match against Atlético Madrid, the Barcelona players performed brilliantly. The team is in very good rhythm. On the other hand, PSG's performance is still completely dependent on Mbappe. If Mbappe plays well PSG has a chance to win, and if Mbappe doesn't perform well PSG has a very low chance of winning against Barcelona.
he certainly has the skills to win the match without problems, without a doubt
but it doesn`t seem as solid to me as it wants to appear, on the contrary
there is a lot of turbulence internally in my opinion and a team that is not in order internally cannot give its best
obviously this is a shame.. for me
In fact, PSG is not completely dependent on Mbappe. It's just that the best striker there is still held by Mbappe. And Mbappe's performance is also at his best at the moment. Even though his contract looks like it will end there, Mbappe seems to want to make happy memories at PSG. So he and his friends might even be ambitious enough to even beat Barcelona later. But on the one hand, I also see Barcelona starting to improve. The attack coordination shown by Barcelona in the match against Atletico Madrid was quite surprising because Barcelona seemed to have rediscovered their lost strength. But still, the quarter-final match between PSG and Barcelona is still quite difficult to predict. Because I feel that both of them have equal strength at the moment. Unless Barcelona can play with their maximum strength then Barcelona deserves to be the favorite.
Actually, both teams have good strength. Mbappe is an important trump card and I am sure they will use this trump card in the most correct way. For Enrique, Barcelona is a familiar team. He will analyze them well and find their shortcomings. Also, PSG's defense will have a lot of work to do in this match. They have to not give too many positions to Barcelona. I believe the French can pass the tour. Mbappe sometimes puts on a one-man show and helps the team rise to the next level. If such a day happens, it could be a terrible match for Barça.
Yes, it's true that both of them almost have an equal performance and the other teams that will compete in the UCL all have equal opponents so it's difficult to predict who will win this match, Barcelona's goal rate is improving and Lewandowski has found his rhythm again, as well as PSG who have their flagship striker and I'm sure Mbappè will definitely make things difficult for the Barcelona players because we all know what Mbappè's speed is like, I actually support Barca more in this round but if you look at the chances it seems 50/50.

If Barcelona are to win against PSG, they will need to keep their defense tight and stop Mbappe. Barcelona have no chance of winning if they can't stop Mbappe. PSG is a fairly stable team now. But even then, the team is most dependent on Mbappe to score goals. Barcelona will have a chance to control the match if they can resist Mbappe.

Lewandowski is in good form right now. Raphinha, Felix and Lewa can perform well and Barcelona have a chance to win against PSG. However, Barcelona's defenders must play well. If the defenders do not perform well, it is not possible to counter a team like PSG with only good performances from the attacking players.
203  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: March 21, 2024, 03:15:41 AM
Girona's performance has indeed declined. it wasn't as consistent and strong as it was at the start of the season. This match was the fifth defeat in the 29 matches that have been played.
Even though the point difference between Bilbao and Atletico Madrid is quite large, if Girona continues to perform like that, they may be moved from the top 4 of the standings.
if they want to keep it, they have to work hard now. finishing in the top 4 will be history for them with a ticket to the European Champions League.
I think it would be a very bad story if Girona went on a losing streak and they dropped out of the top 4. It was something many people didn't expect. Girona has the respect of all La Liga fans because as a mediocre team they are surprisingly able to be in first place for several weeks, and hopefully they can qualify for the Champions League next season. So the bad performance in the last few matches must be an evaluation material for coaches so that they can maintain their position for now. The 7 point gap from Atletico Madrid is quite far, but with 7 games remaining I'm afraid Girona will fall out of the top 4 if they continue playing like this.

This is nothing but bad luck for Girona. But it is likely to happen. Girona have had a great start to the season. They consistently won every match and held the top spot in the table for a long time. Such a performance from a team like Girona surprised us a lot. But we haven't seen better performances from Girona in recent matches. Girona have lost 3 of their last 5 matches.

Girona team is 7 points ahead of Atlético Madrid, which is in fifth place in the points table. If the performance of Girona's players is somewhat stable, it will be very easy for them to qualify for the top four of the table. Girona's opponents are not very strong in the upcoming matches. Girona will end the season in third place in the table if the performance is stable.
I think it's not about Girona's bad luck, but the fact that teams have already adapted to their style of play. You correctly noted that Girona started the season perfectly, gaining points in every match and up to the defeat 0:4 from Real also everything was not bad, but then Girona players got tired, the bench apparently does not allow Girona to play the whole season in La liga at the same high level, and the other teams are no longer afraid to play with Girona and realized that they can also win.
Third place will certainly be a huge success for a team like Girona, but I'm afraid next year Girona will not repeat such success as it was this season, especially if Girona sell their best players or do not buy a couple of top players for next season.

Girona's players lost confidence after the big defeat against Madrid. And the scenario changed quite rapidly after that. Girona lost their winning streak. And their performance is no longer stable. Even relatively small teams will be confident now against Girona and earn points.

However, Girona's main goal now is to qualify for the Champions League. This is the honor for them. I don't know if the Girona team has ever qualified for the Champions League in the past. Probably not. So now Girona will try to stay in the top four of the table.

I don't think Girona will be able to perform as well with this same squad next season. However, if Girona strengthen their squad and add to the squad of talented players, they are likely to stay at the top of the points table next season.

Past experiences help us become a lot more mature, there are things that I used to blame a lot on my journey into crypto, scams are quite frequent but it only increases patience. I sold bitcoin for cash in 2013, but at the time I wasn't aware of how special bitcoin was, and over time I didn't regret it but rather grew attached to the market.

Taking advantage of the opportunities in the bitcoin space depends on each of us, from micro to macro factors, we are all part of the space, the stage has some happy people and some sad people.

Those who still blame or criticize fraudulent projects every time they lose money, they will continue to lose more because of their stubbornness when it is their own fault. If they are not greedy to invest in projects that promise high profits, how can anyone scam them?

Congratulations on becoming more mature with your experiences in the market. Only when we grow up and stop blaming others can we make a profit and survive in this harsh market. Don't blame others, always get up after every fall, if anyone can do that, they will definitely make a lot of profit in the market.
205  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Bank - Safely store your bitcoin on: March 20, 2024, 10:12:32 AM
Many investors even use them not only to trade but also to store their bitcoins even though this goes against the decentralized nature of bitcoin.
The risk of using centralized exchanges to store your coins is not in that it goes against the decentralized nature of BTC, but that it puts the coins you store in there at risk. Centralized exchanges confiscate people's funds for any reason at all and they also use customers' money to fund their own businesses, and so they can lose it at anytime and lead to exchange to bankruptcy.

I understand what you are saying but we need to admit one thing. Even if we issue millions of criticisms and warnings about the potential risks of centralized exchanges, investors will continue to use them. Even whales and big investors use centralized exchanges for their investment work, how can we fight against that crowd? Additionally, I believe that even small investors like us know the risks of centralized exchanges, so there is no reason why whales don't know that. But why do they still use them? They will definitely have a reason for what they do.

If you have ever literally lost a hundred bitcoins, you are the unluckiest person ever to come to this point. But you mentioned that you got free bitcoins but as far as I know no free bitcoins were given in any event maybe you were given some other coin instead of bitcoins which has no value in the market. But if you're sure it wasn't a coin other than Bitcoin, you'll have to believe it. But a few years ago when the price of Bitcoin was good enough if you receive 100 Bitcoins in your wallet why you are not aware of your wallet. Even at that time, since the value of Bitcoin was very high, if you were aware at that time, you might have kept your Bitcoin safe.

Is getting bitcoin through a faucet years ago considered free? And when it first launched, bitcoin had no value at all and as I heard, every time bitcoin was distributed, some people even received 5BTC each time. Furthermore, in 2009 and 2010, bitcoin was the only cryptocurrency in the world, so I don't think the OP couldn't distinguish whether it was bitcoin or altcoin.

OP is not the only person who lost bitcoins, and that 100 bitcoins is not the largest number ever lost. It seems like you're doubting the story but if you check his account he's been here since 2013 so it could be a true story.
In 2009 and 2010 the first bitcoins hit the market and maybe the OP is not talking about 2009 or 2010 he is talking about a few years back when he got 100 bitcoins for free and he lost those bitcoins. If the OP was talking about four or five years from now, I'd still say that the value and popularity of Bitcoin at that time was substantial, and that the chances of getting Bitcoin for free at that time were very low. But if the OP claims that he got 100 free bitcoins around 2009 or 2010 then we must believe it because that happened at that time and a lot of btc was given to accounts on certain sites. But maybe there is no point in regretting what he lost because if he regrets he might not get back his lost 100 btc he should have been careful and taken the matter seriously.

If I remember correctly, in 2013 bitcoin was worth hundreds of dollars so it was a myth that someone would get 100BTC for free. I think he's talking about 2009, 2010.

And I completely agree with you that many people spend too much time thinking about the past and feeling regretful about things that they will never have the chance to fix. Reminiscing and regretting only waste time and kill our will. Instead, see it as a lesson and find a way to fix it so we don't have to regret it later. Accumulating bitcoin from now on is the only way to correct all the past mistakes we have made.

PSG has Mbappe, Mbappe has the ability to score a lot of goals. On the other hand, Barcelona's Lewandowski is a very experienced player. Lewandowski has the ability to break down PSG's defence. So considering the squad I cannot consider a particular team as favourite.

PSG coach Luis Enrique is well aware of Barcelona's gameplay. He knows very well how Barcelona plays the game tactically. And I would say this is Barcelona's main weakness. Xavi will have to apply a different match strategy if he wants to beat PSG. Otherwise, Luis Enrique's side will not win Barcelona against PSG.

You are right, Xabi and Luis Enrique are students and teachers. And in this match Xavi will definitely try to prove that he was a worthy student of Luis Enrique Wink.

Luis Enrique is very experienced compared to Xavi this is true. But Xavi cannot be underestimated. Last season he won the La Liga title with Barcelona. The situation in Barcelona was very weak and shaky. He has been able to stabilize this team. So I would say Xavi has the ability to beat a PSG team.

Barcelona's match strategy is quite good. Barcelona players also performed well against Atletico Madrid in the last match. The PSG vs Barcelona match will be very competitive. It is impossible to predict which team will win. Both teams have equal chances of winning.
PSG has many reliable attackers in its squad, that is an advantage that PSG has compared to Barcelona. Meanwhile for Barcelona, ​​this team is being built with good confidence to finish this season with the best results. Xavi will try to convince his squad that PSG can still be beaten regardless of the depth of the squad they have.

This challenge must be accepted inevitably and both coaches will try their best. Luis Enrique has experience in winning titles with Barcelona, ​​but Xavi has also done it as a player. Both coaches will compete as best they can, but I think Barcelona has a slightly lower chance than PSG of qualifying for the semifinals. Whoever can win that match will probably qualify for the final, PSG or Barcelona.

PSG have reliable attackers in their squad, but the team is still dependent on Mbappe. Barcelona squad has some excellent players like Felix, Raphinha and Lewandowski. Considering the strength of the squads of the two teams, both the teams seem to be almost equally strong. I don't see a chance to say that PSG's squad is stronger than Barcelona's.

I would say this match will basically be Xavi vs Luis Enrique. The coach whose match strategy will be good, and who will be able to find the opponent's weaknesses and create the right match strategy, will win this match. Luis Enrique is experienced. Looking forward to see how Luis Enrique prepares his match strategy against his student Xavi.

Barcelona have the ability to win this match. In the last match against Atlético Madrid, the Barcelona players performed brilliantly. The team is in very good rhythm.

Its become mini reunion the quarter final Champion League match between Barcelona vs PSG, Luis Henrique will face his former teams with the most successful by winning UEFA Champion League and La Liga trophies.
Become the battle teacher and student between Luis Henrique and Xavi Hernandez. Talking about experienced, actually Luis Henrique have much experienced than Xavi Hernandez but he was success with La Liga tittle since Barcelona have internal financial problem.

I think can't blame with less experienced from Xavi Hernanez because his tactical worth it right now with Barcelona regarding his team get financial problem but keep dominance in La Liga and qualifying to quarter final of Champion League. Left three weeks later for the first leg but I have bad feeling with international break out this week, will any players got injury after returning from their national teams?

You are right, Xabi and Luis Enrique are students and teachers. And in this match Xavi will definitely try to prove that he was a worthy student of Luis Enrique Wink.

Not a problem, you should try to create your own Bitcoin banks, just like someone creates Wrapped Bitcoin, centralized entity creates Bitcoin ETFs, people who create their own centralized exchanges etc. All of them exist despite decentralization is the most important thing in Bitcoin and it no one forbid to use those fake/centralized entity over real Bitcoin. So, in order to know if your idea is good or not, you need to build it.

Well said, to know if your idea is good or not, OP should build it, don't give up your dreams or plans just because of people's opinions. Like centralized exchanges, thousands of people complain and criticize them, but millions still use them, they still have a large customer base. Many investors even use them not only to trade but also to store their bitcoins even though this goes against the decentralized nature of bitcoin.

OP, the use of CEX is not encouraged or supported, but as you can see, they are the largest growing entity in the market.

The Barcelona VS PSG is another key match and I’m strongly believing PSG will be able to have the edge against this Barca side this time. Psg are seeking to achieving something this season and I wouldn’t be surprised seeing them in the finals again.
Before the draw ceremony for the quarter-finals, I hope PSG will meet Real, this will be a match that will bring more stories that fans will wait for. PSG vs Barcelona is also an attractive match, between a star-studded team and a Barca with extensive experience in the UCL Cup. If PSG can go deep and win the UCL championship, it would certainly be a great reward for Mbappe and his teammates, but this possibility is not high because their squad is still not really stable and belongs to Mbappe so much. To tackle Mbappe, the teams in this quarter-final are more than capable of doing this.

Fans are eagerly waiting for this match. Barcelona team is slightly more experienced than PSG in the Champions League. But let's not forget PSG's coach is Luis Enrique. I am looking forward to see Enrique VS Xavi fight. Enrique is experienced, but Xavi is talented.

Liverpool vs Atalanta, shouldn't be a game to contemplate about because the winner have been clearly aligned out, automatically we will watching the Italian side getting eliminated because there's no solid handing they're capable of implementing. Jurgen Klopp is in his last days at Liverpool and he's making sure he embraced good results for the club. Atalanta won't even stand a chance of draw tie in the first leg because it's Anfield and we know the direct message.
Liverpool has the advantage in terms of consistency and the potential to win matches with the squad they currently have. Because Atalanta is in poor performance this season, so I am also not sure Atalanta can stop Liverpool who are in peak performance in the UEL this season. A convincing win over Sparta Praha will have a positive effect on Liverpool players to win the next match. On this match, at Anfield stadium will make their path easier to face the 2nd leg.

Compared to Atalanta, Liverpool are undoubtedly the stronger team, and favorites in this match. But often we see underdog teams perform well against favorites and win. Moreover, in the round of 16, Atalanta team qualified for the quarter-finals with a win against a strong team like Sporting. So I don't see any chance of underestimating this team now. Undoubtedly, the Atalanta team is playing to win the title.

Liverpool is a strong team. And we usually see the Liverpool team competing for the Champions League title. I am not sure if Liverpool will give full effort for the Europa League title. Still the most important title for Liverpool is the Premier League title.

Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka, 3rd ODI match, Sri Lanka scored 235 runs in the first innings. In today's match, the Sri Lankan team did not score many runs in comparison and as they did in the two matches, not so many runs were scored in this match. Sri Lanka team batsman Janith Liyanage scored a great century mainly due to his batting performance which made it possible to give such a huge target. All the other players of the Sri Lankan team did not perform very well due to which they scored 235 runs in today's match. However, if the Bangladesh team has to give the ODI series at the moment, then they must meet the target of 236 runs, then they can win the series. And today's match will definitely be great between two teams as both teams will fight for the win and I think today's match can be sure win for Bangladesh.

The two openers of the Bangladesh team got off to a great start today. Two new batsmen are opening today. Anamul Haque and Tanzid Hasan are opening for Bangladesh today. Tanzid hasan joined the squad today as Liton's replacement.

Tanzid is batting well today. After 7 overs, Bangladesh managed to collect 43 runs. Bangladesh did not lose a single wicket. Tanzid scored 37 runs off 26 balls and Anamul scored 6 runs off 16 balls.

Sri Lankan batsmen are not playing well today. Sri Lanka has given a target of 236 runs in 50 overs. It cannot be called a big target. The way Bangladesh's two openers are batting, Bangladesh may win today's match easily.

Afghanistan  vs  Ireland

After the defeat of Afghanistan in the previous match, we thought that Afghanistan will make a comeback in today's match. And the series will also be won by Afghanistan. But our assumption was completely wrong.

Afghanistan's batsmen are batting badly today, I have never seen such bad batting from Afghanistan in the past. At the end of 4 overs, Afghanistan's batsmen have collected only 14 runs, the important thing is that Afghanistan has already lost 4 important wickets of the top order. Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, Ishaq and Omarzai are all experienced players for the T20 format. But like the previous match, they batted very badly in today's match as well. Mohammad Nabi and Sadiqullah Atal are now at the crease. Scoring 100 runs is now challenging for Afghanistan.
In the second T20 match Afghanistan's outstanding performance by winning ten runs against Ireland and levelling the series by 1-1. Afghanistan Captain lead from the front Player of the Match is Rashid Khan Afghanistan Captain for his all-round batting and bowling performance in this match. Rashid Khan brilliant bowling spell picked 4 important wickets by just giving only 14 runs in 4 overs and also batt well scored crucial 25 runs from just 12 balls and reached Afghanistan total to 150 plus runs against Ireland.

Even if Afghanistan win this match, I am not satisfied with their performance. Afghanistan are undoubtedly very experienced and strong in T20 format. Every player in the Afghanistan squad has been performing regularly in almost all the franchise leagues. So Afghanistan players are more experienced than Ireland players in T20 format. However, Afghanistan's top order batted very poorly. If Mohammad Nabi and Rashid Khan did not play well, Afghanistan would not have won this match.

Afghanistan will play against Ireland in the third and final match of the series today. Afghanistan will naturally be considered favorites as they are more experienced. However, the performance of Afghanistan players has been erratic in recent times.

Afghanistan  vs  Ireland

After the defeat of Afghanistan in the previous match, we thought that Afghanistan will make a comeback in today's match. And the series will also be won by Afghanistan. But our assumption was completely wrong.
To be honest Afghanistan were going with one of thier worst form because they continuously losing important matches at recent time which is quite disappointed but now they are making changes by shuffling different names in order to build a strong Line up, it's true that current performance of them are quite off colour but hope things will be settled down well in upcoming future, Anyway Afghanistan top order and some middle order batter again complete failed again a normal bowling lineup and giveaway his wickets quite easy while just the aged experienced guy Nabi scored and through his contribution they just scored 150 around target which is not enough against previous match winner team also thier in form batter Balbirnie are still on crease so for Afghanistan to be in the game they should dismissed this guy otherwise things will be out of thier hand because target isn't enough to be defended till they didn't delivered extra ordinary performance

I would say Afghanistan are very lucky to win this match. The team lost four wickets for just 14 runs. Still managed to collect big due to excellent batting by Atal and Nabi. Rashid Khan's innings of 25 off 12 balls was also much needed.

Ireland's top order batted well. Balbirne scored 45 runs, but his batting was very slow. Balbirne collected 45 runs from 44 balls. However, Afghanistan won the match due to Rashid Khan's brilliant bowling. Rashid Khan gave only 14 runs in 4 overs and took 4 important wickets. The series is now tied at 1-1. The last match is expected to be more competitive.

Mohammad Nabi and Sadiqullah Atal are now at the crease. Scoring 100 runs is now challenging for Afghanistan.

Afghanistan batting well in the fifth wicket pair. And why the team has not lost a wicket yet. After 10 overs, Afghanistan managed to collect 68/4. Mohammad Nabi and Sadiqullah Atal are batting very responsibly. Sadiqullah scored 22 off 21 balls and Nabi remained unbeaten on 33 off 24 balls.

As Afghanistan was batting badly in the first 5 overs, if the Sadiqullah-Nabi pair did not play well, the team would have lost all the wickets before collecting 100 runs. Afghanistan collected only 20 runs in 5 overs. And Afghanistan collected 48 runs in the next 5 overs. Afghanistan have a chance to win if they can provide a target of 140.

Despite losing 4 wickets for just 14 runs, the Afghanistan team managed to set a huge target of 154 runs. The pairing of Sadiqullah Atal and Mohammad Nabi was very effective. These two batsmen have done excellent batting at the time of need for the team. Afghanistan collected 79 runs from this pair. Nabi was dismissed with 59 runs off 38 balls and Sadiqullah managed to score 35 runs off 32 balls.

Rashid Khan batted well in the last minute. He collected 25 runs in just 12 balls. And because of this innings, the Afghanistan team was able to give the target of 152 runs. A target of 152 runs is a big enough target on this pitch. Afghanistan is more likely to win this match.

Juventus  0-0 Genoa

Juventus' situation is very bad now. In the last few matches we have seen poor and erratic performances from Juventus players. However, it was expected that the Juventus team could perform well against Genoa today. Because the performance of the genoa team is also weak now. But even in today's match, Juventus was not able to perform well. The match was a goalless draw.

I think a lot of gamblers lost their money in today's match. Everyone expected Juventus to win the home match of Juventus. Although Juventus dominated the match, they could not score any goals. A total of 17 shots were made by Juventus players, but only one of them was on target. Genoa played a defensive strategy from the start of the match. And their aim was to draw the match.
Juventus' erratic performances and poor introduction of the game have disappointed the spectators. For the last few matches juventus have been playing very badly and leaving the match we have seen them play very badly in the last match too and draw the match and drop the points. Didn't perform very well against Genoa which led to a draw instead of a win, anyway they are far behind this season, so I think Juventus has no chance of winning the title this season. Inter are far ahead in the points table this season, they are in the top position with 75 points, while Juventus are in the second position with 59 points, still a gap of many points. But many players did not win their bets rather they lost, mainly it was the lack of play of Juventus due to which they could not win in their own field. Genoa have performed well enough to keep Juventus from scoring any goals, however if Juventus play worse this season they will drop places as Milan are behind them.

Probably many gamblers bet on Juventus win in this match. And they lost money. Juventus were favorites in this match. I didn't bet on Juventus because the performance of this team is very erratic in the last few matches. So I didn't take any risk in this match.

Overall performance of Juventus players was not good. They attacked a lot, but they could not make a powerful attack. Despite a total of 17 shots, only 2 shots were on target. Juventus players dominated the match. However, they could not win the match due to the weakness of the attacking players. Another important point is that Dusan Vlahovic received a red card in the last minute of the match. He will not be with the squad for the next match against Lazio.
