If I remember correctly, both the franchises (Pune Warriors India and Kochi Tuskers Kerala) were removed by the BCCI after they failed to make the franchise fee for the year 2012. For Pune, the owner was jailed and the franchise was facing financial issues, while for Kochi there was a dispute among the owners. But the point to note here is that the franchises were suspended only in 2012, and the pending dues date back to 2011. And even after the suspension of the franchises, the BCCI did nothing to help the players.

I think Koeman will stay for one more season. Right now there are no good coaches available. Ideally, you can invite Guardiola, but this will depend on the result of the Champions League final. If he wins, he may move to Barcelona.

Italy is the undisputed favorite in Group A. In order to determine the runner-up, Turkey is marginally favored because they will have home advantage against Wales and Switzerland.

In Euro 2020 qualifying, Belgium comfortably defeated Russia in both home and away matches, therefore they are favorites. Denmark will also have home advantage in all of their group matches, so I think they are the presumptive runners-up.

No surprises in Group C, and I agree with your prediction. The Ukraine is a worthy adversary and should have no major issues against Austria.

Scots are in a tricky group. It is unlikely they'll beat England or Croatia, and they could face a close match against the Czech Republic. Even getting a point on the board would be a good result.
I think England and Croatia will qualify from Group D.

I believe Spain is the favorite in Group E, with Sweden and Poland vying for second place.

Among all the groups in this tournament, Group F might be the most uncertain. In my opinion, Le Bleus are one of, if not the best teams in the world therefore are favorites in the group. Both Germany and Portugal should defeat Hungary, despite the difficult task, and will battle for second place.

hey lafu. you write that köln otherwise plays good football. if they really played good football, they wouldn't have finished 16th in the bundesliga.
they saved themselves from relegation on the last match day. If they played good football, they would need a place in the midfield of the Bundesliga.
but maybe they will win the second leg in kiel. but then the team will have to improve 100%.

It will be too much to expect from a team which is currently at the 12th spot, to get promoted to the 5th. And from what I have heard, their next ODI series is against England and India (the latter one looks doubtful though), and getting enough wins from these series will be very tough. But fortunately this league stretches to 2023, and therefore Sri Lanka has probably enough time and matches in hand to secure their promotion to the top-8. Playing in the qualifying tournament can be quite humiliating.

There we have it - Bangladesh have absolutely bossed this, and tamed a hapless Sri Lankan side here, to achieve their first bilateral ODI series win against them, such that they can play that "perfect game" in the third ODI with all the freedom in the world.

You're right, villareal is a great team. Just look at some of the matches that have occurred, the villareal was able to draw against MU. The match this time may be the same even though I slightly favor MU to win. In Villareal's last match in LaLiga, they managed to make it difficult for Real Madrid to even lose before the draw.

Last year MU had a bad history in the European league, they also lost to the Spanish representative Sevilla. Maybe tomorrow is a revenge mission with MU but they have to be vigilant.

Kane is the best choose for Real Madrid but they have serious with Mbappe or Haaland, how ever third player have fantastic value and almost their club never sell with lower price. How ever Kane will left Tottenham Hotspur because almost every years always failed get trophy and many player left Tottenham success on new their club and get trophy.

It's not just about team unity. I think if you buy a player for 117 million euros, pay 31 million euros on a contract and not really depend on him, then it's a little bit strange and wasteful. On the contrary, I believe that the main problem of Juventus is that the team does not use Ronaldo well as a player and his opportunities, and this is the main reason for the failures of Juventus in the championship and in the Champions League. With all due respect to the Juventus squad, the Real Madrid squad was much better suited for Ronaldo in terms of players, the whole team played for him and therefore there were such great results for both the club and the player. It has already become a byword to watch Ronaldo sink closer to the center of the field during the match in search of a pass. Therefore, if Juventus wants to depend less on Ronaldo, then it is better for the club to part with the player and bet on others.

This is a Champions League final. So I never take things for granted. Everything can happen. Chelsea beat Manchester City in this season 2 times in 3 games. I'm sure that Manchester City won't underestimate them here of course. But they should be really careful.

Lille have been crowned Ligue 1 champions after winning against Angers and this is their first title in 10 years breaking the PSG supremacy where the time from Paris won 2-0 at Brest but needed a slip-up from leaders Lille and that was not forthcoming.
Congratulations to Lille and to those who decided to bet on them winning the leauge.

I hope cloudbet enables instant payments because it was one of the reasons I left betting there. The transactions, especially withdrawals, are slower than any other casino and sportsbook I have ever played at. I tried to ask live support and even he could not help, I had to wait 24 hours almost and after that, I decided to stop playing. I am glad to see new coins being added but hopefully, these new coins and DASH can bring speed to the transactions.

By the way guys you can ask live support about bonuses because I had no bonus given to me since I joined despite losing a lot of money and gladly enough they gave me a bonus when I requested the live support, although it came with 10x wagering requirements are some weird rules like You cannot bet with those funds on the same match twice, so if you made a bet, that's it for the match. And minimum odds was 1.9 or 1.8 I think.

Leicester lost their ticket again in the final day of season. Sadly to see how they ended this season like this.

The Premier League have the same ending as Serie A. Big clubs have their tickets to Champions League. Chelsea have a bad day but they got a gift from Leicester City and Liverpool did their works well with an excellent match from Sadio Mane. That player has a bad season but in the last match, his double goals help The Kop have a happy ending.

Jamie Vardy will be older next season and I don't think Leicester City will be able to compete for top 4 in the next season. Maybe some clubs like Tottenham and Arsenal will come back and Leicester will have to play in Europa League again.

If there are any supporters of Juventus here - I wish them a win tonight, but only if Napoli and Milan win their matches. All jokes aside - I expect tonight Atalanta - Milan to be decided not on the field, unfortunately. It is known who runs the Italian federation. Mialn is the best away team and we definitely will have our chances. Marani will referee the game tonight and with him Milan has 7 or 8 wins.

On the other side Napoli could win easily but they have the habit of losing points against teams like Hellas Verona.

There is also a possibility Chelsea finish 5th in the Premier League and lost in the final of the Champions League too.

The final Premier League games of the season will kick-off in around 15 hours time, we will see which two of the following qualify for the Champions League: Chelsea, Liverpool and Leicester City.

May the best two teams qualify and join Manchester City and Manchester United in the Champions League next season


There is no anti-Chelsea agenda here  

I'm happy for Luis Suarez also. He scored the goal that have brought the championship to his team. And he ended the league by scoring 21 goals. Considering he is 34 years old, it is a really good job for him. Barcelona must be regretting that they have sold him.

I also think that the game will not be easy for Dortmund. Leverkusen defeated them 2-1 in this season before. However, Leverkusen have nothing to lose also. They are going to end the league as the 6th. And they have important missing players like Alario, Bailey and Amiri. I don't think that Dortmund will waste this opportunity. I expect them to destroy Leverkusen and maintain their place with score difference in the worst case.

I cannot sit glued infront of my laptop or my mobile the whole day to watch County cricket. There are other things that can be done to pass time. If you are someone who loves sports and cannot live without it and then you should go ahead and watch it.

Did you read Verstapenn this the wall every year? Because I think it's true.
In race or practices, he always hit and destroyed a car.

Its an unpredictable track, its pure gamble.

Thanks for the heads up, i've just submitted my predictions on the free pool and I might join the rookie tier as well since there's only a few participants.

Looking forward to the next set of promotions specifically the NBAxNHL prediction contest.
