Based on the statistics, you should know that Man City is still ahead and cannot be said to be completely bad. The absence of Kevin De Buyne did show many shortcomings but the final result was still the end result and they came out victorious even though it was obtained through the white point. KDB role cannot be replaced by anyone and Pep Guardiola has little choice but temporary options. The absence of KDB for a long time can also have an impact on results that are not optimal. As a whole Seville is a strong club and it is undeniable that its performance is able to withstand attack after attack launched by Man City.

Sevilla are a relatively strong team, but they are definitely not in the group of top clubs, which means that City should beat them more confidently than in the lottery.
For the game with Sevilla City quotes were 1.30 and the result was a draw, and for the game with Newcastle quotes over 1.60 means City will lose (i hope so)  Grin

This love of parties leads to the fact that for some reason only a few of the Brazilian top players can boast of sports longevity (to be honest, I can’t even remember who to name for example). And now we are seeing that Neymar (given all these patterns and trends) is actually ending a serious career. But he's only 31 lol! Maybe the Saudis think they just bought a top player who still has a couple of golden years ahead of him. But if Neymar behaves like a pre-pensioner, will they part amicably? Or will it be a shameful point in his career? Let's see.

The Saudi are the real party kings on this planet. There are some nice documentaries about how these guys can party. I guess I don't have to go into detail...

Since you guys opened up this topic, I am pretty sure that players like Neymar have their contract full of clauses and promises from the Saudi officials that they can literally do whatever they want for as long as things don't happen on a public street and officials would be forced to intervene. Neymar has called it a day many years ago.

But I am afraid that you are right with the term "pattern". More and more highly talented young players are making choices that they wouldn't have made two decades ago. The thrive for the best club to become the best and most recognized sportsman has now shifted towards a competition of who is going to be the most expensive and best paid player.

In the case of Neymar, just look at Messi and at what age he won the World Cup title that he deserved so much. But he worked much harder and more consistently for it than Neymar. Mbappe is the next on the list who is on his best way to waste a career, but he is French and won the  World Cup, maybe that is some comfort to him.

Mbappe has already lost some of his golden years at PSG, but he is still young and he can turn things around. In addition, he already has an amount of money that is difficult to count, and in general he has everything except satisfying his ambitions. Mbappe looks much more focused on football than Neymar and I don't fear for his career in that sense.

The fact that the chances are infinitely small is normal. After all, if you bet a dollar and can win 100 million, then it is obvious that in the most ideal case (when the lottery organizer does not bear any costs and does not take a cent for himself), your chances cannot be better than one in a hundred million. The RTP is a different matter and in lotteries it is recordly low.

The winning percentage of lottery will be low,but if you win then it will be big run.The probability of winning is the key source of the lottery.The lottery is surviving in various form in many countries.Some country had stopped the offline lottery,So the people of that country use the online lottery to find their luck.The organizer will fix the price based on the total amount of lottery was sold.By fixing their money of commission for one bumper they will fix the prize.The same process was followed in the online gambling,expect the people who buy will from all over the world.

It seems to me that lotteries still exist only because participation in them has become something like a tradition. In today's fast-paced world, it would never occur to anyone normal to buy a lottery ticket and then wait several weeks for the draw. I think that over time (when modern young people take the place of modern older people), lotteries will finally go into their narrow niche.

what does last bonus questions means, is someone can explain
it is which team is going to win first leg? not sure if that means first part of championship, leg could mean a match too

nevertheless, went with one team that should be secure to win it

good luck to all participants, and lets hope Leipzig can provide a good run to Bayern for title, not sure that Dortmund will be able to that as last year

I was also stuck on this question, but assumed that it was either the opening game or the first round game. And taking into account the fact that Bayern tomorrow plays the first separately from all the choice was not great  Cheesy
But actually I'm interested to know the correct meaning of this question.
As for the title, I am sure that with the acquisition of Kane, the issue is once again completely closed.

As far as I know, the advantage of the organizer of the lottery is much more than 20%, rather closer to 50%. And if we calculate the taxes that the winner has to pay, the RTP will be something like 10%. The lottery is the worst of all gambling games, but it has the highest multiplier. It is unlikely that any casino will be able to pay you hundreds of millions of dollars, but in the lottery it is possible.

And the chances are infinitesimally small and a lot terrible, too. There are tons of other gambling games out there wherein the RTP is more generous and the chances of winning are more reasonable. Multipliers don’t really mean anything if you can’t hit it that much. They’re just numbers on the screen working to lure gamblers to bet more to make them believe that they’re increasing their winning chances.

I guess I’d stick to casino games more than the lottery with these facts in mind.

The fact that the chances are infinitely small is normal. After all, if you bet a dollar and can win 100 million, then it is obvious that in the most ideal case (when the lottery organizer does not bear any costs and does not take a cent for himself), your chances cannot be better than one in a hundred million.

On the part of Neymar, this is of course the right decision, he never gave himself completely to football (by the way, as the current coach of Al-Hilal spoke about), and now he has completely sold his talent and money.
The only question is whether he can honestly work out this money? Or again, everything will turn into violations of the sports regime, unscheduled weekends to celebrate the sister's birthday, the Brazilian carnival, etc.

Are we going to deny that Brazilians loves party or maybe everyone are not happy for his choice of clubs and decision. I was one of the people that dislike his stay throughout in PSG and when he made the moves, Al-Hilal has the money and every agent want the best for his client, the more money the player has and priviledges, so does the agent, it can be assumed that Saudi Arabia are ready to spend heaven on earth for European players and that is why the negotiation ended with those incentives and he's worth it in my opinion. Those who will creticise will but if they are in similar position, they will do worse. Angry

The Saudi Arabia clubs want to have name and recognition of their leagues, the money is there, whoever deserves it is going to have it and the fact that Neymar made a two year contract is a wise decision, he can leave after his contribution for another club elsewhere.

This love of parties leads to the fact that for some reason only a few of the Brazilian top players can boast of sports longevity (to be honest, I can’t even remember who to name for example).

"Expected" is not the same as happening. PSG has long voiced its position and has been waiting for something for a long time, but nothing is changing  Grin
They may keep wanting more, but Mbappe is hardly stupid enough to be involved in a scheme that PSG needs but Mbappe doesn't need.
I did not understand about the rumors and Real Madrid. Real Madrid is ready to buy Mbappe at an adequate price or take him away for free in a year, do you doubt it?
Yes i do. I meant madrid has not even sent an official bid for him and how can we expect the club to buy him. Renewing the contract with PSG is even more sense compared seeing him to go to the real madrid.
Real madrid will be ready to take mbappe once he leaves from there with free agent. It reminds me so much talks about madrid prepared huge sum amounts of money for mbape but it has not proven. Mbappe is now starting to talk about the chance for PSG to win UCL this season.

Mbappe will make everything clear as soon as possible. So much news related to the to sign a new agreement with PSG already spread. I hope the new deal will be coming true.
Madrid has no choice other than buy him.

Why make a formal offer when PSG publicly announces the inadequate amount they want for Mbappe, and you can just wait for PSG (which is very interested in selling Mbappe) to moderate their appetites. You say that Real have no other choice but to buy Mbappe, can you justify your words with something? I see no reason why Real Madrid couldn't take Mbappe for free.

The current 2023/2024 EPL campaign, ofcourse its going to be tough one for elite clubs. We are open to know the necessary statistics of these clubs at the earlier stages but as times goes on, things vastly change, looking at the view of average clubs, they are big threats to elite teams, although they don't stand a chance but there's essentially what we called good luck in football. I've witnessed scenario where the elite club have higher hands to win the inferior team, but at the end of the day, results expected reversely turned. All this illustrations I tried putting together, will portray the weaknesses of Manchester City against Newark United.

The problem with the top clubs in the Premier League (you call them elite) is that there are too many of them. Even if we remove Tottenham, which finally became closer to the average clubs after the sale of Kane, then we still have: Liverpool, United, Arsenal, City, Chelsea and I think Newcastle is already there. But even if we remove Newcastle, there are 5 top clubs, and only 4 places in the Champions League. Thus, the one who takes the fifth place automatically becomes a complete loser, although it only lost to the other 4 top clubs.

Both the finalists are good teams and do have the potential to lift the trophy. One thing is for sure. The final is going to be a very close match. And the odds are also extremely close. I could get these odds from Stake.com:

Spain: 2.60
Draw: 2.75
England: 2.80

I don't necessarily agree with these odds, as I believe that England has a higher chance of winning. But I noticed that a majority of the sportsbooks have Spain as the favorites (although only by a small margin). Just made a bet in favor of England in Stake, as the odds looked attractive. In case Spain wins, then I will lose my money.  Grin

Have you bet on Double Chance? If not, then even in case of a draw you will lose your money  Wink
The quotes are really very close (which surprises me since I thought that England would be the favorite), maybe it's worth betting on BTTS? Or wait for the start of the game and place a live bet - in this option, you can get much more favorable odds.

I fully agree with your thinking, UEFA is making too many changes to an historic event, the champions league is and must remain only for European clubs, the Saudis have their own champions, everyone stays where they belong! I also don't like the new format of the champions league very much but I keep the considerations at the end of the 24/25 season to give an opinion. The Superleague has now faded but if it were to regain altitude I would be happy to support it, because UEFA's choices are massacring the world of football

The European Champions League is good (and I would say good only due to the fact) that the best players in the world play there and in fact it is like the World Champions League. After the Saudis began their expansion, this state of affairs is already disappearing. What can be done? Either unite or compete. It is impossible to compete under the auspices of UEFA, only the European Super League could compete financially with the Saudis. I support the idea of a Super League no matter how things go with the Saudis, I wouldn't even mind if there were a couple of teams from Saudi Arabia in the Super League.
3052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: August 17, 2023, 01:44:18 PM
I think City is overrated. At the moment we see that they couldn't beat Arsenal and they couldn't beat Sevilla (not the strongest team, right?). In their asset there is only a victory over Burnley, which can not testify to anything. Considering the odds and the absence of the KDB, I would rather bet on Newcastle (or Newcastle Double Chance) than City.

The main reason for Manchester City to get this rate is because of their performance in the last season and since they were stable in this transfer market, it's normal to see Manchester City with this rate.
However, regarding their performance against Sevilla, we know Sevilla is not a weak team and they beat many strong teams in the last season in Europe League while the performance of Manchester City in this game was not bad.

In other words, the City is quoted as such due to old merits. But on the field, old merits do not play and do not mean anything. And I do not agree that City played well yesterday - rather En-Neseri played badly and instead of scoring 2-3 goals, he scored only once. A more serious team can do better and Newcastle are looking very serious right now.

If Neymar refuses a proposal from an Arab club then there will be no more coming of the same proposal, European clubs are also not much interest except for other leagues besides Europe, in essence Neymar will get big money during a two-year contract, PSG is benefited.

Neymar has already officially moved to Al-Hilal. I won’t be surprised if PSG’s Arab friends are behind this transfer - firstly, PSG got rid of a too expensive football player, and secondly, they not only got rid of him, but even received money for the transfer and thus improved their business in terms of FFP. As for Neymar, it is certainly hard to see the career of the once most promising player decline at the age of 31. I wouldn't be surprised if he completely finished at 33.

Who the heck player didn't wanna get these things from joining in saudi club?

Quote
Al-Hilal will offer Neymar the following gifts for coming to Saudi Arabia:

• Bentley Continental GT
• Aston Martin DBX
• Lamborghini Huracán

The Brazilian has also ordered 4 Mercedes G Wagon's and a van of the same brand. 🇸🇦💰

He will have a driver and a 25 room mansion
https://twitter.com/DeadlineDayLive/status/1691783248567775387

The saudi club just treats him like a king. It will be so stupid if neymar was rejecting such offers. Even though neymar is one of the richest football player in the world, but i can't deny that if saudi club was giving so many facilities to him.

Didier Deschamps has a contract lasting until 2026. Even though it seems like quite much time I think the result of Euro 2024 can be decider for his future here. As you must have heard already Zinedine Zidane wants this job very much. Deschamps had better fight for the title as hard as possible in Euro 2024 to consolidate his place.

If France fail in winning the title and don't even reach the finale then I think Deschamps would be likely to be replaced with Zidane. Honestly I would like to see Zidane managing France in World Cup 2026.  Smiley  He is such a great manager that it would be nice to watch him manage the national team of his own country as well.

I do not think that if the French team only reaches the semi-finals, Deschamps will be fired. National team tournaments are short competitions and if there is no obvious failure (it is difficult to expect a failure from the French team with such a composition), then any result is acceptable. Zidane's pressure is great, but on the other hand, it seems to me that everyone is already tired of the fact that he does not work anywhere but is waiting for a "warm" place.

ПротонВПН тоже работает только на мобиле. На компе практически отвалился хотя пару дней назад случайно одно подключение произошло.
Насколько стабильно Ред Шилд работает? Иногда сбои или иногда работает? Держал их в уме и такие новости расстраивают.
Как бы осенью не начали вторую волну мобилизации с параллельным жёстким отключением интернета, похоже к этому все идёт.

Кстати, протонвпн на днях обновили свое мобильное приложение и убрали поддержку устаревших впн протоколов. По факту, сейчас в настройках доступны только smart, wireguard(tcp) и stealth протоколы. И лично у меня это обновление все испортило, т.е. к серверам протона удается подключиться, но при этом соединение к сайтами/приложениям не проходит.

Это какая версия? У меня 4.6.91.0 На мобиле изменений не заметил никаких.

This is one of the matches I'm looking forward to even though Manchester City are definitely the clear favourites in this match but I hope there's something more Newcastle can show in this match.
The odds on offer are also quite attractive as 1.64 for Manchester City makes quite a difference to the odds of 5.00 given to Newcastle.
But on the other hand, I think for this match the chances of either club winning is likely to be slim and I will be on Manchester City in this match.

Obviously I'm expecting something interesting from Newcastle as they are one of the biggest hopes to break back the big 4 which sometimes in some seasons the club is still the same.

I think City is overrated. At the moment we see that they couldn't beat Arsenal and they couldn't beat Sevilla (not the strongest team, right?).

If we can say about the first half that Sevilla was lucky to some extent, then in the first 15 minutes of the second half, Sevilla should have made the score 2-0. Right now they are just playing better than City and I don't understand what Guardiola is waiting for - where are the replacements? Or is he thinking of starting to correct the game at 0-2?
As usual, Sevilla is used to losing the Super cup to which ever club. I cannot remember when last Sevilla won the super cup or if they have won it before now. I didn't watch the match but checking the statistics, it seems that Sevilla was lucky to have scored the goal against Manchester City. The possession was like 72% to 28% in favour of Manchester City. The passes completed was very high on Manchester City compared to Sevilla. I was just thinking how Sevilla managed to stretch the match to penalty shoot ours.

The fact that we saw a series of penalties is the merit of El Nesiri, who missed a few true scoring chances.
In general, the result is natural, City was the obvious favorite, but I think that a draw in regular time destroyed a lot of multibets today (for example, my hehe). But I can't say that I'm upset - City looks weak and the season will be interesting.

The first 45 minutes of the Super Cup between Manchester City and Sevilla has gone and the second half has started and almost going to the middle and we have seen that Sevilla is leading Manchester City.
I am not seeing the match because I am away from home, but going to the internet to check the score. I was surprised realizing that Kevin is not in Manchester City midfield and I knew that there will be a problem. The squad that Manchester City has brought to this match is something that Sevilla can follow up squarely. So if Sevilla wins this match I will not be so surprised.

If we can say about the first half that Sevilla was lucky to some extent, then in the first 15 minutes of the second half, Sevilla should have made the score 2-0. Right now they are just playing better than City and I don't understand what Guardiola is waiting for - where are the replacements? Or is he thinking of starting to correct the game at 0-2?
