Final Score Real Betis 1-4 Barcelona Messi scores yet again another hat trick.
Earlier today Valencia had a goalless draw against Getafe.
It was a 10/10 performance for Messi and Suarez too I'd say, both players were really in form tonight, Messi with 3 fantastic goals, a free kick, then a stunner. Suarez also seem to be back in great form with back to back impressive performance.

I believe Barca will field their best eleven today. They lost from Betis 4:3 in the first match this season on their own field. It is time for revenge Also, you have to remember that next week we have international break so they don't have to rest players. They can let the national teams worry about that. Indeed man! Magical Messi has also come to the party, an absolute wonderful display of football from him yet again! 65 mins gone, Barcelona are 3 goals ahead, 3 points secured!

Tomorrow's advance pick - Heat -3.5 vs Hornets +3.5
This is going to be an epic match up, both teams are fighting for the last spot in the East , so expect some good game . Heat loss in their previous game against the Bucks and that makes me think that they will bounce back and will win this game, hopefully double digit.
They are the home them, they should have the advantage, and I hope Wade will play tomorrow.
Pick - Heat -3.5
I'm tailing, I agree with you on this, although I'll be going for Heat - 4.5 to get a 2.04 odds, compared to - 3.5 @ 1.94 Bet won! Congratulations to everyone who tailed! Good performance from Dragic and Wade with 19 and 17 points respectively, The game happened to be a very close and low scoring one until the 4th quarter, 39 points each at halftime is lowest scoring fixture I've witnessed this season.

Up next, Everton vs Chelsea. Huge game for Chelsea, a win today means 4th place (tied with Arsenal).
This was probably one of the most important matches for Chelsea and it looks like they lost it. Chelsea still has good chances of getting that 4th place until the end of the season but they have to play 2 tough matches against Liverpool and United both being away for home so their only option remains winning Europa League. They had a terrible 2nd half, despite being the better side at half time, I think winning the Europa league will be easier for them, than them finishing in top 4 in the EPL this season.

Same as the Champions League poll, you can vote until the final. I will edit the poll as we advance into the tournament so you'll be able to edit your vote. Here is the link to the discussion thread of the Europa League : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5103973I chose Chelsea simply because they'll have the easiest route the final, and either Napoli or Arsenal could be a potential opponent for the final, I still expect Chelsea to beat any of the mentioned teams, provided they make it to the final.

Almost 30 minutes gone, and we still await the first goal for this fixture, Chelsea have been playing well so far though, I'm thinking of betting Chelsea to win on live bet currently valued @ 1.72 Odds.

Liverpool better not let me down today, we have the chance to go 2 points clear at the top if we beat Fulham. We will have played 1 game more but Man City’s game in hand is Man Utd at Old Trafford.
It’s reaching the time of major pressure now, who has the balls to handle it?
Yeah, please Liverpool not fucked up this away game. Just need 0-1 goal, even ugly win is fine. 3 points is really important here, just no more draw. Prediction 0-3 or 1-3 win for Liverpool. Lol! Liverpool are ahead at Halftime. I don't think they will screw this lead up, I didn't bet on the match due to it's low odds though, but I would have bet on over 2.5 goals If I wanted to place a bet.

Juventus are on the verge of losing their first Serie A match this season, they are trailing 2 - 0 to Genoa, and the game is in its dying stages already, Which Juventus 27 matches unbeaten run has eventually come to an end.

Roma losing against Spal does not mean anything in Serie A , this league is already won by Juventus as it has happened in continuity these last few years.
Betting on this league is not recommended as the teams do not play for anything, so the chances you lose money are high.
That's not true, So many teams are playing for the top 4 spots and as well as the 5th and 6th position, these positions will guarantee a presence in UCL and UEL, The revenues from playing in an European competition will even be worth a lot for these teams. That's something to play for.

Today's game Oklahoma City Thunder vs Warriors
I'll be backing GSW to win this game, I however will be going for moneyline instead of any pointspread.
Warriors ML
Still no Durant in this game, I like your instinct, you really trust the warriors against the OKC. Like what they did to the Rockets, they are already up double digit now in the first quarter so you have a good chance to win this bet. My instict paid off! I had quite a huge(according to my limit) bet on this, GSW always turn up when It's big a game match up and today was no exception even without KD. Tomorrow's advance pick - Heat -3.5 vs Hornets +3.5

Manchester United gets crashed out of FA cup action by Wolverhampton. Goals from Raul Jimenez and Diogo Jota ensured that a Marcus Rashford last minute goal was too little too late. Looks like Ole's honey money is over at united. Time to face the real music.
Not surprised tbh, this is Cup match and there always a surprise on cup match. Even Man City almost lose against Swansea. Still sucks though for Man United, a chance to win 1 throphy in this year vanished. Man City were said to have had controversial calls favor them during the match in absence of VAR. If the Video Assistant Referee was in place the penalty that led to the equalizer would probably not have been given, the winner would have be canceled as well due to an offside play.

I watched this match and it looks that Atletico still haven't recovered after loss to Juventus - not phisically, but emotionally. Their performance was really bellow their level tonight. About Barca, match against Betis is one few most difficult remainig matches for Barca. After Atletico loss, nothing terrible won't happen if Barca will lose or play draw. But win and 10 point gap would make our situation very comfortable with just 10 games remaining.
I just hope Barcelona take this match with uttermost importance and shouldn't relent simply because Atletico Madrid lost, the latter stages of Champions League is fast approach and If the team create a big gap with lead at the La Liga table now, there will less pressure on the Coach to field all players in La liga during that stage in order not to drop points.

the odds of an AC milan vs Inter Milan are 50-50, but I bet for Milan because they are in a positive trend, while mental Inter is down after being knocked out of the uefo europa league.
Although, I think the match is more likely to be won by AC Mlian as they have been in perfect form for some weeks now, they've win each of the last five matches. Inter mean while have lost one and drew one of their last five matches. Inter will have to do with the services of Nainggolan and Mauro Icardi, AC Milan will be without Bonaventura. My Prediction: Milan 1 - 0 Inter

Atletico Madrid lost to Athletic Bilbao at the San mames 2 - 0, and they are now 2 only points ahead of Real Madrid, A win for Barcelona against Real Betis tomorrow will extend the gap to 10 points, and it will be almost impossible to catch them then.

Lol! Man Utd and Ole are now facing reality, it has been a long time coming. I was pretty impressed with Man City's performance coming back from a 2 goal deficit to win 3 - 2 against Swansea City, and are definitely in pole position to win the trophy.

This thread has been quiet over the last few days.
So, Roma just lost 1-2 against Spal and they could possibly drop to 7th place if Torino and Atalanta win their respective games. I've said it before, Ranieri is not the solution.
They could further drop to 8th position if Lazio should win tomorrow and win their match in hand, I think Roma are gradually blowing their chance of a top 4 finish. They also have a tough match against Napoli as their fixture, which means another potential slip up.

Gareth Bale just made it 2 - 0 for Real Madrid against Celta Vigo, and it means Zidane will starting off his second spell at Real with a win.
It was an easy match for him and it is normal to start with a win. I would expect a new attitude in the Real Madrid with more aggressive and attacking play from the first team, especially with the extremes running up and down the pitch. Still the 2-0 is a good start but I expect to see more scoring in the future with Zidane on the bench. Hopefully, we see more positive results in the future, but I think it is still too late and they'll be ending the season trophyless. but they'll have more time to prepare for the upcoming season.

Arsenal vs Napoli will be two high quality games, could almost be a CL game. I think this tie will be great, I make Napoli very slight favourites to advance.
Arsenal at all means should avoid what happened in their round of 32, round of 16 in which they lost their first match and were needing second leg comeback before they can qualify for the succeeding stage, If they want to make to the finals,
