Yes, we shouldn't be too happy to see Nice win their first match against PSG at the start of this season because that is not enough to prove that Nice is really strong this season. Nice's performance is not very consistent so is still a little doubtful when doing various things match because recently Nice just suffered a defeat at home Rennes which further widened the gap with PSG to eight points, and in the next match Nice will host Metz. I think Nice has a bigger chance of winning considering that Metz is in a bad condition recently and has suffered a losing streak in the last 5 matches so Nice must make good use of home opportunities if they want to continue to be in 2nd place.

In several previous posts, I have reviewed a little about the team that is ranked 2nd in the Ligue 1 standings. Yes, the Nice team squad, this is the team we are discussing in this post. I don't want to say that Nice is a strong team, but they have been fortunate to have a pretty solid defense so far. That's why, Nice is the team that has conceded the fewest goals in its 18 matches and the team that has scored the fewest goals compared to the teams in the top four of the standings. well, now Nice is 8 points behind PSG. Plus, Nice's defeat against Rennes seems to be starting to make this team a little loose. Thus, Nice has experienced 3 defeats in 18 matches. Meanwhile, PSG is a little more relaxed at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.

Talking about Nice's match against Metz, they should be able to maximize their chances of getting full points. At least, Nice maintains its ranking in 2nd place. because if they only get minor points, it means AS Monaco can overtake the ranking they currently occupy. But don't expect that Nice will be able to score a lot of goals. We'll see if Nice can maintain its position against Metz. or, AS Monaco will take over even though their opponent is Marseille. So, let's just wait for this week's match to take place.

You can do it your way, and there is absolutely nothing against it. Honestly, I don't know whether what you post in this thread is the result of your experience and combining it with all the information and insights you get. including references from experts, whether it be knowledge of the art of betting and also in observing sports activities. however, some of the points you said could be useful for the community, especially those interested in sports betting. however, there are several points that are based on your personal assumptions, especially point 5. for me, the important thing is that we really know the league, avoid something we don't know at all. Ideally, betting on top leagues is easier for us to research and analyze. why, because we can get a lot of information quickly, including predictions presented by several sites. for me, it is very helpful and at least gives an idea of ​​​​the match in progress. even though in reality, everything boils down to predictions, that's why we do it to minimize losses. Well, let me add a tip that I always do. In essence, the essence is the same as point 3. However, don't be too greedy to bet by choosing lots of matches, because this will obviously only reduce our chances of winning. 1 or 2 single bets, that's enough. even if more, maybe 3 to complement it. try to choose a decent ospi, whether it's 1×2, Under/Over or something else and so on. If you are interested in multinet or parlay options, try with a small bankroll. because the probability of winning is very slim. As for the weather factor, let's look at the league first. some are influential, some are not. But in reality, professional athletes have been tested in various fields, they only need to adapt. Finally, bet with our abilities.

Not only that, but in terms of goal statistics, Al Hilal is the best among all the teams in the Saudi Pro League this season, Al Hilal only conceded 9 goals in 19 matches and scoring 59 goals is extraordinary.
What Al Hilal has achieved this season continues their dominance in the Saudi pro league which was broken by Ittihad FC last season, because Al Hilal is the team with the most Saudi pro league titles compared to other clubs by collecting 18 championship titles and succeeding as runners up 15 times.
Al Hilal's dominance is not like Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, which continues to be champion many times, even for a decade, because if they have been champions 2 or 3 times, there will be other teams such as Al Nassr and Ittihad FC who can break this dominance, but in a decade this champion is dominated by a club that is under the auspices of PIF, so we can see that money plays quite an important role in making a team strong and successful.

I'll just add to what you said in this post. however, I do not have data and information regarding exactly when PIF acquired the 4 clubs competing in the Saudi Pro League. but what is clear, before PIF acquired Al Hilal and several other clubs. PIF has first acquired the majority of shares in Newcastle in 2021. After that, in the 22-23 season news spread that PIF owned the majority of shares in Al Hilal, Al Nassr, Al Ittihad and Al-Ahli. So before PIF took over ownership of Al Hilal, this team was one of the elite teams in the Saudi Pro League. and yeah, as you said that is the fact.
Last season Al Hilal had a very busy schedule of matches compared to other teams, especially in the second half of the season. In one week, Al Hilal can play 3 matches that are close together. Apart from that, Al Hilal must divide its focus on other competitions. In the end, this team experienced a decline in performance, and Al Ittihad was able to break Al Hilal's dominance after three consecutive seasons of being champions in this competition.

This season, Al Hilal is no less competitive with Al Nassr, which has long been its rival. They brought in several top European players, and the most famous was Neymar. In the end, Neymar was dropped due to a long injury in order to add slots to strengthen their defensive line. Now, Al Hilal is at the top of the standings with a difference of seven points over the teams below their ranking. It could be said that currently Al Hilal is the closest in winning the Saudi Pro League trophy this season. especially, if we talk based on statistics and you have reviewed them. So, the Al Hilal coach's job is only to maintain the consistency of his team's squad until this season ends.

This season, the Lens team doesn't look good enough, so it's quite natural that Lens lost to PSG at home with only two goals without reply. Apart from that, PSG itself is still quite strong in Ligue1 so it is also natural for PSG to win with two goals without reply at home to Lens. Now PSG is back in the lead again and it is almost impossible for its rivals in Ligue1 to catch up and everyone can guess who will win the trophy again in Ligue1 this season.

IMO, the fact is that Lens only has as much depth as the quality they have. so, it's natural for PSG to beat them in the meeting between these two teams. the decline in Lens this season can be caused by many factors, and we can make assumptions based on our own judgment and understanding. Last season, Lens was one of the teams to be reckoned with and was able to finish in 2nd place. apart from that, Lens only participates in two competitions, namely Ligue 1 and Coepe de France. this season, things are different for Lens. they are involved in the most prestigious competition, namely the Champions League. apart from that, Lens also has to maintain its consistency in Ligue 1 and Coepe de France. there are three competitions that they participate in, two of which are quite tough competitions, especially the Champions League. in the end, Haise had difficulty getting the most out of his team with the minimum depth of players at their level. Lens was in the red zone, but gradually Pranck Haise was able to bring his team back to the safe zone. Next, Lens must divide its focus to the Europa League. if Lens is able to beat Freiburg and enter the round of 16. that means, Haise has to divide his focus again. and it could be that Lens' performance will not be optimal in Ligue 1. but we'll see how far Lens goes this season.  at least, they are safe from the red zone. as for PSG, this team is progressing smoothly in Ligue 1. at least, for now they are in a safe position at the top of the standings.

Chelsea looking to recklessly spend more money on transfers? It’d be good if they actually decided to coach the £1,500,000,000 signings that they have already made.
Firmino and Benzema have been true legends of the game but they are past their peak.
Chelsea do not care about spending a lot of money when there is a striker who is wanted will definitely be bought. No Chelsea only want instant and already famous players at any price will be bought. Lol

Yes this player has become a legend. Benzema for Real Madrid and Firminho for Liverpool as legends, now there are many teams who want his services maybe he only utilizes the rest of his career on loan because this will not require high costs.

So far I don't really follow player transfer rumors or developments, so I've missed a lot of gossip or rumors in the last two weeks.  reading this post, especially regarding the development of Benzema and Firmino, does this mean that Chelsea is targeting them.  Or, this is just rumors and gossip or could just be speculation. I really don't know, and haven't kept up with developments for some time.  However, if it is true that he is linked with Chelsea, I wonder if there are not other options that are younger and can be used for at least the next 1 or 2 seasons. because for me, that is more logical and ideal.

A few weeks ago, Osimhen was linked with Chelsea and I thought that if the player was willing to move to Stamford Brigde it would be better for Chelsea even though it would have to dig deep into their pockets. That doesn't mean I'm saying that Benzema can't be relied on, if he is really linked with Chelsea. It's just that you have to take into account the age factor and how much money Todd Boehly has to spend. if the option is a loan player and the costs are low, it is quite logical and ideal. However, isn't Benzema's salary fantastic at Al Ittihad? Likewise with Firmino, which teams are interested in him. Is he still linked with Chelsea, or are clubs in Serie A still interested in his services.
By the way, it seems like I also have to start digging up the latest information regarding developments in rumors and player transfers. Well, let's just wait for developments regarding Benzema and Firmino.

Haaland and Kevin Debruyne are important players for Manchester city. I think them staying off injury for the remaining half of the season would keep their title hopes alive. Debruyne’s return has helped Manchester City bounced back from being written off to put themselves firmly back in the title race. When Halaand returns, it’s going to be serious business for Manchester city. They would want to get back all their stolen points and be looking to close the gap on leaders Liverpool at the top of the table.


So, the hot topic in this thread right now is turning more towards Manchester City. this is natural, because De Brunye's return from injury immediately appeared impressive in the match against Newcastle. even though, he only played for 21 minutes. however, his one assist and one goal have had a big impact on the storyline of this season's trophy competition. and De Bryne's return with the main squad was greeted with an impression of Manchester City's progress in the title race. As for Haaland, he is reportedly predicted to return at the end of this month. theoretically, Haaland could compete again in the Champions League against Copenhagen in the round of 16. although rumors say Halaand will only be absent until City play Burnley. but we'll see how things develop next.

Well, talking about these two players, Pep always combines them into one package in his strategy and system. these two players will complement each other and that was proven last season in both the Premier League and Champions League. so, it seems like most of us agree that the return of the two Manchester City stars will really be a threat to their competitors in the title race. however, to be honest, I'm more interested in what Pep Guaridola will do. I mean, more about the system and pattern that he will apply. Will Pep step on the gas with his signature pattern? or, it has other patterns and systems.  This is interesting for me personally, so we'll wait until City plays with a full squad without any injured players.

The problem with Rome is ROme itself, Mourinho do a magnificient job in this years making them and putting them against in the radar of europe, but yes his alst season was not so good in term of performance and with a much more capable team than in other years, so for that reason Rome directives can be a little angry, the problem is...... De Rossi as coach?Huh

To be honest, I don't have the capacity to talk about the teams competing in Serie A. Moreover, I rarely watch competitions where Roma play matches in their local league. but armed with experience and as far as I know about Mourinho, there are not many words I can describe other than the system he developed or the strategy he always applies is outdated. I wouldn't say that Mourinho completely did that, in several matches Roma played with an offensive pattern. however, in almost all of Roma's away games, they played or against teams that were equal, even stronger than them. Mourinho's style and tactics seem to have stuck with him, especially in Europa competitions.

Last season, I still remember very well the semi-final match against Leverkusen. Honestly, that match was really very boring. why, because one of the full teams plays defense. Nothing else, that's the artistic tactical style displayed by Mourinho. So, it seems I don't agree that the problem with the AS Roma squad is a problem with Roma itself. for me, it's not that simple. maybe what I said is not correct, but as the coach and architect of the AS Roma squad, the coach is an image of the team he manages. although it doesn't always have to be as specific as what I said.
BTW, there are rumors that Jose Mourinho has been fired and I haven't read the news about it. but if true, that means the club management no longer relies on him. I can only say, I hope AS Roma finds the ideal coach for them. because after all, AS Roma used to be one of my favorite teams in Serie A in the Totti and Bastistusta era.

All parties at Barcelona should apologize to the supporters, especially since this season they failed to win the Spanish Super Cup. Their performance was good in that match where Barcelona managed to fire 7 shots on goal, and Barcelona also had a high percentage of ball possession compared to Real Madrid. Barcelona only failed to take advantage of their many goal opportunities in that match, they were also disadvantaged because the referee sent off Araujo with a red card.

In general, Barcelona and Real Madrid both played well and created many goal opportunities, but Barcelona's weak defensive system and the strikers' poor finishing meant that Barcelona had to give up with a score of 4-1. Real Madrid deserved the win, but this was no embarrassment for Barcelona. Since then, Barcelona has had to get better focus on La Liga, the Copa Del Rey and also the Champions League. At least Barcelona still has a chance to win the title if they are able to improve their performance and consistency.

In fact, the Spanish Super Cup trophy is not that prestigious, but what is more prestigious is the El Clasico match itself from my personal point of view. As Barcelona fans, they don't need to apologize to us for the defeat they experienced in the Spanish Super Cup. on the contrary, instead Barcelona must perform better in other competitions so that we as supporters are not so disappointed with their performance this season. after all, last season Barcelona won the Spanish Super Cup. now it's his to Real Madrid, and they deserve it. But we agree that Barcelona must improve because they still have matches in several competitions.

IMO, Barcelona this season should be able to perform much better than last season. It's just that the situation and conditions illustrate the opposite. The decline in the performance of Barcelona's back line has had quite an impact on their consistency, several names often underperform. on the front lines, Lewandowski actually always has the opportunity or opportunity to score goals. however, the support given to him is less than ideal in my opinion. It could be because of the system that Xavi uses, or the wingers, especially the young ones, still need experience and stability. for midfield, for me they are ideal. there are Gundohan, De Jong, Gavi, Pedri.  Even though Gavi was injured for a long time, Xavi should have replaced him. ideally, since Xavi is Barcelona's head coach. His current task is how to utilize his players to perform optimally. after all, Barcelona actually has quite competitive depth. So, we'll see how far Xavi can take his squad.

Talking about Real Madrid, even though I'm not actually a Los Blancos fan. however, what Carlo Ancelotti has done with his squad is worthy of appreciation. Moreover, Real Madrid is now dominated by young players. but they are able to do their job well. which in essence, coaches and players have harmonious, good, measurable cooperation and have great progress in the future. Well, let's just enjoy it as these two teams play match after match, especially in the upcoming El Clasico match.

I think City should go further because in football every team has a year when they dominate. If Manchester City wins again this year, it will force the UCL and these other teams to be better. Thus, we will see a tighter competition next year. I think Real Madrid or City are the favorites this year.

Most likely, it looks like Pep Guardiola's target is to defend the title they won in the Champions League last season. remembering several of Pep's previous statements, he had told the media crew that they would defend the title they won as winners of the Champions League. more or less, Pep once said something like that. that's why Pep Guardiola often experiments with his team, especially rotating players in various positions and changing patterns. maybe, I suspect that Pep is preparing something while waiting for De Bruyne to recover from his injury.
now, De Bruyne has recovered from his injury. Pep is just waiting for Haaland to return to the field, who is scheduled to recover at the end of this month. if Pep Guardiola's squad is complete again, it means Pep can implement the system he likes the most, just like last season. however, several new players will be assigned instead of Gundohan or several other players. what is certain is that the team that will play against City must be prepared and cannot underestimate it.

Talking about Real Madrid, so far Carlo Ancelotti has been able to bring his young squad to a brilliant performance. every match that Madrid plays, relies more on its young players. however, they displayed an impressive performance and should be considered as one of the challengers in this competition. but we'll see if Madrid can overcome its first obstacle in the round of 16 against Leipzig. if yes, the challenges in the next phase will be quite challenging, especially if you meet a team that is equally strong and at the same time the players are well established and experienced. well, let's just enjoy it first, the round of 16 which will be held next month.
950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 16, 2024, 06:49:06 PM
True, Leipzig is one of a strong team when they play at home.
In this season they only lost once in 8 games at home, even Bayern and Stuttgart are not able to get 3 points there.

It will be interesting to watch this match, there must be many goals because Leverkusen will play attacking and Leipzig is good with counterattack.
Also Leverkusen will host Bayern on Feb 11th, a very very important match for both sides.
For Leipzig, the opponents in this week's match must also be considered tough because Bayer Leverkusen also often carry out deadly attacks which will make it difficult for any home team to create a good defense. I also think that their match this week will be quite interesting because considering that both of them are very good teams this season and are also both in the UCL zone so it is quite possible that the match will look fierce and tough.

Remembering the previous match that Leverkusen played when they visited Augsburg, it looks like it will be quite a difficult challenge for Xabi Alonso to bring his team to the Red Bul Arena, Leipzig's home ground. moreover, the absence of Victor Boniface means that Xabi has to implement another system that is more effective than the one against Augsburg. even though Leverkusen statistically controlled the game at that time, playing against Leipzig, especially at home, was not an easy matter. what is certain is that Leipzig is tougher than Augsburg. well, to overthrow the hosts in this meeting, will be homework for Xabi Alonso and his team.

On the other hand, the home team will take full advantage of this match to get full points at home. plus, avenge their defeat in the first meeting at the BayArena home to Bayer Leverkusen. so, this match should be an enjoyable fight to watch. neither Marco Rose nor Xabi Alonso want to lose points in this meeting. which means, both sides are equally aiming for victory. Leverkusen to keep their distance from Bayern Munich, while Leipizig as the home team is aiming for victory to shift the position occupied by Stuttgart. I tried referring to the betting exchange, even though it is temporary, the odds available are not much different.  even though Leizpig has an advantage as the home team. well, let's just wait before this fight takes place this week.

That is how the idea of this topic appeared. I watch others gamble, I watch how the bet, I start to think about betting more than usually. Do you have such feeling also? Do you have a feeling that if others make large bets, that you also must bet large, otherwise you would feel like uncomfortable, or feel like a poor among rich, or something of that kind.

A situation and feeling that is normal for us to experience as you say in this post, especially if at the same time we experience the opposite. I mean, while we see other people's gambling with wins, while we experience losses. the feeling of wanting to do the same thing often crosses our minds, and we can even be tempted to do more than that, even if we are able. but if not, it means it's just wishful thinking. in this situation, usually you will try to follow the gambling they are doing. but in each case, it doesn't actually have to be the same specific. well, that's why I said that actually things like that can affect us. or, it could be the other way around. the point is, what you feel is normal.

To be honest, I rarely pay attention to how other people bet.nexcept for watching the streamers' broadcasts, that's only a glimpse. but sometimes, we like to gamble with friends in our free time. in this context, I am speaking in the past. when my friend wins, I also feel the same feeling you experienced. sometimes, we are tempted and even make unusual bets. I mean, you and I can bet on big bets without thinking it through carefully. but apart from all that, self-control is an idea that we can develop to control emotions such as anger, greed and excessive desire.

It's a bit funny this time in our discussion, in fact I rarely pay attention or interpret words like the ones you present. I mean, like the title of this thread. or maybe, you and I have said a few words that without realizing it have become a strange alibi for the community. who knows, after all, we discuss a lot and even review every discussion in gambling. well, so it occurred to me that maybe there were a lot of strange words I said to the community. but what I agree with, and oddly enough is what you shared in your link. I will quote it, "Gambling every day draws you closer to winning". we agree, that this thread makes me a little funny. But don't get me wrong, because in reality I don't have the slightest narrow mind. in fact, I also made a post in that thread.

Honestly, I'm trying to remember some of the strangest alibis in my own circle. but I can't remember it, especially for something that makes little impression on me. however, in our area there are many gamblers who often say, "keep depositing, never win". this is just a figure of speech, our place is to joke with each other about gambling. or, "don't give up", in his words it was changed to, "never give up smoke and let's keep gambling". these words are just a play, yeah like sarcasm for example.

South Korea vs Bahrain match results: 3-1 for South Korea's win.

South Korea played very easily in finding full points. Ball possession reached 71% and total shots reached 14x.
Bahrain was able to score 1 goal as an achievement in the game dominated by South Korea.

The team that is the favorite to win the Asian Cup plays the first match in their respective group with a win. Australia wins, Japan wins, South Korea wins.
Now, Indonesia vs Iraq match.
Indonesia is reportedly ready to give a surprise even though on paper Iraq is stronger.

The match between South Korea vs Bahrain is as I previously predicted, there will be at least 3 goals in this match. and yeah, the final result was 3-1. technically, South Korea is much better than its opposing team. especially, in terms of long balls and accurate passes. South Korea's first goal was done very well with long balls. meanwhile, Bahrain, their defense gave a lot of space to the opposing team. in the end, South Korea won this match. for the prediction of the Indonesia vs Iraq match, the final result was slightly different from my predictions and estimates. Previously I suspected that this match would end with a close score. for example, 1-2 or even a draw if Indonesia plays full defense.

Today, the Asian Cup will feature a match between Thailand vs Kyrgyzstan. Based on the FiFA ranking, Kyrgyzstan is above Thailand. It's just that, there is something quite strange for me referring to betting options. Referring to the odds for the two teams, Thailand is slightly superior. for Thailand, I am quite familiar with their style and playing system. but for Kyrgyzstan, I don't know much information. and referring to data and statistics, it seems that choosing Thailand is the ideal choice for the community who wants to bet. based on odds, Thailand with @2.39 and while Kyrgyzstan with @2.95. This match also allegedly will not produce many goals, like other matches. which means, the match will be quite tough. well, for me there are two options in betting. first option bets on Thailand, second option bets on both teams to score @1.90. ideally, this match ends with 1-1 or 2-1. well, let's wait for the final result.

There are things we forget, that in fact there is no prediction that truly guarantees 100% accuracy. if there is an expert who shares the results of his predictions, it does not mean that what he predicts will provide a guarantee of winning in his bet. an expert, has knowledge in his field with everything he knows. then, he tries to research according to the team that will compete, tries to examine various aspects, whether it is team depth, patterns, strategies, opportunities, and all other variables related to what he is good at. usually experts will refer to various points of view in their analysis, then they try to conclude from the results they have analyzed. looking for appropriate odds, or favoring one of the teams that is predicted to win a match. and don't forget, predictions are like weather forecasts. this does not mean that the signs that the expert saw beforehand, or calculated using his method, will produce an accurate prediction. in football, the coach can change strategies according to the team's needs, as well as patterns, strategies and player substitutions. which means, the results of previous expert analysis may change. anyway, if someone has been given the title "EXPERT", it means that he really understands and masters something in his field. actually, we can also review it from various aspects, but I think what I have said is enough. the point is, we can refer to an expert's predictions, but we can't just follow his instructions or betting choices. we can even look for other references, or try to predict it ourselves based on the knowledge and insight we have. btw, for me researching and analyzing my own results is an art in betting for me.

My question is do you think gambling every day is better? From his reasoning and points of narrations.

For me, the answer depends and is very relative. I also read various responses from the community, and it seems like most of the answers point to addiction. But actually gambling every day can have a big impact on addiction. So, I agree with most of the responses from the community. but from the other side, if I am a person who has abundant wealth. honestly, I wouldn't mind doing it. unfortunately, for me, gambling every day is not ideal for me personally. The main problem is, I have to be active in my job to get a steady income to meet our basic needs. Besides, gambling every day does not guarantee a win. Moreover, for gamblers who have limited capital.

The question is, how do we always win while our bankroll is limited. Apart from that, what games or gambling do your friends play? does he show you real evidence, at least to strengthen his argument that gambling every day makes a person close to victory. By the way, I have experience and it seems like this experience is often experienced by almost all gamblers, of course we have gambled every day at certain moments. but instead of achieving victory, the opposite happened. Let's just say we gamble for a whole week, and it's very likely that most of those who do it end up losing a lot of money. That doesn't mean that gambling every day can't make money or win, but usually in the end most of us will target winning, especially if in the previous few days we experienced consecutive losses. and when that victory comes, we will be tempted to multiply it even more. in the end, we lose it all. So, play appropriately and in moderation. play as best as we can, without having to sacrifice a lot of money, even money that shouldn't be at stake. gambling every day is not a problem for someone who is able to do it, but for us it is quite risky and can even impact our work or our social environment.

I'm not sure, if I have the right advice to you. however, if you are a woman, especially if you are married, you should know that the habit of keeping secrets will usually have a bad impact. Likewise, if the situation were the opposite, how would you respond if your husband secretly liked to gamble. what is certain is that if things are kept secret, they will usually invite an unpleasant response, especially if they are known indirectly. in other words, for example, if you are caught secretly gambling.
in fact, I don't know you, not even your husband. so, you yourself can assess your own husband's characteristics. in your opinion, is your husband a typical neutral person or someone who upholds rights and freedoms? If that's the case, you can immediately open up to your husband. but with the condition, you have to explain it and take the time for it. so that there are no misunderstandings or missed information, prepare in advance the ideal words that will be used in your discussion with your husband. then, you can share your story and tell the truth. give him confidence, that you are just doing it for fun and nothing more. also give your husband an understanding about gambling, that in essence you gamble not to seek wealth, get additional income, but rather for entertainment and do it for fun but with certain limits. Tell your husband that the money you spend as gambling capital does not interfere with basic needs or does not use money that should not be used for gambling. You have to give him understanding from various points of view, that way your husband will understand and comprehend what you are doing.

Note, what I said was aimed at husbands who really don't know gambling or can be said to be lay people. However, if your husband is the type who thinks gambling is something wrong or something like that, your job will take time to give him insight and understanding first. Try not to be suspicious, so let it flow like you're having a discussion. most importantly, avoid arguments.
By the way, I hope what I say can help you, especially if you can do it more creatively.

As gamblers, we love more action, so we tend to make more bets on a regular basis. However, experts say that when we make too many picks regularly, our chances of winning decrease. This is due to the fact that we won't be able to analyze all the games carefully that are in our ticket and won't have the advantage needed to win. So instead, it's recommended that we should value quality over quantity if we want to succeed in sports betting.

Share your opinion regarding this matter.



Edit : I see that some replies are talking about parlay. FYI, this is not about parlay, it's about making many single picks on a regular basis. Please avoid using parlay when sharing your opinion.

As long as I discuss sports betting, I always say that the most ideal is a single bet. especially, if we talk about football. every week there are many matches that will be held, whatever the league. starting from the local leagues of each country, to the top European leagues. well, we have many opportunities every week to choose and sort the teams we will bet on later. in fact, I am not referring to expert opinions about too many choices reducing the chances of winning, but based on my experience in sports betting. the more matches we choose, the smaller our chances of winning. so, I agree with what you said in this post based on expert sources, especially in the field of sports. that's why, I often say, bet as ideally as possible and choose from the many matches presented. even before a match is about to take place, we can research it and gather as much up-to-date information as possible.

what's even more ideal is that we have marked several matches beforehand even though the matches, for example, will be held in the next three days. collect information, then research and analyze it. after that, we look for the ideal odds choice as a bet and don't always just have to bet on 1×2. there are many options for us to choose from, whether both teams scored, Under/Over, handicap and various options available. maximum, three matches is more than enough. ideally, just one single bet, that too from various matches that we choose. and never hesitate, if there are no interesting, good, high probability choices, then avoid betting. and I often do this, at least from various top European leagues, one of the best matches is the choice. or, as I said, a maximum of three matches. even so, there is no guarantee that the team we choose will win all three. well, there are no other words other than I agree with what the experts say.

Haaland may leave Manchester this summer.

He will have a release clause around 120-150mil and if Guardiola will leave, he will also leave.

Just my 2 cents.
It will be interesting to see how it goes because if Manchester City lose the figure of Pep and Manchester City, of course this will be a pretty heavy loss for them because after all they are 2 figures who are currently the most meritorious for Manchester City.
We know that Pep had previously planned to leave because the club conditions were not very favorable especially when he failed in the Champions League in his last 2 seasons he had decided to leave but it could still be thwarted by Manchester City and finally got the Treble last season.
As for Haaland although he has only been at Manchester City for 1 season, he has also become one of the players who contributed the most to the goals scored by Manchester City because last season's top scoring title is proof that he is a very talented young player even though this is his first season in a new competition bigger than the Bundesliga.

If indeed these two pillars decide to leave the club then this will be a loss for Manchester City because indirectly there will be a change in performance that could be significant especially when Pep decides to leave the Etihad.

As we all know, Pep Guardiola has managed Manchester City for at least seven seasons, he has been very instrumental and contributed to the club and his team. who knows how many titles he won with his squad, and the 2022-23 season is his best season. I'm sure that even if Pep Guardiola eventually leaves the Etihad Stadium, his legacy will not just disappear. At the very least, the club will look for a coach who has almost the same characteristics as this Spaniard's coaching style. well, regarding the disappearance of a figure like Pep Guardiola, it will eventually happen. what is certain is that the coming and going of coaches or players is certain and all clubs will experience the same thing. but the club, or Manchester City, will continue to exist as long as the people in it come and go. Haaland is no exception, in the end he might go on an adventure to find another club that will be his goal. However, both Pep Guardiola and Erlin Haaland are still under contract with Manchester City for quite a long time. in particular, Erlin Haaland's contract ends in 2027.

However, it is not impossible that Pep ultimately chooses another club that he trains and Haaland could leave at any time, especially for teams that are willing to pay Haaland's release clause. However, on condition that the player is willing to leave Etihad. talking about Haaland, yeah as we all know. Manchester City is the team that has made its name the most, apart from Dortmund. with City, Haaland won the treble winner in his first season. the question is, is there a club that will take him away from City in the near future? so far, everything is still just rumors. so, there is a big possibility that the player will stay at the Etihad Stadium and maybe for Pep Guaridola too.

The bad part about what City going through right now is that KDB is back, and we all know how kevin plays, that dude has been awesome ever since his return, just a couple games and he is already doing things that saves them, dude is amazing and I agree that he is going to end up being even better. But that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about a missing player yet again.

They got Kevin De Bruyne back, but they are missing Haaland right now at the same time, those two were the best duo in all of football world last season, and they haven't played any games together this season so far I think, or if any, that must be before KDB got injured. So City is not even at 100% right now and will take a while, need to get Haaland back, and both those players in 100% shape.

When City played their match in the Group G phase, they got maximum points even though several players had to be absent due to injury. one of them, Kevin De Brunye, had to be in the treatment room for quite a long time. nevertheless, Pep Guardiola's squad did not experience any significant problems when playing their matches against teams in the Group G phase. now, De Brunye has returned and recovered from his injury. even though Pep didn't play him as the main starter in the match against Newcastle, De Bruyne was able to maximize his ability and stability even though he only played a short 21 minutes. Gradually, Pep will return De Bruyne as the main player in his starting eleven. at least, City now has additional ammunition options that can be relied upon in every City match. especially, in the Champions League competition which seems to remain Pep Guardiola's target to defend the title they won last season.

In the round of 16, City will play the away match in the first leg at home to Copenhagen. in theory, City will not experience any significant problems in the next match. which means, City's probability of qualifying for the next round is quite high. Likewise with Haaland, this player from Norway is predicted to make a comeback at the end of January. If it is true according to the predicted schedule, Haaland can be played when City plays Copenhagen later. both in the first leg and in the second leg. so, this way Pep can play his two mainstay players like last season. the combination of Haaland and De Buyne will be a problem for the teams that will be their opponents later. Let's see how De Brunye plays his matches, especially in the Champions League. likewise with Haaland, who is scheduled to return at the end of this season. thus, Pep again has a squad he can rely on. but to be sure, let's see and wait to see how it develops.

In fact, if Kevin De Bruyne had been played from the start of the match then the result would not have been like this and that was Pep Guardiola's strategy to include him as a supersub. The results, as we can see, with energy that is still fit and also an extraordinary game vision, the results are very commensurate. If Kevin De Bruyne is included from the start, it is possible that Manchester City will be under more pressure because his recovery will not support a fierce match like this and I think Pep Guardiola's decision is very correct.

Now Manchester City certainly feels very favored again after the return of Kevin De Bruyne and other teams like Liverpool are certainly very alert, especially as Jurgen Kloop also realizes that Manchester City's real big strength is Kevin De Bruyne and therefore Liverpool must not waste points in the future so that Manchester City doesn't can overtake them.

It is normal for De Bruyne to only be played as a supersub, in this context he suffered a long injury. so, Pep did what he should have done, especially in the match against Newcastle. and this decision is not just a matter of Pep's strategy, but to adjust the player, to adapt well when he returns to the field and before De Bruyne is made a main starter in the City squad again. even if De Bruyne is played as the main starter, it is very likely that the pattern that Pep Guardiola applies will be different. so, there are various possible scenarios if De Bruyne is played as the main starter. but what is certain is that as we know, if Pep prefers to play he starts from the bench.

And yeah, we agree that with the return of Kevin De Bruyne, Pep can apply the pattern that is usually his mainstay. thus, City's performance can improve much more than when De Bruyne was injured. Pep can rotate his players according to the pattern and strategy he applies. even if Pep Guardiola prefers De Bruyne to be played as a supersub in several matches or several weeks, City will still be a threatening team, especially for Liverpool. moreover, if Haalaand has recovered from his injury, you can be sure that these two players will complement each other like they did last season. so, it seems that the competition for the Premier League trophy this season will be even more exciting.
