^Looking at previous meetings will not determine the outcome of the match at this point of the season. A lot has changed in both teams after their last meeting. I think if we consider recent forms, we are up for a really interesting game of football because both the teams are on really good form in recent times.
In the past 10 years, Barcelona were stronger than Manchester United and in this season, their difference looks to be very small. If their matches occur in early of season, Barcelona are stronger but now they are similar.

Quote
Manchester United where struggling at the start of the season but seems like Erik ten Hag has found his feet and has got the tactic and combination because Manchester United have been winning in the past few weeks and they are on a good winning streak.
After early months with lot of drama and chaos, Manchester United finally find good tactics for their players and successfully resolved drama too. They are now more focusing on training and playing than on fighting with noise from media.

Quote
But if I had to predict the score I would say that Barcelona will score 2 goals whereas Manchester will score 1.
Their matches can have a lot of goals if they can make defenders of opponent panic. They have not too strong defense systems which are easily broken especially when they are panic.

@Lordhermes if they come against Roma then they’ll definitely perish, because Mourinho is a serial winner and Arteta side yet doesn’t have the experience of winning a big trophy hence too early to predict for Arsenal’s success. @zaki12 I’m not sure if Manchester United is a opponent to be feared, because if they play McFred and perform like their opening game then they’ll be easily beaten, but I’m sincerely hoping that they can transform themselves quickly and then compete for all the trophies.
Mourinho can fail to help his clubs (not rich clubs) to win their national leagues because there are more challenges than the past with big difference from rich clubs and non rich clubs.

However in cup format like Conference League, Europa League or Champions League, Mourinho can win it with his teams. He did it with Porto, Manchester United and Roma in 2021 - 2022 season with a trophy in Conference League.

With Cup format, Mourinho won't have to think too far and he focuses on each match. With his tactics, if players do his idea well and with luckiness, they can win each knock-out round and go the final match.

NFT industry is built on greediness and hype together with many scams. You won't be able to find bluechip NFTs.

They are kind of altcoins but how many bluechip altcoins you can have in cryptocurrency market? Not more than one hand.

For me I can name only Ethereum, BNB (Binance token) and maybe UNI token (from Uniswap) to the list of bluechip altcoins.

Sandbox, Decentraland, Axie Infinity are suffered seriously by dump pressure from their gamers, not only from the bear market. In addition, those NFT projects raised funds from the crowd by many sale rounds, Serie A, B, C, private, seed, public sales that bring dump pressure when their tokens get unlocked.

LCX can not compare to BNB that has a longer history and bigger ecosystem.

LCX got its all time high in late of 2021 when altcoin projects were still hot but it fell a lot in 2022 bear market. I see many altcoin projects failed to recover from bear market.

LCX is a young altcoin project and a next bull market can help us to assess this project better. 2024 is not far but if LCX fails in 2024 bull run, I won't believe it will perform good in 2025 or 2026 bear market.

Yes, we have got the result if PSG is still the powerful club. I just make the gambling when choose Anger win the match. So far Messi peformance is still good after world cup break. after got Assist from Mukiele, Messi fast to convert it to goal. So far he is a player who has best assist on ligue 1 together with Neymar, Messi also has 7 goals on PSG.
If you pick PSG as a winner for all of their matches in Ligue 1, you win with your bets with very high successful rate. In fact it depends on bet odds on bookmakers for PSG matches and their opponents too.

Messi returned and played a first match for PSG after World Cup 2022 and he did his job well. With one assist and one goal, he has a very good return that will make Bayern Munich more fearful. They will meet PSG in Champions League next month and a good form of Messi is not what Bayern really want to see.

Truthfully Strasbourg v Lens match is going on much more competitive than I expected.

The first half ended up by a 2-2 tie. Strasburg have been playing such a dedicated game against the second-positioned team of the league.
The match ended with a same result, 2 - 2. It was very interesting in a first half with 3 goals within 6 minutes from 11' to 16' and a fourth goal comes in 33'. This draw is so bad for Lens because they fell farther behind PSG with 6 points less.

With a return of Messi, the 6 point diffference can become bigger in next few weeks for PSG and Lens tend to lose their competition with PSG in Ligue 1. They likely wasted one of best periods in this season to take a first position on Ligue 1 table.

City without a shot on target with a strong lineup tonight? Not something I would have expected, I thought they would walk over Southampton.
That is a terrible match for Manchester City. They did not start it with their best players but even with their B team, they can still beat Southampton on normal days. No short on target, it should be a result from a C or D team, not B team of Manchester City.

Everyone was taken aback; I never expected Southampton to even draw, let alone win by two goals to none. They were eliminated from the tournament by Southampton, or perhaps they are more concerned with Premier League and Champions League matches. Let's see what they can do in their next EPL game.
Southampton had a great day and people maybe don't know but Southampton are not a big club in England. However they have contributed a lot of great youth talented players for England and the world. Bale, Walcott, Chamberlain, Luke Shaw, Sadio Mane.

They have so good scout team and ability to detect and grow youth players to star players. That contributes to their competitiveness and they can beat any club with their youth players on good days.

Obviously, having only a three-point lead over, Real Madrid is not going to be good enough for Barcelona. But I think we have to give Barcelona enough credit for being able to hold onto the first position on the table.
With only three points and uncertainty of Barcelona performance as well as strong ability of Real Madrid, it can become zero after any week. Having 3 points difference is better than nothing or falling behind Real Madrid.

Quote
Actually, we have to give Barcelona credit for being in first place even though they have a lot of problems going on. Real Madrid can obviously overtake Barcelona. There is still a lot of chance for Real Madrid to do that. But I just think Barcelona should be appreciated for how they have performed till now. But Barcelona will have to remember that the main target of Barcelona is to win the La Liga title right now. There will be a lot of people pointing fingers at them if they fail to do that.
Either Barcelona or Real Madrid, they are good enough to stand at a first position. I believe this position will be changed between them a few times till the season ending. Real Madrid will have bigger task in Champions League than Barcelona have their task in Europa League. Real Madrid might be ready to sacrifice La Liga for Champions League but Barcelona won't sacrifice La Liga for Europa League. It can be one of good advantage for Barcelona in their race with Real Madrid.
1348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 11, 2023, 10:59:04 AM
Well betting on Draw does make sense in that match. But I personally believe more in Napoli's ability to win the match against Juventus. even if only by a thin score. Because Napoli with good form and undoubted consistency since the start of the season is a thing to watch. coupled with the advantage in this match is that Napoli will compete at home. But sometimes surprising things do happen. But in Serie A we haven't had many surprising results recently.
It will be hosted at Napoli home stadium and Napoli can satisfy with a draw that at least help them to maintain difference with other clubs. With Juventus, their task is winning the match.

Napoli have become stronger mentally and they will not debut the match with fear of loss against big clubs and Juventus won't make Napoli fearful at home. I even think of a possibility that Napoli can win the match and get rid of one competitor. We can not say Napoli won't be able to achieve it as they are totally stronger and very different in this season than the past season.


It is not about Napoli and Juventus but about a former player of Juventus, Gigi Buffon who made a great save in a match between Parma and Inter Milan. He is at his 44-years old already. Will we see Gigi Buffon in Serie A 2023 - 2024 with Parma?
1349  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: January 11, 2023, 10:45:28 AM
PSG had better prepare well for their upcoming matches especially after the two matches right ahead of them. Because they are going to be entering a quite tight schedule in the league.
When Champions League comes to knock out phase, every season PSG prioritize Champions League than Ligue 1 but they have yet succeeded there. They have good players and are actually strong and even had some great matches, big advantages before second-leg matches. At the end they failed in aggregated results in surprise of many fans.

Will this season be different for PSG?

Quote
There are going to be only few days between two matches until their Champions League match against Bayern Munich. PSG need to focus on leaving this period with as good results as possible. Messi, Mbappe and Neymar need to stay fit for the Bayern Munich match otherwise there will be a much tougher challenge waiting for them.

These three players are PSG's everything in the end. I hope they manage to keep these players away from injuries also. For example Neymar is quite injury-prone and he is the player about whom I'm worried the most. He has also made a huge contribution to the team so far. Hence they need him also as much as Mbappe and Messi.
Messi, Mbappe and Neymar can not bring PSG to winnings in all matches especially in Champions League. They need more than only three players with good performance to win matches and in Champions League, their whole team must play well enough and avoid mistakes that give opponent chances to beat them.

If PSG players play good as they're supposed to do, they will beat Bayern after all.
1350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: January 10, 2023, 11:38:04 AM
I believe that PSG is currently superior to Bayern at this time. Having the world cup stars brag about Messi and Mbappe's accomplishments will spur PSG on to win the Champions League, which wouldn't be bad at all. However, the fact that Bayern has won their last five games by an average score of 18 points shows how exciting the game is becoming.
They are richer than Bayern and have abundant budget for player salary, player transfers, coach salary and other spendings. They have more star players than Bayern and their squad has a younger average age than Bayern too.

They are more superior to Bayern but to win Bayern, they need more than theory and stats. If we only base on finance and strength in theory and stats, only one or two clubs in Europe can compare with them, likely Manchester City and maybe one more club Real Madrid.

Winning in their domestic leagues and in Champions League are different. Bayern and PSG are too big and dominant in their domestic leagues so winning and winning big there are not too big tasks for them. PSG are greed to win Champions League and they must prove that they are deserved to be a champions firstly by beating Bayern.

It's Terra Luna Classic with a ticker $LUNC. It has no longer been $LUNA.

Because Do Kwon and his team chose a terrible decision to protect $UST, not initial $LUNA, their team minted a lot initial $LUNA and dumped it on Binance. Price fell to the hell and their Terra Foundation Guard Treasury no longer has enough fund to compensate their users, investors. They don't have fund to buy back and burn $LUNC.

Price can not rise without buy back and burn a lot of tokens that were minted in May 2022.

Community and some exchanges are doing some buy back and burn programs but to help $LUNC recovers, those programs must continue and even with bigger budgets. Do you ask why exchanges have to do that, waive their income from trading fee to buy back and burn the token?

I think that it doesn't matter a lot whether barcelona was lucky or not, as long as barcelona was winning the match and that's more than enough. that being said that if barcelona can do better than real madrid. I meant you can compare atletico's level is still far above villareal as the previous opponent for real madrid but atletico was losing against barcelona. that proves that if barcelona is still leading the way in the la liga.
They said Barcelona were lucky because they did not believe in Barcelona, did hate Barcelona a lot. They had bad emotion when Barcelona won and they tried to criticize non sense. I know luckiness is important but Barcelona can not win many matches if they win it because of luckiness only. They must be strong enough to win many matches and luckiness only contributes in some of their winnings.

Quote
Real madrid can hope to surpass barcelona at the end of season. That would be a very important match. Madrid still has el classico that will be coming next months.
Barcelona must try to create more gap to make sure its positions was in the safe place
Real Madrid actually can surpass and beat Barcelona at the end of season. They are not weaker than Barcelona and La Liga does not end after the last week. It has been continuing with lot of surprises in future.

El Classico match is important for both Barcelona and Real Madrid but it is only a single match that is not enough to decide a winner.
1353  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: As a newbie it is better you take custody of your coins on: January 09, 2023, 02:16:29 AM
My advice to others most especially newbies is that, make sure you are holding your asset in your wallet and never trust any cryotoxurrency third parties entity with custody of your coins until you have enough knowledge to manage the risk that is associated with such services.
Wallets can be built from companies that build and provide wallet softwares only but they can come from exchanges too.

Nowadays you can see exchanges have many products to expand their ecosystems. Centralized exchanges have their decentralized exchanges and their wallets too.

For me I don't believe that any cryptocurrency wallet or decentralized exchange that is owned by a centralized exchange is non custodial wallet and really decentralized exchange. It's very logic to think so and you can agree or disagree with me but it is a good alarm for people who trust in open source, non custodial wallet and decentralized exchange launched by a centralized exchange.
1354  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Basically All Small Cap Staking Coins Had this problem on: January 09, 2023, 02:07:50 AM
With altcoins and staking, you have to lock your coins and there is risk for permanent loss from staking.

Staking and receiving rewards from staking can increase your total coins but will at the end those coins have higher value for you than what you spend initially?

Most of time staking means loss. A longer you stake, a bigger loss you will have.

I learned it from Masternode + Proof of Stake, DeFi 2.0 a lot. Staking more, locking your coins longer, getting bigger loss.

The Europa League has its own level of difficulty because it is play by teams from several leagues, not the same as what they face in the premier league.
If they feel the chances of winning the EPL title will be tough then the same will happen in the Europa League as Manchester United will be competing with the like of Freiburg, Barcelona, Feyenoord, Sociedad and Arsenal.
Europa League is at lower level than Champions League but not all matches in Europa League are easy. There are big clubs and big matches between them in Europa League. Manchester United and Barcelona matches are examples and we can watch more matches like this because many big clubs are playing in Europa League 2022 - 2023.

To win any European league, being strong is not enough, but a winner must have luckiness too.

Sevilla - PSV is going to be one of the challenging matchups in this stage of the Europa League.

This is the first ever meet of these teams with each other. I'm seeing PSV one step ahead truthfully. Because Sevilla have been terrible for a long time period since the beginning of the season. They just defeated Getafe in the La Liga and finally got a win after a long break. I don't know if they can improve their form very much until the first leg here. But it will be a really difficult for them to be completely ready until then. PSV are already one of the decent teams of the tournament. Sevilla are a big threat on paper because of their history here maybe. But realistically, they aren't better than PSV for now.
They are both good clubs and needless to say, Sevilla are a most successful club in Europa League history.

Many people can feel shocked if they know Sevilla have won 6 Europa League trophies in history and all of those trophies come from 2006 to 2020. A next club behind Sevilla in Europa League history is Inter Milan with 3 titles.

If Real Madrid is a king of Champions League, Sevilla is a king of Europa League. PSV will have more stress and pressure when playing against Sevilla.

After Real Madrid lost to Villarreal and lost three points, today Barcelona has a good opportunity to become the leader in the standings. But it would probably be easy if today's opponent was not Atletico Madrid. What is most interesting is that Atletico have drawn four of their last five home games, while Barcelona have won four of their last five away games. It's hard for me to predict who will win tonight. I don't rule out a draw.
Even Villareal has a very good season but this winning is unexpected and I am so surprised to see Real Madrid lost like this. It is a first defeat of Real Madrid against Villareal after 74 years. It's a very long time since their previous loss to Villareal.

Although this shocked defeat of Real Madrid gives Barcelona a great chance to take over a first position in La Liga, their opponent is Atletico Madrid that are strong too. Barcelona usually have difficulty when they meet Atletico Madrid. Because the two layer defensive style of Atletico Madrid is very incompatible for Barcelona style.

Both clubs are no longer have their best attacking and defensive abilities but their match will still be big, exciting and unpredictable.
1357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 08, 2023, 11:55:58 AM
Ac.Milan - Roma = a game of all or nothing for Ac.Milan if they still want to chase Napoli for the title but I doubt Roma will give them an easy match but Milan have the stadium advantage.  Cool
Interesting. It is a big match between two big clubs that want to chase something.

AC Milan want to chase Napoli in a race for Scudetto. AS Roma want to chase other clubs above them including AC Milan. This match would be very great but with Mourinho, I believe that Roma won't play this match too opened. Very few goals can be scored in this match.

Roma did not have good stats in San Siro so maybe it can be a win for AC Milan.



This is one of the big matches in Serie A, both teams have had a pretty good performance this season. However, on paper, AC Milan is still superior regardless of being the host, moreover, this is a match they must win in order to be closer to the top of the standings and be able to close on Napoli. Looking at the 5 Head to Head matches of the two teams, AC milan is still ahead with 4 wins, 1 draw and 0 wins for As Roma. So I think AC milan will win, but AS Roma doesn't seem to want to lose this game either.
I agree too. With San Siro as a home stadium, AC Milan will very likely beat Roma and continue their race with Napoli. Roma if losing this match, they will have more difficult to chase a spot in top four for ECL next season.

Mourinho can let his team play a very defensive match and wait for counter attacking with Dybala, Zaniolo and Pellegrini.
1358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 08, 2023, 11:48:58 AM
That's true! Lucky United so far as they didn't show anything new or a great football style so I think this 2 winning streak will end next game as personally I don't see United catching an UCL spot for next year and that would be a great payback for Ronaldo treatment Cheesy.
UCL spot is a dream for Manchester United and currently they have good chance to take it but I agree with you, at the end maybe they won't get it. Many clubs in Premier League want that UCL spots and they can take it too. United have so many competitors and they are not better than competitors.

Quote
City needs points without a doubt and I don't see Pep giving up so easily on EPL title and he will find a way to boost his team back on feet and make them score and win games.
City still have good difference with Arsenal so it is too soon to give up the Premier League title to Arsenal. Pep knows that his squad is strong enough to beat Arsenal in rest of season. Things can be changed a lot with only 5 points different between two top clubs.

Quote
Arsenal...no one wants to face them right now as whoever face them , ends up losing.
They can not win against all opponents but right now, they are creating fear on their opponents. Want it or not, opponents must play against Arsenal and some day Arsenal will lose matches. They can not avoid it in a long season.
1359  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 07, 2023, 10:55:32 AM
There is a 4 point difference between them and Manchester City.  Next week, the Red Devils will host Manchester City.  If they win that match, then the cards are dealt again in the league.  The point difference with Manchester City is reduced to 1.  Considering that Newcastle United are playing 1 more game right now, they will play the most important game of this year.  It will be more of a showdown for Rashford.
It is a good difference to give hope to Manchester United and their fans. Their hope looks bigger than in the past with Ole as their coach. Ten Hag is a better coach than Ole and he had some achievement in his career with Ajax Amsterdam while Ole got nothing before his time in Manchester United.

I agree that Manchester United have so good form recently but again, I believe they will make their fans disappointed again.

it is very possible that the Manchester Derby will be very fierce considering that the two teams are already in the same performance.
Manchester United have been in good form lately and with the match to be played at Old Trafford it makes it difficult for Manchester City to win.
Looking at defenders and defense system of Manchester United, I believe that Manchester City will break it down with Haaland. He is a perfect striker to beat Manchester United defenders who are either too low (Martinez) or too slow (Maguire). This derby will bring a Premier League trophy competition back to only two clubs, Arsenal and Manchester City.

In my opinion, Bayern Munich will not want to hire an old goalkeeper.  Maybe they can think of it as a backup goalkeeper, but they can sign one of the younger and potential players.  Bayern definitely need a goalkeeper after Neuer.  I think this will be a young and potential goalkeeper, not Sommer.
If they can choose from options, they will do it by choosing a potential young goalkeeper. It is good for their plans in many years and matches with their strategy. However, they won't have too many choices in January market. I am thinking that Bayern will have to choose a goalkeeper who is not too old but no longer young enough as a temporary replacement for Neuer.

Because the alternative goalkeeper is not too young but not too old, Bayern will have a next summer and maybe two more seasons to find other goalkeepers who should be young. If not Sommer, they can consider Livakovic (Croatia) who is absolutely good in my opinion.
