[Swordsoffreedom]

Are we missing to talk about the unstoppable ac milan? They seems forgot how the feeling to lost damn another good winning with 3 goals difference.

Ac Milan is a world class team .They always play exciting and attacking football . I always try to watch their matches .And bet on their every mathes . The only one team that has not disappointed me yet .In yesterday's match, AC Milan did not give any chance to their opponent Sparta Praha to score .

I think Mourinho was wrong when he didn’t put players like Son Heung-min, Harry Kane and Lucas Moura to play right at the beginning of the game, I didn’t watch that game because I was busy watching another game, but from what I could see on summary of the game and the line of players who were at the beginning of the game, I realized that it was not a good experiment that mourinho did and it cost him a defeat against a team that they could win

Yay me,,, I lost again betting on my beautiful Spurs. I will probably double bet down on them in EPL though and martingale till I win,,, NOT. Odds are always below 2/1 if Spurs are expected to win so I will lose in 3/4 streaks and get poor if I put all my trust in Mou's boys:)

Calculated gamble in a group game I guess and he lost,,, too bad. We move on.

it was not only Tottenham, there was a lot of surprising results last night, Roma, Feyenoord and Leverkusen to mention a few
think that some teams are not that interested in group phase, other train their teams in group phase, do not play full effort, and just trying to pass through into next phase
i have put some small amount on Napoli, since they lost in the first round, and they proved worth the money, winning match in Spain

[daarul50]

Shame on as roma, with that low odds they failed to even score a single goal

They tried with some substitutions but it was just bad, except they hit bar once and had few more chances but not enough to beat anyone today.
Maybe they are thinking more about Seria A and next match with Fiorentina.

I have extremely low expectations from Europa league so I always bet on it just for beer money.

Same here.
Not all teams are even motivated to play in Europa League, so I keep my stakes low here and just for fun.

I believe a tough and tight schedule become the reson why as roma and other clubs in top 5 european league flop in the first 2 or 3 games
They will have to get used to the special covid fixtures soon otherwise there will be a lot more surprise results.
Since europa league held in a single day and there a lot of matches played at once
I prefer to stake low and play a lot combination of parlay that is the way to have a real fun.

I can't find a single game where I say "I need to watch this"  

Lolol.  Right?!  It's mostly just filler between the CL midweek fixtures and the league fixtures at the weekends.  I'd rather UEFA get rid of it and expand the CL...  There are good spots to get some bets in tho.

Edit:  Wtf?  Spurs lost??  I didn't look at all the results.

*Looks at results*

They did!  Lawl.

The UEFA will rather create another competition than getting rid of an existing one.

And on one hand I can unterstand that you guys don't find any matches worth watching during the group stages. But simply expanding the CL with the better teams (that attract the most viewers) won't help all the smaller teams. For them and in particular for their players the Europa League can be a great platform to present themselves. And - even though that's something you could easily forget in these strange times - every team has its fans that enjoy these Europa League matches, a neutral fan would find boring to watch.

[Pulsar77]

This is why I don't like betting on Europa League matches. We see many surprising things happening. For example, Spurs couldn't win and Lille has lost 2 points yesterday.

[tyz]

I just set my bet slip for Europe League matches tonight.

Feyenood Rotterdam vs Wolfsberger # win Feyenood @ 1.71
AEK Athena vs Leichester # win Leichester @ 1.71
Granada vs PAOK # double chance PAOK @ 2.05

What do you think?

No opinion, but two of three worked out with a small profit. Surprisingly, Feyenood lost 1-4 against Wolfsberg, what is the most surprise at the entire match day. Leichester won 1-2 against Athens as expected and PAOK made a draw against Granada, so both were won.

Thats some good news for Juventus,we seen how Juventus missed him in the last few matches,with Juventuses weakest team in last 10 years they need Ronaldo badly to play every match.

[jostorres]

Last night was not really that great for gamblers and not really good for favorite teams neither. Leverkusen failed to win, Roma failed to win, Tottenham totally got humiliated by a much much lower team, Feyenord was destroyed and thorn into pieces, it was really a bloodbath out there this week.

I know there were some expected wins there as well but these teams were given under 2.0 odds for how favorites they were and they all got destroyed so badly, it was like a nightmare for sportsbook gamblers and it was like a dream come true for all the sportsbooks around the world. However I have a feeling that since this already happened, a repeat will probably not happen, these type of "wake up" games are needed to shake some things in some teams to make them play much better next time around with some anger.

[AakZaki]

i'm gonna jump on the AC Milan bandwagon today even though it's very likely that the team's gonna rotate some players today so, we might not see Ibra...
~snip~

They still need Ibra, so maybe he will keep playing in my opinion. Ibra has great stats scoring seven goals in five games, not playing them is something I think is risky. If Stefano Piolo wants to give him a break, I think he can start from the reserves or replace him at a certain minute. As for the score, I think Milan will win by just one goal difference.

He may be healed, but the question is whether problems will remain permanently like so many infected people who still complain weeks and months later about shortness of breath, reduced performance or loss of taste. It will be really interesting to see if Ronaldo can continue to maintain this high level of performance as before his illness.

I do not agree. I think Europe needs a two-tier competition. If you expand the Champions League and then suddenly have a lot of bad teams competing, it would be a big loss of quality and marketing. Then the same thing would happen as at the UEFA European Championship, where the quality of the games has decreased rapidly since the increase of the starting places. People watch the CL because they want to see matches like Bayern vs PSG, not Apollon Limassol vs. Lech Posen,

People also watch these competitions because they want to see their local clubs, from Croatia, Hungary, Albania, Bosnia etc. 
Clearly, these clubs are not interesting to sponsors but what do you suggest as a solution?
Create a European Super League only for rich clubs from England, Spain, Italy, Germany and France, as some already suggest and wants?
Should wealth and material power be the only criteria for clubs to participate in the strongest European competitions?
What about sports criteria?

The only one team that has not disappointed me yet .In yesterday's match, AC Milan did not give any chance to their opponent Sparta Praha to score .

Milan is doing great so far and their team looks really compact. From what I've see this season they could even have a chance for the title if things keep developing like this. Juve is still sleeping and Inter is not looking that good.

As far as the match that was most important to me. Dinamo Zagreb managed not to lose against CSKA and I consider that a great result all things considering.

Sigle-day 24 matches ... that's delicious one to make some parlay combinations.

What about making Half of it (12 games) as a parlay both teams to score?

Bayer Leverkusen
Tottenham Hotspur
Napoli
Roma
Sivasspor
AC Milan
Arsenal
BSC Young Boys Bern
Dinamo Zagreb
Hoffenheim
Leicester City
Villarreal 

These are my picks. All for both teams to score , the odds approx : x1,889

[Chrystora123]

Today the European League has a lot of games that should not miss, my pick for today bet..

• H Beer Sheva vs Leverkusen   (2 odds)
• Real Sociedad vs AZ Alkmaar
• Ludogorets vs Tottenham (2 odds)
• Roma vs CFR Cluj (1 odds)   
• Rijeka vs Napoli    (2 odds)
• Villarreal vs M Tel Aviv  (1 odds)
• Arsenal vs Molde    (1 odds)   
• Leicester vs Braga  (1 odds)
• AC Milan vs Lille

*Lets Fun..

AC Milan vs Lille has only met twice so far and that happened in 2006. At that time, in two matches, Milan couldn't win. The best results is draw 0-0 However, from the meeting of the two coaches, Pioli and Galtier, this will be the 4th meeting, where Pioli has never lost. It will be quite an interesting game to waiting for, the predictions lead for AC Milan.
