Damn man, how the hell did you get 5 exact scores? This already feels like highest points yellow cap reward secured for you if we don't get some crazy double game weeks with shitload of games.

Now that I wrote this I realized I haven't posted final rewards yet. I usually leave it a few weeks into the new season to see if we have some late joiners. I'll officially close the pool with first day of September and then post those exact rewards. Same goes for La Liga pool as well.

Thanks man, yeah, I know it's way too early in the season for EPL to throw in the towel but I feel like first few absent weeks is going to really hard to come back from, but surprisingly I'm not doing too shitty in here, preseason expectations more or less hit I guess.

5 exact scores is a monster man, this LTU guy is tearing up every league so far.

Best I ever did was 6 exact scores, and if you can believe it, that was the very first Superbru week I ever played, 5 seasons ago in EPL when hilarious first opened Superbru.

Who else got ruined by Napoli?

Everybody i think, and for me also destroy my bets, BTTS and a most crazy one, corners in the second half, they only trowh one corner, i really cant believe.

Yesterday i was thinking how bad its the Juventus right now, they draw against Sampdoria, and Salernitana put a 4-0 without suffer against them.

From what I remember, I never had 5 exact scores in Serie A. In other leagues probably not too. Yeah, I'm doing way much better than I expected in all leagues, except La Liga. But probably I'm going to jinx my luck with this post .
From pool results seems that everyone got ruined by Napoli .
Don't forget to make your picks for midweek round.

What midweek round, there is no midweek round and absolutely no need to check Superbru before Friday. Using Jedi mind trick here in hope to dominate feeble minded and catching up with all the bastards in front of me 

Joking aside, I am doing way better in pools that are not run by me. A bit embarrassing but it is what it is.

Yeah, what midweek round? Check Superbru on Saturday, don't waste your time because Friday games you won't win anyway and you do have default pick which will probably earn you more points than if you picked.

Bastards all hot and heavy this 1/8 of the season, I'm catching up on the leagues and reading when I can, I'm doing better than I should here and in La Liga, but paid a heavy price in EPL so far.

We'll see, am sure you bastards will trip and stumble

Man what a performance from you in this round, i go to check how far im from the first spot and i noticed im behind 15 point, and i said to myself, when pass this?.
And i see only in this round you got 10 points ahead of me.

Yes its good to have matches in the midweek, but also you have to take care to not forgot to made the picks.

congrats man, 5 exact scores is a result to be proud of, don't remember that I saw it earlier either

midweek started with Milan playing goalless with Sassuolo, not sure what was to be expected, but I am usually missing Sassuolo results, so this one is getting to be forgotten as well, Inter and Rome are up against newcomers, and will probably finish that way

I have a little punt on Ciro Immobile and Lazio later today. Genoa is one of his favorite spots to score goals, he was close on a few occasions against Inter over the weekend (fri). I can see him get a goal or two vs that swiss cheese defense of Sampdoria who will be desperate for a positive result after a disastrous start of the season, no goals scored after 3 GWs, and 4-0 loss vs. Salernitana.

source: https://www.gazzetta.it/calcio/serie-a/partita/sampdoria-lazio/2302479/

Ciro Immobile scored 14 goals against Sampdoria in Serie A, against no team he did better, having scored as many goals against Genoa: in fact, from 2013/14 onwards he was the player who, as an opponent, scored the most goals at Luigi Ferraris stadium in the top flight (14).

should score, but combined odds are a bit bigger than Lazio to win, and that one has better value, considering Samp form, and goalless after three round, if Immobile scores, it is basically a Lazio win

looking at team, Provedel on goal, no reserve keeper on bench, this could be a short episode for Maximiano in Lazio, after red card and losing first keeper spot

[darxiaomi]

Well i still doing really bad this round, i fail in the mayority of matches.

The only good its a lot more of people in the pool its strugglin also.

Sampdoria...... they draw against Juventus and now against Lazio but lose 4-0 vs Salernitana.

[buwaytress]

So this Koopmeiners guy, going to be a new hero for Atalanta? Have to admit had never really known much of him until his hattrick last night, suppose there's always some random Dutch/Belgian guy who's going to hit it big in one of the big European leagues minus England, huh?

Not doing well in any of the pools, going to try and get smart with the Milan derby!

[buwaytress]

A bit of a quiet thread this season? Or maybe need to inject some excitement by someone like me climbing up after spending some time near the bottom?

Milan was beautiful for me yesterday, got the exact score on that, but was a bit too cheeky and took Lazio by the same scoreline. Sassuolo are letting me down right now too... now need to score 2 to save me.

Sassuolo letting me down as well, don't care about the pool so much but I have one high stake multi and my first game on it is Sassuolo both to score. There was some nice chances in this game, especially for Sassuolo but nothing ended up in the net so far. Hate it when I loose my ticket on first leg, then I have to deposit and play the remaining games again and I don't even have insurance

[buwaytress]

^ Yeah, but can't really tell which I hate more sometimes. Losing the first leg so I know it's all over, or losing the final leg and feeling like an idiot for not cashing out (I need to learn to use cashout sometimes!!!).

If anyone saw Roma losing the way they did last night, please let me know, I want to get some advice on lottery tickets. This weekend's draw is 21 million+. Mou is definitely using up some of his brownie points from last season early!

I definitely prefer loosing on last game. When I loose my main ticket I immediately play another one and that leads to big loses on bad days. Of course it works out sometimes but it is a practice I should remove from my game. Loosing on last game also means you can defend it or I get free bet back from insurance.

Roma was really strange one, I wanted to include that game on the ticket but couldn't decide between Roma win and both to score. Was afraid Udinese could hold them to a scoring draw. In the end skipped the game which proved to be a good decision.

[morvillz7z]

Now that the Premier League matches are off for the weekend, fans can tune in and watch up close Kvaradona against Spezia tomorrow, just like Trent and Joe Gomez did midweek, spectators...

Spalletti is unlikely to rotate his squad as he did against Lecce, which means he will play most of his starters, including Khvicha Kvaratskhelia...that name, though.

As it stands, after 5 matches, Napoli has the most goals, the most shots attempted, and the highest npxG+xA per 90 minutes in the league.  Losing to Spezia at home the last time these two met should be added motivation to cap off a great week with yet another solid win.

That being said, i've Napoli to win and to score in both halves at around 1.85

I just lost my last game in UCL (Liverpool) and yeah I got my freebet from insurance, but still feel extremely bummed out. Cashout would have gotten me 8/1 but of course, by the time Liverpool were losing early, Cashout was not worth it.

I added Inter and Napoli to my 5-leg acca today. Seems like an easy decision, looking at their opposition, but you never know.

Napoli will probably disappoint everyone after that brilliant show...

it would be business-as-usual for them
but, I do not think that they will disappoint on weekend, opponent is far from lousy, but not good enough to made them mess (although happens all the time for Napoli)

my eyes are on Milan to win first on a side today, they have 100% home wins, and 100% away draws so far, that dynamic should change, and Samp is a good chance, looking at their form

Napoli have started brilliantly in their competitions this season, but I understand where the OP is coming from, and I've been there a lot of times, because just like Atalanta, Napoli have also made an habit of disappointing when you least expect it from the them.

That said, I don't think this is the game week that either team will disappoint bettors, they have started well so far despite playing a couple of tough fixtures too, they got relevant results and are both yet to record a loss.

The odds for both Napoli and Atalanta to win is @ ~1.80 Odds, I think that's of value, given that they both play Spezia and Cremonese respectively.

[Trofo]

I had a bet on Milan ML and this is first time in a long time that I won bet on Serie A that wasn't my usual BTTS. If only I did not change my pool prediction from 1:2 to 0:2 it would be even better.

Lost my first ticket on Inter BTTS, mainly because of Handanović saves, Torino plays good football and I am expecting them to fight for European places this season.
