⚽ Sportsbet.io ⚽ Italian Serie A ⚽ Football Pool Discussion Thread 2023/2024

[buwaytress]

I went AC Milan as well, but would I be unfair to say Atalanta deserved better from the match? All in all, it was quite entertaining to watch and at least I can also boast of my first winning player of the game round.

No you wouldn't. One thing I noticed yesterday also, after Bayern, Real and PSG all lost their perfect records, is that 3 teams in Serie A are still without a loss blemish on their record. I know it's only early season but you normally expect this from former champions and not from the upstarts that are currently topping the table!

Sign of good things to come perhaps eh?

Just can't seem to get a hang of predictions in this league as well for la liga.
Double spoons is not a good start.
Atleast there is the second international break so to reset on things.
Got to remember big teams are that way and the tiny ones don't always get the upset as easily in other groups.
Next set of matches are on the 16th according to superbru.
So plenty of time to analyze those next set of picks for the pool.

It all started so well for me ... I even held out for several rounds at the top, but the last couple of rounds were extremely unpredictable, dropping me right into the middle of the table.

Just now I noticed this ... who would have thought that the defeat of such top clubs would happen on the same day.

Nevertheless, I hope Napoli will cheat karma.

No one. I even actually bet just one underdog (Bayern) and won it. That was 18/1. PSG to lose was "only" 6/1 and Real also "only" 7/1. Which is why I totally overlooked them.

A parlay would have netted almost 800/1. Who would have thought eh?

I wish Maradona were around to see Napoli. But I always thought their revival actually had something to do with it.

would also like to see Napoli to get the trophy, but it is looking as far as possible, with them on the top, I do not see them hold there
Inter has better team and longer bench for long-race, and Milan could be in the race as well (although they looking crap in CL, and they will probably leave the competition after group stage, which could be a plus for Serie A competition)

others do not seem serious this season, Roma - I am looking at you, expected more from Mo in the league that suits his play, but did not delivered so far

^Just so long as Juve does not lift the trophy and they have never been weaker. I would love for Atalanta to get their hands on Championship this season, they deserve one big trophy for the games they have given us throughout past few years but it is never gonna happen. Napoli would also be a great champion, too get all those crazy supporters out on the streets again.

Realistically though, Inter must be considered as top favorite, especially now when Dzeko started the season in superb form. That was one position I was afraid they will have problems finding player to properly replace Lukaku.

The times of Maradonna were golden ... before there was simple and hardcore football, now the game strategies are much more complicated than before, there are more touches, the clubs have more money ... oh. By the way, before the Champions League matches, I will try again my hand at multi-bets with a thousandfold odds, so see you next week.

I have no idea who will take it, it's really that open. I actually backed Napoli a couple of seasons ago when they were really looking like a resurgent side but then they destroyed themselves internally.

I missed watching those simple days indeed, but only through videos I can get a glimpse. But football was also simpler locally where I grew up. You knew where players came from, they were local lads you'd see in the cafes and on the roads. Coach and players all celebrated with us all in the city. Those were the days.

Good luck with your 1000x I have yet to even try a real 100x (specials don't count!)

I try them every so often when there is lots of games to choose from for minimal stake. You know how many times I won it? Just once in 15 years of betting. I still remember it well, it was friday night and all those games from Dutch 2 league and France league 2. Odds were around 940, maybe 10 or 12 games.

[Trofo]

Bump!

Hey guys don't forget to put in your predictions. We will have a couple of great matches this week. Mainly derby between Lazio and Milan on Saturday and then another derby between Juve and Roma. I know what my bet is gonna be, both to score on both games for sure, should be easy money. Waiting for my multi insurance to come online so I can play one early ticket for the whole week.

[casperBGD]

there were International matches, so this topic is again out from first page

just got Superbru reminder, so to reminder all the others, put your picks for the weekend, not much to look for, but Lazio with Binance on shirts is playing crypto derby with Inter, that is sponsored by Socios
Milan is playing Verona, should be an easy one for goals, and Sunday night derby between Juventus and Roma, both teams being down before the break

There is a lot of speculation with Verona and AC Milan, as many have been somewhat irreverent and are betting in favor of Verona, however I think that AC Milan is a team that is still very complete and has a history.

And this is one of the predictions of how things are going, of course now Verona has another way of playing and some are betting that he can beat them and it is very possible. Although I am a person who knows the breed of AC Milan and that they may be having a bad time and for now some vulnerability can be seen but I do not think it is strong enough to allow itself to be defeated, without detracting from Verona.

Thanks as the last international break seemed to run too long.
Managed to put my picks in at a frantic pace because after over a week long absence you would think the players would be sort of out of their form.
So we will see how the top teams perform against the lower teams on the table.

Didn't get the reminder but was waiting day by day so to leave it to the last day putting them in.
It was news to me to know about Binance getting into the sponsorship market now.
I think they are feeling the heat of FTX as another exchange to take on the role of brand ambassador of the other sports ie, baseball & F1.

We see these signs most of the times and it turns out a massive failure
Sometimes, i use to say football is almost unpredictable because when it comes to LEAGUES', everyone waxes strong to see how they could also be called the 'TITANS'  
This is reality don't always forget,it could be the beginning of success or doom but the point is; that fact isn't guaranteed

[buwaytress]

ibuprofen the only one who saw Lazio winning this: well done man, shame you only got a "close" one but being the only one to score points in a pool is like treasure in any way (also because of slam points!). Me last season would have picked Lazio over Inter even then but me this season is trying to force myself to play with common sense, and so far it's keeping me in the running. hahay still holding the lead, lucky he picked a draw at Spezia so we catch up a little =D

yeah, I have put Lazio to win in our special, so did not want to put it in the pool as well
it was not expected to see Lazio winning this match, but they played great in second half

what to say about Milan, they are two goals down with Verona in the first half, so it would be double-zero for Milano tonight

[icopress]

It looks like I'm not the only one disappointed with today's game of Milan and Inter.  

Only Napoli remains unbeaten so far and I hope that their unbeaten streak will continue ... although I admit if Napoli wins again, then I will seriously think about a martingale for a draw or a defeat for Napoli, (given that the likelihood that Napoli will set a unbeaten record this season is to zero), ^{[although that would be cool]}.

Well, they came around and pulled us all out of misery, didn't they Milan?

So it's still Napoli and Milan left now to keep their perfect record, and I wonder if Milan will now benefit from supercharged confidence after such a comeback (also the game was 19 on Blackjack, so close!).

You and me are now considering betting against Napoli and Milan then. I am not going to go for double chance though, would rather just bet on a loss and martingale from there. Haha.

2 close plus 1 exact for me yesterday, so I cannot ask for a better average, I stay 11 points away from the top hahay who has maintained his position,,, not bad for my first time I guess to pick scores like in this way of following the leaders

rdbase what is your strategy?

yeah, it was a easy round for favorites in the end, Milan has a glitch in first half, but made it in the end, and all others goes as foreseen
missed Lazio, or to put it better, did not want to put Lazio to win in all competitions, so missed their win in the pool

Napoli won another one
and in the end, all comes to number of exact scores, for a this round position, I am third in this round before last match, but overall pretty low, nearing the bottom
