I can't find historical results, Superbru career page only shows Global ranking... top 50% in my first season, then top 2% in second season, then top 40% last season. Must be an alternating pattern, so I'm winning this pool this season? Haha

AFAIK Superbru doesn't hold historical results, but didn't looked through TBH
nevertheless, I do remember that I was good last season till WC, and then had a slide, just as this season

new round, new chance, Inter in top form, they are lining 4:0 wins, as this is not Calcio, and expected wins/results are 1:0, or low scoring
more interesting will be to see will Juve hold on 2nd position, and who will end-up being 4th, Bologna has a shot, but I don't expect them to hold on that

Would you believe me I have very little idea about the teams in Serie A and LaLiga. I watch EPL and this year my predictions in EPL became shit. Whatever I pick, I find myself at the wrong side that's why I am not regular in the EPL thread like I used to. Even I have a side bet with CLS63 and it seems I am going to lose 0.015 BTC. Good thing about this season is Liverpool is the leader of the point table.

As Bitcoin price has increased compared to the beginning of the season our side bet has become more important. However as there isn't still a serious point difference between us and there is a quite long time for the end of the season, I'm sure that you will have plenty of chances to turn the tables.

I'm also going on terrible in the Serie A pool. It will make me quite happy to win at least a yellow cap until the end of the season.

Congrats indeed! I feel like we see less and less of this user, was active before in EPL pool, hope everything's ok Your performance pushed you into deserved top 10, I thought I might get another chance to improve but still in 11th position, due to you and KTChampions jumping 2 spots. Getting harder every round, the key teams here are Lazio, Torino, Roma, pick their form at the right moment and it will go well.

I totally believe you. I only follow La Liga, and guess what, among the 3 big league football pools, I'm the lowest position there. In fact last season I won a prize in F1 pool, and I didn't even know how the rules were, I just picked following Form Record.

You should really join BSFL. That's where knowledge has a better chance.

Enjoy your freebet! The best thing for me in all of these pools for me is even if you don't get into winning position, you just need one week of yellow cap, and you covered your fee

no comments related to Bologna, but their win over Atalanta is quite a surprise for me, and does lead to a question can they hold to CL spot till the end
would be interesting to see Bologna in Champions league, dough

Napoli won over Juventus, they are back in form, and will probably chase above mentioned Bologna till last second for CL spot
Juventus and Milan will fight out that runner-up

but Cagliari made important win over Empoli, to stay in relegation fight, all other teams won as well, so Sassuolo is closing their road to Serie B, after having several good and interesting seasons in Serie A

Sorry state of affairs for Atalanta? Nah, just a blip. Lookman still has it, and I'm still putting in 2-3 goals for them almost every selection week, such was the effectiveness of offence I've been used to over the past few seasons. Bologna's win does take away the sheen from previous victory of Inter, but we shouldn't forget they've been posting impressive stats in the new year. Perhaps Sporting is distracting them?

Still slightly annoyed Osimhen missed the penalty...

Congrats to Kanapka for winning the Round 27 Yellow Cap

it was not easy to find this topic buried on 6 page in Gambling section
but here it is, bumped to top

Cagliari won important match against Salernitana, that could see it bumped in one moment, and space travelled from 18th to 13th position
ok, with a game in hand
but speaks a lot about relegation fight in Italy, half a league involved
Sassuolo also won important fixture against Frosinone, it looked that they are slipping already, but changed that today

Inter polished their title over Bologna, no draws this season, W only

Not perfect words to be said by pool captain but I sort of lost interest in this one. Bottom of the pool, not betting on Serie A any more since results are so strange (at least to me), not watching since anything I watched was super boring.

Up to you guys to keep it alive, I am giving my 100% focus to Premier League this season

I'm actually continually surprised to be in a good position for this pool, despite results not going my way all the time, it seems here in this pool almost everyone has the same idea, not like Spanish and English pools.

Maybe this lack of different opinions is what makes the page buried sometimes

Spain is the enigma, but Italy is the most balanced. Just looking at the last few seasons, Juventus is not longer the favorite while title changed hands with so many teams, Inter resurgence. Did any of us imagine this? For sure not me.

I don't understand how a mediocre coach like D'Aversa (relegated with Parma last season)....

Despite the poor start to the season, i don't think they'll get relegated. They have a decent squad and most importantly, Giampaolo (he along with D'Aversa might be the worst coaches in Italian football) is no longer with the team.

My boy Roberto d'Aversa is hitting new highs in his illustrious coaching career:

🟡🔴 Serie A side Lecce have decided to sack the manager Roberto d’Aversa after he headbutted Verona striker Thomas Henry yesterday.

The thing is that no one wants to coach shit teams in Serie A anymore, the same 5-6 names are recycled over and over. He'll be back in a year or two, mark my words.

[buwaytress]

Of course I'm keeping this thread quiet, quietly in the top 10 and trying to climb higher. It seems to be my only clear chance at a prize, so I prefer if the rest of you just forget about it and leave it to me.

Should have known Juve/Napoli would be a draw...

My boy Roberto d'Aversa is hitting new highs in his illustrious coaching career:  

And they say Prem League is where the drama's at. What drama? The two rival coaches of the best teams embrace before and after every match, while in Turkey and Italy, coaches are invoking the spirit of Cantona haha.

it is a bit off-topic here, but they should be knocked-out, when they can't score two goals at home
but Porto has issues scoring from penalty spot as well, not just game-wise

I am not losing interest in competition what so ever, just adjusting goals to lower spots, good to be in paying spots, but not possible on each pool

[buwaytress]

I knew this Friday waa going to start of things in either regular Italian fashion or modern Serie A scorelines so I went right down the middle for 2 nil.

And slid down a position. Heh. Now matter, weekend smells of good things. No draws please.

Not looking good for me as the defending champion of the league in the leaderboard rn though, but maybe 10 weeks is still a long ride to grab a spot on the podium, but not with the level of consistency of the competition here would I be able to without some premium level of consistency myself either.

NB; is it my eyes playing tricks or Saint-loup is actually a force to reckon with across almost all pool this season, the name seem to be really sticking out commonly across every top places in almost all leagues, or have I just seen him get mentioned one too many in them threads ?

Vlahovic got a red card in the end, and Juventus missed on important points, seems that they gave up on title fight, and now just trying to stay in top4, to reach Champions league

Milan on the other hand stroked Verona, and took a gift from Juventus on a plate, climbing on position 2
Cagliari lost to Monza yesterday, it was a tough match, finished 1:0, and closed Cagliari to relegation zone, fight it out

How the hell people get that many correct scores in week like this? I have 4 points and consider all the results to be total surprises and then I see what some of you scored  Definitely not my best league this season  Should just stop trying to be logical about it and pick by throwing coins or something
