Well odds on Barca are shit for a reason. Barca was much better whole first half and already had 11 shots while Sociedad had only one and than to make it worse Sociedad got a red card at the end of a half. This should be Barca ML easy.

I am not betting anything on Sevilla, I have been burnt by them too many times. I just know it will go opposite of my prediction. Just glad I don't have to put result in Superbru so I can ignore this one completely.

Maybe it doesn't reflect in score, but Barca had very solid game. Only problem was converting their dominance into goals. Minimal 1:0 lead is so tricky and Sociedad had 3 very dangerous moments to make score 1:1. But Ter Stegen saved it.
Yeah, it's good that we don't have to pick predictions on Ossasuna - Sevilla game, after 1st half it's 0:0 there. Tomorrow two very interesting games - Valencia - Athletic and Real - Atletico. And they can't make these games in different time slots...

Told you to keep away from Sevilla, they are finding new ways to disappoint every week  

Keepeing away from Valencia - Bilbao but if I had to play something here I would choose Bilbao to qualify. Valencia is on my blacklist for a good reason. Real derby is more interesting for me and I think there should be goals in it so taking my favourite both to score market.

Yeah! They even tried to play Bono in second half only and that's actually when they conceded. This and Valencia are just two teams never to bet on this season (although cup games and Europe they may perform differently, but then a result like this makes us confirm the avoidance!!).

Problem is in predictions it's hard to go against them.

I'm going for a direct Real win today and I know Atletico already scored 3 but I'm not confident of them away in derby. Modric did not start last 2 games, Kroos also the last one, I have a feeling in preparation for games like this. May we both win

[casperBGD]

Osasuna was good enough to qualify, but they had to conceive last minute to go to extra-time and crash some bets in the process, Sevilla is hit hard this season

regarding Valencia, not betting on them, but I think that we can kick-out Bilbao tonight, it is a home pitch, and cup matches are our stuff obviously

Its the luck of Real Madrid never-failing?

Its incredible, they dont play good at all, but always manage to make the way to win. Yes i know they have the players to do that but always they are saved its out of the charts.

Savic... what an idiot, no words.

If it were to be during the ancient days, I'm sure with number of these types of comeback they've had it would have been considered to involve some sort of things beyond just natural phenomenon.

It has become a trademark for them to play not distinctively brilliant football, and go one or two goals down, only to stage another dramatic comeback, if there is any team worth betting on illogically when trailing or losing a game, it's definitely Real Madrid, and they've had numerous victims over the last decade, Atletico Madrid has been their biggest and favorite victim.

Sorry for you casper, honestly do. No odds below 5/1 can ever tempt me to put money on Valencia again this season, not even at home. Did wish they could rescue their season with Copa del Rey, though.

Also wish Real would have won this outright. We meet them in about 3 weeks and I would rather they start winning now, rather than keep playing crap, so they don't see us as a punching bag heh.

Seems like we could be headed for an El Clasico final huh?

I believe 3 weeks is actually a lot of time for Liverpool to possibly get better, most of the injured players in the team are already approaching their respective return to full recovery and with that Liverpool will be pretty much more competitive, so it's going to be a very open game, and depending on outcome of the first leg I likely would have my money on Liverpool to advance to next stage.

Seems like we could be headed for an El Clasico final huh?

Yes, all things being considered we should get an EL Classico final, that should be a nice match up, wouldn't it ? because it's been a while we had an El Classico knockout fixture, let alone a final. I hope it does happen, honestly.

[Trofo]

Perfect predictiona for me yesterday, just hope somebody followed. I am mad at myself for not actually putting money on Bilbao but better to win smaller than to not win at all. Both to score in other game was enough for multi.

Madrid derby went as expected and I am happy Modrić recovered from WC and put a very good performance over whole 120 minutes.

Yeah, I thought Atletico would have trouble scoring but they actually put it in early. And as expected Modric well rested and was one of the highest rated players on the field.

Rodrygo's goal was amazing... but I think more amazing is Atletico allowing him to jink through the defense like that.

And btw Suarez scored quite a beautiful goal to win the game for Gremio in final minute. 2 games, 2 goals, both to win the game. I miss him

Sorry for you casper, honestly do.

grim season for me, I have my 5 European teams that I support for 30+ years (Everton(EPL), Valencia(LL), Leverkusen(BL), Cagliari(C) and Auxerre(L1)) and this is probably worst season overall

Auxerre relegated long time ago, after Guy Roux era, and will go down one more time, Cagliari relegated last year, Everton is in relegation zone this season, Valencia and Leverkusen are not within top table part
didn't use to getting trophies, but European competitions were almost standard for several teams, now barely one from five win over match day

[slaman29]

Girona are having a lot of fun as I can see on social media. We visit them today and they are all sold out on tickets from long time ago but the club did a contest of Golden Tickets hidden around the city and some videos are pretty cool.

Anyway, it's the only important game for me today, because I have one last freebet multi that hit everything else except Barca. I said I wouldn't do this again but my last 4 big tickets are all similar. One last leg didn't hit and it wasn't even La Liga!!

[buwaytress]

Nice one Slam. HT still scoreless but don't think there is any need to worry.

The way my team's playing, I honestly don't mind seeing these top 2 giants clash. They've become more attractive again, in part because of Real magic, in part because Barca's stopped looking like shit.

One club at a time for me is all I can manage. I suppose I have some leanings towards the underdogs in La Liga and Serie A, but that is generally reliant on their performance (it's never Real, Barca or Atletico which is great so I can enjoy/hate as a neutral).

Auxerre was sad, I didn't feel much for Cagliari, Everton, well, I can never take seriously. This season I followed Freiburg for a bit (and one of my fav players Doan helps me). Hang in there, man.

Elche its going straight forward to the LaLiga2 its incredible how they are going deeper and deeper.

Only 6 points in 19 games what a disaster, and when i see them playing they dont play that bad, they are similar to another teams in the relegation zone, but seems like luck its not in his side.

[slaman29]

Ya thanks! So I finally made some profit from Barca, I shared earlier it Sportsbet ANN thread, and it does look nice to see the cushion growing. This was an important game because we actually didn't have our normal fire up front but so good to see our forwards got to rest a game and cleared their suspensions. But Dembele injury we all hope has no longterm impact.

Then they should be fine because luck runs only last a number of games. It's when you play badly that you should be worried about. Elche, the conquerors of big teams, can't get points on lower teams, seems like how things go!!

[buwaytress]

^ Ya saw that, well done, at least someone is not miserable today.

Funny enough, I saw that I actually had Sevilla in one of my tickets, so that passed happily as the first leg. Honestly can't remember ever doing that, it's been ages since I counted them to serve me up anything, so it's a weird accident I'm pleased for.

Meanwhile, Valencia did as expected, and Atletico slim win, business as usual in La Liga

If i understand you correctly, i think the same way its gonna happen, its gonna arrive the matches without pressure to play from Elche and then the wins.

Oh no, i read again and understand , well when i say its not playing bad but also they are not playing good. And in case you play good and always lose, its worst than ever because you dont know what to fix and start thinking about luck and curse.

Real didn't managed to beat Real Sociedad and score against them. Watched only last 10 minutes and it seemed that Sociedad only tried to keep score 0:0. Even on attack, they didn't tried to make somethingg dangerous, just kept ball for longer to waste some time. Already +5 in Barcelona.
Must mention that unbeleavable Inaki Williams 251 consecutive La Liga games run ended today, as he missed game with Celta because of injury. He haven't missed any games since 2016! This guy isn't getting enough credit.

Good point about them, Elche had so many close games when they lost 0:1 or 1:2. But already after half of season they have no chances to stay in La Liga. Now Sevilla after 2 wins in a row finally left bottom, but  now there is just 5 points between 11-19th places.

[slaman29]

Sevilla were never going to stay in bottom for too long, it would have been the collapse of the decade, especially with such an immense keeper at the back who also had a good WC.

Not that we will start betting on them again lol.

Real Madrid, may they continue to slump like this for a bit more at least until we have a very healthy 15 point cushion!!

I might be the only Barcelona fan that doesn't want Real Madrid to do our dirty job for us, I know we all probably want the league so bad and however the hell it happens doesn't seem to matter, but I believe it is going to be pretty way much earned if Barcelona should go all the way to win the league by winning against Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, so I'd rather see the league still pretty much opened until then and that will surely keep the team on their toes, we've scored the 2nd most league goals this season, just a goal shy from the most and we've conceded just 6 goals too, that's less than half of what any other team has managed so far. So, I'd rather we just keep up with our end of the task than hope Real Madrid does it for us.
