Spanish league proving to be a stubborn league to predict...but from my observation 2-0, 1-1, 1-0 seem to be the most common scoreline around here, and with this insight I will be calibrating  my correct score predictions to the said numbers.

Btw, noticed that if you can get 3 correct scores and some result points you are guaranteed of a yellowcap...but unfortunately not as easy as it sounds

Aren't those scores the most common final scores for any football game? There are always big wins and games with much more goals but overall I think that those scores are the most common. Btw, yellow cap is for the best player in the last round, not for the one that gets 3 correct scores. There is also a wooden spoon that's reserved for the player with the worst performance in the last round.

I can't believe how many of us got the exact score in Barcelona - Cadiz game. Especially after the draw that Barcelona had in their first game.

Btw, does anyone know why Superbru app often says "Sorry, the game engine is busy..." when I'm trying to see the leaderboard? Sometimes it works but often it just gives that error.

Just do it outside of critical hours. It is absolutely the worst when PL games finish and everyone wants to check it.

They have slow servers, i just got used to it and I do my superbru stuff in the mornings. Did not see that problem for years.

I will have to stop being pool captain, my results are suffering something awful. I am firmly at the bottom of bot my pools while I am doing OKish in Bundesliga and keeping very good 4th position in Premier League. Hell I am even doing better in F1 pool and I have never in my life watched a race. No other explanation than failure to perform in my own pools

At least I got Barca correct score right so maybe there are bettre days to come in the future.

Barca correct is the minimum most of us can hope for, along with Real Madrid lol

Looks like I jinxed Atletico also with the horrible prediction, I even actually thought there would be many goals.

I can't believe you are at bottom but you have to see in all the pools, the yellow caps are doing weird results, Premier League only is showing to me "correct" tables, so you should be happy there.

F1 is same story for both of us it seems. If only we can extract a lesson from this!!

Well after a "good" start, a very bad second round for me in this pool.

Atletico yesterday with the tie agains Betis was not expected for me, i think this Atletico its gonna be a real contender (still is), but i really see they winning against Betis. But the reality seems not today.

Getafe losing 3-0 against Girona another unexpected result. Bordalas teams are very defensive, and they come from a 0-0 against Barcelona, no sense.

[buwaytress]

Great, great start to your first acca, Bitcoin-Girl! To think of all the freebets I already wasted heh heh and the latest batch all headed for Liverpool's way.

I was absolutely tempted to hit Sevilla last night... Alaves blew them and me away (memories of the exact scoreline but in reverse from 2001 Europa vs Liverpool).

They're losing their next one, too, aren't they?

[darxiaomi]

Sevilla allways make something to surprises us, its incredible i dont know what to think. How you can make a good defensive play against the best team in the world at mid week and allow only one goal, and after that you play against one of the most weak teams in the league and allow 4 goals....

[casperBGD]

yeah, they are pretty unbelievable, but that is what it is
winning Europa league even when they can't win single match in La Liga, then play head-to-head against City, and they allow 4 goals against Alaves

but what is looking good so far is Valencia at position 3, Osasuna at home is next, it is an opportunity to continue winning strike, and maybe if Rayo and Real don't win 3rd match, be alone on top

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

They're losing their next one, too, aren't they?

I don't know but may be in the next one I am not going to pick them anymore LOL. At least I thought they will win their last match after failing in the first match. But 4 - 3! It was beyond what I thought about Sevilla.

Well after a "good" start, a very bad second round for me in this pool.

I think I am positing 18th place. But it's too early to figure out anything. If you are able to be consistent and at least score decent round by round then you will see yourself in a good position at the end of the season.

[slaman29]

Guys please remember, Sevilla are trap. I pick them but just don't put money on them. Then when they disappoint you, you don't get hurt

Be careful of the other trap team Valencia. They will even be top of the table but they will break your heart and smash it in front of you a million pieces.

Barca back to yellow/red card power. I feel this season is time to bet overs on cards.

It reminds me Utd and Chelsea last season LOL
Both of these teams costed me a lot both in the pool and in gambling. I think I have Sevilla to lose not sure what I picked for Valencia match.



My 7 fold for this week and I am looking forward to see Real Madrid and Chelsea are winning this evening.

[casperBGD]

new round started, and Sociedad missed another chance for a first win
was thinking to put a draw, but eventually decided to go with Sociedad win, and it ended-up being one-sided match with Las Palmas doing all the work, but missed on final touch and scoring

Celta vs Real will be also interesting, most going with Real, but Celta is always tough to play in Vigo, and started really bad
edit: Celta just scored 1:0, 3rd minute (no, it is not a goal, VAR to the rescue)

[Woodie]

How do you like me now lol some rubber duck as a trophy as we open the gameweek,  I will take  

On a serious note, what's with the 0-0 and 1-1 scoreline, thought 2-1 was the most popular scoreline in the world of football... Anyway  still trying to calibrated my game for LA liga

Meanwhile in Estadio de Balaídos , REAL MADRID game still goalless at the half..

[Ulven]

Real Madrid managed to secure a victory tonight against the home team, thanks to a goal by Bellingham. I believe Vinicius's absence from playing for a long period will put Madrid in a difficult situation, and I'm not sure if his injury is serious or not. Real Sociedad's goalless draw against Las Palmas today was a miracle for me because I had predicted a 1-1 score. However, just ten minutes before the match started, I changed the result in favor of Real Sociedad. Despite that, I'm happy with the 1.5 points I gained thanks to Madrid.

[slaman29]

Real Madrid what can I say? They should be losing at least once but bought the most important player for their season and future 10 seasons. I hate them but like Bellingham. He is more mvp than Benzema it seems.

It reminds me Utd and Chelsea last season LOL
Both of these teams costed me a lot both in the pool and in gambling. I think I have Sevilla to lose not sure what I picked for Valencia match.

Chelsea cost me a lot but honestly so did Barca at times when I went for handicaps they kept going 1-0 at some point lol

Sevilla once more the favorite but I have them in BSFL as not to win, so that is me making sure I don't fall for their trap again!

I don't trust Sevilla ever, they always find a way to screw you in the end.

In other news this is what I believe first time in any pool ever that I am last on table. I knew I was doing badly I had no idea I am this bad   And my colleague cryptofrka is just next to me with buwaytress only one spot removed. This deserves a screenshot Sorry mitchr for dragging you into this.

slackovic is now here to steal all the luck in this pool
late goal by Almeria was really a down term, had Cadiz 1:0 win and Almeria hadn't any shot on target in 90 minutes, but that one was enough to get point and send my exact score down the drain

same shit on Wolves, first shot on target in '87 minute, and a winner
it is not my weekend, probably not my week considering ECL scores

What do you mean? I had Cadiz winning 1-0 and that goal ruined my chances to get the correct score. It looks like my luck is running out. It was good in the first season if the BSFL, but this season I'm not that good in BSFL or here. But hey, at least it's more fun to track the scores

Lol you three are probably the most consistent experts in gambling I would say but you guys prove no one is forever good at everything!! And why I never pay for tips sorry guys I have to laugh but don't worry my turn came in BSFL, relegated

Sevilla is the only thing we can all agree on, and Girona made a big profit on their inability to score. Many chances from few attempts but defence terrible. Same start as last season it seems.

I meant generally, it is not that you can rename to "sreckovic", without any doubt, and in a good sense of course
but as you said it seems that luck is fleeing from you too

[Trofo]

But here is the big difference, this pool has absolutely no similarities with gambling. I often do really well at gambling and terrible in prediction pools. For instance one of my favorite plays is both to score and I had it yesterday on Brighton - West Ham, that tip passed without problems and was paying a lot more than Brighton win. In PL pool I had 3:2 for Brighton or something like that.

Will probably take BTS on Barca today, so you know what to avoid.
