^^
I also advise this bet on Sassuolo they are a strong team and many have underestimated them from the beginning of the season.
Have them as my favorite team of the league on the superbru site and almost always put them on my betslip when they play.
Hope you get that win on the big parlay and on this hedge bet as they have juicy odds for both.
May the green machine make you rich.

New free bet challenge is up, go make your predictions.

This is first time this season I could not find a single derby over the weekend so we have a couple of lower profile but still hopefully interesting games. Not gonna tell you what they are, go check it out yourself

Betis-Bilbao may not be the most exciting games for a lot of people so in this spirit I will mark this one for a draw in the pool, but it should be a tight 2-1 win for either side.

Thanks as always for your dedication Trofo

Italy and Spain games for me have so many clear favorites but we were let down often in Serie A while La Liga mainly kept to the picks. If it swings this weekend, I deserve it lol

Great start from Atletico, but for some reason their players have been absolutely reckless. Carrasco getting a shit yellow for cursing at the ref, and then Reinildo went for a full-blooded 2-foot challenge... at the halfway line. Should have been sent off actually, but VAR weirdly downgraded ref's decision. Really lucky, they're actually doing ok, don't know why the nonsensical fouls. I know that's their style but even Simeone's yelling at his players to calm down haha.

My prediction already out of contention for exact at HT.

yeah, the players looked too nervous (Reinildo should've been sent off tbh), but then again, when you have FC Barcelona and Real betis breathing down your neck in the league table, it's easy to lose your composure when things don't go your away in a game against a team (Cadiz) that's fighting in the relegation zone yet it's putting up a tremendous fight

anyway, i just noticed the bookies have Getafe as main fav against Valencia 🤔 the former are winless in the last four games, Valencia is on a winning streak, not sure why Valencia are the underdog here... they would've given my weekend parlays a nice boost in odds but i saw it too late

[slaman29]

I did notice Getafe at 2x and a bit over but I still left them out of my multibets, not that it makes a difference since I lost them all in past 2 days. I didn't do anything much at all, still waiting for one multibet to end with Serie A.

Levante is the match I can watch today and it's still scoreless why don't they play Barca games early hehe

Probably injuries and suspensions, Valencia does love getting themselves into the books: 6 red cards and numerous yellows, they top the La Liga table in disciplinary action (top means they're very naughty haha). Getafe's actually coming in hot at second place HAHA. Spain is awash with reds though, and Real, since losing Ramos, actually haven't even got their first sending off yet this season!

Didn't matter, I was picking on form and Valencia's also a no-go for my tickets these days. Weird it's nil-nil at HT and no sending offs given they're both living on the edge. Maybe just full of fresh players.

it is still ten rounds to go, but I think that for Valencia league season is over, there is only one match that count, and that is CDR final in a month or so
as a fan, I am never betting on Valencia, but with this in mind, I would even consider to bet on them, can't go up, can't go down, it is just playing for fun IMO

it is still goalless in Getafe, there was a goal disallowed for home team, and yeah, they are wanting the win more
but, it would be great to finish 0:0, to have a binary round today, 1:1, 0:1, 1:0 and 0:0

Yeah, another season down the drain. I love a great physical style as much as any, but "hats off" to Valencia and Getafe and others who've proven that Simeone isn't the only one who wants to turn the La Liga into a battlefield of fouls. Had no idea you were a fan but it must really hurt to see your team fall far below its potential. Battling teams and fighting games are only worth it if you get wins but last night was an example of a terrible way to lose spirit, players, get suspensions, and end up with a shit point.

[slaman29]

Man, Sevilla. I don't know why I was so confident in picking them. The odds given by bookies should have given me a clue about how they would perform. 3 subs made at 55th minute was a gamble as it brought the first shot from a great cross, in the entire game, to equalize. Only chance after that was penalty that VAR removed. Rayo I guess deserved to win if you look at the chances created and blocks, so if Sevilla want this title they better find a way to play more creatively and get the best out of Ocampos.

Off to bed, Barca too late for me

[casperBGD]

Sociedad just scored, and they will probably win home match, as expected
all matches, except for Atletico on Friday, are under2.5, is this a moment to chase goals on Barca or what?

against Osasuna, there could be over3.5 or even over4.5, odds are not great, but I like to bet over statistics, and there is only one 3 goal match in this round so far

Could be a nice bet, I like to finish the Sunday with casual multi where I add few over or both to score games. Especially if I have some extra cash in the betting bank.

Barca did not score against Galatasaray during the week, and this round has been low in goals so I guess we could see return to the mean. Did not watch a single game in La Liga yet this week so I am getting ready for Barca. From what you guys are writing, does not seem like I missed much.

Now I can't find stats, but I think average number of goals in La Liga is lowest from all top 5 leagues, it's below than 2,5 goals. So, probably it's nothing surprising that we have another low scoring round.
But for Barca game, I made over 2,5 goals bet without thinking much. Odds for over 3,5 goals wasn't bad, but this time I decided better safe than sorry. I haven't saw such one-sided game for a while. It was good warm-up before decisive game with Galatasaray and El Clasico next week. I think our main players didn't got tired much today.

Sorry for being late but, i thing the main problem here can be the Rayo pitch, you maybe say, why?.
The pitch of the Rayo its extremely short, and for a few teams this its very complicated, you have less spaces and you have to adapt good for the foward kicks.

I know this because here in Argentina in the First Division we have one pitch like that the pitch of Argentinos Juniors, and a lot of team suffer for this condition.
Its only a few meters but its a lot of difference.

Anyways if Sevilla wants to fight the title you need to win.

[tomahawk9]

Barca did not score against Galatasaray during the week [...]

awful showing last thursday and bad sensations all around, so they had to took it out on someone and Osasuna paid the price.
Goal fest, clean sheet and 3rd place in the league table. All of those things seemed absurd a few months ago, now look at 'em. El Clasico is gonna be🔥🔥

[casperBGD]

El Clasico is gonna be🔥🔥

yeah, it will not decide anything, but it will be a great match, we can see that
could end up as great season for Real, but good one for Barca too, if they win Europa league, it is a rare opportunity when both can win some European titles (not competing in the same, as every other season)

Real tonight, should be an easy win, or they are still celebrating win over PSG?

You never know what can happen. Real is playing in CL which is tougher competition and they are rotating very little. I am expecting them to have a bad spell towards the end of the season. It would be something if Barca gets back to the title challenge. Win in Classico and real dropping points tonight it will look much closer.

I am always suspicions of good odds on favorites during week when there is very little markets to play. Vast majority of players have their money on Real today and that is enough for me to skip it. Not brave enough to bet against them though.

One of Lazio, City and Real must loose points today

fun fact:  Real madrid are unbeaten during monday fixtures since 2010. Last time they lost a game on a monday was the day they got obliterated 5-0 at the Camp Nou   Nightmares

"easy", well, we did beat Mallorca 6-1 in our last meeting so I can see where you're coming from, but i don't think tonight is gonna be a walk in the park, though it is certainly i winnable game. I think i predicted a 2-0 in the pool, c'mon need me a correct score to fight for that 4th place in the leaderboard

It would be interesting to know how many times in these 12 years Real played on Monday lol. I guess not that many.
And thanks for bringing good old memories from that unforgetable El Clasico .

And who would have thought that it will be City .

yeah, City was lowest odd, if I am not wrong, so probably more money on them, than on Real? not sure

I do not think that Barca has any chances to even fight for title this season, they are in good form, but difference is too big
but Barca will easily end-up as second, since Sevilla would not keep up obviously
