After a fierce competition between Fulham and Brentford, Fulham finally managed to get 3 points in the final minutes to lock in a 2-goal victory.
Initially, Fulham was 1 goal behind Brentford, but it turned out that Fulham was able to take advantage of the final minutes when Brentford players began to lose focus.
Did anyone bet and watch the match?

It was indeed a fierce battle between Fulham and Brentford. I initially thought Brentford would win, but Fulham staged an impressive comeback, equalizing in the 90th minute and then scoring the winner in the 97th minute of extra time. In my view, Brentford lost focus towards the end of the game. Even though my prediction was correct as I backed both teams to score, I still felt that Brentford should have managed the game better to avoid conceding two late goals.

We can call Liverpool the best performing team in the Premier League so far and we can also call them the best performing team in the Champions League. Ever since Liverpool appointed a new manager, their team performance has improved greatly. The one who was in charge of Liverpool before came to the end of his career did not do well in the last few seasons for Liverpool due to which he resigned himself from the responsibility of Liverpool and Liverpool appointed another manager to their club. Although this manager was criticized at first, later this manager is proving that he is not a failure at all and the team under him can become the champion of the tournament one day.

Do you mean to say Jorgen Klopp didn't do great as a coach in all the time he managed Liverpool? Klopp is known as the only Liverpool manager to have won 6 trophies with Liverpool including champions league, uefa super cup and even the premier league. His achievements with Liverpool is what the present manager Slot is really not going to attain anytime soon. So it baffles me to read that you saying Klopp never did well with Liverpool. Is laughable.

Liverpool have a great chance to win the EPL and UCL titles this season if they can maintain their consistency and performance until the end of the season, the ability possessed by liverpool at this time of course cannot be separated from the tactics, strategies and slot ability to manage the team well, Slot has brought many significant changes in the tactics and mentality of the team and it can be seen from their consistent and dominant performance in both competitions, But I think the achievements from slot this season should not make us compare him with Klopp, let alone consider slot better than Klopp in his first season, I think Klopp has left a squad that is qualified, strong, compact and has high fighting power so that slot has no difficulty building liverpool in his first season on coaching, if we compare the two coaches, of course slot is nothing compared to Klopp who has returned the glory of Liverpool after 30 years of slump.

But I see Amorim as more flexible in making game tactics than Ten Hag. He plays football with defensive and counter-attack tactics but he can also apply aggressive game if the opponent is a weaker team. I think Nistelrooy will be able to adapt and work with Amorim. Honestly I think it is easier for Nistelrooy to work with Amorim than Ten Hag. Sporting's victory over City has given great hype for Amorim. It was a great farewell because it gave victory to Sporting. And this is also a great gift for United because Amorim came to United after beating their rivals, Manchester City  .

I'm going to be coming from the angle of gambling. This is exactly why you can't really say you have a strategy for gambling or you are sure you are going to win because last-minute games like this happen a lot in football. You won't see it coming, you might think the team is an underdog, and just last minute they score either a draw or they score to win. But it was a really interesting game and I always enjoy last-minute games.

Also, it's good to be hopeful, anything can change last minute, though you are not sure, but you will be hopeful. I'm usually skeptic to cashout, but when I think about the fact that I will lose entire money if I don't cash out when I saw a reasonable amount of profit, I just end up doing a cash out. But last-minute games are crazy and interesting at the same time.

If everything continues this way till the end of the season, it's possible that Liverpool will win EPL, but I am not sure of UCL, because there are many strong clubs in UCL that Slot might find difficult to win. Club like Barcelona will be a problem for Liverpool to defeat, because they have an outstanding performance this season with their new coach Flick.

Arne Slot has demonstrated his qualities as a good coach in bringing the team to a stable for with high level of consistency, and it is high time Liverpool win a trophy with such wonderful performance.

What I think Liverpool should do this season as per their good form this season is just to decide on facing one major trophy and chanel energy there mote as a target to secure for this season rather than wanting to chase both the UCL and EPL trophy as they might end at not getting any going in that way.  They can win the UCL if that what they chose to chase mostly as the only big team that's also in better form in this season's competition is Barcelona, other teams like Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Manchester city including Milan ain't that really a threat looking at how their performance has been poor since the resumption of the season. Frankly speaking, it's gonna be painful if they should end this season without any one of these trophies because there's no better timing than now, and to do that Liverpool would need to maintain their winning streaks.

Matchweek 11 has some interesting matches that we shouldn't miss, such as the match between Chelsea vs Arsenal. I think among the others, this match is the one that looks so interesting to many people because both teams seem to have equal strength with each other and it seems quite difficult to determine who is the favorite in this match. Their odds are currently:
Chelsea @2.75
Arsenal @2.55
Draw @3.50
But I decided to bet BTTS with odds @1.58 and also added 2 other important matches to get a greater of profit.

Today's match is Brentford vs. Bournemouth. I am curious if Bournemouth will continue to maintain its positive trend. Because they was managed to overcome big clubs, Arsenal, Aston Villa, and most recently defeated Manchester City on Vitality Stadium. I admit, Bournemouth has a high fighting spirit when meet a big team, they seem to be facing a big challenge when face clubs above their ability. I don't know how they overcome clubs with the same strength as them. On other side, Brentford have the ability win the match when face clubs like Bournemouth on their home either. This will be an interesting match because the chances of winning between them are almost equal.

[Pokapoka124]

Great performance by Liverpool tonight. They destroyed Leverkusen 4-0 at Anfield.
We can't say the same about Man City, who, surprisingly, got a pretty bad beating from Sporting and returned home with a 4-1 loss

Liverpool gave a fine show against Leverkusen last night in the champions league. Slot would appreciate Jorgen Klopp for leaving him with a standard and decent team with which he just came in and continued building on that form  now Liverpool stands in number one position on the EPL table ahead of Manchester City and Arsenal. While in the champions league they have been getting great results both home and away games.

For Manchester City, they are going through a challenging period both in the EPL and in the champions league, the absence of KDB and Rodri has really had a negative effect on their performance and they have fallen below expectation which to me the victory sporting had against them in the UCL was expected if we're to go by the loses they got in the EPL in their last two games.

We can call Liverpool the best performing team in the Premier League so far and we can also call them the best performing team in the Champions League. Ever since Liverpool appointed a new manager, their team performance has improved greatly. The one who was in charge of Liverpool before came to the end of his career did not do well in the last few seasons for Liverpool due to which he resigned himself from the responsibility of Liverpool and Liverpool appointed another manager to their club. Although this manager was criticized at first, later this manager is proving that he is not a failure at all and the team under him can become the champion of the tournament one day. However, apart from Manchester City not being in a good position in the Premier League, they are also in a somewhat weak position in the Champions League.

Even though Liverpool has a great chance to win both the EPL and UCL this season, I’m not convinced they can make it happen. I don’t think Liverpool has what it takes to make it through the season without dropping form. Arne Slot has proven himself to be a very efficient manager and a worthy replacement for Klopp but I wouldn’t compare him to Klopp. Unlike Klopp who had to build the team from scratch, Arne Slot was handed a top quality squad who are not new to success so it is easier for Arne Slot to build on the strengths of the team and continue from where Klopp left off.

Did anyone bet and watch the match?

I personally didn't watch the match and preferred to watch the highlights after the match has over, although it was the only Premier League match played yesterday, but the mid-table team factor that played made me prefer to sleep because the match was played too late at night in my country, but seeing Fulham's two winning goals that were obtained towards the end of the match, of course it shows their mental toughness and ability to come from behind is great, the comeback to victory after a quick defeat to Brentford in that game makes me think if fulham has improved quite a lot, the arrival of players like Smith Rowe, Sender Berge and Reiss Nelson has improved their performance this season, so I think if Fulham can maintain their performance and consistency like this of course not impossible if they can compete to end the season in the European zone later.

Fulham football team won the match by 2-1 ratio and that team played well in this match . H. Wilson did 2 goals in this match and he was the player who changed the side of match because before his goals match was towards the side of Brentford football team because they had done one goal in this match.  Janelt was the player who did first goal of this match and  did goal at 24 minutes of the match and after that time passed and no one became successful to do goal in this match and after all H. Wilson did come back in this match and he became match winner of this match and did 2 crucial goals in this match.

Just like you said, if everything continues like this till the end of the season, which is highly unlikely. Teams will always brings strategies to tackle each other, so I don't believe Liverpool will end up winning the premier league, if you can remember very well last season, a time came like this too where Liverpool where toping the league table for a reasonable period of time, we even hoped they will end up winning it, but at last, they ended up dropping points till Manchester city and Arsenal later came ahead of them. Yes they've changed the coach, but have they changed the players.  

As for the champions league,  it's an entirely a different ballgame, because it can be unpredictable sometimes, Liverpool can actually pull a stunt regardless of who they will be more meeting.

You have a good choice in these 3 matches.
But related to the Chelsea vs Arsenal match I actually have the confidence that Chelsea can have a greater chance of winning because currently Chelsea looks more stable and competing at home giving greater confidence to Chelsea players.

It is possible for Bournemouth to maintain their positive trend. At least to get a draw can be obtained by them based on what they have done until the 10th match.
The head to head of both is not convincing to say that Bournemouth can get a win.
In this match, Brentford does not want to lose any more points after in round 10 they failed to get points because in the extra minutes the opposing team made a comeback.

Yep, Liverpool is a team that strong in the beginning and middle season, but they're become poor in the late season. It's different to Manchester City which always consistent, I still think Manchester City has better chance to become a champion in this season.

Pep still have a lot time to figure out his team, they won't continue their lose streak.

What is clear is that both teams are doing well, and in my view, both teams have good chances of winning the game. So, I would say it's possible for Bournemouth to win this game as well as Brentford. Comparing the performances of these teams, they seem to be at a similar level. However, if I were to bet on this game, I would bet on Bournemouth to win or draw.Their performance in their last two Premier League games was impressive, and that gives me confidence to bet on them to win or draw. If Bournemouth can beat Arsenal and Manchester City, I have a bit more confidence in them to win or draw this game than Brentford, despite it being Brentford's home game. This match will be a very tough and interesting one, but let's see what happens at the end.

Yes, Bournemouth has been quite good with their performances ,Though have lost 3 of its games so with four draws and is about time that we will begin to witnessing the true form of this teams going forward.
The very game of which I'm paying very close attention about what would be the outcome today and if they'll be able to maintain their form is the Liverpool vs Aston Villa game, Aston Villa has also been quite impressive with their performances, they've only lost two of its games.

So far the match has been very impressive and both teams have exchanged goals in pursuit of victory, both teams have shown a very high fighting spirit with the ability to score goals quite effectively, Brentford have taken advantage of playing at home well at this time, while Bournemouth has shown that they can compete with strong teams and when their beat manchester city and arsenal and hold a draw with aston villa has shown their ability to overcome pressure in every match,
Currently the score is 3-2 in favour of Brentford, but before the final whistle is blown by the referee of course I think the result of this match can still change, because Bournemouth have the ability to equalise or even turn things around towards the end of the match later, especially if they can take advantage of opportunities better.

What a quite tense match. Even though they both were only fighting for 10th place but they really showed how fun football can be, and 5 goals in this match really make for an interesting spectacle. I thought Brentford played better in the second half, and their build up has improved, therefore they can get more chances than their opponents. Even though they were trailing 1-2 but they were able to turn things around quickly and they only needed 10 minutes to make the score 3-2 for their victory.

It's also noticeable if Brentford's defensive line is also getting even more solid. They struggled at the start of the season with several losses. Now, they are making a comeback as we enter mid-season. I expect them to play even better since their lines are getting even more balanced.

I'm very happy to see Brentford don't give up easily after they took the lead in the first half. They were stuggled to score. But, they were turn things around in the second half and showed more consistency. I see a lot of positives from them in this games.

Hats off for Collins, he's balling.

We can call Liverpool the best performing team in the Premier League so far and we can also call them the best performing team in the Champions League. Ever since Liverpool appointed a new manager, their team performance has improved greatly. The one who was in charge of Liverpool before came to the end of his career did not do well in the last few seasons for Liverpool due to which he resigned himself from the responsibility of Liverpool and Liverpool appointed another manager to their club. Although this manager was criticized at first, later this manager is proving that he is not a failure at all and the team under him can become the champion of the tournament one day. However, apart from Manchester City not being in a good position in the Premier League, they are also in a somewhat weak position in the Champions League.

You cannot entirely assess a coach only by his current performance, if you do then you might be shooting yourself on the foot because there are several criterias that should be considered before you can rate a coach, hence it would be very wrong for anybody to have made such a derogatory statement about Jurgen Klopp who transformed Liverpool into modern elite club during his era at Liverpool. It is quite commendable what the new coach is doing at Liverpool but nobody would ever remember all of these if he doesn't win trophies like Jürgen klopp did at Liverpool, perhaps it is better to wait and see what the new manager would achieve in terms of laurels before comparing him to his predecessor.
