Sporting 3-0 Moreirense
Vizela 1-2 Benfica
Estrela Amadora 0-1 Porto

I didn't bet on this round (I didn't make it in time) and unfortunately I missed out on a good bet, as I would have followed my strategy of betting on Benfica, Porto and Sporting victories  
But for the next round I'll place the bet above and I think I've got a good chance, it'll be 1.92 odds

There's a great game to bet on, Braga x Boavista, with odds of 5.80 for Boavista to win  
Considering that the team seems to be better than Braga at the moment, it seems like a good risk x reward

[joker_josue]

After the victory of Porto and Sporting, and the defeats of Benfica and Braga, in European competitions, we will have another round of matches.

...

What are your guesses?

My bet is on Porto, Sporting and Benfica winning

And this match is catching my attention:


According to the odds, Braga are the favorite (especially playing at home), but Boavista are in 1st place and are playing very well, so the odds are excellent for a possible Boavista victory.
What do you think? Are Braga that much of a favorite or could Boavista be a good bet at the moment?

As I already mentioned, at the beginning of the championship there are always these suppressions.

Braga has improved its performance, although the results have not yet appeared. But, this can happen at any time.
Honestly, at this moment I would say that Boavista wins. But I'm more inclined towards a draw.

Portuguese league underrated and is also a competitive league, teams tends to be in good form inother to achieve significant titles. There's just few teams that are favorites to win the league title. This is football, does the reason of a club been home team have advantage? Basically not because the visitors can still pull up an incredible performance which will outperform the home side, counting for a loss shouldn't really matter. Boavista is an outstanding side and recording good performance in league games, they're favorite because they do provide the necessary winning qualities with superb players in the club also.

MATCH DAY  6:
^{23.09. 20:30} Porto vs Gil Vicente

^{24.09. 20:30} Braga vs Boavista
^{25.09. 20:15} Sporting vs Rio Ave
_{Info: day.month. time (Lisbon time)}


What are your guesses?

Porto should be a straight forward win with over 1.5 goals as Porto look to build on their start to the season. I expect Benfica to bounce back from their first loss of the season to win away at Portimonense. Boavista should get a draw against Braga and Sporting Lisbon will also win with more than 2 goals.

Yes, I remember you commenting on the start of the championship
Last season I started watching more and betting with the championship already started, I don't remember exactly, but with more than 10 rounds played

I'm feeling lucky today, I'm going to place a small bet on Boavista winning, maybe I can make a good profit to help my bankroll for the championship hehehe
But unfortunately I won't be able to watch the game, here on Star+ they will broadcast Porto vs Gil Vicente only

[execijutiere]

Moreirense defeated Farense 1-0 at home to increase their points to 7.Moreirense had more chances against their opponent and deserved to win the match.I think it is normal that there are not many goals in this kind of matches.
The Estoril-Vizela match ended in a 2-2 draw.We can say that both teams made an effort to win the match.We saw a scoreless draw in the first half and 4 goals in the second half.In the ongoing Casa Pia - Vitoria Guimaraes match, I think the away team will score goals.Although the first half ended without a goal, we may see 2 goals in the second half.

Very good weekend i would say, Porto got a win at home scoring 2 goals, Benfica won away at Portimonense with 3 goals to 1, recovering from their defeat last weekend; while Braga thrashed Boavista with good 4 goals to 1 (i missed this entirely hahahah).

Tomorrow SPorting Lisbon hosts Rio Ave; what are your predictions ?

You can laugh at me, but I believed in Boavista's victory hehehe  , I even bet 5 dollars, but I got it wrong
At least my bet on Porto and Benfica worked out, all that's left is for Sporting to win tomorrow to close out my multiple with a victory, and I'll be able to get back what I lost, at least

With that, Porto are back in the lead, and tomorrow if Sporting win, they'll take Porto's place as they'll have a better goal difference

[joker_josue]

Tomorrow SPorting Lisbon hosts Rio Ave; what are your predictions ?

I believe Sporting will win the game. Despite the fact that Rio Ave is a difficult team, it tends to make games difficult for the big players. Sporting itself has a history of losing points to Rio Ave. But, they will play at home and will have the support of their fans, I believe they will win.

You are correct, Sporting Lisbon won the game at home, with 2 goals and a cleansheet. The goals were scored by Paulinho and Edwards and the win takes Sporting Lisbon to the top of the Portuguese League with 16 points.

[Slow death]

Porto won in their game against Gil Vicente, it was a game in which once again I didn't see Porto scoring many goals and winning the game easily, it seems to me that Porto have not been able to have a very strong squad since last season. strong team capable of going far in the European champions' league, in fact it seems to me that all the teams in the Portuguese league, I'm talking about Porto, Benfica, Sporting have not prepared themselves so that they have the squad to win the European champions' league, I don't know why the teams The biggest players in the Portuguese league do not have this objective. But leaving that aside and looking at the league, I see Porto as weak, but they still have the potential to be champions, and since they are at the top they will probably reduce the schemes they have used to win.

but they win games with difficulty, this means that when they feel like they can lose then they will use their schemes to win the game, this is a strategy (cheating) that guarantees Porto the title this season, but strange that in the league of European champions they played well and without cheating, I don't understand why in the Portuguese league they are struggling to win games, their problem seems to me to be in the attack, which cannot take advantage of any opportunity to score a goal. Benfica won in their game against Portimonense, as expected from Benfica, they manage to win and score a lot of goals and it was a clean victory without cheating

Benfica are doing well in the Portuguese league, but they are doing poorly in the European Champions League, although I believe it was the red card that hurt them in the European Champions League game. Sporting won the game against Rio Ave, and if Porto has some defeats (something very difficult to happen as long as they have their cheating schemes) and Benfica also has bad results then Sporting would have any chance of becoming champions, no It is impossible for that to happen, but it will be very difficult for it to happen. I lost my multibet bet because of napoli or mine because I bet on napoli, I wanted to have placed a draw or napoli.

Here is the round 6 summary:

MATCH DAY  6 - RESULTS:
Sporting 2-0 Rio Ave

At least my bet on the 3 wins worked out and I managed to recover what I lost betting on Boavista
Thanks Sporting hehehe

I lost my multibet bet because of napoli or mine because I bet on napoli, I wanted to have placed a draw or napoli.

Wow, multiple of 7 
I make mine with 3 bets and I think it's already a lot
The Portuguese league is very good for these multiples, but I don't have the courage to include the other leagues in my bets just yet

How much were the odds on that bet you made? By the way, sorry for your loss

Benfica are doing well in the Portuguese league, but they are doing poorly in the European Champions League, although I believe it was the red card that hurt them in the European Champions League game.

I think next Friday's game will be the litmus test for Porto and Benfica. Whoever wins this game will be the one who marks the position of possible winner of the championship. In recent years, Porto has had an advantage over Benfica in direct confrontations. So, let's expect a very exciting game.

Regarding Sporting, I think they haven't faced a really difficult opponent yet. Let's see how things go.

Regarding Sporting, I think they haven't faced a really difficult opponent yet. Let's see how things go.

Talking about this game, here in my country we call it a 6-point game, because as well as being worth 3 points for the team, the direct opponent for the title fails to win those 3 points, so it's an extremely important and valuable game for any team.
A draw is a satisfactory result for both teams.

The odds for this match are very favorable for Benfica, but I think that's just because they're playing at home


Any concrete predictions for this game?

I'll tell you in advance that I'm not going to bet a multi on this game because it's unpredictable

[joker_josue]

Any concrete predictions for this game?

I think it's very difficult to predict, because both teams have been playing at more or less the same level.
Statistically, Porto has won more times than Benfica, even at home. In turn, Benfica has already beaten Porto this season.
Porto had a good performance in the Champions League, but has had difficulty winning national championship games, achieving victories in extra time.
In the case of Benfica, they lost in the Champions League, and have also lost a game in the national championship, and despite having won games, their performances have not been surprising.
Both clubs will have an important clash next week in the Champions League. Porto plays Barcelona, and Benfica plays Inter. Despite this, normally the most important thing for these clubs is the national championship.
In terms of players, I think that the best players currently are available to go to the game.
