I do not like the game that much. If I had to bet it I would take the over simply based on West Ham's improved performance. Traditionally B&H have been good at home, but not so much this year. West Ham can be unpredictable, but they look like they may be on track, so just do not see a good angle for this one.

Barcelona -150

Not a play I would usually make as they have not been great and just came off a strong road CL victory, but I do have some $$ to play with. It is just a gut feeling that they show strong today after Real's loss. If they do not win the standings in Spain are really interesting, so I am willing to risk a little that they show up today. If they can get an early goal I think they will roll.

The CL and Europa hangover is looking real once again and why I continue to lay off most of those teams. Maybe I am getting sucked into this one, but we will see. Valencia also had a tough road game at Man U so they likely will not be at full strength either.

Looks good to me, bud, I don't see Barca going winless 4 straight in league. I'm riding along

Barca disappoints once again. Nobody wants to take charge in Spain.

Will have some Nations games for this week and likely post anything I really like for the weekend early as I will be out of town this weekend and have limited time to post.

I have looked over the next few days of the Nations Cup and nothing really stands out as a strong play, at least nothing that does not involve laying serious odds. That of course will not stop me from making a few bets, but I am not risking any significant amounts as I do not want to cut into my bankroll.

For tomorrow, I am playing the following parlay

Romania
Kosovo
Faroe Islands Pk

Posting now, but I think it is likely best to wait to place it as I think the Kosovo line will come down some overnight. The trend seems to be that the larger lines with the lower ranked teams come down once people start betting in Europe. Pays about 3-1 now, but hopefully gets a little better. Tough game here is Faroe Islands, but they have been playing well at home and have to think they have a shot to qualify. You may want to consider playing them at +195 as that enhances the payout to over 4.5 to 1. The Pk offers protection, but if they draw the payout goes down dramatically to about 90 cents on the dollar.

There are certainly some interesting games but they are tough to bet as the top teams are not as motivated as the lower level ones. England/Croatia and Netherlands/Germany top the list. Not sure what to expect out of Croatia right now and I never trust England on the road. Germany is a mess right now. Many of the top players do not even want to play, so they are a definite no play for me. No matter what Germany does, this game is very big for the Dutch as they have not beaten Germany in a meaningful match in over 25 years, so it would be a great win even though I still would not consider this a competitive match.

Starting tomorrow, I will be traveling for a few days, but hopefully I should be able to add a few updates here and there.

Big drop in the Romania line overnight all the way down to -156, over $40 move down. No real change in Kosovo. I hate line drops like that and I usually stay away, but I already have them tied to the hockey game last night. I may actually do another parlay with just Kosovo and Faroe that will pay +150.

Sorry, been traveling all day (very long day in the car), but didn't matter anyway as Faroe sucks. That is the problem with these bad teams sometimes they are just bad.

Keeping it short for tomorrow. parlaying

Belgium
Austria

For an extra boost I am tying them to the Penguins -1.5!

Good day today, hit a couple nice parlays.

For tomorrow, I am on these 3 in various bets:

Norway
Bulgaria
Netherland +.5

I do not think Germany will win tomorrow, so I like the Dutch +.5. While these top level games are not that important, this is still a huge game for the Netherlands as they rarely ever beat Germany, so this is their chance. Norway and Bulgaria just look like solid home plays like Belgium and Austria today.

Was hoping to see you on Bulgaria, I am of Bulgarian decent so in general I keep an eye on their international play. They have been coming away with results lately. I watched Cyprus on the road vs Norway, they looked like crap to say the least. Good luck today!

Only one for tomorrow so far

Azerbaijan Ov 2.5 -105- I like them at home tomorrow and I think Malta can get one. Line is too high for my taste on the home team so I will go with the over.

Kosovo looks like a play as they are in good shape to win this group. Not sure how they handle that on the road, so I will likely use them in a parlay or two with a couple NFL games.

My pleasure English, but I am sorry to say that my one and only play for tomorrow is

Spain - their younger group has been impressive post world cup and will be motivated in this one. Just do not see much from this English group on the road. It is a glorified friendly but I like it.

How can a rational person disagree.

I myself could do a lengthy write up on this game, but will spare you the boredom of reading it.

Abbreviated; I think Luis Enrique will want to make a statement. So will the rest of the team after the WC disaster. He has world class players in every position. I think Spain will be very motivated. England: not so much. Our better players look out of sorts, to say the least. It seems like a long time ago that Kane, Sterling or Rashford impressed me either for club or country. Dier is, well, dire. It will be interesting to see how Harry Winks and Joe Gomez do. But this is an unexceptional England team. Jordan Pickford or David De Gea???? Hmmm.....

I honestly think there is a huge WC hangover for England....same for Croatia and France as well. Obviously Spain are not suffering in this regard.

Spain to win 3-0.
