2018-19 Season

[BASON]

Yeah, that is why friendlies are so hard to play. If France wanted to they could have won that game 4 or 5 to nil, but they just didn't play the second half. I rarely play friendlies anymore as their is just too much uncertainty.

Not much to like today in U20. I like the Ukraine, but do not want to lay -1 or -190, so I will parlay them with France tomorrow. Again, not betting much on these games. Just playing for some action.

Easy win by Ukraine yesterday so already have France to finish off a parlay.

Argentina/Mali Ov 2.5 - I like this play. Two strong teams going forward and two that have shown some vulnerability in the back. Mali can score and are very dangerous on the attack, but like the other African teams, they have issues on defense so I see no way they keep Argentina from scoring. I also like the FH Ov 1, but it is pricey. Would also see if you can find an Argentina TT Ov 1.5.

I think we also will see 3 goals in the US game so I will parlay the two overs in addition to the single over play in the Mali game.

Nations League

This tournament has been very good to me so I hope it can continue. Putting this up now as I like the number:

Portugal Un 2.5 -130 - I was surprised to see this number at 2.5. This game is in Portugal where they rarely give up more than 1 goal. They are also playing a Swiss team that is void of great goal scorers and stronger on the defensive end. I only think this number is at 2.5 now because Ronaldo is likely to play. It has been a while since Portugal has played a game at home that has had over 2 goals. I do not play a lot of unders but I think this is a play at 2.5.

Should also have play in the England game on Thursday but need to get a better read on who is playing as the CL final could have an impact on this one.

I was just in the process of posting something similar. Mali has netted a goal in 7 straight and 11 of 12 back to 5/18. Obviously Panama, the Saudis, and fellow African nations aren't the same as an Argentinian side. Bovada has Argentina TT Over 1.5 at -175. Was looking at Argentina win/BTTS at +230, Argentina win/Over 1.5 at -125.

I like the Argentina and Ov bets, but those are bets I typically do not play as I prefer to keep it simple. I bet the over bigger than I should of for this tournament, but on paper, it looks like a strong play. Line is moving up.

 

[tt boy]

that was some 2nd half meltdown by France :facepalm:

 

[BASON]

They were cocky and played like that already won the game when they were up 2-1. Have to give the US credit for sticking to their game and putting them away. The US is impressive offensively. If the defense can hold up, they can win this thing. They have a clear path to the finals if they continue to play like that.

No more bets for me in this tournament. The Argentina Ov was just a brutal loss, so I am not blowing any more money on these games.

Still like the Un 2.5 in the Portugal game this afternoon.

 

[BASON]

I guess the 2.5 was the right line with Ronaldo playing as he scores 3 himself!

I will not be posting anything in the Women's WC, as I really do not care about it. Follow Kid as I expect he will do well.

I may post one or two Euro qualifiers but there are a lot of mis-matches so not a lot to get excited about.

 

[BASON]

Probably another sucker play, but I am playing the Ov 2 in the Mali/Italy game. Mali scores on everyone and I do not think it will be any different against an Italy team that really has not looked that good. I think Mali can win this game but I will stick with the over.

 

[BASON]

Finally an easy over.

I like the US in a pk tomorrow. This is a very good offensive team. SA teams have underperformed once again in Europe and I think we see the last team standing out tomorrow. I like the US's path to the final.

Copa America

Brazil -2.5 - I played this last night. Tournament is in Brazil so I expect them to beat Bolivia handily. I also think they tend to play better as a team when Neymar is not playing.

 

[BASON]

I am making a small play on Ecuador+ in the U20 third place game. I do not think Italy wants to be in this game at all.

 

[tt boy]

I'll try Ecuador again today also:firing:..Had them on Tuesday and got burned:facepalm:

 

[tt boy]

that scoreless 1st half in Brazil may have done us in :scared

 

[johnnyb]

I have Brazil HEAVY and hope they score a few more times. That said, this team is redic stacked, r playing against trash and look like an MLS team. They should be destroying Bolivia

Thanks, it was a good second half. I actually played it again at halftime. Bolivia is just bad away from home. Should have some more in this tournament up later.

 

[BASON]

Columbia/Argentina Ov 2 - Just too tempting for me given the talent upfront with both of these teams. Could easily be a 1-0 game but hopefully we get a goal in the FH and then the game will open up.

Nothing in the Venezuela/Peru game. I see a 1-1 type game.

 

[tt boy]

finally Columbia on the board with 20' remaining...let's go Argentina. Get us one for the push:scared

 

[BASON]

Got the push just took too long to get that first goal.

Qatar/Paraguay FH Draw - I thought about just playing the Under in this one. Qatar can play some defense and does not have a lot upfront. It is huge that they got the invite here and really a chance to see how they stack up against better competition. I am going with the FH draw instead as I expect it to take a while for these teams to feel each other out.

Uruguay - Ecuador sticking with a lot of older players and they have not looked very good lately. Getting a good price on the better team.

I also like Spain in a Pk in the opening of the U21 Euro. Likely use in a parlay with Norway women and Uruguay.
