Soccer 2016 August-December

Just took Sporting KC -180

What does "Sporting" mean? Like, a nickname or sort of like a club? I'm looking forward to at least sort of keeping up with the MLS playoffs...which I've never ever done before..

Here ya go TD. This explain it better than me but it goes back to portugal

Great start with a goal and up 1-0. Think they cruise here by a coupe. may adda live bet -1.5 in a few

Thanks man! Interesting article....its just tough to market soccer to Americans, myself included. But I'm watching it more than I ever had the last couple months. I wish the world cup was every 2 years...and the women's every 2 years...so there would be one of them every year.

KC/Houston over 4.5 1.2* to win 1*

+47.5* on year

Sporting KC 3.6* to win 2*
KC scores first AND wins 3* to win 2*

This game actually pissed me off. KC was up 2-0 and up 3-2 on the last kick of the game and couldnt close out either lead. got 1 back with over but should have been a nice pick up on a friday night.

+41.9*

Breathtaking Manchester derby in FH.

Man city has just a criminal defense and it's starting to show. Think united carry over last 7 minutes to 2nd half.

United +1 7* to win 5*

 

[BASON]

Got the sweep for the two Bundesliga 2 games today, so going to add Leverkusen -1 -120 to the regular Bundesliga plays. Don't see them losing this game. Chicharito is back which should help the attack.

Good call on Atletico Kid. They finally played well in the second half.

Praying for a late Man U goal here. Can't believe how bad they were in the first half.

Enjoy the Pitt game. Great to see them playing each other again.

 

[BASON]

Great win for Pitt!

Germany plays are rolling and I had a big day overall, so I am going put some more on Hannover tomorrow and add Mainz in the Bundesliga. Getting greedy, so you may want to just keep them as ordinary bets, but got to push it some when your hot and some breaks are going you way, since I doubt I can keep this pace up.

May go with Chelsea under also as the overs were 6-2 in the Premier League today.

Barca loss was unreal. Just a ridiculous loss at home, too bad I didn't have that ML!! This is what they get for taking this team so lightly and sitting many starters. Have to think they are going to put a hurting on Celtic on Tuesday. Going to be a rough few days for them in the press and they are going to need to redeem themselves. I may take them -2.5 right now since I expect that line to rise. That game could get ugly.

 

[PittsburghKid]

Bason, Fantastic game and glad they are finally playing again. THat should be every year.. Narduzzi is doing a wonderful job. Have had season tickets for hoops and football since 96' with my dad since i was 10.

Great work over in Germany. Cant believe the barca result. didnt see anything after 830 am. Sucks Man U couldnt get that equalizer, Did they play well second half? Atletico cancelled that out.

trying to update this all now that im home relaxing.. Love barca against Celtic in many ways. i see maybe 5-0 at least

update in a few here and going to look at stuff going on tomorrow if lines have changed.. also very dissapointed in dortmund. youre the german specialist what gives?

EPL
Bournemouth/WBA 1* to win 2.2*
Burnley/Hull 1* to win 2.1*+1 2.6*
Middlesbrough/Palace 1* to win 2.1*
Leicester/Liverpool draw 1* to win 3*
Leicester 2.6* to win 2*
Leicester FH +.5 3* to win 2*
Leicester +1.5 4* to win 2*

Not big on Leicester this year as of now.. but feel this lie is absurd for a team like Liverpool that is so inconsistent like Liverpool with a defense that struggles to keep clean sheets

Chelsea FH 1* to win 1.2*
Chelsea to score first AND win 2.8* to win 2*
Chelsea 4.8* to win 3*

Really wanted to take Swansea in this game +1.5 because I thought this was a game Chelsea could get caught or sneak out a win... but the more I read and think about stuff I dont see anything Swansea did to improve this off-season and it shows early with some struggles...

La Liga

Atletico Madrid 13* to win 10*
Atletico -1 3* to win 4.5*
Atletico TT over 1.5 2* to win 2.4*
Atletico to record shutout 1* to win 1.4*

Much like Arsenal 2 weeks ago I think this is a must must win for Atletico. I think they win this game 2-0 with a very pragmatic victory as usual. Solid defense and just enough offense for the boys to get the win

Prop

Atletico wins 2- 0 1* to win 5.5*



Bundesliga - taking a page from Bason but Like a game here

Dortmund 3.6* to win 2*

Serie A

only one line stood out to me. Crotone and Empoli are both bottom of the table with 0 points but empoli is -180 over the newly promoted Crotone. Think this tells me that this could line up as a nice victory for the home squad.. This game is on Monday...

Empoli 5.4* to win 3*

MLS

Columbus is having a terrible year but think this game lines up well for them

Columbus 4.2* to win 3*
Timbers 3.9* t win 3*

updated record. +27.1* on year. with Chelsea plays above, empoli, and MLS plays pending

going to look at lines now and if anything new stands out

Already have a play on columbus playing but put this live play in just now. like the way they are playing. lots of possession. gave up an own goal but think they pull this out they have doubled Vancouver in completed passes. pinging the ball around the pitch nicely. They win this.

Columbus 2.2* to win 2*

MLS tonight

Dallas/Colorado draw 1* to win 2.6*
Seattle to win either half 2* to win 2.4*
Seattle win/draw 3* to win 2*

Looking through other stuff but know dallas game starts soon

Champions League

Champions League

Getting some plays up early. Dont want likes changing against me, usually pretty good with getting the right bets in early.

This may surprise some people but I think Arsenal can go to Paris and get a result. Going to hit this a couple ways. am seeing this as a 1-1 game.

Arsenal draw/win 3.3* to win 3*
Arsenal/PSG Both teams to score 2.8* to win 2*
Arsenal Draw 2* to win 5.2*
Arsenal +1.5 5.1* to win 3*

PSV/Atletico draw 1* to win 2.3*

I think Celtic is walking into a buzz-saw come Tuesday. I think this gets ugly and gets ugly early.

I want to find a FH spread, maybe -1. nothing on that posted yet on my sites.. the ML is -300 in FH.. a lock but waiting to see what I want to do

Barca -2.5 8* to win 5*
Barca -3 2* to win 2.2*
Barca/Celtic FH over 1.5 3.9* to win 3*
Highest scoring half 1st half 3* to win 5.7* Great odds here for a team who should come out fast.
Result after 10 minutes Barca lead 1* to win 2.4*


Parlay Barca FH/ Bayern Munich FH 5* to win 4.2*
Parylay Barca FH/Bayern FH/ Real Madrid FH 2* to win 4.2*

Man U played better in the second half but couldn't put it in the net. Ratchford needs to get into the starting line-up. He is very difficult to defend and opens up space all over the field. Rooney was a liability today. He gets in Pogba's way. I think he needs to sit.

I didn't post it but had a small play on Leipzig today. I am not a Dortmund fan and rarely bet on them. They have no killer instinct and can not put teams away. Today was a perfect example, they let Leipzig hang around all night and then paid for it. Too tired to go into all the details, but they made some changes and can't find the right lineup. They are happy playing for second place, which is pathetic to me.

PSG is not in good form right now, so I can see Arsenal giving them a game. Arsenal was not sharp at all today and was given a BS penalty to win the game. Southhampton got robbed. That official needs to be disciplined. He has called a penalty in every game and today's was horrible.

We certainly agree on Barca. I just played them rather large for Tuesday.

[Bradjmad22]

Pitt- Mainz/Hoff is also a straight goal-fest right now; I think Mainz will continue to press second half, and Hoff will do everything they can to get back in this one. I don't expect another 5 goal half, but I think 1 more from each team is def possible with 0 defense being played! Haha



Germany Bundesliga
Second half play
Mainz game over 1.5 (-130)
$390 to win $300


I'm pulling for that over 3.5 in the Chelsea game as well buddy

 

[PittsburghKid]

Great to see you back in here brad!! You're a great valuable asset to this thread


I know it's early but this line will skyrocket , I think

Man U 5.4* to win 3*
Man U -1 3.3* to win 3*
