Οι Εμβόλιμες Αγωνιστικές...

Πιστεύω ότι το να στοιχηματίζει κάποιος σε εμβόλιμες αγωνιστικές είναι από τα μεγαλύτερα ρίσκα που μπορεί να πάρει.
Οι μεγάλες ομάδες ναι μεν έχουν βάθος στο πάγκο και την δυνατότητα να κάνουν rotation, αλλά οι υποχρεώσεις πλέον είναι πάρα πολλές και υψηλών απαιτήσεων, ειδικά σε διοργανώσεις όπως το Champions League.
Από την άλλη πλευρά οι λεγόμενες μικρές ομάδες δεν έχουν ευρωπαϊκές υποχρεώσεις αλλά είτε έχουν φτωχό ρόστερ, είτε η ποιότητα των ποδοσφαιριστών τους δεν είναι τέτοια ώστε να τους επιτρέψει να αντεπεξέλθουν, ψυχολογικά και σωματικά, στις αγωνιστικές υποχρεώσεις τους.
Αποτέλεσμα όλων αυτών οι ομάδες να παρουσιάζουν αστάθεια στην απόδοσή τους και οι λεγόμενες εκπλήξεις να είναι πιο πιθανές.
Στοιχηματικά η αυτοσυγκράτηση είναι επιβεβλημένη. Αποχή ή πολύ μικρά πονταρίσματα σε τυχόν παιχνίδια που θα παρακολουθήσουμε "ζωντανά" στην τηλεόραση, θα κάνουν καλό στην τσέπη μας.

Numancia - Santander (Spain Prim. 26/10/08)

Η Numancia βρίσκεται στη τελευταία θέση της βαθμολογίας, λόγω του δύσκολου προγράμματος που είχε μέχρι τώρα.. Παρά τις δυσκολίες στο σκοράρισμα που παρουσιάζει, υπάρχουν πολύ χειρότερες ομάδες στην Primera. Μέχρι τώρα έχει γενικό συντελεστή τερμάτων (gd: 5-13) και στην έδρα της ο αντίστοιχος συντελεστής είναι (gd: 2-2).

Η Santander από την πλευρά της επιθετικά δεν έχει καμία σχέση με την περσινή ομάδα, δυσκολεύεται να δημιουργήσει ευκαιρίες και να διατηρήσει ένα σταθερό ρυθμό για ενενήντα λεπτά. Έχοντας γενικό συντελεστή τερμάτων (gd:4-8), και εκτός έδρας (gd:2-3), νομίζω ότι και αυτή θα συμβάλλει ώστε το παιχνίδι να τελειώσει με λίγα γκολ.

Good Luck!!!

Hoffenheim - Hamburg SV (Bund.1 26/10/08)

Η Hoffenheim και Hamburg είναι δυο ομάδες που βρίσκονται στην τρίτη και δεύτερη θέση της βαθμολογίας παίζοντας εξαιρετικό ποδόσφαιρο.

Η Hoffenheim έχει στα έξι τελευταία παιχνίδια, συντελεστή τερμάτων (gd:17-14) και συνολικά (gd:21-14) σε δέκα παιχνίδια.

Το Hamburg, που σαφώς αδικείται από το αποτέλεσμα του ντέρμπι της προηγούμενης αγωνιστικής, έχει πρόσφατο συντελεστή (gd:11-9) και συνολικό (gd:15-12).

Πιστεύω σε ανοιχτό παιχνίδι και over 2.5 goal.

Good Luck!!!

Everton - Man Utd (Premier League 25/10/08)

Everton and Man Utd face each other,early tomorrow afternoon at Goodison Park.
Toffees are in bad condition and especially defensively as they have the worst defensive record in Premier League (Overall gd: 12-18, Home gd: 4-10), while their last victory was away against Stoke City (2 - 3) on 14/09/08. Additional to all these important players are out formed or injured. Lars Jacobsen due injured, Tim Cahill due suspension.
On the other side Man Utd is in a constant upward path, the team has found a good pace and the morale is high after the victory against Celtic on Tuesday.
It’s important to mention that Man Utd has won seven of the last eight games at Goodison Park.
Carrick, Scholes and Hargreaves are all out.

After all my choice is an Away Win, Asian Handicap: Man Utd (-1).

Good Luck!!!

Pick: Asian Handicap Man Utd(-1) *

UEFA Cup and the Ancient Greeks!

Ancient Greeks used to say "Δις εξαμαρτείν ουκ ανδρός σοφού εστί", in free translation "unwise the man who did the same mistake twice".
I used to bet on UEFA Cup games, until I got a few hard lessons and I don't intent to do the same mistake again.
Betting on UEFA Cup games? No thanks!

Tomorrow is a new day...

Man Utd - Celtic (Champ. League 21/10/08)

Celtic for second time in three years visiting the Old Traffort, to face Manchester United.

“Red Devils” have found their pace after a slow start to the season, on contrary Celtic is one of the weakest away teams in Champions League, while has managed to gain only one point from sixteen games away.

Gordon Strachan’s team struggle too hard to find the net this year plus that have huge problems due to injury, George Samaras, Killen and Vennegoor of Hesselink are all out.

Hargreaves Carrick, Scholes and Patrick Evra will be missing from Man Utd.

Its expected to be a very tough game with fast pace.

The quality of Man Utd is undoubted and with such kind of players in the front line I believe that the choice of Handicap Man Utd (-1), it’s a worthy one.

Good Luck!!!


Pick: Man Utd, Handicap (-1)*
Odds: 1.75

Hull - West Ham (Premier League 19/10/08)

Hull and West Ham teams that play quality football and score easily.

The Hull is three points from the top and comes from two consecutive away wins against Arsenal and Tottenham and now playing against another opponent from London. Gardner, Giannakopolous and Fagan are injured.
West Ham lost the last game against
Bolton at Upton Park, but this didn’t harm the confidence of the players, who play quality football and feel pretty sure about themselves. The addition of Diego Tristan will be very important, but not for today.


Hull: Overall gd: (10-11), Home gd: (4-8)

West Ham: Overall gd: (14-13), Away gd: (4-7)

I believe at over 2.5 goal.


Good Luck!!!

Espanyol - Villarreal FC (Sp. Primera 18/10/08)

Espanyol is definitely a team with passion and power. This year did not start well, and this is mainly due to sustained injuries of key players. In the last two games faced Barcelona, and lost by an imaginary penalty, at the last minute of extra time. Against Real Madrid, at Santiago Bernabeu, took the lead twice. Ivan de La Pena is still doubtful.
On the other side Villarreal wasn’t the better team in the pitch against Betis, especially at the first half Betis lost o lot of chances to succeed a second goal and finish the game. “Yellow Submarine” looked tired and without pace. Eguren and Nihat are injured.
I would like to remind you that Villarreal face Aalborg on Tuesday for the Champions League.
I am sure that Espanyol is going to be a tough rival for Villarreal this night and my choice is: Asian Handicap for Espanyol +0.25.

Good Luck!!!

Greece - Moldova (WC 2010 Qual. Europe - 11/10/08)

Greece is in the first place of the group after the two relatively easy away victories against Luxembourg (0-3) and Latvia (0-2).
They will try to win the next two games at home – Moldova & Switzerland - and to become the undisputed favourite for the first place of the second group and qualify directly to the World Cup.
Greece, with Otto Rehhagel at the bench is extremely seriously when has to face a weaker opponent and has avoid the unpleasant surprises with the minor national teams.
George Karagounis and probably Giourkas Seitaridis out due to injury. If Giourkas Seitaridis not play then Otto Rehhagel will use Loukas Vyntra on the right side of defence.
Moldova is a better team than the results indicate so far, especially with Latvia has had much more than they finally gained.
It 's at the bottom of the group with zero points and gd 2-4.
They are going to play defensively but I think that Greece will find a way to break their defense.

In this game I’ll prefer the handicap -1,5-2 goal, especially at the prices it’s offered.

Good Luck!!!

Setubal - Maritimo (Portugal Super Liga - 07/10/08)

The current game in Bonfim, between Vitoria Setubal and Maritimo completes the 5th turn of Portuguese Super Liga. Both teams coming from European obligations in the UEFA cup. Setubal, defeated in Holland from Heerenveen (5-2) on Thursday, is found in the 9th place of the table, having the best at home with two victories, all with score 1-0.
On the other hand Maritimo , despite the exclusion, made a satisfactory away appearance with Valencia(1-2). Coach, Lori Sandri, it hopes that the game with Setubal will be the beginning of a new start for his team, so that it can escape from the 13th place that is found until now, with only one win in four games and without having score any goal in the two up to now away games.

Vitoria Setubal: Overall gd 3-2, Home gd 2-0
Maritimo: Overall gd 2-2, Away gd 0-1.

I believe in a closed match with Under 2.5 goals.

Good Luck!!!

Pick: Under 2.5 *

Panthrakikos - Panionios Athens (Super League - 05/10/08)

Panthrakikos this year participates for first time in Super League. The inexperience and the stress in first games were particularly obvious for the border team, but in the last two games, defensively at least, was perceptibly improved. In his last away game Panthrakikos achieved a 0-0 draw with experienced Iraklis, having as his better player the Spanish goalkeeper Roca.
Panionios, with gone up psychology because the very good performance with AEK Athens, is of course a better team and with enormous experience in this category, goes to Komotini hoping to the second consecutive away victory. The team of Athens can’t calculate in the help of injured Fabian Estoyanoff, while Alvaro Recoba is not still ready 100%.

I believe in a tied game and the draw is the most possible outcome.

Pick: Draw *
Odds: 3.20
Stake: 4/10
Bookmaker: Eurobet
Match Result: 1-0 Loss -4

Osasuna - Santander (Spain Primera - 05/10/08)

A game between the 14th and the 19th team of Primera, two teams with obvious problems in attack and without a victory up to now. Osasuna afterwards the very mediocre appearance with Numancia, remained five games without victory and three without has achieved a single goal. Although the continuous changes in the front line the team has not accomplished to find her pace and it remains with a goal difference 2-3.

On the other hand Santander (gd 3-8), has a lot of up and downs in its performance at the duration of games and with visible problems in creative game. I would like to remind you that midweek, Racing travelled in Finland for Uefa Cup, probably it would be tired.

I expect a closed game and less from 2.5 goal.

Good luck!!!
