AC soccer plays 2012

[achandicap]

Disappointing day, going 5-4 but losing the two big bets and dropping 2.28 units.

Cwright: Each leg in a match is treated separately, so even though Levadia advanced in the two-leg match, they lost this leg 2-1. That's one of the big things to think about when betting tournament soccer, especially the second leg. The better team often doesn't need to win to advance.

Flipper: I like the pick, but England's U23 side is pretty talented, and at home will be tough to beat.

Nothing from Ireland today, and only three games in Brazil Saturday.

Record: 129-109, +17.65

Brazil is loaded. ;-)

 

[achandicap]

Brazil is definitely loaded for the Olympics. But that's a long trip and like the World Cup, it's tough to win on another continent. I like your odds, but I'd take a stab at Great Britain +925.

One for Saturday.

BRAZIL
Atletico MG PK -110/Figueirense, 2 units

I added more on Brazil +190 then played a little on England and Mexico...if any of the three win, I make out pretty well...go athletico!

SUNDAY

IRELAND ( 7 a.m. Pacific)
Drogheda +.5 -102/St. Patrick's, 3 units


BRAZIL
Palmeiras PK +126/Sao Paulo, 4 units

St. Patrick's just played 120 minutes in Iceland Thursday and have to travel to Bosnia this coming Thursday. Sao Paulo is missing two key midfielders to the Olympic team. While Palmeiras might have a Copa do Brazil hangover, they should have had enough time to recover and beat a thin team.

Record: 130-109, +19.65

Nice three unit profit

I have two Champs League Unders I want to play early, but waiting for the lines to adjust so the juice isn't so heavy. I'll post them in the morning.

AEL Limassol/Linfield U2.75 +101, 1 unit

 

[achandicap]

5Dimes doesn't have a lot of spread lines up, and what they do have are 30-cent lines. I'm going to wait until morning. First matches are at 8 a.m. Pacific. Hope to have pre-9 a.m. matches up by 5:30 a.m., with more to follow.

Record: 134-115, +19.55

THURSDAY
BRAZIL
Figueirense +.5 -122/Atletico Goianiense, 1 unit

 

[achandicap]

A real up-and-down day Thursday. Looked for sure it would end with a few units up, but AGO scored in the 86th minute to turn Figueirense into a loser. Net result: +0.05 units. Better than a loss, I guess.

FRIDAY
IRELAND
Drogheda PK +124/Shelbourne, 3 units

Sticking with this plucky underdog side. With Sligo, St. Patrick's and Shamrock playing in Europe, Drogheda can get into the thick of the title race with a win here.

Record: 140-120.5, +19.60

Nice one...Sorry I was late to the party.

TUESDAY
COPA SUDAMERICANA
Cobreloa PK +133/Tacuary, 1 unit

South America's secondary international tournament starts this week. Tacuary, from Praguay, finished third in last year's standings, but since has gone 1-8-13 (W-T-L) in 2012. Cobreloa, from Chile, hasn't fared much better and is on the road. But Cobreloa is the better team, from a better country; and Tacuary hasn't played a competitive match in six weeks. Finally, we're getting plus-odds on the pick.
