Benrik's Soccer Plays

[benrik]

I just joined this forum and I like it already, many more people in the soccer forum than the one Ive been using.

1* Arsenal -0.5 over SV Salzburg @ 1.69

I'll start with that today but will probably add more.

1* Bayern München -0.5 over Stuttgart @ 1.91

--not bad odds her. I think BM has something to prove this season and should here against die Bundesliga champions.

benrik glad to have you in the forum. do everyone a favor and make sure to keep track of your record.

it definitely helps people who are possibly tailing you. as things heat up in august with the good leagues beginning, this room hopefully is seeing alot of action.

A lot of people like Bayern Munich today. They think it will be a "statement" game for them.
GL on your picks.

Nice hit with Bayern. Have no idea what happened to Arsenal though...

 

[Absinthe]

I've watched the game...there were just too much substitutions and that messed up the game.Red Bull scored in a fortunate situation and that's it.Van Persie wanted to do all by himself instead of passing to Eduardo.

 

[benrik]

Arsenal are just too hit or miss. Honestly, they're my favourite English team so maybe my judgement is a little clouded. Still, I saw the first half and it was vintage Arsenal -- way too many passes and you're right, aside from Van Persie, nobody takes shots on that team.

1-1-0 (-0.10 Units)

1* Newcastle -0.25 over Celtic @ 1.87

--Celtic did not look all that impressive on their short tour of the US and now they're on the road again in Newcastle who will rest some of their stars but still field a solid lineup.

(sorry for the short notice)

Newcastle wins 4-1

2-1 (+0.76 Units)

1* Schalke +0.5 over Bayern Munich @ 1.85

-- Too many important players missing for Bayern today and I dont expect them to crush Schalke.

 

[benrik]

1* Tromso v. Rosenborg OVER 2.5 @1.69

-- Just going by the fact that each team has gone over in four of their last five games.

 

[benrik]

1* Athlone Town -0.5 over Wexford Youths @ 1.99

-- AT have a number of injuries but have already defeated WY comfortably twice this season.

benrik - any thoughts on the asian cup final?? i have a lean on iraq getting the .5 in regulation . i can see this game heading to PKs

 

[benrik]

1* Athlone Town -0.5 over Wexford Youths @ 1.99

Athlone Town lost 1-0

3-3 (-0.59 Units)

 

[benrik]

Athlone Town lost 1-0

3-3 (-0.59 Units)

Guys, apparently I didn't actually make the bet on Athlone Town. I guess I didn't confirm it. So, how do you want me to record this? Should I stay at 3-3 (-0.59 Units) or revert back to 3-2 (+0.41 Units) as if this bet was never mentioned?
---------------------------------------

As for the Asian Cup final, I have no idea. Id probably back Saudi Arabia but it would be great to see Iraq win. I haven't followed the tournament close enough to have an opinion of my own.

1* Valencia -0.5 over PSG @ 1.94

-- These seem like nice odds. Valencia defeated Inter Milan yesterday while PSG lost to Arsenal. PSG haven't looked all that great this pre-season with 1-0 wins over El Zamalek , FC Aris and Troyes and a 1-0 loss to FC Tours.

The Athlone Town game should be counted. Someone else might have played it.
