Brainiac’s 2007/2008 Soccer Thread

TheBrainiac · Sep 9, 2008

Pretty crazy considered they won 2-0 on road in the first meeting and today they had to win to advance , I guess they tried to score late and received one but it didnt really matter anymore . 0.80 units up today as both other plays cashed .

Brazil - Serie B
http://www.soccerway.com/national/brazil/serie-b/2008/

Start time : 4:29 PM PST

Marilia AC vs EC Santo Andre ( Total )

My pick is OVER 2.5 and 3 GOALS

Odds : - 102

Bookmaker : pinnaclesports

3.06 units to win 3 units

Both have teams to win and I dont think either would be happy with 1 point for a draw . Home team is fighting to stay in Serie B as they are just 3 points ahead of 16th-19th ranked teams who all have 23 points . Santo Andre on the other hand is ranked 3rd and can join Serie A next season if they finish in top 4 .

Brazil - Serie B
http://www.soccerway.com/national/brazil/serie-b/2008/

Start time : 4:29 PM PST

CRB Maceio vs CA Bragantino ( Asian Handicap / Spread )

My pick is CA Bragantino PK

Odds : - 108

Bookmaker : pinnaclesports

5.4 units to win 5 units

http://www.soccerway.com/match/serie-b/clube-de-regatas-brasil/clube-atltico-bragantino/598867/

CRB only won 4 times out of 23 games this season and Bragantino lost just 7 out of 23 , 20th vs 7th ranked team here and I will take Bragantino PK at close to even money any day against a team that only got 15 points in 23 games . Bragantino has 4th best defense out of 20 teams in the league and road games they losses were against 3rd , 4th , 5th , 6th and ( 12th ) ranked teams , 3-6th ranked teams all combined lost just 6 games at home out of 46 games in their own stadiums .

TheBrainiac · Sep 10, 2008

Marilia AC 2:0 EC Santo Andre
CRB Maceio 0:2 CA Bragantino

2 late goals in Marilla game didnt save my over but Bragantino scored 2 in the first half to win the game .

RTD : 309-185 + 588.01 units

World Cup Qualifiers - Europe

Start time : 11:29 AM PST

Switzerland vs Luxembourg ( Asian Handicap / Spread )

My pick is Switzerland - 3

Odds : + 110

Bookmaker : pinnaclesports

5 units to win 5.5 units

After letting 0-2 lead slip in the last 15 minutes of their match against Israel Switzerland will try to get their first 3 points in this group and no doubt they will do it so only question here is how big they win , dont count on Luxembourg to score so in worst case I see a push here in 3-0 home win , Alex Frei finally back after his injury and this should give them a nice boost in confidence .

fvkin turkey laying an egg :finger:

Absolute disgrace this swiss outfit

HuskerFan1 · Sep 10, 2008

what was the line on that game without laying all the goals...just a regular line with the draw included...

im curious as to how big a fav they were...

TheBrainiac · Sep 10, 2008

Sick results today , Luxemburg is leading 1-2 atm against Switzerland , if they win it will be like biggest upset I have ever seen in soccer , odds on their win probably were like 100 pre-match .

WTF happened with the Suisse today? Wow, what did the ML on Luxemburg pay? Absolutely brutal!

Icemantbi · Sep 10, 2008

These were the pre-match odds.

Switzerland - Luxembourg 1.04 10.50 46.00

46-1 on Luxemburg on the win line. Wow.

EDIT: Thought I'd add, lots of rumors about a fix going around. Hmmm...

TheBrainiac · Sep 10, 2008

This was plain sick , I still dont believe this was legit , no way Switzerland can go down at home against a team like Luxemburg ...

Neither do I Brain. They were fielding their best players today, same team that did decently at Euro 2008. There is just no explanation for this result. None. A Luxemburg team full of amateurs going against a Swiss team, which all their players play in various pro leagues around Europe? I mean, upsets happen, but not on this magnitude. Something stinks in this one.
