Good day and the Kalmar machine rolls on.

I'd like to see them in a friendly against the L.A. Galaxy. Could be your first 13-12 soccer match.:toast:
Funny thing about this team is that they seemingly can score when they really want to. Ljungskile tied it up at 1-1 and Kalmar scored 3 minutes later.

Since it's been slow the first part of the week I figured I would post my system records as a recap. I will have a few matches for Wednesday in a later post.

My first system has been Dr. Jekyl/Mr. Hyde:

Post....Team.........Result
---------------------------
52......NEC Nijmegen +1.05
71......NEC Nijmegen +0.73
86......NEC Nijmegen +0.99
120.....NEC Nijmegen +1.10
125.....NEC Nijmegen +0.91
129.....NEC Nijmegen +0.84
134.....NEC Nijmegen +1.93
146.....NEC Nijmegen +0.80
165.....Qviding..... +1.15
192.....Athlone..... +1.09
198.....Galway...... +0.94
199.....Limerick.... -1.00
199.....Athlone..... +0.98
212.....Väsby....... +1.20
212.....Enköping.... -1.00
226.....Galway...... -1.00
226.....Sligo....... +0.00
226.....Shamrock.... -1.00
226.....Atlantis.... +0.95
236.....H-Linna..... +0.93
236.....Strømsgodset +0.69

Then I started following Kalmar:

Post....Team.........Result
---------------------------
74......Kalmar +1.11
88......Kalmar +0.93
96......Kalmar +3.15
108.....Kalmar +1.71
115.....Kalmar +1.13
118.....Kalmar -1.00
125.....Kalmar 0.00
150.....Kalmar -3.00
159.....Kalmar +0.75
182.....Kalmar -2.00
212.....Kalmar +0.96
238.....Kalmar.. +0.63

Then I developed the Killer Bees:

Post....Team.........Result
---------------------------
152.....Elfsborg... +0.80
180.....Oulu....... -1.00
182.....Fredrikstad +2.18
194.....Lyn........ +0.78
199.....Limerick... -1.00
212.....Molde...... -1.00
212.....Kalmar..... +0.96
238.....Elfsborg... +1.21

And finally I have been tracking my pk bets where a team has been on a non-losing streak:

Post....Team.........Result
---------------------------
15......Åtvidaberg.. +0.00
165.....Qviding..... +1.15
187.....Helsingborg. +1.00
187.....HamKam...... -1.00
189.....Hammarby.... +0.00
198.....Galway...... +0.94
238.....Bodø/Glimt.. +0.85

UEFA Champions League Qualification
Olympique Marseille -0.5 1.85 over SK Brann Bergen (2 units)
Brann's woes have been mentioned in this thread previously. They advanced to this round by virtue of winning one match at home and tieing the number of goals against Ventspils. The team with the most away goals continues on in cases like this.

Marseille is in France's Ligue 1 which is a top league in Europe. Brann is in Norway's Tippeligaen which is on a lower level than Ligue 1. Ventspils is in the Latvian league which is even lower than the Norwegian league. The point here is that Marseille is a step above this Brann team which barely advanced against a team from a weaker league.

Marseille should want to get away goals as this is the tie-breaker so they won't hold back. The only thing that could cause a draw here is possible bad weather in Bergen.

Three Dr. Jekyl picks-

Finland - Ykkönen
Atlantis +0.5 2.06 over PS Kemi Kings
Atlantis has only won once on the road in the league. However, they have only lost one road match in their last 4 and that was against JJK which is an excellent home team. Atlantis will be looking for a draw on the road I believe as 6 out of their last 8 matches have been draws.

Kemi Kings have a middle-of-the-road home record.

Sweden - Superettan
Qviding FIF Goteborg +0.5 1.65 over Angelholms FF
Qviding has only lost to Falkenberg in their last 4 away matches.

This falls under my Killer Bees, Dr. Jekyl and PK systems:
FC Vasby United pk 1.76 over Landskrona BoIS
Vasby won 5 matches out of 6 until they lost to a streaking Falkenbergs team.

See you tomorrow night then GD.

UEFA Champions League Qualification
Olympique Marseille/SK Brann Bergen over 2 1/2 1.95
Marseille scored 4 goals last weekend. They should be able to score on Brann now that the weather shouldn't be too much of a factor. It's raining lightly in Bergen but the pitch is still in good condition.

thanks for Marseille winner Q :103631605:toast:

I rarely post a 2-unit play here. When I do I feel pretty good about it. As you can see I put a bit of research into it by the amount of wording I used for the pick.

Glad you won as well.

Perhaps these Dr. Jekyl picks should be on home matches only. I'll check my numbers from above.

Another road loss for the system.

Vasby 1, Landskrona 1, Push, 0.00

My apologies to anyone who may have followed my Atlantis pick. I am now reading that information was available as early at 6am Pacific time that there were 2 suspensions and 2 injuries for the Atlantis side which lead to the large loss against Kemi.

I will now be making my picks closer to match time in the morning.

UEFA Cup Qualifiers
Kalmar FF/KAA Gent over 2 1/2 1.85
I won't be betting on Kalmar in this match because I'm not familiar with the difference in the 2 leagues. However, I believe Kalmar will be able to score and their defense should give up a few to Gent from a stronger league.

Ireland FA Cup
Cork City pk 1.75 over Shamrock
Cork City has a very good record on the road. Recently suffered a defeat against league-leader Bohemians so this will be both a PK and a Killer Bees play.

Norway - Adeccoligaen
Hønefoss pk 2.13 over Bryne
This is my PK system in action here. Bryne has not won in their last 10 matches including losing their last 4.
