German Weekend

Friday

Schalke- Duisburg: Schalke -1.5 @ 1.90

Schalke should win this. They are the much better team and after some problems ove rthe last month the advancing in champ. league gave them a big boost. That was shown in a very solid 2-0 away win at Bielefeld last week, which brought them in contention again for the top spots in league. Duisburg meanwhile is at the bottom of the league and although they are playing a bit better lately they simply get no points.
It s a derby, but one where Schalke always wins…they have won the last 3 home games vs. Duisburg without conceiding a goal.
Everybody available for Schalke, while Duisburg is missing Schlicke and Isiahaku.
Only reason not to make it a big play is the fact that Duisburg played games close lately and a one goal loss is a possibility, but Schalke should get the two goals needed for the cover.



2. Bundesliga


Offenbach- Jena: Offenbach pk,-0.5 @ 1.89 and over 2.5,3 @ 1.90 !! 2 units!!


Two bottom teams, but Offenbach just above the relegation zone due to a very solid home form. They have only one loss in last 9 games overall (although a lot of draws) and are simply solid at home , especially against the other teams from relegation zone. Although with a couple of 1-1 draws, in 7 of last 8 games overall they have scored and conceided, which is usually a very solid base for an over.
Jena sitting at the bottom does not have a lot of hope left, but at least they are trying. This is shown in a very attacking style. Problem is that although attacking and scoring they are not capable of shutting anybody gown. This led to 8 of last 9 games going over. With both teams desperately going for the win goals should be plenty here.


Wehen- Kaiserslautern under 2.5 @ 1.90


Wehen plays better defense lately and they will not be a dominant team here, as Kaiserslautern is fighting for it s life. Problem for Kaiserslautern is that they have no offensive power at all.
A draw is likely but scoring should be hard to come by.

[Betting4Fun]

Schalke...damn bastards ,going to cost me 2 plays today if not moving their sorrow arse 2nd half,ah well,win some lose some.

 

[Betting4Fun]

Now it looks great for me..if just over..hopefully Schalke scores one more for you and certainly not concede!

How games which suppose to be so easy turn to be so hard?LOL

 

[chriscol]

Saturday

Cottbus- München: München -1,-1.5 @ 1.87

München will try to keep momentum and increase the lead in league. They now have von 4 of last 5 away games (with a 0-0 at Berlin) and own Cottbus. They won 5-0 in München and won the last 3 matches at Cottbus. Van Bommel is suspended, but who cares, they are strong enough no matter who plays. The cup match on Wednesday was a joke as they played either with juniors or regulars for a max of 45 min. the effort was not even like in a full practise. So rest will not be a problem.
Cottbus meanwhile is dead last and showing no hope. They lost on Tuesday at home to Stuttgart 0-1 in a pathetic display. Stuttgart was awful, but Cottbus although at home was not even trying to do anything. No urgency shown in the team, which is last is never a good sign.





Rostock- Berlin under 2.5,2 @ 1.97


Rostock fighting against relegation, but doing well especially at home. Their success is based on a solid defense as they played 6 of last 7 games under the number. I don’t expect any change here. They are missing Rahn and Beinlich, but should not be a big problem for the total.
Berlin is also playing very solid defense lately leading to 4 unders in a row. A draw is likely here, but there should not be many goals.


Karlsruhe- Frankfurt: Karlsruhe pk,-0.5 @ 1.87


Karlsruhe with a good chance to win, but I still think they are overrated and recent performances have shown that. Still they are the better team here, as Frankfurt is struugling at the moment with only one point from last 4 games. Not much more to say here. Better team at home, but draw is possible.


Bochum- Stuttgart: Bochum pk,+0.5 @ 1.87


Bochum is a solid mid table team, especially at home they can play with anybody. They are coming off a away draw and had two big home wins before over Hannover and in-form Leverkusen. For me the lines is just not right to make Stuttgart a fav here.
Stuttgart has won 4 games in a row now, but they are solely relying on striker Gomez. They are missing Meira with injury. Gomez should be back (he was a late scratch in the Cottbus match on Tuesday with a minor injury). Draw is likely here and even a straight up Bochum win.

Soccer is really the worst sport to bet.How can Bayern Munich not even score one goal against the worst team in the league and how can Cottbus score 2 goals against the best defense? The books must have made a killing on that game. This game reminds me the hard way to stay far away from soccer and especially from big public favs.

 

[TheBrainiac]

Was watching this game on TV and Bayern sucked ! They also missed a penalty for 1-1 tie .

ManU is maybe even worse tho because they only managed to score 1 goal in 75th minute against a worse team than Cottbus probably .

2. Bundesliga
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
Gladbach- ST.Pauli: St.Pauli +1,+1.5 @ 1.89
<o></o>
Gladbach is the league leader, but they are not as dominant any more as they were in first half. They have steadied the ship with an away win last week, but still struggle a bit at home. They have problems to put teams away and have a tendency to play home games under (usually due to opponents playing defensive and Gladbach struggling to beat this style). They have only won one of last 4 home games. St.Pauli is the perfect fit for teams that can cause problems to Gladbach. They stay in every game : away or home. Although close to relegation zone they only lost 2 of last 13 games (both crazy 3-4 losses). <o></o>
I am not saying they definitely get a point here as Gladbach is still the better team and at home, but they should keep it close and maybe get the upset draw.<o></o>
<o></o>
<o></o>
München- Mainz : under 2.5,2 @ 1.95
<o></o>
München has no offensive power at all right now due to injuries. Last 4 games have ended 0-1,0-0,0-0,0-0…so solid defense, but no scoring. Mainz has also 6 unders in last 8 and it what should be a close match will not go all out for offense here in an away game.<o></o>
<o></o>
Osnabrück- Augsburg: Osnabrück pk,-0.5 @2.1
<o></o>
Both teams in midfield right now, but still need points vs. relegation. Osnabrück coming of an away win, and although they struggled in last 3 home games they were one of the best in league in first half of season. With the extra confidence of the away win and therefore a bit less pressure to get “must “points at home they should get back to old home strength. Augsburg not winning in last 5 in losing last 2 is on a downs slide right now. They are also missing their best striker with injury and one player on defense with suspension..all not a good setup for them.<o></o>
<o></o>
Regionalliga Nord<o></o>
<o></o>
Wolfsburg- Wuppertal: Wuppertal –0.5,-1 @2.04
<o></o>
Wolfsburg is by far the worst team in league and almost already relegated . they are simply bad. Now they have 2 players missing with suspension and 2guys from the youth team wil probably get their first start. <o></o>
Wuppertal is struggling a bit after being the leader in first half of season, but this should be the right opponent to get back on track.<o></o>
<o></o>
Regionalliga Süd:<o></o>
<o></o>
Reutlingen- Oggersheim: Reutlingen –1,-1.5 @ 1.85
<o></o>
Reutlingen in mid of table is coming of a big away win at than leader Sandhausen. They are now facing by far the worst team in league. Oggersheim with only 8 points from 21 games lsot last week 0-6 at home and is showing no hope.

1.Bundesliga

Leverkusen- Nürnberg: Leverkusen -1 @ 2.10

Leverkusen the much better team here, especially at home. They also are on a great run.only negative is that they had the big uefa-match at Hamburg on Wednesday and fatigue might be a factor. But it should still be enough for Nürnberg which is helpless at the moment. They are sitting in relegation zone, mainly due to a lack of offensive power. They have lost now the last 8 away games.


Bremen- Wolfsburg: Wolfsburg +1 @ 1.83


Bremen is struggling at the moment. They have lost 2 in a row, still missing Diego with suspension (although I don’t believe actually a big factor), but they got eliminated thursday vs. Rangers in uefa cup in a very emotional way.
Actually they have dominated the game totally, but has to get a 2-0 win. It was 90 min pressing looking for two goals, but somehow they just managed one. Anyway a big blow to their European hopes and although they usually comeback strong in Bundesliga from Uefa set-backs I am not sure how they will react this time around.
Wolfsburg is one of the better teams in 2<SUP>nd</SUP> half of season so far and definitely not scared to attack here. With fatigue definitely a factor for Bremen, after the way they played yesterday, Wolfsburg should be able to keep this close and have a good chance for points.

[MarkieMark+]

Anything for FREIBURG vs. KOLN ?

I am thinking OVER 2.5 but would like to hear your opinions on this match.

 

[chriscol]

for those interested...Dortmund should win today cup match. i would give the -1.5 a 60 % chance. if you have other plays in the mix i would take the ML @ 1.29 in a parlay.

i like München -1,-1.5 @ 1.96 very much today

 

[Betting4Fun]

i like München -1,-1.5 @ 1.96 very much today

Wouldn't touch them with 10 feet pole,
had enough of Bayern this year.
(Bolton,aberdeen,Munich1860,Cottbus)
I was thinking of Picking Wolfsburg +1.5
but decided to leave it alone this time since
Bayern had their disgrace/hall of shame last weeekend
and doubt repeat it twice in a row,on other hand recent games
were all over by 1 goal and its a cup game.

If you played Bayern GL.

 

[chriscol]

2-0 winner
