Went for spurs and city to be over 1.5 goals @ 3-10
Nothing else really appealed to me.

Ace why is that exact same bet @10-1 and 12-1?

There will be more than 10 corners - both teams tactics will be 'run to the corners-and get the ball into the box'

mike65

There should be lots of everything, its the way Carling cup games tend to be - cards, corners, goals.

Mike.

jameshayes

i have blackburn and man city to win @ 6-1 on PP

I'd say there will be more than 10 corners however Arsenal play through the middle and rarely attack the box from anywhere near the byline.

Think I'll do over 2.5 goals for the arsenal match and maybe 9pts or more in the cards index.

EDIT: Misread last post!

redfan

guns all the way . i have me gaf on it .:D

Keano

I am thinking of going for

B Munich half time/full time 1.81

mike65

BM are so bad at the moment I'd stay away from that one. That said they have to win that match to be sure of progressing.

I'm being brave - 100 on double of over 1.5 goals.

Mike.

Keano

What a bad day I am having... I thought the Bayern match was on today! Oh well time to back City

IrishMike

Spurs 1-0 after 5 mins
My bet of over 1.5 is looking good considering spurs defensive record and citys home scoring record

Keano

I got City @ 5.2 - spurs down to 10 as well.

mike65

Arsenal 2 up so half my bet is safe.

Mike.

sorry the 12/1 was if the card index was 55+ sorry about that

arsenal 2-0 up now - all we need are a couple of dirty challenges....

Keano

I backed Blackburn when they got one back! Why oh why did I not do the draw!!

mike65

Happy happy happy!

Mike.

Bubs101

Saw this on Betfair forums, looks very promising and the guy who posted it is Greek

I cannot believe the value given for Panionios' win

1.65 is FREE MONEY!!!

Panionios needs a win to qualify
Bordeaux has already secured first place and ......listen to this......

THE HAVE TRAVELLED TO ATHENS WITH ONLY 15 PALYERS, NONE OF THEM PLAYED AT THE LAST FRENCH LEAGUE GAME AGAINST MARSEIG

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! YOU HEARD IT FIRST FROM

Ace2007

so what u guys reckon do this accumulator - 4/1


1 Reggina v Inter Milan
Coppa Italia Matches, Wednesday 19th December 2007, 19:30
Inter Milan @ 8 - 15



2 Bayern Munich v Aris
UEFA Cup Matches, Wednesday 19th December 2007, 19:45
Bayern Munich @ 2 - 9



3 Panionios v Bordeaux
UEFA Cup Matches, Wednesday 19th December 2007, 19:45
Panionios @ 8 - 13



4 Real Union v Valencia
Spanish Cup Matches, Wednesday 19th December 2007, 20:30
Valencia @ 8 - 15


Can anyone tell me what are real union any good? and would valencia be playing a full team or what...

Both Bayern and Panionios have to win to go through and both are at home, while inter in top and the other team have lost last 2 matches are are 2nd last in the league. its just the valencia game that i reckon could be iffy...

Ace2007

Inter Milan 8/15
Bayern Munich 2/7
Galatasaray 1/4
Braga 1/3
Roma EVS

works out at about 13/2

IrishMike

Bayern Munich v Aris
19th of December 2007 7:45pm
Win-Draw-Win
Bayern Munich @ 2 - 9
Sporting Braga v Crvena Zvezda
19th of December 2007 7:45pm
Win-Draw-Win
Sporting Braga @ 3 - 10
Toulouse v Spartak Moscow

Double Chance
Spartak Moscow And Draw @ 1 - 2
Panionios v Bordeaux
19th of December 2007 7:45pm
Double Chance
Bordeaux And Draw @ 11 - 10

€5 @ 5-1

Thats my accumulator
Avoiding Carling cup as i actually want to watch the games

IrishMike

This is one of the biggest games in the history of Panionios and they hope they can make it to the next stage against an indifferent and already qualified opponent.


PANIONIOS

Panionios broke a 28 year lasting tradition when they beat Panathinaikos 1-0 at their home ground during the weekend. The morale in the team is as high as it can get and really strong home support is expected tonight. For Panionios only victory will 100% secure qualification. Coach Ewald Lienen won yesterday the Best Manager award for 2007 from the Greek Footballers Union, as a recognition to the excellent work he is putting through in the squad.

There are no significant injuries or suspensions for Panionios and they will fight fiercely to kick out Galatasaray, having an addidional motive as the turkish side captured a totally undeserved and much helped from the referee win at Athens.

BORDEAUX

Bordeaux are one of the 4 sides with a perfect until now record in the group stage of the uefa cup and have already secured the top spot of the group. On Sunday night they fought back from 0-2 down at home against Marseille to get a 2-2 draw.

Bordeaux coach Laurent Blanc stated that this game is a good chance for him to rest players that are tired by consecutive games. Unfortunately i can't name the players that will not feature today.


VERDICT

Everything here points to a Panionios win : Bordeaux will not field main squad, they have no key players missing and Greece is always a hard place to get results. Plus Panionios have a good squad. Maybe they haven't yet performed at their best in domestic competition (i rate them as a top 5 club this season) but this is one of the most important matches in the history of the club.<br />

However, for prices of 1.6 that are available, i won't go crazy on that bet as there is always a chance that in such games where the reserves play for the bigger team a new star suddenly rises. Also, patient as Panionios will be, if the goal is not coming, stress may overwhelm the squad and the game is stuck on 0-0. Maybe this home win is a good pick to combine with another similar bet today to create a strong home win double.

Panionios@1.6+, normal stakes

Got that from goonersguide.
Might have been a little hastly in my backing of bordeaux not to lose.

:cool:

It's been a very good month for me so far!

redfan

would you guys think inter milan will put out a 1st team?

jameshayes

I just put a fair few quid on Chelski -v- pool on more than 1.5 goals. I think that was the worst mistake I have made in a long long time - i dont know why i done it.

mike65

Not so stupid I think, Liverpool cup ties tend to be goal-fests if not always for the right reasons.

Mike.
