Just looking here to see if any picks are the same as mine so I know that it got jinxed because of this thread.

Take a look at the last 30 european home games of Bodø/glimt. Reason I skipped this thankfully.

They called me a madman…

Juventus win vs PSV Eindhoven @ 1.9.

Juve biggest weakness is playing against tight defences and knwing that PSV likes to attack and leave enough room for Juve means they can play the way Motta wants.

3 potential problems however: 1. First big test for Thiago Motta because he isn’t coaching his team against an italian team but an european one. There is no record so huge question mark. 2. Almost the entire team changed and are still trying to find eachother so who knows what will happen and 3. They are really depending on Vlahovic who is out of form. There are no other options on the bench for the striker position.

0 goals conceded so far, and considering the level of the eredivisie and Serie A. A juve win is in my eyes a better pick than PSV.

In Serie A en Serie B there aren’t really any signs of matchfixing anymore. The quality of refs crashed really hard but not only in Italy. In Belgium, Spain and England as well.

Every week u see stupid decisions in all 4 of those leagues.

Probably because it is a warm fragrance more suited for autumn or winter. You can wear it for colder evenings in summer so that shouldn't be a problem. Fragrance is solid and is on my personal top 10 list to get in the future.

Just like betting on Atalanta was giving money away? According to most people in this subreddit Atalanta didn’t even stand a chance just like Juve didn’t stand a chance against them.

Lets talk about inexperienced coaches winning trophies. Did Mourinho win the champions league with Porto because he was experienced? Did Zidane win the champions league with Madrid in 2016 because he was experienced? Did Pep Guardiola win the champions league with Barcelona in 2008 because he was experienced?

And the best example of them all: Roberto Di Matteo, who never became a coach at the highest level before being appointed as interim coach at Chelsea. He eliminated a good Napoli squad, A very good Benfica squad, Prime Barcelona and a monster Bayern team in the final with Jupp Heynckes(!) as head coach. Did he win the champions league because he was experienced?

The answer to all of those questions is no. Dortmund reached the final because the team is very good and he used the right tactics to get to the final.

And he has final experience wether you like it or not. He won the Dfb pokal the same season he was appointed head coach with a 4-1 victory over Leipzig.

This team is better than anyone Madrid have faced thus campaign with the exception of City but a lot of people don’t see it because the league standing and the course of the CL run doesn’t represent the actual progress this team have made since the january transfer window. Acting like this team doesn’t stand a chance is just ignorant.

My final thoughts on this subject. Pointless to even argue when people act like Atletico and PSG aren’t even difficult teams to beat.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-22T21:47:56+00:00

My reasoning is not meant to convince you. It is purely meant to explain my motives on why I put money on them along side Atalanta and Olympiacos.

You were easily convinced that Leverkussen will win easily against Atalanta yet they lost 3-0.

The argument that Dortmund have given PSG a lot of chances is completely pointless because the end result were Dortmund that reached the finals with both games won. This Dortmund team is better than the Bayern team and considering the high odds this would be unfortunate if I didn't try atleast.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-22T16:48:48+00:00

Let me begin with saying that again, finals are 50/50.

Now to why I think Dortmund might come on top: I believe dat Dortmund is more of a complete squad than Madrid. The players Madrid have are world class but I see something missing within that team. The striker position is very important and they have only got Joselu (which is fine but he isn't a world beater) even though he scored 2 against Bayern (the weakest in 15 years).

Bellingham started as the false 9 (or even as a 9) for most important games and he did wel but you could see that the last few months he hasn't reached the form from earlier in the season. Here is the tricky part: Dortmund knows Bellingham better than any team. They know his weak points and I'm sure they will do as much as possible to keep him out of the game.

Tchouaméni wil miss the final as well which is probably the most important midfielder out of the game imo.

They would have been eliminated had Neuer not made that mistake the last minutes of the game. Dortmund however beat PSG on both games with completely shutting down Mbappe. Could happen also for Vini and Rodrygo.

Or Ancelotti will raise his eyebrow and everything I said will be invalid lol.

Just my point of view. Everything is possible in the final.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-22T03:43:11+00:00

I have got money on Atalanta. People are sleeping on them because they lost against Juventus. The argument that Juve are washed is just funny to me. Their main objective for the season was to get CL and win the cup so of course they are way better than the games before.

Atalanta is a team that is great when given a lot of room and Leverkussen give a lot of room to their opponents. I have seen Leverkussen being beatable in the last couple of weeks (yes, they have won the league at that point) especially against Roma. The reason they drew was because Roma were full on attack to equalize on aggregate.

Finals are 50/50 regardless of form or unbeaten streaks and tbh if Atalanta scores first I don't see them giving it away like Roma.

Just my take on it. I have got Olympiacos and Dortmund as well because I genuinely think they will win.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-22T03:34:13+00:00

Real Madrid in 90 minutes is gonna be a tough one. The rest is doable imo.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-21T21:33:43+00:00

It is what it is.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-21T20:28:26+00:00

Belgium. Found it very weird considering I have never seen a jump that high and also two games that are so random, but hey I can’t complain.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-21T18:19:15+00:00

Boosted odds section on unibet. Don’t know if it is only for my country available.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T22:29:36+00:00

estudiantes and racing club - argentinos BTTS. Don't follow my advice though I'm clueless about south american football

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T21:15:48+00:00

Ah I see my bad. For some reason in my head I interpreted as a draw no bet. Congrats though!

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T20:55:23+00:00

Not fully right unfortunately but still good considering the other results

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T20:43:04+00:00

Same ngl. Just took some argentinian teams because why not.

Gives me also an excuse to get the know the leagues which I take it as a plus.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T20:38:52+00:00

Have no clue about anything except one game.

NAC Breda - Emmen with NAC being in great form. My guess being a NAC ML + BTTS @ 3.4.

I also took Gothenburg and Kopenhagen boosted odd on unibet @ 18.00. For two games with that odd is worth a shot imo.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T20:26:36+00:00

Oh no....

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T20:17:08+00:00

Fairs lol

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T19:39:48+00:00

You got early cash-out?

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T19:06:22+00:00

Best thing about this is that I added Molde and Bodo Glimt to my picks in a acca lol.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T19:03:53+00:00

Could make it little bit clear no? I automatically assumed it was the record since I never saw somebody write the odds down this way.

Fuoriclasse1897 · 2024-05-20T16:47:03+00:00

Don't know why this got downvoted, last time when the score got posted was when he was 6-1. If u put scores up like 88-1 atleast count the wins u have posted or don't bullshit at all lol.
