Re: Italy - Serie A - 30 April - 2 May
Milan vs. Bologna - Under 3 goals - 1.85 - 4 points - WIN Lazio vs. Juventus - Under 2.5 - 1.95 - 2 points - WIN
Milan match went to plan with them wasting several good chances. Bologna came back the second half though and did better. Got bored watch the Lazio - Juventus match which is always good for the unders. Shame about Palermo. They got suckered by Parma and couldn't break through to maximise their possession. They are certainly a shout for the worst D in the league. Also a negligible loss on Cagliari. A couple points profit for the weekend which isn't great, but profit nonetheless.Parma vs. Palermo - Palermo (0) - 3.10 - 3 points - LOSS -
Re: Italy - Serie A - 30 April - 2 May Lazio seem to be getting more defensive with each and every post.:lol Muslera; Lichtsteiner, Biava, Dias, Garrido; Hernanes, Ledesma, Matuzem, Brocchi, Floccari, Zarate That will in all likelihood be a 4-3-1-2. Playing Hernanes and Brocchi on the wings would make little sense.

Re: Italy - Serie A - 30 April - 2 May Assuming that you mean under 2.5 it is only a slight movement. I don't think it is down to anything in particular. Chiellini has been confirmed to make it at CB, but he was always going to. Interestingly the papers are predicting a 4-4-2 from Lazio which strikes me as strange. Ledesma and Matuzalem/Brocchi will do the same as always - predominantly sit and pass the ball around. Hernanes is put on RM while Bresciano is at LM. Doesn't strike me as being to their strengths really. Hernanes is not a winger. Bresciano will fill in nicely and do a steady job. I guess they want to match Juventus in terms of formation. Zarate may benefit from being closer to Floccari. Doesn't change my thoughts on the match.

Re: Spain - La Liga - 30 April - 2 May
Great pick mate. Must have been sweet to see that penalty hit the back of the net on 82 mins. Nice one.Event Real Sociedad vs BArcelona Selection Real Sociedad Strength 5/10 Date 30/04/2011 Bookmaker/Price Ladbrokes @ 7.50 Reasoning Sociedad is on 12`th place and Barca first in the league. Barca has a comfortable 8 point lead while Real is only 3 points over relegation places coz of their poor run in the second part of the season. Real has 9-1-6 at home and have been quite unpredictable for lower league teams but better teams have known how to handle them. They are missing some points and will not go down easily if Barca takes them lightly. And with the return CL match ahead they might just do that. Some 5 B team players are expected to go on a trip with a chance to play. Iniesta will probably not play as well as Messi who is the main goalscoring machine with Pedro and Villa being in such poor form. They are also missing Abidal, Maxwell, Adriano, Bojan. Real is mising Labaka, De la Bella, Sarpong, J.Llorente, Agirretxe so also have problems. Desire alone could make the difference. -
Re: Italy - Serie A - 30 April - 2 May The Lecce match was a similar situation as you mention VH. One more for me this weekend: Parma vs. Palermo Parma will be feeling pretty unfortunate as they have won two great matches yet are still only 3 points above the drop. They've shown a far better attitude under their new manager and look as though they could survive. Zaccardo (their best defender) is suspended, Angelo, Palladino are out injured while Amauri is doubtful. Not sure whether he'll make it but he has been a vital player of late. Palermo miss Pinilla and Miccoli who are both important players. The former has been playing very well of late. Their attacking riches are still evident with Hernandez supported by Pastore and Illicic. They too have played very well since Delio Rossi has returned and they have feint hopes of EL qualification. They have their first-choice back four are available but that is by no means assuring with this team. I think there will be goals in this match and can see both sides duke it out. Parma have shown attacking intent recently and Palermo are adept at counter-attacking. Should be a pretty nice match and I think Palermo can be taken on the DNB line here: Palermo (0) - 3.10 - 3 points - Bet365

Re: UEFA Champions League > Real Madrid v Barcelona > Wednesday 27 April I saw an interesting stat this morning on Revista (by chance). In terms of minutes on the pitch for each team, the top 5 (maybe 6) players for Barca have played an average of 300 minutes more than their opposites have for Madrid. Probably not decisive, but it adds weight to those who are saying this Barca team are beginning to wain physically. I don't like the look of that Barca back line - if indeed that is what it will be. Couldn't Mascherano play RB though? That may be a little bit safer. I'm favouring JM to do another number tonight, but I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the chess match with no money involved.

Re: Italy - Serie A - 30 April - 2 May I've taken what I am interested in early as I may not be back later in the week. I have managed to find a couple of things that interest me. Milan vs. Bologna Milan can more or less affirm themselves as champions with a win in this match. Given Bologna's form that is looking almost certain. Bologna have rolled over for the last 4 matches given their perceived safety. Malesani oversaw a similar slide that saw his Chievo team relegated a few years ago. He has said it is purely motivational and they will be working to rectify it in training. They are now only 5 points ahead of the drop and while relegation is still improbable, their safety is not certain. They have matches against Parma and Bari from which to grab points but I'm hoping they show more steel than in recent weeks. They have more or less their full-stength team with only Garics and Perez as notable absentees. They'll play 4-3-1-2 and hope to stifle Milan as best they can and hope for the odd opportunity. Milan were underwhelming against Brescia. The concerns over a Robinho/Cassano attack came true and they failed to dispatch their chances. They are built on a rock solid foundation and don't expect Bologna to trouble them in any way - despite MvB suspended. Gattuso - Pirlo - Seedorf is expected but maybe Flamini instead of Dorf. I wouldn't be surprised to see the same relative 'struggle' to freely score in this match. Bologna will play in their own half and I'm hoping they give it a good crack. Under 3 goals - 1.85 - 4 points - Bet365 Under 2.5 goals is 2.35 at the moment which was tempting, but I took full cover on the 3 goals instead. Lazio vs. Juventus Interesting clash here. Lazio have been dominant at home and that has been based on a rock solid D. They have played quite consistently with 2-ish defensive minded midfielders and that wont change. In fact it is expected that there will be 3 of them (Matuzalem, Brocchi, Ladesma). This is driven by Mauri's absence. 4-3-1-2 will mean a solid foudnation allowing Hernanes, Zarate and Floccari absolute freedom to do whatever. It's possible that one of the two CM's could drop out with Gonzales joining Hernanes and Zarate behind Floccari (4-2-3-1). There isn't that much difference in two - one is slightly more defensive. A trend I have sometimes noticed with Lazio is that their clear division i.e. 'you lot defend, you lot attack' can leave them short of numbers going forward and they rely on indivual magic ala Zarate last week. Juventus will play same old 4-4-2. Not sure how much joy they will get out of this Lazio given their D game. Krasic, Del Piero, Aquilani blow hot and cold and Lazio are a mean team - generally. In short I can see Juventus struggling to crack Lazio and I'm hoping to see Lazio a bit thin going forward. Juventus have risen time and again to the 'big' matches but Lazio don't want to lose this match. A point is acceptable but a hard fought win is desired. I favour the home side, but I'm on unders. Under 2.5 - 1.95 - 2 points - Bet365 Elsewhere - I'm not going to write it up as such because there are many different views taken on this match (Catania vs. Cagliari). Regardless of any iffy 'motivational' factors I think Catania are very short. Yes they are in a dog fight and in theory are the only team that want to win the match - as Cagliari are in no mans land. They have been for ages and have had mixed results for a while. They do score goals and Cossu - Lazzari - Aqua will always create chances against lower sides. Catania will still have to come and win, providing Cagliari don't actually let them. I'm nibbling on - Cagliari double chance - 3.20 - Bet365

Re: Italy - Serie A - 30 April - 2 May Very little that tempts me regarding 1X2 or even Asian handicaps. I'll have to have a snoop later in the week. Will probably not be much action though.
