KautoStar666 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October Napoli 10/11 (bet365) Borrusia Dortmund 4/6 (bet365). These 2 sides at home look the plays for Thursday... Liverpool without Gerrard and Torres and in all sorts of problems ON the field, add to the fact that Roy Hodgson just cant win away from home and i can see a Napoli win here,who themselves are a very good side with plentyof attacking threat! Dortmund are flying in the Bundesliga so far this season and at home they are a very strong outfit. Plenty of players who are capable of doing damage to a PSG side that have been off the radar for years in Europe. Double @ 2/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultravires Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October Napoli are taking this match relatively seriously - far more so than Liverpool right now. However Mazzari has said that the league remains their primary objective. Johnson, Agger,Kuyt, Gerrard, Torres are almost certain to all miss out. Further rumours say that Meireles could as well. A Lucas/Poulson midfield isn't pretty in any one's books. Napoli have another very big match on Monday where they host Milan. Of the two I think that is probably considered slightly more important - though it is a few days away. I can't find any solid news on potential Napoli team news and it is a little hard to speculate. Right now they have momentum and will want to keep it so I think they will probably name a strong 11 with 1 or 2 changes. Lack of foresight will probably cost me in this match as at anything near 2.2 Napoli would have been well worth taking. Not sure I can risk taking them at 1.85-ish (Bet365) when a draw would be happily taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jr23 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October Zenit - Hajduk Split Home team is simply unstoppable now under Spalletti and looking strong for Russian PL title and advancing in Europa League..I believe even a close 2nd place from Croatia cant stop them tomorrow..Kershakov has scored alot lately and I didnt find any offers on him as the "anytime or first scorer" on Unibet, but nevertheless I will choose -1.5 # 1.826 @ Pinnacle. Atletico - Rosenborg Huge difference in quality. Atletico is strong home , just won against Getafe in LaLiga with many bench players and Rosenborg simply suck in Europe when it matters. Copenhagen 1-0 loss and Bayer 4-0 away loss proves it. Atletico welcomes back Forlan, but Aguero might still be out in this one, home team are bottom of the group, but Rosenborg have won just once in 8 visits. Atletico needs points and I dont see any chance of even getting a draw for the away side. Take -1.5 # 2.11 @ Pinnacle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am IM Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October I see good value on Young Boys against Odense. The Swiss are pretty tough at home, already beating Tottenham and Getafe this season in Europe. Their homeground is artificial grass, so that helps them too. Odense is a bit of a mess at the moment. They started the domestic season terribly, and sacked sports director and manager after that. Last weekend they lost 5-0 to Fc Kobenhavn. In Europe League they sit in the bottom of the group with no points. 1.80 @Expekt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erde Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October Besiktas - Porto Hi everybody .. i will tell e.thing all of you the side of besiktas.. İ am the fan of Besiktas.. This year Besiktas is one of the best team of turkey, with the stars, Quaresma and Guti. Besisktas wants play at least Quarter Final in ueafe cup and they have big chance to realize this aim. Besiktas squad is very ambitios style game of play and i d like to tell you that besiktas will win porto on thursday night... But for 1 week, we had such problems ; on thursday night: (these are definite) .. Most important part of defense Matteo Ferrai (you can remember him from Roma) can not play. He is absence because of an injury... For the midfield, we have 2 important player Mehmet Aurelio (also plays in national turkish football team)and Guti is also absence because of an injury.. Guti is playin great football this year for the team and he is more importand according to Quaresma. He is managing all game from the midfield and doing this very well .. He will not play and this means thursday night Besiktas will have really big trouble on offensive play... We watch short pass traffic but the ball wont be delivered to forwards.. and Quaresma... He is great and wonderful what ever you say.. tomorrow he wants to play but if it desnt be surprise he will also not play thursay night .. Even if he plays, it wont be much more than 45 mins .. This problems makes Besiktas just an ordinary team. midfielder Rodrigo Tabata and forward Bobo will be potential threat for scoring... Ernst and Fink will be importand players for midfield tommorow to stop Porto's attack..tommorow, absolutely i want Besiktas to win over Porto .. But honestly, it looks quite imposbile .. İ dont know e.thing about porto side but tommorow they will definitly score and probabaly win .. İ excpet definsive style play of Besiktas... Not: .. Besiktas plays strange football when they play with big teams in home games .. Besiktas 2-1 liverpool / Besiktas 2-1 Marseilla / Besiktas 3-1 PSG / Besiktas 3-0 Barcelona .. this is the single thing to think about what can Besiktas do tommorow .. i advise .. under 2,5 and then porto wins ..

Jamaican Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October 50000 tickets for a sold out San Paolo stadium of Napoli. After many years, a great Europian team is visiting. Napoli is coming out of two draws with Utrecht and Stuea Bucharest, and needs victory in this third round. A fearsome trio is leading the attack line: Hamsik, Lavezzi, and Cavani. Liverpool is passing a bad moment, and seems in double crisis, in Premier league, and with ownership. Out are Gerrard, Torres, Kuyt, Agger, and Johnson. These teams are walking in different direction. One of my local bookie has still Napoli @ 2.0, not for long, I guess. I'm thinking about a huge bet, however Liverpool is a heavy name, and not sure about this yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odense has a score of W0-D0-L2 goals scored 2 goals conceded four lost the first game played outside the home with the score 1-2 against Getafe and lost the second game at home with the score 1-2 against Stuttgart. Preview: Young Boys: injured: Dudar and Lingani; in doubt: Jemal. Odense: absent: Jonas Troest (striker), Roy Carroll (first door). An interesting match with many goals and I think seeing two teams that make the game better offensive weapon. Odense comes to this game with the pieces for a moral defeat in the league against the Copenhagen remedied with a score of 5-0 over the loss of form and absences.

Toronto_Mike Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October I don't understand any sort of logic with people betting on Liverpool. This whole season has been a fraud, it seems the only excuse to wager on Liverpool is because "oh that is value because they are Liverpool" Lets just come to terms...Liverpool are terrible. It's one thing when you see Chelsea being priced at 4ish but it's another when Liverpool are. Time and time again people will continuously bet on Liverpool based on their name and time and time again Liverpool fails to deliver. At this current stage, Napoli is a far better playing team than Pool. What does Liverpool want more, EPL status or Europa glory? For pete sakes they got to start figuring out what they want to do in the EPL. If people constantly want to take a dab on wagering on Liverpool just for the sake of "well sooner or later they'll win" so be it, but that is not logical at all to chase. Provide some strong valid reasons why Pool can actually muster anything out of this match. The value WAS on Napoli -0.25 when it first opened but now you have increased your risk with -0.5. Playing Liverpool ML is not value at all, if you want you can wait to take a stab at Pool +0.5 if the odds are decent enough but other than that so far what I'm seeing is an overreaction to a "Name" rather than to a team playing well.

Anyway, i'm also on Napoli tongiht, surprise surprise! They will have too much for a weak Liverpool side. Napoli are currently 4th in a decent Serie A while Liverpool are in the relagation zone and now down their best players for tonight.

ultravires Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October While I have missed Napoli I am going to bet on a match involving Juventus. It is true that I don't know much about Salzburg and they may not be in the best shape domestically. They also lost to Lech 2-0 in their last game in Europe. I don't watch them and know nothing beyond what stats can tell me, but this isn't the same Juventus that beat Lecce 4-0 - at least probably not. That Juventus had a starting midfield of: Krasic, Aquilani, Melo, Marchsio. Tonights Juventus will likely have a midfield of: Martinez, Sissoko, Marchisio, Pepe. This changes the strength of the team so much. Krasic has been their best player so far this season, and Aquilani will become their best player this season. Thonights midfield is the Juventus one of a month ago when everybody was complaining and results weren't being obtained. Marchisio/Sissoko means no creativity in CM. Martinez/Pepe are average wingers. The only threat creatively is Del Piero. A player capable of great things, but at 1.7 for the win - I'm willing to go against him. Motta, Bonnuci, Chiellini, De Ceglie is their standard D and has a strong CB partnership. The full-backs should be solid enough for this game tonight. This team has little going forward and if Del Piero isn't performing miracles then they will struggle to create. If Salzburg decide to have a go at home then they can cause Juve problems in defence - namely Motta and De Ceglie. Juventus at 1.7 need to be taken on I think. Salzburg win - 4.5 - 1 point Salzburg +0.75 - 1.95 - 4 points Both Bet365 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackcrow Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Re: UEFA Europa League > Thursday 21st October Zenit St Petersburg - Hajduk Split over 3.5 @ 2.52 pinnacle Zenit are the class team in this group and on the face of this game, should not have too it. They face a Hajduk side that does concede goals as they have lost 3-1 at AEK and Dinamo Bucharest, while also drawing 1-1 at Unirea Urzeceni in their last 3 away games in the EL. Hajduk though, have scored in each of their EL games this year and will go into this game with little to lose given that they are not expected to win. Also they will be given encouragement that AEK did manage to score twice, even though they lost 4-2 at Zenit, so like Hajduk to score at least once here while Zenit should be able to score at least a couple themselves Anderlecht - AEK Athens over 2.5 @ 2.09 pinnacle Anderlecht have yet to win a game in the EL, so the pressure is on them to win this game. Though they lost to Hajduk Split, and have also lost to Cercle Brugge and Standard Liege in their domestic league, all these games were on the road. At home they tend to play much better and expect them to lift. While their defence has struggled to keep a clean sheet in these recent games, they do tend to score at home, and can see them scoring against AEK, who have conceded in both of their recent EL games, beating Hajduk Split 3-1 at home and then losing 4-2 at Zenit St Petersburg. They too will like their chances of scoring, and with AEK also looking for the win, can see a few goals in this game Stuttgart @ 1.94 pinnacle Stuttgart have won both of their EL games, having beaten Odense 2-1 on the road. They will look to make it a hattrick of wins as they face Getafe who did beat Odense 2-1 at home before losing 2-0 at Young Boys. While Stuttgart's domestic forn is not that good, their EL form is much better, and with Getafe missing some players including a couple of defenders, like the home team to win again Young Boys @ 1.68 pinnacle Young Boys will be looking to continue their good home form where they have beaten Tottengam 3-2 and then beaten Getafe 2-0. Playing on an artificial pitch has given them an advantage and like them to make the most of this once again, as they face an Odense side that lost 2-1 at Getafe and then 2-1 at home to Stuttgart. With Odense likely to be without Carroll in goals, it gives a further advantage that they can score on his inexperienced replacement. Lille -1.5 @ 2.13 pinnacle Having lost 2-1 at home to Sporting Lisbon and then drawing 1-1 at Gent, Lille must win this game and their coach has called them out to go for it. Apart from their loss to Sporting, they have some good home form, and like them to be even more focused for this game. Levski on the other hand, do not travel well, as they did lose 5-0 at Sporting Lisbon. They have some injury concerns, with important players likely to be out which will weaken their side, so like Lille to bounce back from losing their first game in their domestic league with a win here Sporting Lisbon -1.5 @ 2.23 pinnacle Sporting Lisbon look good in this situation having beaten Levski Sofia 5-0 at home, and had beaten Lille 2-1 on the road prior to that. While Gent manaaged a 1-1 draw at home to Lille they did lose 3-2 at Levski Sofia, and they did lose their other away games, 1-0 at Feyenoord. Gent have lost their last 7 games on the road in European competition and like the attacking threat of Postiga up front, while Maniche anchors the midfield to beat Gent here Dinamo Zagreb - Club Brugge over 2.5 @ 2,06 pinnacle Dinamo had a very good start in their first EL group game with a 2-0 win over Villareal before losing 1-0 at PAOK. Club Brugge has scored and conceded in each of their 4 EL games this season, drawing 1-1 at home to PAOK before losing 2-1 at Villareal. While the home team should be favoured given that they have done well in both home games this year, they are a team that do become complacent when they are favoured, and like Club Brugge to give them some problems like Anderlecht did last year. Can see both teams scoring here, and with both teams needing a win to give themselves a better chance of progressing from this group, expect them to continue to go forward for the win Sheriff Tiraspol - BATE Borisov over 2.5 @ 2.22 pinnacle Both sides will be looking to win this game having performed well so far. Sheriff beat Dynamo Kiev 2-0 at home and then prior to that had lost 2-1 at AK Alkmaar. BATE Borisov have gone over in each of their 4 EL games, having scored at least 2 goals in each of them. They are coming off a 4-1 home win over AZ Alkmaar, and had a 2-2 draw at Dynamo Kiev prior to that, so expect them to continue their offensive burst, while Sheriff too will respond. Should be an open game with goals in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
