2 week contest Mlb sides/total and nba sides total


if you beat me ill send $100 to your betislands account via western union.

who's ready to get their asses kicked ?

Some sweet action to be expected on the 2nd of March. I am really interested on placing a few bets. So far i'm thinking:
Chelsea vs West Brom - Chelsea win and over 2.5 total goals.
Swansea vs Newcastle - Newcastle win and under 2.5.
Any thoughts on this, guys?

Lorient - Brest

4/6 last Lorient's games went Over 2,5 goals , and 3/6 when it comes to Brest. But that's not the main thing I chose this bet. Lorient comes into this game without 7 first team players which includes main goalkeeper Audard and all four standard defenders (Bourillon, Baca, Mareque i Kone). Home team manager therefore must rotate whole defense and send in whole another team which never before played together. Situation in away team isn't much better. Brest misses four key players and three of those are defenders (Martial, Mendy, Bayasse). Both teams are complete in the offensive part so i expect a lot of goals here.

Tip: Over 2,5
Odds: 2.10
Best of luck guys

From now on all my picks will be posted here on this thread.

Friendlies are often hard to predict, but the squad that Genoa brought into the game against Carrarese (lower leagues) are probably to hard to handle for the hosts. And even if i do believe that there will be many rotations or changes, there are still to much experienced players for minows from Carraro to overcome.

Team for this friendly:

PORTIERI: Frey, Stillo, Zima

DIFENSORI: Antonelli, Bovo, Canini, Mesto, Moretti, Polenta, Tomovic, Velazquez

CENTROCAMPISTI: Bertolacci, Biondini, Merkel, Moro Alhassan, Rossi, Seymour, Tozser

ATTACCANTI: Buongiorno, Gilardino, Jankovic, Olivera, Said

All in all, handicap seems just to low in this case as i have imagined -1 for Genoa against that kind of opponent. Almost all the "strong players " are there and Genoa should win this

anything going on with american sports?

I think, as many others, that Germany and Holland will be the one qualifying from this group, and as I have mentioned before I think Portugal and Denmark have the same class and will battle for third place. However, that Denmark is as good as Portugal won't help them here, since Holland are even better. Holland have great goal scorers in Van Persie, Huntelaar and so on and they have got their attacking game going, winning 6-0 against Northern Ireland and 2-0 against Slovakia.

Denmark are good, I need to point that out, and they might have a chance for spoling the party for Holland, and that's the reason I won't go heavy stake on Holland win. Because this might be a draw, I actually think Denmark are able to, if they get their game going. Then why this bet? Reason:

I see this game going either Denmark shocking and being able to get a draw, O R, Holland will get their game going early and get an early goal and playing as the great team they are. I don't think tight 1-0 is what we expect. Therefore I'm going medium stake on high odds for Holland because it's very realistic that they win both halves. I mean, they beat Slovakia by only 2-0 but still they won both halves.

Holland also know this is a must win to compete with Germany.

I see value in these odds.

Anyone else love Spain -125 V Italy?

Denmark to face Portugal in second leg of Euro 2012. Denmark won their first match against Holland and Portugal lost against Germany.

Portugal played well against the Germans, had a couple of great chances but lost in the end. Denmark on the other side scored a goal from two chances and were saved many times against the Dutch.

IMO, Portugal is a favorite here, Denmark will be under pressure, only a win guarantees them a safe passage, but can they attack, can they defend? They will be confused, Portugal on the other hand has only attacking motives and than their faith will be played against the Dutch in the third round.

Hey, guys. I may know many of you from the other forum across the street. Hollar at me if you remember. After consistently posting winners for a year and a half at the other forum, they decided they were done with a winning "non-pro." That place is a mess. Anyways, here is my play for today.

Mets/Phillies Under 8.5

BOL boys.

Today in Group C will take place the matches from the second stage . In first the match Italy receives the replica of Croatia. Italy has made a good game against Spain managed to finish tied 1-1. It was a nice game with many goal opportunities, especially from Spain in the final match. To not be at hand of the other results Italy should win today to be sure of qualification in next phase. But Italy, in recent history, has never won, either officially or in friendly match Croatia. On the other hand Croatia started with a clear victory 3-1 against Ireland (2 goals scored by Mandzukic ), perhaps the weakest team of the tournament. For now I do not think will be major changes in the first 11 and probably East - Europeans will settle for a draw. In first game I saw a Mandzukic in great shape, and I expect today to make another good game and to score a goal.

Second quarterfinal of Euro 2012 that could go either way will be played today between England and Italy in Ukraine and might be the first match that could go into extra time or even penalties because there isn't any significant difference between the two sides.
Still at this moment I rate a better side England and see them to advance in the next round because their new manager has managed to do what last one didn't, namely to make his team to play as a team and make the players put a smile on their face and don't be constantly under pressure of making something bad and let down one more time the team.
Agree Italy is not a bad team but has at this moment more weaker spots then England and although is seen by the bookie as small favorite I expect Rooney and Gerrard to help their team to reach in the semifinals.

This is an international friendly featuring Spain and China.

Not long now to the Euro's and this is Spains final warm up game. They were a little slow out of the blocks against South Korea in the last game and were level at half time. Beginning of the second half Spain upped the teampo and prevailed 4-1.

South Korea although weak are well organized and drilled. China on the other hand are on the decline. China recent form is good, but all of their games have been against weaker opposition. Another thing in Spains favor is China haven't played a competitive game since february. They have also had to travel half way around the world so they will be tired.

I fancy Spain to win by 3 clear goals so I have take the -2 handicap.
