Ok lets start this up the night before, maybe we can catch the overnight lines and include early soccer and tennis this way.


Pick 1 Soccer Champions League 2:45pm EST

Stuttgart vs Barcelona Under 2.5

Under 2.75 is the line, picked the 2.5 for most with American books. After Christian Gross took over Stuttgart they have played much more organized and the results have come (won 6 of last 8). They know they can't play man to man to Barcelona so the focus on this match is defense. Bara news say Xavi and a couple more won't play because of injury but nah, they'll be there and the team should be in full force. We are hoping the away from home setting will slow down Bara's pace. And after all it is a CL 1st leg match and 2.75 is always big. U2.5 should get you a big + price.

Pick 2 Soccer Copa Libertadores 6:50pm EST

Internacional -1.5 vs Emelec

What can I say it is a Libertadores home match. Beira Rio stadium will be packed for the first time this year. Full team was rested and even a spot the in Final of the Gauchao state championship was sacrificed (lost 1-2 with the bench) for this Tuesday's match. It will be the debut of famed ex Boca Juniors 'Pato' Abboanzzieri in goal and that has the whole organization empolgada. Emelec is an Ecuadorian team, very organize but will get overwhelmed away from home.
 
Woke up feeling just as bad as when I went to bed! Angry in me is gone. Don't know soccer much so should help everyone here out. Haven't done it in years but was ready to break something downstairs. I'm very competitive I guess. TG I have calm down somewhat.

MrsMonkey did make a funny doing her Kelly Preston impression in Jerry Maguire with the L across the forehead! Good luck to you guys and I know my -2.6 units with this thing will come down today:yes:
 
Man my price is so far different from the prices you guys are getting....the best I can get is -103 for that under 2.5. Is there any value in it at that number?

Amby I think -103 is for the under 2.75 (2.5 and 3.0) whereby half your stake goes on U2.5 and half on U3.0

Odds available for the under 2.5 (might be an alternative line at some books) at US friendly books are:

BetPhoenix +125
Bodog +125
BetUS +125
5Dimes +121
The Greek +120

-103 for U2.75 is equivalent in terms of value to these.
-103 for U2.5 would not be playable.

Ahhh ok....I found some at +125. I looked really quick and you guys were right...
 
Don't know soccer, but weather.com calls for light rain in Stuttgart tonight? From you guys experience, how does weather played into soccer matches or doesn't? Thanks!

Weather can be a major factor. yes.
Light rain, tends to make the playing surface very slick. As long as the pitch doesnt cut up it would not affect an over/under bet too much.
It does tend to favour the more skillful players (which Barcelona have in abundance).
