zenit at 10-11 to beat a misfiring az side in russia and aek athens at 6-4 to beat the swedes elfsborg on a synthetic surface are my two bets so far

[Winrew]

Nothing jumps out at me but i`ll probably go with Villarreal against Fiorentina and Helsingborg vs Panionios.

Villarreal 10/11 with Betdirect btw...

[Martens]

everton v larissa

i very well understand that betting population will use this match as combo material

thats my initial thought too, however, is important to see the starting line up of everton,team plays the so called physical game,coz of lacking impressive technical skills,if coach decide to rotate his squad, then automatically this is NO BET

greek teams are playing more and more the "italian" soccer, in addition they are competitive in the physical game, everton at full strength is banker, but i doupt about this.....just wait to see the starting line up

[kompressaur]

Whats the word on the street fellas regarding these games later today? you know i know sod all about hte games but i know that some of you do. just a load of shite fixtures?

[allthethings]

UEFA Cup
Soccer - Bordeaux/Galatasaray - total Over 2 (-139)
for the regulation time held on Oct 25 at 12:00pm [pending]

UEFA Cup
Soccer - Basel/Rennes - total Over 2½ (+101)
for the regulation time held on Oct 25 at 1:45pm [pending]


Also was leaning to overs in Tottenham and Brann Bergen, but will probably just stick to these two.

Taking overs in two games with French teams...something I noticed last year was that the French teams scored many more overs in European competition than in their league play. But in these two cases, Rennes and Bordeaux have both shown the ability to score and concede, and in Basel and Galatasaray they play opponents that have been in many high-scoring Cup games over the years, always attacking. Over 2 for any Cup game with Galatasaray is especially generous onsidering their past record...I'm thinking of the CL game at Liverpool, 3-2 final, fought to the death.

Elfsborg Boras IF - Athens AEK 2.66 3.09 2.35 25.10.2007 - 20.00

i heard that game will be played on synthetic ground
seems lie Aek played with full squad i would go with high stakes for the away win.
Elfsborh has missing some important player, i think this is a difficult game but i think that aek is better team.
IF Elfsborg Boras are inconsistant and i dont see them wining at home
Elfsborg just loosed to Örebro at home in their last match in allsvenskan
rivaldo could miss this game but still think that hard for poor elfsborg to make a victory in home , they got bad mentality situation .
AEK scored 11 goals in league, none conceded this should a good chance for AEK ...

[junior98]

Hamburg , Aek , Zenit , Munchen , ATM tonite with a high stake GL all

cracking Stuff ATT and Junior. Much appreciated. I think i'll just go and have all 3 of them as they sound solid enough to me. I'd love you to post all your over bets on a TDP Blog ATT but obviously thats up to you. I reckon you must do ok. You can't have a blog Junior as we need you on the forums

Interesting about the French stats ATT. To me that game screamed under goals truth be told. Im unsure. I dontknow if i could trust a french team to play a turkish team and very much to happen. Just read on and you seem to know more about it than me. Im getting 6/5 on the overs and that sounds fair. good luck to us ATT. 19/20 on the Rennes game. I'll have them all and i like the look of the 11/8 on AEK Junior. Usually i wouldnt trust a Greek team on the road but i dont entirely have faith in less than spectacular Swedish r Norwegian teams. Suppose the unders is alsways a call on these games but i'll take-

1 AEK Athens @ 11/8
2 Over 2.5 @ 6/5 (Bordeaux)
2pts double

in a wee double for now. Anyone else got any good bets for today? I just found a large sum of money in my sportsbook account. I better go invesigate. I think i just forgot about it from last weekend as ive been just playing poker with the same money. I note bromsgrove is on AEK too. Good luck chaps

[kompressaur]

oh and i'll take your wee accy in interest stakes too Junior. good luck mate

Leverkusen to beat Toulouse in Germany - this will be my strongest bet for tonight. Interwetten offers 1.75 for home win and this is huge price in my eyes.
I had the opportunity (or the misfortune) to watch Toulouse in both games against CSKA Sofia, they were really poor and got extremely lucky to qualify -first game in France ended 0:0, CSKA was the better team, in the second game both teams played shite, CSKA took the lead and Toulouse equalized in 96th minute against 10-men-left home team.
French team is physically well prepared, but that won't be great advantage against the Germans. In attack they rely mainly on the Swedish striker Elmander, who can easily be neutralized.
Leverkusen are being pretty solid at home and they have some ambitions in the UEFA cup for sure.
So I don't think Toulouse have any chances at Beiarena tonight and the price is quite generous.
Leverkusen 7/10

[kompressaur]

1.57 for me Engineer so im gonna have to leave it im afraid although youve got me totally convinced. The bookies are all over the place on this game with a 92% book Engineer although theyre well known for their small errors like so. I like a game where the bookies have no idea and someone does. i might take some of the 8/11 in William Hill when i pop into town in about 10 minutes

[engineer]

Good luck, Komp, have a nice time in town

Also to add my treble for the UEFA cup:
Leverkusen + Bayern Munich + Panathinaikos @2.5/1 - stake 2/10

I already placed it, but I'll be interested in Serbian and Greek punter's opinion about Zvezda's and Pana's chances.

Also what about Bolton, can they step back on track against Braga? Braga (+0.75) looks a nice bet to me.

Hi, I am from Serbia and have couple of things to say about Crvena Zvezda-Bayern Munchen match. First of all bayern will miss 4 regular players (Ribery, Van Buyten, Toni and Demichelis) but they still have pretty much strong squad even without them. Second of all Crvena Zvezda players and fans live for this kind of games, they are pretty shitty team this year and they score pretty hard even against lousy teams, they have Jestrovic upfront, and he is totally out of form so only winger Koroman could score (but I doubt), their defence is very strong with Gueye and Tutoric as DC, Basta as DR and Andjelkovic as DL(probably the weakest part of the team). Crvena Zvezda plays 4-5-1 formation with two defensive midfielders (Castillo and Lucas) and Molina (who has improved lately) is the playmaker of the team. The fans will be so loud all 90min that I doubt that players will be able to comunicate between each other :-) I expect 55.000 fans tonight and u must admit that is a quite a singing potential. So, all in all, I see this game as a under and (even I am not a fan of Crvena Zvezda) I wouldn't bet against them on this kind of matches.

I must to disagree with you mate.Toulouse are shit anyway ,but it will easy for they to paly away first game in this phase and I expect they to play for a draw and will catch it, very poor defence of Levercusen. draw for me 4/10
