why not any two days this week instead of weekend only? since there will be 4 ATP+WTA tournaments this week which is equivalent to about 64 matches in Monday and Tuesday only....

I'm really joke of this competition, but since i'm not a quiter i will finish this game not minding the score.

Denver Broncos - Oakland Raiders 2 @ 2.95

Great start by Broncos (2-0), they were very impressive last week against Chargers (37-10).For this match they have 2 probably best players doubtfull and outcome of this match could depend on whether they will play or not.Of couse it's about the best rookie last year - RB Clinton Portis and great QB Jake Plummer who is said 90% not to play.We'll see about that, the same was said about Priest Holmes last night and you probably saw what happen...
About Raiders nation you probably know everything.They need to start wining in series, till now 1-1.In the first road game they suffered a revenge from Titans 25-20 for last year's conference final.They will miss excellent WR Jerry Porter.

Enköping v Orebro 3.15 3.20 2.10

This is a must win game for Enköping if they want play in Allsvenskan next year to and they are just 5 points to catch up to the "qualification spot for a chance to stay in Allsvenskan against a team from Superettan" (whatever it called?). But since they just dont know how to score and now they are facing Örebro, a team who hold 0 conceeded goals last 2 games and Enköping scored 0 goals last 2 games. Looking at situation, Enköping have the motivtaion to win this game more then Örebro needed it, but Enköping is out of all hopes and they just don't know how to win a match. To face a team like Örebro who like to play defensily on away matches, makes it harder to win for Enköping and I think most this gonna be a draw. Enköping need all points they can get to avoid relegation and I dont think they can beat Örebro who have been played well lately!

Enköping v Orebro :arrow: Enköping @3.15

Enkoping is at the bottom of the table, 5 points less then the first no-relegating play-off place. They must win this game in order to keep their small chances alive. They meet Orebro, a team that is eigth points behind the Uefa places and has already given up un European expectations.

I expect a hard fougth game in which motivation will be decisive.

Good luck!

Per · 22-09-03, 07:57

Wow, it's an intense betting on Enköping-Örebro here

Anyway, I'll take the away win @2,10

http://www.bettingadvice.com/showPre...php?idMenu=179

Also this away win has grown for me over the last few days, as Enköping has several players injured and their best defender over the season, Baskim Sopi, is doubtful.
Örebro also has several injuries but they are still good enough to break through Enköping who was really poor in their last game.

Likhovtseva E. v Schnyder P. 1 1.75

Schnyder has been the better HC player in their previous meetings with a 3-1 advantage however this year she has been quite ordinary and has only played at the US open in this part of the HC season, this match will be on carpet so i use the above as only a guide. Likhovtseva has put in a very good HC season with loses only to quite good players. It seems to me that Schnyder is simply collecting appearance fees this season by playing the rich tournaments due to her ranking, this is never a good sign.

pam · 22-09-03, 10:17

Ok, people but there are a few more matches played on monday.
So if anyone can give at least some comments about those games, it would be great!

Daneck · 22-09-03, 10:17

I love competitions with rules changed before its end...Nevermind...

for today:
Nuernberg- Greuther Fuerth OVER 2,5 goals @1,65

Both teams have presented attacking style so far so I expect both will score today. Defences are not impressive. Nuernberg are 11-9 goals and Fuerth even 13-10. I count on good performance of Polish player J.Krzynowek and his next goals for the Club

BgSoccerFan · 22-09-03, 11:12

There are 8 days to the end of the competition and I have 8 more picks to make. I don't like the fact that tahoma will allow everyone to make 2 pick in saturday and sunday because only the fastest who write their picks will give their best pick of the day. If someone tries to post his pick few hours after the topic is open I'm sure it will be flooded with pick already. So I will try to finish the competition without having to post 2 picks in saturday and sunday.

My pick for today is:

Belenenses - Guimaraes 1 @ 1.85

Last three seasons Belenenses always wins at home against Guimaraes. Belenenses are in very good form now as they smashed Amadora 4-0 two weeks ago, and last week they made 3-3 away at Benfica. Guimaraes on the other side is playing not very good when they are away and they lost their 2 away games. So I think that with home advantage Belenenses can win this game.

I agree with dragon. Although I don't like idea of changing rules, if they are to be changed, I believe that mid-week UEFA Cup games can be great ocasion for picks...

megapoxy · 22-09-03, 12:55

Today's pick comes from Finland and again it's a high odd's one in order to catch up with the rest...Jokerit FC v TPS H/T 1/1 @ 3.4 after yesterday's matches the homeside is not so far away from the relegating zone and they will do their best to get the 3 points of win in order to feel safer...Turku has no ambitions for the rest of the year and a loss won't mean much to them.

dragon · 22-09-03, 14:39

Kuznetsova vs Hantuchova @ 1.65

The Russian Kuznetsova is hand-picked by Navratilova because she has a good talent, nice strokes, and most importantly, great legwork. On the contrary, Hantuchova is scolded because of her thin body. Navratilova added that Hantuchova is more of a fashion model than a tennis player. Well, I agree with her. Hantuchova can't play anywhere near her best right now. She needs to bulk up a little. Until then, she will keep losing to medium_to_top players.

UnderOver1979 · 22-09-03, 15:03

I will try another risky bet today because I chose a difficult game, but I will explain the reasons for taking this bet.

Half Time 22 Sep 03 20:15 Home Draw Away
FC Nuernberg v Greuther Fürth 2.55 2.05 3.65

Nuerberg palys attacking football and scores easily. In their last match lead 3-1 away with Aue and finally managed only a draw 3-3 because of defensive problems. Although, today I believe will win. Plays home and away team loses many players and more important for my bet the goalkeaper. The second goalkeeper of team is also banned so I believe FC Nuernberg to lead to score and manage to win at HT. But it is a risky bet. Safer for this match I think is over 2.5 but I coud not get that.

I pick : FC Nuernberg HT @ 2.55

celt1 · 22-09-03, 16:42

My pick of the day is:

St Patricks-Derry City 1 @1.50

I am not an expert on Irish league,but from the stats I can see that home side is much better,without loss at home ground,while on the other side Derry has 4 draws and 1 loss in last 5 matches.

St Patricks has 1 draw and 4 wins in last 5 games.
So they are currently in better form than Derry.

In last 5 games at home St Patricks had 3 times clean sheet,while Derry concieded goals in every away game.

These are reasons why I am backing home side,although Derry has drew many times,I think there is low probability of draw here.

Weity · 22-09-03, 16:50

Germany - 2.Bundesliga

FC Nurnberg : Greuter Furth - 1 @ 1.9

Both teams are quite equal. At the moment Nurnberg has 8 points and Gr. Furth has 7. Nurnberg already played 2 games at home and they got 4 poitns from that. Gr. Furth played 2 away games and only got 1 draw. So they are both strong at home. And from that point of view I'll take home victory here.

tahoma · 22-09-03, 18:12

I have placed some money on FC Nürnberg - Greuther Fürth to finish with more than 2.5 goals. The price is 1.45 - actually very low, but >2.5 is a very probable results in my opinion. As argument, I will just publish the results of these teams' last 5 games:

Nürnberg:

Karlsruhe - Nürnberg 2-3
Nürnberg - Burghausen 2-0
Mainz - Nürnberg 2-1
Nürnberg - Cottbus 2-2
Erzgebirge - Nürnberg 3-3

Fürth:

Fürth - Unterhaching 2-4
Regensburg - Fürth 0-0
Fürth - Trier 4-2
Union - Fürth 3-0
Fürth - Aachen 7-1

Why shouldn't it?

22-09-03, 21:15

Because Daneck picked the over for Nurnberg before you...

tahoma · 22-09-03, 21:41

Oh!

ops:

Yes, I guess I'm lucky then...

zik013 · 22-09-03, 21:46

Miranda I. v Ascione T.

0:2 @ 3.1

Ascione has 11-3 on Hard this season, Miranda not playing great tennis loosing sets to bad players like Stolyarov and Hilair.. and crushing to Santoro 6-4 6-1

Per · 22-09-03, 21:59

This is it!! I sincerely suck at this competition!

ops:
Although I've managed to make some good gains over the last two weeks in monetary means I've failed miserably here!!!

I feel very much I have to redeem myself next month :!: :!:

Evening
Pick 7 [MLB] Start 03.05 am
SEATTLE MARINERS v Anaheim: 1 @ 1.75
Seattle will be looking to win this match as they battle to make the play offs.Their starting pitcher tonight Jamie Moyer is experienced and reliable and should make a big difference.
Anaheim Angels have had a disappointing season overall and have a losing Win/Loss record against the Mariners this term,so with Seattle sure to be motivated they should Win.
