Wouldn't you know they are 47 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: still your consensus and clear favorite at plus one eighty 48 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: seven at bet three sixty five. Bayron Munich is the 49 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: second choice at four to one. Right behind them is 50 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: Real Madrid at plus five fifty, so is Arsenal psg 51 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: is twelve to one, Inter Milan sixteen, Barcelona eighteen, our 52 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: boys from other boys from Madrid, our boy Diego Simioni 53 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: and Atletico Madrid. They are twenty five to one, so 54 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: is Dortmund Napoli sitting fifty, Leipzig sixty six to one 55 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: so associate Dodd, Porto one hundred to one, Lazzio won 56 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: fifty to one, PSV one hundred and fifty to one 57 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: and f C Copenhagen five hundred to one to win 58 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: the Champions League. Congrats to them getting through to the 59 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: knockout stage. Tough draw though for them anyways. Let's take 60 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: a quick run around the horn here if you had to, 61 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: or if you are betting a team here, Anthony, we'll 62 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: get to you last, because we know where that's going 63 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 1: to go. You alluded to it on Thursday Mornings Pot, 64 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: but DJA anything that piques your interest, here. 65 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 4: I really like Inter. You can find them at twenty 66 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 4: two to one. Obviously, they went to the final last 67 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 4: year and quite frankly, I don't think that City was 68 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 4: like completely dominant in that match. And really what it 69 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 4: comes down to for me is Inter is actually a 70 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 4: lot better this year than they were last year. So 71 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 4: far this season they have a plus one point two 72 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 4: to one expected gol differential per ninety minutes that is 73 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 4: second best among Europe's top five leagues, behind only Bayern Munich. 74 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 4: And they've shown that their tactical setup plays really well 75 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 4: in a tournament like this because Inter doesn't need to 76 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 4: have the ball to be successful. They're very, very good 77 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 4: on the break. They're actually better when they're playing in 78 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: transition and this season they brought one of Anthony's boys 79 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 4: over from Gladbach, Marcus Urram, and he is having a 80 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 4: sensational season and is a big time upgrade from last 81 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 4: season when Zecho was playing alongside Lato Martinez. So now 82 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 4: are in a situation where they unfortunately are gonna drew 83 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 4: Athleticum Madrid's but I still think it's a great matchup 84 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 4: for them in this first round, and this is one 85 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 4: of the best defensive teams across Europe. They've only allowed 86 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 4: ten goals in Syria this season. They're only allowed five 87 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 4: point three expected goals across the Champions League group stage, 88 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 4: only allowing point six saint non penalty actually for ninety minutes. 89 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 4: They are really good in set defense. They're very good 90 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 4: on the break and when they need to, when they 91 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 4: need to hold possession, they've shown that they can do 92 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 4: it as well. They've done it at Italy time and 93 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 4: time again. But for a team that really matches up 94 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 4: well with anybody in this tournament, at twenty two to one, 95 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 4: I think is a fantastic price on a team that 96 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 4: went to the finals and better since last year. 97 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: I am gonna go with PSV. One hundred and fifty 98 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: to one looks like the best price you can find 99 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: out there. This comes down to just their their draw. 100 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: I think they have a pretty winnable two leg match 101 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: against Dortmund, who haven't exactly set the world on fire 102 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,679 Speaker 1: they were. I think you have full value for getting 103 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: through that group of death with Milan, Newcastle and PSG. 104 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: But I think that you know when when you're when 105 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: you're looking for a long shot. At this point in 106 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: the competition, the first box they need to tick is 107 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: do they have a decent chance to get through? So 108 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: I'd like Socio Dodd this entire competition, but I'd rather 109 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: bet and these were the two long shots. I was 110 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: kind of deliberating between Socio DoD and PSV, and I 111 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: would rather go with PSV, just because you know, I 112 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: don't want to take on PSG with with Socio Dodd. I' 113 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: much rather take on Dortmund with with a PSV team 114 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: who weren't particularly sharp in the group stage. They got 115 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: battered by Arsenal, but in the first leg where but 116 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: we're still able to get through. They did get through 117 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: with a minus goal differential. I think it was negative too, 118 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: but most of that came because they got battered by 119 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: Arsenal fort nil. They were fine against lons and Sevilla, 120 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: and I've got no problem backing a team that just 121 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: doesn't give up any goals. In the errative is a 122 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: like they're they've been so good, but I think they've 123 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: conceded nine on the season. Everybody they're just going they're 124 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: running rough shot through that league. Whether that translates over 125 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: in when you're stepping up remains to be seen. But 126 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: we've seen teams really surprised, especially at this stage of 127 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: the competition. It's not out of the question that a 128 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: really kind of kookie team gets through to even the 129 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: semi finals, and they'd be my pick here just because 130 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: of who they have in the round of sixteen. If 131 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: you had switched as sociodd with PSV, I would be 132 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: giving almost the same exact argument for we associate DoD 133 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: and ay your thoughts here anything you're looking at back 134 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: on the futures market. 135 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, so there were two teams that popped out to 136 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 3: me immediately, one of which was Inter, which you know 137 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 3: famously rode with last year all the way to the 138 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 3: final and. 139 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 5: Lost in heartbreak. 140 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 3: But I agree with BJ's point about Inter, like I 141 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: think if you're looking for a team that I will 142 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 3: be betting when we get to them next week to advances, 143 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 3: there's a minus one thirty on them to advance. I 144 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: think they're clearly better than at LETTI, more than the 145 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 3: market suggests over two legs Taram, not just Tam, but 146 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 3: also Jon Sommer. So this team, like, I feel like 147 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: I have to at a principal ride with this team 148 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 3: because of you know, how they've embraced two of my 149 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 3: favorite players from from Germany, and he's been a really 150 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 3: good shots stopper. It's the main reason why they've overperformed 151 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 3: their x G. But also their defense is taking a 152 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: step forward this year. Challa Noolu has been really good, 153 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 3: more ball winning from him, and then of course Taram 154 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 3: is huge upgrade over Checho. Like you said, BJ, so 155 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: I don't disagree. I'm already holding PSG from pre tournament. 156 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 3: I don't really feel great about it. It's sitting at 157 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: the same number after we got through the Group of death, 158 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: and I don't really see them making a deep, deep 159 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 3: run here unless Imbappe does a madness which like could 160 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 3: happen in Bapa and don Ruma carry this team to 161 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 3: a quarterfinal upset. And now I'm holding, you know, a 162 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 3: pretty good semi final ticket on PSG. But I think 163 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 3: the best value bet on the board right now is 164 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 3: the second best team in this competition at the fourth 165 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 3: best odds. That's awesome six to one because first of all, 166 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 3: you know the way the draw is set up here 167 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 3: City got a pretty friendly draw, Byron got a pretty 168 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 3: friendly draw. Real Madrid could slip up. Wouldn't shock me 169 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 3: if they lost to Leipzig. We'll talk about that soon, 170 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: but I kind of think that the favorites here got 171 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: a pretty friendly path to the point where we're going 172 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 3: to have, you know, the four top favorites most likely 173 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 3: in the quarterfinals paired up with you know, either Barsa 174 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: or Napoli Inter or at Lettie and then like a 175 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 3: PSV dark horse, maybe you get a draw there that 176 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: can help you out. But I think when you look 177 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 3: at Arsenal, and this is a conversation we've had about 178 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 3: them all season on the pod, and BJ and I 179 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 3: have gone back and forth. We've had our little you know, 180 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 3: tit for tat I take a victory lap, he takes 181 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 3: a victory lab. 182 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 5: What's been consistently true about. 183 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 3: This team is that they are the best defensive team 184 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: in Europe, and that is Arteta has prioritized control to 185 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 3: the point where there will be matches in the English 186 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 3: League in the week to week where they don't get 187 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 3: three points enough, they settle for draws because their attack 188 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 3: isn't that explosive. They've kind of piecing it together without 189 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 3: like a top top striker slash goal scorer, and that 190 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 3: has hurt them in the league. And you've seen it 191 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,599 Speaker 3: at various times where they've kind of gotten soccered and 192 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 3: struggled to create et cetera, et cetera. And in a 193 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 3: tournament setting though, like, let's look at what Arsenal has 194 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 3: done to the top teams in England. When they played 195 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 3: City and the City was a little shorthanded for that match, 196 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: but less than one x G. They played Liverpool at anfield, 197 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 3: held them to about one expected goal. They just played 198 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 3: them again last week held them to you know, point 199 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 3: four point five x G. 200 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 5: Pretty impressive. They shut down Brighton at home. 201 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 3: They shut down Newcastle for the most part outside of 202 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: like one fluke chance that ended up being a tap in. 203 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 3: So this is a defense that has proven that it 204 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 3: can go up against the top teams in England and 205 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 3: pretty much just shut them down. And in a tournament setting. 206 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 3: I think they're more solid defensively than Real Madrid, for sure. 207 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 3: I don't really have faith in Barcelona because Barcelona is 208 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 3: stuck between you know, not being able to defend and 209 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: then just not having a great consistent attack when they 210 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: try to defend more. They haven't gotten the balance, right. 211 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 3: I think they're kind of flawed. Napoli has taken a 212 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 3: step back you look in Germany, you know Leipzig is 213 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 3: clearly a tier below Byron is interesting. 214 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 5: We've talked about Byron a ton. 215 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 3: I still think I'll take a full strength of Arsenal's 216 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 3: defense over Byron, but that would be a really fun matchup. 217 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 3: So I think I've got the second best team here 218 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 3: and a team that's proven it can it can compete 219 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 3: with City to the point where at six to one, 220 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 3: I think Arsenal is the my favorite bet on the board, 221 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 3: and I bet them to win the Champions League, even 222 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: though I don't think they should be one of the 223 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 3: two favorites for the league. I think in the Champions 224 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 3: League with Liverpool not there and with just how much 225 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 3: England is dominant right now, and I do, I do 226 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: firmly believe this that they're the best bet on the 227 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 3: board at six to one. 228 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 4: It's good to see you come over to the right 229 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 4: side of history. 230 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: It's good to see. 231 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 3: And I was never against Arsenal and they I'm against 232 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 3: them in the league. I've said that so many times now. 233 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 3: And Liverpool will finish above them, I think, but no 234 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 3: City will. But but yeah, I mean it's just they're 235 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 3: They're a team that's well built for this competition right now. 236 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 3: And they're healthy enough, right That was the biggest thing is, 237 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 3: you know, can they stay healthy enough. They've got Porto 238 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 3: in the round of sixteen. It would shock me if 239 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 3: they couldn't get past Porto. And then I'm in the 240 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 3: quarterfinals and it comes down to the draw. Hopefully we 241 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 3: get one of the friendly ones. I would love to 242 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: see Arsenal, you know, take I'm like a Barcelona. I 243 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 3: think that'd be a good matchup for Arsenal. 244 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 5: So it should be fun. 245 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: Okay, So that does it for the future segment. Onto 246 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: the matches. We'll start with Tuesdays, and we'll start with 247 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 1: man City as a minus three fifty favorite on the 248 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: road in Copenhagen. FC. Copenhagen is ten to one. The 249 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: draw here four to one. I think this is probably 250 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: going to be the least interesting of the four matches 251 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: Tuesday and Wednesday. I've got nothing here at all. I mean, 252 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: you want to bet Earling Holland to just score a 253 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: hat trick, go right ahead, but well, well well, I. 254 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 4: Mean I'm not going to bet Copenhagen here. But credit 255 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 4: to Copenhagen. They were the only team and they did 256 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 4: it twice. To hold Byron under one expected goal, like 257 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 4: they've been okay in a low block, but there's no 258 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 4: way I can get behind them here, so. 259 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 3: Pass. But it's the question is that'll say more about 260 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 3: Byron and Copenhagen's. 261 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 4: I don't know that's a good question because that group. 262 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 3: Ended up playing out kind of weird where United creater 263 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: early Copenhagen had that dramatic comeback win in the park 264 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 3: and to beat them, and then you know, the last 265 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 3: two matches, Copenhagen played at Byron and like you said, 266 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 3: got a well deserved draw and then outplayed Galatasarai at 267 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: home as well. 268 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 5: So at home in the Champions. 269 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: League, they have been a very difficult side to break down. 270 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 3: And that's been true even last year. So remember these 271 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: two teams played in the group stage last year it 272 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 3: was Dortmund, Sevilla and City and Copenhagen and Copenhagen got 273 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: totally rinsed in all of their away games, but at 274 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 3: home they had a positive expected goal difference. City did 275 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 3: pick up a red card early. There was a miss 276 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 3: pen as well, like there was some you know, nefarious action, 277 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 3: you know, breaks that went Copenhagen's way to keep that 278 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 3: match competitive, but they weren't played off the park. So 279 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 3: if you want to get crazy, I think like a 280 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 3: Copenhagen first half maybe just you know, first half under 281 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 3: if you think they can hold them out for the 282 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 3: first half. 283 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 5: But ultimately I agree like I don't really see the 284 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 5: path to them. 285 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 4: Point one thing to note with Copenhagen as well, the 286 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 4: Danish league has been on break during the winter. They 287 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 4: don't play, so they've basically just been playing friendlies up 288 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 4: until this point. Their actual real last real competition was 289 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 4: that match against galatass Rise, so they have you know, 290 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 4: they've played again, they've played three friendly ors you know, 291 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 4: six friendlies in between that period of time. But you know, 292 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 4: not having consistent matches then gearing up to play the 293 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 4: best team in the world might not be the best 294 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 4: spot to back Copenhagen. 295 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you remember back like price perspective, Copenhagen 296 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 3: was catching almost two one and a half against Bayern. 297 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 3: They've gotten the market bump, but now they're only at 298 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 3: one and a half against City, so you know, clearly 299 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 3: there's been some improved market rating on this Copenhagen team 300 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 3: and you'd be kind of buying high to buy them here. 301 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, no nil first half is maybe interesting. 302 00:14:58,840 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 5: Okay. 303 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: The other match on two day I think is quite 304 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: fun to dig into. That's a Leipzig at plus two 305 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: twenty at home Madrid Real Madrid traveling plus one ten 306 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: is a real favorite. The draw here is plus two sixty. 307 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: This is a show that we've we've liked Leipzig, kind 308 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: of big picture. Before the Champions League, we were unsuccessfully 309 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: betting them to beat City and such like stuff like 310 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 1: that during the group again a heart beat though, yeah, yeah, yeah, 311 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: it was fun. It was always just remembered. 312 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 5: I have a ticket on them too, ship yeah. 313 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 3: That they are fifty ish, all right, we got value 314 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: then because i've got sixty six. 315 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: No, sorry, they are sixty six to one, so I 316 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: jump into you can do it. 317 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 3: Another team that advanced from the group stage and their 318 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 3: odds did not improve, right the group was. 319 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: I mean, and they've been all right Bunliga. I don't 320 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: think up to standard and their current form is not 321 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: all that great. They just update four match winless streak 322 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: with a two nil over Unyan Berlin. But like, I 323 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: don't know, this feels like the type of situation where 324 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: we'll we'll tell you that Leipzig is the value side 325 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: and you should back them to give Madrid a go. 326 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: But this is where uh, Real Madrid kind of just 327 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: as excelled for a decade uh in this I mean 328 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: more than that in this tournament, and it feels weird. 329 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: I actually like to draw a bit. I think that 330 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked if both. I mean, Leipzig should 331 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: be better defensively, but it's just not worked out that 332 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: way in Bundesliga of the season, and Real Madrid could 333 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: easily just shut this game down if if they wanted to. 334 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: If it was like, you know, one to one, maybe 335 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: maybe Leipzig goes up early, Madrid fights its way back 336 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: into it to tie it one one, and they're like, 337 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: let's just take the drawback back home. Uh yeah, I know. 338 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: I just don't think a draw would be a terrible 339 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: result for for for either side in this one BJ 340 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: So I think it's it's gonna be a little more 341 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 1: cagey than perhaps you guys do. But that's that's the 342 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: only thing I'd be close to betting here is the 343 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: draw plus two sixty. 344 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. I actually do like Leipzig plus a half quite 345 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 4: a bit. Here. I have this projected like dead on 346 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 4: as a pickham. So we are recording this on Thursday 347 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 4: because obviously the Super Bowl is going to be on Sunday, 348 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 4: so we don't know what's going to happen in Jerona 349 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 4: and Real Madrid. Hopefully there's a ton of goals, but 350 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,239 Speaker 4: it came out that Carvajal and too Many are going 351 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 4: to have to play center back pairing against Rona, which 352 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 4: is not ideal against them. So we'll see if Rudiger 353 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 4: is actually healthy enough to play in this match, and 354 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,719 Speaker 4: if he's not, then what you're losing. You know, too 355 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 4: Many is probably their best ball stopper in terms of 356 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 4: a central midfielder, because if they're going to play Cruise 357 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 4: and Modrich there don't do a lot of ball winning. 358 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 4: You know, obviously great passers, but if you have to 359 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 4: play too Many at center back, that's kind of concerning. 360 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 4: Given the way that Leipsig want to play, which is 361 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 4: very direct right through the middle for two two two formation, 362 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 4: and really what Leipzig are trying to do most of 363 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 4: the times just get the ball to Shabby Simones, who 364 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,159 Speaker 4: has been incredible for them this season. And you know, 365 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 4: for Real Madrid we've talked about this quite a bit 366 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 4: as well. Their form away from home in Europe has 367 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 4: not been great for quite some time now. This season, 368 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 4: when they've played the two better teams in their group, 369 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 4: Napoli and Braga, they won both the matches away from home, 370 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 4: but they lost the expected goals battle. They played Leipzig 371 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 4: last year and they lost three two in Germany, and 372 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 4: even if you go through their results, I know they 373 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 4: beat Liverpool and they beat Chelsea last season in the 374 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 4: knockout stage. They lost the XG battle in both of 375 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 4: those matches. So it's not like Real Madrid is, you know, 376 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 4: housing teams here on the road comparatively to a team 377 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 4: like Byron or Manchester City. Even if you just look 378 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 4: at pure expect a goal differential overall for the season, 379 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 4: Leipzig's at point seven to two per ninety and Real 380 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 4: Madrid's at point eight three. There's really not that big 381 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 4: of a gap between Germany and Spain anymore as there 382 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 4: has been in years past. And for Real Madrid, you know, 383 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 4: one thing that they've really been struggling with lately is 384 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 4: defending on set pieces. You've seen it time and time again. 385 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 4: They've played Athletico what three times in the last month 386 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 4: it seems, and Athletico just keeps scoring off of essentially 387 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 4: corners against them. Well, Leipzig has scored eleven goals off 388 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 4: set pieces in Germany this season, and there's top six 389 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 4: next cheper set piece, So I really don't think there's 390 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 4: as big as gap as the market is suggesting here, 391 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 4: especially if Real Madrid is going to have to play 392 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 4: the center back paaring that they're going to play against Rona. 393 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 4: So I do like Leipzig quite a bit here plus 394 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 4: a half your best price starut there looks like it's 395 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 4: my minus one thirty five minus one forty in that range. 396 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 4: Minus one forty five would be my cutoff there. But 397 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 4: I really do like Leipzig to at least get a 398 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 4: draw here in this first leg. 399 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just have major concerns about Real Madrid's defense, 400 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 3: and they don't press right, so they rely on being 401 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 3: good box defenders, and when they don't have any of 402 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 3: their best defenders available, it's just not very good. And 403 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 3: you know you mentioned it BJ like they were fine 404 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 3: against it Letti, but again like offside, Var bails them 405 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 3: out on the first corner and then they can see 406 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 3: late and stoppage time. Anyway, it's been a defense that's 407 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 3: given up one and a half two x G the 408 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,719 Speaker 3: most competent teams they've played. Leipzig has to come out 409 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 3: pretty aggressively here and you mentioned it as well early 410 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 3: in the season. It's kind of been a tail of 411 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: two seasons. The first half of the season for Leipzig 412 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 3: was they were scoring a lot, but they weren't creating 413 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 3: a lot. Then they went through a stretch where they 414 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 3: weren't scoring at all, but they were creating even more. 415 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 3: And it's kind of evened out kind of beautifully here. 416 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 3: But it's still a very competent attacking team with Chavy, 417 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 3: Siemens Simons and and Oponda, like, they're still getting really 418 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 3: impressive numbers. They were, you know, largely uncompetitive with City. 419 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 5: In that match. That's the only kind of red flag 420 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 5: that I have for them. 421 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 3: But I think City is so much better at controlling 422 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 3: games than Real Madrid that they'll give Real Madrid, will 423 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 3: give Leipzig their opportunities to have attacks. I think Real Madrid, 424 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 3: just generally in the Champions League, bets on the fact 425 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 3: they're going to be better in the big moments. They're 426 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 3: going to finish their chances better than you. They're going 427 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 3: to save their chances, your chances better than you will, 428 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 3: and thus I think they are flawed and I you 429 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 3: know it's a wonder goal special right me and bjsay, Well, 430 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 3: the numbers say we should fade Real Madrid in the 431 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 3: Champions League and then we all lose. But I'm going 432 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 3: to take the team totals for Leipzig. I like first 433 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 3: half team total over plus one to fifteen, so to 434 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 3: score in the first half, and then I also like 435 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 3: a team total over one and a half for the 436 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 3: game at a plus one forty. I just think that 437 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,479 Speaker 3: the market still respects this real Matric defense a lot 438 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 3: more than I do. I think structurally it's very average, 439 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 3: and now talent wise it's below average given the personnel problems. 440 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 3: So Leipzig's going to get their goals here. I think 441 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 3: they'll probably can see a couple too. I think this 442 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 3: in theory right, like first leg, it could be KG 443 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 3: could play out that way, but I don't think Real 444 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 3: Madrid is really capable of playing that style right now, 445 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 3: So as a result, I will take Leipzig team totals. 446 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: Here we go again, Yeah, so to two draw? Who 447 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 1: says no, That's what I'm saying. I think it's going 448 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 1: to be one of those whether draws just in play 449 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: the entire match because it's two to one or one 450 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: zero and whoever falls behind has a chance to nick 451 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: it back. All right, Wednesday now, Lotzio or five to 452 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 1: one at home hosting Bayern Munich, you'd have to lay 453 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: minus one eighty eight on the road with Byron, and 454 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 1: the draw is three to one for this one. You 455 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: know that there's no love loss between you two and 456 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: Lotsio over the years, but there's also no love loss 457 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: between all of us and Byron and Anthony almost kind 458 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: of had some sort of intervention with us on Thursday 459 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: Morning Spot about how it's just we should just start 460 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: betting on Byron. It's just so much more fun to 461 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: be on their side than going against them every week, 462 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: and he's going to try to convince us here. 463 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 5: Yeah. 464 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 3: I think this is a huge difference in class and 465 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 3: when Byron has played in the I know they've had 466 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 3: a couple of bad results this year that haven't held 467 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 3: up against Copenhagen and Galatassarai, especially on the road where 468 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 3: they haven't been as good as normal. But I think 469 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 3: there's a massive, massive gap between these two teams, and 470 00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 3: I'm willing to lay the money line here in the 471 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 3: first that Byron comes out and just beats the shit 472 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 3: out of them. I think Lotsio if you look at 473 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 3: their results even it's gotten worse as well for Lotzio, 474 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 3: but they have the market hasn't really moved on this 475 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 3: game in the last month. 476 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 5: I bet it like a month ago. 477 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 3: Here's what Lotsio has done coming into this match, pretty alarming. 478 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 3: They beat Leche in a game where they had less 479 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 3: than one expected goal created at home one nil. They 480 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 3: got beat three nil by Inter. It's kind of a 481 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 3: similar situation to what this is. But they were out 482 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 3: shot in the inter match twenty three to five. They 483 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 3: did not get a shot on target, and you would 484 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 3: expect them to have some type of response off of 485 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 3: that game they hosted Napoli. Napoli did not have Kavar 486 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 3: Scalia or Oceanman and what happened in that match Lotzio 487 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 3: managed ten shots, they put none of them on target. 488 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 3: So another game with no shots on target, two straight 489 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 3: games they couldn't score. Surely you'd expect Lotzio would get 490 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 3: then a response going on the road to Atalanta. No, 491 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,360 Speaker 3: they created six total shots in that match, they put 492 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 3: one on target and it was the penalty shoot, penalty. 493 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 5: Kick from Chiromobili. 494 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 3: So they have not created over one XG in any 495 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 3: match in Italy, and I know Italy has been a 496 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 3: little bit lower event, but in any match in Italy 497 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 3: for the last month, basically they've played it is now 498 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 3: six straight matches without creating a full expected goal, not 499 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 3: including penalties. They have failed to score more than one 500 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 3: in almost all of those matches. And even defensively, you 501 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 3: know what has been a good defense in the past, 502 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 3: Like they played at Alanta, they played inter they were 503 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 3: not competitive in those matches and even the Napoli match, 504 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:43,959 Speaker 3: a totally short haeaded Napoli. 505 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 5: They couldn't they couldn't break away. 506 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 3: So I think the market should have responded to this. 507 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 3: The market should be constently downgrading this Lozzio team off 508 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 3: of what we've seen, and the market has not moved 509 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 3: Byron is still sitting in minus one eighty one eighty five. 510 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 5: I'm willing to lay it. 511 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 3: Is it square, maybe a little, but I think that 512 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 3: this Latto team is a paper tiger waiting to get exposed. 513 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 3: This is a Lotto team that was badly outplayed by 514 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 3: fi Nord in the group stage in the in both 515 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 3: meetings and managed to get through despite just meh, underline 516 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 3: numbers and they can't control games, they don't press the 517 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 3: mobile A is looking old. So I think Canaan So 518 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:21,959 Speaker 3: and I just kind of have their way here. 519 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 1: PG got any thoughts here, Yeah, I. 520 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 4: Mean, if I were to play anything, I would agree 521 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 4: with Anthony. I'd probably just lay Byron minus one and 522 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 4: a half and try to chase a big price here, 523 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 4: because you know, as Anthony is laid out Lotsio, there 524 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 4: hasn't really been a performance where you walk away and 525 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 4: you say, oh my gosh, like this team is actually 526 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 4: pretty good. We'll see what Byron looks like against Leverkusen 527 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 4: on Saturday. Hopefully they win. Hopefully if they look great there, 528 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 4: I yeah, this is this is going to be just 529 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 4: one way traffic. So I agree with Anthony if I 530 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 4: were to play anything, to be Byron minus one and 531 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 4: a half. 532 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 533 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 3: We actually saw this a few years ago in the 534 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 3: Champions League where Lotzio was like kind of a middling 535 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 3: Seria team and they got through and then Iron just 536 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 3: crush them, and that was a lots of team that 537 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 3: at least had like a younger I mobil A and 538 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 3: a good Luis Alberto Like this Latto team just doesn't. 539 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 5: There's nothing they do in attack that's particularly inspiring. 540 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 4: Good luck was sorry Baull trying to build out of 541 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 4: the back against Byron's press. That's all I'll say. They're 542 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 4: gonna have a lot of problems with them. 543 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 5: To be able to control this game. Ye pretty pretty easily, 544 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 5: all right. 545 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: PSG and rialf Socia Dodd. PSG minus won sixty three 546 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: at home Socio Dodd traveling as a plus four twenty 547 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: five underdog. The draw here is three to one. A 548 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: couple of things I want to note. One thing is 549 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: that if if Sosia Dodd gets back home down one nill, 550 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: I think I would play there basically any future across 551 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: the board, because I think that they're live in this 552 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: in this two leg matchup. I think that they are 553 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: a team that profiles well in tournament play because of 554 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: their their defense, their ability kind of just grind out results. 555 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: They are. I think they've drawn what six of their 556 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: last nine matches in La Liga. They are. They are 557 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: just a raw machine. This season. The overall record nine wins, 558 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: ten draws and four losses with a plus eleven goal differential. 559 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: You look at the underlying numbers, it's defensive regression should 560 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: negatively should come for them, but it's still not bad. 561 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 1: Like they're they're good defensive out defensive outfit, that's been 562 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: their profile for a while. There's just a lot of 563 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: things that strike me as a with this team that 564 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: kind of profile as the teams we've seen advance, kind 565 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: of sleepy teams advanced through to the quarterfinals or semi 566 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 1: finals in in the years past. So there's a lot 567 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 1: to like here. I think that they're also, you know, 568 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: plus four to twenty five is pretty decent number to 569 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: take a shot on with with the way they're going 570 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 1: to want to play this game and just turn it 571 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: into as low event as they can against a a 572 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: PSG side that Anthony was talking about, Like it's just 573 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: going to want to try to get Mbope the ball 574 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: and let him do his thing on his own, which, hey, 575 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: it works. They're they're a pretty chunky favorite for a reason. 576 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: But there's just I think there's a lot of ways 577 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: you can still use sociadd and find value, whether it's 578 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: sitting sitting this one out and then backing them at 579 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 1: a bigger number in the home leg, whether it's betting 580 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,719 Speaker 1: them uh futures, I still think like you can make 581 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: a pretty solid argument that hey, if they get through 582 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: this one, the number is gonna creator. So why not 583 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: just do it now, long winded way to say, I 584 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: like them here, be back of them on the money line, 585 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna kind of just stick with them until 586 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: they are punted out of this competition. BJ what do 587 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: you think? 588 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I do like lipstick here quote or excuse me, 589 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 4: not real associated here quite a bit. So here's the 590 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 4: thing with with Sociodad. They have been you know it 591 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 4: last year they were you know, they've always been a 592 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 4: great defensive team and there are all offensive numbers have 593 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 4: taken a bit of a dip this year, but what 594 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 4: has remained true for them is they are the best 595 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 4: pressing team in Spain and that is a big thing 596 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 4: here against PSG, who under Enrique are going to play 597 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 4: the ball out of the back. And we saw it 598 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 4: once in the Champions League when Newcastle was at least 599 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 4: somewhat of as semblance of the Newcastle team that we 600 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 4: saw last year. They pressed the hell out of PSG. 601 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 4: They caused so many problems and they beat them for one. 602 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 4: Right now, Sosidad is first in La Liga in both 603 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 4: passive defensive action and progressive passes and dribbles allowed. They 604 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 4: will press out a very narrow four four two and 605 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 4: their principles essentially are to dominate the middle of the pitch. Now, 606 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 4: that's going to leave Himbappe out if they try to 607 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 4: play Bape out wide, it's going to leave him in 608 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 4: some one on one situations, which is obviously frightening. But honestly, 609 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 4: whatever in Babe is on the pitch, he is frightening 610 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 4: and he is a game wrecker, and that's just something 611 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 4: you have to kind of I think is priced in. Yeah, 612 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 4: he's just priced in here. It's basically what it is. 613 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 4: But what I will say is that Soci Dad is 614 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 4: an unbelievable defensive team. Only point nine to nine nine 615 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 4: penalty xgper ninety in lat League of the season, didn't 616 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 4: allow anybody including Inter to create over one expected goal 617 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 4: against them during the group stage, and although their offensive 618 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 4: numbers have taken a little bit of a dip, a 619 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 4: lot of their bad their worst offensive performances have come 620 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 4: in these last four matches, when they you know, when 621 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 4: Kubo is away at the Asian Cup with Japan, he 622 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 4: has missed five matches this season for them. In those 623 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 4: five matches, they have their averaging point five to eight 624 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,479 Speaker 4: x G per ninety minutes with him in the lineup 625 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 4: one point three to seven. Not so bad. So it's 626 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 4: not like they're an elite offensive team, but at least 627 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 4: they're good with him in the lineup, and he is 628 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 4: somebody that can obviously do a lot of game recor. 629 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 4: It looks like Screener might not play in this match 630 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 4: for PSG, which would be a loss for them. I 631 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 4: only have PSG at minus one fourteen. They're kind of 632 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 4: just on cruise control in League Gun and they don't 633 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 4: really face a lot of teams that pressed with the 634 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 4: intensity and effectiveness that Sociad is going to press them with. Really, 635 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 4: the only team that kind of comes to mind in 636 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 4: France that can press the way thats Sociated does is 637 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 4: Niece and Heeds beat PSG and they cause a lot 638 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 4: of problems pressing them. So I think this is a 639 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 4: pretty decent matchup here. I think soci Dad can cause 640 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 4: a lot of problems for PSG's build up, And yeah, 641 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 4: and Bope might wreck this game, but I think it's 642 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 4: a little high here on PSG, so I like Soci 643 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: Dad plus one best p best odds you can find 644 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 4: on that are minus one twenty two. 645 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 5: I agree entirely. 646 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 3: I'm on Soci Dodd as well. I like this team 647 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 3: in the tournament setting for the same reasons. You know, 648 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 3: we talked about my top four tickets on life support 649 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 3: because they can't beat anybody. They just keep tying everybody. 650 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, defensive press is everything they will 651 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 3: be able to. I think do enough to shut off 652 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 3: the easy access to Himbappe. Of course, he's going to 653 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 3: get his time and his moments, and he's probably going 654 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 3: to score. But I think Soci DoD can can keep 655 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 3: this game more competitive than the market suggests. I think 656 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 3: they're certainly live to pull off an upset in this 657 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 3: round wouldn't shock me at all. Granted, they're like the 658 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 3: group winner, so they're, you know, expected to be pretty competitive. 659 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 3: They're slight underdog to advance if if you were looking 660 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 3: for a too advanced underdog in this round, I think 661 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 3: this is probably the most interesting one. We'll talk about 662 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 3: Barsa and Appoli next week, but that one like neither 663 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 3: team really has an identity right now. This one to me, 664 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 3: like Soci Dodd has a plan, they know what they're 665 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 3: gonna do, and even though they don't have as much 666 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 3: you know, frontline talent and attack like, they're probably the 667 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 3: better team, but they're competitive enough to make this interesting. 668 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 5: So I like Soci Dood. 669 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, they they And like I said, I think that 670 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: they're you can have some kind of fun game theory 671 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: or handicap pencil and paper handicapping with the Socio Dodd 672 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: team because in all likelihood and as the odds tell you, 673 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: like they're gonna lose this match, but they're probably gonna 674 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,719 Speaker 1: lose it, as Beja said, their minds one twenty two 675 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: plus one, so it's it should be tight. And at 676 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: that point I think that they are still live. Like 677 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: they get back to Spain trailing the aggregate by one goal, 678 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: this team is still still in this thing. So I 679 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: not just my face right on your dog to advance, 680 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: but also just entirely kind infatuated with this team and 681 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:07,959 Speaker 1: not going to give up on them if they they 682 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: you know, burn me here. As at plus four twenty 683 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: five underdog, I think that there's plenty left to say 684 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,959 Speaker 1: about Socio dot as long as you know, and now 685 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: we say this and PSG is going to win four 686 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: nil bope hat trick, And. 687 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: Well, there's basically like three ties that are you know, 688 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 3: reasonably competitive, where it's like the favorite is under minus 689 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 3: two hundred two advance. Right, you've got PSG this one 690 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 3: where you can get Socia Dodd as high as plus 691 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 3: one forty. You've got Barcelona Napoli, and then you've got 692 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 3: inter at Lettie and p at PSV Dormant as well. 693 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 3: So I guess four of the ties are interesting, and 694 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 3: whoever wins those four will kind of go up against 695 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 3: I think ultimately the seeds of the next round, which 696 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 3: is like Madrid, Arsenal City and Byron, and then you know, 697 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 3: depending on how they get matched up, we could get 698 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 3: one of those surprise semi finalists. 699 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: Okay, let's quickly talk about Europa League. If you guys 700 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: have any best bets you want to give out there, Antony, 701 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: we could start with you. 702 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 3: Well, let's go to the futures board, because so the 703 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 3: Europa League second year of the new format, where we 704 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 3: have twenty four teams in the knockouts, and so sixteen 705 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 3: of them will play in the kind of two leg 706 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 3: playoff over the next two weeks. So we've got some 707 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 3: interesting matchups, you know, the biggest one, the biggest two 708 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 3: on the board. For some reason, these two teams just 709 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 3: keep getting paired up against one another. First they play 710 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 3: in the Conference league final, devastating for Fine RD they 711 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 3: lose to Roma and Maurinho. And then they played an 712 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 3: epic two legger in the quarterfinals of the Europa League 713 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 3: last year where Fine Ord was up one nil and 714 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 3: then had a two to one aggregate lead until the 715 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 3: ballis scored and stoppage chime, and then Roma kind of 716 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 3: beat the brakes off them in extra time and went on. 717 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 5: To win that one. 718 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 3: And now they're going to play again in the round 719 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 3: of twenty four of the Europa League. And I like 720 00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 3: over two and a half at even money, and I've 721 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 3: been talking talking about this repeatedly now just I think 722 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 3: the market is this Roma team is not playing it 723 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 3: the same way as they did Premrinho, and you're not 724 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 3: going to get your traditional tournament Roma where they're going 725 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 3: to go on the road and not do any attacking whatsoever. 726 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 3: Fine Ord at home this year has been an absolute 727 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 3: truck against you know, they played Lotzio. They play such 728 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 3: an open style that Romo will get their chance on 729 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 3: the break and I think fine Ord will be happy 730 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,479 Speaker 3: to play a more open kind of back and forth match. 731 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 3: You know, keep in mind they so they played the 732 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 3: cup final, they played the first leg, but the second 733 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 3: meeting between the two teams was very open. Both teams 734 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 3: took a ton of chances, and so I think you're 735 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 3: going to see some of that in this one. So 736 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 3: over two and a half at even money, and then 737 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 3: so the odds board, there's two overwhelming favorites and two 738 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 3: of the you know six best teams in Europe are 739 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 3: or maybe seven are in this tournament. Right, So you've 740 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 3: got Larrakusen and you've got Liverpool Liverpool at plus. 741 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 5: Two to fifty plus two twenty five. 742 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 3: Like, it's just not really enticing to me because I 743 00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 3: think they're going to be in the Premier League title race, 744 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 3: and I think if you go look like where they're 745 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 3: going to play some of their matches, there's going to 746 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 3: be cases where clop has to make some decisions about 747 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 3: who gets prioritized because they don't have I don't think 748 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 3: the depth to go all in on all four competitions right, 749 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 3: because they're in the Carabo Final, they're still in the 750 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 3: FA Cup. They have to make some decisions kind of 751 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 3: on how they're going to manage their squad in Cloup's 752 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 3: final year. So I have no real interest in betting Liverpool. 753 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 3: I think we mentioned I don't know if we mentioned 754 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 3: on the show, but we talked about Leverkusen as Europa 755 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,280 Speaker 3: League threat pretty early on in the year. Their value 756 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 3: is gone now too, and I do think that, you know, 757 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 3: they should probably be a little closer to Liverpool to 758 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 3: win it, just based on both have buys and both 759 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 3: are you know, playing at an elite level in Europe 760 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 3: right now. But I think the best team kind of 761 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 3: on the odds board if you're looking to go down 762 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 3: the list. I know Bja has a team too. I 763 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 3: kind of just go process elimination. Right. Milan is ten 764 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 3: to one. They're in the knockout round right now, I 765 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 3: have to play Ren, who's not a pushover, not a 766 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 3: bad team, and I don't think is really any good defensively. 767 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 3: I've gone into that enough this year. 768 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 5: So Milan, no, thank you. 769 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 3: Brighten At twelve to one, I don't think they're well 770 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 3: set up for this because they you know, have a 771 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 3: high ceiling, but their defense just feels a little too leaky. 772 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 3: That don't trust the goalie at all. West Ham twelve 773 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 3: to one. No, thank you, Roma sixteen to one. If 774 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 3: you told me yes, Roma will advance to the next round. 775 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 3: I think Roma sixteen to one is intriguing, but they 776 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 3: have a tough I mean, they're pretty solid underdogs at 777 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 3: Fiord in the first like, they're basically a coin flip 778 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,800 Speaker 3: to advance. So you know, Roma's sixteen to one, you 779 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 3: can get Fiord at forty to one. When Finid is 780 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 3: basically a coin flip to advance against Roma, it doesn't 781 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,280 Speaker 3: make a ton of sense from an odds perspective. Benfica 782 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 3: twenty to one BJ we were just talking about them 783 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 3: off there no interest in them. At Alanta is kind 784 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 3: of the team I settled on at twenty five to one. 785 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 3: They've they've played elite defense in Syria this year. Their 786 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 3: attack is trending up because the cat Dela has taken 787 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 3: a real step forward. You know, you compare their numbers 788 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 3: underlying to Milan and to Roma. There's not a huge 789 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 3: difference between the three teams, except that Milan's tend to 790 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 3: Romas sixteen to one. Both are playing in the knockout 791 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 3: round and at Alanta has a bye to the round. 792 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 5: Of sixteen, where they'd be seated. 793 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 3: So I think at Alanta twenty five to one is 794 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,720 Speaker 3: where I've settled here. I think they're you know, Italy 795 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 3: has done me well relatively in these knockout events the 796 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 3: last couple of years, and I think that the league 797 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:20,879 Speaker 3: as a whole has some decent depths, So I don't 798 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,439 Speaker 3: I believe it. I think, you know they're a live 799 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 3: team just because of how much improved their defenses this year. 800 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: Anything for you here, BJ, Yeah, just for a couple bets. 801 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 4: I like Sporting quite a bit. At minus one ten 802 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 4: against young boys, I think it's a terrible matchup for 803 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 4: young boys. In Sporting it's a significantly better team. I'll 804 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 4: get to them in a second. Other best bet will 805 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,239 Speaker 4: be Galataster Eye Sparta Prague over two and a half. 806 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 4: We should not be setting Galatasaraie matches at two and 807 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:55,439 Speaker 4: a half, always should be at three and one. More. 808 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 4: I have a fun one for everybody, and you're gonna 809 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 4: listen to this on Monday, and I'll be honest, I 810 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 4: might need Tony Politics to step in and research this 811 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 4: for me. There is an ongoing police strike going on 812 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 4: in Portugal right now. It caused all their matches to 813 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 4: be postponed this past weekend. Benefica is playing to lose 814 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 4: at home and they are massive favorites to advance. There 815 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 4: is a precedent that has been set in twenty twenty one, 816 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 4: if you remember Anthony, Tottenham had to forfeit a Europea 817 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 4: Conference League match against Wren because of COVID nineteen and 818 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 4: they didn't have enough of a police presence to actually 819 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 4: secure the safety of the match. So it's seemingly right 820 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 4: now from what I've read on Thursday morning, there is 821 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 4: no end to this police strike. So that means that 822 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 4: to lose could be awarded a three to zero win 823 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 4: on the road and take that result back to France. 824 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 4: They are currently three to one to advance. I would 825 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 4: not bet them this first leg because I'm guessing every 826 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 4: sports book will avoid it if it's a forfeit. But 827 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 4: if it's to advance, I'm not sure if they can 828 00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 4: actually avoid that if there is actually a second leg 829 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 4: being played. So that is the other one in terms 830 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 4: of futures, I really like Sporting Lisbon at thirty three 831 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 4: to one. I think they have shown throughout the last 832 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 4: couple of years in Europe that they are very very 833 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 4: capable of taking down some of the top teams. If 834 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 4: you remember, they beat Tottenham during the Champions League group 835 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 4: stage and they knocked out Arsenal in the Europa League 836 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 4: knockout stage last season. And really what they they're set 837 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,360 Speaker 4: up is very similar to They take like a mixture 838 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 4: of what Galatasaraye has done. Combine that with actually building 839 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 4: out of the back, with the principles that you know 840 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 4: Brighton and Leverkusen do with the box midfield, and they 841 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 4: have unbelievable attackers that can get forward. Yokerish, who came 842 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 4: over from Coventry City, has been incredible for them fifteen 843 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 4: goals point eighty six actually plus xa per ninety minutes, 844 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 4: incredible runner off the back line. They want to make 845 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 4: quick vertical passes to get going forward and that sets 846 00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 4: them up really well as a team to play when 847 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 4: they play and some of the big boys. They're dominating 848 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 4: everybody in Portugal right now plus one point four to 849 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 4: one actually differential per ninety minutes. Uh again, I just 850 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 4: talked about this police strike. They're on the road against 851 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 4: the Young Boys here to start things off, so hopefully 852 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 4: they can get a big result here, because maybe they 853 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 4: can figure out a way to actually play this. 854 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 3: I really need I need, I need the strike to 855 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 3: continue because Beach just said, but against this Portuguese team, 856 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 3: because their strike is this whoa but theris going to end? 857 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 5: Because it's more likely that this strike is going to 858 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 5: end in two weeks. 859 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 4: Than it is on Thursday. Anthony, so my research, so 860 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 4: I step in. But anyway, yeah, thirty three to one. 861 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 4: They got young boys, like it's it's a very you know, 862 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:47,399 Speaker 4: I'm hoping that they can figure out something. But yeah, 863 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 4: I mean maybe you can just wait and just see 864 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 4: what happens with the strike. 865 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: But solidarity to all the Portuguese. 866 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,320 Speaker 5: Yeah it's a pro labor podcast. 867 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah exactly. But hey, these are the things we 868 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 4: have to do with you know, sometimes we've got to 869 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 4: cap geopolitics on this podcast to try. 870 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: Just wait till we get to uh just wait, dill 871 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: we get to our our European previous championship exactly. 872 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 4: But yeah, anyway, Sporting thirty three to one if the 873 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 4: strike ends before their home match against Young Boys, just. 874 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: A great caveat Okay, I hired to. 875 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,760 Speaker 5: Well even hold so Porto. 876 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 3: I hadn't even thought of this. Now Porto is hosting 877 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 3: in two weeks as well. 878 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:35,759 Speaker 5: Yep, so great for the. 879 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 4: Arsenal Braga and Braga is hosting get that Arsenal ticket 880 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 4: in before this becomes being news, is hosting. 881 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 5: The to the to the Portuguese police strike. 882 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, who is the time this podcast is out, will 883 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 3: probably haven't resolved and exactly that's. 884 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 4: Why there, but hey, it could happen. Who's Braga hosting 885 00:42:55,800 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 4: Choir Bag perfect from Azerbaijan, So maybe them to advance 886 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 4: as well, okay, par Michael to lose in Quara bag 887 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:05,359 Speaker 4: to advance. 888 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: The year the Portuguese police strike parlay p p P. 889 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 1: That's why, that's why you come listen, you know, And 890 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: I hope that there's a lot of people that are 891 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,360 Speaker 1: listening to this, maybe for the first time, because the 892 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: NFL season ended and they still want to bed and whatever, 893 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: and now they're set up to expect to hear this 894 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 1: kind of stuff every every weekend. You won't be disappointed. 895 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 1: You won't be disappointed. So after we have now unturned 896 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 1: every stone that we can to go through the European 897 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 1: matches coming up on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Let's just 898 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: wrap it up with our favorite bets for this week 899 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 1: to come. Bjay, you can go first. 900 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 4: Leipzig plus a half minus one thirty five against Real Madrid. 901 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 4: It's honestly a pretty good matchup for them. Real Madrid 902 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 4: might have to play a center back pairing of Chewa 903 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,399 Speaker 4: Many and car of A Hall, which is not great 904 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 4: for them, not just because they're bad center back, but 905 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 4: they're losing too many as their best ball stopping midfielders. 906 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 4: So if they decided to play Cruise and Modrich in 907 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,479 Speaker 4: the midfield, well, for a Leipzig team that really wants 908 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 4: to attack you vertically and transitionally right through the middle 909 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 4: of the pitch, that is not a great scenario for 910 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 4: Real Madrid, who honestly hasn't been that great of a defense, 911 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,480 Speaker 4: and they're really bad on set pieces, and that's something 912 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 4: Leipzig has done really well this season, scored eleven goals 913 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 4: off of set pieces six the next cheaper set piece 914 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,880 Speaker 4: in Germany, and Real Madrid's form away from home in 915 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,319 Speaker 4: the Champions League hasn't been good for a long time. 916 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 4: I know they beat both Napoli and Braga this season, 917 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 4: but they lost the XG battle in both of those. 918 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 4: They lost to Leipzig last year in the group stage 919 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 4: in Germany, so I really don't think they should be 920 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 4: an odds on favorite here on the road. So I 921 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 4: like Leipsig plus a half of minus one thirty five. 922 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:45,839 Speaker 1: I like Associate Dat on the money line plus four 923 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: to twenty five. We talked about it. This team should 924 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 1: provide plenty of value I think across both legs and 925 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: maybe beyond in this tie with PSG. So this back 926 00:44:56,520 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: the defense of stalwarts from La Liga here and what 927 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 1: about you've got. 928 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Byron Munich minus one eighty on 929 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 3: the road, lay in the juice, don't care. I think 930 00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 3: Lazio is a fraud, and they've shown it as much. 931 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:10,919 Speaker 5: In the last month. 932 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 3: The market has continued to stay pretty steady on this line. 933 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 3: I disagree with it. I think Bayron rolls here and 934 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 3: sets up an exciting quarterfinal. One more thing as well. 935 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 3: You know last year we did one future from each. 936 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 3: I'm gonna make it an even three. Arsenal six to 937 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 3: one at Alanto twenty five to one, Lil twelve to 938 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 3: one in the Conference League for me. So hopefully we 939 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 3: can make it a clean, clean sweep. That means you 940 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 3: can book all three. 941 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 5: Of them to lose the final. 942 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: Okay, perfect, So book those three to lose in the final. 943 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 1: PSV booked them to win it at and book the 944 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,240 Speaker 1: Portuguese police strike to end. I believe what on Sunday, 945 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: just in time for BJ maybe maybe to lose all 946 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: these Yeah, but yeah, we'll see what happens. 947 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 4: But the we do, we do have to capture of 948 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 4: politics on this spot cast. 949 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: Unfortunately, they'll be bringing they'll be bringing BJ BJ's face 950 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: to the table at the negotiations. Like we just we 951 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,000 Speaker 1: have it. We have a solid deadline noway, we'll be 952 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: We got to make sure this guy loses his body.
