Perhaps all is well at the ETI hadn't 36 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: after all the draws plus two sixty Arsenal coming off 37 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,239 Speaker 1: a lost to Everdon. Then they drew with Brentford in 38 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: a game I don't even think they deserve. 39 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: To get a point out of Oh stop? 40 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: Whatever is the market kind of overlooking the gunners off 41 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: those two performances? 42 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this is just a classic cell high 43 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 4: spot on City in a bylow spot on Arsenal. I 44 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 4: really don't think that the Gunners should be underdogs because 45 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 4: first off, these are teams just played in the FA Cup. 46 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 4: What was that two weeks ago on a Friday Arsenal 47 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 4: rolled out you know, not entirely their B team, but 48 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 4: a lot of second choice players of all City. Remember 49 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 4: it was at the ETI had and Pet played a 50 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 4: pretty much a full strength squad and City did absolutely 51 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 4: nothing in the entire match. 52 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 2: They had just zero point three to two. 53 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 4: Expected goals and an expected threat of point six y's 54 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 4: eight two penalty box shots and oh both those came 55 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 4: after Thomas Party came off the pitch in favor of 56 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 4: the Congo, who's already now at lone at Crystal Palace. 57 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 4: So yes, Arsenal has not played well the last few matches. 58 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 4: They were out played by Everton and then for large 59 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 4: stretches was outplayed by Brentford, even though they got screwed 60 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 4: on the set piece goal that var just forgot to 61 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 4: draw the line where. 62 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 2: It should be. 63 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 4: So that was fun. But no, I mean Arsenal. This 64 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 4: is Arsenal at home. They've been unbelievable there this season 65 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 4: plus one point four expected gold differential for ninety minutes, 66 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 4: while City when they've played the Big Six away from home, 67 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 4: they haven't played too well. Like if you go back 68 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 4: and look, they played Liverpool when Liverpool was pretty far 69 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 4: down and at their lowest, Liverpool outplayed them or outpraded 70 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 4: them on expected goals two point one to one. Really, 71 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 4: the only time they've actually beaten the team on expected 72 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 4: goals was against Chelsea, who was at their low point 73 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 4: after the World Cup as well. They got out played 74 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 4: obviously by United and then they recently just got out 75 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 4: played by Spurs, So I'm not so sure that they 76 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 4: should be a favorite here. I get it, they just 77 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 4: beat asked and they created a bunch of expected goals, 78 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 4: but the game state kind of changes when you score 79 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 4: off a set piece goal in the third minute, So 80 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 4: I'd like to see how that match would play out 81 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 4: if Villa didn't concede inside the first three minutes. So 82 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 4: I will be playing Arsenal. I do have them projected 83 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,799 Speaker 4: at plus one fifty and City at plus one seventy seven, 84 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 4: so I think the line should actually be flipped. I 85 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 4: don't really think Arsenal should be an underdog here, so 86 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 4: I'm wrong with my gunners. John Obett plus one oh five. 87 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 4: I really I don't think they should be a underdog. 88 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 4: I think City still has problems. 89 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: I kinda like to draw here for a couple of reasons. One, 90 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: two really good defenses, two teams that do a lot 91 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: of the same things well, and I just don't think 92 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: either team would be that upset with getting a point 93 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: out of this match. I think City, had City had 94 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: Arsenal not drop two points over the weekend, it would 95 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: be a different story. But now the calculus kind of 96 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: changes a little bit, and City can play more of 97 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: a big picture view of this game and say, all right, well, 98 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: let's just there are three or three points back. I 99 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: know Arsenal's got a game in hand, but if we 100 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: kind of just stay here and bet on ourselves to 101 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: have the better stretch run, that's not a terrible tactic, 102 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: let's say so. I think Anthony's bett kind of plays 103 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 1: into this a little bit, or at least where he's looking. 104 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: I think that this is going to be a little 105 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: bit of a a snoozer. That used to be the 106 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: cliche with these one of these two teams, not Arsenal City, 107 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: but when one versus two would play prior to the 108 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: classics between City and Arsenal, over the past few years 109 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: that we would say, ah, you know, these these games 110 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: often times end up being slugfests and kind of boring, 111 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: and both teams play pragmatically, and then it's stopped that 112 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,559 Speaker 1: that trend kind of stopped for a couple of seasons, 113 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,239 Speaker 1: and I think we're going to actually head back towards 114 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: that and see two teams. So I like to drop 115 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: plus two sixty. I don't hate an exact score of 116 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: like maybe nil mil. You'll get a good number because 117 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: people will expect us some goals. That's where I'm looking here. 118 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: I'll probably be on the drug. 119 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. II lean toward the under at two and a half. 120 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 3: It's a little bit dicey, but you know, two and 121 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: three quarters if we get there. I really like the under. 122 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 3: This Arsenal attack has shown some signs of weakness in 123 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 3: the last couple of weeks, and I think that we're 124 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 3: going to continue to see that with Jesus being out. 125 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 3: I know Bjay mentioned last week that he thought in 126 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 3: Katya was better. I would strongly disagree, and I think 127 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 3: you're kind of seeing that a little bit. The thing 128 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 3: that concerns me is, like, we know what we're getting 129 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 3: from Arsenal like they've been playing pretty much the same 130 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 3: eleven for the last pretty much all season. You know, 131 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 3: sub one guy here or there, But we don't know 132 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: what we're going to get from the city from a 133 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 3: lineup perspective, Like he played a back three today with 134 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: a ton of attackers on the field, Rodri Gundigan double pivot, 135 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 3: Rico Lewis benched and then played you know, three in 136 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 3: front of them, three in front of Roder and Gundigan 137 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 3: and then Holland up top. I think we may see 138 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 3: the same, But then you're asking a lot of you 139 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: of your wide center backs to guard flanks, and you're 140 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 3: asking a lot of you know guys like you know, 141 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 3: Marees to track back and defend or Debryna if he 142 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 3: depending on where he ends up in that formation, Grealish 143 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 3: getting back defensively. Like there's a lot of question marks 144 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 3: about it. Pep can really get away with being that 145 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,679 Speaker 3: aggressive on the road at Arsenal now if he wants 146 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 3: to go full tilt and try to outscore them. I 147 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 3: obviously don't like my under in that situation. So this 148 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 3: is going to be one of those games where I 149 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 3: kind of have to wait a little bit until we 150 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 3: get closer to game time and potentially even lineups. Let 151 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 3: the market settle, because I'm not quite sure where we'll 152 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 3: end up on this one. But in terms of just 153 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 3: like where I am on both of these teams, you know, 154 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 3: if you listen to this show every week, you know 155 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 3: that I'm still believe that Arsenal is not good enough 156 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 3: to be more than a goal better than their opponents 157 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 3: per ninety, which they've been in the first half. I 158 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 3: think regression comes there, but City's attack has been pretty 159 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 3: lackluster overall too. They had a good game today over 160 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 3: three expected goals over two and a half non penalty 161 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: good showing. Definitely was an an inspired performance, which you know, 162 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 3: I guess we could have expected after a couple of 163 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,679 Speaker 3: you know, Pep kept challenging them and tinkering the lineup. 164 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, I I struggle with this match. 165 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna feel forced to bet at We've got 166 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 3: Champions League on the same time, it'll be a great 167 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 3: day for the Triple box. But uh yeah, I kind 168 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 3: of agree with Leebov's angle too, though, Like a draw 169 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 3: isn't a bad result for either. 170 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 4: Side, and let's not forget the last two matches Marsenaal. 171 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 4: It's gonna be a completely different approach, right because they've 172 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 4: played two teams that play very very deep, low blocks 173 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 4: and looked to counter them. You know, City's probably gonna 174 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 4: control the majority of the possession. And even if we 175 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 4: go back to last year, I know it wasn't you know, 176 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 4: things are obviously very different right now. But Arsenal really 177 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 4: did outplay City for a large stretch of that match 178 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 4: at the Emirates. They counted them really, really well, and 179 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 4: then Gabrielle got a dumb red card, they got a 180 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 4: phantom pen City got a phantom penalty, and then from 181 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 4: there the match got flipped on its head and Rodger 182 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 4: scored to win two one. But I think if you 183 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 4: see a similar game plan for Marsenal, who can sit deep, 184 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 4: who does defend well and transition in encounter City who Yeah, anthey, 185 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 4: I agree with you, it's gonna be a very interesting 186 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 4: approach this pepco like what he did against Tottenham, which 187 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 4: was a very defensive approach, very afraid of getting hurt 188 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 4: on the counter, or does he go very attacking. I 189 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 4: think he probably wasn't very afraid of aston Villa countering them, 190 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 4: So yeah, it will be interesting to see what he does. 191 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 4: But yeah, it's gonna be you know, I don't. Yeah, 192 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 4: Arsenal's in bad form, but it's just a completely different 193 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 4: style of play and a completely different opponent in City 194 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: where they're gonna you know, Arsenal's gonna have to play 195 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 4: more defensive, which they did a good job of in 196 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 4: the last meeting. 197 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and going back to that January meeting, like I 198 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 3: think that that game was headed way toward and under. 199 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 3: I mean it was gonna be a one nil Arsenal 200 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 3: work like until the penalty. So they did a really 201 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: good job of suppressing City shots, which is something Tottenham 202 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 3: just did, which is something that Arsenal did a good 203 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 3: job of in the FA Cup. So you know, if 204 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 3: if City's gonna have a lot of stale possession, I 205 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 3: think it's interesting that, you know, you look at the 206 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 3: under also. I mean at this point, like Brentford and 207 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 3: Everton did a really good job pressing, I thought, and 208 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 3: I don't know that City is at that level of 209 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 3: energy off the ball. They have not been the same 210 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,719 Speaker 3: pressing team this year, so it'll be interesting. Of course 211 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 3: they're their dominant possession, but you know, with the impetus 212 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 3: being on the road favorite. This is an easy pass 213 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 3: for me. It's in terms of the side. 214 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I don't know if City's on everdence level. 215 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 2: I agree. 216 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 3: Let's move on to at least that day they weren't. 217 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: Let's move out to Champions League real quick. I'm gonna 218 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: run through the odds, of course, for my friends at 219 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: bet three six five. City at the top as a favorite, 220 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: clear favorite plus one seventy five byrons plus six fifty 221 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: phg eight to one. Those two teams play each other 222 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: Liverpool Madrid Napoli all ten to one, Chelsea sixteen, Spurs eighteen, 223 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: Benfica twenty eight to one, Enter thirty three to one, 224 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: Milan fifty, Dortmund fifty Leipzig interesting long shot. They would 225 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: be what forty to one, fifty to one if they 226 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: weren't playing City. I think in round of sixteen they're 227 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: one hundred to one, Porto one hundred to one, Frankfurt 228 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: one hundred to one. I'm Bruges fifty to one. I 229 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: think Frankfurt interesting as well. Let's move on to uh 230 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: We'll start with Milan and Spurs. Anthony's Tottenham. This is 231 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: the inconsistent Bowl Milan's plus one fifty five at home 232 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: on the three way line, Spurs plus one eighty the 233 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: draw plus two thirty the two advanced line. Milan a 234 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: slight underdog plus one twenty five Spurs minus one seventy five. 235 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: This is a classic Champions League matchup when you can 236 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: say neither one of these teams deserves. The fact that 237 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: one of these teams is going into the round or 238 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: the quarterfinals is a little bit of a shame because 239 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: of the way that they've played. But yet, you know, 240 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 1: you get in the hat. 241 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 2: That's all. 242 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: That's all you can ask for out. 243 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 2: Of your teams. 244 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: I kind of like Spurs here. I think that there's 245 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: kind of some fun narrative angles with Conte going back 246 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 1: to Italy here playing a style that should suit them, 247 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: with the kind of impetus being on Milan at home 248 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: to get ahead, I think that should play into their hands. 249 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: But it's so hard to trust either one of these teams. 250 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: Milan one two and three in their last six. That's 251 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: wind draw lost, Spurs, three wins, one draw for losses, 252 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: a win against City, losses to Arsenal City Leicester include 253 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: that Leicester game this weekend. It's just hilarious because it 254 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: looked like Spurs maybe we're about to start building something, 255 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: and the market would be like all right, like maybe 256 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: we can trust Spurs in the spot, but now look out, 257 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: Anthony anything here. 258 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 3: I would have loved Tottenham if I was smart, if 259 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 3: I were smart enough to bet it two weeks ago 260 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 3: when they were damn near plus a half. I would 261 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 3: love Tottenham plus a half in the spot. But as 262 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 3: a road slight underdog from a side perspective, no interest 263 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 3: in this match. It's funny, I tweeted on Saturday, like, 264 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 3: oh or Friday, you know, it's hard to see this 265 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 3: Milan team beating Spurs. And then Spurs went in and 266 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 3: put in a way worse performance than Milan did. But 267 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: there's a lot of question marks for both teams here. 268 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 3: First of all, Milan looks like they're getting some positive 269 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 3: injury news here. Tomory looks like he may be back. 270 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 3: Dennisair will be back. That's huge. I mean that's their 271 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 3: best defender and their best midfielder, their best ball stopper 272 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 3: in the midfield. Their defense is like falling off a 273 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 3: cliff in the last month, it's been terrible. Uh and 274 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 3: that's a huge red flag but like does Benissier, who's 275 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 3: their best deep line playmaker and their best ball winner, 276 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 3: improve their defense with to moryback two. They're also getting 277 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 3: bad goalkeeper play. Mec Manion's been out. The backup has 278 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 3: been really really bad at shot stopping and coming off 279 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 3: of his line and just making bad decisions. And now 280 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 3: Tottenham has a goalie problem. They have a midfield problem. 281 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 3: Benton Curves out for the season. They have a goalie 282 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 3: problem because Larise is out and I'm no Fraser Foster 283 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 3: fan at this point, and I don't think they're getting 284 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 3: They're not gonna get much out of him in terms 285 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 3: of plus shot stopping. So I mean, we know what 286 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 3: the Tottenham plan is. Uh, They're gonna sit deep and 287 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: they're gonna look the transition counter. And I think that 288 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: they are as a defense well shooted to do that 289 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: because they have, you know, defenders who are good without 290 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 3: the ball and good in defense and defending the penalty area. 291 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 3: Milan's not going to get transition, which is where they're 292 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 3: generally pretty good too, So I think this plays out 293 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 3: as a bit of a stalemate. I don't hate a draw, 294 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 3: don't hate an under same thing, But yeah, I mean 295 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 3: there's just so many question marks about these teams defensively 296 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 3: right now with the goalies. 297 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: I'll be j real quick. 298 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: I know you don't have much interest from a betting perspective. 299 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: This is the. 300 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: Easiest pass on the board. 301 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 4: I mean, there's so much inconsistency with both these teams that, Yeah, 302 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 4: this is just there's so many better matches in the 303 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 4: Champions League. 304 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just passing on this altogether. 305 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: Perhaps it's this one. PSG at home plus one sixty 306 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: two to Bayron Road favorite plus one forty five very 307 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: slight Road favorite, the draws plus two eighty Byron's minds 308 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: two hundred to advance PSG plus one fifty kind of 309 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: have talked a little bit in our league owned section 310 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: about PSG's injury issues and Bope, mess it looks like 311 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: Neymar should be all right for this one. I don't 312 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: mind backing Byron here. This is just it feels like 313 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: a classic PSG Champions League spot where they just their 314 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: journey just kind of ends, like you can almost always 315 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: see it coming with this team in this competition, and 316 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: it feels like this it just doesn't bode well. Yeah, 317 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's Byron here or nothing, Anthony, 318 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: I think most people will will be backing it to 319 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: be a little more back and forth, considering that two 320 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: attacks that we're looking at just unnamed value. 321 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 3: You're going the other way, Yeah, I'll be looking to 322 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 3: play PSG in the return leg for sure. I think 323 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 3: that they definitely present matchup advantages in this situation against 324 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 3: this Byron team. Like Byron as much as Nogosman tinkers 325 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 3: and like changes the plan and they do a lot 326 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 3: of different things. Like if you look on paper at 327 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 3: this team and you were to say, like where's Byron week, 328 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 3: and it would be that they can see quality shots. 329 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 3: I mean they just like are bottom five in the 330 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 3: Bundesliga and average shot xg per shot aloud, and they 331 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: tend to get broken open. And when you're playing in 332 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 3: bap Nymar and MESSI, that's like the worst possible nightmare 333 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 3: scenario combination. And they're especially going to be favored in 334 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 3: the second leg depending on how the first leg plays out, 335 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 3: Like they're minus more than minus a half in the 336 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: in the second leg, Like that's just gonna be PSG time. 337 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 3: I love that spot. But like in terms of we'll 338 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 3: talk about that in a month. But like this matchup, 339 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 3: I mean it looks like Messi's out and BAP's out, 340 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 3: and like that's pretty much most of the PSD attack. 341 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 3: I mean, they wanted to add depth in the transfer window, 342 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 3: they couldn't akatek and and Neymark can like be okay, 343 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 3: but like there's just not all that much talent on 344 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 3: this team. If you look at the eleven that they 345 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 3: started at Monaco on Sunday, like or Saturday, it was 346 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 3: just not a team that is going to go toe 347 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 3: to toe with Byron in the Champions League. Now, I 348 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 3: do think if we know anything about Gaultierras that he 349 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 3: can he can set them up defensively and make them 350 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 3: a defend team and and kind of get at this 351 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 3: you know, pretty overvalued Byron attack. Still like at the 352 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 3: other end of the pitch, Byron is still not getting 353 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 3: the same quality of shots that they were getting when 354 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 3: they had Lewandowski, even though Mucila is amazing and like 355 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 3: you know, Gannabry is amazing. Like they have great attackers, 356 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 3: but they don't get the same vocal, central located shots. 357 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 3: And so I think when they play at elite other 358 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 3: elite teams, you're going to see their defense, their attack struggle, 359 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 3: and you've kind of seen it. I mean when they 360 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 3: played Dortmund they scored two goals, but they didn't take 361 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 3: a shot until the fortieth minute. They finished with under 362 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 3: one and a half expected goals. They played Leipzig, they 363 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 3: scored once on less than one expected goal. Like, if 364 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 3: you're gonna play against the elite, elite, I think you 365 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 3: can see some flaws in this Bayern attack. So I 366 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 3: like the under three point twenty five. I bet that 367 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 3: three and a half if you found me in the app. 368 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 3: We bet that before the messy news, so it was 369 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 3: even better afterwards. This is just classic, like, oh, it's 370 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 3: gonna be back and forth. It's two great attacks, but 371 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 3: it's the first lag and especially with PSG not having 372 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 3: their guns now, like they're gonna sit and they're gonna 373 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 3: try to keep this within a goal. If they get 374 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 3: within a goal, then they're alive to go to go 375 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 3: to Byron in a month and win it with the 376 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,199 Speaker 3: talent they have. 377 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I uh, I find this very interesting because do 378 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 4: you guys want to take a quick guess how many 379 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 4: time with Byron's lost this season in all competitions, Just 380 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 4: just quick guess four less once. 381 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 3: I think they've only lost once, right, yeah. 382 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 2: Augsburg, but that all one. 383 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, But if you go back to the champions like 384 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 4: I understand it was a long time ago, I'll understand Saudiomani. 385 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 2: Was healthy for that a portion. 386 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 4: But they won every single match and the second leg 387 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 4: against Barcelona was very, very impressive. 388 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: It's a match I think we all think. I think 389 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 2: pretty much all of us were. 390 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 4: On Barcelona at that point, but Byron went in there, 391 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 4: they created two expected goals, they beat them three to nothing, 392 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 4: they created five big scoring chances against Now is one 393 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 4: of the best teams in the world. And I understand 394 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 4: they've drawn three times in the Bundesliga, but they've won 395 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 4: the expected goals battle in every single match outside of 396 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 4: the Wolfsburg match, out of the World Cup break, and 397 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 4: if you go through PSG in the past in these 398 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 4: type of champions like situations, I agree with you. Ay 399 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 4: Galtier went with a three to five to two against 400 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 4: Monaco on Saturday, so he can very easily drop that 401 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 4: into a five to three to two. 402 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 2: Play very very defensive. 403 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 4: And there's some interesting with the injury news on Messi 404 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 4: and and Boppe. They're trying to say, like there's some 405 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 4: positive news they might be fully fit. I'm not really 406 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 4: sure even if they aren't. Like we've seen it time 407 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 4: and time again from PSG. If those three on the 408 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 4: field together, they do very little to no defensive work. 409 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 4: So now you're trying to defend one of the best 410 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 4: attacking sides with a ton of great attacking wingers. I 411 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 4: understanding they don't out and out striker, but trying to 412 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 4: defend all of those wingers with seven eight outfield players 413 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 4: is a very, very difficult thing to ask, especially for 414 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 4: someone like Verazzi who's not entirely healthy right now. So 415 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 4: I have major major question marks about how PSG is 416 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 4: going to actually defend Bayern Munich. 417 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 2: It is the first leg. 418 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 4: They'll probably play more defensive, but yeah, if Messi and 419 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 4: and Pope are out, then that's just troublesome. I don't 420 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 4: know how they're gonna I mean, obviously they have nam 421 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 4: Aar e gud Take has been decent in spots this season, 422 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 4: but I mean, they played three teenagers against Monaca. Are 423 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 4: they're going to have to do that in this first 424 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 4: leg against Bayron Munich. I'm that is just troublesome. So 425 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 4: I like Bayron on the money line. Uh, if you 426 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 4: follow in the app, you know that I bet it 427 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 4: right when the bop end news came out that he 428 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 4: was gonna be out. 429 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: So it's dropped quite a bit, but I do think 430 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 2: there's still some value environmenticure in this first leg on 431 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: the money line. 432 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: An interesting strategy here too would be like if PSG 433 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: loses too one or one nail, then maybe backing them 434 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: with the future to win win the entire tournament, right like, 435 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: because you know, like the way that this draw sets up, 436 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: you're already going to be without that that would require 437 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: them to eliminate Byron, So that's one of the favorites out. 438 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: And then yeah, Madrid and Liverpool they're they're playing each other. Uh, 439 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: and then you have teams like Benfica playing Bruise, so 440 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: you're getting a soft team coming through to the quarterfinals. Uh. 441 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: You could even Chelsea even Chelsea Dorton, Chelsea Doorman, right, 442 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 1: so like that the yeah, yeah, so it's very very 443 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: open if you can get If you can get through Byron, 444 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: I think the numbers too short at eight to one 445 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: is what I'm trying to say. But if they do 446 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: fall behind, or if they even to win this leg, 447 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 1: then you can consider it because if they do get through, 448 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: if they come back and win and there they'll be 449 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 1: healthier for the second leg. The competition should really soften up. 450 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 2: Uh. 451 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: And that's kind of what the what I was saying 452 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: off the top with Leipzig, Right, it requires them a 453 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: one hundred to one to to beat City already, so 454 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: they've already done kind of the hardest part. And then 455 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: you're talking about City's gone when a Byron PSG has gone, 456 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: one of Liverpool and Madrid is gone. Uh, it's it's 457 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: gonna be wide open if one of these if there 458 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: is a little bit of chaos, uh in in the quarterfinals. 459 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 3: So you've got a napolete ticket, right, I do have 460 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 3: an It's just that is live and I think they're 461 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 3: overrated to now at like their serious prices. 462 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 2: You know, Frankfurt will come back from the grave. 463 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 3: And in a Champions League like this where like every 464 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 3: dominant team has a all the big boys have flaws. 465 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why the league is more interesting than Champions League. 466 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: We'll get there in a little bit. 467 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 3: Roman has already won it. 468 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Wednesday Dortmund Chelsea dortmun plus one fifty 469 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 1: at home Chelsea plus one e seven on the road 470 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: of the draws plus two thirty the two advanced Chelsea 471 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: minus won sixty three Dortmann plus one twenty. These odds, 472 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: of course for bet three six five last eight matches 473 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: for Chelsea two wins, four draws, two losses, eleven total 474 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: goals six four five against. Those six goals have come 475 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: on twelve and a half expected goals seven point six 476 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: allow expecta goles allowed, so a little little bit of 477 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 1: an overperformance on defense as well. But they didn't look 478 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: great against west Ham. I think west Ham is We've 479 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 1: talked about a very stout defense, So not not the 480 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: worst result in the world to get out of there 481 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: with the draw. Should Dortmund? Meanwhile, five on the spin, 482 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,959 Speaker 1: five wins on the spin since the World Cup, fifteen 483 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 1: goals scored five against ten point two expected goals created 484 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: in those five matches five and a half against this 485 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: this to win this lie, to win the tie over 486 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 1: two legs is going to require Chelsea to score because 487 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: Dortman is going to score. They've kind of shown us that, right. 488 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: Can you leg minus one sixty three on Chelsea to 489 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: advance here? I know, I think we all think that 490 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 1: they're kind of due for some regression positively offensively. I 491 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: think Graham Potter will eventually figure it out. They kind 492 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: of look like Brighton Potters Brighton teams from eighteen twenty 493 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: four months ago when they were creating and just couldn't finish. 494 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: I don't hate a look at Chelsea on the three 495 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 1: way line in the first leg to pull the upset, 496 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: but boy, I don't trust them over were two legs 497 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: to score enough to justify those odds. Anything for you, BJ, Yeah. 498 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 4: I don't hate to look at the over two and 499 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 4: a half goals in this match. So here's what's interesting 500 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 4: is that, so I am projecting two point nine two 501 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 4: goals for this one. But like you already mentioned, Chelsea 502 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 4: do for so much positive regression going forward. But the 503 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 4: Dortmand attack has been fantastic all season in the Bundesliga 504 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 4: and is only going to improve. 505 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 2: As we go along for the season. 506 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 4: So they're third in the Bundesliga non penaltic spect goals, 507 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 4: They've the second big second most big scoring chances, second 508 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 4: most box entries, and all of that is for a 509 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 4: majority of the season with Anthony modest as their main 510 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 4: out and out striker, which we've mentioned I don't know 511 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 4: five thousand times on this podcast. But now they have 512 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 4: Sebastian hall air A Demi is getting more involved in 513 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 4: the attack. So now a Chelsea team that I understand 514 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 4: Enzo Fernandez is good, but he doesn't make an entire team, 515 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 4: and you think he saw against west Ham that Chelsea 516 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 4: is still very, very vulnerable and transition defensively and especially 517 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 4: on set pieces as well. So I do think this 518 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:32,479 Speaker 4: is going to be a little bit of a back 519 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 4: and forth type match. And Dortmund has been pretty average 520 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 4: defensively in the Bundesliga as well, So with the Chelsea 521 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 4: attack having some positive regression going forward with it, with 522 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 4: the dormant attack already being great and already gonna be 523 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 4: even better going forward in this Like I mean, even 524 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 4: if you go through Dortmann's results and you look at 525 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 4: when they've played some of the best competition, they created 526 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 4: one point six against Byron, they had a great offensive 527 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 4: performance against Manchester City in both legs, So I think. 528 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 2: This is a back and forth type match. 529 00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 4: I do like over two and a half goals, which 530 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 4: you can find minus one oh five out there, so 531 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 4: I think we're gonna see some that positive aggression for 532 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 4: Chelsea and then the Dortman attack can definitely threaten this 533 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 4: Chelsea defense and transition. 534 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: Anthony anything for you real quick? 535 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a contrasting styles and it's gonna 536 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 3: be really interesting matchup. I mean, all four of these 537 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 3: matches this week I have projected pretty close to a 538 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 3: coin flip, So I am very much excited for this. 539 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 3: Like is not and I said this when the draw 540 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 3: came out, like it is not the best betting slate 541 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 3: in the world where I'm like chopping at the bit 542 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: to get down on like this team hammer Spot against 543 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 3: this team that I think is super overvalued or undervalued ever. 544 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 3: But this is an interesting tactical matchup because Chelsea wants 545 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: to play slow and Potter wants gain control. And you 546 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 3: know you talked about Brighton, Like what happened after Brighton 547 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 3: couldn't finish all their chances for a little while they 548 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 3: got good, But we also don't know what Chelsea is. 549 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I thought they played fine against west Ham, 550 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 3: and I aggregate they didn't really create much in the 551 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 3: second half, which is kind of concerning. They should have 552 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 3: had a penalty, but like should have had a penalty 553 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 3: in stoppage time on a bad chance doesn't mean like 554 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 3: oh should have won because you didn't really deserve it, 555 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 3: even though the call was obviously a handball. So it's 556 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 3: kind of tricky to say. But I think we don't 557 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 3: know what Chelsea is because they don't even know, Like 558 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 3: they're changing all these players in and like it could click, 559 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 3: could it clicked this week? I don't know. I'm kind 560 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 3: of skeptical, like this is the This is the easiest 561 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 3: passing on the board for me, because I don't really 562 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 3: know what we're getting from Chelsea. Dorman is finally getting 563 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 3: healthy too, but they're still kind of bad in transition. 564 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 3: I mean, their transition numbers are really poor this year. 565 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 3: They're bad defending set pieces, which is always a red 566 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 3: flag in these knockout tournaments. So like you can make 567 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 3: a case against for both teams. I don't really have 568 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 3: a strong opinion here. I will be interested in amount 569 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 3: a month when we get some more data on what 570 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: Chelsea looks like and what Dorman looks like with these 571 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,479 Speaker 3: teams being fully fit again and having new players, what 572 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 3: it will look like. Then these are the two teams 573 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 3: where like of the eight playing in this Round of 574 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 3: the sixteen. Playing in this round, I think in terms 575 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 3: of like, who is a team nobody's talking about that 576 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 3: could make a run, Probably these two and then and 577 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 3: then enter for me, like those are the three where 578 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, if things were to break, like this 579 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 3: team could be really dangerous in a year where there 580 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 3: is no dominant, dominant team at the top. 581 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 1: Finally, on Wednesday, Club Bruges They're here, They're ready to party. 582 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: Plus three twenty at home hosting Benfica. Odds on on 583 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: the three way line minus one eighteen. The draw is 584 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: plus two seventy five to advance. Bruges plus three thirty 585 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: three Benfica minus five hundred. This is kind of what 586 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 1: I was talking about, how Leipsig with their draw taking 587 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: on City. It's that's why they're one hundred to one 588 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 1: and Benfica twenty eight to one, because they are playing 589 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: the worst team in the Round of sixteen in their matchup. 590 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna bet Bruges on the three way line 591 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: and maybe bet them to advance. But it comes down 592 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: to a lot of times, I think, because Benfica was 593 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 1: really impressive in that group stage and they've been good 594 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: in the Portuguese League. We know that they're better than Bruges, 595 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: but we're still talking about a team from the Portuguese league. 596 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: There's a team from the Belgian league. It's in Belgium. 597 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: I think there's enough pointing to Bruges at this number, 598 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: and I don't want to get too wrapped up in 599 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: what we saw at a Benfica in in the group stage. 600 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: Like I said, it was good, but the group stage 601 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: was so weird all over the place, so I'm not 602 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: I'm not too thrilled laying juice with Benfica. But Bja, 603 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 1: you've been trying to. 604 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 2: Been trying to tell people, you've been trying to. 605 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,360 Speaker 1: Squash the bruge a long time. 606 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but long time. 607 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 4: They keep by the way, you guys. Do you guys 608 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 4: know who's managing. 609 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 2: Bruises right now? 610 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 4: Scottie Parker Harker is managing Bruies right now after getting 611 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,719 Speaker 4: fired from Bournemouth after Ergen klop assassinated him. 612 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 2: I don't see it at all. 613 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 4: I don't see with his Bruises team, even if you 614 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 4: look at the results coming out of the World Cup. 615 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 4: I understand the overperforming Champions League. I yelled that until 616 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 4: I was blue in the face, and it finally came 617 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 4: to fruition against enough bellow Portuguese side Porta, who pounded 618 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 4: them for nothing on the road. They've won one match 619 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 4: since since the World Cup break, one match in the 620 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 4: Belgian Pro League. They have a plus point three to 621 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 4: five expect to gold differential in the thirteenth most difficult 622 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 4: league in Europe. While Benefica, I understand they just lost 623 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 4: Enzo Fernandez and Anthony's gonna tell you he's their best 624 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 4: ball progressor and they're gonna lose that without him in 625 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 4: the middle of the pitch. But they're still at around 626 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 4: a plus two expect a goal differential per ninety minutes 627 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,239 Speaker 4: in the sixth most difficult league in Europe, and all 628 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 4: by the way they took care of business against lesser 629 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 4: competition in the Champions League in the group stage. 630 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 2: I do not see it. 631 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 4: I mean, even if you look at this Benefica attack, 632 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 4: they've only gotten better since the transfer window. They brought 633 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 4: in Guiatest from Wolves on loan. They still have Neris, 634 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 4: they have Gonzalos. Ramos scored a hat trick in the 635 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 4: World Cup. This team is unbelievable. This team is awesome. 636 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 4: They've been close to one and a half goals better 637 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 4: in a better league than Bruges, but yet they're only 638 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 4: minus one ten on the money line. What no, give 639 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 4: me Benefica minus one ten. 640 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 2: This is an all. 641 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 4: Great, great spot for Benefica, who's also been in great 642 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 4: form since Endo Fernandez has left. So they still have 643 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 4: gile Mario, who was a very capable central midfielder. So 644 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 4: let's not sit here and act like just because they 645 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 4: lost Enzo Fernandez, who has only been there for half 646 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 4: a season, that this team that has loads and loads 647 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 4: of talent is going to suddenly fall off in the midfield. 648 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 4: I don't see it at all. Oh, by the way, 649 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 4: and Andre Scott Olson and Judekua Judequa if that's how 650 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 4: you pronounce it, I apologize, are both questionable to play 651 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 4: in this match. Scott Olson their best midfielder and Judequo 652 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 4: was basically one of their best forward in this Champions 653 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 4: League run. So Benefica minus one ten. I do not 654 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 4: see it with this bruised team. They stink and they've 655 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 4: showed that all season long. But somehow Anthony's going to 656 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 4: buy into them. 657 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:42,479 Speaker 3: That's a Barsha legend. 658 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 2: Fair, Yeah, that's true. 659 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 3: You know, Look, I think we can look at like 660 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 3: the sample of games in the Champions League, and we 661 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 3: can say, like, oh, they're not actually a good team, 662 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 3: but like, let's consider what wins generally in these Champions 663 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 3: League situations. He's knockout tournaments. We've seen it before. You 664 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 3: don't need to have dominant underlying numbers in one match. 665 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 3: You need to have a system that is effective, a 666 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 3: good transitionability midfielders. They have a really young team. They 667 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 3: press effectively, like Bruges is the kind of underdog that 668 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 3: I want to get behind. And I understand that their 669 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 3: annoine numbers in Belgium have been bad, but it becomes 670 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 3: different in a Champions League vironment. Let's go back to 671 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 3: what they actually did in the Champions League, because yes, 672 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 3: they absolutely rode Menula, who was god mode in the 673 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: group stage, Like you can't deny that. But like, okay, 674 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 3: they played Porto twice. They didn't just play them once. 675 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 3: They played them twice. The first meeting, they waxed them 676 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 3: like there was some defensive areas, but stop again, but 677 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 3: two and a half over two and a half expected goals. 678 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 3: They sat deep, let them have the ball transition effectively. Yeah, 679 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 3: there was some defensive mistakes in there. But again four 680 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 3: no win on the road in Porto BJA only counts 681 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 3: the four no win uh that Porto got. They got three. 682 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 3: They in Bruges they played and their good home field. 683 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 3: They played Leverkusen twice, Levicusen mid table, you know German 684 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 3: team who's underperformed this season but hasn't been like they still. 685 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: You know, you could make the case that they're a 686 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 3: decent team. I won't later, but played Levercusin twice, held 687 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 3: them under one expected goal in both meetings, like this 688 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 3: is not a team who's just like a total SIV. 689 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 3: The only game where they got truly pounded was at 690 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 3: Lette in the second match, when yes they were very 691 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 3: very fortunate Minielee was standing on his head, but they 692 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 3: were eleven guys behind the ball defending for the point 693 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 3: because all they needed to advance was a point, and 694 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 3: the game never got out of a game state where 695 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 3: they had to do anything more or even attack, because 696 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 3: they had just beaten at Letti by the way at 697 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 3: home two weeks before. Now at Letti was minus one 698 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 3: fifteen at Bruges in the Champions League. And you know 699 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 3: BJ made the same case and he said, brush is 700 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 3: still bad. We've been saying Bruges is terrible all the time. 701 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 3: Maybe they'll be terrible on Wednesday, but catching a half 702 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 3: goal at home, I am very intrigued by this. This 703 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 3: midfield Noah Long one of one of the up and 704 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 3: coming guys you're gonna hear about in the future. I 705 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 3: would like it if Yuklo would play, say eight goals 706 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 3: and forrests. This year has been good, but we don't 707 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 3: know yet on that. But yeah, I will be on 708 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 3: Bruges plus a half. I'll go ahead to head with 709 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 3: bj We'll go, we'll go to battle. This kind of 710 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 3: reminds me the IAX situation from last year, where like 711 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 3: IX trucked everybody in the group stage. We're like, yes, 712 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 3: IXIX acts, but the market got a little inflated on them, 713 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: and I think that's a little bit of the case here. Like, yes, 714 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 3: Benfica is better than Club Bruises, but are they good 715 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 3: enough to be laying, you know, minus one fifteen on 716 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 3: the road at Bruges in the first leg of a 717 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 3: matchup they don't need to win, I don't think so. 718 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 3: So yeah, give me Bruges plus a half. We'll disagree. 719 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 3: I'm gonna fly in the face of of Benfica, who 720 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 3: look like impressive, very good, but yes, losing Endzo I 721 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 3: think does matter in this kind of matchup, especially when 722 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 3: you're playing a team wh wants to run in transition 723 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 3: and has the pieces to do it. Buchan and especially 724 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 3: like they have really fun transition attacking pieces, and that's 725 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 3: how they ripped apart ed LETTI ripped apart Porto with 726 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 3: some you know a little bit like pressing traps, spring spring, 727 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 3: a mistake, big chance, big chants. They're not gonna take 728 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 3: twenty shots. If they get eight and they score, I 729 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 3: think they're in good shape. 730 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: All right, let's quickly talk about the Europa League. There 731 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: is a clear headliner. Barcelona minus won forty three at 732 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,919 Speaker 1: home hosting Manchester United plus three twenty the draws plus 733 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: three twenty BARSA minus one seventy five against two advance 734 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: against United plus one twenty five. 735 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: The Red Devils are. 736 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: I think what the market is telling us here is 737 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: something pretty interesting, which is United is they're rolling right 738 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: like this team is. It's unrealistic to expect them to 739 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: win the Premier League, but they're in the kind of 740 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,879 Speaker 1: title race like when you're gonna see the graphic on 741 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: Peacock and NBC Sports ars there's gonna be Arsenal in 742 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: city and they're gonna show United they're close enough to 743 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: be on the fringe, and they've been rolling since October 744 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: and yet Barcelona's minus won seventy five to advance past them. 745 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: That tells you a couple of things. Perhaps United isn't 746 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: as good as they're giving credit for by the masses, 747 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: and the second thing is or maybe Barcelona's just that 748 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: good is both Barcelona? Are they one of the best 749 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,280 Speaker 1: teams in the world right now? Looks like it. I 750 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: really don't have anything here at BJ I'll flip it 751 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 1: to you. I feel like you've been looking at your 752 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: chops for the spot for a while. 753 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, definitely, I'm taking Barcelona minus one forty Barcelona, 754 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,280 Speaker 4: I mean before the city and I'll put on three 755 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 4: point what nine expected goals against Aston Villa today. Barcelona 756 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 4: had taken over the top spot in Euro's top five 757 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 4: leagues and expected gold to financial per ninety minutes. And 758 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 4: they are absolutely rolling right now. They're unbeaten out of 759 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 4: the World Cup break. They've won seven to the last 760 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 4: nine matches. 761 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 2: And listen, this is another. 762 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 4: Situation where very similar to I kind of see this 763 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 4: as you know how United played against both City and 764 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 4: against Arsenal. Where United it's gonna sit deep, they're gonna 765 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 4: play a low block. But the same the trap that 766 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 4: Shavi's not gonna fall into, which is the pet the 767 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 4: trap that Pep fell into, was that United did such 768 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 4: a good job at closing off the middle of the 769 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 4: pitch because their low block is very effective and it 770 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 4: is very good. What Barcelona's been doing is they've been 771 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 4: built holding out in a four to four shape, so 772 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 4: essentially they are creating a lot more whip with Rafina 773 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 4: Pedrie Gavi and creating more space for Lewandowski in the middle. 774 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 4: So I think they're gonna be able to attack United 775 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 4: in wide areas because whereas United weakest at their fullbacks 776 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 4: who don't defend as well as other places on the pitch. Obviously, 777 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 4: Casamira will be back for this match, which is very 778 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 4: very big, especially given the last two matches against the Leeds. 779 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 4: Obviously they did not deserve to beat Leeds today on Sunday, 780 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 4: not at all. I mean, leads upgrade than one point 781 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 4: eight two point nine, and I think this is just 782 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 4: a really really good Barcelona spot and guess what. The 783 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 4: matches are starting to stack up for Manchester United. Now 784 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 4: we're going on three weeks where they've been playing two 785 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 4: to three matches per week now and now you have 786 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 4: to go on the road to Barcelona in the midweek 787 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 4: after coming off back to back matches against Leeds. 788 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't see it. I have Barcelona projected 789 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:56,800 Speaker 2: at minus two seventeen. 790 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 4: I truly believe that this Barcelona team right now, the 791 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,760 Speaker 4: way they're playing, are the best team in the world. 792 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 2: And I think it's going to be very, very. 793 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 4: Difficult for United if they couldn't really keep Arsenal out. Obviously, 794 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 4: Casimiro wasn't there for that match, and even the match 795 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 4: against City City tilted the field on them. 796 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 2: I get it. 797 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 4: They didn't create a lot of expected goals and they 798 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 4: didn't play a lot through the middle, but if they 799 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 4: played the ball, you saw it. Anytime that City wanted 800 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 4: to play the ball out wide, there were just acres 801 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 4: and acres of space, and if you want to give 802 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 4: Rafina and other guys that had much space, good luck. 803 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 2: So I like Barcelona minus one forty. 804 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 1: Anthony got I think here. 805 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna play Barsa, but in a different way. 806 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 3: I'm going to play too advance. If you shop around 807 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 3: you could find minus one forty forty five out there. 808 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 3: I like that a lot. Now here's the thing. This 809 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 3: is not like the Champions League were they're gonna have 810 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 3: a month in between matches. This is this Thursday and 811 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 3: next Thursday. So they're going to Manchester next week. You 812 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 3: mentioned the match pile up. It is a problem. Ted 813 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:54,399 Speaker 3: Hawk is not rotated really at all. He played some 814 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 3: really interesting lineup decisions, you know, second leg against nodding 815 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,399 Speaker 3: him at home, like playing his best players. Fac didn't 816 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:04,240 Speaker 3: really rotate. Then had the midweek match. Consecutive matches against 817 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 3: Leeds which are very physical, very high tempo matches. United 818 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 3: did not play that well in this match at all. 819 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 3: I thought, you know, for eighty minutes Leads was clearly 820 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 3: the better team. They took ten penalty box shots to three. 821 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 3: I think it was in the end not a competitive match, 822 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 3: but they did have the finishing and then they you know, 823 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 3: the subs changed the game. You know, Lissandra coming in 824 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 3: does make United a lot better. But they will play 825 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 3: the second leg next Thursday in Manchester, three days before 826 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 3: a cup final, so you know it is expected that 827 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 3: United will have one eye on that. Now. I don't 828 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 3: know what ten Hog will do. He may not rotate 829 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 3: at all. It may depend on how the first leg goes. 830 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 3: But I think it's interesting for United, who's in a 831 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 3: solid position in the top four and has a chance 832 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 3: at the trophy on Sunday first under ten Hog, to 833 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 3: then go all out in the second leg. Here Now, 834 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 3: we'll talk about this match again next week, like the 835 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 3: return fixture. I don't really trust Barcelona still like to. 836 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 3: I think they're a little bit over in in this matchup, 837 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 3: but I do like them next week at United. So 838 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna take the minus one forty forty five 839 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 3: on to advance. 840 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, and let's not forget like United has been playing 841 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 4: much better at Old Trafford than they have away from home, 842 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 4: Like not even counting today, they were still in a 843 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 4: negative expected gold the French away from home Barsa. They're 844 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 4: at plus one point eight expected gold of French all 845 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 4: at Camp New and La Liga this season. So and like, 846 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 4: I get it if you go back to the Champions 847 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 4: League that they got pounded by Bayern Munich like at home, 848 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 4: but Manchester United it's not Bayern Munich. So yeah, this 849 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 4: is a great, great Barcelona spot who will be without 850 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 4: boost guts. But again, since Barcelona basically bought what ten 851 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 4: eleven guys in the summer transfer window, they. 852 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,959 Speaker 2: Have plenty of death to get through this type of match. 853 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 2: Pile up. 854 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, let's real quick thirty seconds each another Europa 855 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: League bet? You want to throw out their BJ Yeah, 856 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: let's go. 857 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,479 Speaker 4: Rama dron O bet minus one twenty on the road 858 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 4: against Salsburg. 859 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 2: We've all now, if you're. 860 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 4: Just on this podcast, you haven't heard of say it. 861 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 4: We have all bet Rama three to one to win 862 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,799 Speaker 4: the Europa League. That is a wonder goal grouper. So 863 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 4: if you haven't bet it, bet it right now. But 864 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 4: I don't think there's any reason that Roma should be 865 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 4: a pick him in this match. So we've already talked about. 866 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 2: How great Jose Mourinho's team is. 867 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 4: There at a plus one point zero six expected gold 868 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 4: differential per ninety minutes, just out created Leche one point 869 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 4: seven to point three over the weekend, but you're then 870 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 4: one to one. What makes them so good is teams 871 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 4: just cannot get in their penalty area. Like Jose is 872 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,319 Speaker 4: not providing much resistance, but their final third entry to 873 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 4: box entry conversion rate allowed is only around nineteen percent, 874 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 4: which is on par with basically the best in all 875 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 4: of Europe. And they're only allowing point seven to two 876 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 4: non penaltygue expected goals per match. And it's been a 877 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 4: while since we've obviously talked Champions League or Europa League, 878 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 4: but Brummel was awesome in the Europa League. Like they 879 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 4: had a plus eight point five expected goal differential in 880 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 4: the group stage. They were very unlucky to finish the 881 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 4: second behind. 882 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,919 Speaker 2: Real Bettis and Salzburg. Listen. 883 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 4: They had good performances against a cy Milan and Chilly 884 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 4: in the Champions League, but the Austrian Bundesliga just returned 885 00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 4: on the February eleventh, so they've only played one match 886 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 4: now and now they got to go host Roma, who's 887 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 4: been one of the best teams in Syria. Ah And honestly, 888 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 4: Salzburg hasn't been that dominant in the Austrian Bundesliga as 889 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:13,760 Speaker 4: they have been in years past. They're at a plus 890 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 4: zero point eighty three expected gol differential per ninety minutes, 891 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 4: when the past two years they've been above plus one 892 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 4: point one. So I think this is a great spot 893 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 4: here for Romo, who I've projected at minus one seventeens, 894 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,760 Speaker 4: so give me them Jowno bet at minus one twenty. 895 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that came in just under thirty seconds, Anthony, we're 896 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: waiting a half. 897 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 3: Here, Monico plus a half at Leverkusen. These two teams 898 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 3: are pretty much even for me, and Leverkusen has pretty 899 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 3: middling numbers in the Bundesliga, like they've been an average 900 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 3: German team this year. Monica, meanwhile, has really turned up 901 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:45,919 Speaker 3: the juice in the last couple of weeks, a couple 902 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 3: of months even and has just a much better inform attack. 903 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 3: Flourya and Verts coming back for Leverkusen will make them better. 904 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 3: But I still think this is close to a coin flip. 905 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 3: So I take the plus a half on Monico first. 906 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: Leg, and as we just said, get those Roma Europa 907 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,719 Speaker 1: League bets in. And also I would advise you to 908 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: pick a long shot in the Champions League as well, whether. 909 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 2: It's our other group. 910 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: For me, yeah, Teripig one of those. 911 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna bet Enter before before they play Portal. 912 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,439 Speaker 3: I like their matchup with Porto two. 913 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: I do buy them, and with that leave you alone 914 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 1: to enjoy this upcoming week Champions League and of course 915 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: City and Arsenal a title six pointer.
