All right, I'll 51 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 1: turn it over to you quickly, by. I just want 52 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: to give you a place to jump off from. According 53 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: to OPTA, sure, and I know that strength of schedule 54 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: is definitely a thing here. But according to our friends 55 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: at OPTA, Everton have more expected points than Liverpool this season. 56 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: Mm hmm so. 57 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: They also they also, Michael, have more expected goals than 58 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: Manchester City and that's not a joke. You can go 59 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 2: look it up. Yeah, this is uh, this is an 60 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 2: interesting one, Michael, and I think what's most interesting is 61 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: what is Sean Deitsch going to do. From a tactical 62 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: point of view. We've seen Everton this season obviously has 63 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: played the weakest strength of schedule of anybody. Through eight matches. 64 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: They've come up. They've tried to disrupt build up play. 65 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: They've done a great job forcing high turnovers treating those 66 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: transitional opportunities. But and they did with great success against Burnemouth. 67 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: That was a fantastic match right before the international break. 68 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 2: But are they really going to try and come in 69 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 2: high press Liverpool. I don't know if that's the strategy 70 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: that Dyke is gonna go with because we've seen it 71 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: once so far. Everton has played one top tier team 72 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: and it's been Arsenal, and that match was very, very 73 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: boring because Sean Diych decided to sit back, go kind 74 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 2: of back to his old ways. Everton allowed over in 75 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 2: ninety percent build a completion percentage, eighteen passes per defensive 76 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 2: action and five high turnovers in that one. Not a 77 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: typical what we've seen so far from Everton. So I 78 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 2: question if Dytch is going to go back to his 79 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 2: old ways four or five to one mid block and 80 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 2: kind of just sit back a little deeper than what 81 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: he has been doing so far. But with that being said, 82 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 2: Liverpool is a much much different team than Arsenal. Arsenal's 83 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: slow build up control, possession control pace. Liverpool is high intensity, 84 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,679 Speaker 2: quick transitions and trying to get the ball moving forward 85 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: as fast as possible. So you may not necessarily see 86 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 2: Everton high press, but I think you'll a lot of 87 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: pressing traps being set in their mid block trying to 88 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 2: catch Liverpool out, a position which can work against Liverpool. 89 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: Teams have been successful against it. In Liverpool. I mean 90 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 2: they've been very, very good offensively. I mean the numbers 91 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 2: are off the charts. The last time they played Everton, 92 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: when Sean Dysch was in charge, they beat Everton two nothing, 93 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 2: created two point three expected goals and they're the only 94 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: team so far in the Premier League to create a 95 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: big scoring chance in every single match. And that is 96 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: all wonderful, but there are still so many problems defensively 97 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 2: for Liverpool and it starts what we say every single 98 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: time is they don't have a ball stopper in the 99 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 2: middle of the pitch. Curtis Jones is still suspended for 100 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: this match, so that means that you're just gonna probably 101 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: see Alexis McCallister and a makeshift sixth role. Probably Liverpool's 102 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: staying more compact, which is actually good for Everton because 103 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: how have they created a lot of their chances this season? 104 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 2: Getting the ball out wide and swinging and crosses. They 105 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 2: have swung in one hundred and seventy seven crosses this 106 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 2: season and that's second most in the Premier League and 107 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: Liverpool's allowing the eleventh most processes into their penalty area. 108 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: So Everton came without a doubt, you know, create chances 109 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 2: against Liverpool in transition. I just hope that the pace 110 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: of the match is fast enough and quick enough for 111 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: this to be end to end style. And also one 112 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 2: more thing. Everton and is typically the sean ditch team, 113 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: but they've been very good on set piece this season 114 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 2: four point three to three expected goals created off as 115 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 2: set pieces. That's second most in the Premier League, Liverpool 116 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 2: thirteenth and x g per set piece allowed. So I 117 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: like both teams to score here. I think we're gonna 118 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: have a end to end style match. I think minus 119 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 2: one fifty is a tad low. I projected little over 120 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 2: minds two hundred for both teams to score here. I 121 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: just really hope Ditsche doesn't go back to those old 122 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 2: ways and tries to you know, really stay impact and 123 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 2: really try to frustrate Liverpool and make them, you know, 124 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: circulate the ball from end to end and try to 125 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 2: do it that way. But again, one more thing about Liverpool. 126 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 2: We're coming off international break. This is a twelve thirty kickoff. 127 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: I'm sure Clop's gonna be complaining all week about it 128 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 2: and before the match and after the match and everything. 129 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: Liverpool's got quite a few guys traveling from South America 130 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: all the way back to Liverpool to play this match, 131 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 2: so there could be some tired legs for Liverpool. So 132 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 2: if you want to play a side in this one, 133 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 2: the value is definitely on Everton. We've only seen it 134 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 2: once against the top tier competition, so I just kind 135 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 2: of worry what's gonna happen when they played this Liverpool team. 136 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: But again, I think it's a good matchup for them. 137 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: I think it's a good end to end style match 138 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: if Everton continues to play the way that they have, 139 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: So both teams to score for me a minus one 140 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 2: fifty and I'll be sprinkling the Everton money line as well. 141 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll be on Everden on the money line the 142 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: past oh maybe eight twelve Merseyside Darby's at no post. 143 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: Angelotti like, the question was will Everton be able to 144 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: just sit back, absorb enough and get lucky. Yeah, that 145 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: was the path to success, and that's even true with 146 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: Deutsche last year. And now there's actually a way that 147 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: everybody could win this game themselves, like with the way 148 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: they've been playing, like they can actually go out and 149 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: take the game. They've shown it. I think it's pretty 150 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:18,239 Speaker 1: clear that Everton are a bit underrated per their actual 151 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: results for six, their underlying statistical portfolio, and like you said, 152 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: I think that the spot definitely favors them. I guess 153 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: a Liverpool team that's just been leaky and this Everden 154 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: team has just been creating a ton of scoring chances. 155 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: So I think that this is an actually a really 156 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: good bet on Everden. 157 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. And one more thing that that last match that 158 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 2: they played where Liverpool kind of dominated them to nothing. 159 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 2: I mean Ellis Sims was playing up top forever too. 160 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and they were in a they were 161 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: in like the depths of a relegation battle, like where 162 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: you're you're ethos and your philosophy of playing a game 163 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: is very different because you're just doing everything. You can't 164 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: just rape out of point in that in that math. 165 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 2: And Everton one of the few teams in the Premier 166 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 2: League that's like very healthy right now. I mean, I 167 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: know we're knocking on wood obviously, but I mean they're healthy, 168 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: they have everybody available, so it's a good spot for them. 169 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, with you seven, that's the seventh thir and the 170 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: am kick off another underdog. I like ten am Manchester 171 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: City and minus two seventy five hosting Brighton six to 172 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: one and the draw is plus four fifty. I know 173 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 1: that this can be one way traffic when these two 174 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: teams meet. However, the City attack, I mean you said 175 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: you just said that everdence creating more expected goals than 176 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: City to start the year. The City attack leaves this 177 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: door open because Brighton's attack has just been so good. 178 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, the Brighton defense is can be a nightmare 179 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: every now and then, and we've seen them get pasted 180 00:09:54,880 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: a couple of times already this season, but they punch 181 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: ups so well. They're legitimately one of the best teams 182 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: in all of Europe. If you were to create a 183 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: twenty team league of the best teams in Europe, like 184 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: Brighton's in that league, I think you can go even 185 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: further than that. And you're getting six to one. I 186 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: know they're on the road, but I just this is 187 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: this team is always worth a look when you get 188 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: this kind of price, especially with the way City is 189 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: not playing teams off the pitch at the moment, and 190 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: another situation where you've got a lot of people traveling 191 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: in off of like European qualifiers and all that kind 192 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: of noise. 193 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so I'm I'm going to pass on this 194 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 2: one unless the price gets a little better. There are 195 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 2: some positive signs for Brighton in this one, and one 196 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 2: thing I think they can really attack City with is 197 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 2: long balls instead of using essentially from their build up. 198 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 2: They're obviously going to build out of the back, but 199 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 2: once they get the ball to their center backs, I 200 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 2: think you actually might see quite a few long balls. 201 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,599 Speaker 2: Brighton has the second best long ball completion percentage in 202 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 2: the Premier League and Cities allowing the third highest, so 203 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: there can be some space available, especially on the wings 204 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 2: if you know bright What Brighton likes to do obviously 205 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: is overload the central parts of the of the pitch, 206 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 2: and pep guard Guardiola obviously knows that, so City will 207 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: probably play a little bit more compact and I don't think 208 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 2: you see them pressing very high, and especially against Arsenal City. 209 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: A lot of the match was just kind of sitting 210 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 2: off and not really trying to press Arsenal High. I 211 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 2: think they were a little afraid if they did that 212 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 2: they would have gotten a little too exposed. And I 213 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 2: think they might have the same problem here. So Mitoma 214 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: and March on the wings will should have, you know, 215 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 2: a lot of space to roam. The one worry with 216 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 2: Brighton is obviously they've been very bad defensively and one 217 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 2: thing that they've kind of struggled with especially it's very 218 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 2: very evident this season again when they're facing teams that 219 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: have big, powerful forwards, their center backs. If you know, 220 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: obviously Lewis Dunk's an incredible center back, but the other 221 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: center backs really haven't been able to cope with them. 222 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 2: If you look, you know, if you go back through 223 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: like when they played west Ham, mckel antonio just completely 224 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: bossed Adam Webster for large portions of that match and 225 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: created two of the goals against west Ham. So Holland 226 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 2: is you know, he's been a little quiet lately and 227 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: you know he could have a big game here. But 228 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 2: the one thing about City and their attack. I tweeted 229 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: this out today and it's you know something I mentioned 230 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: a lot on this podcast, which is final third of 231 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 2: box entry conversion rate, which I think can tell us 232 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: a lot of different things. In the case of a 233 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: team like Manchester City offensively, whatever their percentage is can 234 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 2: tell us how effective they are at breaking down teams 235 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 2: that want to sit in low blocks. No, Brighton's not 236 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: going to do that. But they're dead last in the 237 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 2: Premier League. About twenty five percent of their final third 238 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: entries turn into box entries. Now have they have like 239 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: eighty final third entries a match. So it's not like 240 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 2: it's a it's a crazy number, but it does tell 241 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 2: us that, you know, maybe they haven't been as effective 242 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: as they have been in years past and doing that. So, yeah, 243 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 2: I just worry a little bit here Brighton. There they've 244 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: been bad in transition defensive moments, so if they turn 245 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: them ball over high here, it could get bad. But yeah, 246 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 2: if you're gonna take Brighton, take them on the money line, 247 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: like take the shot on, then don't take them on 248 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 2: the spread because it could get really bad, or it 249 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: could or they could obviously come out and create a 250 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: ton of chances and get out the city defense. But yeah, 251 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: so if you're gonna take anything. Brighton on the money 252 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 2: line is definitely the player, So I agree with you. 253 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's a good point. On to Chelsea 254 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: and Arsenal. No, I should note that Anthony he liked 255 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: the both teams to score in the first half of 256 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: the Merseyside derby Liverpool and Evident, and he liked he 257 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: leans towards the under in Brighton and City under three 258 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: and a half. He also likes the under here in 259 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: Chelsea and Arsenal. Chelsea's plus two ten, Arsenal plus went 260 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: thirty and the draw is plus two forty. You know, 261 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: some of their national breaks are just much needed, and 262 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: this one certainly was. I felt like it's such a 263 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: slog benning Premier League and soccer and it just you 264 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 1: need that breather. Sometimes there are some international breaks that 265 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: you wish never came. But this went definitely appreciated, and 266 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: it was because I went into it with that Liverpool 267 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: excuse me. The City Arsenal game had the nil nail 268 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: ten to one. Yeah, lost it there at the end. 269 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: I know that was a good result for you in 270 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: your heart, but guess what, I'm going right back to 271 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: the nil nail here and Chelsea and Arsenal. Yeah, this game, 272 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: who's scoring? 273 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 2: I know, want to score. 274 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: I think both teams would be like, I'm totally okay 275 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: with that, Like we don't need to show up, get 276 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: a point, go home, everyone's healthy exactly. 277 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 2: I think I think it's match is gonna play out 278 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: very similarly to how the City and Arsenal match played out, 279 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 2: and it brought me. The City Arsenal match brought me 280 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 2: back to a quote that I read a while back 281 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 2: from Julian Naglesman, where he basically somebody asked him is like, 282 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 2: there has there ever been like a perfect football match, 283 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 2: and he was like no, because football is inherently about mistakes, 284 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: Like people pay tickets to go watch defensive very incredibly 285 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 2: rarely do teams score when the defense doesn't make a mistake. 286 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: So that's essentially what you saw from Arsenal and Manchester City. 287 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 2: It was two teams were not going to allow the 288 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 2: other to play through the middle of the pitch. They 289 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 2: wanted to be solid defensively, and the pace was incredibly slow. 290 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: And I think that's what you're going to see here 291 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 2: is that Arsenal, especially now that they have declan rice, 292 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 2: they are able to control the pace of matches and 293 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: a match like this they are going to play very 294 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: very slow and try to build out of the back 295 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: and I'm not so sure. I mean, Chelsea has good 296 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: pressing numbers right now, like they're believe they're sitting in 297 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 2: the top five and pass per defensive action and high 298 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 2: turnovers and everything like that, but they're along, you know, 299 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: the same lines of Everton. They haven't played really any 300 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 2: difficult competition whatsoever. I mean the best team that they've 301 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 2: played was match week one against Liverpool. Ever since then 302 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: it's been west Ham, Luton, Forrest, Bournemouth, Aston Villa, Fulham 303 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 2: and Burnley. Like it's been a very very easy schedule. 304 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 2: So I highly doubt they're going to come out and 305 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 2: just relentlessly press Arsenal and try to struck their build 306 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 2: up play. I feel like they're gonna sit off quite 307 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: a bit, try to set some pressing traps and Arsenal 308 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: probably knows that. So it's gonna be very very slow. 309 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 2: But the Arsenal thing is the thing is is I 310 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 2: know Anthony would have loved to come on here and 311 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 2: talk about how terrible the Arsenal offense is and there 312 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 2: are some concerns with it. We probably should be playing 313 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 2: gabriel Jyzeus as a nine. They've just had some injuries 314 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: that they've had to deal with. But the biggest thing 315 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 2: with the Arsenal is their defense has been outside of city. 316 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 2: I'd say like the second best in the world right now. 317 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 2: They've allowed two big scoring chances the entire season and 318 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: only point eight two nine penalty x CHIEP for ninety minutes. 319 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: And it comes down to guys being healthy. You know, 320 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 2: last season towards the end, Saliba got hurt, Zenchinko got hurt, 321 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: and they didn't have their usual back four. When they 322 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 2: play their back four of Ben White, Saliba, Gabrielle and Zinchenko, 323 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: they're incredible. Like they're allowing around that point eight nine 324 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 2: penalty x GIP for ninety So yeah, and a Chelsea, 325 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I understand that they've underperform their x g again, 326 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 2: but there's still like tenth and through that easiest schedule, 327 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: So yeah, I agree with you. The nil nil I'm 328 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 2: playing under two and a half at minus one ten 329 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: I do. I mean, I'm projecting two point seven goals 330 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: for this, but that's taking a lot of prior data 331 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 2: and given what we've seen so far this season. I've 332 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 2: highly doubt this match is going to be incredible back 333 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 2: and forth. And the one more thing is even if 334 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: somebody scores first, I don't see this match just completely 335 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 2: opening up and being like this end end stock a week. 336 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: And I don't know if they'd get the ten goals 337 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 1: in this one. I say that now five yeah, yeah, 338 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: Like I said, Anthony likes the under He also suggested 339 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,360 Speaker 1: a sprinkle on Arsenal team total under half a goal 340 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: of plus three thirty. 341 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 2: So don't do that. 342 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: We're all on the same page here. We're on the 343 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: same page. Bourne and Wolves. Anthony says he thinks he 344 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: would play Bourne, just have to be a bit of 345 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: a better number there plus one thirty seven at home, 346 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 1: so they're favored, as well as are traveling as a 347 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 1: plus two hundred underdog and the Jaws plus two forty. 348 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: These odds, of course, are from bet three six five 349 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 1: and yeah. I think this one is pretty easy to 350 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: move along. 351 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 2: From it is, And the only thing I would tell 352 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 2: is people, if you want to chase something like over 353 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 2: four and a half is like five to one, or 354 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: over five and a half is like eleven to one. 355 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,679 Speaker 2: I could see they're just being absolute complete chaos in 356 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: this match. These two teams i'd say are the biggest 357 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: chaos teams in terms of I mean Bournemouth they kept 358 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 2: trying to build out of the back against Everton and 359 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 2: they just kept turning it over again and again and 360 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 2: again and again. And they're going to continue to keep 361 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 2: doing that. So Wolves will press high occasionally. They've been 362 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 2: setting good mid blocks. They're a good transition team. Nato 363 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 2: has been incredible. So if you want some chaos, I 364 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: think this could potentially be one of the bigger chaos 365 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 2: matches in the weekend. 366 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: Now. 367 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 2: I wouldn't play over two and a half of minus 368 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: one thirty five. I think the probably playing that as 369 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: straight is little too. It's pricey, but you want to 370 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: chase something over five and a half and eleven to one, 371 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 2: I think it's the play. 372 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 1: We love chaos on this show, and you know what 373 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: everyone else loves compliments and compliments are guaranteed.

You know what else we 397 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: love is Brentford, At least usually not when they're minus 398 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: one twenty five, although one of us might be playing 399 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: them here. They are odds on against Burnley who are 400 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: traveling plus three thirty three and the draws plus three 401 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: eighty another one I was happy to pass. 402 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: On, you know. I looked at this and it kind 403 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: of was an immediate pass for me. And then I 404 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: started to dig in a little deeper and deeper and deeper, 405 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 2: and I came out actually liking the BS at minus 406 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: one twenty five. I mean, I do project them at 407 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 2: minus one fifty. They've come down a little bit from 408 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 2: where they were. They opened around minus forty and now 409 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 2: they've come down a little bit and I just don't 410 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 2: really see it with Burnley at the moments. I mean Burnley, 411 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 2: if it wasn't for Sheffield United, they will They would 412 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 2: have created the fewest to expect goals of anybody six 413 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 2: point five in their first eight matches. They continue to 414 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 2: try to build out of the back. It's not working. 415 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 2: They constantly turned the ball over against Chelsea, That's why 416 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 2: they lost. Created numerous transitional opportunities. And Brentford, while they're 417 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 2: not the type of team that's going to come out 418 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 2: and press high, they love to press in their own 419 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 2: final third. I mean they are fifth and pass per 420 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 2: defensive action and fourth and opponent build up completion percentagell owed. 421 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 2: So they can cause a lot of problems for Burnley 422 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 2: once they get into the final third and create those 423 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 2: transitional opportunities. Burnley they've been bad in transiit defense because 424 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 2: they keep turning the ball over high their nineteenth and 425 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 2: final third a box entry conversion rate allowed Brentford second 426 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 2: and expected threat fourth and final third to box entry 427 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 2: conversion rate. So a very very good transition team, as 428 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 2: we know many many times. And another thing that Vincent 429 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 2: Company has done is, you know, typically when he came 430 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 2: into the Premier League of what he's been doing for 431 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 2: a lot of it is pressing Manda Man out of 432 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 2: a four to four to two out of possession and 433 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 2: it hasn't worked like they consistently get played through and 434 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: they've given up a ton of goals. So against Chelsea, 435 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 2: he switched to a passive four to one four to 436 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 2: one mid block. But what happened was is because he 437 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 2: set up his team and the personnel that he had 438 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 2: to play a certain style, switching to play a more 439 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 2: passive style didn't work either. It gave Chelsea too much time. 440 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 2: They played right through them, got the ball wide and 441 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 2: created a bunch of chances that way end up scoring 442 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: four goals. So I don't think either approach is going 443 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: to work here against Brentford. If they decide to play passive, 444 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 2: Brentford can very easily play a four to three to 445 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 2: three and build out of the back. They've done it 446 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: many times against Leicster competition. Or if Burnley tries to 447 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 2: press them high, well, BRender will just send long balls 448 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 2: up the pitch and get the ball to Wison and 449 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 2: Weemo in one v one situations against the opposing center back. 450 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: So it's a weird situation that Burnley is in here. 451 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 2: So and Brentford one more thing since the start of 452 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 2: last season when they played teams in the bottom half 453 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 2: of the table at home at the Brentford Community Stadium plus 454 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 2: nine point three expected goal differential and thirteen matches, So 455 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to take the Bees and minus one twenty five. 456 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: I mean, I project a little bit of value on it, 457 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 2: and I think there are still some problems here with 458 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 2: Burnley that haven't been sorted out yet, and so until 459 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 2: I see it, I'm going to continue to fade Burnley Yeah. 460 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: I think you can make the argument that Burnley had 461 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 1: been Yeah, well United, Burnley had been up there and 462 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: near the top of the table for the most disappointing 463 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 1: team at least from the kind of relegation blob that 464 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: we were talking about before the season. They were much 465 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: hyped and they have failed to meet it. Onto Newcastle 466 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: and Palace. Newcastle's minus two to twenty three at home, 467 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: Palace traveling is six to one underdogs and the draw 468 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 1: is three to one and a little bit north three 469 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,439 Speaker 1: to one. These are the kind of numbers I like 470 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: that in Palace set like you just you know you're 471 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: going to get a professional effort. You know that Roy 472 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: Hodgson is gonna set them up to yep, for lack 473 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: of a better word, to stay in the game as 474 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: long as they can, like against an opponent like this 475 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: on the road, hostile environment. Newcastle, they are on song 476 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: at the moment, just absolutely buoyant. After the I mean 477 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: they draw, they did, they did play to a draw 478 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: going into the break, but you know, the win over 479 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: PSG at home, it's and just there formed before that 480 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 1: it was a three and a three in a row, 481 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: and then you in the league and you throw the 482 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: PSG match on top. But Palace are the team like House, 483 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: are the type of team that can just snuff that 484 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: out because they're just gonna come there. They're gonna be organized, 485 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: they're gonna battle you. Newcastle could do their little slow 486 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: build up stuff. It could, it might just take forever 487 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: for this game to get going. I really like Palace 488 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 1: at this number. I'm in the money, yeah, I think 489 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: the one. 490 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. I like both teams score no it minus one fifteen. 491 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 2: They don't halia Palace either. The problem I have with 492 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 2: Pallace and I do. They have been very, very good defensively, 493 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 2: and it's something that we talk about a lot with 494 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 2: Palace and especially Roy Hodgson, is they're not gonna come 495 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 2: out and try to press Newcastle. They're gonna sit back. 496 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: They're gonna sit in there low block and they're back 497 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 2: four of ward Yahee Anderson and Mitchell have been playing 498 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 2: together for so long. They're so good and well organized 499 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: back there and check the Corey looks like he's gonna 500 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 2: play in this match, which obviously massive to them. But 501 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 2: handing the ball to Newcastle and asking them to break 502 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 2: them down I think is a good strategy here because 503 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 2: Now you can make the argument that a team like 504 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: Newcastle can break down low blocks, but they've been breaking 505 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 2: down really bad low blocks like Sheffield United and west Ham. 506 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 2: But what happened when Newcastle played a team like Brentford. 507 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: They did next to nothing for the entire match. They 508 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 2: got a penalty and one to one nothing, created point 509 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: seven x G from open play and only took eight 510 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 2: shots against Brentford. Pallace top five right now and expected 511 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 2: goal is allowed top five and big scoring chances allowed. 512 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 2: The issue I have here with Pallas is they're gonna 513 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 2: be without Essay for this match. Edward's gonna be back, 514 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 2: which is a big, big key for them, But Esa 515 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 2: has been so big for them. I mean he leads 516 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 2: them in pretty much like every single offensive category that 517 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 2: they have. And I'm just not sure if Krystal Palace 518 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 2: can threaten Newcastle in transitional moments. I mean, west Ham 519 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 2: did create one point two expected goals against Newcastle, and 520 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 2: the reason they did one point two is because Nick 521 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 2: Pope made an incredibly dumb goalkeeping error that led to 522 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 2: a tap in which that shot had a point nine 523 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 2: you know XG rating. West Ham did nothing for the 524 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,479 Speaker 2: remainder of the match and scored a goal from outside 525 00:26:55,480 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 2: the box. So so I like both team scored minus 526 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 2: one fifteen. I question Newcastle's true ability to break down 527 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: this low block e Shack is questionable to play in 528 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 2: this match. If he doesn't play, that's really massive to 529 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: them because if you watch the match against west Ham, 530 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 2: he is pretty much the only reason why they were 531 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,239 Speaker 2: creating chances to begin with. He obviously scored twice and 532 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 2: created a ton of chances in and around the box. 533 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 2: So this has potential for like a new like a 534 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 2: zero zero draw or potentially you know, a one zero 535 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: win for either team, so both teams score or no 536 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 2: minus one fifteen projected at minus one fifty five, so 537 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 2: could be kind of a snoozer at Saint James Park. 538 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, the we were talking about the range of outcomes 539 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: for Bourne Myth and Wolves being all over the map, 540 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: and this is kind of the antithesis of that one 541 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: where you can kind of just see three outcomes here. 542 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: You know, Newcastle wins kind of a sleepy two three 543 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 1: nail take Palace out of the game early. Maybe the 544 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 1: game ends Neil Nil's second possible outcome or knodded deep 545 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: into the match in Palace nix it so I yeah, 546 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: I like Palace here. Also like the underdog. And the 547 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: next one we're gonna talk about that's Noddingham forced as 548 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 1: an odd dot minus one fifty favorite against looten Down. 549 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: They're traveling at plus four fifty. There's bigger numbers out 550 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: there on that one, and the draw is plus four 551 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: seventy five. Uh yeah, so lout Down's been bad. 552 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 2: They're not as bad those as everybody thinks. 553 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's I think that's the right way to look 554 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: at it. Is. Their reputation is how to whack like 555 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: they're bad. But you look at their expected gold differential 556 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: per ninety and they're ahead of Sheffield United, Bourne mith 557 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: Burnley and Fulham and they're basically on pire with Wolves. 558 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 2: And they're being Michael. They're being priced like the Norwich 559 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 2: City team from what three years ago. 560 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 1: They're being priced like they've been they were relegated. Yeah 561 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: in March, Forrest is good at home, but they're they're 562 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: still not even force Like this is yes, you can't 563 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: say with a straight face, this looks like a great 564 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: spot to bet louten Down. But this feels like a 565 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: great spot to bet looten Town. 566 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's a fantastic spot to bet Lowtontown. 567 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 2: I feel like I'm gonna betting them every single week 568 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: now if the market keeps putting out numbers like this. 569 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 2: This is the highest price that not even Force has 570 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 2: ever been in the Premier League by a pretty wide margin. 571 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: Their next highest price was minus one fifteen against Sheffield 572 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 2: United in match week two. Obviously Sheffield denied. What we 573 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 2: know about them now is they're really really bad and 574 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 2: they are the worst team in the Premier League. It's 575 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 2: not Louton Town, but you know, Loutontown obvious look terrible 576 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: against Tottenham, like there's there's no other way to put it. 577 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 2: And they obviously got benefited by the red card at halftime, 578 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 2: so it didn't look as bad. But to begin that 579 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 2: match it was. It was really really bad. They were 580 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 2: giving up a lot of chances. Tottenham was just walking 581 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 2: into their box and just taking shots from wherever they wanted. 582 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 2: But with that being said, Lowtontown this season has played 583 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 2: five what I would call non elite teams. They've looked 584 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 2: terrible against the elite teams, but against the non elite 585 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 2: teams they again, which would be west Ham Fullham Wolves, 586 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 2: Burnley and Everton. They have a plus point two expected 587 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 2: goldffronchial in those five matches and Nottingham Forrest has not 588 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: been good offensively at all. They are averaging point nine 589 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 2: to seven x chiep ninety that's eighteenth, ten point five 590 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 2: shots per ninti that's nineteenth, and ten point four box 591 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 2: entries per ninety that's eighteenth. And all of that has 592 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 2: been with Tywe Allenelli as their main striker. He is 593 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 2: out injured for this match, which is massive for them. 594 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 2: He has been heat over the last two seasons for them. 595 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: He's been a point four to three xt sheper ninety minute. 596 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: Striker Chris Wood is going to be the next option, 597 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 2: which is a pretty significant day. And the one thing 598 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 2: for sure about Lowtontown that we know about them for 599 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 2: sure now is they want to get the ballt wide 600 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 2: and they want to create chances via crosses. They have 601 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 2: completed the most crosses of anybody into the penalty area 602 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 2: of anybody in the Premier League. That is an incredible 603 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 2: feat for them to just be leading one category. And 604 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 2: Notingam Forrest is going to be without Sergarry Air for 605 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: this match, which is a big blow for them because 606 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 2: he's been playing right back essentially consistently for them for 607 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 2: about a year now and is a very very good 608 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 2: defender in wide areas, especially when Nottingham Forest likes to 609 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 2: drop five in their back line that will allow And 610 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 2: I don't normally if you listen to the show, I 611 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: don't really give out props, but I have a prop today. 612 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 2: Michael here Alfhi Daughtry has created twenty chances so far 613 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 2: this Premier League season. That's the fourth most in the 614 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 2: Premier League, six point a little over six shock rereading 615 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 2: actions per ninety minutes. He is seven to one to 616 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 2: have an assist in this match. So that is the 617 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 2: rough bed here. But I do like Lutontown plus one 618 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 2: at minus one thirty seven and it's an underdog and 619 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 2: that segment as well. But again, the market is just 620 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 2: perceiving this team as just completely awful, but they've pung 621 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 2: with the teams in and around their area and the table. Yes, 622 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 2: they've looked terrible against good competition, but they're not as 623 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 2: bad as the market is perceiving them. So this is 624 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 2: a good spot here to bet Lootontown. Nottingham Force is 625 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 2: significantly overvalued without their their best player, so it's another 626 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 2: bet on Lutontown, another. 627 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: Bet on I was hyped up for that bet against 628 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: that Spurs. So what was happening the Red car? 629 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: Charlie's like thirty seconds they missed an absolute center, so 630 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 2: that Chelsea Arsenal games the twelve thirty, like I said, 631 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 2: the Merseyside derby seven thirty. 632 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: The other games we talked about were tens. And then 633 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: there is also three o'clock game Eastern Time on Saturday afternoon. 634 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: That's Sheffield United as a six to one underdog against 635 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: Manchester United. Is two fifty in the draw for this one? 636 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: Is it four to one? Been betting against Manchester United 637 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: a lot to the most for the most part, it's 638 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: been working, been betting on Sheffield United a lot, and 639 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: it hasn't worked it all. 640 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: I'm not going to do it. 641 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: I will be happy to call it a Saturday before 642 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: this match kicks off. 643 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 2: Yep, me too. I mean, I'll be honest. I haven't 644 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 2: done a real deep, like deep deep dive into how 645 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: truly bad Sheffield United is. And maybe that's something I 646 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,959 Speaker 2: will do next week or sometime when I actually want 647 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 2: of us have the courage to bet on them, but 648 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 2: like they've been so bad. I've been like projecting value 649 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: against United for like I think every match this season, 650 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 2: and this has been the one match where I just 651 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 2: don't have any value on them, So I'm passing. I 652 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 2: could give you a ton of stats right now that 653 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: could tell you how bad Sheffield United is, but I'll 654 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 2: just tell everybody they're really bad. They're bad at everything. 655 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 2: They're not good at one right now, So this is 656 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 2: an easy pass. Do not lay minus one and a 657 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 2: half if you noted on the road Manchester not on 658 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 2: the road. That is a terrible decision given their defensive situation. 659 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 2: But they'll probably end up winning four nothing here against 660 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 2: the Blades and everything will be all good. Eric ten 661 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 2: Hogg will his seat will cool down a little bit 662 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 2: before they go losing the Champions League to Copenhagen this week. 663 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: Nothing, nothing more to add A very little add on 664 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: the Sunday kickoff too. It's as an odds on favorite 665 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: minus one ten hosting west Ham plus two eighty and 666 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: the draws plus two sixty. I would say that like 667 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: it would be west Ham or nothing here against Villa, 668 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: who are all over the map with how they've played 669 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: this year. They they are winning more than they're losing. 670 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 1: I should not know, but you look at their games 671 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 1: and once again like they're so high event they've When 672 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 1: you take their expected goals for and expect it goes 673 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: against and put them together, you get twenty eight point 674 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: one fifteen point one four thirteen against. I think only 675 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: Brighton is has more than that, and it's it's after that, 676 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 1: it's there's not really anybody all that close west and 677 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: west Ham is actually another one that's been high event too, 678 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: So you just don't really think about that when it 679 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: comes to especially with west Ham. So I think you know, 680 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: people will point to the over here you can look 681 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: at another kind of crazy prop like you talked about 682 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 1: with Bournemouth and Wolves. But I'm just like I said, 683 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: I have enough bets on this board. I do, so 684 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 1: I'm just yeah, I'm happy to to kick this one 685 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: to the piss pile. 686 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the totals of three so like like 687 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: you said, like you just mentioned, that's why the total 688 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 2: is sitting as high. 689 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 1: As it is. 690 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 2: But I do like aston Villa here at home and 691 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 2: even money, and I think this might be my first 692 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 2: bet on Astonville. I feel I have been fading them 693 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 2: ever since soon I am re arrived at aston Villa. 694 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 2: But I mean, listen, west Ham has just been flat 695 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 2: out terrible defensively. I mean, David Moyes is playing a 696 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 2: park the bus, extreme low block this season. And what 697 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 2: has been happening with them, and it happened against Newcastle, 698 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 2: is they will look really good for the about the 699 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 2: first thirty forty minutes of the match, and then when 700 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 2: you get to the second half they completely start to 701 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,280 Speaker 2: tire out because guess what, when you're constantly man marking 702 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 2: runners in your own final third for seventy percent of 703 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 2: the match, it gets at tad exhausting, and when you're 704 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 2: not very deep, like a team like west Ham is, 705 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 2: it can cause a lot of problems. So that's why 706 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 2: you see right now sixty percent of west Ham's expectacles 707 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 2: allowed have come in the second half. And Unaiamor has 708 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 2: switched his formation. He's been playing a three to five 709 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 2: to two Matty Cash and Luca Dean as wingbacks, trying 710 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 2: to progress the ball forward up the pitch and the 711 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 2: results have been working. I mean at aston Villa, when 712 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 2: they're in possession, they're building out of a three two five. 713 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 2: Those wing backs push high at the field. They get 714 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: in and v one situations, especially with Diabi coming over 715 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: to the right side of the pitch to create an overload, 716 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 2: and they've been able to swing in a ton of 717 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 2: crosses to the box and create chances that way. So 718 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 2: they've created a lot of chances via crosses actually created 719 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 2: had the second most crosses completed in the penalty area 720 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 2: of anybody in the Premier League. West Ham has allowed 721 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 2: the most crosses of anybody. And one more thing about 722 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 2: west Ham is that Ariola the goalkeeper is on an 723 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 2: incredible shot stopping run right now plus three point five 724 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,919 Speaker 2: post shot actually plus minus that's most in the Premier League. 725 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 2: So could see some regression coming for him. And if 726 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: you think about the team type of teams that west 727 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 2: Ham has been successful against, you know, like a Brighton 728 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 2: or a Newcastle, it's teams that will press them high, 729 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 2: relentlessly and they can send them all along and you know, 730 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 2: actually have some advantages in the middle of the pitch 731 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 2: to win those duels and also space to be able 732 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 2: to operate and transition with the great dribblers that they 733 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,320 Speaker 2: have like Pakita and Jared Bowen. Well aston Ville is 734 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 2: not the team that's going to us you high, They're 735 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 2: going to play a mid block and they're going to 736 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 2: condense the space in between the lines. So and west 737 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 2: Ham's not really a team that is going to make 738 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: runs off the back line and try and create chances 739 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 2: that way. So they're kind of stuck in this middle 740 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 2: limbo where I'm not really sure how they are going 741 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: to score against aston Villa, even though aston Villa has 742 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 2: given up a lot of chances. So and yeah, and 743 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 2: you know, aston Villa has. The reason why they're expected 744 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 2: goals is so high is because they've allowed twelve big 745 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 2: scoring chances, but nine of them have come against Newcastle, 746 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 2: Liverpool and Brighton, so they've been much much better against 747 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 2: lesser competition. So I've projected aston Villa at minus one nineteen. 748 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 2: I think west Ham's little block has been really, really bad, 749 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:41,919 Speaker 2: and so getting aston Villa at home and even money 750 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 2: I think has a little bit about all right. 751 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 1: And the last Premier League match on the slate is 752 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 1: a Monday night football kick between Spurs and Fulham. Tottenham 753 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: minus two hundred, Fulham is five to one and the 754 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: draw is plus three fifty. 755 00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 2: Uh man. 756 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: It's one of those situations where it's a little bit 757 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: more pencil and paper handicapping than just looking at the numbers, 758 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 1: because I think in terms of the price, like we 759 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,839 Speaker 1: know Tottenam is going to be a little inflated. They're 760 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 1: top of the league right now, they're one of two 761 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: teams that's yet to lose. The vibes are immaculate under 762 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: Big and that said, the matchup here is really good 763 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: for them stylistically, I think, so you can look at 764 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 1: some I think you can look at like a Spurs 765 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: minus two and a half at plus three ten as 766 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: maybe my favorite bet if I was going to do it. 767 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,800 Speaker 1: I'm not totally sure if I'm there yet. It's a 768 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: Monday kick, so I've got all weekend see if I'm 769 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: looking at my ms or not. But I would look 770 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: at a Spurs blowout is the route I'm looking for here. 771 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 2: I agree, if you're going to do anything, lay here 772 00:39:58,400 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 2: with Spurs. 773 00:39:58,880 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: You know. 774 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 2: The one thing with Tottenham and why they've been so 775 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 2: good final third of box entry conversion. Man, I think 776 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: I've said it what eight times already this episode. Well, 777 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 2: Tottam is number one in the Premier like about forty 778 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 2: percent of the time when they get the ball into 779 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 2: the final third, it's getting in the penaltyaria. That is 780 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 2: how effective they have been at breaking down teams like 781 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,760 Speaker 2: Fulham that want to play a low block. Now, Fulham 782 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,320 Speaker 2: has improved defensively over the last few matches, you know 783 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 2: they want obviously against Sheffield United, only allowed point six 784 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,800 Speaker 2: to XG held Palace two point three, held Lootontown to 785 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 2: one point one. But if you look at when they've 786 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 2: played the top tier competition, two point two to man City, 787 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 2: three point two to Arsenal, three point seven to Brentford, 788 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 2: although they'd have a red card there, and two point 789 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:43,919 Speaker 2: seven to Everton on opening weekend. So yeah, this could 790 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:47,760 Speaker 2: get really badly out of hand, especially if Fulham concedes 791 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 2: first here and they have to come out of that 792 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 2: low block and they have to try to press and 793 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 2: gives more space to Tottenham, which has been a death 794 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 2: sentence for many many teams. So it's all about if 795 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,879 Speaker 2: Tottenham can score here first. So but yeah, if you're 796 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 2: gonna play anything, you know, like you said, Tottenham minus 797 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 2: two and a half or any type of alt like 798 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 2: that is is a good way to play it here 799 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 2: on a Monday. 800 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: All right, that's the Premier League done and dusted will 801 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 1: go onto the Bundesliga. Anthony and I both like mines, yeah, 802 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: in different ways. I think that, you know, plus seven fifty, 803 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 1: they're a decent look for the for an upset in 804 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 1: the Bundesliga against third place Bayern Munich. Right now Mine's 805 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: sitting at seventeenth, but they're expected goals differential suggests they 806 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: should be a little bit higher than that. And we 807 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: know we trust both both spencedon on the show and 808 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 1: he needs a result. 809 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 2: Pretty badly, so he does. He really needs a result. 810 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: I think that they're worth worth a look at least. 811 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 2: What do you have for the Bundesliga uh Hoffenheim Eintrach 812 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 2: Frankfurt under two and a half plus one twenty five 813 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 2: I in track Frankfurt. There's some like really concerning things 814 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 2: going on with their offense. Ever since Gulamani has left 815 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 2: and obviously Kamata has left to Lazio as well, they're 816 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 2: getting a ton of their offense into the final third. 817 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 2: Like they are top seven in both final third entries 818 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 2: and box entries. They have no forwards to finish off 819 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 2: any chances. They have taken the third or the fewest 820 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 2: shots of anybody in the Bundesliga and are averaging one 821 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:31,439 Speaker 2: point zero three non penalty xt for ninety Like that's 822 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: really really bad where you're getting the fifth most final 823 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,080 Speaker 2: entries of any team. So like they've been good, Like 824 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 2: they've been controlling possession and they've been doing that type 825 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 2: of thing and it's been good. But just a really 826 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 2: really bad offense, but a top five defense. They have 827 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: a really really good ball stopper and Alia Shakurri, who's 828 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 2: came over from Cologne just runs for days. He's incredibly 829 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 2: good against teams like Hoffenheim who want to play more 830 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 2: transitional type games, and Hoffenheim their defensive numbers haven't been great, 831 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 2: but they have improved. They had two really baderformances in 832 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 2: the beginning of the season against Heidenheim and Freiburg, but 833 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 2: ever since then they've allowed under one point six x 834 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,959 Speaker 2: G and every single match. So I think you're seeing 835 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 2: just a little bit of an inflated total here with 836 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,839 Speaker 2: you know, a Frankfurt team that just can't generate really 837 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 2: any high quality chances whatsoever. If I mean getting the 838 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 2: fewest shots in the Bundesliga with the fifth most final 839 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 2: third entries, like that's incredibly embarrassing and very inefficient in 840 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 2: the final third, so under two and a half plus 841 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,720 Speaker 2: one twenty five and Offenheim and Frankfurt. 842 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 1: For me, all right, what do you got in La 843 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:40,720 Speaker 1: Liga Syria and Legal, Well, we got La Liga. 844 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 2: The big match of the weekend is Sevilla and Real Madrid. 845 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 2: I think the price is a little too short on 846 00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 2: Real Madrid at minus one fifteen. I mean, Sevia is 847 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 2: putting up great offensive numbers, but their defense is still 848 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 2: eighteenth and expected goals they are eighteenth and final third 849 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 2: of box entry conversion rates, showing just how bad they 850 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: are in transitional defense. And there is a formation Michael. 851 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 2: I believe it was against Napoli that Real Madrid played 852 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 2: that made just total sense for the team that they 853 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 2: currently have structured. Where they were putting Venetius Junior and 854 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,839 Speaker 2: Rodrigo as a front two, they were playing Bellingham as 855 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 2: a ten, and then they were going Valverde, Tony Cruz 856 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,280 Speaker 2: and chu Many as like a three man midfield, essentially 857 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 2: a four to three one two. And given how good 858 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 2: Bellingham is, Penn like he might be like, honestly, he 859 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 2: might be the best player on the planet right now, 860 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 2: like Bape has been in a little bit kind of 861 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 2: a bad form, but like Bellingham, does literally everything that 862 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 2: you could ever want from a midfielder. So going up 863 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 2: against the Sevia defense that has been bad. The one 864 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 2: worry here is that Savilla has been very very good 865 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:49,359 Speaker 2: at creating chances via crosses obviously with and Siria as 866 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 2: a great aerial threat in the middle, and Real Madrid 867 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,959 Speaker 2: has allowed quite a few crosses in their penalty area. 868 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 2: But in terms of a price point, I mean, given 869 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 2: what we've had in terms of expected gold results, I 870 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,239 Speaker 2: mean Real Madrid last season was round a plus one 871 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 2: extra differential per ninety minutes and Sabia obviously was in 872 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 2: the red, and I mean this season Real Madrid still 873 00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 2: continue to put up good numbers. So too low a 874 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: price on Real Madrid at minus one fifteen against Sevilla 875 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 2: in Syria. Ah salard Etna Kagliari over two and a 876 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 2: half at plus one ten to bottom five defenses going 877 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 2: up against each other. Buladia has been out a few 878 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 2: matches for Salary Town. I think he's going to be back. 879 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 2: He's been playing for the last few ones and should 880 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 2: be there for this match as well. Very very important 881 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 2: player to them and should be able to create a 882 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 2: lot of chances against a very very bad Kagalliari defense. 883 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 2: So honestly, it's been two offenses that have been not 884 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 2: very good. But when we have a situation like this 885 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 2: where we have two of the worst defenses, I tend 886 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 2: to favor the defensive metrics more than the offensive ones, 887 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 2: because a lot of the defensive metrics can be more 888 00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,359 Speaker 2: indicative than you know, offensive when you're playing specially low 889 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 2: blocks against good teams in Italy and then France, Lil 890 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 2: minus one thirty against Breast, I'm gonna continue fade this 891 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 2: the BREASTWA team. Their underlying metrics have been good. They 892 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 2: were a relegation fodder team last year, they sold away 893 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 2: their best attacker, and somehow they've just put up incredible numbers. 894 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 2: But Lil is still very very very good, number one 895 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 2: in box entries in both offensively and defensively, still second 896 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 2: in league on in expected threat and a lot of 897 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 2: defensive categories. So I think minus one thirty is is 898 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 2: too short of a price at home for LIL against Breast. 899 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:39,720 Speaker 1: Lovely Stuff, Lovely Lovely Stuff, I'm the underdog. Lay three legs. 900 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: This one spits out at one hundred and eighty three 901 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 1: to one. I will give you Anthony's right now. 902 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 2: He likes I don't know who this is, so tell 903 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,840 Speaker 2: me I haven't he's going against Oh. 904 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: No, yeah, he likes South to Vigo against our boys. 905 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, at Letty. 906 00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 2: I tried it. I texted him. I tried to tell 907 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 2: him they're losing this weekend, but he didn't listen. 908 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: Anyways, that's st Anthony. We won't get too deep into it. 909 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: I like Evertton plus seven to fifty in the Merseyside 910 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: derby against Liverpool Everdon, according to our good friends over 911 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 1: at Opta have created or have generated more expected points 912 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: than Liverpool so far the season. I know, I know 913 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,919 Speaker 1: you can poke holes in the Everdence schedule to date, 914 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 1: and I know that they haven't won many very many games, 915 00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 1: and I know that they haven't won very many games 916 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: against Liverpool and the past fifteen years or so beyond that. 917 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 1: But the point is that they're not as bad as 918 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 1: this number tells you they are, and the gap isn't 919 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: The gap is wide between these two teams. Everdence a 920 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 1: big underdog for reasons, but the gap isn't as wide 921 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: as these odds suggest, and it's also a tough spot 922 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: here for Liverpool coming back from the international break. As 923 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,240 Speaker 1: BJ noted a lot of players coming from different continents. 924 00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: Everdon really don't have as much of a problem there 925 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 1: and Leslie say that this Liverpool defense continues to be suspects. 926 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: For a second there it looked like maybe they were 927 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 1: getting their act together, there was a blip and they've 928 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 1: been poor relative to expectations and the Everdon attack has 929 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 1: been honestly better than promising. Promising is maybe an understatement, 930 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,799 Speaker 1: so this is a live dog situation. Everdon plus seven fifty. 931 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 2: Loutontown five to one against Nottingham Forest. Again, the Mark 932 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,319 Speaker 2: is perceiving this Loutontown team as one of the worst 933 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 2: teams the Premier League has ever seen, and right now 934 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 2: that is just not the case. In the five matches 935 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 2: that they've played against competition around their area of the table, 936 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 2: they have a plus point two expect a gold differential. 937 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 2: That is pretty impressive for a team that doesn't really 938 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 2: have much talent. And what we know about Loutontown is 939 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 2: they love to create a ton of chances be across 940 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 2: as Dotingham Forrest will be without one of their best 941 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:01,440 Speaker 2: wide defenders in search Arier, so Lowtontown could create a 942 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,400 Speaker 2: lot of chances off the left wing at Alfi. Daughtry 943 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 2: also noting Um forced out Taiwa awan Ali their best strikers, 944 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,360 Speaker 2: So no, that means Chris Wood is going to be 945 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 2: up top, which is a significant downgrade for Naughtingham Forests. 946 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,760 Speaker 2: So for a not enforced offense that has been bottom 947 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 2: three in every defense offensive category, this is the highest 948 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 2: price they've ever been in the Premier League. It's a 949 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,760 Speaker 2: good time to fade them. With Loutontown five to one. 950 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 1: The hatters all right, So that's Loutontown evident in South 951 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: of Bego. It's our three like underdog parlay one hundred 952 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 1: and eighty three to one onto our best bets. Now 953 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: for the upcoming Premier League match week, I will let 954 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 1: you know that Anthony's favorite play is the under in 955 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,880 Speaker 1: Chelsea and Arsenal under two and a half at minus 956 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: one ten. I'm gonna take another big price here. I 957 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: like Brighton on the money line at six to one. 958 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: It's my favorite bet. I went back and forth on 959 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 1: Brighton in Palace, but I just think that the upside 960 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 1: with Brighton, as BJ noted, like this match could go 961 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:05,320 Speaker 1: so many different directions, and a lot of those directions 962 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: are end up with a Brighton win. The way that 963 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,839 Speaker 1: this attack is going this season, it's gonna give any 964 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 1: defense in the world problems. And I know Cities defense 965 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:19,840 Speaker 1: is still the unquestionable best unit in the world, but 966 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: their attack is not. And so Brighton's poor defense all 967 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 1: of a sudden it doesn't become as big a problem 968 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:30,920 Speaker 1: as it would if the City offense was firing on 969 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: all cylinders like it was for the Lion's share of 970 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:37,399 Speaker 1: last season, especially after the World Cup. So I'm gonna 971 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 1: take a shot here. I just you know, when you're 972 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 1: getting a number like this plus six hundred, even on 973 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:45,640 Speaker 1: the road on one of the better teams in the league, 974 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:48,959 Speaker 1: top four team in the Premier League, top five teams 975 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 1: Premier League, however one you want to put Brighton, they're 976 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 1: just as good as teams like you know, three or 977 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:59,600 Speaker 1: four years ago, like the Manchester United's are Tottenhams of 978 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 1: the world, and you weren't getting these prices on them. 979 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 1: So if you just kind of switched the names around 980 00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:09,400 Speaker 1: and you put a bigger name on Brighton here, you 981 00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: want to be getting six to one with sitting in 982 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: this kind of form, So I like the Seaguals. It's 983 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:15,399 Speaker 1: my favorite bet. 984 00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like Everton Liverpool both teams to score at 985 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 2: minus one point fifty. Everton has been incredible offensively and 986 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:25,520 Speaker 2: yes they have played an easy schedule, but they have 987 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 2: created more expected goals than Manchester City this season. From 988 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 2: a tactical perspective, I think this match sets up pretty 989 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 2: well for them. It spends on what Sean Ditch is 990 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 2: actually going to do. Is he going to go back 991 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:37,319 Speaker 2: to his old ways and play a four or five 992 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 2: to one mid block and not try to press Liverpool high, 993 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 2: or is he going to do what he's been doing 994 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:43,719 Speaker 2: to a lot of teams in the bottom half of 995 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:47,359 Speaker 2: the table, which is pressing high, disrupting build up play, 996 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 2: creating those high turnovers and creating a lot of good 997 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 2: transitional opportunities, which is how they've created a lot of 998 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 2: these expected goals. Now, what's going to happen with Liverpool 999 00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 2: is because they're without Curtis Jones, they're not going to 1000 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 2: have a true number six in the middle of the pitch, 1001 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 2: so it's probably gonna be a Lexi McCallister. And what 1002 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 2: Liverpool has been doing is they've been playing more compact 1003 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 2: out of possession to not allow teams to easily play 1004 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 2: through the middle. So that means there's gonna be a 1005 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 2: lot of space in wide areas for Everton, which is 1006 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 2: a good thing because Everton has completed the fourth most 1007 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 2: crosses of anybody in the Premier League this season into 1008 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,760 Speaker 2: the penalty area. Liverpool while thirteenth in that same category. Defensively, 1009 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 2: Everton also incredible set piece defense. You always know that 1010 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 2: with Sean Ditsch teams. They've created four point three to 1011 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,279 Speaker 2: three expected goals off a set pieces, that's second most 1012 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:35,640 Speaker 2: in the Premier League. Liverpool thirteenth in expected goals allowed 1013 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 2: per set piece this season. So some good offensive advantages 1014 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 2: here for Everton, but the Liverpool offense is still elite. 1015 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:44,239 Speaker 2: They've created a big scoring chance in every single match 1016 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:45,959 Speaker 2: they've played the season, the only team in the Premier 1017 00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 2: League to do that. It's still you know, top three 1018 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:51,799 Speaker 2: in expected goals. So for an Everton defense that hasn't 1019 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,600 Speaker 2: really played much top tier competition, they could get a 1020 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: little bit exposed here. So both team to score at 1021 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 2: minus one fifty in Everton and Liverpool. 1022 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:03,879 Speaker 1: Okay, that does it for this episode of Wonder Girl, 1023 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,959 Speaker 1: presented to you by our friends at Bet three sixty five. 1024 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 1: We will be back for a Champions League preview on 1025 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 1: Monday morning, so be sure to check out that episode 1026 00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 1: when it drops.
