I'm going 32 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 4: to start with Frankfurt and Napoli. Obviously Liverpool Madrid is 33 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 4: the headliner, but let's get this Frankfort Napoli match out 34 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 4: of the way first. Frankfurt's plus two forty at home, 35 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 4: Napoli plus one ten on the road to draw US 36 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 4: plus two six. The Napolis lost two matches in Syria, 37 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 4: AH and the Champions League all season. If you combine 38 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 4: their records twenty five wins to draws, that's maybe more 39 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 4: impressive than anything, is that they've only drawn two matches 40 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 4: and two losses, so twenty two and two in Syria 41 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 4: and the Champions League. I kind of want to bet 42 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 4: Frankfurt to advance. 43 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 3: Here. Everybody is gonna be on Napoli. 44 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 4: This number is I think only going in one direction, 45 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 4: and it's I think it just comes down to one 46 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 4: of these big favorites is gonna lose and I'll take 47 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 4: the kind of young, inexperienced European team here to maybe 48 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,839 Speaker 4: be that team going up against the defending Europa League 49 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 4: champions who By the way, Frankfurt's having a decent season 50 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 4: in Bundesliga. There's sixth expect the numbers say they should 51 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 4: be around fifth or six. I know you guys are 52 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 4: going to talk me out of it, but I think 53 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 4: that that's where I'd be looking, Anthony. Is there a 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 4: path to success here for the Germans? 55 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 5: I think the only way you can really make a 56 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 5: case for Frankfort here is if you think that Napoli 57 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 5: is overrated because their schedule, Like we kind of don't 58 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 5: know about Italy, how good is Italy as a league 59 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 5: because we all love Roma and you know they had 60 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 5: an okay performance in the Europa League last week. You 61 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 5: know they lost at Salzburg. I thought they were a 62 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 5: better team, but like they played Roma about even on 63 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 5: two separate occasions. They lost to Enter in their worst 64 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 5: game of the season at Inter where they created less 65 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 5: than half of an expected goal. They have, without a doubt, 66 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 5: trucked a lot of bad Syria teams. They've been dominant 67 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 5: in Syria, but if you think about the league, the 68 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 5: mid table and the lower part of Syria have probably 69 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 5: never been this bad. 70 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: There's just no money. 71 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 5: A lot of the good talent in Syria is getting 72 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 5: swept up by mid level teams in the Premier League 73 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 5: to the Bundesliga and La Liga, like they're not selling up 74 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 5: their own food chain, you know, to the Ventises of 75 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 5: the world and the Romas. Even so, you know, like 76 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 5: how good is the top of Serie I is kind 77 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 5: of the biggest question with Napoli because they had that 78 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 5: incredible showing against Liverpool at home in the first match 79 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 5: of the Champions League, and as impressive as that was, 80 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 5: like we have to remember, you know, what we thought 81 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 5: of Liverpool then versus what we think of them now, 82 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 5: Like Napoli was like perfectly built to take apart every 83 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 5: flaw that Liverpool has in transition defense especially. I think 84 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 5: that was like the coming out party. But like, at 85 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 5: some point we do have to respect the underlying numbers. 86 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 5: I've lost money fading this team on multiple occasions against Roma, 87 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 5: a couple of times against the Swallow last weekend. 88 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: They have some of them that they have a. 89 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 5: Lot of depth, but like Cavard, Scalia and Osherman have 90 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 5: like both had breakout star campaigns the same exact time, 91 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 5: and so like their ceiling is really high. 92 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 2: They could win this whole tournament. 93 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 5: I agree they're a little bit overvalued in the market 94 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 5: like week to week, but Frankfort, I mean I rail 95 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 5: against them every week or soccer editor a Free Exerman 96 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 5: was joking about it. He's like, you know, Dubunda, you 97 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 5: want this game, Like I know, you're just gonna, you know, 98 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 5: hate on Frankfort, who again had a pretty map performance 99 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 5: over the weekend. Like I just don't know that Frankfurt 100 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 5: is the team I want to bet against them with. 101 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 3: It's a fair point. 102 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 4: I just I guess it's it's almost one of those 103 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 4: situations where before the draw and even like kind of 104 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 4: in the week at the weeks that we've had off, 105 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 4: I'm like, I kind of just want to bet against 106 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: Napoli in the Champions League because you just see so 107 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 4: many so much love for them, whether it's in the 108 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 4: betting market or just you know on soccer Twitter every 109 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: weekend when they're pacing teams at Syria and Ocehaman's going 110 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 4: off and you're just I'm. 111 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: Like this this. 112 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 4: Eventually he's going to get to a point where they're 113 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: either gonna win the Champions League or you're gonna be 114 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 4: able to make money going against them. And we do 115 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 4: see a shock or two every you know, in these 116 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 4: first two knockout rounds around sixteen and quarterfinals LA. Last 117 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 4: year we saw via re outbeat Bayern Munich, I believe 118 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 4: in the quarterfinals, which was something nobody really saw it coming. 119 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 4: So this is not that obviously that was a much 120 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 4: more profound thing I would say. But yeah, we be 121 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 4: a play on just Napoli being overrated. We'll see it's 122 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 4: a tough environment to go to of course as well. 123 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 4: Like I don't know, bj what are your thoughts. 124 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 6: I'm getting closer and closer to playing Napoli here, but 125 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 6: I'm gonna need a better number, like I'm gonna need 126 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 6: plus one twenty five or better. 127 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: So I do project them at plus one oh three. 128 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: So I do. 129 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 6: I am project a little bit of value. Anthony mentioned 130 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 6: with Frankfurt. I mean they're they're overperforming offensively in the Bundesliga, 131 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 6: which is not a surprise because they did that last season. 132 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 6: Two twenty eight goals smoked the playoff of twenty one 133 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 6: point four expected eight set piece goals off of five 134 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 6: point four expected. It was interesting about Frankfort is there. 135 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 6: You know, if you look at a lot of their 136 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 6: their data points, they're a very interesting team because they 137 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 6: can play a blend of two different styles. So they're 138 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 6: build up attacks to direct attacks. OPTA is about the same. 139 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 6: It's thirty two direct attacks thirty four build up attacks. 140 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: But I went through and looked. 141 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 6: When they played teams where they weren't able to hold 142 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 6: fifty percent possession, they have a minus three point two 143 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 6: expected goal differential in those matches, and they'd better be 144 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 6: prepared to not have a lot of possession in this 145 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 6: match because Napoli is one of the most possessioned dominant 146 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 6: teams across Europe. But to Anthony's point, you know how 147 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 6: good is Syria. I is Napoli gonna be able to 148 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 6: hold that much possession against a team like Frankfort, especially 149 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 6: on the road. 150 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: And the Frankfort offense. 151 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 6: I mean, it's essentially just built on creating big scoring chances, right, 152 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 6: I mean they're what they're averaging eleven point two shots 153 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 6: per ninety that's fifteenth in the Bundesliga, but their fifth 154 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 6: and non penaltyu expected goals, having about one and a 155 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 6: half per ninety Napoli's allowed ten big scoring chances all 156 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 6: season long in Syria. A and Napoli obviously you mentioned 157 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 6: Oshman and Kabar Scalley. I mean they hurt to combined 158 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,119 Speaker 6: one point five to eight x G plus expected assist 159 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 6: per ninety minutes like that is an incredible duo. 160 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: That's an incredible form. 161 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 6: Now, Frankfort is a very difficult place to go and 162 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 6: play right, and they have incredible fans. Plus eight point 163 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 6: two expected goldifrenchal at home this season, but Napoli has 164 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 6: been good just as good away from home. 165 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: As they have been at home. 166 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 6: Plus eleven point two expected gold differential away from home 167 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 6: in Syria and plus twelve point one at home. So 168 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 6: if Napoli gets to plus one twenty five, I have 169 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 6: to play them purely from a projection edge. I mean 170 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 6: five thirty eight does have Napoli a fifty percent, So 171 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 6: I will take Napoli. But it gets to plus one 172 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 6: twenty five, I don't know if we get there. There's 173 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 6: a plus one twenty out there right now. I just 174 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,079 Speaker 6: keep staring at it. I can't hit it right now. 175 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 6: So hopefully it gets to plus one twenty five, but 176 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 6: we'll see. But yeah, I don't know if this is 177 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 6: the time to necessarily fade Napoli. I think when they 178 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 6: have to go up against one of these bigger sides 179 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 6: who's going to control a lot of possession, I think 180 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 6: that'll be the time to fade them. 181 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 5: I mean, Frankfurt finished with a negative expected goal difference 182 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 5: and like a bad Champions League group, a group of 183 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 5: teams that we all were like these teams caught them. Yeah, 184 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 5: Spurs we're in that in that group, Marseille and Sporting 185 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 5: lisbon U. And the other thing is like, you know, 186 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 5: when we think of Frankfort, you think of like the pressing, 187 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 5: and I do think it's a good point. Like Napoli 188 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 5: sixty one percent possession in Syria, like they are a 189 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 5: field tilt dotomination beast. You can't just let BArch Gillia 190 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 5: and Oshman walk into your penalty area. And Frankfurt's pressing 191 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 5: numbers in Germany like aren't that good. They're kind of 192 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 5: middle of the road, and like passes allowed a pass 193 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 5: complete percentage allowed. They were average in the Champions League 194 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 5: group matches. So like their back line man like it 195 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 5: could get really really exposed here, Like I wish they'd 196 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 5: gotten a different opponent, like any team that wasn't unbelievably 197 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 5: overinflated in the market right now, and I would have 198 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 5: loved to fade Frankfurt. 199 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: But yeah, this is a tough one. 200 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 5: This is the hardest match I think of all eight 201 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 5: in the round of sixteen that I've gone back and 202 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 5: forth on a lot. 203 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: And I will have a full preview for this. 204 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 5: I'm gonna kind of break down both sides of the 205 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 5: matchup and kind of wear take a long walk and yeah. 206 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: Take a long walk and eventually settle on something. 207 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 5: Might even hit the prop market or something, because getting 208 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 5: to a side or a total here is really tough. 209 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 5: It will be interesting to see though, like Napoli getting 210 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 5: tested outside of Italy because if you look at it, 211 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 5: like they did concede over one expect to go to 212 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 5: i AX. In both meetings they did concede two to 213 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 5: Atalanta over one to to Juventus, even though they destroyed 214 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 5: Juventus the other way, and that was Uventus is like 215 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 5: a team who just just doesn't press, Like if you 216 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 5: don't press this team, like you will get destroyed. So 217 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 5: we'll see be fine, it could be a good match, 218 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 5: but I've got no bet as of now. 219 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, they pumped that really good Rangers team too, and 220 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 6: the Champions League. 221 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 4: Well, I mean that's yeah, that's the like that that 222 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 4: deck group went from being the group of death too, right. 223 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 6: Like Okay, So if you also, if you look at 224 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 6: it like Napoli, like this, the second meeting against Liverpool 225 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 6: meant nothing and they got pumped in that one. That's 226 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 6: like the only match that you can look at and 227 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 6: you can say, like, yeah, they were completely outplayed and 228 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 6: beaten this season. 229 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: Other than that, it's like and. 230 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 5: They didn't really even you talked about the two draws 231 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 5: they were in the first month of the year. Yeah, 232 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 5: and they in Syria, like they've won every Seria match 233 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 5: since October except for the loss to Enter, which uh 234 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 5: inter I thought, they're really good job pressing them and 235 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 5: like just kind of taking far skilly out of it. 236 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 5: I don't think Frankfort's nearly as good on the back 237 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 5: line defensively. 238 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, like, if you're playing Frankfort, you're just 239 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 4: kind of banking on this number being. 240 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 6: I mean, if you're gonna play Frankfort, wait wait until 241 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 6: match time. Wait until match time because it's numbers. I mean, 242 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 6: I'm guessing, if you know NAPTI puts the freak line 243 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,199 Speaker 6: up out there, it's gonna be it's gonna close that probably. 244 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 5: Every every Twitter capper in the world is gonna be 245 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 5: on Nappoly money. 246 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 3: And that's what I'm saying to wait. 247 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 6: That's why I'm trying to get plus one twenty five, 248 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 6: and I don't think I'm gonna get it, so I'm 249 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 6: probably just getting the passing and. 250 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: Just waiting and just see what happens. 251 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's that's kind of the alert of 252 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 4: the bet to me is like I know where this 253 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 4: line's going, and I know where Napolis going, which is 254 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 4: a tough environment, and they're you know, maybe Frankfort gets 255 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 4: lucky here h plus two twenty five to advance Frankfort 256 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 4: is minus three hundred. Of course those numbers are at 257 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 4: bet three six five. Let's talk the other Tuesday match. 258 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 4: This is hilarious that these two teams threw each other 259 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 4: again or playing each other again, and it's Liverpool. 260 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 3: And Real Madrid. 261 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 4: I wonder if most Salah's gonna tweet, you know, uh, 262 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 4: this time we're getting his revenge tweet. Whatever that was 263 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 4: from last I'm butchering it, but you know we all 264 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 4: remember it. You two were all over Liverpool in the final. 265 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 3: I told you just. 266 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 6: One. 267 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 3: I didn't know Anthony was there trying to get it. 268 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: Had had on France. 269 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 5: It was nacious shot on goal over and it hit 270 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 5: hit with the only shot on goal I think. 271 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 2: We had in the match. 272 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 3: And what do they do? They won. Liverpool's plus one 273 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 3: thirty at home. Uh the Ancelota Madrid is two to one. 274 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 3: The draws plus two sixty. 275 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 4: Liverpool is plus one o five to advance Real Madrid 276 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 4: hanging around minus one forty three at BT three six five. 277 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 4: I mean, we've seen Liverpool put it together. Two good 278 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 4: performances in the Premier League in a row. 279 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 2: They're back. 280 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 3: They're back, right there, Yeah, they're back. 281 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 4: They they beat they beat they beat Sean Dych is 282 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 4: everything at home and they went on the road to 283 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 4: beat Newcastle, a banged up Newcastle side had a red card. 284 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 4: But uh, I think plus two hundred on Real Madrid 285 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 4: against this. This this version of Liverpool, as you said, Anthony, 286 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 4: this this is not the Liverpool we thought we were 287 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 4: getting when these Champions League groups came out. 288 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 3: That draw came out. 289 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 4: I mean, I think the number is maybe not all 290 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,599 Speaker 4: that enticing on Madrid, but it'd be that way or 291 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 4: nothing for me. We know where you're going, your red, 292 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 4: your blood runs red through and throughing. 293 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 5: Liverpool more than betting on them this year. But I'm 294 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 5: betting on them to on Tuesday. Yeah, I think we've 295 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 5: all you know, we've we followed the Preme more closer 296 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 5: than La Liga, and so you know, we talk about 297 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 5: Liverpool almost every week on the show, and I think 298 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 5: just maybe it's because it's in my media ecosystem, but 299 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 5: I feel like we've done way more of the oh 300 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 5: my god, what's wrong with Liverpool? They're broken, they're dead, 301 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 5: they're cooked, they stink, and we haven't done nearly enough 302 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 5: of like the wait a minute, like real Madrid's kind 303 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 5: of floundering a little bit in the league, and like 304 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 5: I know they do this every year, where like their 305 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 5: league performances tend to lag and then they turn it 306 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 5: on for. 307 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: The Champions League. 308 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 5: Most of the Champions League magic, for reality doesn't usually 309 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 5: start to the second leg. So maybe that'll happen here, 310 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 5: you know, they'll pull off, like and I could absolutely 311 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 5: see a world where like Liverpool goes to anfield with 312 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 5: a lead or goes to the Burnabout with a lead 313 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 5: and like crumbles in the second leg. 314 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: But you know we've seen Ancelotti. 315 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 5: I think this is kind of profile similar to last 316 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 5: year's first leg against PSG, where they're going to go 317 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 5: there with like the intention of just keeping this game 318 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 5: competitive and then getting it at home and taking their 319 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 5: chances with them, because PSG totally dominated the first leg 320 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 5: of the Round of sixteen last year, and it's kind 321 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 5: of similar here, Like Liverpool has similar weaknesses to that 322 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 5: PSG team, I think, like stylistically in the sense that 323 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 5: like the transition defense is kind of mess and like 324 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 5: that is scary with Venetius and Benzema. But like this 325 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 5: Real Madrid team is bottom three in La Liga in 326 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 5: past completion percentage allowed, Like you can just play right 327 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 5: through this team like they're not really there. 328 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: That's why their defense stinks. 329 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 5: I mean they give up a ton of chances in 330 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 5: La Liga, in a lot of Liga that you know, 331 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 5: we talk about this with Barcelona in a little bit too, 332 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 5: which I thought was, you know, I don't think we've 333 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 5: given enough credence too. But like the La Liga, attacking 334 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 5: talent seems to be worse this year. And you've got 335 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 5: you know, Real Madrid allowing over one expected goal per 336 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 5: match in that league. That's compared to like a Barcelona 337 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 5: who gave up you know, who give up basically nothing 338 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 5: to opponents. 339 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:42,119 Speaker 3: You know, they're under. 340 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 5: Under zero point seven to eight expected goals allowed per match. 341 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 5: So like this is a bad defense that doesn't stop 342 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 5: the ball, that doesn't press going up against a Liverpool attack. 343 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 2: I mean, we don't know about Darwin Junia. 344 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 5: Which is kind of scary, but like they're finally getting 345 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 5: a little bit healthier with it, dyke back and you know, 346 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 5: Gakpo finally gets his in the goals. Like this is 347 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 5: still a team that if you just give them the 348 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 5: ball and let them have the ball on your final third, 349 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 5: they will tear you to shreds. Like the attack never 350 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 5: got worse. The attack was always good for Liverpool, even 351 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 5: during this this poor stretch they went through. So I 352 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 5: like the reds at home, I was really hoping we'd 353 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 5: get a pick and it was trending that way, but 354 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 5: it appears Liverpool righted the ship just just in time 355 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 5: to keep that number down. So like pick is like 356 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 5: minus one thirty five I'd rather just take the money line. 357 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna win. 358 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 5: Plus one thirty five plus one forties are out there. 359 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 5: I mean the Reds you'll never walk alone Tuesday, and 360 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 5: maybe they'll walk alone at the burn A Bow in 361 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 5: a month, but they're not walking alone tomorrow or Tuesday. 362 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 4: So yeah, I think that was the silver lining for 363 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 4: me with these that ever didn't match. Just like get 364 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 4: people are gonna think that Liverpool's back and everything's fixed, 365 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 4: and perhaps I get to beat them with with my 366 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 4: man Carlo Chelade, the best manager the side of Sean 367 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 4: Deutsche BJ. 368 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 3: What are your thoughts here. 369 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 6: I actually like the over three goals at plus one ten. 370 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,239 Speaker 6: You know, Anthony hit the nail on the head there 371 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,479 Speaker 6: with Real Madrid is that, you know, if you look 372 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 6: at their expected goals numbers in La Liga, you know, 373 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 6: allowing one expected goal for ninety point seven to seven 374 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,360 Speaker 6: non penalty expected goals for ninety minutes. It doesn't really 375 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 6: tell the story because, like you mentioned, the attacking talent's 376 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 6: not really great in La Liga this season. So Real 377 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 6: Madrid against the top five offense because they're the number 378 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 6: one offense in La Liga, so the five offenses below 379 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 6: them which is Barcelona, Rial, Bettis, Girona, Athletico Madrid and Virial. 380 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 6: The five matches they played against those five teams, they've 381 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 6: conceded seven point nine expected goals plus. Courtois really isn't 382 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 6: having that great of a season in that he's a 383 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 6: minus point nine post shot actually plus minus. If we 384 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 6: remember in that Champions League final Liverpool outshot Real Madrid 385 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 6: twenty four to four. Maybe the U expected goals two 386 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 6: point two to two point nine and Courtois made nine saves 387 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 6: like it was and of course it was just like 388 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 6: a perfect crescendo culmination of the Real Madrid the luck 389 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 6: box to go win the champions like it was just perfect. Right, Well, 390 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 6: things have changed since that Champions League final, right, I mean, 391 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 6: Liverpool last season was a point eight to nine x 392 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 6: G per ninety defense. Now they're at one point four 393 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 6: to three. And there's a very interesting tackto dilemma that 394 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 6: Jurgen Klop is dealing with right now. The fact that 395 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 6: we've said it like I don't know how many weeks 396 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 6: in a row, that their midfield is old, they're lights, 397 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 6: they can't press like they used to, so at times 398 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 6: Klop has gone to a four to five one mid 399 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 6: block instead of their usual four to three to three 400 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 6: high press narrow force you to play the ball out wide. 401 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 6: It's a very dangerous game to play a four to 402 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 6: five to one and let Real Madrid have the ball 403 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,479 Speaker 6: and just try to pass right through you, because as 404 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 6: we've seen with Liverpool when they've tried to do that 405 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 6: against teams like Brighton, who can possess the ball and 406 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 6: pass it, they can just play right through you and 407 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 6: get the ball out wide. You mentioned Anthony Venetius Junior 408 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 6: upon the left going against Trent Alexander Arnold is a 409 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,959 Speaker 6: very very dangerous thing that Liverpool. I don't really know 410 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 6: how they're going to defend that or solve that. And 411 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 6: Liverpool's defense, I mean just because they've kept two Clint sheets, 412 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 6: it's like it's not like this defense is automatically back. 413 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 6: I mean, Liverpool hasn't held an opponent under one and 414 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 6: a half expected goals not managed by Sean Deitsch since 415 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 6: December thirtieth against Leicester, Like everybody's just been able to 416 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 6: play right through them and create a ton of chances 417 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 6: against them. Plus Liverpool against the Big Six, plus they 418 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 6: are two matches in the Champions against Napoli, there's about 419 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 6: twelve point seven expected goals in seven matches, So it's 420 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 6: a very like both these defenses are really really bad, 421 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 6: and I don't really see a path to either of 422 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 6: them really really stopping the other one. And it looks like, 423 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 6: like you mentionedthew the Red's getting healthy. We don't know 424 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 6: the stats, Darwin Uniyez, but I hope you two haven't 425 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 6: ripped up your Golden boot tickets yet, because it looks 426 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 6: like Diego Jota. 427 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: Is going to finally be back in the lineup. 428 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 6: And if we remember least he has, he's already had 429 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 6: about a points three four x g P ninety right now, 430 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 6: but he's all what about goals? 431 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 2: Has he scored a goal in the year? I don't. 432 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 6: I don't know I'm scoring a goal, But we remember, 433 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 6: if we forget last year, he was actually outside of 434 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 6: solid he was one of their most important players. Like 435 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 6: he was a point eight to four actually plus expected 436 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 6: to this per ninety minute rate, second behind Solid team, 437 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 6: better than Saudiomane and Liverpool has been underperforming offensively out 438 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 6: of the World Cup break. They've created fifteen point seven 439 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 6: expected goals and in eight matches and have only scored 440 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 6: nine of them, so I love the over three goals 441 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 6: at plus one ten. Both these defenses suck really really bad. 442 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 6: I mean, this game is going to become very transitional, 443 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 6: which favors and also doesn't favor Liverpool and also favors 444 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 6: Real Madrid. It's just, yeah, it's gonna be I think, 445 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 6: a perfectly chaotic type match. So I do have three 446 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 6: point two goals projected, so over three goals at plus 447 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 6: one ten, it's been enough for me. 448 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 5: It's about the same line as the Champions League final, 449 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 5: which was Rachel site. You have down grade Liverpool, I 450 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 5: think more than Real Madrid. But how much more That's 451 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 5: a question also off topic, But I did think it 452 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 5: was funny Today. The broadcast was hyping up Marcus Rashford 453 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 5: and one of the commentator, I don't know who the 454 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 5: commentator was, but he said, like, you know, he's really 455 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 5: given a run for Golden. 456 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 2: Boot with Early Holland and I'm like, no way, that's true. 457 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 5: And then they NBC Sports put up the graphic and 458 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 5: he's like, oh, he's only twelve goals behind for Golden Boo. 459 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 2: It was really funny. 460 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 6: Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention this Liverpool 461 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 6: after the red card with Nick Pope like, they still 462 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 6: conceded one point seven spectacles and thirteen shots to Newcastle. 463 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 2: All on set pieces. 464 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: Yeah right, let's not act like, yeah, let's not lack 465 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:36,920 Speaker 1: like this defense is suddenly back. 466 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 5: I'll be a majoralty because he had Newcastle team total 467 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 5: over again, I did. 468 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 3: Madrid as his tradition. 469 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 2: I might take a venecious shots on target over again. 470 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 3: Yeah old days, yeah or not? 471 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 4: Maybe debout courtois over nine and a half saves and 472 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 4: dear Milan, this is Wednesday. They are minus one thirty 473 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 4: four hosting port though out of Portugal, plus four hundred 474 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 4: to draws plus two sixty anty. 475 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna turn it to you. These two teams. 476 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 3: The odds tell us. 477 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 4: That enter should they're one of the bigger favorites to advance. 478 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 4: They're minus two twenty five plus one sixty two. You 479 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 4: think the ceiling unenters like pretty high in this tournament. 480 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 4: We talked about it a little bit. They're hanging around 481 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 4: in that mid tier like thirty three to one. We're 482 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 4: all kind of expecting that the next round to look 483 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 4: pretty sow like just beatable for basically anybody. Why are 484 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 4: they a team that you believe can can do it. 485 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 5: That's the thing, Like, I don't know how high the 486 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 5: ceiling is. I think their floor is super high. I 487 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 5: think they're a good team that they've done it in 488 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 5: Europe and they've shown they can compete with teams like 489 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 5: Liverpool and then you know, got through a good, you know, 490 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 5: good showing in the Champions League group. 491 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 2: In a tough group. But like, how high is the ceiling. 492 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 2: Can they beat a Buyer or a City over two legs? 493 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 2: I don't know. 494 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 5: I'm like kind of iffy on that, but I don't 495 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 5: think there's anybody else that they couldn't. Like, you know, 496 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 5: we've seen them beat Napoli and really shut down Napoli 497 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 5: in a year where all of the teams at the 498 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 5: top except City have defenses that make you kind of cringe. 499 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 5: Inter might be like the second best defense in the 500 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 5: whole tournament. Left you can like, who else is better defensively? 501 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: Benefica? 502 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, so you love Benfica other than them, Like I'm 503 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 5: just kidding, I don't know, there's not really a lot 504 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 5: of great defenses. So you run some good set piece variants, 505 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 5: you defend really well, and you have a high floor 506 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 5: and you get a bounce or two in a wide 507 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 5: open field like inter for me, is the team that 508 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 5: like has the floor, whereas like you know, Napoli, the 509 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 5: price isn't there anymore. You go down the list like PSG, 510 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 5: I think is super flawed. Real Madrid Liverpool don't defend 511 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 5: and you can, I mean reality and defend. Last year 512 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,360 Speaker 5: they won the Champions League, so like you can ride 513 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 5: a hot goalie or something. But like they're they're an 514 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 5: interesting case and I don't think it's a bad draw. 515 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 5: I think minus one thirty four minus one thirty for 516 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 5: a first leg money line is too steep. I would 517 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 5: need like minus one ten to bet them. And I 518 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 5: don't think there's like a huge like tactical thing where 519 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 5: they're much better than Porto. I just think they're like 520 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 5: generally just like a better team and Porto Porto is 521 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 5: going to sit deep, They're going to force Intoy try 522 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 5: to break them down. Like this does profile as like 523 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 5: a lower scoring affair, But I think Interro will get 524 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 5: through ultimately and then you know, hopefully they get a 525 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 5: good draw. I mean, they could draw like Milan Spurs 526 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 5: in the quarterfinals and I'd feel pretty good about that. 527 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 6: What are your thoughts here, BJ, Yeah, so there's some Porto. Yeah, 528 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 6: so there's some injury concerns for Porto that have to 529 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 6: be mentioned. Otavio is going to be out for this leg. 530 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,959 Speaker 6: He will be back for the second leg. He's their 531 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 6: leader in an expected sist this season, so that's a 532 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 6: big Vanielsen, who's Tremi striking partner up top in the 533 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 6: four to four to two, is leading the team in 534 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 6: xt g P ninety. He's likely going to be out 535 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 6: for this match. Matteos Yribe, who's their main defensive midfielder 536 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 6: who's played the most nineties of any outfield player for 537 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 6: them this season, is also questionable for this leg. So 538 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 6: there's a lot going against Porto, And like you mentioned, Anthony, 539 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 6: they're gonna sit defensive in their four to four to 540 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 6: two like we've seen them do time and time again 541 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 6: in the Champions League, just trying to get the draw 542 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 6: and get this thing back to Portugal when they can 543 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 6: get all of those players back from injury and it's her. 544 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 6: I mean, they have in a even great form out 545 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 6: of the World Cup break. I mean they've lost one 546 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 6: match as a fluke loss to Himpolleye at home, like 547 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 6: Anthony mentioned they've beaten Napoli, they've beaten AC Milan twice, 548 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 6: they've beaten at Alanta twice, and most importantly, last six matches, 549 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 6: we've only conceded three point seven expected goals. So it's 550 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 6: a really good defense team moves an incredible form playing 551 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 6: against the team who's gonna set up very defensive without 552 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 6: two of their main attackers. So I only have two 553 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 6: point to eight goals projected for this one. Under two 554 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 6: and a half goals is getting pretty juicy at minus 555 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 6: one twenty five, so if that gets to minus one fifteen, 556 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 6: I'll play it, but I'll probably be looking to play 557 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 6: Porto in the second leg. I Venture wins this one 558 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,880 Speaker 6: and Porto gets all those guys healthy, because you might 559 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 6: just get in a nice inflated line with Inter So 560 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 6: under two and a half or anything, or if anything, 561 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 6: for me, the. 562 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 3: Other Wednesday match is quite interesting. 563 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: RB Leipzigs is fun. 564 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is fun, and it got to be more 565 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 4: fun after what happened this weekend. Leipzigs plus three fifty 566 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 4: hosting man City minus one thirty four the draws plus 567 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 4: two ninety to Advanced City minus five point fifty Leipzig 568 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 4: they are plus three fifty. 569 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 3: So you guys, I told you that. 570 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 4: Steve Cooper was just a genius, and we saw another 571 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 4: Cooper master classes this weekend seeing City draw one one 572 00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 4: against Forced. But that this is kind of why I 573 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 4: I like the Leipzig future. In all likelihood, they lose 574 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 4: this tie, they get trounced by City over two legs, 575 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 4: and that's it. Your one hundred to one ticket gets 576 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 4: set on fire by what six pm Eastern time on 577 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 4: five pm Eastern time on Wednesday. But we've just seen City. 578 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 4: They've just been so wonky this year. They've just had 579 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 4: these moments of just pure freakishness, and it gets a 580 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 4: good team. The odds of that happening are much greater 581 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 4: than they would be against Nottingham Forced or ever. 582 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 3: Atten at home. The Leipzig team is really good. I 583 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 3: think I think that I'd rather. 584 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,400 Speaker 4: Bet them long term than just to back them here 585 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 4: on the money line. So I'm betting them to win 586 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 4: the tournament. That's kind of going to stand as my 587 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 4: money line bet for this game. But I know you 588 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 4: two are both on this train with me. BJ yep, 589 00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 4: what are your thoughts here? 590 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 6: So yes, I love a life stag plus a half. 591 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 6: I've played them to advance at plus four to forty. 592 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 6: So these two obviously met in the Champions League last season. 593 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 6: Only one of the matches actually mattered. The final match 594 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 6: that was at Leipsig. City had already scaled up the 595 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 6: group and they played a bunch of reserve guys, so 596 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 6: it didn't really matter. But the first one was a 597 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 6: chaotics six' to three win For. City expected goals is 598 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 6: only two point three to one point. Three AND i 599 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 6: went back AND i watched the highlights BECAUSE i was, like, 600 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 6: okay you, know it's been a long. TIME i hadn't 601 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 6: really seen what happened in that. One first, off you 602 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 6: have to remember who was MANAGING Rv leipsig at that. 603 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 6: Point it Was Jesse martin no, comment one of the 604 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 6: worst defensive managers we've ever, Seen grace The bundesliga in 605 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 6: The Premier. League, ALSO i went back and looked House 606 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 6: city scored all their goals in that. Match it was 607 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 6: off a, corner an own, goal a, penalty A grealish 608 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 6: low quality, shot a Con salo streamer from twenty seven 609 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 6: yards and A Gabrielle hayes who's deflection. Goal it was 610 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 6: a lot of flukiness From city to get the ball 611 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 6: in the back of the. Net this is going to 612 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 6: be a, much much, different much BETTER Rb leipzig defense 613 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 6: that is only allowing one expected goal per ninety minutes 614 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,479 Speaker 6: Under Marco, rosa WHICH i think we got to Give 615 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 6: anthony credit BECAUSE i Think Marco rosa might be the 616 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 6: best manager in the. WORLD i went and looked Since. 617 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 6: September let me get to the point, Here, anthony Since september, 618 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 6: eighth when he was hired AT Rbi, leipzig they have 619 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 6: a plus one point two to three non penalty expected 620 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 6: goal differential per ninety minutes in The. Bundesliga Only barcelona 621 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 6: has a better mark over that time span THAN Arbi, 622 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 6: leipzig and they have a style of play that can 623 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 6: Give city so so many. PROBLEMS i, mean you saw 624 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 6: it out of The World cup break when they Played Byron. 625 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 6: Munich it was a perfect. Example byron controlled fifty eight percent, 626 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 6: possession But leipzig held them to seven shots and other 627 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 6: than the goal that went in from chew Of mote 628 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 6: inside the six yard, bucks every other shot That Byron 629 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 6: munich had had next year rating under point. One so 630 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 6: we have AN Rb leipsig offense that is Under rosa 631 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 6: has created thirty eight point six expected goals in his 632 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 6: twenty one matches in. Charge and they've been out with 633 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 6: been Without christopher And kunku since before The World cup. 634 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: Break he came back from. 635 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 6: Injury Against wolfsburg this past, weekend so their offense is 636 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 6: only going to get. 637 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: Better and can we. 638 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 6: Talk about the fixture pile up For city right, now 639 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 6: because this is going to be their fourth match in 640 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 6: ten days and their third straight match on the road 641 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 6: in less than a. Week that's a lot of travel 642 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 6: And pep has not rotated at, all maybe one or 643 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 6: two throughout those, matches but it's going to have been the 644 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 6: same starting eleven pretty, much so the legs have to 645 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 6: be tired For city at this. Point so this is 646 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 6: a wonderful spot For, leipzig who obviously had a great 647 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 6: showing Against wolfsburg this past. Weekend SO i love them 648 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 6: plus a half plus one o five to advance at 649 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 6: plus four to, FORTY i think that number is wonderful 650 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 6: because if you Love leipzig in this first, leg you 651 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 6: can play back On city and have a nice hedge 652 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 6: opportunity in the second leg as well to. Advance so 653 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 6: And obviously we've already bet, them you, know at one 654 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 6: hundred to one to win The Champions. League so, yes 655 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 6: tremendous spot here For leipzig can Give city all sorts of. 656 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 2: Problems. 657 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, Look i've been saying this About rosa for half four, 658 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 5: years three, years and you know it wasn't a great 659 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 5: fit At, dortmund but it's clearly working here At. Leipzig 660 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 5: they're the best defense in The bundesliga for. Me and 661 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 5: they allow the fewer shots for, ninety they allow the 662 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 5: fewer shots on target for. Ninety they allow the average 663 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 5: longest shot, distance which something you talked, about and if 664 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 5: we talked About city this, year like their average shot 665 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 5: distance is further from the goal than it was last, 666 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 5: Season they're getting fewer. 667 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 2: Shots it all has the recipe for. 668 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 5: An Overinflated city on the road in the first leg 669 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 5: in a matchup they don't necessarily need to. 670 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 2: Win you, KNOW i still think that. Matters you, know if. 671 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 5: It's the eighty fifth eightieth, minute eighty fifth, minute you're 672 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 5: not going to See city growing numbers. Forward you, know 673 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 5: when it draws a fine result for, THEM i think 674 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 5: that does matter because so many times in like a league, 675 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 5: match you'll see a, favorite you, know risk to try 676 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 5: to get the three points instead of you, know at 677 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 5: the risk of losing. One in this case With, pep 678 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 5: we've seen it time and time and time. Again pep 679 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 5: went in doubt in These Champions league, ties goes to, 680 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 5: conservative not too, aggressive and it hurts, Them it costs, 681 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 5: them you, know because they're the better team and they're 682 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 5: they're lowering the. Variants SO i think the matchup is 683 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 5: fine for For. Leipzig they're comfortable out of, possession they're 684 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 5: good defending out of. Possession they have really good individual. 685 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 5: DEFENDERS i, think you, know the main one of the 686 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 5: main reasons That leipzig has, been you, know as good 687 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 5: as they've been defensively this year is that the personnel 688 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 5: is just better than it was last year, too with you, 689 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 5: know their defense taking steps forward or bomb is, good 690 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 5: Like gvardiole has been like a breakout star at the center. 691 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 5: Back so they have the. Pieces and then In kunku 692 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 5: And werner are like super stars in transition With werner's 693 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 5: pace and his his passing underrated passing range and In kunku's. 694 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 5: DRIBBLING i mean that's just like a really capable counter. 695 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 2: Attack what we've seen. 696 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 5: Is you're gonna Hit city up the wings with, pace 697 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 5: And werner loves making that run into that, channel and 698 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 5: Then kunku with his ability to dribble through. 699 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 2: Anybody it's gonna be. 700 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 5: Dangerous SO i Like leipzig at home first, half first 701 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 5: leg plus a. 702 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 2: Half love. 703 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 5: It my favorite bet for the for The Champions league group, 704 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 5: stage probably have all of the, bets to be, honest. 705 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 2: The Europa. 706 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 4: League now we'll Talk united In.

Barsa, 718 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 3: yeah By Loo. 719 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 4: Barsa but this is basically do you sell How? United 720 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 4: i'm kind of interested in The catalans, Here, anthony what 721 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 4: are your? 722 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 5: Thoughts, Yeah i'm gonna place a bet THAT i don't 723 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 5: Think i've ever, placed but it's a fun way of 724 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 5: me truly thinking this is a coin flip. Match i'm 725 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 5: gonna take both teams to score and this match to 726 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 5: be a, draw so to go to extra time at 727 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 5: plus three Ten and the WAY i see, THIS i 728 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 5: do have a little bit of value On barsa a little, 729 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 5: bit BUT i think this is SOMETHING i highlighted. Earlier 730 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 5: we saw the problems That barsa has every time they 731 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 5: go up and in attack quality Against they've gotten exposed 732 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 5: defensively and that was very evident with uniteds kind of 733 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 5: just clogging the defensive, middle winning the ball and breaking, 734 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 5: immediately which is something they're very good. 735 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: At barcelona is very bad at. 736 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,800 Speaker 5: Defending with their they want the game to be slow 737 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 5: unit it wants to be, fast and it was a 738 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 5: very up and down game in that Favored united in 739 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 5: the first. LEG i, think based on tenhawks, comments this 740 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 5: in theory. 741 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 2: Would be a bad spot Because united has A cup 742 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 2: final On. 743 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 5: Sunday but based On tenhawks comments to the fans and 744 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 5: in the post match, today like he's talking about like 745 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 5: we need to bring It, thursday we need to go 746 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 5: all out we need to Beat. Barcelona so it seems 747 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 5: to me that he said squad rotation and spoppy, damned 748 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 5: we're putting our best guys out there and they've been 749 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 5: playing really. Well sancho is the player for, me that's the, 750 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 5: key that's the that's the ceiling razor For, united because 751 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 5: right now it's Just Marcus rashfer like he's unreal incredible, 752 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 5: form but eventually he will cool off and when he, 753 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 5: does the attacks kind of. Mid but If sancho is 754 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 5: going to bring back the production From, dortmund you know those. 755 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 5: Levels now you've got a really, fun, dangerous good team 756 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 5: that can Rip barsa a part. Here SO i THINK 757 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 5: i like both teams to, score AND i think this 758 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 5: is a. Draw WHAT i think will likely happen is 759 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 5: you're gonna see these two teams somewhat. Similar it'll be 760 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 5: open to, start BUT i think as the match, progresses 761 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 5: you're gonna see both teams take fewer and fewer, chances 762 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 5: to the point where if it is tied, LATE i 763 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 5: think you're going to see it turn into a little 764 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 5: bit of a. 765 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: Stalemate and if. 766 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 5: It's, NOT i really don't trust either defense right now 767 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 5: to stop, anybody because they haven't been able to, Mean 768 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 5: barsia was getting every look they wanted from. Crosses united 769 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 5: was getting in the penalty area with runners at. 770 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 2: Will So i'm taking both teams to. 771 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 5: Score, yes and the draw at plus three, TEN i 772 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 5: think we're gonna get some extra extra free soccer. Here 773 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 5: no away goal rule, anymore so it's not like at 774 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 5: one to, one you, Know barsia has to go for. 775 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,959 Speaker 2: It so both teams to score and, draw just like. 776 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 3: In the First, like, uh, yeah bj what are your? 777 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: Thoughts, YEAH i don't Hate ACTUALLY i was just. 778 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 6: LOOKING i don't really hate to look at the over 779 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 6: which is just two and a half minus one ten right. 780 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 1: NOW i, mean you guys In. 781 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 6: Alahanam united was able to do whatever they wanted Against. 782 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 6: BARCELONA i was really disappointed In barcelona's. Counterpressing that's what 783 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 6: Makes barcelona so. Good it's when they lose the ball 784 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 6: in the final. Third they're able to counterpress a lot 785 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 6: of these lower half sides and they go the ball 786 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 6: back and going. Forward united only had three ten plus pass, 787 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 6: sequences but they were able to get fifteen penalty box 788 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 6: shots Against. 789 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: Barcelona like it. 790 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 6: WAS i was, like you, know, obviously somebody who hates Match, 791 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 6: united who's came on this podcast many many times and 792 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 6: say they.

WELL i mean they're also fighting 893 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 6: for a top three spot In, portugal so you know 894 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 6: they'll still have to take it a little bit more. 895 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:24,920 Speaker 6: Seriously BUT i Mean sporting hasn't been that good in 896 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 6: The Portuguese Premier. League there's still a plus point nine 897 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 6: expected gold differential per ninety, minutes but Again portugal seventh 898 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 6: most difficult league In europe by U way for coefficients 899 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:33,919 Speaker 6: ten marks, seventeenth SO. 900 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: I don't see a path Where mitchellan. 901 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 6: Is going to be competitive. Again SO i have actually 902 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 6: A sporting projected at minus two oh, two SO i 903 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 6: love the value on. Them mis one Ten, Anthony, Yeah. 904 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with a uve over in a knockout, 905 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 5: tournament BUT i actually think that there's past success for 906 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 5: both attacks. 907 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 2: Here you've we'll be going on the road. 908 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 5: Here their defense away from home has been even more. 909 00:42:59,000 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 2: Suspect but they. 910 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 5: Really just don't do a very good job of breaking 911 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 5: up play and they have the highest pass completion percentage 912 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 5: allowed in all Of italy and they pretty much just 913 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,439 Speaker 5: pack it in And darye to beat. Them, Now nons 914 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 5: had major problems Stopping you've in the first. Leg you've 915 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 5: a pretty much got whatever they wanted the first twenty, 916 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 5: Minutes you've a took their foot off the gas, pedal 917 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,439 Speaker 5: and then right After non equalized you've went back into 918 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 5: like we need to score mode and should have had 919 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 5: a penalty maybe two missed a huge. Chance like they 920 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 5: were able to kind of get what they, wanted and 921 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 5: so the FINAL xgi from the first leg was only 922 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,439 Speaker 5: about two point. 923 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 2: One BUT i actually think. 924 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,839 Speaker 5: It was a little bit misleading when you look at 925 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 5: some of the other numbers box entries and passing the penalty. 926 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 5: Area not was able to get the ball into the 927 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:41,879 Speaker 5: area a decent, amount AND i think at home they'll 928 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 5: have more. Success So i'm actually gonna bet the over 929 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:46,479 Speaker 5: two and a. Half it's a pretty plus, number plus 930 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 5: one twenty. FIVE i like the over two and a. 931 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 5: HALF i just think that the first leg was misleading 932 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 5: and that this leg will be more open and back and, 933 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,240 Speaker 5: forth and like you know we've talked, about you've a defensive, 934 00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 5: regression like they're just not as good as their numbers 935 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 5: suggest non to. Finished they're like a mid Table french, 936 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 5: defense and they finished with a over one and a. 937 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 5: Half spectacle is allowed in the group stage of this, 938 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 5: tournament so it's a bad defense THAT i Think you've 939 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 5: could take advantage. Of Maybe i'm gonna be reading Four vlavich, 940 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 5: now so he probably will miss three big. 941 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 4: Chances all.
