Shut up.

BJ Cunningham and Anthony Dbundo from The 18 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 2: Ringer sitting in with us here and together the three 19 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: of us will go through the upcoming matches in the 20 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 2: Champions League on Tuesday and Wednesday. We've highlighted a bunch 21 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 2: that we want to get into. Give out some bets. 22 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 2: We'll do it underdog Parlay three legs and then our 23 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: best bets for match week two, and right off the top, 24 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 2: I do want to say it's kind of fun to 25 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: not really know the stakes of a Champions League like 26 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 2: match week because after match week one in the old format, 27 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 2: you kind of had some must win games depending on 28 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 2: the schedule, it like shook out, and I know you'd 29 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: have to do home and away, but we've got no 30 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 2: idea how this thing has got to shake out, which 31 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 2: is kind of fun. The picture is not clearer at all, 32 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: and it's going to take some time for it to 33 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: get clear. That said, pretty big one for Arsenal BJ. 34 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: I would say the stakes are maybe the highest for 35 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: them of all the teams in match week two, considering 36 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: the opponent and what happened in their first match and 37 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: just their wobbly form injuries. Mikail artetas is is he 38 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 2: on the hot seat? Beji with the Gunners US one 39 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: minus one thirty. The Gunners are at home hosting PSG 40 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 2: PSG plus three sixty the Jaws plus two eighty, So 41 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 2: a heavyweight clash at the Emirates and I don't I 42 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: know you're gonna be on Arsenal here. I disagree. I 43 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 2: think PSG's where the bet, but you can go first. 44 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I think the price is really well on 45 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: Arsenal for being honest here because the way that this 46 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: match sets up, how how does PSG consistently break them 47 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: down and create a bunch of chances? It really is 48 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: only on the wings for them. And what Arsenal is 49 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: gonna do is they're gonna double them up and they're 50 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,839 Speaker 1: going to force PSG to play through the middle. And 51 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: the other aspect of this game I think is very 52 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,119 Speaker 1: fascinating is you know, Arsenal has and playing terrorism ball 53 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: and everybody hates them for it right now, but they 54 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: if we go back to even like last season and 55 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: sometimes early on this season, they are the best, one 56 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: of the best high pressing teams in the entire world 57 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: when they go man to man and PSG doesn't get 58 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: tested at all in League un And if you go 59 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: back through their Champions League results, the one team that 60 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: comes close to Arsenal in terms of their physicality and 61 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: being able to press high was Newcastle. And when PSG 62 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: went to Newcastle, they got hammered for to one and 63 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: Newcastle played extremely direct and it won them the match. 64 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: So PSG, now that they don't have Mbope, I don't 65 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: think they really have a striker they can put in 66 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: the middle if Arsenal decides to go five four to 67 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: one or four four two and just like sit really 68 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: deep and compact like they did against Tottenham or like 69 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: they did, you know against Manchester City when they were 70 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: down a man. So I don't really see an avenue 71 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: for PSG to consistently create high quality chances. And the 72 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: other aspect is PSG's going to build out of the bad. 73 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: They're not even going to try to play direct against Arsenal. 74 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: So if Arsenal's able to turn them over high, that 75 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: gives them some ability to create chances in those you know, 76 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: transition type opportunities. The other aspect is I'm not so 77 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: sure PSG's midfield has enough ball stopping to stop Arsenal 78 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: through the middle. I know Oda guard's not available. I 79 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't be shocked if the sixteen year old Ethan Nuenieri 80 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: starts this game. He was brilliant against Lester in the 81 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: final twenty odd or some minutes when he came on. 82 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: And Arsenal's always going to be amazing on set pieces 83 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: and PSG really doesn't have you know, set piece offense 84 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: as they saw last year through the Champions League or 85 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: even in League Gun and the final thing I'll leave 86 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: you with. You know PSG, if you go through how 87 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: they were away from Paris in the Champions League, they 88 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: conceded close to one and a half expectacles for ninety 89 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: minutes and they didn't really play that many elite offenses. 90 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: So I know that Arsenal's offense isn't that good. I 91 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: know their set piece FC, but a lot of Arsenal's 92 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: issues come from teams that just sit like super super 93 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: compact against them. They don't have a way to play 94 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: through it. PSG's not gonna do that. They're gonna allow 95 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: space and they're gonna allow Arsenal to be able to 96 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: play through them. So I have Arsenal minus one, so 97 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: I think the price is low. And also Arsenal's coming 98 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: off creating five expectacles against Leicester, so Arsenal minus when 99 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 1: they're back, they're back. 100 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 2: They're so back. 101 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 3: I think the question is like, do you really think 102 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 3: Arsenal is gonna come in a home Champions League match 103 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 3: and just like sit deep and absorb pressure if they 104 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: go ahead, they will mean that would surprise me. I 105 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: think it's interesting, like who has the ball here, and 106 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 3: how does that make that match play out? Because I 107 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 3: agree with a lot of what you said with like 108 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 3: PSG defensively away from home, shaky, PSG defensively in the midfield, 109 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 3: shaky PSG striker situation shaky. But Bradley Barcolaw is putting 110 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 3: up some crazy early season numbers. It's like a tiny sample. 111 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 3: He's twenty one getting almost one point one XG plus 112 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 3: x A per ninety Like always been like an intriguing 113 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 3: prospect and now he's kind of just become killing and 114 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: bo in over the overnight. Now A little skeptical of that, 115 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 3: but like they have the attacking talent to ask questions 116 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: of Arsenal. And I do wonder you mentioned the format 117 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: leave off, Like does this format kind of lend itself 118 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 3: more to open games because there's fewer stakes, and that 119 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 3: what we tend to see historically is that fewer stakes 120 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: mean more goals. Ah, there's not a ton on the 121 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 3: line here, Like Arsenal went to Atlanta and played truly 122 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 3: terrorism ball, but at home here, if PSG wants to 123 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 3: give it a go, PSG having bank three points and 124 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 3: Arsenal is willing to do it, I almost want to 125 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 3: bet the over here, but the thought of laying minus 126 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 3: one thirty five on an over two and a half 127 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 3: on an Arsenal match is nauseating to me quite frankly. 128 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I do think the format does, especially in matches 129 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 2: like this, right Like, I have something I'll say for 130 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,799 Speaker 2: towards the end of the show about Radoslava and City. 131 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 2: But I do think that the format will lead to 132 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 2: more or should in theory, lead to more risk happy 133 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 2: soccer in the beginning stages before anyone knows what they're 134 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: they're dealing with in terms of the the stakes and 135 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: where the must win situations are, and so until we 136 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 2: get to the business end of the league phase, I'm 137 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: not sure. But yeah, BJ, I just ourselves been just 138 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: so wonky. They've been wonky and it's not it's been 139 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: what a since the last international break you would say, 140 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,559 Speaker 2: since oder Guard I guess got hurt, which makes sense, 141 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: right like you can kind of draw a direct line 142 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: to the two things, and is down on league and 143 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 2: PSG overall as we are, they'll still been good like 144 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 2: and they're they've beaten a couple of Champions League teams 145 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 2: in there, so this is still a dangerous opponent. I 146 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: think that it's not like f underdog on the board. 147 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: But I I just I haven't been convinced with Arsenal, 148 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: and they were really good against Leicester and uh did 149 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,679 Speaker 2: not deserve to be put under any sort of pressure 150 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 2: of losing or draw of losing points in that match. 151 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: But it was Leicester City and they were still it 152 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 2: was still you know, four to two, and then uh 153 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 2: the draw against at a lot even that. The Tottenham 154 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: game I think could have went in a bunch of 155 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 2: different directions as well. So I just haven't been as 156 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 2: convinced by Arsenal of late. So I would lean towards 157 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: PSG here. 158 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 3: I hope. I hope Arsenal gets bet out because like 159 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 3: if if they do to plust one, I'll hop on 160 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 3: PSG for sure, certainly lean that way. 161 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 162 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 3: Again, it's like Arsenal wants to do this no ode 163 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 3: guard thing again and sit really deep, like I wouldn't 164 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 3: feel comfortable laying laying spreads with them. 165 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 2: Okay, that's breaking, Anthony, Yeah, they I mean he pushed 166 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: the spread this week, that's true. That was true. 167 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 3: I know a friend who had Lester plus two and 168 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 3: he was celebrating a little early and then somehow it 169 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 3: got to four two. But in the end, like if 170 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 3: you had the Arsenal spread, you probably deserved to cover there. 171 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, Yeah, not the way I expected Arsenal to 172 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 2: to cover or to push a spread there. You think 173 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: everyone was just like, yeah, it's gonna be too nil 174 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: and pretty who hum. Not quite. That's a three pm 175 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 2: Tuesday kickoff. Let's move on to another kickoff on Tuesday 176 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: at that time, which is Byer Leverkusen, the defending Bundesliga 177 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: champs there at minus one forty five at home, posting Milan, 178 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 2: who are plus three seventy Here the draw is plus 179 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 2: three twenty Anthony, it's I would lean towards the underdog 180 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: here based on just what we've seen out of lever cousin. 181 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 2: I think they've still been good. Just the big picture, 182 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 2: looking back towards last year. What's the gap like between 183 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 2: these two teams? Is it? Is it this wide? Do 184 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 2: you think? I would say probably not. I think Melan 185 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: could be a lot trickier, and I do think that 186 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 2: there's something to be said just about a clash of 187 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 2: styles generally, Like I know, Milan plays a little bit 188 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 2: more open like the high event this year and that 189 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 2: in uh in Syria, but different kind of nut to 190 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: crack for Leverkusen compared to what they see week in 191 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: and week out in Germany. 192 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't really know what to think of 193 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 3: Milan at this point. They had some good results in 194 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 3: syriat the last couple of weeks, but this defense looks 195 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 3: very vulnerable to teams that can play in transition and 196 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: they're going on the road, uh, and they just got 197 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 3: you know, whacked at home by by Liverpool. And not 198 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 3: to compare Liverpool and Leverkusen, because you know, Liverpool's still 199 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 3: got better talent, but like Leverkusen is so good at 200 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 3: at happily in transition and dominating in transition and if 201 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 3: that's the biggest hole for Milan here going on the road, 202 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,119 Speaker 3: I just kind of see a lot of paths to potential, 203 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: like this is a route And we look back and 204 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 3: we're like, why was Levercuson only minus won forty forty 205 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 3: five at home? Shouldn't they been laying a goal? And 206 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 3: I know it's crazy for me to come on this 207 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 3: podcast and say, actually I kind of like Leverkusen, but 208 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 3: this number is almost cheap to me based on just 209 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: what I think of Milan more so than when I 210 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 3: think of Leverkusen. 211 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: It's dropped too. It was minus one sixty seven and 212 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: then Leverkusen I got against Byron. 213 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, but again, right, they lost a buyer or they 214 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 3: excuse me, they lost on the balance of chances to Buyron. 215 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 3: You know, you downgraded them for that. But I don't know. 216 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: They clearly went to Byron with a very clear plan 217 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 3: and because they got the early goal, they didn't really 218 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 3: have to change their plan because they were never losing. 219 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 3: So I kind of thought that they just sat in 220 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 3: and said, all right, go ahead, luck Byron, and Byron 221 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 3: created more chances, should have won the game, but it 222 00:11:55,520 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 3: wasn't like it was overwhelming from Byron. So I don't know. 223 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 3: I kind of think Leverkusa went there to do a job, 224 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 3: did the job, and now they come home and they're 225 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 3: a little cheaper because of it. 226 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:06,079 Speaker 1: Yeah. 227 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 3: I also just don't trust the German teams against the 228 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 3: Italian team, so we'll talk about that later. 229 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:11,479 Speaker 2: Yeah. 230 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 3: The defensive solidity of these Italian teams, that's what I'm saying. 231 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: It seems to. 232 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 3: Always play well. That's that's the scary part for me. 233 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I once again at the price I got. 234 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 2: My favorite bet on this match would be like Milan 235 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 2: on the on the money line, people just like snuff 236 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: out the game and win one zero or something and 237 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 2: make it into a true rock fight. Bja anything here. 238 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 1: No, I'm going to pass, which is kind of surprising 239 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: the number drops minus one thirty five. I think it 240 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: might be somewhat in range for me. Yeah, Milan is 241 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: They're interesting to say the least, because now there's there's 242 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: talk that fun sake his jobs on the line that 243 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: they're already floating who candidates out there after just this 244 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: kind of a little bit of a slow start. 245 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 3: I think the Milan derby bottom some time, all right, 246 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 3: I think after that. But once they got smoked by 247 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: Liver like it started before Liverpool. Then they got routed 248 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: by Liverpool and it was like, oh man, this is 249 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 3: this is ugly. But I mean the personnel is not. 250 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 3: The defensive personnel stinks. 251 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: Yep, it's a problem. Yeah, it's bad, and it's just 252 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, even if you watch the match against Liverpool, 253 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: they got one transition attack off of a corner and 254 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: I was just kind of it, you know, So yeah, 255 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: this is tough. I mean, I mean the way there's 256 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: there's you know, two avenues to play lever cousin. It's 257 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 1: just like sit in really compact and just let them 258 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: circulate the ball around, or it's do what Atolanta did, 259 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: but facing Loon's not cut out to do that. So yeah, 260 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: this is a past for me. Interesting to watch this 261 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: number though and see how it kind of drops. 262 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: That brings us to Dortmund and Celtic. This one is 263 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 2: in Germany. Uh Dortmann's minus two fifteen. Celtic is five 264 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 2: to one, the draw is four to one. Celtic has 265 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 2: a up a goal yet in the Scottish Premier League, 266 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: so that's fun. Dortmund, meanwhile, after making it to the 267 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: Champions League final last year, been a kind of stop start. 268 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 2: I would say this year they've won three of five 269 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: but one loss was glaring to say the least, and 270 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 2: they've just had weird results all over the place. They 271 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: shipped to to hide and Him in a four to 272 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 2: two win, they shipped to to Boach them in a 273 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: in a four to win. Yeah, it's a I don't know, 274 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: it's just a weird team and I don't think all 275 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 2: that different in a weird way from what they were 276 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 2: last year, which would be like, oh, well, they made 277 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 2: the Champions League final last year, but we kind of 278 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: know how they got there. So I don't know, if you, Jake, 279 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 2: and can we make a case here for the for 280 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 2: the underdog? 281 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, we definitely can. 282 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 3: You always have a shot against You always have a shot. 283 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 4: I mean, they're always going to give you or ten 284 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 4: someone said on Twitter, and I think it's very true, 285 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 4: but Nuri Sahein's Dortmund is like one of the worst 286 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 4: coach teams in Europe right now. They're so so bad defensively, 287 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 4: and really what it comes down to is the fact 288 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 4: that they're building out in this you know, two to 289 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 4: two one or a bunch of different type of. 290 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: Formations and they're playing a high line. They're just leaving 291 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: themselves completely vulnerable to any type of transition attack. And 292 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: so now you get into a situation where Celtic, who's 293 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: been in the Champions League many times, if you I know, 294 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: they didn't do really anything offensively last year, but if 295 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: you go through the teams that they played, it was fine, 296 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: Ord Lazio and Athletic Coo Madrid. All those teams are 297 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: way better in terms of defending and transition than Dortmund is. 298 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: So I've been thinking of a number of different ways 299 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: to play this match. I think my favorite bet overall 300 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: for it is just both teams to score at minus 301 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: one forty five, which I don't think anything involving Dormant. 302 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: I mean, we just had Dortmund and Bocum's both teams 303 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: to score with minus one fifty. Now we're getting a 304 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: cheaper price on Celtic, so I mean, Celtic has some 305 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: really good tap, really good attackers that can hit Dortmand 306 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: and transition here. So yeah, it's it's bad with Dortmund 307 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: right now. And I think you know, even if you 308 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: watch them against Bruges in their first Champions League match, 309 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: I mean they were they were incredibly lucky not to 310 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: concede a goal. I know Bruges only created one point 311 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: two expected goals, but they had so many threatening attacks 312 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: right inside Doortmann's box. So both team to score at 313 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: minus one forty five. I mean, I think I project 314 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: this more north of minus two hundred, which is just 315 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: kind of the state that we are here with Dortmund. 316 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: I mean, they're defensive numbers. It's funny they're conceding the 317 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: exact same expected goals for ninety minutes this year, as 318 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: they did last year in the Bundesliga, and now we're 319 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: looking at all them like, oh my gosh, they suck 320 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: whereas last year but it was like, oh, maybe Doortman's 321 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: not that bad defensively. So I think it's also an 322 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: aspect that Dorman just doesn't have the center backs if 323 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: you're going to play a high line and build out 324 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: with only two center backs to cover to that much ground. 325 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: So I like both team to score minus one forty five. 326 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: I'll be on Celtic's money line as well. What scares 327 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: me about Celtic taking them plus one is that Dormant's 328 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: offense is actually pretty dang good, Like if they can, 329 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: they can. They have a lot of pieces there and 330 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: you saw that. You know once you go ahead against them, 331 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: like Guirassi and Brands and all of their their great 332 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 1: attackers can do a pretty effective job at breaking down 333 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: teams that want to play compact, and Celtic is is 334 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 1: not the type of team that's just gonna that is 335 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: good sitting in that low compact defensive block because they 336 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: never get tested in the Scottish Premier League. They're always 337 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: pressing high on Brandon Rodgers, so both teams score minus 338 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: one forty five. For me, this one the best. 339 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 3: Way to describe Dortmund right now is we talked all 340 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 3: of last year about Brighton's defensive transition being bad and 341 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 3: how they had all these issues in midfield because nobody 342 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 3: was really good at ball winning. Now you know, they 343 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 3: may have somebody with Blaba, but Pascal Gross was the 344 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 3: guy that they relied on for their midfield and then 345 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: they sold him to Dortmund and Dorman are playing him 346 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 3: now and him and out of Emery Chohn's got to 347 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 3: be thirty five. Now that's the midfield. But they started 348 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 3: over the weekend against Bochum, So there's no way that works. 349 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: That. 350 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I agree entirely. I just this screams like 351 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 3: Celtic one point six xg. They missed a bunch of chances. 352 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 3: Kobel makes a bunch of say yeah, that's the only 353 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: thing that scares me, like yeah, I mean, of course, 354 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 3: from a numbers protective it makes no sense that this 355 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 3: number is this low. Crazy as the Pascal Gross was 356 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 3: their big midfield edition this summer. 357 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: And Emra Chan by the way, it's only thirty your kids, 358 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 2: This is crazy. 359 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would have guessed, like thirty five feels like 360 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 3: he's been Yeah, he sounds like he left Liverpool at 361 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 3: like twenty six. 362 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: He's thirty years old and years played for He played 363 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: for Germany at the two thousand and six World Cup too, 364 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 2: So it's sad both of those things have to be 365 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 2: true because I could swear I saw saw him playing 366 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 2: with Michael Ballack at that World Cup. Okay, another German 367 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 2: team at home, that's Leipzig hosting Juve. Plus one thirty 368 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 2: on Leipzig, Youuve plus two ten to draw is plus 369 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 2: two forty five. Another clean sheet for Juve and domestically 370 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 2: over the weekend, to kill the. 371 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: Man, But you can't kill the idea of Michael. 372 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 3: What if they just don't go all season? 373 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: How'm I was gonna say, like, who who gives up 374 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 2: a goal first? Between them and Celtics, it's fun because 375 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 2: Celtics in obviously uh much softer environment compared to Juventus. 376 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 2: But Uventus is a better team and it's so cool. 377 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 2: This is this is my kind of team. Man. Just 378 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 2: go out there with the sole purpose of not trying 379 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 2: to give up a goal. That's what soccer is all about. 380 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 2: And I like them here at plus two ten, another 381 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 2: situation chance for an Italian side to bring uh you know, 382 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 2: early aughts Syria to to a Bundesliga venue and muddy 383 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: up the pitch a bit. So I don't know. I 384 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 2: think that they've got a great chance of pitching another 385 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 2: shut out here when that gives them a chance to 386 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 2: win it plus two. So I like you, Anthony, Yeah. 387 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 3: No idea if you've even tries to go win this game, 388 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 3: if they don't just play for the draw. But I'll 389 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 3: be damned if I don't bet them as a dog here, 390 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 3: sizable road dog. You mentioned the defensive metrics. I don't 391 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 3: need to like repeat that because we all know what 392 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 3: the situation is there. But I did think it was 393 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 3: interesting against PSV in the last match. Like PSV very 394 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 3: much uses its full backs aggressively, and Juventus was able 395 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 3: to take advantage of those opportunities on the flanks in 396 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 3: transition running the channels. Leipsig also likes to use their 397 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 3: their fullbacks aggressively. I think that will create opportunities for 398 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 3: similar things. I mean, if you were to say PSV 399 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 3: and Leipzig, their presses are not all that different. They 400 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,239 Speaker 3: play a very direct, quick forward passing vertical style, and 401 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 3: you've had a ton of success kind of just waiting 402 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 3: for the mistakes and then countering and creating big chances 403 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 3: off them. So I think this is a decent stylistic 404 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 3: matchup for Youuve. And like you said, they haven't conceded 405 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 3: a goal. It's not they played a bunch of bombs. 406 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 3: They played role, but they played Napoli didn't concede either 407 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 3: of those matches. So I really like what I'm saying 408 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 3: from Uve. I'm going to keep buying them to the 409 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 3: market adjusts, I agree. 410 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna play something a little different here. I'm gonna 411 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: go Leipzig under one and a half team total, which 412 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: you can get a minus one fifty right now. You 413 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: mentioned that they haven't conceived a goal in Syria, It's 414 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: not like people are just creating a bunch of chances 415 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: and they're getting lucky and fortunate. Not a single team 416 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: has created over half an expected goal against them. And 417 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: like you mentioned, Anthony, Anthony like, how Leipzig creates most 418 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: of their chances and how they're good is when they 419 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: can play vertical and play in transition. But Youvey is 420 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: just not going to allow them to do that. And 421 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: outside of the you know, good performance against Augsburg over 422 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: the weekend, Leipzig hasn't been that good offensively. I mean 423 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: they haven't created over one and a half expected goals 424 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: in any of their other matches. So yeah, I'm projecting 425 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: Leipzig right around one goal. So if they score two 426 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: goals here to my cap and we'll move on. 427 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 3: Two point two xg allowed in six matches in Syria. 428 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: How I mean, I don't know. I don't see how 429 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: Leipsi is getting to getting to unless we have a penalty, 430 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: some goals, some goalsund box. 431 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 2: And that's exactly what we said about City and Arsenal 432 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 2: when they played and we were we were totally we 433 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 2: were totally right about to do. 434 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 3: This right set piece. I mean, you know, they stopped 435 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 3: enforcing the rules on set pieces, which there was. I mean, 436 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 3: it's the enforcing this bizarre yellow card rule, which. 437 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, sure so, which also has UH been on the 438 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: wrong end of twice. 439 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 3: All right, let's do a twenty minute recap of our 440 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 3: of the Premier League. 441 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 2: True, you veased twenty five to one to win the 442 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: Champions League still, and I know it's come down a 443 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 2: little bit, but they're just quite interesting. 444 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 3: Aren't they leave off? 445 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 2: Are they gonna become? I mean we can do maybe 446 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 2: we just do a dual forecast here, just at Letty 447 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 2: versus juve In in the in the final, and then 448 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 2: we bet the over five and a half red cards. 449 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 2: It'll probably be played behind closed doors just because the 450 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 2: environment would just be too crazy. Liverpool up next day 451 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 2: or minus five hundred. They bounced back quite well from 452 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 2: the lost to New No's tricky Trees a couple of 453 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 2: weeks back, took care of business against me La and 454 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 2: bourn Myth Wolves and now their minus five hundred at 455 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 2: home to Bologne who are eleven to one. Josh plus 456 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 2: six point fifty here. The one thing I'll say is 457 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,640 Speaker 2: this number is longer than the number was, or it's 458 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 2: right around where Forrest was. Like, that's the one thing 459 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 2: that kind of jumps off the page to me. I'm 460 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 2: not gonna say that one way or another in this match, though, 461 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 2: I do think that you can look at the nil 462 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,239 Speaker 2: nil a little bit at eighteen to one, because I 463 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 2: think what we'll see from teams, especially as underdogs against 464 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 2: Liverpool and the Champions League is they'll they'll just come 465 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 2: to shut up, shut down shop and I don't think 466 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 2: that Arna slots Liverpool is going to be as you know, 467 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 2: just just won't be as potent as Jurgen cops at 468 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 2: being able to handle that situation. We saw it against Fourst. 469 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 2: So I'm betting that Bologna shows up to do that. 470 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 2: Whether they're able to get on the board, who knows. 471 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 2: But so I think eighteen to one on the nil 472 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 2: nil is actually quite interesting. We had a couple of 473 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 2: these hits in the last match week of the Champions 474 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 2: League and with Arsenal and City, so why not given 475 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 2: another shot here in a big number bj so'm I'm 476 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: just gonna look at this thing to be really really 477 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 2: ugly and Bologna to come here with one goal in mind, 478 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: and that's not to let up any goals. 479 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: I agree, there's two different bets. I kind of like them, 480 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: kind of wavering between the two. Liverpool to win nil 481 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: is minus one ten right now and under three at 482 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: plus one ten would be the two ways that I 483 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: would look at this. Vincenzo Italiano, I don't like him, 484 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 1: In fact, I hate him. 485 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 3: Booze we do this last podcast. 486 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: He sucks man. He can put up all these great 487 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: possession and field tilt and build up numbers all he wants. 488 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: They can't create crap and that goes back to last 489 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: year at Fiorentina as well, where they had the lowest 490 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: sex sheep for shot in Syria. Ah, they you know 491 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: on the weekends. I know they got a red cart 492 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: in like the sixtieth minute, but zo point one against Atlanta, 493 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: who has just been shipping goals left and right to everybody, 494 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: that's terrible. I mean, they they had a good performance 495 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: in there, and it's clear they just missed. They just 496 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: missed Serxi a lot. They just don't have a striker 497 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: really that can make up for his type of production. 498 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: But they created over three expected goals against an Essay 499 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 1: in their first match, and then they haven't created over one 500 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: expect gole in any other match like it's been. It's 501 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: been bad and I just don't see with how improved 502 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: this Liverpool defense has been good defensive performance against Wolves 503 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: over the weekend help them to point six expected goals. 504 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: I just don't really see how they're really going to 505 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: threaten Liverpool's goal. And you're right, Michael, they probably aren't 506 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: going to come with it being an away match to 507 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: kind of set up shop and really just and play 508 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: that compact defensive structure that they played under Mata last year. 509 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 1: But if you watch them against Shaktar, I mean it 510 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: was a struggle to get to one expected goal for them. Like, 511 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: so Liverpool is a much better defensive team. So I 512 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: projected two point six goals, So under three and anything 513 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: plus money is good enough for me. But I'll be 514 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 1: looking at Liverpool to win Neil as well. I may 515 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: end up playing that, but right now I'll go under 516 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 1: three at plus one ten. 517 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, Liverpool one under three and a half is intriguing 518 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 3: to me. It would be surprising Liverpool ran up the 519 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 3: score here just because of how they've played underslot like 520 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 3: they are not pushing for those extra goals. I know 521 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 3: it is a little bit more incentivized with this current setup, 522 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 3: but even still Liverpool under three and under three and 523 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: a half is probably where I'll look here. Shut out win. 524 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 3: You know, it does enable you a little bit more 525 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 3: leeway if this gets to like Bologna sneaks a goal, 526 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 3: Liverpool wins two one type deal is still more on 527 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 3: the table. So I agree with bj Like the watching 528 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 3: Bologna against Shacktar was nauseating. They got to one XG 529 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 3: because of a deflected ball that felt the guy right 530 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 3: in front of the goalie and he still didn't score. 531 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 3: That was like half of the XG. It was a 532 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 3: lot of just oh, the winger has it, Dan and 533 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 3: Dou has it and then he sends it across to No. 534 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 3: One and it gets cleared. So they're definitely lacking insights fiveness. 535 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 3: I'm just you know, Italianto his system works if you 536 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 3: have a talent attacker or two. They just don't really 537 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 3: have that right now. So agree on this. 538 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 2: One that brings us to Benfica and at Letty. This 539 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: one in Portugal Benfica plus two A five at home 540 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 2: at Letty plus one forty five on the road, the 541 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,479 Speaker 2: draws plus two twenty five wild scenes at the Wanda 542 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 2: Metropolitano today. You know one one drug against real Madrid 543 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 2: batteries or a lighter thrown at t Baucortoi. 544 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 3: There's a bag of poop too, bag of poop proper 545 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 3: Madrid Darby. 546 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: That's a that's poor behavior, poor behavior, if I do 547 00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 2: say so myself, poor form, but funny. Nobody at hurt 548 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 2: and look from a New York Islander fan where no 549 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: strangers to throwing debris detritus on the on the ice 550 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 2: so that no, no, you guys are good classic fan 551 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 2: base behave well, I got nothing here. I mean Benfica 552 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 2: beat me last week or last two weeks ago. Should say, 553 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 2: I don't know what what it's going to be like 554 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: for Diego Simeoni's men following that Darby. But uh, bja, 555 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 2: you do think that the underdog has some legs? 556 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: Huh yeah, my numbers are telling me to play Benfica. 557 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: Not the biggest fan of Puna Lage if we're being honest, 558 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 1: and I didn't think they were that good against Red 559 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: Star in their opening match. The art yea arts Cogo 560 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: got one on the back post that was basically their. 561 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: Entire x she. 562 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 3: But from the free kick, yep, exactly. 563 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: I love arts Cargo by the way. He's awesome. A good, 564 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: good signing for Benfica, but horrible spot for at Letyco. 565 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: Maybe you can answer this question for me, Anthony, But like, 566 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: why is La Liga just shoehorning midweek matches in week 567 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: after week after week? Like what are they trying to 568 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: make Copa del Rey like, you know, a singular weekend event. 569 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: I don't understand it because this is gonna be Athletico's sixth, 570 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: fifth or sixth match in fourteen days. Like this is 571 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: a it's a horrible spot for them. And you know, 572 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: Benfica hasn't played anybody in Portugal. Their numbers are great. 573 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: They did lose some guys this year, but they retooled. 574 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: Like I said, arch Cooglu. They've got a striker from 575 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: al Kamar who put up thirty almost thirty goals last season. 576 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 2: In the year to be sa. 577 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: So I think this is a better spot for Benfica. 578 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: They have they have the rest advantage. 579 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 2: You know. 580 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: Of course Athletic tried to play late Sunday and then 581 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: transition all the way to the you know, play on 582 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: play on Wednesday. So tough spot for Athletico. So I 583 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: like Benefica as a short dog here. Probably play them 584 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: drawn up that you know, plus anything, you know, plus 585 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: one ten or better. Just kind of a numbers play 586 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: for me. No real, not really keen on ben Fica, 587 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: but just really really bad spot for Athlettigo. 588 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the total is low over two and 589 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 3: a half minus one ten. Was not impressed at all 590 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 3: with Benfica's defense. I know they only give up one 591 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 3: XG in the match against Zagreb, but you know, Zagreb 592 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 3: had a ton or Belgrade, but they had a ton 593 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 3: of chances, and they were consistently putting on pressure like 594 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 3: Belgrade had them penned in the second half for most 595 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 3: of the half. It was kind of alarming how little 596 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 3: control Benfica was able to have on the game. And 597 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 3: Diego Simone talking about the system in the format and 598 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 3: how it changes things, and he said that you have 599 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 3: to go play to win, and I think it's legitimate. 600 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 3: I mean, if you watched it Letty, they were much 601 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 3: more open. Granted they went down a goal early, so 602 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 3: that kind of impacted things. But and Letti was not 603 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 3: like going to grind their way to results and play 604 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 3: the traditional Letty way. It was not any of that 605 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 3: in the first match. And I don't really think they're 606 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 3: going to continue to do that. Like you said, there's 607 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 3: such little stakes they get to win the first match. 608 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 3: Now they go on the road, Benfica will be open. 609 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 3: They'll have chances on the break to hit Benfica. Uh. 610 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 3: And I think this this total is just a touch low. 611 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 3: Two and a half. 612 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: Acid Villa and Byron up next. This one takes place 613 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: at Villa Park where they are plus three thirty underdogs 614 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 2: Byron Munich traveling at minus one thirty five, the draw 615 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 2: is plus three twenty. Byron currently sits atop the Champions 616 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 2: League League Phase table after match week one, thanks to 617 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: a nine to two victory in their opener. So not, 618 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 2: I don't think there's too much to kind of glean 619 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 2: from that. I this match feels like it could be 620 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 2: pretty chao chaotic, maybe four, like a four to three 621 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 2: kind of situation. 622 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 3: But ah, what do we do with Bayern? That's the question. Yeah, 623 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 3: Like it's because they've looked super super super good defensively 624 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 3: in the Yeah, I. 625 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 1: Think it's a great matchup for them. 626 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,719 Speaker 3: I bet Villa this Sunday. They didn't show up, and 627 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: now I'm going to fade them, and I kind of 628 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 3: like them next weekend and I'm like, okay, I'm gonna 629 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: bet them on the weekend. They'll probably they didn't win. 630 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 3: Then I'll probably fade them during the week they'll probably 631 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 3: get a result, and then I'll bet them against United 632 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 3: on whatever that is, and they'll United will make their 633 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 3: bi annual appearance at the Premier League. 634 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: I just here's the thing. I'm not so sure that 635 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: Unai Emery's system is actually set up to even like 636 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: hold Byron in check right, because I mean they've played 637 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: basically nobody this season. They you know, they lost to 638 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: Arsenal in the second match of that, but they've been 639 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: basically nobody. So no dynamic attacking teams on their schedule exactly, 640 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: and now you get maybe the most dynamic attacking team 641 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: in the. 642 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 2: N the one dynamic attacking team they played, they should 643 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 2: have should have beat them and never did. Yeah. 644 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: But so the thing with Company, and I was doing 645 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: a deep dive into Byron because I wrote up the 646 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: preview for Leverkusen and Byron and Companies. Yeah, I know, 647 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: I said on the pod. I was like, I a 648 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: pick that everybody's gonna hate, so go read it. But 649 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: Company is doing He's really really aggressive in possession, and 650 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: he's doing a lot of different build up structures, like 651 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: at times it's even like a two to one seven, 652 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: Like he's doing everything just to overwhelm and overload the opponent. 653 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: And with the ability of all the attackers that they have, 654 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: with Kine and Musila, the way they're able to interchange 655 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: and drop deep. I'm sorry, but if you're asking villain 656 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: and you're gonna play a high line against the attackers 657 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: that Byron has right now, that's not gonna work. I 658 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: know Uniam read beat Byron two years ago, but I 659 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 1: have a hard time seeing how they're actually going to 660 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: be able to defend all the attackers and how overwhelming 661 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: Byron's gonna be. And the flip side of it is 662 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: is Byron is just their defensive numbers are so good 663 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: because they're so freaking aggressive with their counterpressing and they've 664 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: been so effective with it. So when they're trying to 665 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: build through the middle and they're trying to do all 666 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: these overloads and everything, I mean, you have to be 667 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,439 Speaker 1: able to once you win the ball, play a quick 668 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: ball over the top and try and get to Byron 669 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: into like a two v two or a one v 670 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 1: one situation. And nobody's really been able to hurt them 671 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: that way. I mean, the last two matches against Vertebremen 672 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: and Leverkusen three total shots and point one x g 673 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: and it's all counter pressing. That's really all it is. 674 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: And aston Villa has that. You know at times this season, 675 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: again they haven't been tested, they haven't faced really a 676 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: team that's going to press them the way that Byron's 677 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: going to if we can go back to last season, 678 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: whenever they played good teams, they just shipped goals because 679 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: they kept turning the ball over in their own final third, 680 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: and they tried to build out of the back, and 681 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: they're just not a team that's set up to play 682 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: extremely direct. So I think it's a horrible matchup for them, 683 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: and I like Byron quite a bit. Here. They're minus 684 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 1: you know, one thirty five right now, I'd play that 685 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 1: up to minus one forty five. I think I'll play 686 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 1: some alts. I think Byron's gonna hammer them. 687 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 2: Okay, that brings us to the last match that we'll 688 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 2: kind of really sink our teeth into before going some 689 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 2: rapid fire and then underdog parlay time and best bets 690 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 2: Lilt five to one underdogs against Real Madrid minus one 691 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 2: eighty five for Carlo Ancelotti's men, And like we said, 692 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 2: they are coming off of that pretty emotional derby, so 693 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: interesting spot for them. The Jaws plus three forty not 694 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 2: too much for me here. Spot is a little weird. 695 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 2: I did think that Real Madrid was maybe a little 696 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 2: the score line flattered them a little bit match Week one, 697 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 2: the three to one win, but not too much here, Anthony, 698 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 2: what do you got? 699 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, not much here. I think I really would have 700 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 3: loved to have bet last year's low plus one at 701 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 3: the spot at home, but this year's low is a 702 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 3: lot less interesting me. 703 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh, the lines come down a little bit. 704 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 1: It was minus two hundred then after the you know 705 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 1: the drawn to Darby. Obviously in Bappe is going to 706 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,839 Speaker 1: be out. Courtois got injured as well, so Lunin's gonna 707 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 1: be in that which is you. 708 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 2: Know, I don't think that upgrade. 709 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's almost an upgrade. 710 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, upgrade. 711 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,720 Speaker 3: Whoever, if they if they go from Lunin to courtois upgrade. 712 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 3: If they go back to Lunan upgrade, Yeah, it doesn't matter. 713 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: And I mean real Madrid is you know again, same 714 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: same boat as a bloody coat. They've been playing a 715 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: ton of matches as well. They have. They've been doing 716 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of roaded like they rotate their midfield 717 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 1: pretty much every single match. But Bellingham plays every game. Uh, 718 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: you know, their their back line is basically playing all 719 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: so again, I mean, if listen, if you're gonna give 720 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: if I could get Lil at plus one and a 721 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: half in the spot, like that that interests me. But 722 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: we're we're sitting at plus one. 723 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's interesting. So the last one thing I 724 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 3: do like to watch, uh you know, take note of 725 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 3: how much the Champions League markets move in the final 726 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 3: day leading up to matches and kind of see pattern 727 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 3: and see where hey, like somebody who has a lot 728 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 3: of market influence really hates Lil or they really like 729 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 3: Sporting because no game moves more than that. One last 730 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 3: time out, Sporting ran out to like minus one thirty 731 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 3: thirty five forty out to like two minus two hundred. 732 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 3: They got bet very aggressively, and so if you see 733 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 3: real Madrid take money here, I'm not afraid to play 734 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,240 Speaker 3: against team but I just think it's interesting. You should 735 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 3: know if you're betting this stuff seriously, like where is 736 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 3: the market moving? Because it will tell you some things. 737 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 3: And Sporting is interesting to me. They took a lot 738 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,799 Speaker 3: of money, They looked really good their first game, and 739 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 3: now they're I have them correctly priced. But I'm interested 740 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 3: to see if I'm just a little slow to how 741 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 3: good this team is. 742 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: Okay, rapid fire, real quick. If you got anything else 743 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 2: BJ that you want to touch on, yees, stupid guard 744 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 2: to the underdogs. 745 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: Yes, Stutgart sparks to Prague over three and a half 746 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 1: plus one twenty to kick things off. Stutgart's defense is 747 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 1: it's terrible. They lost both their center backs. They're just 748 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: shipping goals left and right. 749 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:58,439 Speaker 3: Sparta pros. 750 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: Yep, yep, that's right. Sparta prog put up two and 751 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: a half expected goals against Salsburg. Salzburg under peplenders, which 752 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 1: is Colaps Disciple played very aggressive in terms of their 753 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: pressing and trying and they just got They got roasted. 754 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: So the same thing can happen here to to Stuttgart. 755 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: Girona and FI and rd interesting match over three plus 756 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: one ten. You know, this is really a game where 757 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: if a goal goes in, it's really just going to 758 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 1: go off the rails because Girona their offensive numbers actually 759 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 1: have still been pretty good in La Liga, averaging more 760 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 1: and a half expected goals, and if they go behind, 761 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: they're going to get uber aggressive with they're pressing, trying 762 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: to overload when they're in possession. Whereas you know, if 763 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 1: if Girona scores first, I mean fin or it's gonna 764 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: come have to come out and press them, and their 765 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: press hasn't been very good so far. If you watch 766 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: the match against Leverkusen. I know Leverkusen only created one 767 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 1: point seven, but they were really really bad defensive. So 768 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: I like the over there and I like one more, 769 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna save it for the underdog session Anthony. 770 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 2: Anything else. 771 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 3: I already look at the dock, so I know who 772 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:13,919 Speaker 3: beat his underdog is and it saddens me to my core. Yeah, 773 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 3: I really don't love the board this week. You know, 774 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,720 Speaker 3: I know you're going to talk about brought to Slava 775 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 3: in a second, so I'll just push the forward to you. 776 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 3: Like this board was one of the more I looked 777 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 3: like throughout the whole thing, and I was just like, 778 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 3: this is a pretty weak slate. You have one high, 779 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 3: super high profile match and then it's like hmm around 780 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 3: around the from a betting perspective, and the sample is 781 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 3: so small that I still want to kind of get 782 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 3: more information on these teams before I. 783 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 2: Just light up the board with bets or you could 784 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 2: bet you brought us Lava a score first or with 785 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 2: the first half against man City. Just this the City 786 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 2: thing giving up goals in the beginning of games. It's 787 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 2: just like not turning on is that we've seen through 788 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 2: a few matches this season, going to try to play 789 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 2: it again at a big number and they're going to 790 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 2: a weird, weird environment three right, yeah, and look like 791 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 2: I'm not doing it. 792 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 1: There is a three and a half minus one fifty 793 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 1: out there for Brough Slava. 794 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,800 Speaker 2: Is This is the other thing though, is like I 795 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 2: don't know Holland plays. 796 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 1: They don't have another striker. 797 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,399 Speaker 3: But that's the other problem. Yeah, I mean they don't 798 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 3: need a striker to be brought Aslava. 799 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 2: Though they don't. I don't know, man, they got harm. 800 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 3: That's the thing. And I talk about this like cane 801 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 3: golden boot. I just don't know how Pep seriously plays 802 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 3: Holland here. I mean they had to be responsible at 803 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 3: some point if you could figure out whether Holland's playing 804 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 3: or not, and Holland's out. I love I love plus three. 805 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: We have half on Fulham this weekend too. Against City. 806 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 3: I think I like the undermore. Yeah. 807 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 2: Anyways, I'm betting Bradislav at a score first and I 808 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,399 Speaker 2: probably like split a small steak on first half. Money 809 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 2: line happens. What was it was it last year or 810 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 2: two years ago where City fell behind? 811 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: That was against That was last year I started start 812 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: right fifty to one. I think I had a fifty 813 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: forty five and fifty to one ticket. 814 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 2: I was one that would happen. 815 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 3: There was still forty five to one. 816 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, there is a forty seven to one on 817 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: brought a slava out there. But man, they're bad, Yeah. 818 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:22,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're bad. 819 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 3: They always like somewhat interested in or semi curious about 820 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 3: getting into soccer. I don't think he's actually that serious 821 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 3: about it. But like we were mentioning teams to maybe 822 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 3: get involved. 823 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 2: With, and he brought up You said brought a slava. 824 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 3: No, we said, Byron. It was two days before the 825 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 3: nine too, and he was like nine too, Like I 826 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 3: thought soccer was low scored. Uh they scipions league record 827 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 3: in his first match. So obviously fascinating. 828 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,240 Speaker 2: It and he'll definitely be in after brought a slava 829 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 2: goes at one nil to City at home. I just 830 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 2: the games that in in Slovakia. Cities just run through 831 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 2: a little they run through a little bit of a 832 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 2: cold lit I just think it's a weird sleepy spot. 833 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 2: We could catch them with their their their heads down 834 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 2: a bit. After the Newcastle job, I mean it was 835 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 2: Arsenal Newcastle Champions League. Before that, it's been a what. 836 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 3: Is the score score period? 837 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 2: To score period? Well, like I said, there, so they're six, 838 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 2: there's six to one. They're six to one to score first. 839 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 2: They are fourteen to one to win the first half and. 840 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: Plus plus one fifty to score. This is this is 841 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: Norwich Chatory here which. 842 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 3: They're at home. 843 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:42,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they're at home. 844 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 3: That's kind of tempting and the like I keep it in. 845 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 3: Some say they have a rodri thing, like they look 846 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 3: bad and defensively on site. 847 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 2: Man, this this is it. This is the opportunity to 848 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,760 Speaker 2: win the title. Crazy, you have the favorite? 849 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, Arsenal liaboff? Are you get a root for Liverpool 850 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 3: to win the title? Just stick at the club? No, okay, 851 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 3: just making sure that's like that seems like a kind 852 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 3: of thing you would do. 853 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 2: Oh absolutely no. 854 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 1: They hate run. 855 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 2: It's he's not bigger than the club. He's not bigger 856 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 2: than the club. Tottenham old Tottenham hand and Stoke City legend. 857 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 2: Kevin Wimmer for Brados Lava is thirty to one to 858 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 2: score and he scored for them last game, so hey 859 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 2: why not. But on that note, let's talk underdogs BJ 860 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 2: We've teased it so you can go. 861 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 1: First, Shock Tar then Esku plus four twenty five a 862 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: neutral site against Adelanta at Alanta outside of their game 863 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: against Bologna, who we already talked about. This weekend has 864 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: been just shipping goals left and right in Syria and 865 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,919 Speaker 1: people are just starting to figure out the Manda Man press. 866 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 1: They're just playing direct, they're playing over top of it, 867 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 1: and they just have not been able to defend it 868 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 1: at all. And the Alanta offense has really taken a 869 00:43:56,520 --> 00:44:00,760 Speaker 1: dip since Coop Miners went to Juventus, since Kamak got injured. 870 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: You know, Lookman is an incredible attacking player, but when 871 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 1: he has those two guys available, he can That's what 872 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: allows him to actually go one v one against a 873 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 1: lot of these teams. So teams are just keying up 874 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,280 Speaker 1: on him. Shocktar. I mean, they weren't that great against Bologna. Offensively, 875 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 1: they got a penalty, but otherwise they didn't do anything. 876 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: They have some talented guys. Suda Koff will go for 877 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 1: a lot of money probably at the end of the season, 878 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: but last season in the Champions League they were pretty 879 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: good at these neutral site games. They beat if you 880 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 1: remember they beat Barcelona, they beat Antwerp, they lost to 881 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: porton their opening one, but the way out Alana has 882 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: been defending going away from home. Like I think it's 883 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: a good spot here for Shocktar so I like them 884 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 1: at plus four twenty five. 885 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 2: I was kind of wavering between a few teams. I'm 886 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 2: gonna land on Celtic here at five to one against 887 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 2: dortmun just try to beat this sieve of a defense 888 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 2: with a Celtic team that got off the blocks well 889 00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 2: against Radoslava, which isn't easy to do. Five to one 890 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 2: win in match week one and they haven't let up 891 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 2: a goal yet in the Scottish Premier League. They're not 892 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 2: gonna be able to hold Dortmund out. But I do 893 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 2: think that if this thing does run back and forth, 894 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 2: there is it better than five to one chance at 895 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 2: Celtic can get the job done. Anthony, what do you have? 896 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked about him. BJ likes the over. I 897 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 3: mean Stutegart. Their defensive metrics are shocking in the Bundesliga. 898 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 3: They looked poor against They came out and blitzed Real 899 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 3: Madrid in the first thirty minutes. It was eerily similar 900 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,399 Speaker 3: to the Champions League final where like Stutgart came out 901 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 3: or dormant in the case of that one, came out 902 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 3: like pressed them, like kind of overwhelmed them, and then 903 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 3: as the match continued it got really ugly defensively for 904 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 3: Dortmant And in this case Stutgart, they've given up eight 905 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 3: expected goals in five matches in Germany, and it's not 906 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 3: like they've necessarily played a murder's row. Wolfsburg, Dortmund Glodbach 907 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,399 Speaker 3: mines two point three to they blew multiple leads of minds, 908 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 3: Freiburg away like they've been horrible. And Prague came through 909 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 3: qualifying and like looked really impressive, and we mentioned them 910 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 3: last year, like we're a pretty competitive team in that 911 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 3: Europa League last year, you know, taking out Galatasaray, went 912 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 3: toe to toe with them in Gala until the red 913 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,240 Speaker 3: card kind of sunk them. Like they're a very capable team. 914 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,839 Speaker 3: So I don't think the gap is this big. And 915 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,839 Speaker 3: I like Prague at plus five fifty. 916 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 2: All right, we got ourselves a doozy here at two 917 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:32,760 Speaker 2: hundred and four to one, smart a product Shocktar and Celtic. 918 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 3: So I go back and forth between fading and betting 919 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 3: stut Card like every other week, so it's been kind 920 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 3: of fun. Time to fade them next week. 921 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 2: Okay, best bets for match week two of the Champions League, Anthony, 922 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 2: you can get us started here. 923 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 3: All right. I'm gonna go with Juventus drawn, no bet. 924 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 3: You could take them plus a quarter, you could take 925 00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,319 Speaker 3: them on the money line, but I'm gonna go draw 926 00:46:56,360 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 3: no bet here against Leipzig. I just think this is 927 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,879 Speaker 3: extremely elite in possession and the way that Leipzig likes 928 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 3: to press teams out of possession. They like to get 929 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 3: their their wing backs and their fullbacks very involved and 930 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 3: very aggressive. And it's not all that different from what 931 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 3: PSV did in the first match. I understand PSV is 932 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 3: not as talented is as Leipzig, but the similar kind 933 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 3: of flaws and defensive transition exists on the wings. I 934 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,520 Speaker 3: think that's where Juventus took advantage of PSV and can 935 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 3: do the same in this matchup. Really think You've is 936 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 3: the most underrated team in this field right now, amongst 937 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 3: the top half. So gimme Uve and the Tiago Mata 938 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,280 Speaker 3: and the boys to grind out a result here away 939 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 3: from home. 940 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 2: All right, We're aligned on that one. My favorite bet 941 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 2: is you've at plus two ten. I just don't think 942 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 2: they're going to give anything up here, BJ, And I 943 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 2: do think this is if you want to bet Juventus 944 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,360 Speaker 2: to win the Champions League twenty five to one, you 945 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 2: still got a chance before they wreck Leipzig and that 946 00:47:55,400 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 2: number comes down even further. So you've what do you got? BJ? 947 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,800 Speaker 2: The old lady? Should we just go all three of 948 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 2: us on Juve here? 949 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 3: Sure? Why not? 950 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 2: You'll men? 951 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,359 Speaker 1: Do you know I'll do my best bet Leipzig team 952 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 1: total under one and a half, right, we'll all we'll 953 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: get all angles here on Juve. Uh yeah, I don't 954 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: see how how is Leipzig get into two goals here? 955 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you've a and they haven't conceded goal obviously 956 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 1: in Syria, but no, Siriati mis created over half and 957 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: expected goal against them. The only goal they concede it 958 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 1: was in stoppage time when they're already up three to 959 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 1: nothing against psv SO. And that's kind of just core 960 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,880 Speaker 1: principles of Fiago Mata. It's a very compact structure, very passive. 961 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 1: They're not going to press, and like Anthony said, really 962 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: how Leipzig creates a lot of chances and how they're 963 00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 1: good is when they can get Openda and Cessco in transition. 964 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,720 Speaker 1: They're not a team that really consistently breaks down low blocks, 965 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,799 Speaker 1: so and their offensive numbers actually haven't been that good 966 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: in the Bundesliga this season. So there you go, everybody, 967 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: all line, three different bets on Juve against Leipzig. 968 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, Up, Up, Up the old lady man, go go Uve. 969 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 2: I feel like this is as a trio we were 970 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 2: very anti Juve and never really got a chance to 971 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,439 Speaker 2: get around this bunch. But there are a mob now. 972 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:10,120 Speaker 3: So you went this two and a half years of 973 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 3: going against you and I've decided to buy it. And 974 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 3: it's it's a fun the circle of. 975 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 2: This is the way, right, Just shut it down, baby. 976 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: They're not This is not a whole lot different than. 977 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot more possession. They they do have 978 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,439 Speaker 3: a lot more of the ball than these two. But yeah, yeah, 979 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 3: that's defense in Europe. 980 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So there we got our reputations on 981 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 2: the line on Wednesday afternoon, as you've take on you 982 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 2: can take No. 983 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 1: One for. 984 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 3: The eight minute yeah, depend Benjamin Benjamin chessco header twenty 985 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 3: first minute one No twenty first Yeah.
