I'm thinking to bet some of my hard-earned cash on it. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals to 2.05 in odds..

What are your thought about this game? United are favorites but should they be? For me it's hard to tell who'll win here.. but with Uniteds attacking capabilities and Sanchez in goal scoring form again I think btts and o2.5 is plausible..

pardon my ignorance in betting, but what does 2.05 in odds mean? Or the stuff you and Tiki were spewing in the other thread about 1.05 odds

2.05 mean you multiply your bet by 2.05
Example: You bet 100 Euros, multiply it by 2.05, and if you win you get back 205 Euros.
And I would maybe think about draw today, but would like to hear from Tiki too, his bets are worth trying.

We did it!

Very entertaining game! Arsenal did well, congrats you guys. ManU diving all over the place...

Can someone tell me the foulcount of Marouane Fellaini, please?

@quickzy didnt touched this game, was unpredectibale for me, i dont play overs or teams scoring only results...

Today only played one shot on Brest Ligue 2 at 1.45...

Will play only EL thursday, Madrid odds vs schalke and Bayern are too low as usual, in the league or CL no difference.
Madrid 1.2, Bayern 1.16.

Waiting for EL to make 2 or 3 one shots...

@raimondo There's quite many who doesn't know what that means, it's bit surprising for me, because I think it's way more simplier than this 7/2 or 11/3 system. Btw quikzyyy explained it well.

It's quite simple really. 100% divided by Chance = The Odds.

For instance, if the brokers or experts expect Barcelona to beat Rayo Vallecano 94% of the times they play, the odds will be 100/94=1.064. The odds were in fact lower than that for the last Barcelona game.. This means if you put a 100 euro bet on this particular game you could win 6 euros.. 100 * 1.06 =106 euros back if you win.

So the bookmakers approximately think that Barca would win this particular game 19 times out of 20. Some stupid people actually bet on poor odds like that. But the bookmakers will always make sure to have a margin. Simplified this means that if 90% bet on a Barca win, 8% bet on a draw and 2% bet on Rayo to win for 40 times the money or so, the amount of money they pay out never exceeds 100%. They price their odds to make sure that sufficient action is taking place on both sides. Thus, Supply and demand and the risk you're willing to take to earn a higher profit.

No need to explain it, either way there will be no bookies if they were loosing...

Predicted 1.4, actually its 1.42...

Man City odds VS Barça 7.5 for an away win, even Malaga or Villareal have less odds and without the first leg score, knowing that Barça could be Happy for a draw or saving enrgy for Clasico in 3 days, 4.75 for a draw that would still qualify Barça, look at how the PL holders are underdogs in bookies minds...

See how stupid your point is ? '' The club are weak look at their odds VS Barça and Madrid bla bla bla ''

Then look at PL holders odds VS Barça....

Bookies gave City 1.43 odds VS Burnley this weeknd, now by your logic judging by odds the gap between City and Burnley in term of level is the actual gap between City and Barça in term of level...

Keep judging on odds, budgets, and number of fans or Stadiums....

You' re welcome.

LOL what are you trying to prove? The odds were the same 9 days ago. I know that you checked it up and I certainly checked it up as well. Or are you trying to tell me you guessed the odds right? LOL.

Also, why adding my post to the above picture as it has nothing to do with the upcoming CL game between Barca and City?

Last but not least, why do you think the odds are as they are, if you think about it? Would you bet on Barca to those odds?

Yep i guessed them. That wasnt that complicated...

hahahah no you didn't. As you are a regular gambler I find it hard to believe that you managed to avoid to see the CL odds when they came out..which was quite a few days before that even.. Who are you trying to fool?

"Bookies gave City 1.43 odds VS Burnley this weekend, now by your logic judging by odds the gap between City and Burnley in term of level is the actual gap between City and Barça in term of level..."

Ehm. Who has ever said that the difference in odds determines the difference in levels of teams? Obviously the odds are determined by a number of factors. Comparing two matches with each other? Especially a league game against a CL game.. LOL. Just LOL.

I'm talking about throughout a season. City have not had any odds less than 1.2 against any opposition in PL. Meanwhile Barca has LESS than 1.2 against more than half of the opposition in La Liga. Often down at the 1.05 to the 1.06 range.

But alright..Regarding that game.. First of all you underestimate Burnley, along with all PL teams. Furthermore, in the 11 games before the Burnley game City had only won 4 and 4 draws and 3 losses. They're in bad form. I would never bet on them to those odds.

Now again, think long and hard about why the odds are as they are in the Cl game my friend. I guess that won't be hard for you as you certainly predicted those odds 9 days ago ;);)

So please explain to me what you are trying to prove here.

'' I'm talking about throughout a season. City have not had any odds less than 1.2 against any opposition in PL. Meanwhile Barca has LESS than 1.2 against more than half of the opposition in La Liga. Often down at the 1.05 to the 1.06 range. ''

The simple reason is that City isnt as regular as Barça, now can you understand it ?

If I can understand it? Yes I understand it perfectly fine. Do you?

"The simple reason is that City isnt as regular as Barça". No, that I did not understand.

"So please explain to me what you are trying to prove here?."

I don't understand this either^

If you do not understand it than i can do nothing for you...

I have obviously explained to you that I do understand it all. What I don't understand is the following:

1. What you are trying to prove here?

2. "The simple reason is that City isnt as regular as Barça" <- I don't understand this sentence.

3. Why you compare the odds of a PL match with the odds of a CL game?

4. Why you bump this thread in the first place?

Lastly, City is an underdog against Barca. They wont win this game. But would you bet on those Barca odds? I doubt it.

tiki? answer plz.
