Anyone else find it very weird that Spurs play Real tonight in Munich even though they are away to united early on Saturday? I guess they have been committed to play that match for awhile but even still it seems a bit crazy.

United to start well with a comfortable win on Saturday all things considered?

It does feel very close to kick off. I was surprised. Not ideal preparation

Gone for Ivanovic to be booked @3.05 on Betfair

Think it's a decent price. Sent off the last time he played in a Charity shield match. Fancy that Arsenal forward line to pull a card out of him.

No good. Thought it was sorted in the first half when he came in on the back of Cazorla's ankles and gave away a free.. ref didn't pull a card till well into the second half though.

small bet on under 2.5 in Monaco vs Young boys @ 1.87

Monaco are one of the best away teams in Europe but they struggle to score at home

4-0.. you'd never see a Ligue 1 team concede 4 goals in Monaco

BATE Borisov -vs- Videoton FC, Videoton FC +0.5 @ 2.69
BATE Borisov -vs- Videoton FC, Videoton FC to advance to the next round @ 3.8

AC Milan to beat Spurs at 7/5. Spurs are playing their third choice keeper.

Milan must be playing their 4th choice keeper.

Lads, for the Arsenal v West ham game on the weekend the asian goal line is set to a very nice 3.0 so the bookies are banking on a few goals possibly going in.

I know West Ham have been terrible in the Europa league but will they really ship more than 3 goals to Arsenal on the first day? to my mind the fact that the season is starting earlier this year means even less fitness and sharpness than usual on the first day. From Infor and Mr green's post before this West Ham are holding a lot of the starting XI back from the europa tonight too in order to be fresh for the weekend.

I'm tempted to go under 3.0 goal line @1.950, with the addition of cech in goals the chances of Arsenal letting one in are even slimmer than before. I think worst case scenario it's a refund.

Under 2.5 goals in Chelsea v Swansea looks decent too. Costa most likely not fit to start so Falcao and Remy are the probable options up front.

Any thoughts?

all over Aberdeen tonight at 2.1

2-1 down from the first leg in Kazakhstan, they conceded 2 early screamers and did well to claw their way back into the game and get an away goal. Manager is confident about tonight and 20k+ expected for the match, can see them raring to go.

Cheers Mr Green, Chelsea are definitely good starters (Southampton the worst from something I read a few days back)

Those Swansea results from last year do put me off the unders, also I remember Chelsea smashed Burnley first game in 1-3 last year. Burnley were coming at them though as they were at home. I'm pretty sure it was just 2-0 on opening day at Stamford Bridge the year before but will have to look it up. Either way I might just leave it at unders in the Arsenal game for a bet.
