Soccer, Belgium, Jupiter League, Pick on 26.8.2006: Cercle Bruggy vs. Genk

Filed under: English version, Picks — mato at 3:50 pm on Saturday, August 26, 2006

Think we can cancel out a win for Cercle tonight, but a draw just might be possible, same logic as in the Mouscron game.

Again no "risk" from my side, think Genk got a good chance of winning this one, but suggest the asian handi.

The qualitify difference between these 2 squads is pretty huge imo, but somehow Genk most of the time manage not to win overthere, or do it there very hard way. Their players are piece a piece all better than the Cercle players at the corresponding positions on the pitch.

Genk have finally made a good start of the season, that's usually their problem, and they're blossoming with confidence at the moment. Especially the midfield is currently firing on all cilinders, with a very strong Soetaers, backed up by left-back Pocognoli, who's maybe the most promising youngster in this league. Chatelle is going well too, and the central duo of De Decker and Vrancken has only surprised me in a positive way. Bosnjak and Vandenbergh form a coherent couple upfront too.

Cercle are a pretty irregular "bunch" of players, I've never liked their style, imo they don't really belong in 1st division. Grnk should continue their surge upfront.
Cercle: Dantschotter, De Wulf, Guzelov, Portier, Van Mol, Grondin, Pinas, De Smet, De Sutter, Dekelver, Slovic.
Genk: Bailly, Caillet, Cornelis, Mikulic, Pocognoli, Chatelle, De Decker, Soetaers, Vrancken, Bosnjak, Vandenbergh.

Soccer, Czech republic, Gambrinus Liga, Pick on 26.8.2006: Ostrava vs. Kladno

Filed under: English version, Picks — mato at 3:46 pm on Saturday, August 26, 2006

After poor start into the season Banik started collecting points and from last two matches they have 100% effect. In last match against Slovacko after not so good 1st half and being 1:0 down Banik's coach Vecera decided to go for all or nothing and has thrown into the fire reserve attacker Zurka. That was a smart move by Vecera since Banik was constantly pressing in second half which resulted with two goals from Strihavka together with early mentioned Zurek and taking all three points to Ostrava. Kladno on the other hand played goaless draw with Zlin which has fulfilled his aim to take at least a point from Kladno in a quite a boring match with few shots on goals from both sides. It's worth mentioning that Kladno hasn't scored single goal so far in the league but Vecera is aware of that and warning his players not to relax against Kladno while Kladno's coach Koubek is hoping they can repeat their performance from the first round when they took one point from Sparta in Prague. All in all, if Banik shows a good preformance like against Slovacko in 2nd half, I think they will continue their mini positive series and snap another win for them. Banik has Lukes and Neuwirth out for this game but they are long term injured and haven't played in last round.

Soccer, England, Conference, Pick on 26.8.2006: Tamworth vs. Exeter

Filed under: English version, Picks — mato at 3:20 pm on Saturday, August 26, 2006

A fixture that jumps straight off the coupon really. I'll take any team that are likely to finish in the top 8 (such as Exeter) at above evens against the Lambs.

Tamworth struggled last year and are struggling again this season. They have the wrong kind of 100% record. 3 games has seen them concede 1l goals.

To address this their manager has once again got 4 signings in on loan - whilst letting defensive "rock" Matt Redmile leave the club. Panic buying like last season perhaps? (When he famously got Paul Merson in who promptly retired!) The fans are clearly unhappy and something's amiss if you're on loan signing number 4 with two weeks of the season gone. One's come from the Conference South, two from Yeovil reserves and a GK from Portugal.!

Exeter are one of the highly fancied teams in this section. There start under new boss Paul Tisdale according to fans hasn't been pretty but 7pts from 9 and just the 1 goal conceded is from a stats point of view. There is a lot of speculation that Exeter's Lee Phillips (14 goals last season) will leave but so far he's getting back to fitness and been sub for the last couple of game.

Exeter should be too good for Tamworth in this one.

Soccer, England, Premier League, Pick on 26.8.2006: Watford vs. Manchester United

Filed under: English version, Picks — mato at 3:10 pm on Saturday, August 26, 2006

Manchester United have made an excellent start to the current campaign, and that's no accident. While still without Rooney and Scholes, the Red Devils have looked lethal in attack this season. Louis Saha upfront gives United extra work-rate and the ability to draw defenders out of position, and the likes of Giggs, Ronaldo and even the midfielders have made great use of the space he creates. While they have won both games very comfortably so far, the margins really could have been even bigger.In team news, Gary Neville will miss this game as well, as will the suspended Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes, but Carrick is fit for selection.

They take on a Watford side that has impressed, thus far. A 2-1 defeat at Goodison park against a very good Everton side was followed by a share of the spoils in an excellent display against West Ham, during midweek. The game was end to end and played at a very-very high tempo. While the game plan will most likely be different against United, I can't look beyond an away win.

I think Watford will prove to be a handful at Vicarage Road. It's a small ground, where the crowd really gets involved and Watford might not be a bad home side, this season. Even at this price, I see value in a medium sized bet here. The 1.45 is available on Interwetten.

Soccer, Germany, 1. Bundesliga, Pick on 26.8.2006: Bochum vs. Cottbus

Filed under: English version, Picks — mato at 2:22 pm on Saturday, August 26, 2006

Meeting of two teams which promoted this season to first Bundesliga and I clearly see a big advantage on Bochum side. I told already last season Bochum were probably the best second division team in Europe and I assume that they should be able to stay in Bundesliga 1 this season what absolutely does not count for Energie Cottbus in my eyes. Bochum is on technical base as well as a team much stronger than Cottbus, especially the difference on awaygames should be huge here. Cottbus only chance to collect points in Bundesliga 1 will be at home which they already showed this season, but on the road, I simply do not see them getting something at most Bundesliga teams. None of the teams has big injury worries so probably best ‘elevens’ from both teams will play ( Schröder returns to Bochum which makes their midfield complete again ) and I cannot resist to take Bochum for a price of 1.90 here, as this bet is acceptable from at least 1.80 in my eyes.
