Bad weekend and an early Champions league pick

Hi guys,

After the great start of the blog it was inevitable to have a bad period at some point. Well, it happened this weekend, when most of my bets on the Premier League were lost. Yesterday Newcastle didn't manage to create enough chances despite their efforts and lost to West Ham at home and Chelsea missed few chances to close the game against Liverpool and were punished. Bad weekend, no doubt about it, but life goes on, so it is time to take advantage of some early odds which should fall until the games come, so I am willing to take them now:

Pick 50
Event: Nordsjaelland - Shakhtar
Pick: Shakhtar -1.25 AH
Odds: 1.78 @ Pinnacle
Stake: 10/10
Analysis: This is the key game for the Ukrainian side - a win here and they are through to the knockout stages. Skahtar have shown some great stuff against both Chelsea and Juventus, while the Danish side is getting trashed almost every game. I don't see something different from a win for the visitors here and considering they are a force upfront, I think it is going to be very convincing. Full stake here before the odds drop.


This is it for today, I am not sure I will post much picks for the international friendlies, since it is hard to predict them. However, I will probably have a bet or two with small stakes. Good luck everyone :)
