Well it was a 0-1 loss yesterday in the Eintracht Frankfurt vs Union Berlin game and that’s one I am really kicking myself over.
Everything looked good for that match, and for Frankfurt the win. Then I happened to look at post European results and realized that Frankfurt had never won a game this season following a European clash.
I lessened the unit bet to 0.5u but in hindsight I should have just called it off. That was a clear mistake on my part. Honestly probably a case of “I’ve wrote all this and spent all this time studying it and don’t want it to go to waste”.
However I’ll learn from that and make sure in the future I’ll at least publish it and then state why I am not betting it so I haven’t wasted all that time.
As it is Frankfurt lost 2-1. They were actually the better team with 64% possession and 21 goal attempts. They just couldn’t get it on target. So it could have also been a case of just variance there. Either way it is one in hindsight I am thinking “I shouldn’t have bet this” so that’s frustrating.
That Liverpool game was a cracker yetserday though. I really enjoyed that brief period where Liverpool went down 2-1 and how they flexed their muscles.
A reminder that we have betting tips up for Chelsea vs Munich and Napoli vs Barcelona.
3u on Braga to beat Rangers tomorrow. 1.90 odds. It breaks my heart to write that so I am not going to do a write-up on it. However I expect is to get absolutely pounded. We’re missing Morelos but he is off form so might not be the worst thing. Either way I think we get battered. Gosh I hope I am wrong. C’mon I’ve got a bunch wrong this month add this one to the list!
Let’s cover the two games taking place in the Champions League on February 26th, 2020:
Lyon vs Juventus Betting Tips:
Lyon come into this one struggling domestically. They are 7th in Ligue 1 and not looking too good. Inconsistent at best. They barely made it out of the Champions League and now they have to take on Juventus. Their home form is 4-4-4.
Juventus drew their opening game then won the others in convincing fashion to top their group. They have slipped a tad domestically in Serie A but come in on the back of two wins over SPAL and Brescia, and top Serie A at the moment.
This is the tournament they want to win and they will want to make this a statement game. The Champions League is why they brought in Ronaldo. Lyon missing Depay is brutal as well.
Juventus might play tight but I expect them to take care of Lyon here.

Real Madrid vs Manchester City Betting Tips:
An interesting one for sure.
Real Madrid have been a bit iffy this season to put it mildly. Their Champions League form was solid enough.
They’re still playing well just not the elite level they usually are. They have a good home record of 8-4-0.
Man City may be out of Europe and you have to think that will motivate them. They were unbeaten in the Champions League and had two draws. Their defense was a bit shaky at times. With the EPL Title not happening, this makes the Champions League that much more important for them.
Oddly I find myself rooting for City. Them being banned from the Champions League but winning it would be great. They have Laporte back which is obviously huge.
Being favourites is a but of a surprise for this match.
Honestly this is one where I strongly favour a team. Like I said City being banned from the Champions League but actually winning it? I love that sort of thing. So I’m betting with my heart here. One of those casual bets to back up my feelings.
