Can't wait to see the Overs line on AZ-Fener...of course if it's a typical Fener road game they won't score, and it'll end up 2-0.

i know its not the bravest bet, but my banker treble would be

Newcastle
Rangers
Sevilla.

gl, thanks.

well, you do know there ain't no such thing as a sure bet.

I'll be a bit more courageous and go with

Parma
Werder Bermen
Lens


Parma and Braga are both going through transition. Parma I think has a good chance on Wednesday, as Braga have just lost their manager Goncalves only at the club in that position for 3 months. Jorge Costa (Portuguese International defender oldtimer) has just stepped in yesterday. Braga won the first match 1-0 in last 10 of that game (I had the draw ). It'll be harder for them to repeat on the road and Parma has one of the few stadiums fan ready.

Werder Bremen - only because Ajax just isn't Ajax anymore in these tournaments. I'll go with the German engineering.

Lens - well they won their first match comfortably 3-1 I can't see them losing. They got the draw in Monaco at weekend 0-0 so perhaps management will be content with another low scoring fixture but I'll take them anyway as Panathinkos will need the goals today leaving them open to the counter-attack of Lens which might turn things from an expected under to an over 2.5 match.

CL today

Lay Milan
Bayern win
Arsenal win

Dinamo Bukareszt - Benfica Lisbon x2 (1.50)
Benfica despite winning (1-0) made a poor performance in the 1st Leg last week. However, I still rate the Portugese side as the better one here and in the 2nd Leg I bet that Benfica will not lose and get the promotion to the next round. Dinamo hasn't started their domestic season yet so I guess that the hosts could be not 100% prepared. All in all, Benfica has better players, better prepared and the visitors are my favourites.

Espanyol vs Livorno

Espanyol Espanyol putting UEFA Cup glory to one side
tribalfooball.com - February 17, 2007

Espanyol insist the priority is La Liga survival, despite their promising UEFA Cup run. "That is our goal and anything else is a bonus. We must not let ourselves get distracted by the UEFA Cup or talk of European qualification," said the coach.
"I want to see a good performance and three more points on Sunday."

i think under 2,5 is a potensial bet today.

If we loofing at the names of the players , then yes Benfica it is the better team! But if we look at first leg Benfica look like a ordinary team! Dinamo will have on hes side 12.000 fanatick suporters and this will not be an easy game for the portugese team. I think Dinamo will be the team witch will go forward after that game. Dinamo will start this game with :Lobont, Blay,Moti,Radu, Pulhac, Cristea, Margaritescu, D.Serban. C.Munteanu,Niculescu,Danciulescu. Dinamo is a very good attacking team and in this match they had to do what they do best: atack! So i belive that Dinamo will be the winner in this match!

[golo_sport_bets]

dj SOMSA U don't have any chance with your benfica.Dinamo is better home than Benfica visitors.I'm going on home victory even though is not enough for my favourites to qualify.But i'm sure they can win this game.

[allthethings]

Too busy at work to figure out all the games, but the home team in the second leg after a first-leg draw is lights out in the replay.

[golo_sport_bets]

Nancy - Shaktar x2 1.58
WHY?Because the first game betwen them was a lucky one for Nancy,Marica missed the goal in 4-5 good situations.Last year Shaktar did the same.She has qualified away.Now is the moment for Lucescu &Co. to show want foobal can play.I said also in the weekend that Nancy is the best team in France at home but i went onP.S.G..without any risks.I do the same here.NANCY is a team which doesn't know to concentrate in important matches.Shaktar is going there on counter-attack which knows very well.,They don't know to pass the ball much,they have a very fast stricker in person of Marica which will make the diference to let down all bad misses he had done in previous match.
So Shaktar not to loose.

AZ - FENER -1 1.6
Seems to be a strong match ! But AZ showed his real face ON Fener's HOT stadium.They deserved to win but they didn't.Why?Because they are going to win Tommorow more than sure.I have saw then playing at Groningen.I was sure that match was going to end draw because Groningen is a good team and they palyed at home.Now AZ should win without problem.Fener isn't a 'visitors' team,they don't know to play away.So i think AZ is very sure by 1-0 2-0 2-1

Yep, I realize that 1st leg was nothing special from Benfica but still as you confess they are better players and I still bet that it is Portugese team that will advance to the next round.

Supporters don't play. What's more Benfica' players are accustomed to the big crowd.

Great news for me, indeed. If the hosts will attack then Benfica will have more space for their conter attacks! Benfica players are better technically so they should take advantage of that.

I have a chance, mate! I still believe that Benfica x2 (1.50) is a good bet as well as BENFICA TO ADVANCE

Good luck with your bets.

I went back and looked at all the second UEFA Cup legs in which the home team was coming off a draw on the road, and found that most such teams won and advanced. When I looked at the lines for tomorrow and then checked these against the stats, I decided I'd jump on all five, although the first would be my pick for the best. So:

Soccer - Osasuna - spread -½ (+102)
for the regulation time held on Feb 22 at 2:45pm [pending]

Soccer - Maccabi Haifa - spread pk (+135)
for the regulation time held on Feb 22 at 1:45pm [pending]

Soccer - Nancy - spread -½ (+121)
for the regulation time held on Feb 22 at 1:00pm [pending]

Soccer - AZ Alkmaar - spread -1 (+130)
for the regulation time held on Feb 22 at 12:45pm [pending]

Soccer - Celta de Vigo - spread -½ (-115)
for the regulation time held on Feb 22 at 2:45pm [pending]

Osasuna plays Bordeaux off the 0-0 first leg...the Spaniards are 6-1-1 in their last 8 at home, the Frenchmen 3-1-4 in their last 8 away.

Mac Haifa hosts CSKA Moscow off the 0-0 first leg. Moscow not a great traveler at the end of last season, and they are perhaps a bit rusty, while Haifa (4-2-2 over last 8 at home) are in season at the moment.

Nancy hosts Shaktar Donetsk off the 1-1 draw...Donetsk also off a long break but the stats suggest these two are very closely matched. This is the one that worries me the most.

AZ has never lost at home in European competition and Fenerbahce far better at home than on the road. Still, with the 3-3 first leg, any goals Fener scores puts tremendous pressure on AZ for the outright win.

Celta hosts Spartak Moscow off the 1-1 draw. Neither team going great shakes lately, and Spartak off a long break.

***

Anyway, the juice-free lines have led me to take all five instead of just the Osasuna game. BOL all

[teentee]

hey guys, just looking back at the first legs and these are my predictions:
AZ
ESPANYOL
PARMA
PSG
CELTA

!GOOD LUCK!

[d239113g]

not really much of a prediction, but we (Newcastle) are due to meat the winners of AZ v Fenerbache, and i have this sneaky feeling that Fenerbache are going to pull off a result tomorrow night.

AZ just seem to be edging towards there end of season blip.
