Mallorca - Villareal
So we all know about perfect record that Mallorca has at home. However, Mallorca does not have a single win out of the last 10 games between these two (7 wins for Villareal and 3 draws). Villareal is not playing so well at the moment, but they can end Mallorca's perfect home record in the league, since they have already lost in the cup to Getafe.

Villareal DNB @ 2.10 (4 pts.)

Villarreal sacked their manager last week, who knows how they will react?

Im sorry but I have to make a comment here.

Your analysis or lack thereof, is suggesting historic h2h and that's it. Yet you have already mentioned "Mallorca's perfect home record" and then you say Villarreal are not playing well at the moment. Bit of a contradiction right there.

Secondly didn't Real Madrid have a terrible record playing at the Riazor? What happened there? Destroyed Deportivo. Mind you Mallorca have in previous season started out well and faltered come December....it hasn't happened this year. So how can you base a bet on "past" history when:

a.) Managers change
b.) Players change, especially from Mallorca
c.) Current form proves Mallorca is much better than Villarreal
d.) Mallorca are 9-0-0 24GS 3GA at home, Villarreal are 1-2-6 10GS 17GA on the road

So just because Mallorca have not beaten Villarreal in the last 10 games does not mean they will lose again. If Villarreal were actually playing decent this season then perhaps they could stretch it to 11 games, but based on current form and even statistically speaking, your review is a bit weak.

Unless you can come up with a better analysis on the game, I fail to see why Mallorca are not considered value at -0.25. People have seem to doubt them each week they play at home, but each week they come up with results.

Expecting Barcelona to thrash Getafe this weekend, Getafe have been playing both league and cup games for 3 weeks now.

They lost first leg with 2-0 away against Sevilla in midweek cupgame but they deserved better tbh, they dominated first half and played much better.
The mood in Getafe is very positive although the result, both coach and players mention that they know they can beat Sevilla in 2nd leg at home next week.
Adrian, Celestini and Gavilan are definitly out this weekend while important player Pedro Leon is suspended. The coach has also announced that he will rotate players who lacks fatigue and will also rest players for next week cupgame.

Even if Getafe lineup with their best eleven the chances of grabbing anything from Camp Nou are very very slim. Barca are playing like in the old days and this is also a perfect opportunity for both Ibrahimovic and Henry to get back in form. Zlatan is scoreless in 5 games and Henry have been injuryprone, with CL coming up in a matter of weeks it is vital for Barca that these players starts netting goals.

Dani Alves and Abidal are doubtful and Puyol is suspended.

Barcelona -2 @ 1.85

Tottaly agree with you TM and i think anything above EVENS for Mallorca is a value.They rae out of cup now so will fight for Europe spot.Villareal sacked manager after 2-0 home defeat and fcuk knows how players will feel after that.

I knew someone would mention Deportivo - Real game, but I did not know that Villareal have fired their manager. Also you make some good points in for Mallorca so I might have to reconsider this one.

??? How can you bet on team you don't know about?Should check all team news and then place your bet.Do you actually know Villareal players at all or you just placed bet because of name-"Villareal"?
Oh man,some people make me laugh sometimes.They bet on teams they don't know about and the cry when lose.

[gotstoned]

hope i got the point out

Someone criticized his post, and he said something along the lines of "TY for the info, I may have to reconsider" So why do you have to go jump down his throat? this is a betting website, and he gave his opinion. Follow it or dont, your choice, but to batter him because of his choice is poor punting on your part asshole

atleast he attempted in posting a review on the games, you only seem to know how to review other peoples ideas

Did i jump on his throat?That's a bit harsh,i just asked him few questions,that's all.What has it to do with you anyway?I think he could answer himself if he felt offended.

If you think i only know how to review others then better check my posts.

[RealGreen]

I agree with gotstoned. Mahno, I don't know you personally but that was a low move on your part. I'm new to this forum, but I have membership to others, and I really haven't seen this much pathetic abuse by members without them getting banned.

If you dislike someone keep your emotions to yourself, and only criticize the person based on the plays etc...

*For any admins reading this.* I really think this kind of behaviour should be monitored and punished, because it will effect future user decisions to stay or sign up here on punterslounge. Thanks.

I don't bet just because they are Villareal. And I didn't palce my bet yet. First I give my view, listen to what other people here have to say and then decide on my bet.

[sill7]

Mallorca is a great bet as many people on here have already pointed out . I can not believe people are willing to take Barca -2 at 1.80 seems mad to me but goodluck to everyone for this weekend .

Thanks gotstoned and RealGreen.

Money back if Barca win with 2 goals (if you didn't get that), please evaluate why it's not a good bet. Getafe will rotate lots of players for next week cupgame and Barca are playing better than ever.

not to mention Getafe just played a match three days prior, and will be playing just days after as well. So if they are not tired already, they will take this into account on the field and try to save themselves for the cup game which they have a chance at.

[Toronto_Mike]

First off this is why I seldom post anymore because of silliness.

Mahno's approach may seem harsh but I agree what he says 100%.
You pretty much explained your character when you said "I don't bet just because they are Villareal. And I didn't palce my bet yet. First I give my view, listen to what other people here have to say and then decide on my bet."
Now why on earth would you do that? You make a post state the price and the amount you'd wager but now you say "Oh I didn't play my bet" if you ask me if you think what Mahno said was a low blow, I think this is worse, because you are misinforming people.

Another thing that I agree with Mahno is do not wager unless you actually have figured out team news, the fact you did not know that Valverde got sacked and still want to bet on Villarreal is a sign of negligence. Mahno has pointed out that far too often posters go placing bets on names as oppose to team news and he proved a point here.

Perhaps the approach may seem very direct and off setting but the intention was for good reason. I personally saw what he meant right off the bet and I stated my case why I disagreed with your bet.

If you didn't want to wager, then why stake the price and mount? Just ask "What do you guys think of Villarreal/Mallorca match?" You will get opinions. I've come to learn in forums such as these, posts that have very little depth are useless. that is why I've just decided I'm not even going to bother, I've taken my time with the Serie A and did my research on both stats and team news, etc to come up with my final play. But when I see a lack of effort to study, then it becomes irritating.

This should get banned? Trust me there have been worse situations then this, Mahno called him out for a lack of info and proved a point.

You made a opinion based on the play itself and pretty much said that you need to get your facts straight. Unfortunately some people took it the wrong way.

[Mahno]

@RealGreen

I know you are new and didn't see Mustafa's previous picks.Most of the time he writes something with little team news but when members of this forum give more reasoning opposite him he changes his mind,just like he did today.He types his stakes but doesn't place bet?Why bother then?For new people like you this could lead to loosing money on bet that doesn't exist.

I didn't use abusive language when replied so why i should be baned?I agree i'm a bit sarcastic bastard and old members know that so they don't really pay attention to that.Looks like some people just to serious here and take every comment as a fight.

Common guys,this is just forum-relax.We all here to make money not too fight.that's why i'm looking for good previews not just previews from nowhere.

And thta's why some people don't bother reply anymore.there is to many new guys here with little knowledge and i do missing my old friends from this forum or don't see them often here.

I might be harsh sometimes but try to talk true.

P.S. Also don't forget that sometimes i just can't say what i want as my english is not so great and it may sound as a low blow to you but for me and other foreigners it's ok
