A 1-1 DRAW would have been sufficient for SEVILLA to go through.......and NOBODY will ever get EVERY games definite outcome.However, if you take as much circumstances surrounding each of the 2 teams......you can make an opinion on how a game might develop.OK.....NOBODY will be "right" on every aspect of how a game develops....but there are usually some aspects in your before game opinion that can enable a profit to be made....or a loss mitigated.I agree that you can't always rely on players doing what you expect them to do, or coaches, or referees, or assistant referees etc etc............however, SEVILLA were not mugs, in spite of how certain commentators blethered, and still blether a load on rubbish about them after the 1st leg.Some of the comments McMAN made.....or former player who played for DORTMUND and ENGLAND....going hyperbolic about POGBA or other players......saying "what a wonderful shot" ...."wonderful" this ...and "wonderful" that......when shot flys over the bar or past the post and does not score etc etc........You MUST make YOUR OPINION on the game.....you should not rely on commentators or anyone else on arriving at an opinion on a game. SEVILLA were a serious threat....as MU failed to score at least 1 AWAY goal in 1st leg. Anyone who thought at HT in 2nd leg that MU were going to sail through ....knows little about the game ( MCMAN etc etc )There are some former players who make good comments about players/games etc etc.....HOWEVER, THERE ARE MANY WHO HAVE LOW STANDARDS WHEN THEY PLAYED FOOTBALL....WHO JUST DO NOT SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN MATCHES, OR ARE NOT CRITICAL ENOUGH OF PLAYERS LIKE POGBA WHO, FOR THE MONEY HAS SO MANY WEAKNESSES IN HIS GAME THAT SAYING HE IS A "WONDERFUL" PLAYER ARE JUST BLETHERING!One of the reasons the STANDARD at international level is so poor in UK is down to the former players giving credit to players who fall far below the STANDARD required to be a "wonderful" player.To say the game is a GAME OF CHANCE is not accurate. It is NOT like flipping a coin. You have to weigh up as many relevant circumstances before forming YOUR OWN OPINION.Nobody gets their opinion "right" on EVERY match........but PS is pretty good on his opinions on matches generally. We both differed on ARSENAL and MILAN. ROMA were a poor team on the night v MILAN........ARSENAL were a poor team prior to playing MILAM. However, BOTH ROMA and ARSENAL won their CL games to qualify for next stage.You have to read between the lines on what the objectives of coaches and players might be......PS perhaps was not fully concentrating on ROMA v MILAN, and formed an opinion on that game which was that MILAN could beat ARSENAL in 1st leg. ROMA's poor performance against MILAN influencing that opinion. Nobody is saying it is EASY to get an opinion "right", but as long as generally your opinion is "right" on how a game might go ...........then analysing a game and forming an opinion...IS FAR BETTER THAN FLIPPING A COIN!

You can mitigate losses all you like , this is the template bookies use to predict football results https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_association_football_predictions  near the bottom far more accurately than anyone on here can including me. To suggest you can beat the odds by lol ignoring commentators "forming your own views" typing in caps lock is utterly ridiculous. The truth is you are down in money terms not just on this thread but your account in total with your predictions no better than flipping a coin... ur kidding yourself fella but you keeping trying to beat the odds laying long odds typing **** ready for the run of inevitable losses to wipe you out. As though you can predict a correct score in a game of 22 men kicking a ball around a patch of grass with all the variables there are.. utterly laughable

Not watching the game so hard to form an opinion as best action to take 2nd half.......but when laying 1-0.....it is just a FACT that if stays 0-0 or goes to 0-1 or 2-0.......the lay bet wins..

You don't say , but as you laid 1-0 at over 5 and its now under 4 how do you intend to back to trade out ?
