Benfica v FC Kopenhagen
@1.50
Benfica v FC Kopenhagen 0:1 1/4 [AH] Pick 1
@2.10 (Half Refunded/Half Lost)
Benfica can't fail today.
After Everton convinced Manuel Fernades not to show up for this decisive game (nice way to do business there goes the British manners) Benfica must win and show everyone (especially Fernandes that is so eager to leave for a mid-table club) that is one of the top clubs in the world.
Benfica beated Kopenhagen 3-1 last season in the groups stage of the champions league and they can do it again today.
The team as been reinforced especially in the attack with a new striker, Oscar Cardozo for 9M euros that will certainly try to score in is first official game.
Also keep an eye ouy for Freddy Adu the wonder kid that is expected do start on the bench but will certainly play in second half.
Daily Balance: +0.42
Note: The blog's "one bet one unit" model showed some problems today. I actually made much more profit on my betting account than on the blog because my bet on Benfica without the handicap was twice as high as the bet with handicap.
Because of this, if this kind of bets happens again I may make a bet with doubled stakes so to cover the possible losses of the handicap match.
All odds from:
Not much as tomorrow is Champions League day.
Stabæk v Start Kristiansand Pick 1

Melzer J. v Karlovic I. Pick 2

It's the champion playing against a newly promoted team. It should be a easy win. And Buyuksehyr is also from Istanbul so it's not really an "away" game (I bet most of the crowd will be Fenerbahçe fans...)
