Norwich City continues to show strong results in the championship. In the last match against Stoke City, which took place on September 16, Norwich City won 1-0. The winning goal was scored in the 44th minute of the match. The goal was scored by home team player J. Stacey. At the moment, Norwich City ranks 4th in the standings with 13 points after 6 matches played in the 2023/2024 season. The team has 4 wins, 1 defeat and 1 draw. They scored 15 goals and conceded 8. As for Stoke City, they are ranked 19th in the standings with 6 points after 6 matches played. They have 2 wins and 4 defeats? Current form of Leicester City continues to show an impressive game in the current Championship season. In their last match against Southampton on September 15, Lester City won a confident 4-1 victory. The match began with a gorgeous goal by Jamie Vardy in the first minute, which brought Leicester City a 1-0 advantage. Subsequently, in the 18th minute, Kian Makatyre doubled the team's advantage, scoring a goal and setting the score 2:0. However, in the 25th minute, Southampton responded with a goal by Sanchez Edozie, reducing the score to 2:1. By the end of the first half, Wilfred Ndidi had again increased Leicester's advantage, scoring a goal and setting the score 3-1. In the second half, in the 67th minute, Simeon Mavididi closed Leicester's victory by scoring the fourth goal and setting the final score 4:1. Both are good in scoring.

My betting pick will be both team to score Yes and total over 2,5 goals at 1.94 odds,

Benfica are turning their attention to their Champions League opener and looking to start the competition with a great result at home. Securing three points at the Estadio da Luz is crucial in a group with Inter Milan, Real Sociedad and Red Bull Salzburg, with the possibility of everyone fighting for top spot.

Red Bull Salzburg go into the game having lost their 100% record for the season. But they are still doing well and are unbeaten this year. Their last outing was in the Austrian league, a 2-2 draw.

 My bet: Benfica to win and over 2.5 goals with 2.040 odds

Bet> Both team to score [Yes] for 1.7 odds.

Braga played 5 matches in the championship and 4 matches in the Champions League selection this season, and in 7 out of 9 cases the Portuguese exchanged goals in their rivals. The team plays attack, often forgetting about defense. In this championship, in 5 rounds, the team already has 10 goals scored, but also 10 goals conceded. Last season, Braga was able to score 75 goals in a season, beating both Porto and Sporting. Only the champion Benfica was able to score more. Such an attack is a way to score any opponent. Italian champion Napoli enters a new season with a new coach Rudy Garcia. Having started the new championship with 2 victories, the Neapolitans later lost to Lazio (1:2) and at the very end of the game were able to achieve a draw in the match with Genoa (2:2). The departure of the team's main defender last season Kim Min-jae had a negative impact on the defense and Napoli missed in 3 of the 4 games of the championship (5 goals in total). And in general, the team began to allow more chances at their goal compared to last season. At the same time, all the attacking players of the team remained.

=> Locomotive Yaroslavl wins 2.29 odds

Locomotive Yaroslavl is stronger than the Minsk dynamo. Dynamo strengthened in the off-season, and the offseason was quite good. The team has been updated, a new coach, but a lot of neuroses. They play very well with weak opponents, and they are already lost more strongly with their opponents. The Locomotive Yaroslavl rocked from the start and seemed to swing. Shows the result. I think they will be able to drag the victory in the regular time.

9INE VS COMPLEXITY

ESL PRO LEAGUE SEASON 18

COMPLEXITY:

From the past season, Complexity accomplished very little and have struggled immensely against teams in their Tier. The only tournament they’ve won this year, is the Thunderpick World Championship 2023: North American Series #2, where they dropped just one map across three series played. Even then, this is nothing to be impressed about since it was against B-tier teams. This was merely a trial run for Complexity with the new member Elige, former star player for Liquid.

So far they aren’t anywhere close to their prime yet but hopefully this match against 9ine will be the stepping stone in changing everyones opinion.

 

9INE:

Underdogs at S-Tier scenes.

Little expectations are placed on 9INE this ESL Pro League Season 18 because they’re not in the same league as the other top contenders including NaVi, Vitality and Ence.

Even then, they’re still a decent team, better than Complexity that is. 9INE won RES Western European Masters: Fall 2023 recently and although they haven’t had any impressive runs in these tourneys, they would expectedly at times play past expectations going as far as taking 1 map against G2, Cloud9, and ENCE.

 

CONCLUSION:

You would expect 9ine to take this game easily but I seriously don’t like these odds especially against Complexity. They will lose to teams of much lesser caliber like Betboom, Endpoint and L4O. Really disappointing games. They are inconsistent and actually just 1 map trick ponies.

I’ll take the odds for Complexity this competition but the safest would be to go 1.5+ handicap Complexity because Elige and Hallzerk’s new visa will dominate this 9ine nobodies.

COMPETITION PICK - COMPLEXITY WIN @ 2.62

PERSONAL SAFE PICK - COMPLEXITY 1.5 map handicap @ 1.44

Again bet in champion league, and again on the number of goals that will be scored in the match and again more than 2.75 goals. Real Madrid vs Union Berlin match. My bet lies on the goal hunger of Real Madrid and the opportunity of protagonism on the part of Union Berlin. Again open match forecast and I consider that the match will be 3-1.
My bet is to score more than 2.75 goals at odds of 1.93.

1. Galatasaray made a serious way before being in the Champions League group. They were in qualifying back in mid-July, where they  beat Zalgiris with a score of 3:2 on the sum of two matches. It was much easier with Olympia from Ljubljana, they beat the opponent with a score of 6:0. Although Molde tried in the decisive round of selection, it turned out to be weaker.

2. In the Turkish league more than confident, taking second place in the table. A zero draw in the first round with Kayserispor is so far the only loss of points to the lions in the championship, three victories in a row followed it. There is of two points from the leader of Fenerbahce.

3. Copenhagen also fought in the Champions League qualification and managed to pass three rounds on the way in the group. The first rival of the Danish champion was the Icelandic Braidablik, beaten very easily. Sparta Prague fought, and the Czechs managed to pass only in a penalty shootout.

4. However, the competitors were also not perfect at the start and according to the results of eight rounds the table, ahead of the second Brondby by one point, two points less than the third Norschland. 

Bet: Galatasray win

Odd: 1.6
