2-3/

PREMIER LEAGUE

A matter of Mataa

W

e think Manchester United will have a great season from now on: Rooney and Van Persie have recovered

from injures, and Juan Mata's deal came just in time, to give the Red Devils new energy. Stoke City can't be a problem, with four losses in a row.

Look for Lukaku

injury (one month out, more or less). Good Thursday, to the contrary, for Aston Villa, thanks to the astonishing 4-3 on

Wba. Two teams with great attacks: a nice opportunity to see both to score.

ondon is doing great with its teams: first of all...Crystal

Arsenal-C.Palace under 2,5 goals 2.25 PinnacleBet

Palace! Unbelievable renaissance from the bottom of the ranking to a more safe position. The "eagles" have nothing to lose

at Emirates, so we can expect a huge assault by Arsenal but not many goals, ladies and gentlemen. Crystal Palace put a bus in front of the goalkeeper.

Genoa - Sampdoria under 2,5 1,61 Bet365

terrible beginning, a change of head coach and a great reprise, this is the common season of Genoa and

Sampdoria; but in this match, all the good

Genoa - Sampdoria X at 3,20 Bet365

things the two new coaches have done, can be throw away: too important the derby for the city of Genova and for the supporters. I think that this time, both the teams have more fear to lose than desire to win, and so I imagine a boring match, a derby fuelled by fear with few goals, and probably a draw.

Chievo - lazio

I

still remember the match in Rome in September : Lazio has won 3 - 0, but Chievo has dominated especially in the first

Chievo - Lazio 1x 1,57 Bet 365

half, and the result was incredible. Now Chievo is a quite solid

team, while the ambitions of away team seem reduced by the leaving of Hernanes, one of the most rapresentative player; not a good week, not a good pitch to win for Lazio, I guess that Chievo will move his rank.

T

he victory in Italy Cup versus Lazio can't hide that is not a good moment for Napoli : the two draws versus Chievo and

Atalanta - Napoli 1x 1,95 Bet365

Bologna are not symptoms of a good shape, the team seem

far away from the great start of season; Atalanta is quite a good time, expecially in the home matches : only two match losses, and a solid difensive tactic that Napoli has always suffered. I think that won't be easy for Napoli to win in Bergamo.

Hunt the hunter is back

Schalke-Wolfsburg 1 at 2.00 Bet365

K

laas-Jan Huntelaar came back from a bad injury and destroyed Hamburg: we didn't expect a so huge 3-0 for Schalke. Wolfsburg

has just lost his first game at home; it means that the winter break has not brought good effects. Will Huntelaar "The Hunter", with his team, get another.. plunder?

Match point, once again

A

ugsburg is in a hot streak, with three straight wins; Werder Bremen, to the contrary, failed to "upgrade" and keeps fighting in the relegation zone. We think that Augsburg

won't miss this match point.

his Real Madrid is a sort of cannibal. He wins and lets the others goal-less. Ancelotti wants

to be unbeatable, more than Fabio Capello. Athletic Bilbao is doing very well, but since 2010 it doesn't win against

Real Madrid. We look at the hot streak of the blancos, and we think they'll win also in San Mamès.

Moving standings up

M

alaga and Sevilla have entered the new year without any idea, very soft. The first are fighting to stay in the Liga, but it's not easy: Sevillanos have played quite well until now, even

if in August it was almost impossible to think. What about a draw?

Too weak

I

n my opinion Betis has no chance to avoid relegation, and I don't understand why the bookies still give chance to it. Furthermore, Espanyol is playing well in 2014, and a win will bring it

to Europa League zone. Another reason to push on 2.

2014 Winter Olympics

Mother Russia, cousin Germany

T

otal number of medals: United States favorite. Come on! Without Lindsey Vonn, who more or less counts for 3-4 medals? Not at all. To be a bit nationalist, just remember that every Olympic Games flirts with local athletes. That means Russia. But more easily, Germany. Looking at the past,

the teutonic skiers (and so on) have been constantly on the top. Like Maria Riesch, the great alpine skier who looks for 2-3 medals. Or maybe Norway: just try both of them.

Norway, no way

N

ow let's have a look at Norway:

Golden medals for Norway 9 or less 4.50 TonyBet

10 golden medals 7.50 TonyBet

every time, the "most favorite" between favorites. But if we look at

the last 4 Olympic Games, the average number for golden medals is 6 (the total number just slides between 20 and 25, to be honest and complete). Of course they are strong and hard to beat, the Norwegians: but maybe they suffer pression too much? Bookies are going mad, giving the nordic team the possibility to win 12 or more golds. I'd try some other paths.

86th Academy Awards

The beauty of...winning

J

ust in time. We think that Italy, after almost 20 years, will win the Oscar for best movie in a foreign language. Last time, it was Roberto Benigni

the master to celebrate with "Life is

beautiful": funny thing, another movie with the word "beauty" inside. The great beauty,

"The great beauty" best foreign movie at 1.53 - Bet365

the beauty of Rome by Paolo Sorrentino. Without any doubt, you can focus on it, stare and get some money...

To be like Steve McQueen

I

don't remember two consecutive Academy Awards'

Steve McQueen Best director at 6.50 Bet365

ceremonies where the best director has been differently "awarded" from the best movie. Last year, "Argo" and "Life of Pi" for

best movie and best director: but normally best movie = best director. This year it seems that "12 years slave" can be the best movie; but Steve McQueen not, as best director. Bookies, to the contrary, prefere Alfonso Cuaron for his "Gravity". Just because it's a 3D movie? Come on.. I'll try McQueen, a rising star.
