Still 0-0 in Porto vs Zenit SP. Got to be some value in looking for a late goal in that game.

In the second half, Porto kept the ball, but Zenit seemed to have the game controled all the time, except for a couple of shots. I managed to succesfully lay Porto and back at higher odds, whyle having a small position on Zenit (that looked to be able to counter attack). It didn't turn out, but maybe next time...

I was surprised to see Porto at so low odds before KO tbh, but wasn't brave enough to lay them. Missed the first half, due to a commitment and wasn't going to trade this game, but was way home in the second half (and listened the supporter's protests in the stadium through my car's window! hmmmm that's interesting I thought! turned the radio on and steped the gas pedal - what I usually don't! - to get a nice green).

I would agree with you Peter if Porto wasn't in a psychological 'limbo'. Hulk is the only player that 'shakes' the team and the rumours are the coach is leaving the team, it's just a matter of time. Of course it is easy to talk now, as the gamed ended as a draw...

Looking forward to later see Benfica confirmed as the group winner. Good luck to all Man Utd supporters out there. ;)

I didn't have any pictures so my comments were a bit speculative. Looking forward to the Man Utd game this evening.

Good luck Peter. I've been wearing my Benfica shirt the whole morning :)

United in big trouble at half time. Results going in City's favour at the moment.

Do you think United could be a value back?

The market is drifting heavily, but we're only 1-0 down at half-time, against vastly inferior opponents.

And if Fergie gives the lads a good bollocking at half-time, they could rediscover their motivation!

Looking at the stats Utd are by far the better team so I wouldn't bet against them at this stage.

That would have been an incredible own goal!

Not a chance

There's lots of decent clubs still in the Europa League, and this is the last place United & City want to be, especially on a Thursday night.

Both clubs will put out reserve teams

Spot on LeTiss, although City's reserve team may still be good enough to get to the final - not the case for United though.

I should have also put the caveat to never bet or trade your own team. Emotions will overrule judgement for sure!
