re: Sports betting 12/29

If you want to take a shot in the dark, Sporting CP (Lisbon) is playing a bottom dweller in the Portuguese Liga today.
They've beaten them 2-0 the last 4 times they've played.
Can bet that exact scoreline at +400.
Very unlikely this Pacos team scores a goal. They've lost 11, tied 2 and have zero victories this year. They have scored a total of 7 goals in 13 games.

Could put $20 on 2:0 and $20 on 3:0, both are right at +400. $40 bet to win $60ish.

typically when a team like Sporting is a lot better and playing someone this terrible, they'll get up 2-0 and then sort of cruise the rest of the game and look to keep the clean sheet while just keeping possession and not taking too many chances. They might get that third goal, but they really aren't looking for it. Just wanting to get out of the game with no injuries.


Final score was 3-0
