swansea and real

What´s up with Swansea and Real Madrid? Swansea have won both their games this season in great style, but they haven´t met any really good team though. Interesting start for them anyway and interesting start for West brom too. Two great results against two really tough opponents.

In the Championship I am starting to believe that Blackburn could make a quick return to the Premier League. But as usual, the Championship and Leagues 1 and 2 will spring many surprises.

 

Biggest surprise so far in Europe is that Real madrid only has 1 point after their first 2 games. They will offcourse start winning soon, but the gap to Barcelona will grow. Barcelona by the way, did not impress against Osasuna this weekend. If teams try to play against them (as Sociedad fail to do) then the other teams will see that Barsa aren´t unbeatable.

Deportivo, who met Valencia on sunday, are impressing me, even though they played in Segunda last season. Mallorca played well against malaga and are a team to follow a while. So are Atletico Madrid, who smashed Bilbao last night. Bilbao are really crap and I think they will lose to HJK midweek.

Next weekend, Bilbao host Valladolid, who have won both games so far and here they could be a bet. Deportivo is another possible bet. Getafe might get too much interest from punters after beating Real, so I hope for good Depor-prices.

 

In Segunda I was impressed by Almeria and Murcia this weekend. Almeria are playing really nice football and Murcia were the much better team against Gijon, even though they were a man down.

In the summer derby I also liked what I saw of Elche, another team to follow a while.

This weekend Almeria must be a bet again. They take on Real Madrid castilla at home. Castilla beat Barsa B but once again were lucky to have a referee who seems to be a real Real fan. Murcia, Villareal and Elche should also be considered as bets.

 

I had a few winners again and I am starting to feel more confident in the spanish betting. Premier league, on the other hand, is not a market I will spend oo much time chasing bets in. My bankertreble at 9/2 was a winning bet J

 

AND... Cartagena won their first game in Segunda B . GREAT!
