I think you need 1 draw to more or less break even then.

The bookies seem to fancy IFK to win the Derry match. Think the draws in the 3 matches represent good value for money. Might stick a few quid on it myself

i like the odds on red star to beat cork city!

€5 stake on Drogheda drawing €12 return and Red Star to win at 5-6
Put an accumlator on this nice return :)

Derry's odds look generous. Did they fluke the win in Sweden?

1-0 (A)
1-1 (A)
0-0 (H)
1-0 (A)

Apparently they deserved the win.

My predictions are

Red Star win
Derry draw
Drogs win

Red Star win - ANYONE GOTTA PRICE? bfair

Predictions:

Cork-Lose,
Drogheda-Win,
Derry-Draw.

I think Cork are going to have it tough tonight - will be doing well to keep the tie alive for the second leg. I'm sure Red Star won't enjoy playing at the Cross, so hopefully Cork can keep a clean sheet and nick a goal.
Prediction 0-0.

Drogheda are at least equal to HJK in terms of ability and have to be fancied playing at "home". HJK aren't a team to fear.
Prediction 2-0.

IFK have interesting travel arrangements for tomorrow's match. They're flying today to London, catching a connecting flight to Belfast and taking the bus from there to Derry. I thought that after losing the first leg they would have chartered a flight to Derry and come a few days earlier to get used to the surroundings.
Prediction 1-0.

€5 on 3 draws returns €180

might be worth a go

Yep doing the exact same myself ;)

Tell us about it.

Red Star arrived in the airport yesterday at half 5, went for a light training at 7.30 where they demanded training equipment off city.

They only both 2 sets of jerseys, both of which clash with ours.....demanded we change ours and were told where to go. Are now out shopping for a set of gear.

No respect whatsoever....id love if we could teach them a lesson but unfortunately i dont think we can :mad:

Interesting betfair price swings. I backed Red Star @ 2.12, it then went down to 2 (laid off myself), and now out to 2.2

Seems the Serbs aren't too confident

Maybe if you didn't call them Red Star you might get more respect?

Red Star is the translation of their name that their fans use when chatting to us on the forum :rolleyes:

Gothenborg at 4/5 was just too hard to resist. got red star at 10/11 last night after 20 mins. was gonna put €110 on but i had too much faith in cork and only put on €27.50

back both Gothenborg and Helskini....only a small bet,not too confident.

I cant see Gothenburg winning in Derry

Got them at 4.2 on betfair. Couldn't believe they were that high
