duke313 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Bayern is a tough game on paper, they haven't been that great this season, they barely beat United in both group games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Liverpool is huge favourite against everyone in that competition....they are 50% favourites to win it all. West Ham can get through as well which would be far better... It's far better for our odds they don't draw each other.. it's not difficult. Edited March 15 by Alakagom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It's better for our odds to guarantee an English team in the semi. Especially as Germany only have one team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're looking at probabilities and Liverpool is odds on to get through. Against everyone left. Which means West Ham can't earn more points. It's quite simple really. If you're talking about guaranteed results yes, if you're talking Probabilites it's worse A Liverpool is huge favourite...which means it's bad..

StefanAVFC Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 If you take a probability vs a dead cert, the dead cert wins every time. 100% is greater than any probability. It's irrelevant though. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I have only realised that next season all uefa competitions are moving to this stupid 8 game first round so will be just as many games in the Europa. A lot of games to manage through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
