It was a surprise for me too, that Al-Hilal game, since in my opinion the difference between the teams is quite big. This is already the second big surprise I've seen in this tournament, the other one was Fluminense vs Bayern... Today there's another game I'm curious to watch: Botafogo versus PSG. If Botafogo wins, it'll be the third surprise for me lol.
Tomorrow is the most important game of the season for the team I support: Flamengo.
Thinking about today’s bets, any suggestions?
That is true that the gap is big, but we have seen Real Madrid lose to Sheriff FC 4 years ago, while also winning the UCL same season, so just because you lose to ne bad team, doesn't make you bad. That could be the best example because it's the same team, Real Madrid, and it's the same situation.
This game doesn't mean they won't win this, or they would be bad for the whole season, it is just one game, and sometimes great teams fail to win against worse teams. They need to make sure they can play better, but it will take time for them to get better, I am sensing that Xabi is making huge changes and that will cause some trouble. Plus, there were some players who are not starting eleven material, so they just used those for Al Hilal.
