I can never find it in my heart to bet against the team I support. Not even going as far as a draw. The worst I do for Liverpool is to bet on them to qualify during a cup contest (so, in a sense, a possible draw, but eventually winning on penalties or extra time). Fulham makes the most sensible bet here, though, it's just value. Same as Spurs at almost 8/1 (vs City but they are a sort of bogey team for the Sky Blues).

Then maybe I shouldn't tell you that I once opposed the national squad of my country and backed our greatest rivals just because I liked the odds Cheesy

But yes I will surely back United and maybe combine them with Spurs.

Betting on your favorite team's games is always a problem, as sympathy distorts the real picture. I also predicted that Arsenal would win (although I support United), but I could not predict that United would not score a single goal. Perhaps this was a mistake, since Arsenal are good in defense and if they score first, it is very difficult to come equalise.
A bad start (in terms of points) is a good opportunity in terms of betting, I think a cash bet on United to win against Fulham and Burnley is justified.

Glad to hear that I was not the only United supporter who went against them in the pool.
Really excited for the upcoming match against Fulham but not too much I got burned too often by Manchester United Cheesy

You shouldn't feel guilty on that man. You just wanted to act with your senses which is totally normal.

Yeah, it sucks when it's against the club you support but better than being emotional IMHO.

Congrats on your yellow cap! As for the Fulham game, I believe Man Utd will beat them. Did you see how much Fulham struggled on the first week? It must be the time for Man Utd to get their first win of the season...

Thanks I was thrilled when Fulham scored the late equaliser since I went for 1-1 here in our pool but they were indeed more than awful Cheesy

But to Fulham's credit they are really an annoying team to play against.

Good luck to all for GW2!
