I agree 100% No discipline = No chance. You would also have to take other things into consideration such as Bank management,Staking plans,Mindset,being able to accept losses which are inevitable ,are just a few.
If you were to do the bets you mentioned I am not sure you would make a small profit because although the 4 teams do win many of their games they will also lose a few and some would even have shock losses , then there is all the draws they would have.
At the prices you would get would probably be almost all under evens some as small as 1.3 to 1.4 or even smaller there would be very little edge giving you very little ROI.
Betting at such small prices over a long period is not for me.
