That's what I'm counting on (Leeds)... got odds at 11/1 so I have skin in today's game. And Everton, well, they get City soon too so I also have some money on that...

yeah, next round for City is Everton, but I think that we can't get close to point, win is not even a thought at the moment
but, I would like to see City struggle, Arsenal started good, but Brigthon will be a better test for their form than West Ham, if they survive till the end of January, will be really interesting season

Bets against Chelsea and United tonight, should be a no-brainer to win one of them right?

Your best chance would have been on Chelsea, but with Chelsea leading conveniently at halftime, and Bournemouth are not looking to be making much threat either so getting back into the game alone will be a tough task, let alone come back from a 2-0 deficit will be very improbable, I'd even tip Chelsea to score one or two goals more.

I doubt Nottingham would even get a to play a draw against Man United, but you if there's money on the line for you, I hope it does happen  Grin so we can push our agenda of Ronaldo wasn't the problem and #Glazersout over again.

Ah well, who was to know the 2 teams seemingly struggling both would manage to win comfortably. Seems like WC players have more form and game sharpness than those who only trained and rested -- as I predicted, but that didn't help my betting.

but yeah, expected some surprises in this round too, everything goes as expected so far, so Leeds should do it tomorrow? just my Toffies lost their home match with Wolves, but that is hardly a surprise from them anymore, relegation fight - it is what it is, said by Lampard

I really don't what to expect of Man City, because we know how Leeds can be full of surprises at full strength but I really think It's going to be a walk in the park for the Citizens,.

I await the lineup before taking a stance, I already have City for 3-0 win but I might change my mind for City to also concede one if Leeds have their best players available.

I'm currently 18.5 points from the first position, however, I'm really not paying much attention into the main leaderboard justt yet, I usually do about 5-6  game weeks to go, I'm just taking it one game day at time and trying to stay in sight.

I got a decent result out of the yesterday games yet I am standing still in the rankings although it is important to not lose track of the top runners,I am still below 13 points to the first place and I think getting a correct score for Chelsea and a near miss correct score for Manchester United in total 4.5 points out of 2 games are always good in my opinion,I also had United 2-0 but they just got and won 3-0.

I hope no surprises today from Manchester City as I know this is Premier League and anything can happen.

I hope we have a surprise. So far only Spurs gave us the surprise and all favorites won rather easily (even Arsenal which a lot of people thought would suffer).

9 points only for me, while Avirunes wins the round if he gets City right, which I'm sure he will. Very annoying to get these low scores in a round of favorite wins!

Yeah had some tough weeks before the World Cup so great to see this round going great so far. In Brentford game after the 2-0 scoreline was enjoying a beer after a long time but Spurs really ruined it for me in the second half. Anyway I am still glad Brentford made something out of it and they are the my favourite underdogs team in PL right now. They are very disciplined team and have a good team chemistry. Spurs really put some great pressure in second half, just wished Bees survived that but they weren't able to in the end.
They were superb when Eriksen still was there. I prefer him to stay there though.

You also had a good time with a bad start but what a comeback with 4 exact and 1 close out of 5 recent games, hats off to you man  Smiley. Yesterday, I had 2-0 for United also but Fred messed the exact for me by scoring in 87th minute and that turned out well for you  Tongue.  Tonight's game is a slightly difficult one, result will be City for sure but predicting scoreline for this game is a difficult one. I am even thinking of a Leeds goal given how pacy some of their attacking players are who can put a great counter and City are really bad at facing counters. Let's see how it goes, so good luck to everyone.  Smiley
Lol I was afraid that they would scored more since they got 2-0 already in the first half. Luckily the Brentford's goal was ruled out and while the man of the match went to Casemiro, mine is Fred Grin His goal was so cool, which that's a tricky spot to score for a left-footed player.

Good luck guys for the last match on this gameweek tonight!

Nunez's performance made me appreciate Timo and Lukaku even more; he's had 16 chances to score this season and has missed 12 of them. Whoever convinced Liverpool to pay 100 million pounds for Nunez deserves an Oscar. Grin
He is failing to finish all the time. Although the assist for the last goal was amazing. If Nunez was scoring then we could have half a dozen of goals today.
However, he was not given the assist. If Nunez had been the 2pac shooter, 2Pac would still be alive today. I'm hoping he doesn't miss out on training.  Cheesy




Lololol!  C'mon man be nice to the guy cos who knows, his second season could be way better than how he's playing right now.  I mean it's his first year in the big leagues and he's just 23 years old.  I think he deserves a couple more years to bloom and shine in the EPL.  That and there's no way Liverpool could sell him with his price tag they acquired him for.  Lol.  Grin

As for the pool, I think I give up.  I'm 26 points off the top and everytime I make my picks, I don't know what I'm doing half the time.  I think I should start looking more closely into the stats as much as I used to.  I used to take hours looking into Soccerstats a couple of years back.  

I don't want to tell you my secret  Grin cause you will copy it for the next year pool but I do something that I am always near the prize standings,last year I lost it for 2 points from the last price,this year I am in a good position at 12 points from the top so far so chances are high.

Since you don't know what you are doing half of the time why just not going to websites like this one freesupertips.com and put the tips that they put,sometimes they hit it really big although most of the times they don't do well and with that I just told you 30% of my secret  Grin.

Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

C'mooon!  What's the whole secret?  Is it also waiting for most everybody to make their picks check where the top guys' positions are in the prediction page and guess which score lines they made?  Loool.  I know there are some of you out there.

And those free tips are good to get some idea on what's going on currently with a team but our pool tries to predict the correct scores which is really something harder to do.  It needs a bit more enthusiasm to watch all these fixtures which I used to do.  I watched all the replays of the matches, checked the stats and took notes.  Lol.  I had one good year betting on the EPL, around 5 years ago.  The rest were meh and I kinda got jaded and lazy.

Avirunes doing well this week I cant imagine how pissed he was when Tottenham able to score 2 goals since his pick was 2-0 for Brentford. If Brentford won that game, and City win too tonight, he must be the first one who can win all matches in one week, right?

I was hoping much on Brentford vs Tottenham match as my first exact score this gameweek with score 2-3. I literally spilled my drink when Kane headed the ball onto the bar lol. I mean, it would be an epic comeback if he scored. Wrong pick obviously in the end

I did not watch Tottenham match but 2 - 3 was really close for you to get another correct score. You already have 4 right now.

and had unlucky strikes on the next 3 games. Fortunately I hit exact scores in the last 3 games last night. Really need more than just a luck to be consistent during tournament [img height=25]https://talkimg.com/images/2023/05/17/blob6ab3cc95ba2c54ac.png[/img]
You are having a good run with Aviruns for the round. This gif is cool!

The final goal tucked my exact score, I went with a 2-1 forecast and was almost there. Given the poor performance of the other pool participants yesterday, 7 points is not a bad start.
Don't regret for one or two matches. From the years of playing the pool I know to be in a good position after end of the season you need to be as consistent as City 😂. What I mean is, if you are able to score decent every round and don't mess up too bad even in few rounds then top10 or even top5 is not that hard.

Since you don't know what you are doing half of the time why just not going to websites like this one freesupertips.com and put the tips that they put,sometimes they hit it really big although most of the times they don't do well and with that I just told you 30% of my secret  Grin.

same was said about Timo when he came in, "oh give him another season" we gave him 3 season and he couldn't shoot to safe his life, age has nothing to do with players performance, players who are really going to play well shows it in 2-3 games, good players don't need 50 games to pick or adapt to the league. Halaand came crashing down, not waiting for heaven to fall. letting Origi go was a stupid mistake, Bobby is unselfish, his not the 20 goals a season striker, Jota is injury prone, Liverpool need to throw another 100m to get a decent striker.

If you are closer to the top than the bottom, there is still hope. I just want to finish in the top ten.

Yeah, too lazy to tag individuals but overall agree with Liverpool and Arsenal comments, Bajcetic in particular, he was a handful in EFL previous to City but I thought too early to call, Elliott currently still sets the bar in terms of youngsters left... Nunez has a way of dragging shots I noticed, so he's still getting used to rushing up to play (as opposed to waiting for service in Portugal), I'm still giving him time, the way we needed Bobby to as well.

Arsenal finished with a 3 - 1 which means another 3 points for me LOL.
After the break I must say I had a good start. If first 3 matches were going as planned then I could have more points. Jayce got 3 exact scores and now leading the leader-board.

PREDICTION ARSENAL 3-1 WEST HAM
@Sexylizzy2813 well played with the prediction Smiley, I guess this is Arsenals season to win.

Meanwhile, the premier league is one funny league, whenever these guys are about to break off for some other competition it rains goals, when players are returning from a competition like the worldcup in this case its goals galore and you have teams like leicester failing to find the back of the net Tongue

I thought only pool players are allowed to post but anyway, I'm always suspicious of new accounts, I will be less suspicious if they join a pool eventually lol

Meanwhile, yes, funny league, but don't speak too soon, La Liga and Serie A start and half those leagues are not very disciplined with Christmas celebrations, you never know what kind of form they have after all that partying!

I hope the stake was big enough to get maximum out of your investment. If I were gambling then I would easily put some money for both team to score too and either in Arsenal or draw double chance or draw no bet for Arsenal. I don't care anymore about gambling.
