All eyes will be on the Arsenal - Newcastle game today. After drawing at home against Leeds, Newcastle will feel a bit of pressure - they need a decent result tonight.
Arsenal was dominant against Brighton in a high scoring game, I expect the same type of performance. They are still without Jesus but their offense is really playing well without him.

I'm really interested to see Newcastle in a high pressure game like this. Today will be the first glimpse of how they will react at the end of the season in their top 4 battle when the stakes are raised.

I hope Arsenal win today, but Newcastle's unbeaten streak is also impressive. If we take the games among the tops, then Newcastle played 3-3 with City (then it was still an surprising result, since Newcastle did not play in the best way). Most likely today there will be BTTS Yes, and Arsenal will win with a minimal advantage.

I agree and I have gone with 2-1 most common result in the pool for Arsenal but I am afraid that Newcastle would play rather defensively as 1 point to them would do better than 0 and thus they know that if they try to attack Arsenal by leaving spaces behind they have no escape but they will concede goals.That is my only concern because Arsenal is a great team with a lot of scoring capability but most likely we are over estimating Newcastle just because of the results they have got so far without losing from a long time.
Newcastle wasn't bad in that game against Leeds, they just did not manage to score. Everyone here is talking about attack but these 2 clubs also have very good defensive records. I see the game today as low scoring draw. In other words 0:0 or 1:1, can't even play both to score on this one. I will probably skip it for high stake and play half time or full time draw on some low stake ticket.

I think the fact that they could not score against Leeds says a lot about what to expect in tonight game,for me an Arsenal win.I don't know if it will be an easy win or a suffered win but I am sure in the end Arsenal will win this game,this will also serve to them as a great motivation booster if they manage to beat a team like Newcastle which has not lost a game I don't remember since when.

Newcastle maybe trying to get a point here tonight so most probably they would be defending rather than attacking and trying to profit from some killer counterattacks.

This was a perfect example of the game were possession gets you nothing, [...] fast players up front to catch Liverpool high line, very simple and very effective against this Liverpool.
It's an easy tactic against Liverpool. Few days ago someone were saying something that Liverpool defense is poor and they know it that's why they are always into score more but it eventually create counter attack situations. Liverpool concede goals. The number of opportunity Nunez gets if he can capitalize even half of them then opponents will be in pressure. Game plan changes. But like you said, it seems we are cursed now.

This season I think for them is already over in the Premier League so whatever happens happens.
At least CL qualification is not over but the way we are progressing, who knows may be next year I will have to watch CL without Liverpool.

On that pic I got 2nd position behind mole, and in the table, the yellow cap belongs to him lol Undecided Technically I dont win the cap yet until the round 19th.

Still a very strong performance jayce!
I didn't know about the current yellow hat until your post here.

Means we did good this time and we (or I) even won something (50$ free bet), right? Grin
Today's tips I have sent extra thoughtful because from now on I want to win regularly.
Luckily you found it, or the freebet would be expired at the time you figure out Grin  Congrats buddy!


I myself feel in tonight game, Brentford could get draw result against Liverpool.
I was about to put draw result but in the minutes before kick off when I was submitting my predictions, I checked the line-up and saw Toney isn't there, so I chose Liverpool to win instead. Have nothing to be disappointed on but Gakpo could regret his decision lol.


If there are 2 Yellow Cap winners in a given Round, they both win the prize.
For Round 18, both mole0815 and jayce each win a 2 mbtc Free Bet  Smiley

Brentford simply repeated the same performance from last season and have deserved their win. It is crazy how we can't cope with defending set pieces - especially against a team playing on the edge of what's allowed.

It is a shame about today's result - we were in a good series of results. We did not play good enough in these games that we won though - so today the luck ran out.

Back to the drawing board - we're shit this season.

Dang so technically you have never won any yellow cap so far despite that you have taken the top spot.

Anyway, I was expecting Brentford to hold Liverpool by getting a draw but it seems they were good though to be able to score 2 goals on the 1st half. I got myself a 3 way acca including Brentford to either win or draw so yeah 2 more to go for my ticket

It is almost like he is cursed.

Gotta agree with you on this, he was great but then somehow this guy just cant score anymore

About Darwin Nuñez, unusual, he miss all and the only one who make the goal its disowned, its that time when you dont know how but cant make a goal.
May be Nunez needs to work harder, hardly missing one or two is fine but when it becomes a habit then you are sending negative spirit to rest of the team. Team mates will lose confidence and they will hesitate to deliver the ball. The whole Liverpool unit needs to improve if they don't want to lose more matches.
It is almost like he is cursed. He passes the keeper and then fails to score on empty goal, ok defender covered it nice but still it is seven meter goal. And then he has beautiful lob finish with left his weaker foot and that ends up being offside for couple of centimeters. At least he is getting into chances, nobody else in Liverpool managed to do even that much. This was a perfect example of the game were possession gets you nothing, Brentford played just as they wanted, they did not have Toney and they placed two fast players up front to catch Liverpool high line, very simple and very effective against this Liverpool.

I see the whole game, really bad performance by Liverpool, and Brentford in a magnificent one.

The two disowned goals to Brentford ithink can make they go down in energy and mental strenght, but no, they keep pushing and make the second in the first half.

About Darwin Nuñez, unusual, he miss all and the only one who make the goal its disowned, its that time when you dont know how but cant make a goal.

I would in my personal opinion never call a magnificent performance for a team who had ball possession only 27% during all the game,yes they made the actions and they scored the goals but other than that they didn't do anything more,they were very pragmatic and I also congratulate them on this.

However I think that Liverpool deserved more and of course I don't blame Nunez because he needs more time to harmonize with the team,Liverpool lost a golden opportunity to catch up with other teams like Newcastle and Chelsea who lost but they also lost themselves.This season I think for them is already over in the Premier League so whatever happens happens.

Disappointing result from Liverpool. Opening match of the year and we lost against Brentford and with two goals difference.

In the last match if there were no own goals then we would lose against Leicester. When Tottenham lost the match other day, we had a very good chance to close the gap but we wasted it again. Now it looks like top 4 will be harder for us. Good thing is still there are many matches to go but if we do not fix our problems then we are going to lose more matches. Nothing is going right with us at the moment.

Today's tips I have sent extra thoughtful because from now on I want to win regularly.
0 - 2 for Liverpool was not a bad choice but it's a good start to win regularly 😉
Average Joe tip: I like to avid overthinking 😂. I always do my worst when take too much mental pressure for selecting my picks.



I think that Liverpool was caught off guard with those early goals and had a lot of difficulties to recover after,they pressured a lot,they even scored in the beginning of the second half and at that moment I thought now Liverpool is going to crush them and turn the result to their favor,they had many opportunities but they lacked a true goal scorer,they had 73% ball possession and also they had the most chances,it was only thanks to Brentford goalkeeper that they could not equalize or even win this game.

In the pool I had it 1-2 for Liverpool as the most common result I was expecting but in this round in total I just made 4.5 points and this game started the new round with 0 points for me,I am down several positions from a round ago.

Yeah. That will teach me to put on my faith in them. Thought I was smart to skip them last gameweek, saved the draw disappointment but tonight serves me right.

Worse, couldn't even give you BTTS huh Trofo. And old boy Aurier actually leveled for Nottingham Forest. How the world goes round.

@toke what are you following these days if not football? What the hell could be better than football??

Lol.  I still watch football a bit and read about what's going on from time to time but most of my time spent on anything related to sports betting has been in MMA, mostly the UFC.  No real reason why I like it more these days...  Prolly just a phase and I'll be back spending most of my time in football soon. 

I noticed the change when the covid lock downs started some time in 2020.  There was nothing on except the UFC.  So I got way deeper into it than I already did.

Anyway I got a parlay...  Arsenal ML, Aston Villa ML and Fulham +.5 at 6.07.  Good?

Well atleast you've gotten yourself one though. You guys both have the exact same points on everything. Lol I remembered that I have told you that its better to always go with 2-0 2-1 if you are unsure about it because I just think thats its easier to get close points from this type of score ( someone on the pool still does it frequently )

@cryptofrka yeah the way we play, if I didn't have feelings for Liverpool I'd be very excited about Brentford.

But because of my bias, I feel I got pretty decent odds on Liverpool if I say so myself at about 16/10. Actually can still get it 17/10 at Sportsbet with boost but there is a pretty good tip for Liverpool and almost any favourite in EPL this season: wait for them to concede first.

Toney probably not as badly injured as he appeared but our away form is horrible, hence the odds. But Numez could have had a hattrick in the last three... Maybe floodgates finally open?

In fact, handicaps for the team conceding first seems the way to go. Trofo's BTTS also solid but I would only use it on Betbuilder.
