I've surprised myself this week with two correct scores and the other two correct outcomes to come out joint first of the round so far. Need to start picking up some points cos I've been doing terrible this season.

It looks like you are right,Brentford is winning at home in the first half and judging by the way that both teams are playing I think I have lost my prediction and most probably Brighton cannot turn things around but I am pretty confident that they will at least score one goal to make that golden bet in the Premier League happen at both teams to score yes.

I was deceived by the fact that Brentford had only won 1 of their last 7 games and that is why I chose a Brighton win because normally my gut feeling was 1-1 as a prediction for this game.

Looks like most of us were wrong. Only 6 people backed the home win.

What do you guys think of Arsenal to win and BTTS combo at 2.85? I think that's pretty good odds if we play with the numbers the books are giving us. Leeds over .5 goals is around 1.50 or close to it, Arsenal to win is at 1.55 but Arsenal and BTTS is at 2.85? I think that's a pretty good number imho.

I haven't gone for them getting a goal but they could, especially at home. I wouldn't count on it though.

Another line I like is Man City straight up at 1.89 for obvious reasons. Not sure why it's decently high with how good they're running.

Feels like a trap, this has 2-0 arsenal written all over it. What are the odds on Arsenal to win and BTTS "No"?

That's the score I've gone for too.

I always hate Crystal Palace what a shit mid table team.

With always the same team, only change a very few names for season to season , and always the same outcome.

Guaita as goalkeeper, Milivojevich shooting some penalty, and of course, the might AYEW and the forever rising star Zaha , i see this shit for , i dont know... 5 years maybe?.

I've ended the day with 2.5 points as it seems. I was expecting Leicester and Fulham both to win but they both got a draw. It was a really unfortunate result for Leicester by the way because they were much better playing side against Crystal Palace. I've seen them this much strong in defense second time in this season but this was one of the rare matches that they couldn't score a goal either.

I expected a more comfortable win for Wolves and predicted 3-0 for that. However they got stuck at 1-0. Tottenham - Everton was the closest match that I was going to predict the exact score as mine was 3-1. Tottenham showed a really good level of performance and finished off their opponent easily. If Everton were able to score maybe my prediction would come true as well.

SB has City money line at 1.87 at the moment, but man that's a tough one. You really wanna bet against LFC at home with their backs against the wall? I haven't locked in my prediction on the pool, but currently I've got that match as a tie. I want to see the lineups before I change my mind.

I know I am taking City to win or both to score in this match. Both should pass quite easy in my opinion but maybe both to score is a bit more secure. Liverpool is horrible in defense and City is scoring whenever they like it. Liverpool isn't bad going forward and I can see them making a lot of trouble for City in some parts of the match.

I know I am watching the game and I am expecting a cracking one with result like 3:2 for City Grin

Well not the best of the week regarding the points in the pool anyone is getting but I can't complain myself I see myself less than 15 points from the first place in the standings while 2 weeks ago I was at 43th place near the bottom far away in points to the leaders,I never dream about getting there but just saw the standings now.Tottenham gave me a hand with an exact score to help recover those 3 places lost during the other games of today.

I didn't see Bournemouth equalizing against Fulham as that is the only game I missed from the games of today but the best games of the week are tomorrow,they can make a difference for the good or the worst.

Lol. I love a good smart ass reply to a rhetorical question. Cheesy

I don't know, but I think tokeweed might be on to something. I like Leeds for a goal most of the time, but funny thing is my prediction in the pool is exactly what Hhampuz suggested. I'm actually torn between that prediction or 1-3 Arsenal. I've been predicting 3 goals for the Gunners the last two weeks, and they've rewarded me with exact predictions both times. Should I break the pattern?

Didn't watch so can't explain another Leicester City scoreless outing. Precious point or opportunity missed? First item of news I read was fans calling for Brendan to go and I can't see a way out for him now even if they win next game as they would likely still be bottom then.

Did not see Bournemouth scoring 2 either. Need to stop putting money down on these games!

Guys don't forget that we start this week early with a Brentford vs Brighton game tonight.I think in this game it is only natural to back Brighton which has only lost two games against strong teams while Brentford has suffered really big by winning only 1 of 7 last games that they played.The odds of the game suggest for a draw but I think backing a Brighton win tonight should be generally a good idea or to be sure why not go for that golden bet in Premier League that happens at least 90% of the time which is both teams to score yes.

Whew, thanks for reminding us. I was feeling lazy and was planning on making my predictions tomorrow morning.

Brighton could win but I wouldn't underestimate Brentford at home. They've had just one loss at home so far and it was vs Arsenal which I think we could give Brentford a pass for it. Most notable win at home is vs Man United, 4 - 0. They also won vs Leeds 5 - 2. They're losses away are vs Newcastle, ok sure and vs Fullham which should be kinda sketchy but it was an away game.

It looks like you are right,Brentford is winning at home in the first half and judging by the way that both teams are playing I think I have lost my prediction and most probably Brighton cannot turn things around but I am pretty confident that they will at least score one goal to make that golden bet in the Premier League happen at both teams to score yes.

Yeah except that I gave Brighton too much credit in this spot. Had it at 2 - 2 in the pool.

Got the result, but really needed Brighton to score to get 3 points, always feels "hollow" when getting a mild upset right but not reaping the full rewards from it. Welbeck had a few good sniffs but Brighton seemed to want to keep playing neat tricky football when they should have been far more direct with Brentford. Raya put out quite a show though...

Quote from: Welsh on October 14, 2022, 03:40:43 PM

I can see us benefiting Trent with his current form, and the team form. Like I said before, having Trent push up as much as he does, requires the rest of our defense to be in good form, which they aren't. Therefore, Trent's positioning is highlighted even more. I do think he needs to start running back, and showing a little more urgency though.

I think Diaz is the greatest loss. 6-8 weeks I think I remember reading. That's not awful, but not ideal. Matip is a big loss, but Konate has just come back, and apart from a few games I've found him pretty decent. Quite excited for his future considering his age.

Trent and Salah do need some serious rest I think (well, almost everyone on the team does but they especially, for form and sharpness. The pre-season we did was a backbreaker I think Klopp realised that too, let's hope we really find a way to get this team the rest they need.

But yes I'm a TAA defender but agree he does need to remind himself and Southgate he hasn't forgotten he's a defender. More running back, and less lackadaisical attitudes.

Read the pre-matches from Klopp and Pep and as usual, both so eager to praise the other teams while insisting they've not got a chance tomorrow haha.

I also had a 1-1 draw, and I can't say I wasn't surprised by the result because I didn't expected Brentford to win, not even as flawlessly as they did, and given their recent form of concede the least I expected is a goal or two from Brighton, however Raya literally saved the day with tons of magical saves, he was just impenetrable, the Brighton deserved was at least a goal, Raya was equal to every of their 21 attempts and 7 that were on targets, insane performance! Player of the match imo!

This shows to us unfortunately that even betting on sport relies not always but sometimes completely on luck like yesterday as I would call a lucky day for Raya with his awesome performance that made most of the pool participants get their prediction wrong.

This game gives Brentford the much lost confidence in their recent lost games and winning at home with such no flaws makes them feel really great and are ready for the next game which will not be that far away but in the middle of next week.

And agree on Gomez, he's always been good for me, I feel like we'll miss Matip more than Diaz/Trent, but if it's Konate|VVD and then Gomez and Robbo, I'm very happy.

I'm sticking with Klopp too. Results aside, we're the team I always imagine us to be.

Don't care. Putting whatever money left I can spare on Liverpool v City. 4/1. This was better odds than Community Shield.

Spoken like a true red. I'll never bet against Liverpool that's for sure. I did predict a draw the other day with the Arsenal game, that nearly came in. I'll be betting on a win for Liverpool, and nothing less on the weekend. My predictions themselves in the pool might be a little different. However, since I'm sliding down the leaderboard every week, I might as well chance it since most in the pool will be predicting a high scoring win for City.

Quote from: Welsh on October 11, 2022, 05:58:34 AM

At the end of the day, I love Klopp, and even if we had three seasons of this I wouldn't want him to leave. He did the impossible, and turned that side into a winning team. Alison scored a bloody header for Christ sake. So, I won't stop supporting the boys, Diaz is a massive loss, but I think the Trent injury might benefit us in the short term. Obviously, Trent is world class, but at the moment he's having a rough time. Gomez could potentially build some confidence in that position, and steady our defense a little.

Suffer us hopeless supporters, yeah? I've backed a Liverpool win betting, in pool, and in the 4-3-free Sportsbet freebet promo. What I have done different this time around is predict 2 goals for City, I usually pop in a clean sheet or single concession at worst. The pragmatist in me is awake...

And agree on Gomez, he's always been good for me, I feel like we'll miss Matip more than Diaz/Trent, but if it's Konate|VVD and then Gomez and Robbo, I'm very happy.

The big game to watch this weekend is obviously Liverpool V City, but is anyone backing an upset in the Man U v Newcastle game? Newcastle bagged 4 and 5 goals in the last two games and maybe Manchester will underestimate them. I'll wait for the line-ups before I lock my picks in but there could be a lot of goals in both these games.

Yes, would even put money on it but 35/10 doesn't do the risk justice, at Old Trafford and on a United side who's just pulled through Europa. I really ought to put a fiver on both Manchesters losing though...

From a Liverpool fan, it's hard not to get excited for us showing a glimpse of brilliance in the midweek, but ultimately I believe we'll get beat. City have been brilliant, while we've been at our absolutely worst under Klopp. We're missing a few key players, and it remains to be seen whether we'll actually benefit from Trent having to sit out a few weeks.

City likely beat us. I just hope it isn't by a landslide. Who knows though, Salah got on the score sheet in exciting fashion in midweek, and he could be finding his feet. We also looked as a team in very good shape in the second half against Rangers. Some could say that's because it's only Rangers, but the shape, passes, and fluidity was there despite who we may have been playing.

I'm slightly optimistic to get a result, but I'm not overly confident if that makes any sense. As for the United game, I'm fancying Newcastle. I think United haven't fixed their problems, but merely glossed over them for the time being. Newcastle have that tenaciously that United have lacked the last few years. Although, without trying to sit on the fence too much, could very well see United blow past them if they're in top form.

I'd say with a realistic logical mind frame based on recent form: City win, United draw.

Got my selections added already,i picked for today Brighton they lost couple of points in last few rounds and i think its finally time for them to win again. Last week was terrible for me so hopefully Brighton pulls a win tonight and gives me the boost. Both teams to score is a must today i think,both teams will attack and try and get all 3 points so probobly we will see lots of goals today between these two teams.

I can't pick the winner here so went for the draw. If it was the other way around I would have backed Brighton but I think they'll cancel each other out ultimately.

I've picked the next few weeks in advance, some that were picked before the season began. I didn't change them since I've been awful this season anyhow, and honestly I really haven't picked up on the forms of teams yet. It just seems like a very mixed season, unless I'm just getting that impression because of Liverpool struggling, I don't know.

I can't remember what I picked for the Brighton game, but I'd fancy a draw there. I feel like Brighton could dominate the game, but they struggle to score at times. Whereas Brentford are usually pretty decent at counter attacking sides that have a large amount of the ball. Could be an exciting game, and it could mean both teams end up cancelling each other out.

If I were to slightly lean towards one team over the other it would probably be Brighton.
