After checking out my next fixture on my betslip I had for the later matches today:

Noticed the Manchester match has been postponed when looking for more news about it found this:
https://www.si.com/soccer/manchestercity/news/pep-guardiola-urges-manchester-city-players-to-be-careful-amid-rise-in-covid-19-cases

BBC news reported there were 42 players in the league who had been ruled out of play. An now Kevin Debruyne was the next one to come down with it.
But this was reported several days prior before they faced the Wolves over the weekend.
https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-city-predicted-lineup-wolves-22431926

So there could be more who have to isolate from the team.

Yes, you are. Smiley But of course it wasn't intentional, as you said before.
No one would deliberately bet 0-2 for an away win for Leeds United. I do such mistakes too, and always, after finding it out, I hope that a miracle will happen and I'll be the only one with the exact score. But it's not happening. Ever. Smiley

I'd be putting in all my picks til December if I were you guys, and then coming back to change them when the time is near. Think a number of us are also in 2 other league pools so we're making 30-60 picks a single week all month!

I know right, I only just did my predictions for midweek. So many games this time of year, it’d be easy to forget to submit a round of fixtures & then if you’re at the top of the pool, competing for the money like yourself it could lose you money.



I put them as they come.I do a simple Flashscore check in the morning when I come at work and see if there are any Premier League games during that day,if they are I start putting predictions.This way I don't forget any game,most of us I think go to work daily and this can be done to minimize your chances of forgetting to put your picks.

A lot of games in December and usually is now the part where someone at the top start going away.

hedged risk on Everton, put 2:1 in the pool, so all good if we actually draw or win tonight, although would prefer us to win, if we do not lose Smiley
actually, with 1:0 at the moment, I do think that Everton has chances to score, maybe even to make turnover like on Monday, against Arsenal

Had my hopes up when Rondon put a goal in, 2-2 would have put me at Close, but Palace too strong in the end. Quirk of the game, I still can't believe they lost that badly.

This week we have tight schedule one week is going to be played Tuesday to Thursday and the other in the weekend.There are twenty games during this week so the standings will move a lot in the top 20.

Chelsea goals have to be drying up soon, no?

Yellow cap race is neck and neck with me just one point behind swogerino and a half-point ahead of jayce  Smiley

I feel like it's a bad idea to back an Everton win so maybe I'll revert back to Palace. Damn it I'm about 87 minutes late for the match  Angry

I do not know how the sportsbook oddsmakers can get this right,,, they made Crystal Palace a bigger favorite than Everton but when I look at them, for me the better team is clearly Everton. Apart from Wilfried Zaha who anyway has not scored for a while, Palace players are not stronger than Everton to me.

Even manager wise who will ever say Viera is better than Benitez?

But this week's matches bookies were all 100% right even with the draw of West Ham.

It is not better Everton,that deceived me too as I placed a draw in the predictor but I forgot that Everton before winning with Arsenal had only lost games in a consecutive way.If I was to be more careful and not directly placing the prediction without checking team stats I would also got a Crystal Palace win.This week yes the big favorites all of them won which is something strange that in Premier League happens very rarely.This week we have tight schedule one week is going to be played Tuesday to Thursday and the other in the weekend.There are twenty games during this week so the standings will move a lot in the top 20.

Despite getting points from the first 6 fixtures, I finished at number 32 for the game week, the first 6 games were the easy once and the last 3 is literally what decides who finish in top spots and who doesn't..

Newcastle's defeat and West Ham's draw are the hardest to take in for me, I felt both picks would go my way and it would have been an easy call.

yeah, match was almost over, but was not finished until Galagher scored and squeeze me exact 2:1 score Sad
this is first two slam points round for me

do not forget that there is a mid-week round in Premier league, and we are closing down to New year tight schedule, that could see some differentiation on the top, due to large number of matches in few weeks

Got nothing riding on Everton but would be great to see them share points tonight... think the odds were slightly for the home team though.

home win would bring me 8 results this round, so another slam point, which is probably best result in this pool, all time, for me

Weird Leicester game for sure! I was playing a different system on a long many leg acca and took over 2.5 goals in this, didn't expect it all to come from one side, nor to all come relatively late in the game... and I've to say, Newcastle have themselves to blame for giving a cheap penalty to open the floodgates.

Still ended up losing the acca on the final leg -- Over 0.5 goals in Burnley-West Ham... only 1.15x to boost everything else but well, well, well, a scoreless game. Surprised to see some people got the exact score on this!

But yeah, so far a good week for all favourites, most of us should get close to max slam points on this week... pity about Spurs missed game though, that and the one before cost a slam point or two for those like hahay with many correct outcomes!

What a strange day in Premier League, all the big favorites had problems and all have managed to win with just a single goal margin, and that goal came from penalties in most cases. Must say that I was sure at least one of them would loose points and others would win much easier and that is the reason why I skipped betting on them since I could not decide on upset. I just had a bet on Arsenal which came easier than expected.

I am thinking Leicester - Newcastle has to have a lot of goals in it. My bet is going on both to score. Placing it immediately before I loose my balance on some early games Smiley

First time ever i got all 5 wins i think since i started this tournament. Thank god all favorites turned it around got an extra slam point aswell hopefully i can win all of the premier league matches this week and finally reach that top 10 position and try to attack some prize positions

Got another Manchester City correct score and was about to get a Chelsea one but they screw up right now in the last minutes and they got an equalizer from Leeds,if Chelsea is not able to win again then I think it is not a strong contender for the title.All the other strong teams like Arsenal and Liverpool are winning well Arsenal comfortable but Liverpool just a bare minimum but important are only the three points in such phase.

Edit:How nice Leeds goal gone and a correct score so far again nice.Screwing up also Flashscore but at least 3-2 for Chelsea in 94 minute.

Brentford with the complete comeback to steal the show, I felt this was going to be an easy win for Brentford but Watford almost earned point, not sure if it would have been deserved though.

1.5 points kickstart the game week isn't bad at all, especially since it had to come at the very brink of the game.

Yeah this was a total Hail Mary comeback to get me an exact score too. I really don't like putting 2-1 scores for these tight games but they seem to be the right way to go... Though a penalty in last minute of injury time is a true gift. Ranieri will be pretty frustrated by that.

Out today till evening so will miss the early games. Hope Wolves do us a favour and steal points, also hope Chelsea continue to leak goals... But we have our own job to do dispatching the Villains.

Cold weather play. Great for gegenpress haha.

Many people including me started this week like they should with a correct score on the Brentford game.I also won some little money as the odd of 2.15 was really good to me so I bet a bit on Brentford although I was not sure about them winning as the Premier League is full of surprises.Let's see today,many people will go for a parlay with the stronger teams all playing at home against weak opponents,I will not as I doubt all the strong teams will win today because surprises always happen here in such cases.

Perfect result for me to start this week amazing. Smells good for this round hoping i get at least 15+ points in this round. Also got a bit lucky with that late penalty in the end for Brentford but happy to finally hit a correct result in the league

also had an exact score on this match, and that brought me on spot 4, have to write a post about it, since I do not think that I will be able to hold position for long, and it is my best position in the pool so far

it was a tough match to guess, since Watford is in the series of bad results, and Brentford won last home match against Everton, but a bit of luck and 3 points from Friday inauguration match
