if I remember correctly, in previous seasons the winner had over 400pts, there is still a lot to do here. In the previous round for only one point to win the yellow cap, now I take just 2.5 pts. it is very easy to lose points.

I don't think I will make it that way as the Premier League one of its distinction it has,it is that is totally impossible to predict and 9 out of 10 weeks a lot of surprise results happen.I want that yellow cap at least once this season as in the last one I won it together with someone else and I didn't receive the 50 dollars free bet so I want to win at least a yellow cap this year.

By the way do not forget to put your predictions in as tomorrow is another week of action in the Premier League.

Actually, I did so badly. I ended round with these 1.5 points. Now I can't for next round to get rid off wooden spoon.
Seems that in next round most games looks more predictable on paper. And cherry on top will be clash between City and Liverpool on Sunday.

Oh sorry for that but yes I saw it now, but as I said, this is the low scoring week for most people so it wasn't SO bad. I know it means so much less when you have the wooden spoon but I think everybody almost has had it once or twice, if not many times.

is this also just for us from "Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool"?

This is American football so it is public Smiley

I have done 71.5 points in six rounds with an average of 11.9 points per week,if I keep this average until the end of the tournament pretty sure I will end up first.The problem is that it is quite impossible to keep this average during the whole tournament,I aim to get 8-10 points every week and this will keep me in the prize table positions,this is my main objective right now and I don't think about winning the tournament at the moment because it is way to early.

You didn't do so badly in the end actually, since most of us in the middle got 3 points to 6 points and only a handful of users got more than 10 points. A round full of draws which I guess makes it tough for people going for favorites. I feel like I did worse slipping down to 9th position and still one more game to play, while the lead at the top look like it finally broke free.

Wow,great equalizer by Brighton which gave me an exact score for today after failing miserably yesterday by getting 0 points in the two games that were played.I thought that Crystal Palace should have won this as they were playing well,and mostly their goalkeeper had a wonderful night tonight by making a few sensational saves otherwise Brighton would have won the game.Happy to be still first in the standings after 6 rounds now.

Wow! You're increasing the pace than Tomahawk did last season, at least it took him a few weeks before topping the leaderboard and the rest history after that, as he never looked back, it's was a great feat and it's rather way too early to say you'll be able to keep the season trend, but it's a job well done so far..

I had Brighton to the game win 2 - 1, but Palace were the better team in the opening half, while it was Brighton after the break.

Nice average you've got there, really.. And since there 38 weeks if you can get an average 10 points per week, that's 380 points in total, you'll pretty much end up as the winner...

However,  I'm very certain that there will be weeks that 10 point would be practically impossible except you'll be backing multiple upset.

It was tge worst weekend ever for me failed to predict the match outcome for the 8/10 of the games.
The only good thing about it is I got the right games with correct score making me 6points from this round.
Surprisingly I didn't drop in the standings in the pool as I stayed in 8th place.
But the top is 20 points further then me.
In the next gameweek we have a clear of games that are going to be tough to predict Liverpool and Man City,
Brighton vs Arsenal, Leeds vs Watford.
I think in these games where we are going to see people make predictions left and right.

I will give you a hint about Brighton vs Arsenal game,in the last couple of years we have seen mostly surprisingly Brighton wins which were 2-1 so this is the result I am going to post in that game if I don't change my mind until Saturday.For Liverpool and Leeds I think they should win their games,of course Liverpool has a tough one but I think they will win and keep the lead they are in.

Yeah nice job man. I thought for sure I would get a good 1.5 points (I predicted Palace 2-1) but in the end Maupay's fine scoring form continues and I got a nice fat egg from that.

5 points lead is a really big gap, and 10 away from me as I slipped down to 11th place like Spurs (lol).

Special credit to Big G for making the week's biggest progress!

Leeds is giving me hard times, they are real bad at the moment, hopefully they will improve
on the other side, Everton is having another good start, which is great Smiley

Leeds are actually playing like most promoted teams, impressing all the premier league teams, and then getting very tired and out of ideas when their teams are getting injured or exhausted,,, Norwich is problematic too because they keep getting promoted and relegated and each time up they are doing worse than before.

I apologize to anyone who predicted Spurs

As an Arsenal fan, no apology needed!  Grin

Sorry to rub it in, but it was it sure is nice to see the Gunners firing live rounds and not duds as they had for the first three matches of the season.  Three wins in a row, Arteta must be a genius.  I can't believe anyone would ever talk bad about him.  Wink

Another big win for me this round; I'm no longer at the bottom of the leaderboard!  Yaaaay!  Sorry to Welsh for trading places.  Well, at least I'll be polite enough to say I'm sorry.  Cool

No problem,,, just keep rubbing it in because we deserve it. And Arsenal deserve to win also, as I said before people forgot how tough their opponents were in the first 3 matches plus Spurs won against City and that gave everybody the wrong expectations.

Had no idea Palace - Brighton is local derby. Just heard commentator saying how Palace will die on the pitch before they let their arch nemesis Brighton claim top of Premier League. On the other hand if Brighton wins this would be their first time ever on pole position in PL. Really a game with much higher stakes then I thought initially. Maybe I was rash with my both to score pick, I usually avoid that market on high intensity games.

That draw pissed me off.  I originally had a 1 to 1 draw in my prediction, then started over thinking things when I learned that Brighton had a chance to sit atop the league for a week.  I figured they would come out like a house on fire and burry Palace to make it happen.  I should have stuck with my gut instincts.   Sad

yeah, Zaha scored from penalty spot, and that made Crystal Palace ahead, but it is a tight, or we can say a bit boring match
Brighton had good start, but all teams that they had played so far, were with teams that will probably fight in the lower part of the table (except Everton that easily won over them)

second half just started

Another tight, tight game, but Palace ahead from a Zaha penalty, and a low scoring, low card, low corner 2nd half beckons. Monday night football just feels like Monday night football, huh, guys. Need Brighton to get one more and get me some more points to end the week on a high.

P.S. I almost forgot Benitez was at Everton. Was watching all the weekend highlights building up to tonight's game at Palace, and then saw Rafa at the tunnel. Fairplay, but he won't beat his old team any time this season =p

After today's results, I think I should retire from EPL pool. If someone think that they perform bad, just hold my beer - 1.5 from 7 games today. Brentford 3:3 Liverpool - how it's even possible? What a game it was! Ok, I can't complain that I didn't predicted upset in this or MU - Villa game. But this season I always back wrong side in 50/50 games like Chelsea - City or Watford - Newcastle. Tomorrow games including North London derby also doesn't looks easier to predict. So, wooden spoon, here I come!

You didn't do so badly in the end actually, since most of us in the middle got 3 points to 6 points and only a handful of users got more than 10 points. A round full of draws which I guess makes it tough for people going for favorites. I feel like I did worse slipping down to 9th position and still one more game to play, while the lead at the top look like it finally broke free.
