It's really not happening for City this season is it? I actually bet ON them at HT seeing the odds for them to win at 3/1 and I thought they'd do it once Foden got the equaliser at 50th min. Palace continue to be really good to bet on if you like 2/1 and 3/1 odds.


It happened to all teams. I just check top 7 on the table. if we exclude Liverpool which is located in a real zone, other in top seven is Everton, Aston Villa, Leeds United, Southampton, Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton. who could have expected this? Liverpool had the worst defence in the league?
I think I miss everything in this round  Sad

I watch Liv vs. Sheffield yesterday, I must say Liverpool were very lucky and it could have looked different.
Southampton wins 3:0 against Everton, it seems the honeymoon is slowly passing.

Going for dinner now so will miss Chelsea win, no money on the game except a parlay I already lost.

Chelsea players also missed this win  Cheesy

I think Leeds will push on until January/February at least. As long as they will be able to stick to their current game plan, they will do well.
The problem is that Bielsa's teams always run out of gas at some point and when they do - they can't find their way back because the players are simply too worn out. It won't happen that fast though.

Yeah it was always going to be how they can push other teams. No Europe, so they have all fuel tanks on the Prem League, and the Championship where they faltered 2 seasons ago is more gruelling in terms of games so they might be able to do well for as long as they can maintain a cushion come Jan.

Well sterling had a lot of chances in the match especially at the end of the game,he should have won it for city,while chelsea and man utd is another dead game as i see with 0:0,hard to predict what will happen in this match.

Keeps adding fuel to the case that he isn't a good striker if he's not got confidence around him (I think it's just form), though he should be all right now with Aguero back in the team. Didn't see Chelsea/Utd but even the stats suggest it was a dull affair. Goals drying up now?

heh! Hundreds of millions spent in transfer only to have one (1) shot on target against one of the weakest Man utd sides in decades. At least Mendy is turning out to be a great GK, who even is Kepa at this point?  Grin

btw, should Burnley get a good result tomorrow vs. Spurs, Man Utd would finish Matchweek 6 closer to the relegation zone than to the #1 spot...Only 5 games so far tho, yes, but still...

Liverpool vs Sheffield? i have a 3-0 home win, but meh, watch The Blades steal the 3 pts because this is the most ramdom EPL season ever 😒

Um yeah. I actually missed the penalty, but I think we were lively most of the second half leading up to Jota's header (his first in the Prem actually haha). Salah deserved a goal, I can't believe how super sharp he's been this season so far, just a pity he's peaking again when our defence... isn't.

I think they'll be lucky to get a point from Tomorrow's game. They might get a point from Leicester too, but could easily lose them both. Leicester are playing Arsenal away on Sunday so I'll wait for the result of that before I make my mind up but they've already lost two in a row but Leeds losing at home to Wolves has me worried.

Leeds started really well, surely as a newly promoted team the goal is just to stay in the PL. I know they will want to have a really good season but staying in the league is the most important target for them. Once they get to something like 40 points they can relax & play without pressure.

I don't think they'll have any problem staying in the league this season given the way they've been playing and especially given how shit some other teams have been playing like Fulham, Sheffield and Burnley. West Brom and Brighton as doing poor as well so Leeds should be safe unless they bottle it or something and go to shit.

Has everyone made picks for the next round already? The last one was pretty good for me (better than the previous ones, and I moved up the leaderboard a bit), and naturally, I hope they'll keep getting better Grin
Then again, it doesn't feel like Round 6 will be an easy one. There are quite a few games were both teams winning and a draw seem very realistic outcomes (Aston Villa vs Leeds United, Manchester United vs Chelsea are just a couple of examples IMO).
What are your anticipations about Round 6?

I wonder if this will put an end to Leeds's good form? They dominated the first half but just couldn't score (well, apart from the disallowed goal). Wolves turned it around in the second half but a draw probably would have been more fair in my opinion. Leeds have Villa away on Friday and Villa have won all their games so far including beating Liverpool 7-2 at home and Leicester away so I think they might lose that one as well. Leeds then play Leicester next

What a race in Round 5, @Trofo missed the yellow cap by 0.5, overtaken in the last bend by @Joca97, congrats!

I needed one goal from Leeds to secure that yellow cap and to win my multi ticket. It wasn't meant to be even though Leeds deserved at least a draw if not full 3 points from this match. It was all Leeds in the first half and they should have scored one of their chances. Wolves were much better after the break as usual.

Wolves and Leeds are probably some of the most attacking teams in the EPL, so the low score was quite abnormal but every game saps the energy from the squad especially when some players are involved in international duties,,, so it is no surprise the goals are starting to slow down. Definitely SOME effect from no fans.

I was expecting only one goal in the game but I backed Leeds to get it.

I read somewhere that Leeds are league leaders for tackles per game, duels won, team distance ran and number of sprints per game. They are 2nd in opposition passes allowed before reclaiming the ball.

We all knew Bielsa's team will play like this, but it really surprises me that they are leading the league in some of these elements - we all know how competitive and demanding the PL is.

Inevitably these numbers will come down as season progresses, it happens to his teams every year. I just hope he's got a game plan for these times too, Leeds really adds extra value to the league and I'm positive they will be a part of it next season too.

Just letting everyone know I moved the funds from the pool to a different address so not to worry if you notice the funds have moved.

This week I didn’t choose as many draws as I usually do and the funny thing this time we had 5 draws so far.I only scored three points with Everton-Liverpool correct score and every thing else is wrong.It says I am at 26 place from 49 but the Superbru engine is busy and I know this should be an error.
I usually pick a few draws each round , but after having only 3 draws in the first 4 rounds - I decided to change my system - doh ! 5 draws this round so far and a shocking 1.5 pts for me  Huh

I think that's where I've been going wrong this season as I pick draws when I can't split the teams but when it's hard to split the teams it's certainly hard to pick the winner. Two of the draws I picked this week came in though including one correct score.

What the hell is happening? I have 1 point from 8 games Grin

27,5 points in 5 rounds, that averages as 5,5 points per round. I'm 45th out of 50 participants and I'm mostly picking favorites.

This will be a crazy season.

Now you know how I felt last week. It happens to everyone though. Lots of draws this week and a couple of shock results I really didn't expect Leicester to lose. Really surprised that six people went with the Villa away win.

Great thing i went with lots of draws this week and got 3 correct results
Hoping leeds wins so that i win this weekend,if it draws im losing my first place for this week

Lets go Leeds!!!

There are no fans in the stadiums and we have completely different competitions.

Yep, football sucks at the moment but I prefer this to no football at all. I really felt like there was nothing to look forward to during peak lockdown when no sport was on. It’s crap but at least we have games to watch now.

I dropped to 18th this time, such a crazy weekend of draws, and most of us did not see it coming,,, least of all me when we were already 3-0 up and the game was almost over. How we did that I do not know. We are still the SAME OLD Spurs week in and week out. No words for that, just time to move on and clean up. Bale,,, next time.

Cracking equaliser for West Ham in injury time and they scored 3 goals all after the 82 minute. Wasn't expecting that result and only two people backed the draw and nobody went for the West Ham win which isn't surprising.

I also see Burley as the favourite in their match against WBA, but will probably chose a score like 2:1 for them. No handicaps for sure.

That game looks like a draw to me. Either way I won't be watching it. Could be zero goals in that.

Leeds - Wolves could be a good match, I currently have 2:1 for wolves in our pool but I could be changing that. I really don't know what to do with this game. Both to score will be my bet but each team has their chances here and it will come out to luck or 94th minute goal. Can already feel another late twist.

Leeds should win given their form, though I think it will be close. With that being said I think Leeds will slip up eventually and it will be to a team that you don't expect.

Didn't watch the match...  How did the Spurs give up three goals in the last 10 mins or so.  So weird.

If I were to bet both Wolves and Burnley matches, which I won't cos..  lost manies, I'd go for first half result 'draw' on both.

Edit:  Which of course are gonna win cos I didn't bet on them.
