Wow, Leicester won big this time in an away match, indeed I'm sure Leicester will win the match but who knows Leicester can make a quick goal like this in the first 10 minutes, Ryan Bertrand is the differentiator in this match.

^ ^  I picked 1 - 1 too..  But it just became like the wrong pick.  Lol.  Bertrand red card at around 12 mins and like 20 - 30 secs after Chilwell goal.  

Edit:  0 - 2 now.

Edit:  In like a couple of minutes...  0 - 3.

Leicester will win this one, no doubt in that. Leicester is hidden gem, the one which is not much talked about but playing really well. I was amazed the way they played against Liverpool. Although they lost but still defeat was nothing less than a win, I won't wonder if Leicester wins league this time. Earlier they gave us Kante, next season Maddison is going to be the hottest product in transfer market.
But Southampton on the other side haven't missed the net for a single time at home. Considering stats, I did give Southampton little respect and going with 1-2.

I'll probably go for the draw, but I'm tempted to go for a close Leicester win, probably at 1-2. I think there'll be a lot of draws/close games this weekend. Only game I'm interested in watching is the Liverpool/Spurs game. Tottenham will probably be fired up after their Champions League game so I hope Liverpool don't go into it thinking it'll be a walk-over. Liverpool really can't afford to drop any more points before they face City early next month.

Norwich/Man United game also might be worth a watch. If United lose that I think Ollie will be in trouble. Pogba is still out but I think United have a couple of other players returning.

Southampton is one of mystery in PL. Only in the first game against Burnley, they did not score but still have only 9 GF. Also, they have a third-worst defence in the league. All of that against Leicester third-best defence.
I expect Leicester to win with a clean sheet.

both to score is my pick for this match
cause there is no Southampton over 0.5, only 1.5, and that's too risky, so I'm more confident with the both to score

Yeah this is a really tough outcome to predict, I haven’t done my predictions yet but will on my lunch-break. It could go either way, I think I’m tempted to pick Leicester to win but not sure what score yet.

Today we have only one game
Southampton FC - Leicester City

Southampton has scored almost one goal in the last 10 played games, but I'm giving an advantage to Leicester to win this game
My pool pick is 1:3, but I'm still not sure what to bet on, the over goals of Southampton or the victory of Leicester

What do you think?

I wouldn't want Ozil in my team under any circumstances. Especially with his current contract which puts him firmly into top 10 most paid footballers. In front of him are only untouchables like Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar and Mbape which are game changers every single week and arguably deserve those contracts. I can't remember last time Ozil played a good game.

You can’t expect to win the big trophies when you have no leaders. Since Vieira, Henry etc Arsenal have no leaders. On a warm, sunny day they’re fine but what about in winter, night kick off away at somewhere like Burnley. I wouldn’t want Ozil in my team in these circumstances.

Yep, the best description of every Arsenal team in the last 10 years or so. It takes 3 games at the beginning of every season to see they will not win anything again.

Arsenal have had the same problems for years, they have no fight & no backbone. They have talented players but it takes more than talent to be a great team.

This is really shocking result as I check in pool just Brainboss is with 1.5 points and all others are with wrong result mean 99% members expecting Arsenal to win but Shef United done good job and steal the show.

I am not aware of that but the guy is using Android TV so it would been a comparatively easy for him to search and download from Google Play Store.
I agree broadcasting Desktop screen on TV is a kinda alternative way out. Using hotstar is also easy on desktop as you just have to visit the website. Try it and if that's possible just PM me and I will provide you Premium account details.

Can’t believe Sheffield United beat Arsenal. It just doesn’t get any better better for Arsenal does it, nothing ever changes

I have a Samsung smart TV. I can't see the App in the Samsung store though but maybe I need to use a proxy for it to show up as I remember the DAZN app wasn't there either when I looked. Did the guy you know need to use a proxy to install it? I guess I could probably just use it via desktop and link it to my TV that way if not as it would be much simpler that way. Using it direct on my TV would be great though.

Yeah! Hotstar provides smart TV app. I have one LG TV and the other one is Samsung, both of these come with native OS and provide Hotstar in their app store. Now depending on your TV and OS, you can search for Hotstar app. I have a friend in Canada having Android-OS based TV and he was able to install hotstar app in his TV. Then I provided him premium account and he's able to watch premium content (incl. live stream) with VPN.

Kodi is just dodgy streams like IPTV etc, right? I'm looking for something more reliable and in HD really. Past streams have just been very laggy, or you spend half the time trying to find a connection that works. I'd happily pay for a legit service but they'll probably never show all the mid day Saturday games over here so I'll have to use one of the companies that do just with a proxy.


Skysports is too expensive and as you say they don't show 3 O'clock games which is what I want it for really. The games I bet on are mostly the mid day games as well.


I have a NORD vpn so I'd be happy to check it out. Do they have an app for smart TVs? Thanks.


Just look who has the streaming rights in all the different countries. The only issue is you'll need a proxy of some sort. ESPN is probably your best bet. They have all the matches with English commentary and for about $65 one off fee: https://www.nbcsports.com/gold/premier-league

The Canadian Dazn has them all as well plus many others leagues and sports for $150 a year: https://watch.dazn.com/en-CA/sports/

A lot of them allow you to watch multiple devices at the same time so I'd be interested in sharing an account with someone of they wanted to spit the price. NBC doesn't but I think dazn allows at least two simultaneous streams.


Yeah, was liking that I was the only one to go for a draw and it was looking like it could come in but they never equalised  .

^  Those are the obv picks to make.  Why would anybody pick Sheffield and Watford to win is beyond me.  I mean anybody could...  If they're feeling lucky gambling.

Someone did it with 2-1 for Sheff lol and he deserved for 1.5 points, hilarious was the one who predict a draw while other participants predicted Arsenal to win the match including me. The same thing happened on Spurs vs Watford where most of us went to Spurs to win, only one person got point from this match with 2-2. Many surprise result last week but it is great for the competition as it will make us think harder before placing our prediction.
