Looks like the top four are all guaranteed a winning place now regardless of the results today, but fifth place is still all to play for. There's only six points between tenth and fourth place so anyone of them could grab it still. If anyone is out of the top five race you could still grab a consolation prize for a high scoring round but you'll need to beat 19.5 points or more to be in with a chance of winning so don't give up just yet  (though I have  ).

I'm really hoping City go a goal down early or it's something like 0-0 at half time so it makes it a bit more exciting and gives Liverpool the shot. In reality I think City have an easier time today and will probably comfortably win against Brighton but I'm expecting both to win. Will Ageuro get another last minute goal that wins them the title? I hope not.

Well guys, it's been a pleasure playing with you all. Short of a Liverpool style 4-poing-swing-comeback, looks like LFC will win, and deservedly so. Will give him some nice spending money for his trip to the Champions League final.

It was a nice experience as always competing against the best players in EPL during this year , while in theory I have a chance to finish fifth, in reality it is just impossible. I give up, I just play this last 10 games for fun, I still have 1 slim chance to finish 5th at least in CL pool.

I have already written that off as a loss. Now I am hoping for last minute suprise.

Hah!  Didn't turn out that way tho. 

Anyway big matches for us both this weekend.  It's gonna decide who wins the super mega prize of 30 bucks.  Lol.

Yep. I think this is it. Of course, inside me, and inside every Red, we want to fight on till the last. We have one final home game at Anfield, and one final Anfield European night. All in the space of 6 days. So let us give everything to our fans, even if we have to still taste defeat, let it be a beautiful failure, as Klopp says.

I'm putting half of my fairlay balance tonight on Liverpool to Qualify for the final and half for them to win the league. It's not much left, but if I win just one, I delay my deposits a couple of weeks;)

Fat lady ain't singing yet, boys!

After City win against Leicester, I think we already know the champion. City will play against Brighton in last round and I just can't see them bottling against this team. LFC will play against Wolves which is trong opponent, but they are fighting for nothing already.
I just feel sorry for LFC fans, you've been so close both in UCL and EPL, but probably they will end another season without trophies. On paper everything is still possible in both tournaments but I don't see how it can happen.

Fun fact (not  so fun for LFC supporters): If Man City wins the league Leicester will receive another 5 million pounds for Mahrez transfer. Which means if Leicester takes some points tonight they will effectively burn 5 million pounds. Conflict of interest?

Fully expecting City to win tonight but to console my misery as an LFC fan & the unravelling of our season I’m trying my best to win a cool 0.1BTC in our Cloudbet pool. It’s still so close at the top with only 11 matches to go (including Man City vs Leicester tonight).

Weeell, maybe for beer money but I will skip. City looks too damn good.

For high stake ticket I went for both to score @1.8. It seems like a good odds to me since Leicster and especially Vardy like to score goals when playing against top teams.

@Trofo I didn't watch any of the matches yesterday but judging from the stats on my Livescores app, United and Arsenal contrived to see who could miss out Champions League in the most appalling fashion. United probably takes the cake for that, apparently several open goals missed... but I am reminded that Liverpool were also non-clinical at Nou Camp so I guess every team has its blips. Some teams have chronic blips!

Spurs tottered, but managed to cling on. Chelsea even with Sarri disaster, also in for CL. Have to say it's the right destiny. Arsenal and United would just be fodder in CL on their current form.

Anyone else with me for a continued Vardy/Leicester renaissance at Etihad tonight? Was 20/1, now 17/1 at Fairlay. They did it once already this season;)

Well they are 2:0 up so I am hoping at least for a goal from Deeney. I played both to score @2.0 which seemed like a gift at that time. Can't watch that match since my provider is showing Man U but from 1.st half statistics it looks like Watford had their chances.

By the way, Man Utd just conceded from their own corner 

The Rodgers factor is a strange one haha. He wants people to know how good he is and he will probably make a second documentary of he somehow beats City at their own den tomorrow.

@hilarious thanks for the yellow cap update. One last week for that to change next week. Pretty amazing Mosala got 26 points, same as real life Mo sitting pretty at the Golden Boot table.

And yes, as much as I hope, if City win tomorrow, it's all over.

Meanwhile, looking forward to Chelsea losing to Troy Deeney.

^  Ah Brendan Rodgers is pretty much gonna move aside and let City win the match.  He left Liverpool with a bad taste in his mouth.  Lolol.

Liverpool were lucky yesterday. Thought they were going to blow it. If man City win the game against Leicester tomorrow then they've pretty much won the title as Brighton are safe now so there's nothing left for them to play for really other than pride (but no shame in losing to City).


Several people had it after that game including me.

We should disqualify users who get two of the same points, right? Or only one of them counts, yeah? 

Yeah you got the spoon for scoring lower on global ranking. You only get the spoon if you actually put in predictions. Don't worry, the spoon isn't unique. Pretty sure every one of us almost has got it once at least. Think I had it plenty of times to remember.

So far so good on my palace/hammers/pool parlay at 8/1 as it's half time and the Reds are leading 2-1 but Newcastle are as usual thorny as ever. I entertained some fantasy of 4-0 but on evidence of the first half, we'd be lucky to score 2 more.

Salah with 22 goals and things looking good on betting but I'd give away all my betting money and more to have had 1 more replay at City.

On the pool table, looks pretty set doesn't it? Can't see top 5 changing.

The wooden spoon is your "reward" for last gameweek where you collected 2.5 points. Mosala also got 2.5 points but you are ranked below him on some criteria, don't know which. It seems we have some guys who stopped playing and got 0 points in that round but they are not contenders for spoon.

Why I have the spoon with only 1 game played, did everybody else got correct score on Everton vs Burnley game or is it a bug, it says I am the worse performing player and I know I am compared to last year but it is just one game

^ ^  Don't jinx iiit!!!  City doesn't have it in the bag til they actually have it in the bag, running around the pitch with the trophy and with the team throwing Pep up in the air.  Lolol.

I am stilling hoping Leicester decides to play bravely against City. Of course they will have to defend but they have good players for counter attacking game if they bring enough players to the opponents half after gaining ball possession. Leicester doesn't have to play for anything and they can go out on Etihad and enjoy themselves. Vardy usually likes to score a goal or two against top sides so we could have a nice encounter with lots of chances/goals.
