Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL)

Watford narrowly lost to Ajax last night, have you guys seen Watford’s new kit sponsored by sportsbet.io? It’s the company I have in my signature.



You can read about the kit deal they made with Watford here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1458034.0

Wow that great news for sportsbet.
It is going to increase adoption and awareness for the cryptocurrency betting.
I hope that after Watford there will be other teams that would have sponsors crypto casinos in their shirts.

I consider it a good exposure for crypto since sportsbet's payment method is bitcoins. We need more exposure for bitcoins. By the way, any idea how much money they are spending? I bet it's huge!

I think that they are spending a lot of money as they are exposed to the Premier League which is a league that has a lot of viewers during the period.
Watford is a good team for sportsbet as it would be one of the cheapest teams that accepts sponsorships in the league.
Let's see more initiatives like this one and more people will come in the industry to gamble.

De Gea's future in MU is getting brighter. De Gea is rumored to be signing a new contract after MU's preseason tour. His dream in the future would always be in the team and his desire to become the main captain might be one of the motivations that kept DE GEA alive.

I think the only way De Gea’s future at club level gets brighter is if he leaves Man Utd. They’re terribke & he’s wasting his career at a crap club in the Europa League.

Great motivation De gea isn't really about being the main captain. The reason for staying in the Manchester United is to remain the main goalkeeper, not a backup. And it's still a good choice for De Gea to stay at MU. I don't think if he moved clubs he would raise his level.

Oh man, you are talking about Manchester United, not Doncaster Rovers (with all due respect to this club and his supporters). MU is one of the biggest clubs in the world and one or two bad seasons is not enough to call them "crap club".

A bad season for Manchester United is not one or two seasons. More precisely is after being left by the SAF, since then MU really lost his identity. But I really disagree if he really says Manchester United is a less good team, a garbage club or so on.

Man Utd have been poor since Ferguson left, maybe crap club was harsh. They are a huge club but they’re not in a good place right now. They probably won’t compete for the big trophies for a long time.

Well it is 2019 and whilst obviously they're not the greatest team it is quite funny to think that they're not even a top 5 club right now and it could get worse. I'm sure they'll have their day again but I can't see it being anytime soon. I found these videos about Man U from the Dream Team youtube channel pretty funny:

I recommend subscribing if you're a football fan.

Does anyone know a sportsbook that does specials on cross tournament accumulators? I want to put a couple of bets on like Liverpool to win the Premier League and Man City to win the Champions League and vice versa.

Still looking for this bet. I accidentally put £20 on Liverpool to win pretty much all competitions yesterday. Was just seeing how much the max bet was and actually submitted it:


PMSL. Was pretty pissed off but I guess I know who I'll be rooting for for everything this season. Probably more so than a Liverpool fan haha. I don't think anyone has ever won all four comps before have they?

If you think you know your PL football then put your money where you mouth is and win some prizes. All money is split between the top five winners and the more people that join the bigger the pot gets. Hopefully the price of BTC will rise during the season and stops a couple of days before the next halving so we could end up with an expanding pot like the first pool (though obviously the opposite is also true   ).

Just noticed the pic with Sportbet's Watford kit deal.  I was also passing by some random book shop and saw a book called 'The Bitcoin Billionaire'...  With BTC becoming mainstream, I'm kinda thinking it's becoming somewhat uncool.  Lol.

You won’t be thinking bitcoin is uncool when we’re driving Lambo’s, doing blow every weekend & banging the hottest hookers in the world. Bitcoin is the key to our future.

Watford’s deal with sportsbet will make football fans aware of crypto, every little step counts towards mainstream adoption.

Lol.  We'll see.  I've been accumulating more and more XMR tho.  I think it's the future of crypto as a store of (hidden) value.

Toke, you always get it  While btc hodlers are driving $4M lambos, in the long run we, monero hodlers, will be driving $13M Rolls Royce Sweptails and disgustingly expensive Bugattis. Cheers~

Frank Lampard was very satisfied with the performance of the Blues. "I am very happy. It is really good on and off the pitch. Especially today, I see there are many very signs of what we have done, which is very good. There is a lot to improve, but this is a good trip," LAmpard said on the official Chelsea website.
Chelsea managed a 2-1 win over Barcelona in a pre-season match. In Saitama Stadium 2002, Saitama, Japan, Tuesday (7/23/2019).

I don't want to imagine your chances of winning your bet with Liverpool having Man City as a potential competitor on each of the four tournaments and of course no team in England has ever won all four competition in the same year. IIRC Man City were said to be the first team to win all England three major tournaments.

Never a bad thing beating Barcelona at any level in any competition. I think Lampard has a tough job this season though, they’ve sold Hazard & can’t replace him due to the transfer ban. I think if Lampard can somehow get Chelsea top 4 it’d be seen as a good season.

This is a good start for Lampard and Chelsea. Because with satisfactory results, of course they are ready in every official competition for the 19/20 season. At a minimum, their hopes might be like that, to be able to enter the Champions League next season again, it is a pride for Lampard to be able to bring Chelsea at least to enter the UCL zone.

the ball is round. Everything is possible. Just remember, season 2017/18 he finished in the second position, just behind Man.City who have a brutal team. For example, Smalling, Jones, Yang (probably worst players in MU) and De Gea already won Premier League with Man.UTD, while none of Liverpool players did succeed with the current club(same thing in Arsenal, Tottenham)
Just want to say, two good players with a good season, plus little team chemistry can change everything (Leicester City). Manchester United have the power of money and certainly will not surrender and satisfying with the middle of the table.
After 26 years of dominance with SAF it's expected a transition period.

There is no hazard, Chelsea remains Chelsea. They are a team not just about hazard. By beating Barcelona, of course this is the beginning of a good belief for Lampard to always be consistent in every pre-season or other match.

Well I would have rather put it on City to be honest, but I probably wouldn't have put more than £2 on each. I just hope the mistake turns out to be a blessing in disguise. It'll be pretty exciting if Liverpool are doing really well in all competitions as they progress.

Also another bump:

Also don't forget the prizes superbru offer as well:

£50,000 to be won every week
You could win up to £50,000 depending on the number of exact scores you can predict in each round of 10 matches!

- 10 exact scores: £50,000
- 9 exact scores: £10,000
- 8 exact scores: £1,000
- 7 exact scores: £500
- 6 exact scores: Your choice of Premier League jersey
- 5 exact scores: A Superbru Yellow Cap

The odds of winning them are pretty ridiculous but it can be done. Here are the winners from last season:



Gotta be in it to win it. Would be awesome if somebody won one of the prizes from here.

If a team can't survive when they lost 1 player then they'll get a lot of problems. Liverpool, for example, failed to reproduce their achievement when Suarez or Torres left, but it seems they've learned to deal with it when Coutinho leaves.

I do think losing Hazard is regrettable for Chelsea but that's how football works. Either you deal with it or you will fail to win anything.

That’s correct but Man Utd won the real treble in 1999 (PL, FA Cup & CL). That was a lot more difficult than what Man City did.
Liverpool won a treble in 2001 too (FA Cup, League Cup & Europa League which was called the UEFA Cup at the time).

Losing Hazard is imminent and would have happened someday one or the other, my only pity for Chelsea was that they didn't get the opportunity to replace him due to their transfer ban, but they'd have to live with it.

Lampard has started off on the right foot, but pre-seasons matches are never an indication of what the season holds.
