I went with a handicap win for Liverpool. I plan to bet heavily on that as well.

We will punish them for that draw earlier in the season.

Gotta say I have Liverpool to thank for this season. I'm making more than usual on underdogs, but at the same time doing more badly on the exotic leagues, BUT hedging with Liverpool-only parlays have been more than making up for losses so far (even taking into account Napoli that killed my biggest hedge).

Liverpool Man Utd forming a pretty strong leg of another parlay (-1.25 handicap) so definitely need it to win, preferably by 2 goals;) It's really not the tie up it used to be though huh. No Pogba and no Rashford, so the bookies really adjusting this one down. Hoping to eat them up and kill whatever life left in them. Sorry United =p

Liverpool would have too much even if Pogba & Rashford were fit. The team Klopp has built is a real destroyer over the last 2 seasons. The Arsenal Invincibles & Man City of 2 seasons ago are the only two comparable in PL history to my memories.

I am looking forward to Liverpool vs Utd match. I am having this feeling that I will get a correct score in this match LOL

What have you gone for? A surprise 5-0 shock away win for United?   I'm sure the pool picks from everyone will be quite varied. I wonder how many if any at all will go for the draw of even the Man U upset?

I'll make my picks tomorrow, I like to read some highlights first on sports media before the score prediction 

Liverpool vs. MUTD, uff. a tough match, but I'm convinced in Liverpool's victory
Worth watching live of course

It's probably the only game I'll watch this weekend (except for the early QPR/Leeds game in the Championship). I'll obviously be backing Liverpool but I'm really not sure what score to go for. It could be a narrow home win or an absolute drubbing. Would be funny if United got some points from it though.

I'm not sure I'd bet on this game. I expect Liverpool to win but a shock result or specifically a draw wouldn't exactly shock me either. I'll probably wait for the line-ups though and as you say Pogba and especially Rashford being out really isn't good for them so a strong home win will probably be likely.

Liverpool vs. Manchester United is always uncertain.
Liverpool has not under pressure to win every game. They have enough points in reserve, so not having to win at all costs. There is a difference between this and some of the previous seasons. I guess first they will want not to lose this game on counterattack like Manchester City against United.
I don't think there it can be many goals but everything is possible.

[tokeweed]

^  But if there was a fixture they'd be under pressure to win and being at home, it's def vs United.  They just can't lose this one.

Yep , I was unsure at first , but I just can’t see Liverpool losing. If they do , it could be the start of a run of a few games of loss of form. Nothing significant, but every team has a little ‘blip’ and this would be the best part of the season to do it.
And when a mean a loss of form - for Liverpool and this current team - it will only be 1 loss and 1 draw 

[tokeweed]

^  Nope, never.  Not in the form they're in right now.  I pick 2 - 0 for Klopp. 

[Mbitr]

There will be a drop in form, EVERY team has one.
I’m not a Liverpool supporter, but this team is beautiful to watch and unstoppable. I hope for their sake the ‘blip’ happens now , before the champions league restarts . The premier League is already won !!!!

[Harkorede]

Week in week out, It's seems all everyone is looking out for is too Liverpool to lose, It's going to happen one way or the other, You never can tell, United almost did it at Old Trafford, but to win at Anfield ?! Oh, well.

^  But if there was a fixture they'd be under pressure to win and being at home, it's def vs United.  They just can't lose this one.

The rivalry will surely be a source of motivation, but that would be the same for both sides. Man Utd going into game as underdogs also mean they'll almost have nothing to lose.

Made my pics, well, I played risky this round
It will be a yellow cap or a spoon at the end but why not take the risk
There is still a chance for me to grab some prizes here

Hey guys, hope you all made your picks and chose everything wrong It is time I close the gap to the top a bit.

I know that many of you play Jackmate perfect 7 or whatever it is called. Just thought to inform you that Auba is not playing for Arsenal today, he has a red card from his last match. I was just making my picks and choose him as per default for Arsenal games and then remembered. So change your pick and if this my post gets you 1BTC I am expecting at least a bear.

I'll probably go for 2-0 but I'm waiting for the line-ups to be announced and whether Rashford plays. I think Liverpool could stuff them if he's not playing, otherwise it could be a little closer.

I've gone for a lot of draws this so I'm not that confident about this round. Hopefully I can pick up some points on the home wins I've gone for.

Well except if they don't. Arsenal went an entire season without winning and there's no reason that Liverpool can't do it this season, though obviously it's very difficult to do, but I think this Liverpool squad is probably better than Arsenal's prime. I wouldn't put money on it either way though but I think it's probable they will drop a point somewhere but I don't think it's going to be against United. Maybe Liverpool might come out with a draw or something when the Champions League starts again if they decide to rest players for that.

[Trofo]

I am quite sure Liverpool will drop some points soon. Reason being African cup of nations. Liverpool will have to play without Mane, Salah and Keita for more than 2 weeks and quite probably whole month. Have to check later if it is possible to bet already on those games.

No way! not even 0-1 LOL
I gone with 3 -1  for Liverpool and I might be wrong here but I am pretty sure with this dominating attitude Liverpool will get a very easy win against Utd in this match.

This Watford - Tottenham was a tricky pick for me. I considered Kane not in the squad and gone with 1 - 0 Watford. Let's see.

I am quite sure Liverpool will drop some points soon.

If someone will create a pool of Liverpool win the title undefeated vs losing at least a match will be entertaining. I will go with without losing any match.

Anyone interested in a side bet pool?
I can put 2mBTC for Liverpool to win the title undefeated.

If 2mBTC is too much then let's go with 1mBTC for every participants?

African Cup of Nations was already held last summer, there will be no tournament during this season, so Liverpool won't lose their key players.
But I don't believe that they will end season without a loss. It might happen when CL games will begin and Liverpool may focus on it, saving main players on EPL matches.

I'll take the side bet 2 mBTC, Liverpool are not going unscathed this Season...

I went with Tottenham, but looks Deeney blew the chance to make it a 3 points for you. We're into stoppage time already and I don't see any late drama happening here.

Yeah it was unfortunate and the shot was not that good too. Deeney could do better. By the way, Tottenham was unfortunate too. They missed a goal by inches [unbelievable].

By the way, I had a bet for Tottenham too and lost it LOL

Great!


Pool: How will Livepool finish their season (2019/2020)?
1. At-least one defeat
2. Undefeated

BitcoinGirl.Club - Undefeated [2mBTC]
Harkorede  - At least one defeat [2mBTC]

Can we have some more players?

[buwaytress]

I know it's too much to ask for too, and every team has its blip, and I usually don't like to say things too early, or we end up Lovren-ing ourselves (he said last season we could go unbeaten haha). But this season is the time to believe. I don't see us play with any pressure anymore, other than the normal match pressure. We've found a way to normalise every game and make every Anfield match something for opponents to remember. Sorry Ole, but it's going to be a stinker for you on Sunday.

Me too, after climbing above 20th, I shot myself in the leg with a lot of missed upsets... so I'm at it again today (cept Liverpool of course). Auba's very seldom in my pick, cause I want to win 1 BTC in stlye =p

And urgh damn you Watford. But 7 guys picked 1-1, nicely done!

Deeney can you not shoot in the same spot all the time? =p

You sure about that? I heard Klopp complaining about and assumed it will be this season. Don't feel like googling to much but skimming this wiki I got that it will be played in April 2020.
