@Harko yeah actually not so surprising to see so many 3-0 predictions for Citeh -- 13 of you put in that score! I feel dumb for picking 3-1 and actually bet on a 4-0 exact score so missed out on both. Fair to Fulham, if not for that 13-minute period, they may very well have held on for the draw.

@leea @hilarious you're both doing well early in the past 2/3 rounds now! And hilarious currently looking pretty at 1-1 on the Saints pick. Edit, literally Trossard scores as I typed this!

Thanks to Man City, I grab the full 3 points from this fixture, however there were a lot of users with the exact predictions as well.

I just need to maintain this momentum to stand a chance in the pool

I too had an exact score and thanks to City but as expected things are going against me again again. I had Southampton to win but they are now 1 goal behind which means either Brighton are going to win or the worse will be a draw for Brighton.

I wonder how tomahawk9 keeps those consistency?

You jinxed me and hilarious as we are now still tied but in 3rd/4th place hehe. Anyway, I was killed by putting a Spurs score even though Arsenal were the favorites at home. Do not want to talk too much about the game,,, we had so many Kane near chances towards the end.

And yes, I would like to know how on earth tomahawk keeps his spot!!

So, when United can't get a penalty, then an opposing team scores an own goal
Fair play to them though, they were better throughout the game.

Even as a Liverpool fan I cheered for their win, they have no chance for the title and we have to surpass West Ham in our pursuit of top4. I really hope we win today, I don't care about performance at all at this point anymore. Just PLEASE give me the 3 points.

They seem to play badly in a lot of games but still get the win they need. I hate them, they ruined my childhood

Surely we’ll start winning in the league soon. Fabinho in midfield makes us a much better team, all we can do is hope.

Luck, and in this season we (Liverpool) are out of it. I remember in the last season we have several matches where we were able to win just by luck. This does not discredit the overall performance by the players though. I needed some of those lucks in this season too but unfortunately from halfway of the season we lost our track.

Who dare to pick a win tonight?

Same here
That red Ferguson's face shouting at everybody really carved itself into my memory, they were truly a force back then.
Even when we came close there was always a Wes Brown header or some shit like that. For example, remember Federico Macheda in 08-09 season? Shit, so many traumas.

0 - 1 win last night. I was not sure that we were going to win but still I had a 1 - 2 just to support my boys.

Honestly speaking we are not improving. Poor attack, sloppy defense and not much control in the mid field. This is not typical Liverpool.

By the way, I am back to top 10 again but very close to kick out again.

[hilariousetc]

Anyone know why there's only four games this round? Are they rescheduled ones that they're squeezing in? Next round doesn't seem to be on until 3rd of April either. International break or something? These four games are tough ones for me. Can't pick a winner at all and are all looking like potential draws for me. Might actually back them all as stalemates since there's only four. At least one has to come in  .

Didn't watch it but did back the win even though a draw was tempting. Things would have been looking pretty bad for Liverpool had they not got the full three points. Arsenal away for them next round which won't be easy given they're not playing too bad recently.

FA cup games are played this weekend and that is why we are a bit short on games. I am really screwed with my Fantasy team was expecting to field solid 7 or 8 players and then Son and Sake get knocks. 2 of my main candidates for points in this small game week.

And then we have that boring National teams break, should be world cup qualifier games I believe.

I had a 1 - 1 draw but it was hard for me to settle with a draw pick so few hours before the match starts I went with 1 - 2 for Liverpool. I am glad I changed my mind.

This could be the reason. I was also wondering WTF is going on lol.

Maybe we will not count this round for group winner? It's just 4 matches after-all.

where do you play fantasy football for Premier league?
yeah, there is only four matches, and it will probably be a list of winners in this round, there is a small probability for one to be different from the others

I am getting closer to top 24 in the pool, which is great after bottom start

where do you play fantasy football for Premier league?

On official page, https://fantasy.premierleague.com

There is more than 8 million users playing this season. You are from my local board so if you are interested next season contact me on PM and I will include you into our private league. You have to pay 100kn, there is more than 30 of us playing and we split all the money on rewards for first 5 people.

Next round on Superbru has only 4 games. What are the rules in a situation like this - does this round's yellow cap still get the freebet from Sportsbet?

I guess we should - some rounds this season had 15 games so it's all leveling out. Superbru has 38 rounds - same as the league.

I am having a feeling that there will be many users with the same high score and having a round with 4 games does not feel like a round at all. It would be an easy money if sportsbet decides to reward the round winners.

I don't see any reasons why winner of this round shouldn't get freebet. As you said, there is 38 rounds on Superbru including this one, so I think it would be unfair if winner of this round wouldn't prize.
It's very likely that multiple users will collect same number of points. But I think only one of them will get yellow cap on Superbru.

Well that's up to Sportsbet if they want to issue it or not but it's still a round regardless of how many games there is. Some there's been less than ten and one round was pretty much a double so it averages out.

As Trofo said the Premier League have their official one but lots of other places have them including Superbru: https://www.superbru.com/premier_league_odds_fantasy/join_tournament.php

I can never be bothered with fantasy teams though. Too much work to keep on top of haha.

[leea-1334]

I also just realized now there are only 4 games and in fact it seems to include 1 game that I already had a pick from before so I guess they moved that from a previous week to pad this week with an extra one.

Imagine if you got perfect you would only have 12 points from this whole week:)

[hilariousetc]

Don't forget about the game tonight. 21 players have still yet to make their pick for it but it seems a handful of people have given up already.

They're tricky games this round so I'd be surprised if people got more than two scores or even outcomes right. I'm still debating whether to go for all draws for every match. Most of the strongest teams are playing away and I definitely don't trust Spurs right now especially after losing to Arsenal and the stuffing they got in the Champion's League.

i am with Fulham tonight on my bet, but still thinking about what to put in the pool
they are in good form lately, and seems as a right moment to leave relegation zone with a bang against Leeds

regarding others, agree for Spurs, and would play draw on London West Ham - Arsenal derby
