So, nobody don't have faith in Arsenal anymore? Just one player in our pool backed their win against Wolves. Arsenal is so bad this season, but it's still a bit strange because their opponents isn't City or Liverpool today. Score is 0:0 in the end of first half. If nothing will change in next few round, it means that both North London teams will be without UEFA competitions next season.

Arsenal have been poor for a very long time now, I don’t think anybody wants to put their trust in them, they have lots of good players but they’re just so inconsistent.

[big_daddy]

I’m just watching the first today’s match, Burnley-Sheffield
My pick on he pool is 1:2, but I will take Burnley as a potential winner on a single bet now on live

Asian Handicap 0-0
Burnley FC (0)
@2.61

Edit: stake refunded, 0 profit, 0 loss
And no points on the pool

You can't trust them given their form right now. I had a draw down and only one person backed them to win.

No idea what just happened to City. I don't understand how they can go from destroying Liverpool to losing to Southampton. To be fair though Southampton's defence was excellent. They were throwing bodies in front of everything. Ederson needs to stay on his line though as he gave away that goal.

I had both to score on that match. Never even crossed my mind that City could be the one to screw me over. Maybe it would have been a different game if De Bruyne played from the start. He really is in a form of his life at the moment and joy to watch. Had such high hopes for that multi after I already got both to score on Newcastle game and Liverpool -1.5.

That's football isn't it? You look at the odds and you know this was a season of abberation for City. 20/1 Norwich, 9/1 Southamption, not to mention all the 20/1++ losses last season. And it's easy to believe the stats too, 70% possession and 10 shots, I've seen Liverpool do 80% with many more shots (thinking of last season draws especially), it just goes to show if you play the style that suits the opponent, you can win.

If you play City vs Pool just a few days ago, either team comes away with a big win.

Anyway, City made me lose my 4/-leg multi too (Had Real, Liverpool -1.5 and Barca on the other legs) but it was meant as a hedge on my Saints win, so I'm happy.

5 rounds to go ! Looks like tokeweed is absolutely smashing it !
@hilarious - any chance we could get a look at our leaderboard and results so far, ie, who’s in for a prize so far etc?
For us players heading for mid table mediocrity , it would be nice to still have something to play for.
Sorry , this might prove to be a bit of work as I’m not sure how you’ve recorded it ?
TIA and good luck all again tonight !

tokeweed has his grubby mitts on the trophy already, he just needs to continue at a steady pace, no shitty weeks & victory is his. I hope we do it again next season & I hope to do much, much better.

Yeah, I'd be surprised if he doesn't keep hold of his 1st place position. All the others are still to play for though. I got a vital three points last night on the Spurs game tot ake me back into 5th place. It's going to be really hard to keep hold of it though. Places 2-5 could be grabbed by a lot of people though, even some of the mid tablers if they do well and hope everyone else does shit.

You can go through them round by round and it gives you the weekly leader-board by round: https://www.superbru.com/premierleague_predictor/pool.php?p=12098541&tab=rounds#tab=rounds

Not sure if anyone has made it onto it since I last posted it. Maybe examplens with 19.5 points but I can't find the table I posted cos search is shit on here and isn't bringing anything up. I know I was on there somewhere. I'll go through it later and double check. Next time I'll just keep it updated week by week in the op so it's easy to find.

Thanks I’ll have another search too - spent about 10 mins earlier and gave up - lol.
Yep, Haven’t given up on getting something yet , never give up , but it’s amazing how quick these rounds are coming now !

I've been make my picks regularly but not usually following the leaderboard, until last night and when I saw tokeweed at the top with some relevant lead over second place... The major surprise for me though, would be LFC_Bitcoin being out of the top 10, last I remember he was topping the chart and drop just slightly below.

I'd prolly need a miracle to pop one for the weekly prizes, that's all there is to fight for me now, perhaps it's time to get crazy with my picks.

at one moment I was only on one point behind tokeweed, now I am on 8th place with -36 points. I was a little annoyed by some results after the restart so I lost the will to think before pick results.

If you think about players with the best round, you are right I have 19.5 pts in round 24, but in round 7 you @hilariousetc and LTU_btc won 20.5 points. I think that is the best result in one round.

Next time we can organise betting on the winner of this pool, this can give an extra dose of uncertainty

Today we have 3 PL matches going on

Crystal Palace is in a bad series, three defeats in a row, Chelsea plays quite well away games and looking at the mutual duels, in the last 4 has celebrated Chelsea
I'm going with a 0:2 here

Watford and Norwich, both teams have been conceding goals very easily lately, and both of them has to play an open offensive football to win this match, cause they are at the bottom of the table, my pick is 3:1, I'm giving an advantage to Watford

Arsenal is improving its form from round to round, Leicester haven’t been so shining on away games lately. Traditionally, the host is a more successful in mutual duels
2:1 is my pick

I will play this ticket as a MULTI:

Chelsea FC to win @ 1.46
Watford FC - Norwich City Asian Total Over 2.5 @2.06
Arsenal FC - Leicester City Asian Handicap Arsenal FC (0) @1.71
TOT: @5.14

we think very similarly here, I think we can maybe expect more goals on Arsenal vs Leicester game. Arsenal has a very poor defence against Leicester and Vardy who's are very dangerous.
But I think once I changed mine picks because of your prediction, and I miss it all.  In CL you are a master, much better than here in PL

What a start of matches just five minutes and Chelsea and Norwich leading by 1 goal look like tonight we are going to watch some good number of goals from these teams all over is good for tonight common guys.

Edit:  Watford giving good reply now match is 1 - 1 just 10 minutes of game.

I got lot of luck in the early group stage on predicting the CL results, I cant' wait the restart to see the remaining matches, it will be so difficult to make any prediction after the covid pause, but, I think that I have enough points to remain in the first 3 on the top, it will be a hard work for me to replay this result the next year 
Good luck with your ticket

one more goal on this match and one out of three will be checked 

[LTU_btc]

Yeah, it's impossible to reach @tokeweed. But fight for remaining place will be interesting. There is just 0.5 point between 2 and 3 places. And everyone who is in Top 10 still have decent chances to reach TOP 5.
I took very important points with two exact scores tonight and I'm getting closer to Top 5. I noticed that after quarantine, I perform significantly better than before, don't know why .
BTW, is it possible to find previous season table on Superbru somewhere. It would be interesting to compare it with current one .

[Harkorede]

I guess me picking a win for Arsenal was asking too much of them  but 1.5 each from other matches wasn't a bad one, especially a win from watford...  Let's see how it all goes tomorrow.

Lol am with you on this one. Looking at the table you might think I should have stopped participating in the pool by now since my chances of winning anything this season are like that of Arsenal with the hope of defeating Man City and winning the FA Cup finals (that's me getting the highest point in a round lol). Anyway it's still fun trying my luck also putting some hopes of MJ7.

The Crystal palace, Chelsea game was my highlight of the night as securing the 3 points was just based on luck and nothing else, the defence weren't solid as all goals scored by crystal palace should have been easily avoided. Anyway, Kurt Zouma for president...
