Don't forget there's a game on tonight between Palace and Newcastle. Many people seem to miss these sneaky Friday night games and 21 users still need to make their picks for it. It's not a game I'll be watching either way. Got a draw written all over it for me. Chelsea/Spurs is the game to watch for me this week. I might go with the Arsenal/Wolves match as well.

I feel like all 3 of those games could end up as tight draws, or one-sided. I picked with some hesitation a Newcastle slight upset on betting, Palace are the type of team who know how to snatch a win (Zaha's always good for a goal) but Toon Army need points on the road...

Might be watching whatever I can get this weekend. Spurs/Wolves seems like a probable big win. Hope to get some good points if I pick these games well.

Yeah, I've gone for a couple of draws on them. Annoyingly I had 0-0 on last nights game and then Newcastle went and scored at 88 minutes then another two minutes later. 0-0 are always scores you can get a decent lead on points from as it's by far the least picked score, though four others did go for it as well on that game.

Predictions submitted, I only just remembered, there’s a game tonight too so I nearly messed up there Cheesy
Aiming for that yellow hat this weekend, if everybody could have an awful week that’d be great Wink

Three people missed it in the end. Only six people backed the away win so not a bad loss overall.

I just submitted my picks as well, I initially had Newcastle to win 0 - 1, but I'm changing my mind and I've going with the bookies with 2 - 1 Crystal Palace to win, despite Newcastle having Wlison and Jonjo Shelvy ...

I changed my mind a few times too, saw buwaytress predictions on Newcastle in another thread, and I thought it was a really good bet. And then I went for a more conservative draw after reading all the stuff from other analysts, and then finally switched like you to 2-1 which also was what the bookies seemed to think were the most likely outcome.

Guess I should do less research and go with my first instinct!

Sometimes you change them and they come in and sometimes your original choice does, but I tend to stick to my guns unless there's line-up changes.
