Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 26 Welcome to Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 26 The big one is here. And as DGW’s go this one is rather large with no less than 17 games spanning 6 days, starting on Saturday and finishing up at about 10pm on Thursday. That’s about 1,530 minutes worth of football, or 25.5 hours, and every last drop of it is televised. A small word of caution here, other than the obvious which is to have a good divorce lawyer to hand, after we finish on Thursday you get just the one day off as GW27 begins on Saturday again with an 11am deadline. We won’t script out all 17 games here, the picture below tells a thousand words, other than to say that there are 4 games on Saturday, 5 on Sunday, 1 each on Monday and Tuesday and 3 each on Wednesday and Thursday...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW’s26 & 27 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW’26 & 27. When I was a lad football used to be mostly played on a Saturday afternoon. Then the Premier League came along and Sunday afternoon football became the norm. Before long they sneaked in Monday night football and whilst we all looked the other way, Friday night matches became a thing. Madness. Then along came Covid who did whatever the Pandemic equivalent of ‘Hold my beer’ is. Now its football every bloody day. Well once again it’s a Double Game Week, followed by yup, you guessed it, another Double Game Week. You know the drill; fixtures at the bottom, its a doubler, post all as one or comment on your original post for the subsequent game wee...[Read More]
How Fantasy Football Can Help in Sports Betting Many people see sports betting as part of their leisure time. It’s no surprise that some come from the fantasy football world. Telecomasia.net explains how the game can help with betting. From fantasy football to betting Previously, the large portals FanDuel and DraftKings offered their users to participate in fantasy football tournaments for money, and now they have become classic bookmakers since betting was legalized. At the same time, part of the audience of the sites remained their clients and retrained as bettors. The point is that fantasy football and sports betting have a lot in common. To do both, you need a love of sports, the ability to analyze data and make predictions. Also, there is a competitive element in these areas (in betti...[Read More]
Premier League: Manchester United and Crystal Palace, a Disappointing Match In Matchday 29 of the Premier League, Manchester United faced Crystal Palace on Wednesday night, United conceded a second consecutive scoreless draw at Crystal Palace (0-0), three days after the one against Chelsea (0-0). A game of great sadness, all the same punctuated by a few loud voices and insults between teammates! The Red Devils Did Not Widen the Gap On Leicester The Red Devils, second in the standings, did not widen the gap on Leicester, third. Rarely this season has Manchester United been so disappointing. This Wednesday night, the Red Devils failed to win at Crystal Palace, and as often, when Bruno Fernandes is tired, it’s all MU who seems without idea. Manchester United could hardly find a dangerou...[Read More]
FF247 FPL Team GW26 Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW26 A Wildcard Waltz and a Bench Boost Beckoning Anyway, part one of the plan worked! We wildcarded last week and scored 82 points – a very respectable 32 points above the weekly average and a climb to 616,720 overall. The reason we wildcarded was so that we were in a position to absolutely hammer the upcoming DGW26 with as many players with two games as possible. We go with 14 of the 15 which we’re delighted with but more on that later. The Premier League confirmed the DGW26 fixtures ONE MINUTE PAST THE GW25 deadline (yeah great, thanks etc / insert own expletive) – effectively meaning that you couldn’t technically guarantee a Wildcard/Bench Boost combo across these two weeks would work. Yeah we took a bit of a risk but ‘fortune favours’ and ...[Read More]
FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 26 Welcome to FPL Captain Picks Gameweek 26 Last week we had a bit of a DGW taster, the hors d’oeuvres to this week’s full on banquet, if you will. A dress rehersal. A practice run. You get the picture. Only it was also for real, just that the choices were much more limited, and perhaps less extravagant in their offering. As it went, three quarters of our panel went for a doubler, one without. Could it prove to be a lesson, or at least a pointer to the importance of filling up on DGW players this week? Let’s go see how they fared… = 1. Swirly – Bruno, 24 points. Our only SGW captainer claimed joint top spot with 24 points, we have put him top of the pile as he did it in one whole game less. The reality is that he was overall more pro...[Read More]
Five Players That Could Win You Your Fantasy Football League The Premier League season is reaching its climax and while the title race is seemingly over, there are still thousands of FPL contests that are set to go down to the wire in both the standard and the draft format. By now, we all know the star players that are likely to continue to lead the way, but a £4.5m addition or a waiver wire pickup could be the difference between having all the bragging rights over your fellow managers or having to settle for an agonising second-place finish in your private league. Curtis Jones – £4.4m / TSB 0.8% There have been very few positives for Liverpool to take from this campaign, but they can be encouraged by the emergence of Curtis Jones who has cemented himself as a regular in the Reds’ mi...[Read More]
Premier League teams concerned about Fantasy Football Leaks The biggest story of the week wasn’t Bale’s revival, or two wonder goals in Champions League and Europa League, but Fantasy Football frenzy, caused by one Aston Villa fan from Norway. A guy named Henning, 32-years-old, made a bot, that scanned insider accounts for changes. Moreover, it tracked players and staff teams, which resulted in real injury news leak. It all started before the game on sunday, when Jack Grealish injury was revealed because James Tomkins and Aston Villa fitness coach changed him in their fantasy teams, and Hennig bot reported that on Twitter. Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish is one of the biggest performers this year and was praised by many editors, including the ones on bookmaker-ratings.com. But they also doubte...[Read More]
FPL Tips Gameweek 26 Welcome to FPL Tips Gameweek 26 It’s double GW season and this is the biggest one of all. There will be hits galore everywhere, as well as chips being played right, left and centre. This is where the fun really happens, it’s where you can catch the leaders in your mini leagues and make big gains on your overall rank. If you had Dallas or Barnes in GW25 then congratulations, you probably had a great week. If not it’s time to shake it off and get your head in the game ready to go again! Goalkeepers Martinez (now 5.3m) is the stand out pick for a keeper. He has a double GW this week against Leeds and Sheffield United, he has another double on the horizon and he even plays in GW29: the big blank. Martinez is the highest scoring goalie in the game with 130 points and the la...[Read More]
FPL Fixtures Gameweek GW26 We’re now entering what is generally known as the business end of the season. The time for plans to be executed, Chips to be utilised, chances to be taken and if all goes well the time for big leaps in the rankings. Or if you’re like me, plans to be made, said plans to be ignored and Chips wasted! With all this in mind and following the announcement of the majority of rescheduled fixtures, allow me to try and navigate you through the next four game-weeks (and in some cases beyond). These next four game-weeks are a real mixed bag – we start with the season’s biggest double game-week and end in GW29 with just four fixtures. And just to add spice to those quirky weeks we have a tiny DGW in 27 and a possible DGW in 28 for Villa and Everton. With so many teams doublin...[Read More]

Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW24 & 25 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW24 & 25. Another large H&L article has finally come to an end with the conclusion of GW20 and thus we have four more winners. Following on from winning in GW19, former H&L contributor DMC made it two on the trot by also winning GW20. DMC finished top of the pile on 11 pts. Although the poor lad is still in a legal dispute with FPL Towers over his t-shirt (long story, don’t ask!). He was pushed all the way by OddDane, Bejo, Otieno and MDB who all scored a brilliant 10 points. Only two people guessed that Zaha would be the first goal scorer and they were Bejo and Sherlock. Each week finished with very close scores and that was the same for GW21 as Tekno won on 12...[Read More]
