Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 11
Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 11 We’ll do away with the wordy intro as you should all be au fait with the new layout of this by now. As a quick reminder – There are two versions of this article. The one below has a drop-down version. It’s fairly idiot proof – you simply click on the small arrow to the right of the team name and you get a drop-down list of all the teams. Simply click on the one you want to see and hey presto, etc. This is the published article with the comments section to crack on with. The other one is permanently live and has the ‘nicer’ grid layout. If you want to see that version you can click here. This can also be easily accessed at any time via a myriad of links on our homepage – Header link, Hot Topics link, ...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Inside The Mind Of An FPL Player Gameweek 11
Fantasy Football Inside The Mind Of An FPL Player Gameweek 11 We are nothing if not honest here at FF247 towers; we’ve all become a bit bored writing the same articles each week! Fixtures has already been scaled back to a monthly affair, as that’s about right for that one, or else it becomes too repetitive. Tips is becoming repetitive too as not a great deal is changing week to week right now. Salah has almost single-handedly rendered the Capos article redundant. Some or all of the above staple articles will continue to feature along the way but in order to keep things fresh, for both writers and readers alike, we are creating a few new features and this is the first of them. As ever it would be great to get your feedback in the comments below, this will help us to deliver content that wil...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW11
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW11 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW11. Just one draw last week and an unexpected one as Brighton and Liverpool shared the spoils at Anfield. Elsewhere there were plenty of clean sheets (5) along with a smattering of unexpected results (City v Palace the most notable) that kept this week’s results all the more interesting. So when all was said and done, how did that affect the results? It was a three-way tie for first place this week as M.Salah, Mosc and LittleRedLacazette all finished on 10pts. It all came down to who got the closest to the FGS time. M.Salah was sadly the furthest away (25 minutes out), next up it was Mosc (21 minutes) and finally just 16-minutes out was this weeks winner LittleRedLacazette. Hurra...[Read More]
Is Fantasy Football Better Than Traditional Sports Betting?
Is Fantasy Football Better Than Traditional Sports Betting? In essence, Fantasy Football is, just like sports betting, all about prediction. Are you putting money on a player to win the season’s top scorer award? Well, in Fantasy Football, you should try and have this guy on your team. However, while traditional sports betting is all about money and ROI, Fantasy Football is more versatile than that. That doesn’t mean, though, that you cannot build a gambling environment around your Fantasy League. Let’s have a look at the key benefits of Fantasy Football and why it’s been growing so quickly in popularity. You Can Be More Creative One of the biggest reasons many people prefer Fantasy Football is that it allows you to be more creative. The activity requires you to compile a team of various f...[Read More]
FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 10
Fantasy Football Live Match Chat Gameweek 10 Welcome to FPL Live Match Chat Gameweek 10 We have a bit of a strange GW on our hands here as there are a lot of games that either look very predictable in their outcome or you simply look at and go… ‘meh’. Leicester and Arsenal set us on our way on Saturday lunchtime and if we tell you that this looks like one of the more enticing games then you’ll know what is to come. If nothing else our old mate Jeff @ Sky will be cock-a-hoop to see no less than 5 games in his slot at 3pm on Saturday. Two games could be close, but ultimately also dire affairs, in Burnley v Brentord and Watford v Saints with the other three looking fairly one sided for Man City (v Palace), Liverpool (v Brighton) and Chelsea (v Newcastle). The main ente...[Read More]
The Underdogs To Bet On That Could Break The Top Six
The Underdogs To Bet On That Could Break The Top Six The Premier League is one of the most competitive leagues in the world. There are many challenges for places, particularly at the top four, as they guarantee direct qualification to the group stages of the UEFA Champions League. The “big six” teams are widely expected to seek the four available spots. These include Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur. However, owing to the financial strength of the other organisations in the league and their excellent groups, one can anticipate developments. Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are finding it difficult to keep up because they are in a transitional stage. The Gunners are getting their legs under Mikel Arteta, but Spurs have already d...[Read More]
Site FPL Team GW10
FF247 FPL Team GW10 Welcome to FF247 FPL Team GW10. Salah was a bit of a dissapointment last week. He couldn’t even contribute 50% of our points total, despite pitching in with a 48’er… Which, to cut him some slack, is a roundabout way of saying that the rest did ok too. We ended up on 97 which was 41 above the average and we saw a fairly chunky rank jump of about 180k to leave us at 268,292nd overall. Our new signing Vardy was a disappointment as he limped off early, but elsewhere we saw generous returns, including some goals and the odd assist, from Rudiger (9), TAA (10), ESR (13) and Antonio (7). Our GW9 Result… Let’s go see what was decided ahead of GW10… Our GW10 Transfer(s) You’d be forgiven for thinking we have a panel full of Jose Mourinhos here ...[Read More]
Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 10
Predicted Line-ups and FPL Team News Gameweek 10 Slight change to the format here… A few weeks back now we launched two different versions of this article – one here with a nice ‘grid’ layout and the other on the permanently linked version (see below). With it being a bit of a ‘live experiment’ we weren’t sure what to expect but having done so it seems that the ‘grid’ version in conjunction with a live comments section caused a few loading issues and was generally a bit ‘buggy’. Nothing major but enough to make us have a re-think. As such we have simply switched the two and so now if you want to see the nicely laid out version you can click here. The one below now has the drop-down version. It’s fairly idiot proof thou...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 10
Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 10 Welcome to Fantasy Football Tips Gameweek 10 Pizza Gate Fine margins, marginal gains, close but no cigar – call it what you like, Gameweek 9 showed how much of a cruel mistress FPL can be when one small decision can have large ramifications. Those who captained Salah – and not the likes of Vardy or Raphinha – then saw their points totals go up by a rate of knots into the 80s, 90s and beyond. Those who didn’t, of course, only saw large red arrows – unless they instead went for the likes of Mount or Foden, of course. As always, try not to be too downhearted when such a small decision doesn’t go your way. There are still 29 more game weeks to get those green arrows and we hopefully won’t have the same kind of Covid-re...[Read More]
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 10
Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 10 Welcome to Fantasy Football Captain Picks Gameweek 10. It’s all about… the vice! When I initially asked our writing team for their Captaincy input this week it was about 1pm on Sunday. By 6pm, I was met with a mixture of silence and incredulity. After all, Salah had just done that, to Ole and co. And he has a home game this weekend against Brighton. In all honesty, I could have just left it at that but it felt like a dereliction of duty to not at least address the issue. This will not be a long article. The fact of the matter is that we are possibly about to witness the most captained player ever. If he fails then at least we all fail together, and for once it won’t matter a jot to your rank either way. Which sort of sucks the fu...[Read More]
Who Will Win The Premier League 2021-22 Golden Boot Race?

Punters at Data88bet can also expect Son Heung-min, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, and Patrick Bamford to follow their impressive hauls of last season, putting up a strong fight for the title. Vardy and Salah are on top of the list in the early league standings, with each player scoring seven goals in eight game-weeks. Here are the top 10 EPL players that are likely to put up a strong fight in the race for the 2021/2022 Golden Boot. Mohamed Salah Mohamed Salah is the bookmakers’ favorit...[Read More]
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW10
Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW10 Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Fantasy Predictions GW10. Some incredible results in GW9, where to start? Chelsea put 7 past the hapless Canaries, Watford coming back from 2-1 down to win 2-5 at Goodison, City grabbing 4 away to Brighton. Yet all those results pale into insignificance (or at least in years to come they will) compared to what unfolded in the final game of the weekend. Manchester United 0 Liverpool 5. Wowsers. Many predicted a win, but 5-0? So when all is said and done, how did such a momentous weekend of EPL affect the scores over here? Let’s find out! It’s finally happened! After some five seasons of writing and predicting here at H&L I have finally done it; I’ve only gone and won!! As ever it was n...[Read More]
