Harry and Lloyd’s FPL Predictions Gameweek1

Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s FPL Predictions Gameweek 1.

We are open for business. The new season gets under way in the best way possible, under the lights of Anfield with Liverpool welcoming Bournemouth on Friday at 8pm.

There has been a lot of change over the summer with the FF247 site, managers swapping clubs, players coming and going but one thing that has not changed is the Harry & Lloyd office! It is still myself, Rosco and James hosting the prediction competition and we are looking forward to having you all back for another year.

We had a lot of fun last year and had plenty of winners so hope to see old and new names fighting it out for top spot.

I do want to just make you all aware though that the weekly prize has changed from a t-shirt to a FF247 branded pen. Just in case anyone is wondering when a smaller package arrives through the door.

THIS WEEK’S COMPETITION… scoring couldn’t be much simpler:

• Correct Score —> 3 points;
• Correct Result —> 1 point; and
• Correct First Goalscorer of the Gameweek —> 5 points.

To clarify, this is who you think will score the first goal of the entire Gameweek, not just in any given match that you choose to pick yourself!

Points above are awarded on an ‘either / or’ basis, so you’ll either score 3 points for a Correct Score or just 1 point for a Correct Result, and these are never added together for a 4-point score.

Tie-Breaker: in the event of 2+ entrants being tied as winners for the Gameweek, the overall winner of the weekly prize will be decided by a tie-breaker. In order to do this, we ask that you also post your prediction for the time at which the first goal of the Gameweek will be scored. Nearest the pin wins!

The Rules… 1 entry per person and all entries must be submitted prior to the first match of the Gameweek. Once all the matches have been played, we’ll calculate the scores, and the winner(s) will be announced in the following Gameweek’s competition article: each winner will walk away with an FF247-branded prize..

So, to recap, all that you need to do to play is:

• copy & paste the fixtures from below and pop your score prediction on each;
• tell us who you think will be the First Goalscorer of the Gameweek; and
• follow it with your guess for the time of this first goal (to give yourself a fighting chance in a tie-breaker situation).

Here are the fixtures; best of luck to you all!

GW1 Deadline: Friday at 8pm

Liverpool v Bournemouth
Villa v Newcastle
Brighton v Fulham
Sunderland v West Ham
Spurs v Burnley
Wolves v Man City
Chelsea v Palace
Forest v Brentford
Man Utd v Arsenal
Leeds v Everton

PLEASE also provide your FGS guess (and the minute of this first goal straight after the player’s name).
