Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW29

Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW29

With the quick turnaround, it’s our usual excuse and apologies — you’ll all have to wait just a little longer for the results!

After some fairly unexpected outcomes at the weekend, I’m very interested to see how that’s shaken up the scoring — and I suspect many of you are too. Standout results included Wolves grabbing a 2–0 win over the Villans, Liverpool sticking five past the Hammers, and — much to my personal annoyance (as I was in attendance) — the Toffees getting the better of the Toon. I hate to admit it, but Pickford is actually canny decent… tiny arms and all.

That was Saturday’s chaos.

Sunday, on the other hand, was oddly predictable. The classic 2–1 is often the most commonly predicted scoreline — and somehow all four Sunday fixtures finished exactly that way. If you backed 2–1 across the board, congratulations on your crystal ball.

Now we turn our attention to the midweek madness. It’s a Tuesday deadline, so get those predictions in ASAP — and, as always, good luck!

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!
