Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW8

Welcome to Harry and Lloyd’s Predictions GW8.

For many, GW7 was a low-scoring affair with very little excitement. 35 of the 48 managers who got their predictions in, failed to score more than 6pts, the other 13 managers who did manage more, all scored similarly, meaning its a packed podium at every level!

In Third we have Booty01, Terminators, Albox, sweetbluetoffee, GoalMachine, Goldilocks, Shrivathsa who all managed 7pts, they sit just behind Gear and Tekno-kun who managed 8pts and claim second. Leading the pack with a game-week winning score of 9pts we have eplnoob. farao69, theswirly and bundeena bunnies. However, eplnoob and farao69 were the only two managers to guess the FGS correctly, and because they were both 9 minutes out from the actual, we have a tie in our tiebreaker! So for once, we have joint winners!

Many congratulations to eplnoob and farao69 ! Please email us here: contact@fantasyfootball247.co.uk to claim your prize.

Overall League Table

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 t-shirt.

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!
