Good luck all

Arsenal Please

Not until it's complete. Also, I want to wait for the updated weather, they are apparently considering playing a lot of matches indoors, could turn out to be a very stupid tournament if things go wrong. Should've been postponed long ago. The only thing that I'm not afraid of putting out there is Jessica Pegula to beat Taylor Townsend at 1.58 with Pinnacle, Pegula is just better in every single regard currently.

Last time we had 123 players and it last 8 weeks, hopefully we will get another two competitions in by the end of the season. 
Meanwhile the current consolation competition will carry on as normal next week.
 
Many thanks, BH.

Well done to Gazza 
More to follow......
Just to say the next main comp will start the first weekend after Christmas.

Can't believe the stupid folk over at the Champions League have organised a full card of matches on the same day as Wigan v West Brom. 
You may laugh but West Brom are 10 games undefeated and quite frankly I'd take them 'draw no bet' against Barca at the moment. Obviously if Messi wasn't playing and my sister had the other controller.
This game will probably be more entertaining than most of the games in the CL tonight as there is most definitely something to play for. Wigan's last 7 games have been goalfests - with all 7 over 2.5 goals (and 3 of them over 3.5). Unfortunately for them they've all been against.  They face a West Brom side who have also been having a few goalfests, however most of those goals have came in the 'for' category. They've scored no less than 25 goals in 10 matches. Some fairly impressive romps along the way. So if stats are anything to go by, which they are, then tonight's match should see plenty of goals and the over 2.5 odds of 1.87 seems really quite generous from the bookies. I'm on, I'm really on, in fact I'm doubling down on this one. Both Teams To Score is also quite tasty at 1.85 and as much I believe it will come in there is a small part of me that thinks it could potentially be 0-3. Roll on the 1-1 now that I've said that.
Over 2.5 @ 1.87 - BET OF THE DAY
Predicted score: Wigan 1 - 3 West Brom 

Olympiacos to beat Zvezda @1.50 offered by bet 365 is the best home win of the evening in my eyes.
Someone here wrote that they play for nothing. Actually Nothing is more far away from the truth than this statement. They play for the third spot, which gives the entrance ticket to the last 32 of the Europa League.
Olympiacos at home is reliable for centuries, playing against bigger teams than Zvezda.
10/10 home win.

Spurs are favourites to beat Man U at Old Trafford!  Never thought i'd see the day.  It would certainly be ironic if a Mourinho led spurs won this game, leading to OGS being sacked and replaced by Poch!

Well, that was certainly unexpected. Tomorrow, I'm backing Roger Federer (-4) to beat Matteo Berrettini at 1.93 with Pinnacle, same reasoning as for Djokovic-Berrettini. Federer now needs to win quite desperately - and Berrettini doesn't seem to be in the right form to challenge him.

Alexander Zverev to beat Rafa Nadal at 2.85 with Unibet
I think Rafa has gotten a bit overrated in this match. It's not all too unlikely that he will get beaten by Sascha in two.

Millwall left it a bit late lol  

Thank you! Good thing that was the only error in the post...  :).

Eintracht Frankfurt @ 7,50
Derby @ 2,00
Inter Milan @ 2,15
20 point treble

I'm backing Bournemouth to stun Man Utd in the early kickoff. Guess the visiting side won't sit back like they did against Liverpool, and will even try to get the upper hand to continue on their mini unbeaten run and even aim for a convincing win to climb the table, and this might play in the hands of the hosts. Bournemouth have some quality players and are now savvy enough in the PL not to be fazed by the visiting team's stature. Would think Howe is a better manager than Ole and that could show on the pitch today.

Southampton vs Leicester
Friday night football is back for the Premier League with Southampton playing Leicester in this 8pm BST kick-off at St Mary's Stadium. These two sides have had contrasting starts to their league campaigns with the home side toiling at the wrong end of the table and the visitors are flying high up the top end of the division. Will the result favour the form book or will we see a surprise?
Southampton narrowly avoided relegation last season but with the appointment of Ralph Hasenhuttl it was hoped that the Saints could push on up the table this season. Unfortunately, the club is currently sitting in 17th place and only outside the relegation zone on goal difference. Four league games without a win has left the fans becoming concerned but the 1-1 draw versus Wolves in their last match gave hope that they might have turned a corner. What is more worrying is the fact that this poor form has continued from last season with the club only managing 2 of their last 14 league games with the worst home record in the division this season having failed to keep a clean sheet at home. However, this is a Southampton side that have scored in a club record 18 consecutive home games. 
Leicester are a completely opposing tale. Brendan Rodgers has transformed this Foxes team into a free-flowing attacking side that are making a serious push for a top four finish this season. 5 wins from their last 7 league games has pushed the team up to 3rd in the table. If Leicester win here then it'll be the first time since 1930 that they'd have won 6 of their first 10 matches in the top flight. Disconcertingly, the club hasn't kept a clean sheet in their last 12 away league games. It could also be worth backing Jamie Vardy to score any time because he's bagged 15 goals since Rodgers took over in March.
These two sides played each other three times last season with the away side winning both league games with Leicester winning the EFL Cup clash on penalties. St Mary's Stadium is a place Leicester love scoring goals having hit six here in their last two visits. I can see goals being scored again in this game. I'd have to back Leicester to sneak a 2-1 win if I was pushed on a correct score.
