and premier league returns...

 

got arsenal at 9 to 1..... worth a flutter as i reckon home advantage is due to fans...no fans means its a much more level playing field.

Does somebody perhaps have advice on a recommended streaming app for viewing?

I have recently stopped the DStv thingy, and I’m hoping to continue. Although, I still have no idea how to stream EPL either...

I am now using an android box, if that helps. Suggestions will be appreciated:thumbs:

Interesting, given that Pep has come out saying his team are not ready for this rigorous period... :fingers crossed:

I read a german article about their first few weeks of matches. written from a analytics perspective. It indicated matches with no fans almost wipe out any advantage. I cant find the oroginal article but herewith a similar one.

its probably gonna result in some " unfairness" to some clubs and i guess in the permier league the winner has been decided so no problem there but could affect the relegation fight teams. and i spose the teams that will be in with a chance for europe

Have you seen La Ligas fixtures..it's pure joy seeing live football everyday for the next 2-3 months.. not so much for the teams who have to try and juggle a jam packed calendar though [emoji848] Edited by Gen

Don't know what the players hear in the stadium..but it's funny because there is a bit of a delay .

How was that goal not given is beyond me?

 

Are they using VAR?

Can not believe it wasnt reviewed after goal line technology failed

Considering Sheffield are chasing euro that goal could potentially have been worth millions of pounds.

 

Linesman or ref could have given it.

I do hate penalties.

 

But in the end Napoli deserved the win ....shame Gattuso has had a very difficult few weeks after his sister death... this will be very special for Napoli, Coppa Italia winners.

 

Now serious work to be done ahead of a very veru busy schedule.
