Gameweek 2 Roundup

The roundup

Gameweek two swung the other way from the opener - the crowd got close to half of it right for the first time, with 49% of predictions landing on the correct result, though exact scores stayed stubbornly rare at 10%.

The upset that stood out was Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest. 93% of the pool had Liverpool winning outright, the most one-sided pick of the week that didn't come off, and Forest held on for a point that most players never saw coming.

Elsewhere the shocks were smaller but just as frequent - Hull beat Coventry away, Everton were held by Bournemouth, Newcastle won at Tottenham, and Sunderland edged out Fulham - four results in a row that went against what most players had called.

Crystal Palace's 1-4 defeat to Manchester City was the week's easiest read, called correctly by 96% of the pool, closely followed by Manchester United's 5-2 win over Ipswich at the same figure.

27 players made 266 predictions. Shola2odoi topped the gameweek with 35 points for the £25 prize, with Ibezzt second on 32 points for £10.

A tighter week all round, and a reminder that the crowd doesn't need to get every game right to still come out ahead - just enough of the close calls.
