Gameweek 4 Roundup
Results, crowd predictions, upsets and who won the prize money
The roundup
Gameweek four was rough going for the crowd - just 34% of predictions got the result right and only 6% nailed the exact score, the toughest week of the season to call so far.
Chelsea's 2-2 draw at home to Hull was the sharpest reality check: 93% of the pool had Chelsea winning, and instead they were held to a draw by Hull.
It wasn't the only one. Liverpool were held 0-0 by Fulham after 89% of players backed a Liverpool win, Crystal Palace lost at home to Ipswich when four in five expected a home win, and Leeds beat Newcastle 4-1 when most of the pool had called a draw.
Sunderland's 0-2 defeat to Arsenal was the week's easiest read, called by 93% of the pool, while Bournemouth's 2-2 with Brentford and Tottenham's goalless draw against Everton were the only level games the crowd did see coming.
29 players made 283 predictions across the gameweek. Shola2odoi took top spot with 39 points and the £25 prize, with zubby second on 26 points for £10.
Two brutal weeks back to back - Gameweeks 4 and 5 - are exactly why the site tracks a full nine-step tiebreak chain rather than settling ties on points alone. When results keep going against the crowd, consistency across all ten games starts to matter more than any single lucky call.
