Sleeper Pick’em predictions for Matchday 4


Sponsored by Sleeper


In case you missed it, our competitive core team of Scout staff were able to use this international break to conduct a 10-team Fantasy FC draft. Let us know who you think has the strongest initial squad.

Meanwhile, Sleeper’s other new game is Pick’em – a free predictor that takes up only a few minutes of each week but offers monthly and seasonal prizes. This means you’re able to sign up at any point of the season.

The first part of Fantasy weekend preparations always involves looking at the imminent fixtures and predicting how they might go. So let’s go ahead and guess Matchday 4 via Pick’em.

If you see yourself as a bit of a top-flight Nostradamus, it’d be a good idea to download the app – available from the App Store and Play Store – and then join our Scout league.

MATCHDAY 4 PICK’EM

Sleeper Pick'em predictions for Matchday 4

Last time, the forecasts went pretty well, following the previous week’s eight points with a further seven correct outcomes. But we incorrectly thought that Arsenal and Chelsea would defeat Brighton and Hove Albion and Crystal Palace, also tipping Newcastle United v Tottenham Hotspur to share points.

This week, the Magpies are again predicted to draw, for logical reasons. Five of their last six league visits to Wolverhampton Wanderers have ended this way.

Fantasy managers are eagerly anticipating attractive back-to-back home fixtures for Liverpool, Aston Villa and Brighton, so it feels right to select victories for each. Those with Mohamed Salah, Joao Pedro and Trent Alexander-Arnold in drafts are confident. Furthermore, maybe Ollie Watkins will use this Everton clash to score his first goal of 2024/25.

Expect Brentford to be competitive and on the scoresheet at champions Manchester City, before Pep Guardiola’s side ultimately emerge with all three points.

Not only that, Eberechi Eze will inspire Palace to an overdue league win, although Southampton v Manchester United is tough to call. The Saints are still goalless and Erik ten Hag’s lot look poor. Perhaps Bruno Fernandes uses this occasion to bring a haul of Fantasy points, which underlying stats say is imminent.

Elsewhere, score draws for Fulham v West Ham United and Bournemouth v Chelsea, whilst Arsenal find a way to win the north London derby despite being without Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard.

Built like a messenger app, Sleeper launched in 2014 as a place to chat about Fantasy games. Their initial US leagues debuted in 2017 and they’ve now decided to branch into football with some exciting Premier League and La Liga contests.

Pride is taken in its design, aided by initially hiring a bunch of casual fans and first-time Fantasy players to bring out-of-the-box ideas that created a less intimidating interface for new players. And this seems to have worked, as Sleeper continues to gain popularity.

            Saw him a few years ago and his voice has gone unfortunately. He plays all his songs really slowly and it's not the same. Would have loved to have seen him at his peak!

              Saw him last month. Been seeing him for well over 40 years and while I saw some truly amazing shows I still missed out. My favorite live Dylan is from the year I was born, 1966

                  I’m talking about his entire 1966 tour, not any one given night. But history says the one you should seek out is Manchester, England May 17, 1966. Maybe the single most famous/infamous rock concert played by one act (meaning non-festival). There are a handful of single song clips on YouTube, just search Dylan 1966. Years back he released a box set that has every known recording from the tour (36 discs). Essential stuff

      Robertson= more chance of attacking points, rather than just the clean sheet. I’ve actually just transferred out TAA for Robertson, as put the spare 1 mln in midfield = meant I cud buy Palmer & Salah.

      Before GW1, people bought Everton because their defence was good last season, but their defence looks awful. They've left in 3, 4, 3 goals in only 3 games so far.

      Get them because their cheap, but their results are certainly not worth investing in.

      Playing him because it’s between him and Murillo for my 3rd defender spot.

      Personally think both Everton and Forest will get smashed, but Forest more so than Everton as Liverpool are far better than Villa.

      But, can’t see any benefit taking a 4 point hit to change to a different defender so I have to go with Mykolenko, but my expectations are low, to put it mildly!

      I’m thinking Salah & Konsa myself. Salah cud get 2 goals and Konsa cud get a clean sheet. How effective will Saka be w/o Ødegaard & Rice and strong possibility Porro only gets 2 pts. You need to hear injury news on Konsa from Emery, to make sure he’s playing, if there’s any doubt, just play PAU.

      Why don’t you go Konsa or Pau. Also Villa’s 4.0 mln def called Bogarde cud play again. I wouldn’t go with Digne myself as his position cud be taken by Maatsen. Need to listen to Emery’s injury news. With Villa’s next to games being at home against Everton & Wolves, you can’t go wrong. Failing this Dunk looks a sound choice, as Brighton’s next 2 games are at home, against Ipswich & Forest.
