LMS Season 1 Gameweek 5 Preview

We are now down to the last 26 players!

GW5 is about to start shortly and at the time of writing all votes are in and this is how it stands….

Glenn Powell, Emmanuel Verwaest, Andrew Hunter, Paul Ridgewell, Steve Parsons, Trevor Wilmot, Wayne Rickwood, John Evans, Ben Crocker and Jonathan Spoors have all picked Spurs who are at home to Sheffield United...

Victory would give Spurs 13 points from five games and signal their best start to a league campaign since 1965-66. The Blades have only won five of their 43 away league matches against Spurs, most recently by 1-0 at White Hart Lane in November 1991.

Melvyn Hayden, Tom Bracey, Jack Wilmot, Bradley Redford, Claire Ashton, Ross Jefferies, and Tony Pound have all picked Fulham who are at home to Luton…

Fulham beat Luton 7-0 in the Championship when the teams last met in May 2022. The Hatters are yet to score in the first half of a Premier League game!

Allan Woodman, Stan Curtis and Greg Wilmot have all picked Liverpool who are away to Wolves…

Wolves have lost 12 of the past 13 Premier League meetings, with the exception being a 3-0 victory at Molineux in February last season. Liverpool are unbeaten in 15 Premier League matches since a 4-1 defeat by Manchester City on 1 April.

Dom Rekowski, Shane Lewis and Paul Patel have all backed Arsenal who are away to Everton..

Everton can equal their longest home league winning streak versus the Gunners of four matches from 1910 to 1913. Arsenal's only victory in their past seven visits to Goodison Park was by 5-2 in October 2017.

Danny Jennings and Kash Hussain have backed Newcastle who are at home to Brentford..

The Bees' only away victory against the Magpies was by 5-2 in the second tier on 1 September 1934. Newcastle were the only team to win both Premier League fixtures against Brentford last season: 5-1 at home and 2-1 away.

Sadie Wilmot has backed Nottingham Forest who are at home to Burnley…

Nottingham Forest and Burnley last met in the top flight in the 1970-71 campaign and both matches were won by the home team. Forest's only win in their last 10 matches against Burnley in all competitions was a 2-0 home victory in the second tier in December 2012.

WHO WILL BE THE LAST MAN STANDING!

LMS Season 1 GW5 Fixtures

GW4 ended with 8 players going out after a Chelsea loss and Brentford only managing a point at home to Bournemouth..

GW5 is now live! However because of the international break it doesn't start until September the 16th. The cut of for selections is at 12 Noon on the 16th. Plenty of time to get your selections in and remember it will allow you to change right up until the cut off point. So best tactic would be, get something in early and then you can always change your mind, if for example your team picks up injuries during the break and you want to change your mind. Good luck!

LMS Season 1 Gameweek 4 Preview

We are now down to the last 34 players!

GW4 is about to start shortly and at the time of writing this is how it stands….

Melvyn Hayden, Dom Rekowski, Jon Evans, Paul Ridgewell, Glenn Powell, Tom Bracey, Stan Curtis, Claire Ashton, Ross Jefferies, Wayne Rickwood, Danny Jennings, Jonathan Spoors, Steve Parsons, Andrew Hunter and Greg Wilmot have all gone with Man City who are at home to Fulham. A victory for Manchester City would see them tie their own record for the most consecutive wins in English football against an opponent (15), which they currently hold versus Watford. Fulham are without a win in 20 matches versus City since a 3-1 victory at the Etihad Stadium in April 2009.

Emmanuel Verwaest, Allan Woodman, Ben Crocker, Trevor Wilmot, Shane Lewis and Tony Pound have all gone with West Ham who are away to Luton. This is the first meeting between these sides since March 1994 when Luton won a FA Cup quarter-final replay 3-2 at Kenilworth Road. The Hammers have gone four matches without a win against Luton since beating them in January 1992, in what was the Hatters' last season in the top-flight.

Charlotte Seymour, Anthony Hayes, Dan Ashton, Sam Keene and Andrew Ridgewell have all gone with Brentford who are at home to Bournemouth. The Cherries' only win in their last seven matches against Brentford in all competitions was a 1-0 victory in the first leg of the Championship play-off semi-finals in May 2021. Brentford won the second leg 3-1 to book their place at Wembley.

Jack Wilmot, Kashif Hussain, Sadie Wilmot, and Paul Patel have all gone with Spurs who are away to Burnley. The Clarets have won just three of their 16 Premier League matches against Tottenham, all of which have come at Turf Moor. Spurs have dropped points in three of their last four league visits to Burnley (W1, D1, L2).

Adrian Pound, Steve Wright and Bob Van Der Meulen have all gone with Chelsea who are at home to Forest. Chelsea are unbeaten in their last nine meetings with Nottingham Forest in all competitions since a 2-0 loss in January 1997. Forest's only win in their last 14 away games against Chelsea was a 2-0 victory in January 1995.
