Hi All,
Firstly I would like to thank all that participated in the #EPL-ScoreChallenge AND #HIVE-FPL.
The opening gameweek was very entertaining, the London derby at Craven Cottage set the tone, goal thriller at Anfield and Wolves and Chelsea left off from last season, BAU.
Special thanks to 
There is many more chances to win a weekly prize in this challenge. Follow the Football Community for my match review post for that game week, so you can have a chance to predict the match outcome. Look out for a post titled '#EPL-ScoreChallenge # 9 - Gameweek 2' (we will be posted soon).
This year we have 12 (including me) that are participating in this season #HIVE-FPL contest.
After the first gameweek, the HIVE mini league is fairly tight on top of the table. LFCNOCXI is leading by ONLY 6 points from 2nd place Tezos FC closely followed by Boom XhakaLacaSaka.
Vardy is being Jamie Vardy, starting where he left off from last season. Banging in 2 goals and receiving 3 bonus points as Leicester City outclassed promoted team, West Bromwich Albion. Vardy scored a total of 13 points to FPL managers.
Few FPL managers in our mini league had Jamie Vardy in their team, awesome choice for the striker position. We can expect his value to only rise as Leicester City have a decent run of fixtures till Christmas besides Manchester City in gameweek 3.
Most FPL managers had Mohammad Salah as captian. Liverpool and Leeds had a thriller @ Anfield. Liverpool just edge out Leeds, Salah scored a crucial penalty to hand all 3 points to the REDs. Leeds play a similar style football as Liverpool, high press with high tempo. Leeds is a team I will want watch throughout the season. Salah scored 2 penalties and a thunder bolt in open play to secure 20 points for FPL managers.
There were a few more midfielders that scored decent amount of points in this gameweek; Hendrick (Newcastle), Willian (Arsenal) and Jorginho (Chelsea)
Two defenders that scored the highest points in defense for this gameweek; Saïss (Wolverhampton Wanderers) and Gabriel (Arsenal). Both players scored a goal and helped their respective teams to keep a clean sheet (4 points) + 3 bonus points, a total of 15 points!
There were a few more midfielders that scored decent amount of points in this gameweek; James (Chelsea), Castagne (Leicester City) and Digne (Everton)
Guaita from Crystal Palace scored the most FPL points between the sticks. He had a blinder, two outstanding saves off the line. Crystal Palace edged out the Saints in a tight game. Crystal Palace kept a clean sheet (4 points) + 1 point for the amount of saves and 3 bonus points.
Not: GK position is normally a position that can make and break an FPL team as you can get some decent points.
Manchester City, Manchester United and Burnley have not played in gameweek 1. So I am assuming some FPL managers will transfer in some Manchester players to bolster their attacking option.
Keep in mind you ONLY get one free transfer and transfers after that will cost you 4 points.
The season is still young and a few changes to your FPL team can make a real difference.
Also can FPL managers; Zion fc, badboy fc and Tezos FC comment on this post so I can know your HIVE name.
