So after some exciting Carling Cup action in midweek, we are in for another exciting Premiership weekend.
Here are my predictions for this week’s game
Manchester City 1-0 Newcastle
Chelsea 3-1 Watford
Everton 1-0 Aston Villa
Middlesbrough 0-2 West Ham
Portsmouth 2-1 Fulham
Sheffield United 1-2 Bolton
Wigan 1-0 Charlton
Blackburn 1-2 Manchester United
Reading 0-2 Tottenham
Arsenal 1-1 Liverpool
There are lots of sports blogs on the net now ( wordpress, blogger plus the guys with their own domains). Most of the blogs do give their opinion on the soccer matches of the weekend and I have just thought of a friendly competition between all of em. We’ll have the weekend games to predict and all you need to do, is enter the scoreline you think is most likely to happen. Games which take place only on Saturday, Sunday and Monday in the UK will be considered ( GMT)
For example Arsenal vs Manchester United.
Arsenal 1-1 Manchester United or Arsenal 2-0 Manchester United.
The points system is as follows:
One point for getting the result of the game right.
Two points for predicting the number of goals scored by each team.
So if you predict 2-0 to Arsenal and it does end that way, then you get 2+2 + 1 =5 points. 5 is therefore the maximum you can get for each game.
I’ll calculate the scoring each week, and put up an overall leaderboard too. To kickstart it off here is the list for this weekend’s games. Bear in mind that predictions should be made atleast one hour before the kickoff of the first game on Saturday.
Cheers and do let me know if you have any suggestions
This weekend’s games:
