Prediction League Rules

The Prediction League - which doesn’t include cup matches - is essentially the same competition we’ve been running since August 2000. You predict the score and first scorer of each match and you get points based on your accuracy.

You get three points if you get the scoreline spot on, plus a bonus of the number of goals in that game (so an accurate prediction of 1-3 would get you three points and a bonus of four).

If you don’t get the score right but correctly guess that it will be an away win, for example, you’ll be awarded one point. You get two points for predicting the correct first Town scorer.

The overall winner of the competition, which had 580 registered entrants last season, will receive £150 in Amazon vouchers with second receiving £100 and third £50.

Last year’s competition was won by BigAlsMate, who amassed 76 points, with fivetimers second on 71 and bigsarah third with 70.
