[The Wolf In The North]

At a glance:





28 players so far this round, with 19 Wolves wins, 8 draws, and one Leicester win (Giantwolf is wearing the black hat this week). Only two players fancy resurgent Newcastle against West Ham, two go for Palace to snatch a draw against Chelsea (one of whom, Wolf In Wednesbury, is also out on his own in thinking Spurs will take a point against Man City), everyone hates Norwich, only SuziQ and Boon2 believe Brentford can hold Arsenal to 0-0, and only three players haven't chosen Roma to roll over Verona. So, in short, one of those weeks where mostly everyone will be happy, or no one will be. Will it be a heavy points week? The odd win here and there will decide it... good luck all!

Sorry guys….

 

[Contrarian]

I hate Brentford more than ever. What was the point of their consolation goal? Really, what was the point? Did Arsenal let them score just to deprive me of a maximum pointer? And the less said about Burnley suddenly turning into Barca for the day, the better. Very suspicious. Are other Mixers in the Prediction League sneaking back handers to teams to fix matches? Hey, I'm just putting these ideas out there, got to keep an open mind.

Well easy to narrow it down, @Boon2 and @geowolf were the only ones to go for a Burnley win. They both clearly know a lot more about football than me, unless your allegations have credibility!

 

[The Wolf In The North]

Geowolf is having a stormer, second week in a row. Purplepault69 is the horse of the day, however, about three lengths ahead as things stand.

 

[Boon2]

I know nothing: I even got Roma wrong.

I believe Mikel Arteta had a word with his defence as full time approached. Apparently it went along the lines of, look chaps we can't have that Contrarian fellow catching up with Frank Lincoln, so just let Brentford score in the last few seconds...

 

[SuziQ]

Predicted our game with the correct score and the only person to do so with an asterisk. Feeling a little smug about that, even if the rest of my predictions were rubbish!

 

[jrpb-3]

@jrpb-3 , you have four; I'm missing out the Wolves game unless you say otherwise!

should have kept the wolves one and lost the Man City one, would have scraped a few more points, but even then another forgettable week

I got our score totally wrong, but did get very close to the score on XG. Bonus points, surely?

And 13 people had RB Leipzig spot on at 65 minutes. Then Leipzig went mad and scored 4 more.

if the game was to predict the score at 65-70 minutes I'd have far more points than I do

Following on from his success in round 12, the Prince of the Prediction League, Purplepault69, becomes the fifth member of the exclusive Twice Weekly Winners Club. Languishing in the relegation zone last time out, the Purple One erupted this week with four correct scores, one doubled, and correct results with his other two asterisks for a total of 41 points. Leading overnight, he consolidated with a hearty Sunday, scooping points in four from six fixtures. Geowolf was unlucky, second place for the second week in a row, with two double pointed correct scores leading to 38 points. Oh When The Wolves scored points in all of Sunday's matches for 32 overall, and SuziQ hit 21 on Sunday, also finishing on 32. Huge of Sharjah continued recent good form with three scores and 31.

SmokeyGB offered a prayer to the football gods, and they promptly ignored them, but 10 points this week has some motley company as myself, Wolf In Wednesbury, Frank Lincoln and Wonder Boyo made up the rest of the bottom five - what happened, lads?

Frank's forgettable week saw Blast Tyrant cut into his lead at the top, now down to 12 points, as SGWolves slips back to third. Contrarian moves into the top 5, and Oh When The Wolves' excellent performance sees a rise to 7th place. Purplepault69 and Geowolf enter the top 20. Six of the top 12 failed to get to the 20 point mark this week. Detention for all.

You had a great week, thanks in no small part to Wolves. Loyalty pays dividends!

 

[Frank Lincoln]

A bad week for me. Extra training sessions are needed. Such results will not be tolerated...

 

[SmokeyGB]

That's it... I'm atheist.. no such thing of Footballing God's..
So this week, I'm going to pick a result out of the hat and same for scoring (upto 4 goals).. might see a few 4-4 draws

 

[purplepault69]

Wow I could say that my score is the result of hours of burning the midnight oil studying stats but in reality I think that I have a new "lucky pin" ----Thank you @TWITN

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Bloody hell I've just noticed I'm the only person not to have broken the 30 point barrier in any week. That must surely prove I'm unlucky as well as rubbish! I'm giving it everything this week, even the foreign games!

Ha, I hadn't even noticed that! It'll make your victory that much sweeter when it's your turn... you watch, when you win a week it'll be with the record highest points score now.

 

[Wolf in Wednesbury]

Shocking for 4 weeks … out the top 10 … languishing in 11th and sliding fast … remind you of anyone??

Can you change my team name to “The Cabbage Patch Kids”

 

[Boon2]

I'm now only 127 points behind Frank.
Cup and league double looking a bit unlikely.

@The Wolf In The North : Is the Chelsea vs Liverpool game the score at 90 minutes, or the score at full time (i.e. after either 90 minutes or after 120 minutes if Extra Time is played)? I'm working on the basis that it's the score at 90 minutes, but I might change my prediction if it's the final score even if 120 minutes have been played.

[The Wolf In The North]

As per @John de Wolf's hairdryer 's question, the Chelsea-Liverpool cup game is for a 90-minute score, extra time doesn't count.

@Wolf In Essex , you have no asterisks!
