Football Prediction League! Take part of it too! -
10 September 2011, at 14:23


I'm going to run a Football Prediction League this season to see if it can have succes here. I know we enough football fans around here :) It will mainly be Champions League matches, but later on, I will also use interesting matches from the Europe League.

If somebody's favorite team isn't in the Champions League, but in the European League, write it in this topic and I will consider letting taking part of it as well :)

Rules
Ok, the rules are that you just have to predict all the matches that I enter. Predicting the exact score is 5 points, predicting the right outcome (who wins or a draw) is 3 points and if both aren't right then you can still win 1 point if you have one of the 2 scores predicted. F.e. you predicted 2-1, but it was 0-1, then you will get 1 point. Every round I pick 1 topmatch (which will be visible in bold), with what you can earn double amount of points!

You can enter your predictions until the matches start!
(If you've missed the Tuesdaymatches, you can still participate with the Wednesdaymatches f.e. and if you have missed this round, you can still enter this league for all the rounds after)




Round 1

Olympiakos Piraeus - Olympique Marseille (Tue, 20.45 CET)
Viktoria Plzen - BATE Borisov (Tue, 20.45 CET)
FC Barcelona - AC Milan (Tue, 20.45 CET)
Borussia Dortmund - Arsenal FC (Tue, 20.45 CET)
Chelsea FC - Bayer Leverkusen (Tue, 20.45 CET)
RC Genk - Valencia (Tue, 20.45 CET)
FC Porto - Shakhtar Donetsk (Tue, 20.45 CET)
Apoel Nicosia - Zenit Sint-Petersburg (Tue, 20.45 CET)

Dinamo Zagreb - Real Madrid (Wed, 20.45 CET)
SL Benfica - Manchester United (Wed, 20.45 CET)
Manchester City - SSC Napoli (Wed, 20.45 CET)
Villarreal - Bayern München (Wed, 20.45 CET)
Lille OSC - CSKA Moskou (Wed, 20.45 CET)
FC Basel - Otelul Galati (Wed, 20.45 CET)
AFC Ajax - Olympique Lyon (Wed, 20.45 CET)
FC Internazionale - Trabzonspor (Wed, 20.45 CET)

Happy predicting! :D

Ofcourse no problem with doing the way you did, but why not putting at least a 1-0 or 0-0 at the matches. Even that might give you some extra points ;)

No, I pick the bonus game and it's the same game for everybody. The fact you didn't highlight it, doesn't change anything. Else it's easy to pick an easy predictable match ;)
