Preview/Prediction

October 03, 2008


Welcome to my seventh weekly Premier League predictions article. I am predicting the Premier League fixtures every week and tracking my progress as I go along using a points system that I have devised which is as follows:

 

Getting the outcome of the match wrong: 0 points

Getting the outcome of a match correct: 1 point

Getting the exact score of a match correct: 3 points

 

BONUS POINTS

 

Getting five outcomes in a set of fixtures correct: 2 points

Getting five exact scores in a set of fixtures correct: 4 points

 

I am comparing my progress to BBC Sport’s Mark Lawrenson and seeing how our prediction success compares throughout the season.

 

Last week I got five correct outcomes including two perfect scores. I get two bonus points for five correct outcomes. I scored 11 points in total.

 

Mark Lawrenson got four correct outcomes last week, which included one perfect score. This gives him six points in total.

 

After six weeks of the contest Mark Lawrenson and I are now tied on 36 points. It’s as close as it can get at the moment.

 

Who will be ahead after Week 7? Here are all my predictions.

 

Please look through my profile to find out my predictions from other weeks.

 

 

Sunderland v. Arsenal

 

Arsenal had a very bad result against Hull City. It was one of those games where it didn’t click. Losing against Hull City and Fulham will worry Arsene Wenger. However Arsenal bounced back in brilliant style against Porto in the Champions League.
