Premier League Predictor League: Stoke vs. Liverpool, Brittania Stadium

During the Rafa-years it was often difficult to predict what a starting line up would be for any given match. Under Hodgson if anything the squad seems a little thinner than ever, while the results have been far from predictable at the start of this season.

With that in mind, for each Liverpool game for the remainder of the season we will be setting up a prediction league - anyone can play, Liverpool fan or not. Other writers, fans of other teams, can feel free to set up a similar system for their own team and go head to head on average scores with each teams' fans come the end of the season!

Liverpool starting eleven: one point for each correctly guessed player starting the match. Positions do not matter; i.e. if you pick Gerrard as a central midfielder and he starts behind Torres instead, you still get the point.

Bonus point: two point for correctly guessing all SEVEN substitutes!

Correct score: five points for getting the score exactly right, two points for getting the winning team right or correctly predicting a draw.

First scorer: two points for predicting Liverpool's first scorer of the game, regardless of whether Liverpool or the opposition score the first goal of the game.

Maximum 20 points possible per game.
