Off Topic World Cup 2018 Prediction League

[samhardy]

To run alongside the Fantasy League for the World Cup this is a predict the score competition to see who comes out on top against the rest of vibe.

You will get 3 points for a correct score and 1 point for a correct outcome. When we get to the knockout phase these points will be doubled then trebled for the final.

Obviously this is just a bit of fun but no editing your predictions after a game has taken place (I will be able to see) otherwise you'll be disqualified.

First round of group games:

Russia v Saudi Arabia
Egypt v Uruguay
Morocco v Iran
Portugal v Spain
France v Australia
Argentina v Iceland
Peru v Denmark
Croatia v Nigeria
Costa Rica v Serbia
Germany v Mexico
Brazil v Switzerland
Sweden v South Korea
Belgium v Panama
Tunisia v England
Colombia v Japan
Poland v Senegal

All predictions for this round to be in by the start of the opening game which is Thursday 4PM BST

Predictions closed now so this is how it will work.

1 point for correct outcome

3 points for correct score

These will be doubled for the knockout rounds (90 minutes) and trebled for the final (also 90 minutes)

The fixtures for round 2 group games will go up on the weekend otherwise you'd only have a few hours to predict them as R1/2 overlap on the same day.

[samhardy]

Current Standings (halfway through first round of matches)

1) @Paul186 - 8

I'm well happy with that! The only Viber to suggest the Mexico win

[samhardy]

Having a fucking nightmare here. Going to have to pull my finger out if I want that fantasy/prediction league double this summer

[BatiGoal]

Ffs there's too little making sense this WC. Talking of BettyG.. I'll have her do the predictions for round 2.

[Ashez]

Looking at the ones I've got left I'm not that confident, surely Mexico can't be the only one I get right!
