Barry and Paul’s World Cup Predictions Game 2
Welcome to Barry and Paul’s World Cup Predictions Game 2. We know, we know, Game 1 hasn’t ended yet but it’s time for your Game 2 predictions already. We can’t even tell you the results of your Game 1 ones yet, such is the nature of the World Cup format, as one GW runs into another in quick succession. Trust us though, we have this in hand. Your GW1 results will be collated with your (yet predicted) GW2 & 3 ones and there will be a league table up prior to the knockout stages. Admin aside, it’s time to play again so get predicting for Game 2 please. The rules are as follows….
Below you will find the fixtures of the 2nd set of 16 group games. Cut and paste the fixtures into the comments, add your predictions and tell us who you think will be the top scorer (as in player) in those fixtures. Prior to the second group matches we’ll have a new article, we’ll do the same again and so on. At the culmination of the Group stages, prior to the last Round of 16, we’ll post a league table as well as the following rounds fixtures.
Points scoring:
Correct Score = 3pts
Correct Result = 1pts
Top Scorer = 5pts
The rules are few; 1 entry per person, and all entries must be submitted prior to the first game of the group stages. Kick-off this week comes on Tuesday at 7pm.
So just to recap all you need to do is copy and paste the fixtures below, pop your score prediction on each and then tell us who you think will be the top GOAL (not points!) scorer for those fixtures. Oh and if you say 1-0, you mean 1-0 to the home team. Not either team. Capiche?
Here are the fixtures, best of luck to you all!
