For next season, can we consider giving points for correctly predicting the Goal Difference?

Say, I predict Juve vs Milan to end 1-3.

A. If the match ends 1-3, I get 3 points.
B. If it ends 0-2 or 2-4 or of a similar scoreline with the same goal difference of -2, I get 2 points.
C. If it ends just in a Milan win of any other scoreline with a different GD, I get 1 point.

That is a good idea! If the mod is willing, please implement it next season

I have no problem with it.

If most people including David think that it's a good idea then, providing I am still Mod, I can add that next season.

Cool.. Too many times I've got the GD right, and ended up thinking I was unlucky not to get more points. All said and done, the idea is to predict what we think the difference in quality between two sides is, in a particular gameweek. GD will capture that to a large extent.

The Coppa Italia semi-final first leg games are on Tuesday and Wednesday, sorry for the late post.

@dhorasoo You posted twice in the last round, I used the latest post as both were before kickoff of the first match, the other I deleted.

You get 1 point for picking the winner of the game, and 1 extra point if you get the score correct.

So for the Juve game you will get 2 points.

@johnnyys You posted twice in the current Coppa thread, both were exactly the same. I deleted one.

@Nikfes Welcome to the SAPL. Please check out the standard way to post predictions and use that method in the future ;) Honestly, it will be quicker for you, and easier for me :)

The decision has been made to bring back prizes to the SAPL.
With permission from David and MAJOR thanks to Diavolo_7 we have come up with the prize of a T-Shirt for the first 3 place getters.

Obviously the 2nd and 3rd place wont have the "Champion" ribbon at the bottom, but the rest will be the same. The winners can select the colour and size they want.

Happy predicting!!

Of course you are :D

You can leave the score out for Inter v Milan if you don't want to jinx it. Obviously you won't get any points for that game.

PS: I moved your above post from the scores thread.

Hey guys I wanted to ask if any of you actually analyze the possible results not just based on team names? I quite like betting, but never went to guess the score and many of you get the score correctly kinda frequently. So I'd like to follow some of yours predictions :)

You have to look at more than that in my opinion. I do look at team names, but also at their current streak, the current position, how many goals they scored/had against them when they played home/away and more. Nontheless it's always a gamble. :)

Dear Mr. ulladullaul,

I fixed the prediction result of Inter & Bologna to 2-2.

Bless You.
