    Group E predictions game.

    Right, here goes for anybody who is interested. Here are the rules. For each game in Group E you must predict the correct result (exact score predictions) by posting it on this thread before the game starts.

    Points are awarded as follows :

    • 3 points for a correct result (you correctly predicted a win, draw or loss).
    • 1 point for correctly predicting the number of goals each team scored.



    Examples: You predict Ireland to beat Sweden 1-0.

    • If the final score is 1-0 to Ireland, you get everything correct and get (the maximum score of) 5 points: 3 for the correct result, 1 point for correctly predicting how many goals Ireland would score, and another 1 point for correctly predicting how many goals Sweden would score.
    • If the final score is 2-0 to Ireland, you get 4 points: 3 for the correct result, and 1 point for correctly predicting how many goals Sweden would score.
    • If the final score is 2-1 to Ireland, you get 3 points: 3 for the correct result.
    • If the final score is 0-0, you get 1 point: 0 points for the result itself, but 1 point for correctly predicting how many goals Sweden would score.
    • If the final score is 2-1 Sweden, you get 1 point: for correctly predicting how many goals Ireland would score.
    • If the final score is 1-0 Sweden, you get no points at all.


    (I thought about adding a point for getting the margin of victory correct and that could be added if people like the idea – comment on it before 5pm if you do, or if there are any other suggestions)

    Completely forgot that the other game in our group was yesterday, so we missed a chance to predict that.

    Today: Ireland 0-1 Belgium.
