2026/27 Prediction League Rules

[Darlington]

The League is pretty straight forward.

Each week or round there will be a number of fixtures from the premier league to predict the final scores of.
The scoring is simple, A correct result (picking a win, draw or defeat) is worth 10 points. The exact score earns 40 points.

We will also have a number of bonus point games and for this season the maximum will be 4 or 1 each day there are predictions in the round, the minimum will be 2 if there are only games on 1 day. These bonus point games will likely be the TV games and there is a reduced number this year to aid getting the scoring done quicker for me (selfish I know but there we are). Bonus points will be awarded on getting the teams score right and will be on points per goals. So if you predict a team to score nil score and they do you get a bonus point, if you predict 1 goal and it is that will be 2 points and so on. You get this on the bonus game teams whether you get the score exact or not.

The winner each round will be the person with the most points that round including bonus points. If two or more players are level on points then it will be decided on the exact scores first (highest taking it) and then if still level then bonus points (highest taking it). If still level the prize will be shared.

Each round there will be credits for the top three scoring and that will be
1st will get 750,000 credits
2nd will get 500,000 credits and
3rd will get 250,000 credits

At the end of the season there will be credits for where you finish depending on number of entries but last place will get 100,000 and it will rise from there.
Again most points wins and the tie break will be;
1 most correct scores
2 most bonus points
3 Average points per game predicted.
