S4 M31 & M32: The Home Stretch

So we're now into April. A clear run through now to the end of the season. The likelihood of Chelsea being crowned before the month is out. The (high) likelihood of 1, if not 2 clubs being relegated. FA Cup Semis. Happy days. The weather might improve and the whole thing becomes that bit more fun - for the neutral at any rate.

As ever, when too much time has passed since the last blog, I'm not going to rehash stuff that's been covered to death already. I'd just like to add my tuppence to Gerrardgate: Ha!

Glad to have got that out the way. England did pretty well on Friday night (as per the newspaper - obvs didn't watch) and didn't do as well vs Italy at the time of writing - these damned early match reports. Still - I reckon filing it by minute 35 beats even the most phoning-it-in Fleet St journo.

I'm writing this nice and early as I'm off for a bit of sunshine for the next 2 matchdays - so will post the predos now for both games. Can't promise individual reminders though, so the Impossibilifamilee will have to do its thing. Create a phone pyramid or something like in primary school.

'Nuff natter, Let's get statty:

Matchday 30:

This week, 20 people played

Most predicted result: Man City WIN (20/20)

Most disputed result: QPR vs Everton (6-5-9 split)

Highest odds: Steven Daniels (4186/1)

Lowest odds: Feneley (5130/1)

Average odds: 1907/1

Best predictors: Loads of you. See below (7/10)

Worst predictors: Steven Daniels & Tarek Najm (4/10)

Average score: 6.00/10

Best predicted result: Man City WIN (20/20)

Worst predicted results: Swansea, Crystal Palace and (incredibly) Man Utd WINS (1/20). Seriously....only 1 of us (loyal fan Richard Verber) thought Man Utd would get a win at Anfield. The fall from grace never ceases to amaze.

Goal-swing: That'd be the Zaha winner for Palace - 7 players were put out by that goal

Everyone's results:

  

The leaderboard, for those who have played >2/3 available weeks (21/30)

I tell you what - that gap at the top is narrowing. This is where all the drama is - maybe i should organise an auction for the TV rights for this game. I'm not greedy - I'd accept 0.5% of the value of the PL even though I feel this provides a better return of entertainment than that.

So, to the predictions for the next 2 matchdays:

Matchday 31:

Arsenal vs Liverpool

Everton vs Southampton

Leicester vs West Ham

Man Utd vs Aston Villa

Swansea vs Hull

WBA vs QPR

Chelsea vs Stoke

Burnley vs Spurs

Sunderland vs Newcastle

Crystal Palace vs Man City

Matchday 32:

Swansea vs Everton

Southampton vs Hull

Sunderland vs Crystal Palace

Spurs vs Aston Villa

WBA vs Leicester

West Ham vs Stoke

Burnley vs Arsenal

QPR vs Chelsea

Man Utd vs Man City

Liverpool vs Newcastle

Predos in the comments as per usual - or I'll be available on WhatsApp, Facebook and Twitter WiFi permitting.

Good luck guys & try to keep the Easter eggs in single digits!
