Footy's predictions
Sat 25 Oct 2008
12:00pm Everton 0-2 Man Utd (Away win)
12:45pm Sunderland 2-0 Newcastle (Home win)
3:00pm WBA 0-1 Hull (Away win)
5:30pm Blackburn 2-0 M'boro (Home win)

Sun 26 Oct 2008
1:30pm Chelsea 0-0 Liverpool (Draw)
3:00pm Man City 4-0 Stoke (Home win)
3:00pm Tottenham 2-3 Bolton (Away win)
3:00pm Wigan 0-2 Villa (Away win)
3:00pm Wigan 3-2 Newcastle (Home win)
4:00pm West Ham 2-4 Arsenal (Away win)
5:00pm Portsmouth 2-0 Fulham (Home win)

How did we do?

Sat 04 Oct 2008
1. Blackburn: 0 Man Utd: 2 (Me - spot on)
2. Sunderland: 1 Arsenal: 1 (Both wrong)
3. WBA: 1 Fulham: 0 (Both wrong)
4. Wigan: 0 M'boro: 1 (Both wrong)

7:16 PM, Sun 05 Oct 2008
1. Chelsea: 2 Villa: 0 (Lawro - correct result)
2. Everton: 2 Newcastle: 2 (Both wrong)
3. Man City: 2 Liverpool: 3 (Me - correct result)
4. Portsmouth: 2 Stoke: 1 (Both correct result)
5. Tottenham: 0 Hull: 1 (Me spot on!)
6. West Ham: 1 Bolton: 3 (Both wrong)

Footy: 4 out of 10 correct results, 2 spot on!
Lawro: 2 out of 10 correct results

Better off with a flip of a coin! But no - it would need three sides so I beat the monkey with a three sided coin; home win, draw or away win. He would have got 3.34 results correct.

Lawro's Prediction for comparison

In full here.

Sat 04 Oct 2008
1. 3:00pm Blackburn 2-2 Man Utd - major difference!
2. 3:00pm Sunderland 0-2 Arsenal (Away win)
3. 3:00pm WBA 1-1 Fulham (Draw)
4. 3:00pm Wigan 2-1 M'boro (Home win)

Sun 05 Oct 2008
1. 3:00pm Chelsea 2-1 Villa - major difference!
2. 3:00pm Everton 2-0 Newcastle (Home win)
3. 3:00pm Man City 1-1 Liverpool - major difference!
4. 3:00pm Portsmouth 2-0 Stoke (Home win)
5. 3:00pm Tottenham 2-0 Hull - major difference!
6. 3:00pm West Ham 2-0 Bolton (Home win)

Hmm, interesting, a few major differences of opinion. His predictions were done Thursday so after the Champions League matches. Chelsea had a few injuries so Mark's prediction seems optimistic for blues fans. And both Manchester teams drawing is different. So who will be more accurate Footy or Lawro?
