42 players have submitted their predictions ahead of the first match from the knockout stage. The only player missing from those who took part in the previous round is the overall leader JBO:

Switzerland v Poland
5 players have gone for a Switzerland win, 13 players have gone for a draw (in normal time) and 24 players have backed Poland to win. 10 players have gone for a 1-0 Poland win, 9 have gone for 2-0 and five players have gone for them to win 2-1. Both the 1-0 and 2-1 Switzerland wins have been chosen twice each, whilst one player has backed them for a 2-0 win. 8 players have gone for a 1-1 draw (four of whom have gambled on Switzerland progressing to the quarter-finals and one has gone for Poland, whilst the other three have not gambled). There are also four players who have gone for it to finish 0-0 (only one of whom has gambled – and they have gone for Poland to progress). There is only a single uber-max predictions for this match: one player has gone for a 2-2 draw (without a gamble).

neilwatson could score double points here, if Switzerland win 2-0, whilst U.R.Correct would get a double uber-max if it finishes 2-2.

Cissy Fairfax, clm2071, Darren Lethem, dtcdtcdtc, jake1981, MinkyJoe, topgooner100 and WoodsMonk all went for a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes between Switzerland and Poland. bradybrady, InTheLoop, Janielovesyou, U.R.Correct and yakutz also went for a draw

clm2071, jake1981, MinkyJoe and topgooner100 have gambled half their points on a Switzerland win, whilst WoodsMonk and yakutz have gone for Poland to progress. The other players have not gambled.

Brain fart


Wales 2-0 Northern Ireland
Croatia 3-2 Portugal
France 0-0 Republic Of Ireland
Germany 1-0 Slovakia
Hungary 0-1 Belgium
Italy 2-1 Spain
England 1-0 Iceland

WoodsMonk was the only player to go for a 1-1 draw between Switzerland and Poland and successfully gamble on Poland progressing and so scores 15 points. yakutz was the only other player to go for a draw and gamble on Poland and scores 6 points.

Cissy Fairfax, Darren Lethem and dtcdtcdtc aslo got the 1-1 draw spot on but did not gamble any of their 10 points.

bradybrady, InTheLoop, Janielovesyou and U.R.Correct went for a draw without a gamble and so score 4 points each.

clm2071, jake1981, MinkyJoe and topgooner100 went for the 1-1 draw but gambled on a Switzerland win and so only score 5 points each.


Overall, the gamble is enough for Cissy Fairfax to regain the lead:

For the second match from the Round of 16 (and now including JBO's predictions):

Wales v Northern Ireland
38 of us have gone for Wales to win, whilst the other 5 players have gone for extra-time being required. The 2-0 Wales win is the most popular prediction as 15 players have gone for that. A further 9 players have gone for a 1-0 win, 8 have gone for 2-1 and one player has gone for them to win 3-0. Two players have gone for it to be goalless after 90 minutes (with one of those players gambling on Wales to progress, whilst the other player has not gambled). Two players have gone for a 1-1 draw (with both teams being gambled on once). Five of the 6 uber-max predictions are for a 3-1 Wales win, whilst one player has gone for a 2-2 draw (with a gamble on Wales).

Two players could benefit from the double points bonus in this match: eugenespeed for a 2-2 draw or Xavier Quebeck for a 3-0 Wales win.

bradybrady, charlieparr, Cissy Fairfax, DimSum, dtcdtcdtc, InTheLoop, lauro, Terrence Chant and Thebenster each went for Wales to beat Northern Ireland 1-0. There were 29 other players scoring points from this match.

For the third and final match today:

Croatia v Portugal
We have 26 players going for Croatia to win this, whilst 15 players have gone for a draw and 2 players have gone for a Portugal win in 90 minutes. There are 14 players going for a 2-1 Croatia win, whereas both the 1-0 and 2-0 wins have been chosen twice. 10 players have gone for a 1-1 draw (with both teams being gambled on three times and four players not taking the gamble). Both players going for a Portugal win have gone for 2-1. We have 13 uber-max predictions with 6 players going for a 3-2 Croatia win and five going for a 2-2 draw (both sides have 2 players gambling on them to progress and one player has not gambled). There are also two players going for a 3-1 Croatia win.

No-one can gain double points from this match.

No-one has gone for Croatia and Portugal to be goalless after 90 minutes. beth84, familyguy8904, Hutchy_Muse, MinkyJoe and willrelf92 have all gone for a draw and gambled on Croatia, whilst clm2071, eugenespeed, Hibs-kid-2007, lauro and Terrence Chant have each gambled on Portugal progressing. Chris MacL, DimSum, dtcdtcdtc, InTheLoop and taurus_67 did not gamble so can watch extra-time safe in the knowledge that they will definitely score 4 points.

clm2071, eugenespeed, Hibs-kid-2007, lauro and Terrence Chant each scored 6 points courtesy of predicting a draw between Croatia and Portugal and successfully gambling on Portugal eventually triumphing.

Chris MacL, DimSum, dtcdtcdtc, InTheLoop and taurus_67 did not gamble and so score 4 points each.

beth84, familyguy8904, Hutchy_Muse, MinkyJoe and willrelf92 scored 2 points each courtesy of predicting a draw but failing with their gamble on Croatia progressing.

Great work Dim - well done mate 👌🏻

Is anybody else not seeing the last message or messages ? I have had to post this to read them. The last message it was showing me was TCs from last night. Post 295

And I still can't see anything past TC's post

It has been happening to me for a few days - each time I have posted a write-up. Sometimes the main Sports:Forum Competitions page shows that my post is registering as the last update (even if I can't see it when I go back into the thread), other times it makes it look as though I have not posted a write up at all. At least it tells me when I make a duplicate post

So a DS problem and not just me. That's good. I think
