41 players have submitted their predictions ahead of the first set of games from the final round of fixtures in the Group Stages:

Group A
Romania v Albania
33 players have gone for a Romania win, 6 have gone for a draw and 2 players have gone for Albania to win. 12 players have gone for Romania to win 2-0, 10 have gone for 1-0, 6 for 2-1 and two players have tipped them for a 3-0 win. There are four players going for a 1-1 draw and two going for a goalless draw. Both the 1-0 and 2-1 Albania wins have been chosen once each. Two of the 3 uber-max predictions are for a 3-1 Romania win and the other player has gone for them to win 3-2.

Three players could get a double points bonus: WoodsMonk (if Albania win 1-0), taurus_67 (2-1 Albania) or dtcdtcdtc (for a 3-2 Romania win)

Switzerland v France
33 players have gone for France to win and the other 8 players have gone for a draw. The 2-0 France win is the most popular prediction here as 16 of us have gone for that. A further 8 players have gone for a 2-1 win and 6 players have gone for a 1-0 win. 7 of the players going for a draw have gone for 1-1 and one player has gone for 0-0. There are three players going for an uber-max and they have each gone for France to win 3-1.

Bradybrady is the only player who could get a double points bonus – if this match finishes goalless.

Eugenespeed wins round 2, with the help of the first double point bonus (on the only uber-max of the tournament so far). His total for the round of 38 points included 4 normal maxes (the England and Italy wins and the draws involving Iceland and Romania)\ as well as his double uber from the Croatia-Czech Rep draw. He managed more exacts than any other player.

Apple_Crumble, Cissy Fairfax, Cuishla, eugenespeed, Janielovesyou, neilwatson and taurus_67 all gained points in 7 of the 12 matches this round

Overall, Eugene took over at the top with an 11 point lead over Cissy Fairfax and first round leader JBO. The gap between 1st and 2nd is the same as teh gap between 2nd and 23rd - the double point bonus has made a very big difference to what is a very close competition otherwise. Eugene was also the highest climber (18 places), whilst yakutz (who maxed the first 4 matches of the round) climbed 15 places to 12th.

It is not, however, just the double points bonus that is responsible for Eugene's lead - he is the only player with 8 exacts so far (7 maxes and an uber) from the first 2 rounds

Apple_Crumble has gained points from the most matches in the opening 2 rounds - scoring in 15 of the 24 matches.

(Obviously this is a little behind the in-play table which has started to include round 3 points and group runner-up bonuses).

France's 2-0 win over Albania has collectively generated the most exacts (18) and the most points (142) of the tournament so far. Three other matches also scored at least 100 points (England, Spain and Italy). Northern Ireland's defeat of Ukraine is the only duck egg of the competition so far.

What was the double uber game I managed to get right?

I reckon it was you throwing firecrackers on the pitch to get a bit more added time

Seriously though, I think it's a good rule actually - basically you've collected at 14/1 for the 2-2, instead of 5/1 for a common or garden 1-0 for instance....it's more reflective of proper odds you'd get in the bookies 👍🏻

That's because it was in round 3, the table I posted today only goes up to the end of round 2. Dim has accounted for it in the 'in play' table as post #204

Tonight it is Group B's turn to conclude:

Russia v Wales
This match has the most players going for a draw of any of the fixtures this round, with 20. There are also 7 players going for a Russia win and 15 going for Wales to win. There are 15 players going for a 1-1 draw and three predicting a goalless draw. 8 players have gone for Wales to win 2-1 and 6 have gone for 1-0. We have four players tipping Russia to win 2-1 and two going for a 1-0 win. Four players have gone for an uber-max here: two have gone for a 2-2 draw, whilst the 3-1 win for either side has been chosen once.

If either team wins 3-1 then a player will get a double uber: tonypennys if Wales are the winners or U.R.Correct if Russia win.

Slovakia v England
We have 1 players backing Slovakia to win and 7 players going for a draw, whilst 34 of us have gone for an England win. There are 14 players going for a 2-0 England win, 10 going for 2-1, four for 1-0 and three players have gone for them to win 3-0. Four of the players going for a draw have gone for 1-1 and two have gone for 0-0. The only player backing Slovakia has gone for a 2-1 win. Three of the 4 ubers are for a 3-1 England win, whilst one player has gone for a 2-2 draw.

Any win for Slovakia will mean double points for Hutchy_Muse, whilst a 2-2 draw would result in Apple_Crumble netting a double uber-max

No-one went for Wales to beat Russia 3-0, but beth84, charlieparr, Chris MacL, Cissy Fairfax, clm2071, Cuishla, eugenespeed, familyguy8904, Hutchy_Muse, Janielovesyou, Realale, taurus_67, tonypennys, topgooner100 and Xavier Quebeck did all pick up 2 points from the match

Cissy Fairfax and U.R.Correct were the only players to go for a goalless draw between England and Slovakia. Apple_Crumble, clm2071, dtcdtcdtc, Partyanimal and Sam_Clarke1 also went for a draw here.

Apple_Crumble, bradybrady, clm2071, DDRickyDD, InTheLoop, Janielovesyou, Sam_Clarke1, U.R.Correct and yakutz were the players who went for England to fill the runner-up spot in Group B and earn themselves an extra 5 points

So far in Round 3 the top scores are:

bradybrady 10
WoodsMonk 10
Cissy Fairfax 9
taurus_67 8
U.R.Correct 7
clm2071 4
Partyanimal 4

No-one has more than one exact, but bradybrady and WoodsMonk both have double points from a max

Cissy Fairfax and taurus_67 are the only players to have scored points in 3 of the 4 matches

Overall, we have a new leader:

Cissy Fairfax 60
eugenespeed 59
bradybrady 55
Apple_Crumble 52
JBO 51
DimSum 50
Janielovesyou 50
WoodsMonk 50
taurus_67 50
charlieparr 49
lauro 49
Terrence Chant 49
yakutz 49

eugenespeed still has the most exacts with 8 (7 maxes and an uber-max), whilst Cissy Fairfax, DimSum and dtcdtcdtc each have 7 maxes

Cissy Fairfax and taurus_67 have gained points from 17 of the 28 matches played so far

After just 2 groups have been completed, bradybrady, InTheLoop, Janielovesyou, Sam_Clarke1, U.R.Correct and yakutz are the only players to have gotten both runners-up correct

The conclusion of Group C is up next:

Northern Ireland v Germany
41 of the 43 predictions are for a Germany win (making them the most popular selection to win their final group match) and the other 2 players have gone for a draw. The 2-0 Germany win is the most popular prediction as 16 players have gone for that. There are also 12 players going for a 3-0 win, three going for 2-1 and one player has gone for them to win 1-0. Both players going for a draw have gone for it to finish 1-1. We have 9 uber-max predictions: both the 3-1 and 4-0 Germany wins have been selected three times, whilst two players have gone for a 5-0 win and one player has gone for 4-1.

A 1-0 Germany win would give JBO a double points max, whilst a 4-1 Germany win would see Hutchy_Muse score a double points uber-max.

Ukraine v Poland
There are 3 players going for Ukraine to win, 9 going for a draw and 31 players have gone for Poland to win. 12 players have backed Poland to win 1-0, 10 have gone for 2-0, three for 2-1 and two players have gone for a 3-0 win. 7 of the players going for a draw have gone for 1-1, whilst all three players tipping Ukraine have gone for them to win 2-1. Three of the 6 uber-max predictions are for a 3-1 Poland win, whilst each of the 2-2 and 3-3 draws and the 3-2 Poland win have been picked once.

Three players could possibly obtain double points here: U.R.Correct (for a 2-2 draw), Sam_Clarke1 (for a 3-2 Poland win) or clm2071 (for a 3-3 draw).

DimbleBurbleby

21-06-2016

JBO gets a double points bonus to score 10 points for predicting Germany would beat Northern Ireland 1-0. 40 other players scored 2 points here.

All Of Me, Apple_Crumble, charlieparr, digiremote, DimbleBurbleby, DimSum, JBO, lauro, Partyanimal, Terrence Chant, willrelf92 and Xavier Quebeck all went for Poland to beat Ukraine 1-0. There were 19 players who scored 2 points here.

Half way through Round 3, the top scores this round are now:

JBO 15
Cissy Fairfax 13
bradybrady 12
WoodsMonk 12
taurus_67 12
Partyanimal 11
Apple_Crumble 9
charlieparr 9
digiremote 9
U.R.Correct 9
Xavier Quebeck 9

For the conclusion of Group D:

Croatia v Spain
We have 2 players going for Croatia to win, 11 going for a draw and 30 players tipping Spain to win. 14 players have gone for Spain to win 2-1, whilst both the 1-0 and 2-0 wins have been picked 6 times. 8 of the players going for a draw have gone for it to finish 1-1. Both of the players going for a Croatia win have gone for 2-1. We have 7 uber-max predictions for this match: both the 2-2 draw and 3-1 Spain win have been selected by three players, whilst one player has gone for a 4-0 win.

Janielovesyou is the only player who could pick up a double points bonus – if Spain win 4-0.

Czech Republic v Turkey
32 players have gone for a Czech Republic win, 10 have gone for a draw and 1 player has backed Turkey to win. The 2-1 Czech Republic win is the most popular prediction here as 13 players have gone for that. A further 6 players have gone for them to win 2-0, five have gone for 1-0 and three players have gone for a 3-0 win. 9 players have gone for a 1-1 draw, whilst the only player tipping Turkey has gone for a 2-1 win. We have 6 uber-max predictions here: three players have gone for a 3-1 Czech win, two have gone for 3-2 and one player has gone for a 2-2 draw.

A Turkey win would score double points for yakutz, whilst dtcdtcdtc would get a double uber if it finishes as a 2-2 draw.

Damn Yakutz!

I thought going for Croatia to beat Spain would make me the only one.

Hats off though, getting both results correct tonight and all four runners up too.
