Brand New: e-Spurs Writers Prediction League (WPL)

e-Spurs presents a brand new feature for our site - The e-Spurs Writers Prediction League (WPL). We mentioned a few weeks ago an idea we had of running a prediction competition between our writers.

Basically, each week our writers will try to predict that weekends Premier League scores. Here's how it works:

If they predict the winner of the game correctly, but not the overall score, they will receive 1 point. If they predict the overall result correctly, they will receive the maximum 3 points.

So, for example, if they predict Spurs to beat Arsenal 6-0 and the result ended 5-0, they would receive one point for correctly predicting the winner. If they said 6-0 they would get 3 points....and a hangover!

A draw works in the same way - 1 point for predicting a draw but incorrect score and 3 points for being spot on with result.

Here's the first set of prediction from our writers. The table can be found on the 'WPL' tab on the site menu above. Stay tuned to see how our guys get on!

Matt Tumminia 

Reading v Soton
Sorry Reading, can't really see the Blues getting anything out of this. Plus the Saints are on a high from beating Chelsea last weekend. 1-3

Norwich v Swansea
Swansea almost snatched a point in a wild final 20 minutes last time out v Spurs, but I see a win for the Canaries. It'll be close. 2-1

Stoke v Villa
Villa win this, no question. Stoke are in a free-fall of epic proportions. Hopefully they hit rock bottom back in the Championship. 1-2

West Brom v Goons
Is Marton Fulop playing again? No, too bad 1-1

Reds v West Ham
Could both lose please? I say Liverpool wins and West Ham never fill up the Olympic Stadium 3-1

Spurs v Everton
Spurs should win this, even with Defoe missing. Felaini and Pienaar out, it'll be tight though. 2-0

Chelsea v Sunderland
Would like Sunderland to cause an upset, but can't really see it happening. Chelsea too tough for them. Maybe next week, Paulo. 3-0

Newcastle v Fulham
Fulham are on a good roll and Newcastle just got housed by City. Therefore, I'm going with a draw. 2-2

Harry v Wigan
I don't refer to QPR as QPR, I only see it as that self-indulgent pompous jerk known as Harry. He is as good as down. 1-3

United v City
Don't know how United are that good but they just grind out wins. Can't hate on that. I see a grind-fest here. 2-1
